Card Holder case iPhone 14

Hello, Many years ago when I purchased my first iPhone, I got a great case from OTTERBOX. It had a compartment in the back to hold some credit cards, and all the ports were secured with rubber coverings. Well, I can't find a similar case for the iPhone 14. The best I was able to do is to get a nice case that has a card holder, and I've purchased (from AMazon) a "Lightning Charger Port Protector" which are OK but they're difficult to get in and out. I'd love to find a case similar to that first OTTERBOX which (a) had a wallet compartment for cards and (b) had rubber coverings for the ports (particularly the lightning port). Anyone have a suggestion? THANKS!

iPhone 14, iOS 17

You don’t want to put cards in a case on the phone. iPhones with MagSafe charging have a magnet inside the back, and it can erase the mag stripe on cards.

All current and recent iPhones, from the iPhone 12 on, are able to charge wirelessly. So yes, your iPhone 14 can certainly charge wirelessly.

I presume you contacted Otterbox and asked if they make a similar case for your current iPhone?

The magnets in the phone (and case) aren't strong enough to do that. If they were, Apple wouldn't be selling a MagSafe wallet that attaches to the phone with magnets.
