Find Your Exact Phone Model (So You Pick the Right Case)

Not sure which iPhone or phone model you have? No problem! Picking the right phone case starts with knowing your exact model. This guide will help you identify your phone in just a few simple steps.

⚑ Quick Tip: Different iPhone models have different sizes, camera layouts, and button placementsβ€”even if they look similar. Using the wrong case can block buttons, cameras, or ports, so it's important to get it right!

How to Find Your iPhone Model

There are two easy ways to identify your exact iPhone model:

1Check Your iPhone Settings

This is the fastest and most accurate method:

  1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone
  2. Tap General
  3. Tap About
  4. Look for Model Name (e.g., "iPhone 17 Pro Max")

You'll see your exact model name listed at the top of the About screen.

2Identify by Physical Features

You can also identify your iPhone by its physical characteristics:

  • Screen size: Measure diagonally from corner to corner
  • Camera layout: Single, dual, or triple camera? Square or vertical?
  • Home button: Does it have a physical home button or Face ID?
  • Notch or Dynamic Island: What does the top of the screen look like?
  • Action button: Does it have an Action button or traditional mute switch?
