Best Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra cases
You have all the right to be excited about the next generation Samsung Galaxy phones. The Galaxy Unpacked event is ancient history already and this year it was dedicated solely to the Galaxy S21 series. We’ve got three devices as usual - the vanilla Galaxy S21, the plus variant, and the Galaxy S21 Ultra. What’s unusual, though, is that for the first time there's an S-Pen support in a Galaxy S device. That’s right - the Galaxy S21 Ultra supports this “Note-worthy” accessory.

You'll love these:


Regarding the S-Pen, though, there are some caveats. First, Samsung won’t ship the Galaxy S21 Ultra with the S-Pen (and the same goes for the charging adapter). Second, the S Pen that Samsung sells specifically for the S21 Ultra is a bit different than the one on the Note series, it's thicker, so it might actually be a bit more comfortable to hold and use. And then there’s the next one - there isn’t any dedicated slot in the Galaxy S21 Ultra to accommodate the S-Pen.


This leads us to the cases. Samsung has created a series of dedicated S-Pen cases - including a LED View Cover and a Silicone Case. Let’s dive a little deeper and see all the available Galaxy S21 Ultra cases and how they deal with the S-Pen situation.

Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra official cases


All the official cases have been announced and they're more or less the usual stuff that Samsung puts out. The Galaxy S21 Utra gets two dedicated S-Pen cases, but apart from them there aren't any big surprises in the lineup.

Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G S-View Cover with S-Pen

The Smart Clear View Cover has gotten an upgrade to accommodate the big addition to Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G — the S Pen. The S-Pen slides into the holder inside to keep the accessory at the ready for when you need it. Just like with other S-View cases, this one has a window that shows you important information at a glance.

Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G Silicone Cover with S-Pen

It appears that Samsung has decided to include S-Pen support only for certain models (two). The silicone case made from black TPU material is the second S-Pen case and it has gotten wider to accommodate the new accessory. This Galaxy S21 Ultra case will make the already big device feel even bigger, but at least you won't lose the S-Pen.

Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G S-View Cover

If you don't care about the S-Pen but like Samsung's S-View flip covers, fret not. There's a regular Galaxy S21 Ultra S-View cover without a slot for the S-Pen. It features the same cool notifications window plus an antimicrobial coating that blocks microbial growth to help protect against certain bacteria. And it's quite cheaper than its S-Pen capable counterpart.

Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G LED Wallet Cover

The cool LED Wallet Cover is back - it features a simple LED notification panel on the front that not only can display basic information, but can register touches. Even with the cover closed, you can use the Galaxy S21 Ultra. When you get a call, simply answer or reject it with a tap. There's a cool app that goes with this Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra LED cover - when you put on the cover for the first time a pop-up will appear prompting you to install an intuitive app.

Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G Silicone Cover

This classic silicone Galaxy S21 Ultra case is made of soft silicone, offering sleek protection from left to right, top to bottom. The slim form factor doesn't add bulk, so although it helps prevent damage, it still easily fits in your pocket or bag. There are some cool colors to choose from and the price is reasonable, too.

Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G Leather Cover

Leather is always in fashion. This Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra leather cover will maintain the panage of your premium phone, rather than "covering" it. This case is made of genuine leather, of course, and offers some additional protection to the camera system. The leather wraps around the edges of the phone and it's really comfortable to hold.

Sometimes protection comes before looks. This rugged Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra cover has been drop-tested to military-grade standards, and will keep your phone safe from damage and drops. The added double kick-stand offers two comfortable viewing angles: 45 or 60 degrees.

If you're happy with the color of your Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra, why hide it? The Clear Standing Cover will keep your phone's design on display, while keep on protecting it.

Who says you have to compromise style for protection or vice-versa? This Galaxy S21 Ultra Clear Protective Cover offers both. It puts your phone's color on display while the non-slip pattern along the border offers drop protection and better grip.
