It additionally has a built-in lanyard, comes with a magnet for Qi2 charging, and has clicky buttons. The plain black design is boring although, and the fabric is slippery. I additionally examined the BodyGuardz Ace Professional, however I discovered it exhausting to entry the S Pen stylus.
ESR HaloLock Basic Hybrid Case: Solely accessible for the Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 Extremely proper now, that is my second favourite clear case after the Dbrand suggestion above.

Particularly contemplating how a lot the case prices. It does have magnets for Qi2 charging and is an in any other case completely high quality case.
Tech21 EvoArmor and EvoClear Magnetic Instances for $50: These are some strong, easy, and smart-looking magnetic instances with Qi2 performance. The perimeters across the display are raised to guard it, the buttons are responsive, and there is a spot to connect the lanyard.

Samsung Standing Grip Telephone Case for $55: I really like the massive grip on the again of this case. It slides properly and you’ll match a number of fingers by way of it. Nevertheless, the plastic sides of the case really feel just a little misplaced and make it really feel low-cost. The perimeters across the display are additionally barely raised, so it would not really feel very protecting. Surprisingly, wi-fi charging works, although there are not any magnets right here, so you aren’t getting Qi2 help. The underside edge can also be weirdly not protected.
Samsung Silicone Case for $30 and Rugged Case for $60: Samsung’s official Silicone case does the job, however I am unsure what it does greater than the cheaper choices above. The identical goes for the Rugged Case, which is manner too costly for what you get, particularly contemplating there are not any magnets in both of those for Qi2 help. They’re practical instances, simply too costly.

Latercase Skinny Case for $59: Here is one other super-thin case for individuals who hate conventional cumbersome instances. It is made out of aramid fibers and can hold your telephone scratch-free (a minimum of, the again of it). There isn’t any safety for the underside edge, the buttons, or the highest edge, so it is fairly minimal. I just like the mushy texture of the fabric although, and it seems fairly. There are sadly no magnets for Qi2 performance. The excellent news is that not like many skinny instances I’ve examined, this one may be very straightforward to take away.
Zagg Santa Cruz Snap Magnetic Case for $50: I examined a number of instances from Zagg, together with the Luxe, Milan, Denali, and Crystal Palace with Kickstand. They’re all OK. The buttons on all of those are barely stiffer than on the opposite instances I’ve examined—not horrible, however simply sufficient to note. Many of those do not have magnets in them however the Santa Cruz Snap does, and it labored effectively on my Qi2 and Qi charger. The perimeters are grippy, which is why I prefer it.
Benks ArmorAir Case for $40: This case is one other ultra-thin case, however it’s made out of Kevlar fiber, although how a lot sturdiness that gives when it is this skinny is questionable.

At the least it covers extra edges than the Latercase, and it additionally has magnets in-built for Qi2 help.

That should not be a lot of a difficulty in case you use a Qi2 charger.

Whereas that may sound extra sustainable than actual leather-based, there’s nonetheless numerous polyurethane in these instances. This is not the sustainable case you have been searching for. Nonetheless, it gives strong safety and responsive buttons whereas mimicking the leather-based aesthetic. There are not any magnets, so meaning no Qi2 help. I additionally examined the Symmetry Mushy Contact, one other non-magnetic case. It is OK, simply not good worth.
Rokform Rugged Case for $70: I’d solely advocate this case to anybody who actually desires the strongest magnets. This cumbersome case is protecting, however within the center across the magnetic ring sits just a little detachable puck. By default, this puck is magnetic and will increase the magnet power so that you’ve a safer connection. Nevertheless, this magnetic puck additionally disables all wi-fi charging. Whenever you need to wirelessly cost, you need to substitute the puck with the included non-magnetic puck, after which Qi2 charging will work. It did not work on a primary Qi charger in any respect. It is very protecting with edges raised effectively above the show, and the buttons are clicky, however it’s kind of a lot.

Keep away from These Instances and Equipment

Zagg Fusion Privateness Anti-Glare Display Protector for $60: You are alleged to peel one aspect of the display protector earlier than putting in it, however this aspect was caught to the protector so it took some effort. This ended up ruining the opposite aspect a bit, inflicting a number of air bubbles once I lastly was in a position to set up it. Worse but, this privateness protector performs poorly.

Zagg XTR4 and Fusion XTR4 Display Protectors for $60: Zagg claims these are graphene-fortified for higher safety, and that could be true, however when you will get display protectors for as little as $13, it is exhausting to make a case for a $60 one.

However that is not why I did not prefer it as a lot as our different suggestions. You need to affix the display protector to the highest of the set up device earlier than you start, however it wasn’t staying in place, and the tiny little bit of fidgeting to get it attached was sufficient to introduce some mud on the display, which naturally I didn’t see till after I completed putting in the display protector.
