Best Cases for the Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9+

[pedrouliani]

I do not have an specific link but all the silicone ones are the best! They really protect the phone

I ordered this VRS clear case with bumper. I actually really like the feel. It's a soft TPU. Feels like it would fit the phone well without being bulky. I like the design a little better than some other clear cases I have seen.

Also ordered the Encased Rebel. It feels similar to an Otterbox to me. It's way cheaper though so I'm not going to expect it to be as good as Otterbox, but it feels like it would offer good protection. I really like the purple color. I do like actual Otterbox cases, but the color selection sucks. If they had a purple case I would have probably gotten it, but they don't.

I just need my phone to test these out. But so far these are keepers to me.

...'specially the EBAY $.99 ones ! can't believe ppl still fork over $10-$20 for these...

still looking

Got the phones, Whitestone Dome protected, and tried out the Spigen Tough Armor case and Caseology Legion case. The Spigen is pretty awkward to hold...the angle of the edges is just wrong. It's slightly more attractive though and is a smidge thinner than the Caseology. Both have a large amount of bumper on the top and bottom of you flip your phone face down. They both seem equally durable.

Spigen Ultra Hybrid S in clear. Hard back, with TPU around the edge. I also really like the kickstand.

Enjoy!

Wow great post! Thanks!

I got the Caseology Legion, I still don't know if I even want to bother with a screen protector.

 

[Guyinbox]

The uag Pathfinder case looks and feels awesome on the black s9+. Not much bulk at all for the protection it offers.

 

[JHStewart1023]

I have a clear gear4 case and the classic otterbox.... both have purple on them.. so awesome

 

[Rodrigo Torres]

I love s9

 

[KP8819]

Got my Spigen Ultra Hybrid case yesterday and love it! Its low profile & looks great on my Coral Blue phone. Great case and only paid 9$!
It works with the Whitestone domed screen glass protector too which is awesome too but I got minuscule bubbles on the right edge. Not real noticable but I can tell & its driving me crazy! Idk if I should return it or not since otherwise is perfect.
Anyone else have issues with bubbles and Whitestone?

Guys I am looking for a case that is compatible with my headphones - the plug is at a 90 degree angle. Ideally also with raised sides to protect the screen. Any recommendations? Thanks!

I switched to wireless earbuds ages ago, could never go back to wired.

 

[UberPooch]

Got my S9 Plus yesterday. Arrived the same as the Rinke Crystal Transparent Drop Defense case with wrist strap. Case looks good but when I went back to Amazon the item is no longer on the Ringke store site

 

[UberPooch]

Any thoughts about this one. I like the ring to secure your phone when you're holding it and the magnetic grip holder seems great in the car http://a.co/hTfi36W

 

[echo_808]

Taken with my Note 4. Ive been using the same layout and background since my Note 4 (minus the empty last row since i dont know what to put lol). I might finally change stuff around.

S8+ has the Spigen Neo Hybrid Crystal and no screen protector (since i got this replacement 2-3 weeks ago).

S9+ has the Spigen Ultra Hybrid and Spigen NeoFlex screen protector.

 

[jackal2001]

I've been using Caseology Parallax cases for my last 3 phones. GS7, GS8, GS9. Love them.

 

[greyserf]

Ending up getting the Spigen Neo Hybrid in Gunmetal/Black, think it will look sharp with a black S9. $14.99 from Amazon...

That's a nice looking case. Appears to be sold out? I don't see it listed on Amazon.

 

[greyserf]

I've been using Caseology Parallax cases for my last 3 phones. GS7, GS8, GS9. Love them.

That's the one I ended up purchasing just to have something on hand but it won't arrive until next week. How is it in terms of drop protection? I'm assuming the back doesn't allow for a Popsocket to be used?

 

[greyserf]

Has anyone ever used one of the Zizo cases? I heard they were highly rated with great drop protection (I think it was tested at 12 feet).

Wondering how much extra bulk they add.

Too bad the look and color choices are so unattractive.

I've been looking at other cases but it seems like the majority of what's on Amazon now are clear cases and I'm not interested in those.
