As with any of the best Android phones, we recommend equipping the Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus with a dependable case.

None of the best phones is impervious to damage that might occur through everyday use, be it an accidental drop that cracks the screen or an unfortunate incident with car keys. This damage is not only unsightly, but it can also impact the phone's functionality.

Repairing any phone can be costly and an unexpected hassle, making investing in a solid phone case a wise choice to protect the device's longevity. Likewise, a screen protector is worthwhile for extending your phone's lifespan. See our guide to the best Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus screen protectors for top options.

When looking for a case for the Galaxy S25 Plus or any of the best Samsung phones, focus on options that provide lasting protection, functionality, and a style that suits your preferences.

You may want to look for cases that provide extra convenience factors, such as a built-in kickstand, an antimicrobial coating, or integrated magnets to take advantage of the Galaxy S25 series' new compatibility with Qi2 magnetic wireless charging.

It is also worth considering any potential trade-offs you might experience with a case. Some cases impact functionality, such as not being compatible with standard wireless charging because they're too thick.

Due to very slight year-over-year differences in dimensions and design components, a Galaxy S24 Plus case will not properly fit the Galaxy S25 Plus, and vice versa.
