For weeks, the iPhone 14 Plus Silicone Case with MagSafe in Elderberry (MPT93ZE/A) has been my daily companion. This review aims to provide a detailed account of my experience, covering its design, functionality, and overall performance. I’ve put this case through the paces, from everyday wear and tear to accidental drops (don’t worry, nothing major!), to offer an honest assessment.

The Elderberry color is a rich, deep purple that’s less saturated than some might expect. It’s a sophisticated shade that ages well, not showing scratches or scuffs easily. The soft-touch silicone provides a reassuring grip, preventing accidental slips. The MagSafe compatibility is a significant advantage, allowing seamless attachment of MagSafe accessories like chargers and wallets. The case fits snugly around the iPhone 14 Plus, protecting it without adding excessive bulk. The button covers are responsive and easy to press, a critical detail often overlooked in case reviews.

In terms of protection, the silicone case has proven to be surprisingly robust. It’s absorbed minor impacts from drops onto various surfaces (carpet, wood floor), with no damage to my phone. The raised lip around the screen provides adequate protection against scratches when the phone is laid face down. The MagSafe functionality worked flawlessly with all my MagSafe accessories. The charging speeds were consistent with Apple’s MagSafe charger and there were no issues with connection interruptions.

One minor issue I encountered was a slight discoloration around the edges after prolonged use. It’s not extremely noticeable, but it’s something to be aware of. The case also picked up some lint over time, which is expected with a silicone material, although regular wiping helps maintain its appearance. Overall, though, its performance far outweighs this minor inconvenience.

Pros:

• Excellent grip and protection
• Stylish and sophisticated Elderberry color
• Seamless MagSafe compatibility
• Snug fit without adding excessive bulk
• Responsive button covers

Cons:

• Slight discoloration around the edges after prolonged use
• Tendency to attract lint

The iPhone 14 Plus Silicone Case with MagSafe (MPT93ZE/A) in Elderberry provides a great balance of style, protection, and functionality. While minor drawbacks exist concerning discoloration and lint attraction, the overall performance, design, and MagSafe compatibility make it a strong contender for the best iPhone 14 Plus case. I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a reliable and attractive case for their iPhone 14 Plus.
