The new Samsung Galaxy S25 series offers some of the best smartphones we’ve tested, combining powerful performance and long battery life with stunning designs. With prices starting at $800, you’ll want to protect your investment, no matter how much you love showing off the sleek “Silverblue” color. A case is a must.
Luckily, there are plenty of great options for the Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+, and Galaxy S25 Ultra from trusted brands and some new contenders. To help you choose, we tested a variety of cases and picked the ones truly worth buying.
We tested most of these cases on the Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 Ultra, but our top picks work for all three phone models. We checked how easy it was to remove the S Pen stylus on the S25 Ultra cases and had no issues with our recommendations. Whether you need strong protection, a slim design, or a case with a built-in stand for content creation, here are the best Galaxy S25 cases we’ve tried.
Torras Clear Magnetic Case With Ring Stand
Torras’ clear case comes with a built-in ring that doubles as a stand, so you don’t need to attach or remove accessories like a PopSocket. The ring rotates, letting you prop your phone at two different angles. The case also has responsive buttons for volume and power. The only downside is that the ring is slightly recessed, so you may need fingernails or a small tool to pop it out.
Tech21 Evoclear Case
Many clear cases exist for the S25 Ultra, but I prefer this one for its simple design, MagSafe charging ring, and corner shock-absorbing ridges. It feels great and has no major issues.
UAG Plasma XTE Case
I like UAG’s Plasma XTE case for its solid protection and built-in ring stand, similar to Torras’ designs. The thick plastic sides offer a secure grip, unlike the slippery material on Samsung’s rugged case. The clear back lets you show off your phone’s color, and it works with magnetic accessories like a MagSafe power bank for quick charging. While it’s a bit pricey and flashy for my taste, it delivers excellent protection and functionality.
Dbrand Ghost Case 2.0 for Galaxy S25 Ultra
The Ghost Case 2.0 is a simple, durable clear case with a strong black bumper. It has a clear back and precise camera cutouts, unlike many cases that use a single large cutout for cameras. Ghost also claims their case won’t turn yellow over time and offers a free replacement if it does. You can get it with or without MagSafe support.
Speck Presidio 2 Grip for Galaxy S25 Ultra
This matte black case features a smooth finish and a ridged design for a better grip. The S Pen slot is a bit deeper than ideal but still easy to use. While it lacks a visible circle on the back, it works perfectly with MagSafe chargers.
UAG Metropolis LT Case in Kevlar Mallard
I didn’t expect to like this case as much as I do. The idea of Kevlar in a phone case seemed over the top, but once I held it, I understood. The Kevlar adds a great texture and feels tough, just like the rest of the case. Honestly, I should’ve expected no less from a brand called Urban Armor Gear.
