The iPhone 14 Plus and iPhone 14 Pro Max are heavy and not the most comfortable iPhones to hold. The ring holder case is a good option if you want to protect your iPhone from drops. A textured edge will never lock on your finger as well as an actual ring/grip at the back.
Here are some cases you should look at to protect your iPhone from dropping.
1. AICase silicone magnetic case – Editor’s choice
The AICase silicone magnetic case is made from a liquid silicone rubber material, which in my opinion, feels better than silicone as it offers a soft touch. The inside has a microfiber lining that prevents the back glass from scratching. A swipe with a damp rag can easily wipe off the dust and dirt of the case.
The front edges are raised to protect the screen, and the camera cutout edges are also raised to protect the lenses. On the back, the case houses 36 pieces of built-in N52 Magnets. This makes the ring holder detachable as it connects to the case through a magnetic connection. These magnets also enable compatibility with MagSafe accessories and charging.
Pros
- Liquid silicone material
- 36 built-in pieces of N52 magnets, which enable MagSafe accessory compatibility
- Wireless charging
- Detachable ring holder
Cons
- No significant cons

2. Hython ring stand case – Minimal design
The Hython case is made from high-quality rubber soft to the touch and features a shiny and attractive look. The case inside is lined with soft velvet to protect the back from scratches. It is also easy to clean. Your iPhone’s screen and camera are protected due to the raised lips. All of these lead to shockproof cushioning that protects your device during drops.
Finally, the ring holder is built into the case and can be folded 180 degrees, and rotates 360 degrees. The ring also functions as a kickstand and aids in attaching your iPhone to a magnetic car mount. Also, the case is available in eight color options, so you can pick a case that matches the color of your iPhone.
Pros
- Made from high-quality rubber
- Velvet padding on the inner side
- Shockproof cushioning
- Ring holder functions as a kickstand and magnetic car mount
Cons
- Non-detachable ring holder
- Not compatible with wireless charging

3. COOLQO case – Military-grade protection
The materials of the COOLQO case come from Germany and feature properties that prevent the case from yellowing. It is a hybrid hard polycarbonate case paired with soft thermoplastic Polyurethane. The case has two tempered glass screen protectors and two camera lens protectors.
Since the case is STD-810G Military Standard certified, it can protect your device from high drops of up to 14 feet. The edges of the case on the front are raised by 1.5mm and 0.5mm, and the case also overlays on the bezel of your iPhone to protect it from scratches, drops, etc.
The ring holder on the back of the case is detachable as it connects magnetically. It is a great feature and won’t intrude on the wireless charging process. The ring holder also functions as a kickstand, offers 180 degrees of adjustability, and can rotate 360 degrees.
Pros
- Build features hard PC and soft TPU
- 2 Screen protectors and 2 camera lens protectors

4. JAKPAK wallet case – Stores cards and cash
There are multiple features in the JAKPAK case. The outer case is made from PU leather, which mimics full-grain leather. The inner case is made out of TPU. This wallet case can hold three cards and some cash. The case features a snap-fastener for card security and RFID blocking to prevent physical cards from being lost.
The raised edges of the inner case protect your screen from scratches and drops. The wallet on the back also contributes to the protection and will prevent the back glass from shattering. Also, the ring holder doubles as a kickstand and can rotate 360 degrees, facilitating adjustability and providing great viewing angles.
Pros
- PU leather build
- Wallet case that can house 3 cards
- RFID blocking to keep cards data safe

5. SQM carbon fiber – Hybrid transparent case
The SQM Cabon fiber case is a bumper case that lets you flaunt your iPhone without worrying about protection. The back of the case is built from high-grade, anti-scratch, and anti-fingerprint transparent hard polycarbonate material. It ensures the case doesn’t yellow. The bumper sides are made from soft TPU, which features unique shock protection while maintaining a smooth in-hand feel.
The case edges are raised on the screen and the camera module to ensure that they do not scratch when you lay them flat on the table. Carbon fiber finishing is present on the bumper but is quite minimal. The ring stand rotates 360 degrees, and since it functions as a kickstand, the viewing angles are adjustable too.
Pros
- Hard PC transparent back
- No yellowing issue
- Ring stand doubles as a kickstand
Cons
- Non-detachable ring holder
- Not compatible with wireless charging

6. Oterkin case with a screen protector – Rugged build
If you tend to drop your iPhone frequently, a rugged case might be the perfect fit. And if you want a rugged case with a ring holder, the Oterkin case is the right choice. It exceeds 10ft of military drop protection. The credit for this goes to the hard polycarbonate back and shock-absorbing corners.
I like the attention to detail paid by the designers of the case, as the frame is made out of a soft material that feels great in hand. The case’s front and back edges are raised to protect the screen and camera. You also get two 9H tempered glass screen protectors in the box.
The ring holder is not detachable. However, it can rotate 360 degrees, so you can adjust it as you like when holding the iPhone. It also functions as a kickstand and provides great viewing angles, given its adjustability.
Pros
- 10ft Military drop protection
- Hard PC back with shock-absorbing corners
- Comes with 2 9H screen protectors in the box
- Ring holder doubles as a kickstand
Cons
- Non-detachable ring holder
- Not compatible with wireless charging

8. Inbeage – Multipurpose case
The Inbeage case is made from silicone and looks very familiar to Apple’s silicone cases. On the inside, the case features a soft microfiber lining to protect the back glass from scratches. It comes with an anti-smudge nano-coating, which is a godsend for users with sweaty hands.
While the case does have raised edges to protect the screen and the camera, the box also contains a screen protector and an HD camera lens protector. Inbeage takes the saying “the more, the merrier” very seriously, as the box also includes a hand strap of the same shade as the case, which can be attached through the lanyard ports at the side of the case.
Finally, the ring holder rotates 360 degrees, doubles as a kickstand, and attaches to a magnetic car mount as it features an in-built metal plate. However, since the ring holder is not detachable, you miss out on MagSafe compatibility.
Pros
- Silicone build and microfiber lining
- Screen protector and camera lens protector included in the box
- Hand strap included
- Ring holder that doubles as a kickstand
Cons
- Non-detachable ring holder
- Not compatible with wireless charging

9. Silverback – Hybrid clear case
From the people I’ve met who use an iPhone, there’s a set that likes to stick to one color whenever they upgrade and the other set that will pick any color that appeals the most to them. No matter which category you fall into, the Silverback case will let you flaunt your iPhone’s color without compromising on protection.
The TPU case corners feature soft air cushions to absorb shock if you drop your device. In addition, the case has raised edges around the screen and the camera to prevent drops. The back of the case resists scratches. So the case ages better, but it will yellow over time.
The ring stand holder is now 360 degrees adjustable and doubles as a kickstand. As the center of the ring holder is magnetic, it works well with magnetic mounts. It is useful if you use your iPhone for GPS navigation in your car.
Pros
- Transparent TPU case with air cushions
- Scratch resistant back
- Ring holder functions as a kickstand and magnetic car mount
Cons
- Non-detachable ring holder
- Not compatible with wireless charging
- Yellowing issue
