Why the iPhone 14 Plus Clear Hard Back Case Is Essential for Design Purists and Serial Droppers
Picture unboxing your iPhone 14 Plus in that perfect Apple blue — then immediately hiding it inside an opaque slab of plastic. This case refuses to make that trade. A crystal clear, anti-yellowing acrylic back shows off your phone's true color, while a frame of premium liquid TPU and PC with a rubber side grips your hand and your pocket. Hidden inside the four corners are seismic airbags drop-tested to 15 ft / 4.5 m, the camera wears an aluminum alloy frame raised 1.6 mm, and even the buttons are independent machined aluminum. Two tempered glass screen protectors come in the box.
Built for design lovers, students, commuters, gift shoppers, and anyone whose phone has a gravity problem, this is the best iPhone 14 Plus clear case for protection without camouflage. The frame comes in Black, Blue, Green, and Red. Welcome to the Gorilla Family.
Key Features
- 4 frame colors: Black, Blue, Green, and Red, each surrounding the crystal clear back panel.
- Premium materials: liquid TPU and PC shell with a rubber side grip and a scratch-resistant clear acrylic back.
- Case type: clear hard-back protective case with metal-accented frame.
- Anti-yellowing back: the acrylic panel resists the UV yellowing that ruins cheap clear cases, keeping your phone's color on display.
- Corner airbag protection: seismic airbags inside all four corners, drop-tested up to 15 ft / 4.5 m.
- Aluminum alloy buttons: independent metal volume and side buttons — 100% accurate, satisfyingly clicky.
- Screen protection: 2-pack of tempered glass protectors included, plus elevated bezels that keep the touchscreen off surfaces.
- Camera protection: an aluminum alloy metal frame raises the lens surround by 1.6 mm for military-level lens defense.
- Charging compatibility: supports both Qi wireless charging and cable charging with the case on; this is not a MagSafe-magnet case, so magnetic accessories will not snap on.
- Grip texture: a unique CD-pattern design adds friction so the big 6.7-inch phone stops slipping.
- Compatibility: designed for the iPhone 14 Plus (2022, 6.7-inch) ONLY. It does NOT fit the iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 14 Pro Max, iPhone 13 series, or iPhone 15 series.
Materials Explained — What Clear Acrylic and Liquid TPU Actually Feel Like
The back panel is rigid clear acrylic — the same optically pure material used in aquarium walls and museum display cases. Unlike soft clear TPU backs that yellow within months, acrylic shrugs off UV and scratches, so the view of your phone stays showroom-fresh.
The frame is liquid TPU bonded to a PC core with a rubberized side: TPU is the shock-eater from running shoe soles and hockey puck rims, PC is the rigid spine from bike helmets, and the rubber side adds the tacky, secure feel of a camera grip.
The metal touches are what you notice daily — aluminum alloy buttons that click like a quality car door, and the 1.6 mm raised aluminum ring standing guard around the camera.
Altogether the case weighs about 2.1 oz (60 g) and adds roughly 2.5 mm of thickness — remarkably slim for something tested to a 15-foot drop.

Real-World Use Cases
- The Design Purist: paid extra for the Product RED finish and intends for people to see it — through scratch-proof acrylic.
- The Serial Dropper: trusts the corner airbags because the phone has already gone off the car roof once this month.
- The Student: slides the phone in and out of a backpack all day; the CD-pattern grip and rubber sides keep hallway fumbles rare.
- The Wireless-Charging Devotee: drops the phone on the bedside pad every night — no case removal, no cables.
- The Gift-Giver: a clear case with two screen protectors included is the safest possible gift — it matches every phone color automatically.
Feature-to-Benefit Mapping
| Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Corner seismic airbags | Drop protection tested to 15 ft / 4.5 m — corners take the hit, not the phone |
| Anti-yellowing acrylic back | Your phone's color stays visible and the case stays clear for years |
| 1.6 mm aluminum camera frame | Military-level lens protection on tables, pavement, and pockets |
| 2 included glass protectors | Screen covered from day one, with a spare — no extra purchase |
| Wireless charging support | Charge on any Qi pad with the case on — no nightly wrestling |
Step-by-Step Installation Guide
- Clean your iPhone 14 Plus with a microfiber cloth — dust trapped under a clear back is visible forever, so be thorough.
- Apply one tempered glass protector: align with the front camera, lay down center-out, smooth out bubbles.
- Seat the top of the phone into the case, aligning the camera with the aluminum frame.
- Press the corners in until the TPU edge snaps flush — you will feel the four airbag corners seat last.
- Test the aluminum buttons, Lightning port, and speakers, then set the phone on a Qi pad to confirm wireless charging.
Troubleshooting and Tips
- Seeing faint rainbow marks under the clear back? That is trapped moisture or oil — remove the case, wipe both surfaces with a dry microfiber cloth, and reinstall.
- Wireless charging slow? Center the phone on the coil; with the case on, off-center placement costs more efficiency than usual.
- Worried about yellowing? The acrylic back resists UV, but the TPU frame appreciates being kept out of week-long direct sunbathing.
- Buttons feel stiff at first? The aluminum buttons seat within a few days of use and keep their click for the life of the case.
- Cleaning the case? Mild soap and water on a soft cloth — never alcohol wipes, which can fog the clear acrylic and dull the frame.
FAQs
Which phones does this case fit?
It fits the iPhone 14 Plus (2022, 6.7-inch) only. It does NOT fit the iPhone 14 (6.1-inch), iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 14 Pro Max, any iPhone 13 model, or the iPhone 15 series.
What comes in the box?
The clear hard-back case plus a 2-pack of tempered glass screen protectors.
Does it support MagSafe or wireless charging?
Qi wireless charging works with the case on, as does cable charging. It is not a MagSafe-magnet case, so snap-on magnetic accessories will not attach.
What is the drop protection rating?
The corner seismic airbags have been drop-tested up to 15 ft / 4.5 m — among the highest ratings in our clear-case lineup.
Will the clear back turn yellow?
No — the back is rigid acrylic, which resists the UV yellowing that plagues soft clear TPU cases. It also resists scratches far better.
Does Face ID still work?
Yes — the front is open and the included protectors are cut for the TrueDepth sensors, so Face ID works normally.
Are the buttons and ports accessible?
Better than accessible — the volume and side buttons are independent aluminum alloy, more precise than most bare-phone presses, and the cutouts keep dust out of the speakers and port.
Do the included screen protectors fit with the case on?
Yes — they tuck inside the elevated bezel, so the edges stay sealed and never lift.
How protected is the camera?
An aluminum alloy frame raises the lens surround 1.6 mm — the cameras float clear of every flat surface, with metal rather than plastic taking any scrape.
Can I attach a lanyard?
This model has no dedicated lanyard hole; the CD-pattern grip and rubber sides are its anti-drop carry features.
Is it professional enough for work?
Completely — clear back plus a Black or Blue frame reads as understated and lets a company-issued phone stay identifiable.
Is this a good gift?
The safest case gift there is: clear matches every phone color, two screen protectors sweeten the box, and free 30-day returns handle sizing.
Does the CD pattern affect clarity?
No — the friction pattern lives on the frame edges, not the clear back, so the view of your phone stays unobstructed.
What is the return policy?
Yes — Gorilla Cases offers free 30-day returns on all iPhone 14 Plus cases. If the case doesn't fit your iPhone 14 Plus or you're not satisfied, contact our team within 30 days for a fast replacement or full refund. No restocking fees.

What Gorilla Family Customers Are Saying
★★★★★
Finally a clear case that stayed clear
Eight months in and the acrylic back looks like day one — my last clear case was banana-yellow by month three. The Blue frame matches my phone perfectly and the aluminum buttons feel premium. Two screen protectors in the box sealed the deal.
— Lauren M., Seattle, WA
★★★★★
15-foot rating, tested accidentally
Phone slid off a second-floor balcony railing onto patio stone. I went down expecting a funeral; the corner airbags had other plans. One scuff on the Black frame, zero damage to the phone. I am a believer.
— Dmitri K., Denver, CO
★★★★★
The camera ring is genius
I set my phone face-up everywhere and the raised aluminum frame means the lenses never touch anything. Wireless charging works perfectly through the case, which my last hybrid case could not manage. The Red frame pops beautifully.
— Sophie A., Melbourne, VIC, Australia
★★★★★
Bought it for my son's first iPhone
He wanted to see the Green; I wanted it to survive seventh grade. The CD-texture grip means he actually holds onto it, and the spare screen protector has already been deployed. Both of us are happy, which never happens.
— Rachel T., Minneapolis, MN
★★★★½
Excellent, with one small quirk
Protection and clarity are top-tier — survived a gravel driveway drop without a mark. My only nitpick: a little moisture got under the back after a rainy bike ride and needed a wipe-down to clear the rainbow marks. Two minutes of effort; otherwise flawless.
— Connor B., Ottawa, ON, Canada
