In major tech news this month, Apple dropped the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro, the latest and greatest upgrade to the tech giant's smartphone. While the phone is, of course, designed to be durable enough on its own, it's always smart to snag a new iPhone case to protect your device, as well as add some personality and style to your everyday tech. Our experts at the Good Housekeeping Institute have tested cases from brands like OtterBox, Case-Mate, Apple and more, and we're excited to see a handful of the same cases in new versions to match.
If you're taking advantage of Apple Prime Day deals or adding the iPhone to your holiday wishlist, might as well add a fresh case to boot. Or, if you're shopping for someone who recently upgraded their phone, a case makes an excellent tech gift. There's plenty of cases to choose from — like those with MagSafe compatibility to ones with extra protection. To narrow down the search, we rounded up our top picks for the best iPhone 15 cases, ahead. That includes new iterations of our GH Institute's top-tested Lab picks that impressed during drop tests (!) and water-resistance evaluations.
(Note that the prices listed are all for iPhone 15 models, and pricing may change if you're shopping for an iPhone 15 Plus or iPhone Pro model.)
Silicone iPhone 15 Case
Ranked as our best overall iPhone case based on Lab testing, this Apple case is made from a smooth, soft silicone material and lined with microfiber. We found it easy to snap on and off phones — especially great since the brand released the simple yet classic case in eight different colors.
Ultra Hybrid Clear iPhone 15 Case
For under $20, this clear case helps keep your phone protected and has MagSafe and wireless charging compatibility. The single layer design doesn't offer as much protection as some of the other cases on our list, but it should keep your device protected from everyday bumps and scratches.
FineWoven iPhone 15 Case
Veering toward a more eco-friendly take, this suede-like iPhone case is Apple's revamp of its old leather case. The brand claims the micro-twill fabric is crafted from recycled content in an effort to support their pledge toward carbon neutrality.
Soap Bubble iPhone 15 Case
Let the color of your iPhone 15 shine through with the addition of this clear iridescent swirl design. It's still MagSafe compatible, as well as chargeable with other wireless chargers. Plus, the funky case features an antimicrobial Micropel coating that the brand claims to help slow the spread of bacteria.
Kimberly iPhone 15 Case
Bandolier offers a hands-free experience with this wallet-style case that comes with a crossbody strap. Stash cards and cash in the attached wallet (which, unfortunately, eliminates MagSafe and wireless charging compatibility) and leave your phone hanging within arm's reach. The strap is adjustable and detachable, so you can fit the case to your needs.
Defender Series iPhone 15 Case
We tested OtterBox's renowned "indestructible" reputation, and the Defender series proved to be durable and scratch resistant. Giving some peace of mind over brand new iPhones, the multi-layer design adds protection and comes with a belt clip if you're looking to keep your phone accessible. It comes in a handful of neutral colors, so you can find one that suits your style.
Wallet Slayer Vol. 2 iPhone 15 Case
Complete with a wallet opening, this Smartish keeps cards and cash safe. The feature doubles as a kickstand if you want to prop up your phone while streaming shows or gaming. One caveat: The wallet design makes the phone incompatible for MagSafe and wireless charging, but it's a convenient pick if you like to go out and about without worrying about a wallet.
Custom iPhone 15 Impact Case
Add some personality to your tech thanks to Casetify's plethora of customizable options. If you opt to add your initials or full name on the case, there are dozens of color, text, font and placement options at your choosing. Plus, the brand claims the case offers drop protection of up to 8.2 feet, and the cases are MagSafe and wireless charging compatible.
