Why the iPhone 14 Max Translucent Aluminum Alloy Button Case Is Essential for Magnetic-Charging Devotees and Bundle Hunters
Picture peeling the plastic off a new case, snapping it onto your iPhone 14 Plus (the 6.7-inch model also listed as the iPhone 14 Max), and realizing the box already holds everything else you were about to order separately: 3 tempered glass screen protectors and 3 camera lens protectors. This translucent matte black case is a complete protection kit in one purchase. A built-in magnet ring locks onto magnetic chargers with satisfying authority, genuine aluminum alloy buttons deliver crisp mechanical clicks, and a 360-degree rugged body has passed military-style drop testing to 6 ft / 1.8 m.
This is the best iPhone 14 Plus magnetic case for anyone who wants flagship protection without buying accessories piecemeal. It is built for wireless-charging devotees, commuters, students hard on their phones, value shoppers who do the math on bundles, and gift-givers who want one box that covers everything. Welcome to the Gorilla Family.
Key Features
- Translucent matte black finish: shows a ghosted outline of the Apple logo while hiding fingerprints and scratches.
- Premium materials: translucent matte polycarbonate back, shock-absorbing TPU bumper, and machined aluminum alloy button caps.
- Case type: slim magnetic snap-on case with full 360-degree body coverage and reinforced corners.
- Built-in magnet ring: aligns perfectly with magnetic chargers and accessories, locking into place with strong adsorption that holds through rotation.
- Aluminum alloy buttons: sensitive, responsive metal button covers that press like the bare phone — no mushy plastic feel.
- Screen protection: a 1.5 mm raised lip around the display plus 3 included tempered glass screen protectors with high touch sensitivity.
- Camera protection: a 1.5 mm raised camera lip plus 3 included camera lens protectors guarding against cracks and scratches.
- Military-grade drop testing: reinforced corners absorb angled impacts; the case passed drop tests up to 6 ft / 1.8 m.
- Charging compatibility: the magnet ring makes MagSafe-style wireless charging faster and easier, and standard Qi pads work too.
- Zero-fingerprint coating: a nano oleophobic layer repels fingerprints, watermarks, oil, and dust so the matte finish stays fresh.
- Compatibility: designed for the iPhone 14 Plus / iPhone 14 Max (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 Matte Polycarbonate and Aluminum Alloy Actually Feel Like
The translucent back panel is matte polycarbonate — the impact-resistant plastic used in bike helmets and aircraft cockpit windows — sandblasted to a frosted texture that feels like fine paper rather than slick plastic. Under it sits the magnet ring, fully embedded so the back stays perfectly flat.
The perimeter bumper is TPU, the flexible shock-absorber found in running shoe soles and hockey puck rims. Its reinforced corners are the crumple zones that earned the 6 ft / 1.8 m military-style drop rating.
Then there are the buttons: actual machined aluminum alloy, the same family of metal used in the phone's own chassis. They transmit a crisp, cold, mechanical click that plastic button covers simply cannot fake. The included screen protectors are 9H tempered glass that feels exactly like your phone's own screen.
Altogether the case weighs about 1.8 oz (50 g) and adds roughly 2.2 mm of thickness — slim enough that the magnet ring still grips chargers firmly through the back.

Step-by-Step Installation Guide
- Clean your iPhone 14 Plus with a microfiber cloth, removing all dust from the screen and camera plateau.
- Apply one tempered glass screen protector first: align it with the earpiece cutout, lay it down from the top, and smooth out bubbles from the center outward.
- Fit one camera lens protector over the rear camera module, pressing gently around each lens ring.
- Seat the top of the phone into the case, then press the bottom corners until the TPU bumper snaps flush all the way around.
- Test the aluminum buttons, plug in a Lightning cable, and set the phone on your magnetic charger to confirm the ring centers and grips correctly.
Troubleshooting and Tips
- Magnet grip feels weaker than expected? Make sure you are using a MagSafe-style magnetic charger or mount — plain Qi pads charge fine but do not engage the magnet ring.
- Bubbles under the screen protector? Lift it with a piece of tape, dust the screen again, and reapply — and remember you have two spares in the box.
- Translucent back looks cloudy on day one? Peel the factory shipping film off the inside of the case — most "cloudiness" complaints are the film, not the case.
- Buttons feel firm initially? The aluminum caps seat into their channels within a few days of use and the click softens to perfection.
- Cleaning the matte finish? Use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid alcohol wipes — they can strip the nano oleophobic coating that keeps fingerprints away.
FAQs
Which phones does this case fit?
It fits the iPhone 14 Plus — the 6.7-inch model released in 2022, also listed as the iPhone 14 Max — only. It does NOT fit the iPhone 14 (6.1-inch), iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 14 Pro Max, iPhone 13 series, or iPhone 15 series.
What comes in the box?
One translucent matte black magnetic case, 3 tempered glass screen protectors, and 3 camera lens protectors — a complete protection kit for every glass surface.
Does it work with MagSafe charging?
Yes — the built-in magnet ring aligns with MagSafe-style chargers and locks on with strong adsorption that holds even when the phone rotates. Standard Qi wireless pads work too.
What is the drop protection rating?
The case passed military-style drop testing up to 6 ft / 1.8 m, with reinforced corners that absorb impacts from any angle.
Does it work with Face ID?
Yes — the front is fully open and the included screen protectors have a precise earpiece and sensor cutout, so Face ID works without recalibration.
Are the buttons and ports accessible?
Yes. The aluminum alloy button caps are highly responsive, and precise cutouts leave the Lightning port, speakers, microphones, and mute switch fully open.
Are the screen protectors case-friendly?
Yes — they are cut to sit inside the case's 1.5 mm raised lip, so the edges never lift or peel against the bumper.
Do the lens protectors affect photo quality?
No — they are optically clear tempered glass with anti-reflective treatment, invisible in photos and videos, including Night mode.
Will the translucent case yellow over time?
The smoke-black tint and matte texture are specifically chosen to resist visible yellowing — unlike crystal-clear glossy cases, this finish keeps its color.
Is there a lanyard or strap attachment?
No — this is a clean slim design without a lanyard hole.
Is it professional enough for work?
Very — translucent matte black with metal buttons reads as understated tech-professional in any meeting.
Is this a good gift?
Excellent — it is a complete protection bundle in one box, so the recipient needs nothing else. Free 30-day returns make it risk-free.
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.
Why are there 3 screen protectors and 3 lens protectors?
Tempered glass is sacrificial by design — it cracks so your screen does not. The spares mean a bad drop or a botched installation never sends you back to the store.
Does the magnet interfere with credit cards?
Keep cards off the back of the case itself; the ring is charger-grade magnetism. In a pocket or bag at normal distance, cards are unaffected.

What Gorilla Family Customers Are Saying
★★★★★
The buttons alone are worth it
I did not expect to care about aluminum buttons until I used them. Crisp, clicky, perfect. The magnet grabs my charging stand hard enough that I can tap the screen without it sliding. Matte black looks stealthy and has zero fingerprints after a month.
— Brandon C., Denver, CO
★★★★★
Whole phone protected for the price of a case
Screen protector went on bubble-free on the second try — good thing there are three. My 14 Plus has hit the pavement outside the tube station twice and there is not a mark on it. The corners clearly do their job.
— Oliver H., London, UK
★★★★★
Survived my warehouse job
Phone fell off a loading dock ledge — call it six feet onto concrete — and landed on a corner. Case scuffed, phone perfect, lens protector did not even crack. The oleophobic coating is real; I wipe it on my jeans and it looks new.
— Tyrell J., Memphis, TN
★★★★★
Bought it for my daughter's first iPhone
Gifted this with a new 14 Plus and everything she needed was in the box — we installed the glass and case together in ten minutes. Six months of high school later the phone is still flawless and she has two spare protectors waiting.
— Janet P., Vancouver, BC, Canada
★★★★½
Great kit, lens protectors take patience
The case and screen glass are superb, and the magnet alignment is genuinely satisfying. My only gripe: lining up the camera lens protector took me three careful tries to get dust-free. Spares saved me. Everything else is five stars.
— Aaron W., Columbus, OH
