Samsung may lump in the Galaxy S24+ with its little brother, but this phone is more of the sweet spot between the affordable but small S24 and the now-ridiculously expensive Galaxy S24 Ultra. It’s got a QHD+ screen with plenty of room for reading or gaming without being so large that it’s impossible to use one-handed, and it still has premium features like UWB that the base model still lacks.
Now that this Goldilocks of a Galaxy will be getting seven years of system updates, a quality case to keep it safe through the end of the decade is essential. From heavy-duty protection to sleek style to magnetic might, these Galaxy S24+ cases are the cream of the crop, and you’ll want to follow them up with a sturdy, tempered glass screen protector.

Caseology Parallax for Galaxy S24+
Best overall$17 $30 Save $13The Parallax hasn’t just stolen my heart; it stole my entire family’s with its low-key flair and outstanding grip. The Sage Green colorway has finally come to the series, and we’ve also got a deeply enticing Navy Violet to mesh with the breathtaking Cobalt Violet S24+. Air cushioning helps this TPU case endure 4-foot drops.
-
Mous Limitless 5.0 for Galaxy S24+
Premium pick$65 $70 Save $5Samsung skipped Qi2 for the Galaxy S24+, but MagSafe cases like the Mous Limitless give us that magnetic magic anyway. This sturdy case has five material types to choose from, including leather, Aramid Fibre, and two types of wood. It’s held up excellently this last year on the Galaxy S23, and we trust the S24+ version to do the same.
-
Spigen Liquid Crystal for Galaxy S24+
Best value$14 $30 Save $16Spigen puts a lot of eggs in the Ultra Hybrid’s basket these days, but for my money, the slimmer and grippier Liquid Crystal is the clear case to beat. It’s easy to get on and off since it skips the hard plastic back, and its evil twin, the Liquid Crystal Glitter, is one of my favorite cases of all time.
-
i-Blason Armorbox for Galaxy S24+
Promoted pickIn partnership with i-Blason
Supcase might not have given us any MagSafe Galaxy S24+ cases, but its sister brand, i-Blason, has. This upgraded Armorbox not only adds a MagSafe ring dead center for you to enjoy magnetic charging and easily removable phone grips but also adds a new lens cover that doubles as a kickstand.
-
dbrand Grip (MagSafe) for Galaxy S24+
dbrand’s skins are famous, but skins alone don’t offer much impact resistance to a phone. Thus, dbrand also makes a premium Galaxy S24+ case that is almost too grippy and offers dozens of case skins to customize it with. From special materials like leather and carbon to striking graphical designs to simple solid colors, this MagSafe case can appeal to everyone.
-
Samsung Flipsuit for Galaxy S24+
$40 $50 Save $10This case is perfect for those of us obsessed with collectibles. This case has one interactive card already installed — either these rotund smiley faces or a trio of people holding up a heart — and you can buy fresh Flipsuit Cards when you’re ready to jazz things up. Using NFC chips embedded in these cards, you can apply a matching wallpaper to your phone, too.
-
Casetify Mirror Series for Galaxy S24+
Casetify has thousands of normal case designs, but if you’re going to spend $72 on a Galaxy S24+ case, buy one of the licensed ones! Most designs are available for all case types, but Mirror Series has exclusives like “The Basilisk” from the Harry Potter collection and “Millennium Falcon” from Star Wars, which add extra depth and shine that is simply irresistible.
-
Snakehive Vintage Leather Wallet for Galaxy S24+
While Samsung technically makes a “wallet” case, it’s plastic and can only hold one card. Meanwhile, Snakehive’s wallet folio boasts three card slots and a cash flap in its pigskin leather interior while velvety-feeling nubuck leather dyed in one of six colors wraps around the outside. A magnetic strap ensures the case won’t fall open while in your purse or pockets.
-
Peak Design Everyday for Galaxy S24+
You’re probably familiar with Peak Design’s Everyday backpacks and camera bags, but did you know it also comes as an absolutely sublime Galaxy S24+ case? Peak Design’s famously durable nylon canvas covers the back of this MagSafe case, and it’s compatible with Peak’s Mobile array of home, vehicle, and camera mounts. Despite its sleek profile, it offers 6-foot drop protection.
-
Poetic Neon (Magnetic Ring Stand) for Galaxy S24+
We loved last year’s Poetic Neon, but this year’s is 300% better because it comes in three variants, including this ring stand model that turns the MagSafe array into a beautifully-colored kickstand. Poetic’s listing shows five colors — including a vastly superior violet and meritorious Military Green — but only pink and black have arrived so far.
-
UAG Monarch for Galaxy S24+
UAG’s put the hexagonal magnetic design on both versions of the Monarch, but only the Monarch Pro actually has the magnetic array. This multi-layered Galaxy S24+ case has more color options for the standard, non-magnetic version, but you can still get the convenience of MagSafe and the extra-fancy feel of carbon fiber on the Monarch Pro if desired.
-
Otterbox Symmetry Series for Galaxy S24+
The Otterbox Symmetry is finally getting the selection and variety for Android cases that were previously reserved for iPhone. From limited edition designs like this adorable Dogs case to translucent and solid-color options, the Symmetry Series can fit any lifestyle. Otterbox goes somewhat overboard in its drop testing, reassuring us that this Galaxy S24+ case will never fail its inhabitant.
-
Otterbox Commuter Series for Galaxy S24+
$34 $40 Save $6Three times higher drop protection than MIL-spec cases, wireless charging support, and a slim design to boot — the Otterbox Commuter series case for the Samsung Galaxy S24+ offers it all. Built with a dual-layer design, it combines a soft inner case and a heavy-duty outer polycarbonate shell to keep the phone safe and protected. And it even maintains a slim profile that makes the phone easy to slip into a pocket.
-
Torras Magsafe Case for Galaxy S24+

-
ESR Kickstand Case for Galaxy S24+
The ESR Case for the Galaxy S24+ delivers on all fronts with its sleek, versatile, and protective design. The transparent polycarbonate shell shows off the phone’s design. Better still, it’s been treated to resist yellowing. The case makes it easy to prop up for watching multimedia content or making video calls, thanks to a built-in kickstand that can be positioned at multiple angles.
-

This selection offers practical additions, too, like a built-in kickstand for enjoying multimedia content on the go.
Protection is key for the best S24+ cases
The longevity of your Galaxy S24+ depends on the longevity of its case, and thankfully, there’s no shortage of durable covers around. The Mous Limitless rides the fence between medium and heavy-duty cases, but it’s satisfying in-hand feel and invisible MagSafe support more than make up for its slightly bulky bumper. Leather and fabric add some interesting depth to it, but for my money, the Bamboo and Walnut last longer when used with magnetic accessories due to their smooth hardness. dbrand’s Grip case is similarly diverse with its skins, but I’ve found that MagSafe attachments can stick a little bit to the skin when trying to get it off after hours of use in ways they don’t on the Limitless.
Caseology’s Parallax may not have magnets, but its sleek figure and just-right grippiness make it an essential case and one of the best value among S24+ cases, though the Spigen Liquid Crystal undercuts it by a hair by benefit of only being one TPU layer rather than layered. Clear cases come in all shapes and sizes, but if you want a nearly invisible cover for your shiny Samsung, this is as good as it gets. That said, the way the Liquid Crystal Glitter elevates and emphasizes the colors and design of the Galaxy S24+ gives it an edge over the normal Liquid Crystal, and it also does a better job at hiding scuffs, smears, or that tiny crack on your S24+ that you got for walking around without a case on.
More cases are still coming fast and furious, and we’ll be bringing the best of them right here as we hunt them down and start testing them out. Two of the first we’re testing are the dbrand Grip (MagSafe) and the Poetic Neon (Magnetic Ring Stand). I’ve already mentioned the Grip’s unexpected grippiness — at least with the Warzone skin I’ve been using — but it’s usually only noticeable when attempting to rotate an attached grip or charger. The Magnetic Ring Stand version of the Poetic Neon appears to be the winner of its series: when using circular grips like the newer PopSocket’s MagSafe PopGrip, you can still use the built-in kickstand. It also provides access to the back of the MagSafe ring, so you can pop extra magnetic grips off by pushing them out through the middle. It sounds small, but it’s handy for those of us with weak finger strength.
