The Samsung Galaxy S20 and S20 Plus are awesome devices, but if you're here, you probably already know that. The two devices are now more expensive than ever, which puts extra stress on their owners during day-to-day use. You don't want to shell out a few hundred dollars for a screen replacement, do you? So, naturally, you want a nice case to protect your fancy new smartphone.

Well, you're in luck! Because we've gathered some of the best Galaxy S20 and S20 plus cases that you can buy right now. From the thick and rugged to the slim and elegant, there's one for every taste. Choosing a case can be overwhelming with hundreds of models available, so we did our best to narrow the selection down to a more manageable number. 

Picking the right case for your Galaxy S20 phone will mostly depend on your lifestyle and history with previous devices. If you're prone to dropping your phones, then a case with extra protection should be at the top of your list. But if you're always extra cautious when handling your phone, then a simple case that lets you put your phone on a table without worrying about scratches can be good enough. Meanwhile, kickstand cases are a type that should only be considered by people that spend a lot of time watching videos and movies on their phone, otherwise it's just unnecessary bulk added to your already biggish Galaxy S20. 
 

No matter what your preferences are, we have a lineup of great cases for the Galaxy S20 and S20 Plus that are sure to tickle your fancy.


The best Samsung Galaxy S20 and S20 Plus cases


If you’re buying your S20 straight from Samsung you might as well get a case for it while you're there. There’s a good variety of Samsung-made cases but we've selected only our favorites for this list. 

Samsung Galaxy S20, S20 Plus S-View Flip Cover case



This Galaxy S20 case is pretty unique thanks to its special cover. It not only protects your display but has a window that shows you important information at a glance. The Galaxy S20 will detect the case and show a dedicated always-on display to match the window. Pretty neat.

Samsung Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Leather Cover case



Another one of Samsung’s classic cases. The Leather Cover will add some style to your phone while providing a layer of durable material between the device and the floor. As we've mentioned in our Galaxy S20 case review, however, the leather will show signs of wear after time, so keep that in mind.


Samsung Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Silicone Cover case



You know what they say: silicone is like leather, except nothing like it. Okay, no one says that but it’s true. Silicone is not fancy but it’s cheaper and will do an okay job of keeping scratches away from the back of your Galaxy S20 phone. Plus, the milky colors are really nice to look at.


Samsung Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Rugged Protective Cover case



Last, but not least, Samsung’s tank of a cover. This Galaxy S20 case adds a durable outer shell to your phone that will withstand a lot of abuse. It comes with two kickstands for landscape and portrait viewing. It’s not the prettiest but it gets the job done.



The best Spigen Galaxy S20 and S20 Plus cases


Spigen is one of the top-tier case manufacturers which makes its products worthy companions to any Galaxy S20 or Galaxy S20 Plus

Spigen Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Ultra Hybrid case



Don’t be fooled by this case’s transparency! The Galaxy S20 Ultra Hybrid actually offers very good protection for your phone while letting your color of choice shine through it. It adds a bit of heft but one drop and you’ll be glad you have it.
 

Spigen Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Liquid Air case



The Galaxy S20 Liquid Air case is slim and will fit snugly around your phone like a second skin. It will greatly improve the grip you have of your phone and provide some essential protection. Also, it looks cool.

Spigen Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Rugged Armor case



The Rugged Armor case is the next step when it comes to protection. It has a sportier vibe and a distinct Spigen styling that will make it clear you like quality when it comes to cases.



Spigen Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Tough Armor case



This is the ultimate protection case from Spigen. With a hard outer shell and an inside layer for impact absorption, this case will fight off anything that wants to harm your Galaxy S20 (to a reasonable degree, of course). As a bonus, you also get a kickstand.

The best OtterBox Galaxy S20 and S20 Plus cases


OtterBox cases are on the expensive side but their design often enhances the look of your phone rather than make it dull.

OtterBox Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Commuter Series Mint Way case



We’re not gonna lie, we’ve picked this case because of the color. There's just something soothing about this Galaxy S20 case. But there’s more than that going for it. It’s made out of two layers that separate and together offer great protection for your phone.

OtterBox Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Defender Series case



The Defender Series takes protection to the next level. This Galaxy S20 case comes with four parts in total since it also acts as a holster with a belt clip, just like we used to carry phones in the olden days. But hey, we’re sure there are plenty of situations that would make that feature useful even today, so if you find yourself in one of those often, this is the case for you.

Encase Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Protective case pink



This Galaxy S20 case strikes a great balance between appealing to female users and not being overly pink and in-your-face girly. It’s not only classy but also has an impact dispersion system to keep your phone safe, what more can you want?

Ringke Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Fusion X Design case


On the other end of the spectrum, we have this case with a striking, masculine design. Although you can get it without the camo pattern, we think this is one of the few times camo actually fits on a smartphone case. Those hefty bumpers also serve a purpose, of course, so it’s not all bark and no bite. The Galaxy S20 and S20 Plus are serious phones and they deserve serious protection.

ESR Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Metal Kickstand case


You don't have to buy a big, rugged case to have a kickstand. This ESR case comes with a sleek, transparent body and an elegant metal kickstand. It also has extra-protective corners with air pockets just like any self-respecting case does. Pop out the kickstand and enjoy the beautiful display of your Galaxy S20 device!

Caseology Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Parallax case


The Parallax case challenges even Samsung's own Galaxy S20 cases when it comes to looks and feel. The rhomboid design is simplistic yet has a little extra compared to most single-color cases. And on top of that, it still provides military grade protection.

Poetic Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Revolution case


The name of the brand might be Poetic, but this case screams futuristic. With this case on, your Galaxy S20 will look like a prop from a sci-fi movie. Needless to say, this case provides plenty of protection and fancy kickstand.

Incipio Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Organicore case


People concerned about the environment will rightly point to phone cases as a wasteful product. Many of them remain unsold and become obsolete relatively fast. With Incipio's Organicore Galaxy S20 case that's not a problem. These cases are made from plants and are 100% compostable. They're on the expensive side, but knowing you can just bury it in your yard, no harm done, might be worth a couple of tenners extra. 

Catalyst Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Stealth Black case


Catalyst one-ups the competition by giving you the exact height from which it's safe to drop your Galaxy S20 phone while it's enclosed in this protective case. 9.9 feet. We'll take a wild guess that even from 10 feet, your phone will still be fine. Despite boasting exceptional protection, this case isn't very bulky and has a nice pattern on the back for extra grip.

Cyrill Galaxy S20, S20 Plus Cecile case


Let's end this best cases compilation with something pretty. The Cecile series Galaxy S20 cases have nice flower motives without being tacky. They'll add not only protection, but some freshness to your Samsung phone. There are more patterns available for the Galaxy S20 than there are for the S20 Plus, but that's understandable considering most women would probably prefer the smaller phone.
