The physical compatibility of protective coverings between different iPhone models is frequently a concern for consumers. Specifically, questions arise regarding the interchangeability of accessories designed for the iPhone 13 Pro Max and the iPhone 14 Plus. This concern is rooted in the desire to reuse existing accessories when upgrading devices or to understand compatibility across family members’ devices.
Understanding accessory compatibility is important for economic reasons, preventing unnecessary purchases. Device protection is crucial for maintaining resale value and preventing damage. A history of relatively consistent, though not always identical, dimensions across iPhone models fuels the expectation of some degree of interchangeability, while subtle design changes can often render accessories incompatible.
