Apple’s flagship phone of 2022, the iPhone 14, featured the longest battery life yet available on an iPhone, a super-fast A15 Bionic chip and an Action mode for video. Winning positive reviews for its value for money, the iPhone 14 remains a bargain even as the iPhone 15 emerges to take the stores by storm. It’s an even better deal if you buy it refurbished. Now that more than a year has passed since its release, you can score some awesome deals on a refurbished iPhone 14 or iPhone 14 Plus.

The iPhone 14 range actually consists of four smartphones: the standard model, the Plus, the Pro and the Pro Max. Despite differences in features like the cameras and the ‘Dynamic Island’ display, the four models have a lot of common ground in what they do well. And you can buy all of them, from the iPhone 14 Pro Max to the iPhone 14 Plus, as refurbished models.

What does the iPhone 14 do well? It features a vibrant 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR display, nine hours and 28 minutes of battery life when 5G web surfing, excellent cameras with a larger sensor on the 12MP wide lens, and Action mode to keep your video steady while you’re in motion. On top of that, it comes in calm and alluring colours like blue, purple, midnight and starlight.

But it’s not just about the phone itself. Once you’ve found a terrific deal on an iPhone 14 or a refurbished iPhone 14 Plus, it’s also important to get your hands on the right accessories.

The word “accessories” may bring to mind optional extras, but there are some things you don’t want to go without, like a phone case. Still, you may have questions you need to ask to make sure you get the right kind of accessories. Does an iPhone 14 Pro Max case fit an iPhone 14 Plus? Do magnetic phone holders damage iPhones?

The Importance of a Phone Case

If you want to give your new iPhone the very best in protection and care, you need a phone case for it. But will an existing phone case cut it, or do you have to buy a new one? Does an iPhone 14 Pro Max case fit an iPhone 14 Plus? What are the main benefits of a phone case, anyway?

Protection

This is probably the most important reason to invest in a case. Dropping your phone once is all it takes to crack an unprotected screen into pieces. Even a slim shock-absorbent case can save you from this disaster.

Keep your phone scratch-free

Sometimes even a little thing like your car keys in your pocket can put scratches all over the screen of your smartphone. A good phone case protects it from this fate.

Better grip

One way that smartphone cases protect your phone is by making it less likely to drop out of your hand in the first place. Modern-day smartphones have sleek designs that are popular but, unfortunately, can also make them a bit slippery. Cases are easier to hold onto, especially when they’re made from leather or plastic.

What about finding the right type of case for your phone model? Do magnetic phone holders damage an iPhone? Does an iPhone 14 Pro Max case fit an iPhone 14 Plus? What about a Pro Max case on a standard phone?

Magnetic phone holders don’t damage iPhones as the magnetisation is only strong enough to hold your iPhone in place, not to cause any internal harm to it. After all, there are magnets inside iPhones. In fact, Apple has even released the MagSafe charging case, which uses magnets for precise alignment to help create an even more secure connection for wireless charging. 

An iPhone 14 Pro Max case doesn’t fit an iPhone 14 Plus because although both have the same size screen, their camera panels are in different places. It’s the same scenario with a Plus case unable to fit the Pro Max, and you also won’t be able to fit an iPhone 13 case on the 14 model. 

Apple Headphones vs Air Pods

When it comes to buying headphones for your refurbished iPhone 14 Plus, you have plenty of options to choose from. Apple has released six different generations of Air Pods since 2016 across three different lineups, and they integrate easily and function well with other devices in the Apple ecosystem. iPhones also work with other brands of headphones, so it’s up to you which brand you choose.

Depending on the model, Air Pods can last for up to 20 hours of listening on a single charge and include features like Adaptive Audio, which adjusts noise control to suit the environment you’re in. 

Other iPhone 14 Accessories

What other accessories can you pick up for your refurbished iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Pro, Plus or Pro Max? Some other useful Apple accessories include:

Splitter cables

Splitter cables allow you to connect multiple devices at the same time. If you need to charge your refurbished iPhone 14 Plus while also charging another device, they feature two side-by-side ports to make it easy for you.

Screen protectors

Apple’s easy-to-apply tempered glass screen protectors safeguard your iPhone’s screen not only from smashes and scratches but from smudges, stains and fingerprints too.

Apple AirTag

If you’re prone to losing your iPhone, an Apple AirTag can save you some headaches. Just attach one of these miniature tracking tools to your backpack, purse, keychain etc., and you can use it to make your device play a tune that leads you to it.
