These are the best Galaxy S20+ cases on the market

The best Samsung Galaxy S20+ cases keep your bold phone protected without covering up what makes it so striking. The Galaxy S20+ is the Goldilocks of the three Galaxy S20 phones, and has proven to be the most popular variant in most markets. If you got yourself a unit before the phone was discontinued, grab yourself the best Galaxy S20+ case and enjoy using it for years to come!

Best Galaxy S20+ case for most people

Spigen Liquid Air Armor

Staff pick

Spigen makes one of the most popular single-layer cases on the market, the Rugged Armor, but the Liquid Air is not only a fresher look, but it's got much, much better grip thanks to that diamond texture across the back.

Sustainable style

Samsung Kvadrat Cover

Samsung's branching out into eco-friendly cases this year, and the Kvadrat case is fine-looking and it feels even better. This case is made of recycled materials, is 100% compostable, and comes in green, grey, and red.

For a cruel, cruel world

ArmadilloTek Vanguard Designed for Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus Case

Our phones are our lifelines, and the robust drop protection and dust plugs on these cases can help your S20+ survive what life throws at it. It also has a kickstand that works well in portrait or landscape mode.

Clear control

Caseology Solid Flex Crystal

This name-brand clear case gives us the best of all worlds: air cushions to protect the corners, shows off the signature Samsung style, and adds a great amount of grip for less than a large pizza.

Classy covering

Samsung Leather Back Cover

Samsung's leather cases are always a hit, and while the S20+ doesn't come in as many colors as the regular S20, the leather cover still comes in six shades, though the ruby red certainly stands out most to me.

Ready for war

UAG Pathfinder

This mil-spec drop-tested case has a rugged grip, robust corners, and big buttons for those who are rough on their phone or tend to take their phones on intense adventures.

Full-grain luxury feel

Snakehive Vintage Wallet

When it comes to wallet folios, even Samsung and Bellroy don't feel as good in the hand as Snakehive. This European full-grain nubuck leather wallet case comes in over a half-dozen colors, and you can get initials embossed on the front corner.

Hybrid hero

Caseology Parallax for Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus

Combine the grip and flexibility of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) with the stability and shine of hard plastic, add in a shallow texture on the back, and some swanky two-tone colorways, and you've got a winner.

Like nothing's there

Totallee Thin Galaxy S20+ Case

Totallee's thin cases are unbranded, ultra-light, and ultra-thin. If you hate cases because they're bulky, Totallee is made for you. This one is available in a rigid black or softer clear case.

Rugged showoff

Supcase UB Style

Supcase's Unicorn Beetle Style offers a crystal clear backplate while two-tone TPU hugs the sides of your phone and keeps it safe. It's available in black everywhere, but if you check around, you can also find blue and purple!

Dual-layer durability

OtterBox Commuter Series Case for Galaxy S20+

OtterBox serves up its name-brand protection in the classic hybrid style with the Commuter Series. It's not as easy to slip on/off as the Symmetry, but it's also more affordable for the same level of protection.

Almost invisible

Ringke Air

Let this thin TPU case cling to your Galaxy S20+ and all of its curves so that you can grip your new phone with confidence. Don't expect much shock absorption, but it'll give your new phone scratch protection at least.

All those ridges

Speck Presidio Grip Samsung Galaxy S20+ Case

Simply put, the Speck Presidio Grip has everything you could ask for. The ridges on the back allow for enhanced grip, there's 13-foot drop protection, and microban protection keeps bacteria at bay.

Beautiful and durable

Miracase Marble Full Body

Who said pretty cases have to delicate? Miracase brings a stabilizing front frame to this slim TPU case that's adorned with two-tone marble and glimmering rose gold accents. You can also get it in lavender or teal.

$17 at Amazon

Plant-based protection

tech21 Pure Clear for Galaxy S20+

Tech21 makes the PureClear case with sustainable, plant-based materials, while also making it durable and drop-resistant. It also has a BioShield that's supposed to keep your phone clean and germ-free.

What are the best Galaxy S20+ cases?

If you want some slim protection for your Galaxy S20+, grab the Spigen Liquid Air or the Caseology Solid Flex Crystal so that your S20+ has at least a little protection from scuffs, scratches, and slips.

If you want some more robust protection, I've been a fan of the ArmadilloTek Vanguard Series for a couple of years now. The fold-flat kickstand doubles as a tentative phone grip while weaving through a crowd, and despite the case's beefier back, it still supports wireless charging so you can keep those dust flaps securely covering your USB-C port and keeping out lint and sand.

There are great cases out there for all of the S20 models, and we've also rounded up our favorite Galaxy S20 Cases and Galaxy S20 Ultra Cases to help you get more ideas for the perfect case for your perfect new phone.

How much protection do you need in a case?

The Galaxy S20+ is a pretty sizeable phone, but the amount of protection it needs depends on you. If you're not the type to stray far and keep your phone close to your side, all you might need is some extra grip and some scratch protection, though consider grabbing a thin case that keeps a good lip around the camera module.

For most, I recommend a case with at least some shock absorption for drop protection. You don't need military-grade rugged tanks, but having some air cushion corners or impact-absorbing foam in the corners is protection worth having. This is the category most cases in this roundup fall into.

If you're hard on your phone or spend lots of time outdoors, then you should consider the heavy-duty protection of the ArmadilloTek, UAG, or OtterBox. Or really, any of the great cases on our Best Heavy-Duty Cases list.

What case material is the best for my phone?

Case materials depend on your desired case style, but honestly, there are very few cases that use only one type of material these days unless it's a TPU case. TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) is flexible, cheap to manufacture, and can be molded into just about any shape and color you want. This makes TPU a good material for thin and medium cases, as well as making TPU the de facto inner layer material in hybrid cases and most clear cases.

Hybrid cases usually consist of TPU and polycarbonate, a hard plastic, but some also use leather, wood, or metal. Metal isn't ideal in a phone case as it's heavier and interferes in wireless charging, but leather can last a long time if you take good care of it. Leather cases are thicker but can age so gracefully, and they're also used in most wallet cases for the S20+.

One other material that users looking to keep a phone in pristine condition inside a case might want to seek out are cases that are lined with microfiber. Microfiber lining can keep the inside of a case — or the dirt that sneaks between a phone and its case — from scratching the device.

Should you only buy cases from brands you know and trust?

The saying "you get what you pay for" far predates smartphone cases, but it's not the only yardstick by which to measure a case's quality. While I'll be the first to say that I have a list of casemakers I tend to favor, I also know firsthand that a trusted brand can make you pay through the nose for its prestige.

There are plenty of perfectly fine cases to be found outside the known brands, and you can save yourself a few dollars if you know how to judge a no-name case. It might not have any reviews in yet, but if the listing has good pictures of the case, and the brand's previous cases have decent reviews, you can probably take a chance on it. Just don't buy a case where the shipping costs more than the case and remember, if a price seems too low to be true, it almost always is.

As time wears on, prestige cases will often drop in price. For instance, the OtterBox Defender Series launched in early 2020 at twice the price it sells for today. On the other hand, Urban Armor Gear and Snakehive's S10 cases are generally the same prices now as they were a year ago, so it's not a universal rule.

More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis. With the food delivery sector rocketing toward a projected $365 billion by the end of the decade, I’m clearly not the only one turning to delivery apps even before the pandemic hit. Thanks to technology (and VC funding) we can get a ri

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
