The Samsung Galaxy S24 devices have come to grace us with their presence, and they’re just as amazing as we expect Samsung’s flagships to be. While the S24 Ultra gets Gorilla Glass Armor and a titanium frame, the smaller devices don’t get that luxury. So, if you’re going for the smallest in the series — the Galaxy S24 — it’ll be a great idea to fit it snugly into a case.
What’s your taste: rugged cases with military-grade protection, cases with basic protection that are nice to look at, or lightweight cases that offer good protection and feel nice in hand? Well, we’ve got them all here. Let me show you some to order while waiting for your S24.
Read: The best pre-order deals for the Galaxy S24 we have found.
UAG Monarch Pro
The launch price for the base model of the Samsung Galaxy S24 is $799, so if you want the utmost protection for your brand-new phone, an Urban Armor Gear case is the right choice. The Monarch Pro Kevlar (yes, the bulletproof kind) case is the toughest one UAG has.
You get a mix of polycarbonate and Kevlar outside to take the brunt of drops and a soft TPU interior wrapping your phone to absorb and dissipate impacts. It’s no surprise that you get 25 feet of drop protection. You also get large tactile buttons on the side, an anchor for your lanyard, and support for magnetic wireless charging.
Samsung Standing Grip Case
PopSockets and phone grips are one way to have a good hold on your phone when using it, but they aren’t very minimal. The official Samsung Galaxy S24 Standing Grip Case solves things there. The case is made of silicone, with a strap on the back to slip your hand through.
By sliding the strap downwards, it becomes a kickstand. There’s no need to prop your phone up on books when you want to watch Netflix. If you’re minimalist when it comes to your case experience, this first-party option is a great choice, especially as it has a bit of functionality beyond keeping your phone protected.
Pitaka MagEZ Case 4
The Pitaka MagEZ Case 4 is an attractive case made of 1500D aramid fiber, the same type of fiber that makes up Kevlar. I like that while you get the toughness this material provides, you get a sunset color scheme that makes it several times more visually appealing than any Kevlar case I’ve seen.
You get raised edges around the screen and camera to prevent scratches when flat on a surface. And if you like that no-case feel, the fact this is only 0.67 ounces (18.9 grams) and a minimal 0.05 inches (1.27 mm) thick makes it a fitting option. There’s an entire cutout around the side buttons, and it supports magnetic wireless chargers.
Speck Presidio2 Grip
Speck has long been one of the brands I turn to when looking for quality cases, and the Speck Presidio2 Grip keeps that going for me. This polycarbonate case comes with a soft-touch finish that hits the sweet spot between protection, grip, and good looks (with the option of three colors).
You’ll get drop protection from up to 13 feet, antimicrobial protection, and a raised lip to keep your screen safe when dropped. Speck seems very confident about their product, so you get a lifetime warranty with that. So, if you like this kind of case while waiting for your S24 pre-order, you can order this one right away.
Ringke Fusion Card
If you’re a fan of leaving the house with nothing but your phone, you’re probably also a fan of wallet cases. The Ringke Fusion Card is a clear TPU and polycarbonate case that comes with space for one payment card. With the cutout in the card sleeve, you thankfully won’t have to struggle to pull it out at Starbucks.
What’s impressive is that you’ll be able to wirelessly charge your Samsung Galaxy S24 even with a card inserted, and the case also doesn’t impede using contactless payment. There are also two slots for you to install a strap or lanyard.
There you have it, our top picks to protect your Samsung Galaxy S24!
