What to Look For in a Galaxy S23+ Case

Like many high-end Android phones, the Galaxy S23+ has glass on the back and the front. Even with this high-quality, durable glass, the phone is susceptible to damage all over. If you want to keep your S23+ safe, you’ll need a case.

One of the most important decisions regarding a case is the form factor you want to use. This goes hand in hand with how much protection the case offers. Slim and light cases don’t add as much bulk and fit in your pocket easily but have less protection, while cases that offer more protection are significantly bulkier.

You’ll also want to consider what extra features you want the case to have. For example, even slim cases can have raised edges to better protect your screen and camera lens, while wallet-style cases offer you slots to hold cards and pockets for cash.

Cases come in different materials as well. Some use a more rigid plastic composite, while others use thermoplastic polyurethane, or TPU. TPU is softer and more flexible than rigid materials but is easier to fit onto your phone. You’ll also see cases in leather, faux leather, or combinations of materials.

Many cases offer support for wireless charging, but it’s important to note that not all phones do. If you’re looking at a case that doesn’t mention that it features support for wireless charging, don’t assume that it will work with wireless chargers.

Finally, the look is a significant factor. Even plastic cases come in various colors, and clear finishes let you see your phone underneath. No matter how protective your case is, if you don’t like how it looks, you won’t use it.
