Five best Samsung Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9 Plus cases you can buy right now (Vol. 2)

March 10, 2018

The recently announced Samsung Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9 Plus are truly beautiful devices. But, if experience has taught us anything, phones with glass backs need to be protected! We’ve compiled a list of some of the best cases you can order RIGHT NOW to have on your doorstep by the time your new phone gets there.

Spigen Rugged Armor

If the Spigen Rugged Armor lineup isn’t one of the best selling cases around, I’d be extremely surprised. I see the case everywhere on the street for a variety of phones. It offers just enough protection without making the phone super bulky and looks pretty good in the process. It costs under $15 with free Prime shipping.

LOHASIC Crystal Clear Series

If you want protection without hiding the beautiful design of the Galaxy S9, this might be the case for you. This clear case has a raised lip to protect the screen and camera, as well as enhanced bumpers to prevent damage from falls. The clear design means that you can still marvel at the best looking phone on the market right now while keeping it safe.

Caseology Parallax Series

The Caseology Parallax Series is hands down one of the best looking lineups on the market right now. Available in several colors, the Parallax Series offers stunning looks, excellent protection and a price tag that can’t be beaten. I love the Burgundy/Rose Gold combination pictured above, but there are others to chose from if that’s not your thing. I highly recommend them.

OtterBox DEFENDER Series

When you think about cell phone protection, who is the first name that comes to mind? Yep, I thought of OtterBox too. The company has a reputation for keeping phones looking new from the day the case is put on until the case is taken off. The DEFENDER series offers all the protection you could want and a handy holster so your phone doesn’t have to fit in your pocket anymore. If you’re looking to protect your investment long-term, there are few better choices than OtterBox.

Maxboost mWallet Series

While I am certainly not a folio case lover, I can see the logic behind them. A cover for the front of your phone to protect it from scratches is a smart route to go and adding convenient features like credit card slots is just downright smart. The Maxboost mWallet Series has both of those features and more. The case can also be opened up to prop up your phone for hands-free media viewing and the magnetic lock means your phone will stay protected even when it’s in your bag or purse. We also love the design with the folding flap over the front. Not bad, Maxboost.

Bonus – Screen Protectors

Screen protectors for phones with curved screens are a tricky thing. They either don’t grip the entire screen, leave halos, or have no suction in the middle. While we can’t endorse any of the screen protectors listed below because we haven’t tried them, they do look promising enough for you to take a look at it.
