This is the brand new iPhone 14 Pro Max and today we have these great cases from Spigen.
We are focusing on the 14 pro Max here but they have cases for the iPhone 14 Pro and
the iPhone 14 Plus as well.
I also have a couple of Spigen accessories too for the iPhone 14 range, which we will
talk about later.
If you invested in an expensive phone like the iPhone 14 Pro Max, it makes sense to get
a decent protective case.. instead of those cheapo Amazon ones right?
This is where today’s sponsors come in.
Tough Armor Magfit for iPhone 14 Pro Max The first one we have here is one of my favourite
Spigen cases when it comes to design and protection.
This is the Spigen Tough Armor MAGFIT case.
This is a beautiful protective case…I believe this model is one of Spigen's most popular
products!
I’ve been reviewing this case since the 12 Pro Max.
They did a great job on the 13 Pro Max last year and now with the 14 Pro Max, they didn’t
disappoint.
Especially now with MagSafe support, it’s such a great case for the iPhone 14 Pro Max!
I use this a lot when I am driving so having a strong magnet is really important for me.
I’d say this case get’s a 9 out of 10 for me.
What would it take for it to get a 10 out of 10?
A couple of minor tweaks.
The first one is just my opinion and PREFERENCE by the way, but the buttons need to be more
tactile on the side.
They look awesome on the iPhone 14 Pro Max, very modern looking…but I think it's important
to be able to be able to tell the difference between volume up and volume down.
Not so much when you’re looking at the phone during the day, but at night when watching
content, or even driving at night…
You might have the phone in a different orientation as well…so being able to quickly tell where
the volume buttons are… for me is super important.
The Tough Armor case has lots of cool features, but it really comes to life… with the kickstand.
This kickstand is such a cool idea….
I really wish more case manufacturers would have this feature in some of their models.
At least for the iPhone 14 Pro Max which is such a big and heavy smartphone.
Watching content is something we all do a lot of these days… and there's nothing worse
than trying to prop the phone up and not have any support to do that..
There are a couple of different ways you could stand the device up, so you get different
viewing angles which is really cool.
This is perfect for those times when you are trying to cook and watch your favourite show
or your favourite youTube channel.
This is a sponsored video so I won’t waste much more of your time, but a thumbs up goes
a long way in getting a small channel like this being discovered on YouTube.
And if you like my stuff, a sub to the channel would be awesome.
I’d really appreciate that.
I am here at least once a week.
The Tough Armor is an awesome case really, great internal protection and despite this
ruggedised look, it’s still fairly slender and light.
I love this opening at the back!
As well as adding a nice aesthetic look to the phone, it’s a fidgeting factor… and
actually helps with the grip, and general handling of the phone.
Can’t recommend this one enough.
Mag Armor This here is the Mag Armor case.
This case has these really cool lines air the back which add a nice texture feel to
it.
It also has MagSafe compatibility and Wireless charging is no issue…
The protection on the camera is something I want to call out because it’s really really
good.
A lot of cases out there look awesome, but then kinda neglect the fact the iPhone 14,
especially the 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max models have this huge camera module.
So great job from Spigen here.
This case also features the Air cushion technology from Spigen, but to be honest with you it’s
not gonna be as protective as the Tough Armor of course, as THIS IS more of a slim case
really.
But with this added grip texture at the back it’s gonna be hard to drop the phone in
the first place.
Liquid Air and Silicone Fit for iPhone 14 Pro Max
Spigen sent me the Liquid Air and Silicone Fit here which look great too.
If you don’t need MagSafe… you can take advantage of this Ultra slim design THAT YOU
GET with the Liquid Air case… without compromising on the grip aspect.
But if you DO use MagSafe Accessories and mounts…
And you still want a thin case… then the silicone case would be a better choice for
you.
My favourite feature of this case is the interior lining.
Super smooth microfibre here to give you that extra protection.
If you are always on the go and keep running out of juice, Spigen also has this 5000 milliamp
portable charger which I think is really cool.
It snaps onto your phone, either directly or with any of the MagFit cases I showed you
here today.
You can also just use your lightning to USB-C cable that came with the iPhone, if you’re
holding the phone for example whilst charging.
This will charge at 7.5W wirelessly instead of the typical 5W that you might get with
other brands.
It weighs 4.8 ounces and it also supports iPhone 12 or 13 models.
I recently went abroad and the hotel room I was at had terrible wall chargers.
Basically you had to be in the room with at least one light ON… for the electricity
to work.
So having something these came in really clutch for that.
Not something most people would use every single day but a great accessory to have nearby.
Also great if you do a lot of gaming and keep running out of battery.
This doesn’t get in the way too much when you have it attached the phone.
It has overheating protection…
AND it’s passthrough so you can charge the battery pack itself whilst charging the phone.
For me as I am travelling a lot for work, it’s a must have accessory.
When it comes to protecting the display…I always recommend a screen protector with the
iPhone.
Or any smartphone for that matter.
The display on the 14 Pro Max is amazing, and despite Apple’s promises about Ceramic
Shield….
These are not immune to scratches or being smashed.
I never used to like them so much but I had a terrible experience recently and dealing
with Insurance is just not a nice experience…
This is Spigen’s GLASS TR, EZ FIT protector….
It comes in a pack of two with a super easy to install kit.
This is 9H real glass material with oleophobic coating… and it fits perfectly along all
the edges and as you can see here, doesn’t impact how the phone feels from a touch and
swiping perspective.
One thing you might be concerned about with the new iPhone 14 Pro or Pro Max…. is the
Dynamic Island.
And the protector has worked perfectly with that.
Either interacting with the dynamic island or simply using FaceID…
behaves exactly the same as without the screen protector.
