All the cutouts for the ports and microphones are accurate, and it's made of a thermoplastic urethane material that's lovely to touch. Want a simple, no-frills case without spending a fortune? Cyrill’s UltraColor is the way to go, especially in the Kale color. It's pretty svelte, though the edges can feel a bit slippery. (I prefer the Walnut and Aramid Fibre designs.) You get responsive buttons, a lanyard hole, and a microfiber inner to protect the rear glass. ★ An alternative: Want a magnetic connection but in a different style? The Mous Limitless 5.0 ($60) is similarly great.

The fabric-like texture on the back feels great and looks smart, too. The case itself isn't too showy, but there's a nice hard bumper around the sides with decently raised edges for screen protection. I've been using the bar mount on electric scooters for more than a year and have never had my phone fall out. Pair it with certain mounts, like the company's Universal Bar Mount or Out Front Bike Mount, and you get a more secure attachment point. Peak Design's MagSafe case stands out because of the additional square hole in the center. You can enjoy using MagSafe portable battery packs, phone grips, docks, wallets, and even camera accessories like tripods, though it's not guaranteed to work with every MagSafe accessory, as those are technically designed for iPhones. It's a magnetic case so it can attach to MagSafe accessories from Apple's ecosystem, from wireless charging stands to Peak Design's car vent mount. I have become a bit of a fiend for all things with magnets, and Peak Design's Everyday cases are my go-to, whether I'm using an iPhone, Pixel, or Samsung phone.

Be sure to check our Best Galaxy S22 Cases and Best Android Phones guides for more. We've also included accessories like chargers and cables to kit out your new phone. These are the best Galaxy S23 cases of the dozens we've tested. Sure, Samsung utilizes Corning's Gorilla Glass Victus 2 around the device, but glass is still glass, and a single drop could be all it takes to crack the screen.Ī case and screen protector don't guarantee a life free from scratches and cracks, but some protection is better than none. They're priced to match, which is why it's important to protect your investment, whether you have the Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23+, or Galaxy S23 Ultra. Samsung phones are among the best Android handsets, and the Galaxy S23 series is no exception.
