as well well so grab your snacks sit back and relax and enjoy the video and here we have the Taurus o case this one accessory includes all the important features you would want in a case the oan case puts a regular case a stand a MAG safe connection and a ring all in one place this case also has three times military spec protection but it keeps the phone pretty slim and has raised edges on the front and the back of the phone to keep your screen and camera lenses nice and protected the stand on the back of the case offers you two different modes of operation one you can stand your phone up so you can take some Zoom calls or you can lay it down in a horizontal mode so you can watch some YouTube or Netflix and when you're done with the stand it easily folds right back up into the case nice and flush the mag safe ring in the back not only allows you to use the mag safe accessories such as their mag safe power bank but it's also magnetic and allows you to stick at the things that are metal like a refrigerator or a stove hood so you can easily watch your favorite cooking recipe while you cook the kickstand really comes in handy for me because I actually like to watch YouTube while I'm brushing my teeth eating my breakfast and when I need to take selfies using the S Pen from a distance now this case does come in two different colors it comes in this totally clear where you can show off the color of your phone and it also comes in a nice frosted back with a black trim so the case itself does feel good in the hand and the buttons are nice and clicky easily accessible if we take a look at it from the side you can see it does have a slight raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case I also do have a tempered glass screen protector on the front as well and we also have some extra protection in all of the corners on the back to help out with the back protection too we have our cutouts on the bottom we have a cutout for our S Pen which you can easily use to get the S Pen out of the case wher our power buttons and our volume buttons on the side which are separated and I absolutely love that on the back it's nice and clear to show off the color of your phone we have that mag safe ring and kickstand allinone and we have a raised Edge on our camera lenses for protection there too now like I mentioned before this mag safe ring on the back is also magnetic and here I have my razor blade just to demonstrate that so it sticks right to the back of the case and then if you happen to have power Banks such as the Taurus oand power bank here it easily Clips right onto the back and it immediately starts to charge your phone it also has a really strong strong hold on the back of the case so you don't have to worry about your mag safe accessories just falling off as well but we'll talk more about this power bank in just a minute and it also has these little ridges in the corner so when you put your phone on its back you don't have to worry about it rocking all over the place if you happen to tap on the screen and if you're wondering how much this case weighs it comes in at 49 G and again here we have that same oand case but it has a matte transparent back again feels really good in the hand buttons are nice and clicky it's got that nice soft rubbery TPU material on the sides and on the back it's got that matte transparent back so it doesn't show finger prints I think it actually looks really nice with the natural titanium Ultra the kickstand on the back is made of all metal and it stays in any position that you're going to be placing it it doesn't just flop around like some of the other cases and we'll see how much this case weighs this one weighs 50 g so just a little bit High heavier than the clear one then here we have the Taurus p stand case and the guardian mag case as you can see these two cases are pretty similar looking but the P standand case comes with a kickstand that's built in into the bottom of the case and the guardian mag does not have a kickstand but it does have mag safe built in and it also comes with some buttons that you can easily swap out on the side for a little bit of contrast so if you don't need to have the k stand on the bottom of the case you can definitely go with the guardian mag my personal favorite is definitely the P mag though I absolutely love the metal kickstands that come on the bottom of the case they do come in handy because again I like to watch uh YouTube videos like when I'm eating breakfast or brushing my teeth things like that it's also flush with the case so you don't have any extra bumps and it's also got that mag safe built in with the nice matte back now un unlike the guardian mag case the buttons on the PMAG case are not swappable so first off the case feels really nice in the hand it's not slippery it's got kind of like a smooth rubbery feel the buttons on the side are also very easily pressable nice and clicky if you look at the case from the side you can see that it does have a raised Edge on the top and the bottom and I also do again have a tempered glass screen protector on the phone it also keeps your phone pretty slim doesn't add a lot of we have our cutouts on the bottom again you can easily get your SP pen out the bottom of this case we have our power button and our volume buttons on the side on the back again it's got that nice matte look it's nice and smooth we have our mag saering we also have that metal kickstand super solid does not feel flimsy at all and is definitely going to stay in the position that you want it in we also do have a raised edge around our cameras too help with protection there so with the kickstand you can put your phone in a portrait mode so you can take some Zoom calls or something like that again or you can lay your phone down in a horizontal mode and watch Netflix or YouTube really comes in handy I Love How firm and sturdy it feels and again it falls right back into the case so you're not really missing out on anything or losing anything because there's no bump from that kickstand and with the mag safe ring you can use their power bank or any other mag safe accessory very easily Clips onto the back very nice and immediately starts to charge your phone again this mag safe case has the same great strong magnetic hold so you don't have to worry about your mag safe accessories just falling off your phone wow that's that is really strong and it just looks really great on the natural titanium Ultra and that mat back I think looks really great on the s24 ultra again definitely one of my more favorite cases that Taurus makes so the magg Guardian case feels exactly like the O and the PST case but it doesn't have the kickstand on the back like the other cases do still feels really good in the hand has the same protection for the front and the back of the phone again it keeps your phone nice and slim the thing about this case again is it comes with those buttons that you can easily swap out on the side for some contrast if you don't want it to be all black these buttons are very easily pressable nice and clicky feels really good on the phone and again on the back it's got that nice transparent smooth backing so it doesn't show fingerprints nearly as much as some of the other clear cases out there but we still do have that nice strong magnetic ring and the same lens protection around our cameras again if you happen to have their mag safe power bank or some or any other mag safe accessory it Clips onto the back really well and immediately starts to charge your phone in this case has the same stronghold on the mag safe accessories as the other two cases do and here we have the banks armor air case so first we're going to take a look at the armor air case now this case again is super light and it's really strong because it's made of 600D Kevlar it also has mag safe built in and a metal ring around your camera lenses for some extra protection now let's see how much this case weighs only 25 gr that's pretty light so if you're a minimalist and you want to protect the sides and the back of your phone but make it feel like the phone doesn't have a case on it the armor air is going to be definitely for you so let's put our phone inside the case here fits in the case really well snaps into place feels nice in the hand feels just like the phone does not have a case on it but you get that extra protection now oh that's really nice the get the buttons on the side are very easily accessible because there's a big cutout for those buttons If we look at it from the side you can see that there is an Ever So slight r Edge kind of on the top and the bottom of the case itself and as you can see the phone is still super slim you really can't get any thinner than this on the bottom we have our cutouts you can also easily access your S Pen on the side again we have a nice big cutout for your buttons on the side on the back we have that nice 600D Kevlar feels nice and smooth and it really keeps those fingerprint prints down and again we also have a metal ring around our camera lenses for some extra strength protection there as well I really do love this case I mean it feels so solid it just I don't know it just feels really good in the hand it's not it's not slippery either it's just got a kind of like a smooth type of feel to it that's a really nice case and again it does have the mag safe built in so if you happen to have a MAG safe accessory like I have here I have this power bank just put it on the back and immediately starts to charge your phone and that magnet on the back is also pretty strong so you don't have to worry about your mag safe accessory just falling off this is definitely one of the nicer more premium minimalist cases that I've seen for this phone and I'm sure you're going to agree so if you're looking for a case that's going to keep your phone protected on the sides and the back not necessarily from you know a lot of drops but maybe from some scratches the armor air is definitely a case I would recommend and then here we have the banks Armor Pro case and then here we have the Armor Pro case this case has the same 600D Aid fiber as the armor air with that metal ring around your camera lens but this one has a much thicker type of TPU material on the sides to give your phone a little more protection so if you love the armor air but you want a little more protection the Armor Pro is going to be the case for you so let's see how much this case weighs so the other one weighed 25 G and this one weighs 43 and this case also has mag safe built in and that aramid fiber continues into the inside of the case as well really nice fits the phone really nice feels really good in the hand it's got kind of like a smooth rubbery type feel buttons on the side are easily pressable and clicky very nice tactile feel if we look at the case from the side you can see that this case has a much more raised Edge on the top and the bottom it also doesn't actually add any extra bulk to the phone it keeps the phone pretty slim too which is nice on the bottom we have our cutouts you can access your S Pen it's a little bit harder to access your S pen with this case because the cutout is not as forgiving as some of the other cases it's just kind of like a you know a straight cut in the inside there's like no bevel so you can kind of fit your finger in there so you might have a little bit harder time getting the S Pen out if you have bigger fingers we also have a power button on the side our volume buttons on the back again shows off that really nice airamid fiber super smooth feels really good and again it keeps down those fingerprints which is nice and we have that same metal ring around our camera lenses for protection there too this is definitely one of my top favorite cases it just it looks and feels really premium and again like I said if you want a little more protection than the Armor air the Armor Pro is going to be the case for you now as for the mag safe on the back back again if you happen to have that mag safe accessory like I have a power bank here you can clip it onto the back and it starts to charge your phone this also works with regular wireless charging as well and it's really got a nice strong hold on that mag safe accessory so you don't have to worry about it just falling off really really nice case I would definitely recommend this to anybody looking to get a nice premium case that offers a little more protection for your phone and here we have B's Duo hybrid case this case has been drop tested up to 12 ft so here is the case it's got a really nice matte back that does keep down the fingerprints and it also has mag safe built in we also have a nice ring all the way around the edge of our camera lenses for some extra protection there as well it's also made of a nice hard backing surrounded by a softer TPU material let's see how much the case weighs so this case weighs 48 gram feels really nice in the hand it's not slippery but it's not grippy it's kind of got like a smooth rubbery type feel to it buttons on the side nice and clicky easily pressable I absolutely love that if we look at it from the side you can see that it does have a raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the fun phone it also doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the phone either we have our lanyard holes on the side we have our cutouts on the bottom and those power buttons on the side nice and glossy and separated makes it very easy to press on the back of the phone we can see that it has a metal ring all the way around our camera lenses and it's also nicely raised for some protection for those lenses as well on the back it's got that nice smooth matte feel with our mag safe built in and as you can see it doesn't show very much fingerprints if at all the ring around the camera makes the case feel that much more premium and if you happen to have power Peaks charging puck like I have here you can simply clip it right onto the back and it'll start to charge your phone immediately this case also does work with regular wireless charging as well really nice case I love how soft and smooth the back is another nice thing about the case that they thought of is they didn't put raised edges on the side of the case for when you're swiping you can easily reach the edges of of the phone and that cutout for the Spen makes it very easy for you to get the pen out and put it back the duo hybrid is one of my favorite cases and the case also comes in a light pink for the ladies or if you're a guy and you like pink that's perfectly fine too looks really nice with the pink accented ring around the cameras and the lighter kind of flesh tone on the side looks pretty cool I also love I personally really like these pink buttons on the side too if they really stand out and give a nice contrast to the rest of the case then here we have B's Crystal slim series case this has been dropped drop tested up to 10 ft see how much this case weighs 47 G and as the name suggested it is Crystal Clear it's got a nice hard polycarbonate back surrounded by a softer rubbery TPU type material goes in the phone very easily it does have a nice grip to it feels good in the hand it's got kind of like a texture on the side as well buttons are also very easily pressable and clicky if you look at the case from the side you can see it's got the same raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case there are those ridges on the side for some extra grip we have our cutouts and our Spen port on the bottom again very easy to get the S Pen out if you need to use it we have our buttons on the side on the back again it's Crystal Clear to show off the color of your phone looks really nice it's also got mag safe built in and it's got a raised edge around our camera lenses for production there too that is pretty sharp so if you want to show off the color of your phone the crystal slim case is definitely one to get and again if you have a charging P or mag safe charger you can use it with this case as well and it also works fine with a regular Wireless charging too and if you put your phone face down because it has that nice grip the phone's not going to just slide all over the place so this is another really nice case option if you want to show off the color of your phone and keep the phone protected then here we have their prot te series case this case is drop tested up to 15 ft this case is made of a two-piece design it's got a hard polycarbonate back and it has a soft TPU inner shell it's ALS also got mag safe built in and this is another one of my favorite cases by Bas fits the phone really nice feels good in the hand the buttons on the side nice and clicky easily accessible if we look at the case from the side you can see it still has a raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case on the side we have that softer TPU surrounded by the harder outer shell we have our lanyard holes in the bottom we also have our cutouts on the bottom here and our S Pen cutout so you can easily access that S Pen we have our buttons on the side on the back again it's got that nice textured hard shell feels really nice and it also doesn't show fingerprints either and we have a raised edge around our camera lenses for protection there too this case also has some reinforcements in the corners in case you happen to drop your phone and it hits the corners your phone's going to be protected and again if you have a MAG safe accessory like this power Puck here you can easily clip it onto the back and it starts to charge your phone immediately so if you're worried about drop protection for your brand new s24 Ultra the Protek series is definitely going to be the case for you and the case also comes in a black as well same drw protection same everything but it's just in a matte black which I think looks pretty sleek and then here we have the base folio wallet this case does have mag safe built in and it's been drop tested up to 10 ft so if you're looking for a nice case that's going to keep your phone protected and carry some of your money and your credit cards the folio wallet is definitely a good option and if you don't want to use the folio portion you can always take the case off and you still have that nice leatherette backing and it Clips right back in place with magnets very cool the case itself does again have a hard polycarbonate shell surrounded by this leather material and it's got softer TPU sides on the inside of the case it is covered with a kind of like a soft felt to keep the glass on the back of your phone nice and not scratched up case goes in the phone really well feels nice in the hand it's got kind of like a smooth rubber feel buttons very clicky easily accessible if we look at it from the side again it's got those raised edges on the top and the bottom of the case it also doesn't make the the phone really thick we have our cutouts on the bottom again you can easily access that S Pen we have our power buttons on the side volume rockers on the back it's got that leather type material and I also do have the protector on here as well and as you can see it fits perfectly inside this case and again if you happen to have a MAG safe accessory like the power Puck here Clips onto the back and starts to charge your phone so let's put the case back in the folio portion again Clips right onto the side with the magnets looks really nice holds three credit cards in the pockets here it also has a big big pocket in the side to hold some more like money or whatever else you want and then it folds up and holds in place again with a magnet as you can see it's also not super thick either looks really nice again the whole thing feels good in the hand too opens up very easily and if you need to fold it back in itself to hold it like that the little flap doesn't get in the way of the power button you can still access it and it still seems to be very easy to hold the case with one hand while it's folded over on itself now if you're wondering you can wirelessly charge through the folio cover but the mag safe is only on the inner portion of the case and not on the folio cover itself so that's something to just keep in mind but this is a really nice leather case the stitching is really nice all around it seems to be made of Premium materials it does not feel cheap so if you want to carry some credit cards and some money or something like that while still maintaining just the use of the case I would definitely recommend the folio wallet and here we have the Paka magy case 4 so one thing I really like that pataka is doing is they make their boxes out of recycled materials and it also has this magnetic opening here's the case itself all right let's see how much this case weighs it should be super light 24 gram this is one of the lightest cases I've reviewed so far so here is the case itself again like you like I said it is super light and strong you can see how thin it is it's also got mag safe built in and is made from the 600D aramid fiber it's so smooth and it doesn't show fingerprints which is awesome it's also got a plastic ring around the cameras for some protection there too put on our phone goes in the phone really nice and like I said before it feels like there's not even a case on your phone feels good in the hand it's not slippery the buttons on the side are easily accessible no problems there if we look at the case from the side you can see that there's an Ever So slight raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case and it like doesn't add any any bulk to the phone whatsoever it's just as thin as before you put the case on it we have our cutouts on the bottom you can very easily access your SP pen again we have the exposed sides for your buttons looks really nice with the natural titanium and on the back check out that aramid fiber again like I said it's super smooth feels really nice and it doesn't show any fingerprints and we have this plastic ring around our camera lenses for some extra protection there too this case makes your phone as thin as possible while still adding some protection feels really nice in the hand I really like that and as I mentioned before this works even better with pitaka's mag safe accessories here I have one of their car chargers just take your phone Clips right onto the magnet and immediately starts to charge and as you can see on the back the Paka accessory sits perfectly with this case it doesn't go over on the camera lens so it sits flush with the case to give you a really nice hold on the mag safe accessory I've been using pacus cases now for quite a few years and they are definitely my go-to for minimalist cases what do you guys think about the Paka case would you pick one up let me know in the comments below and this case also does come in a couple different colors as well I just happen to have the black gray here we have rink's silicone magnetic case so let's see how much this case weighs 41 G it does have a nice soft silicone cover over the whole case it is pretty rigid on the back surrounded by a softer silicone type rubber on the inside of the case it has mag safe as well as some soft suede material feels really nice let's put our phone inside the case fits the phone very nicely again it's got that nice soft silicone type feel feels nice in the hand buttons are very clicky easily pressable on the sides if we take a look at the side of the case you can see it's got a raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case it also doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the phone on the bottom we have our cutouts as well as our S Pen on the side we have our silicone buttons on the back again it's got the nice soft silicone type feel doesn't show any fingerprints and we also do have a slight raised edge around our camera lenses very nice case and like I said before it's got mag safe built in so if you happen to have a MAG safe accessory like this power bank here you can simply clip it onto the back and it'll start to charge your phone it also has a nice strong hold on the case so you don't have to worry about your mag safe accessory just falling off the Pham now the one thing you might notice about this silicone case when you get it is the buttons on the side here the Silicon thinner than the rest of the case as well as the bottom piece here but all the rest of the case has a very solid Edge on the phone but it's very nice soft silicone case then here we have the fusion bolt case it's a very nice light case it also has a hard polycarbonate back surrounded by a TPU type material on the side shows off the color of your phone let's see how much this case weighs 35 34 G 35 GR so before you put your phone inside the case you're going to want to peel off this protective cover and we can put our phone inside the case and then you can also peel off the backing looks really nice on the phone feels very good in the hand it's got some texture on the sides to help with grip buttons are very clicky on the sides easily pressable if we look at it from the side you can see that it's got a raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case it also doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the Pham here we have the texture on the sides we have our lard hole at the bottom we have our cutouts on the bottom you can easily access your S Pen we have the same texture on the other side with the lanyard hole our power button and our volume rockers on the back again shows off the color of your phone looks really nice doesn't seem to show fingerprints very well still nice and clean and we also do have a slight raised edge around our camera lenses so that's a pretty nice case I like the contrast between the clear and the black edges looks pretty cool and then here we have the rinky Fusion bold case but this one has a MAG SAA ring let's see how much this case weighs 37 G again before you put your phone inside you want to peel off the protector then we'll put our phone inside the case and peel off the back all right so not only does this have a MAG safe ring but it has a matte back that looks nice feels really nice and smooth very cool I like this case so it's got all the same properties as the Bold feels good in the hand has the texture on the side keeps the phone nice and slim but on the back it's got the nice smooth polycarbonate with the mag saering that's pretty sleek and this doesn't show pretty much fingerprints at all so now if you want to use a MAG safe accessory like we have this mag safe power bank you can clip it onto the back it'll charge your phone and it's got a nice strong hold on the case as well so you don't have to worry about your mag safe accessory just falling off that is nice if I was going to get the Bold case I would definitely get this one I I really love matte cases it just looks so much sleeker and you don't have to worry about any fingerprints and then here we have the rinky Fusion X case this case weighs 37 G it's also got the nice clear back surrounded by the accented black color on the sides it is made of hard polycar carbonet on the back and a softer type TPU on the sides this is definitely one of my favorite rinky cases because not only does it offers some pretty good protection but it also keeps your phone pretty slim so again before you put your phone in you want to peel off these protectors on the inside put our phone inside the case and then peel off the back protector so this case feels really nice in the hand and as you can see it's got reinforcements in the corners for some better drop protection there the buttons on the side are also easily clickable very nice if you look at it from the side you can see it's got a raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case on the side we have that texture for grip the reinforcements in the corners our landard hole at the bottom our cutouts on the bottom you can very easily access the S Pen we have our serrated power button on the side and kind of like slanted volume buttons on the back you can see it shows off the color of your phone and it's got these little bumpers all in every corner so when you put your phone on its back and you're typing the phone doesn't rock all over the place we also have a raised edge around our camera lenses for protection there too yeah this is a really nice protective case if you don't want something super bulky but something that does offer your phone some protection more than just regular cases I would definitely recommend the fusion X and here's the fusion X in a camo color this one looks really cool I actually used this for quite a few phones in the past years and I absolutely love it I really like the camo texture on the back and it does have like a texture to it too unlike the clear one so if you like camo Fusion X camo is definitely the way to go and depending on which color phone you got the color will show through with that camo too and it looks really cool then here we have the rinky Onyx design case this is the graffiti 2 let's see how much this case weighs 41 grams so if you want to add a little style to your case they kind of have a little graffiti on here which looks pretty cool this is a all TPU type case there's no hard plastic on this case it's got a really cool textured back doesn't show any fingerprints let's put our phone inside the case I've also used the rinky Onyx case on some of my past devices as well and it's it was great for me feels really good in the hand got some grip to it buttons are nice and clicky easily pressable if we look at the phone from the side you can see it's got the same raised edges on the top and the bottom it also keeps the phone pretty slim we have our texture on the side here Lage hole on the bottom cutouts we also can easily access the S Pen on the other side we have that same texture with another landard hole our power and volume buttons on the back again got that cool graffiti with a nice like kind of like roughish texture doesn't show any fingerprints and we also have some raised edges around our camera lenses as well really nice case if you're just looking for some you know minimal protection for your phone keep it nice and slim I definitely do like the Onyx too and then here we have the same Onyx case but in a blue color looks pretty cool and then here we have the rinky Onyx case with mag safe built in see how much this case weighs 44 G so if you love the Onyx case you're definitely going to love this because it has mag safe built in so you you can use all of your iPhone mag safe accessories fits the phone very well feels good in the hand buttons are nice and clicky easily pressable if we look at the case from the side you can see it's got the same raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case we have that same texture on the side with our lanyard hole our cutouts on the bottom you can very easily access the S Pen we have a texture on the side with our power button and our volume buttons if you look at the back it's got that really cool texture doesn't show any fingerprints and we have raised edges around our camera lenses then if you happen to have a MAG safe accessory like we have this power bank here Clips onto the back and starts to charge your phone this case also has a nice hold on the mag safe so you don't have to worry about the mag safe accessory just falling off very nice minimalist case and I'm happy to see that they've added the mag safe ring too I probably would say that I would add the mag safe ring option for every case that rinky sells because they do have some cases that I would love to see the mag safer ring on like the fusion X and then here we have the rinky Fusion clear case so this is a totally clear case it's has a hard polycarbonate backing surrounded by a softer TPU material let's see what the weight is on this case 33 G and before you put your phone in you're going to want to take out these protectors put our phone inside fits the phone really good shows off the color of your phone on the crystal clear backing feels nice in the hand it's got some grip to it buttons are nice and clicky easily pressable if we look at it from the side you can see it's got a raised Edge all the way around the screen we also do have some little reinforcements in the edges here for some drw protection it also doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the phone we have our cutouts on the bottom you can easily access your S Pen we have our lanyard holes in the bottom corners power button volume buttons then if we look at the back of the case you can see it shows off the color of your phone it does pick up some fingerprints but not too bad and the camera lenses are flush with the case so no camera protection on the back of this case if you're into clear cases and showing off the color of your phone this is a really nice case then here we have the rinky Fusion matte clear case so this is just like the rinky Fusion clear case but it has a mat back so it doesn't show those fingerprints it's about 32 33 G again you're going to want to peel off the inside protector put our phone inside the case this is one of my favorite rinky cases I'm very partial to the matte look so once you have your phone in there peel off the back cover and there you can see that nice matte look it looks just like the matte glass that's on the back of the phone so the phone feels good in the hand it's got some grip to it buttons again nice and clicky if we look at it from the side you can see that it does have a raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case doesn't add really much bulk to the phone at all lard holes in the bottom cutouts here you can easily access your S Pen we have the little reinforcements in the corners again along with the lanyard hole on the other side we have our power and volume buttons and on the back again shows off the color of your phone but in a nice matte look doesn't show any fingerprints and again the camera lenses are flush with this case so no camera protection here definitely one of my favorite cases I love the matte look and I would love to see the mat on a lot of the other cases that are totally clear then here we have esrs kickstand case so the first case we're going to take a look at is their kickstand case and as you can see it is totally clear it's got a nice hard polycarbonate back surrounded by a softer TPU rubber on the sides and we also have a full metal kickstand super solid it's not flimsy it pretty much stays in any orientation you're going to put it in and it easily Clips back into the case you don't have to worry about this kickstand coming out because it's really in there now let's see how much this case weighs 42 G and this case also is military GD drop tested so you know if you happen to drop your phone from a good height it's going to be protected so let's put our phone inside the case goes on the phone really well feels good in the hand buttons on the side are nice and clicky easily pressable and if we take a look at the side you can see that there is a raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case we also have a landard hole in the bottom here there's just a little bit of extra bulk because of the kickstand bump on the bottom and in the corners we have these little reinforcements in case you happen to drop your phone on the corners your phone will be protected as well on the bottom we have our cutouts you you can easily access your SP pen on the other side we have the power button and our volume rockers and on the back shows off the color of your phone we have that metal kickstand again and there is a raised edge around our camera lenses really nice case I always really like a case that includes a kickstand because when you're eating launch or something like that and you want to watch something on your phone instead of having a prop up on something you have a portable kickstand with you now you can see this case doesn't have mag safe built in but if you want to wirelessly charge you can still do that and let's take another look at that kickstand as you can see you can put the phone down in a landscape mode or you can even stand it up if you need to maybe take some Zoom calls or something like that again this stand is very sturdy you don't have to worry about it just flopping all over the place it's going to stay in pretty much any position you put it in and to show you what I mean about it not just flopping around you can also put it on its back to where the kickstand is laying down and then you can kind of angle the phone more towards your face however you need and it doesn't just fall down back into the case this is a really nice kickstand and then here we have esrs flick stand stand case so here is the flick stand case as you can see it's got a nice matte back to keep down those fingerprints we also have mag safe built in and this case also has a metal kickstand too pretty cool idea Clips back into the case it does have a nice firm polycarbonate backing again surrounded by a rubber TPU so we put our let's let's see how much this case weighs 58 grams let's put our phone inside the case fits the phone really well feels good in the hands got kind of like a smooth rubber type feel to it buttons on the side are nice and clicky very easily pressable if we look at the case from the side you can see it's got a raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case it also doesn't add really any extra bulk to the phone we also have those same reinforced Corners as the other clear kickstand did so if you drop your phone on its quarter it will be protected and again like I said this case is military grade drop tested we have our lanyard holes in the bottom corner we have our cutouts on the bottom again you can very easily access your SP pen on the side we have our power and volume buttons and on the back again it's got that nice frosted look to show off the color of your phone we have that metal kickstand our mag safe ring and we also have a raised edge around our camera lenses for protection there too now if you happen to have a power bank a power puck or something like that that uses mag safe you can still use this case like I have the ESR a power bank right here you can simply put it on its back Clips onto the back of the case and starts to charge your phone and also the mag safe accessory on the back has a pretty good strong hole so you don't have to worry about the mag safe accessory just falling off this also works with regular wireless charging as well you don't necessarily have to have a MAG safe accessory to charge your phone and then this kickstand comes out really easily from the bottom again you can stand your phone up in a portrait mode or a landscape and the phone is pretty much angled right towards your face from the get go so that's pretty nice you can't rotate uh the the kickstand just kind of opens and Clos but again it's made of metal it's not flimsy it's going to stay in pretty much any orientation you put your phone which is really nice and then it just snaps back into place really nice case uh again I love the fact that they Incorporated the kickand and I also do have an iPhone where I use mag safe accessories so it's really nice to see that they Incorporated that into this case as well and that Matt back I if you watch any of my other reviews I always say that I love the map backing again it keeps the fingerprints down it feels nice and smooth and it looks like the glass on the back of the phone and here we have esrs hybrid case so here is ESR hybrid case again it is clear just like the other clear one we showed before but this case doesn't have a kickstand built in it just has mag saafe it does have a nice hard backing surrounded Again by a softer rubbery type TPU material on the sides this case has also been military grade drop tested so your phone will be protected if you happen to drop it from you know about waist height feels nice in the hand it's got a good grip to it buttons on the side are nice and clicky if we look at it from the side you can see it's got the same raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case the case is also pretty slim as well we have your lanyard hole in the bottom corner again we have those reinforcements in the in all the corners of the case for extra drop protection we have our cutouts on the bottom you can easily access your Spen again on the other side we have our power button and our volume buttons on the back shows off the color of your phone we have our mag saering and again it's got the raised edges around your camera lenses for protection there too now like I mentioned before if you happen to have a MAG safe power bank or some sort of charger especially this one by ESR this one not only charges your phone Clips onto the back charges your phone pretty quickly and again it's got a nice strong magnetic hold on your case but this power bank also acts as a kickstand as well so you can use it in portrait or landscape mode if you need while it's charging your phone and it holds some credit cards your ID or whatever so it's definitely a nice option to go along with this case because it does not have a kickstand built in so definitely a good pair ing esrs clear cases also do have anti- yellowing properties so they shouldn't yellow as fast as some of the other cheaper clear cases and then here we have esrs armor series case so this case is a two-piece design it does have a inner layer surrounded by a harder ouo shell and it comes with two options it comes with one inner layer that has a built-in film screen protector or you can use the inner portion that allows you to use your own tempered glass screen protector or even the one that ESR makes and this also comes with some camera lens protectors as well so your phone is going to be protected 360° so we're going to test out the one with the built-in screen protector so the first thing you're going to want to do is to thoroughly clean off your screen before we install the top layer then we're going to take our top layer we need to peel off the inner portion just like that we also need to remove the stick on the inside try not to touch the inner screen if you can and then take this whole thing put it over the top of your phone and press it into place you're also going to want to take your thumb and push down on this little ring here where the fingerprint sensor is we want we don't want to see any bubbles in that little portion now when you first get your case you're going to need to take out the inner layer that's already in the case and then before we put this inside the inner case we're going to install our our camera lens protectors so you want to make sure that you thoroughly clean off your camera lenses as well and then dry them off then take your camera lens protectors and kind of line them up the way that they are on the phone then we're going to peel off the backing place this over your camera lenses and just press them into place and then lift up on the guide and you're all set now take this whole piece here and put it inside inside the outer shell just work your way around and get the rubber Outer Edge to clip on to the inner portion and we're all set looks really nice feels good in hand and this is the best drop protection that you're going to be able to get from ESR this surpasses military grave drop testing and your phone is covered front side back even the camera lenses as you can see those protectors fit perfectly with inside this case buttons on the side easily clickable very nice on the front here you can see that it does have a cutout for your selfie camera and we also have some cutouts for the speaker as well there's also some pretty good reinforcements in the corners for extra drop protection if we look at the case from the side you can see that there's a edge around the whole front of the screen it also doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the phone which is nice we have our lanyard hole on the bottom corner here we have our cutouts on the bottom we also have a covered charging port so you don't have to worry about any dust or anything getting in here it's I have no fingernails so it's hard for me to get it open but there it is you can also access your Spen very easily on the other side we have our power and volume buttons on the back it's got that nice soft smooth matte feel just like the foam we also have a metal kickstand and we have a raised Edge for some extra protection for our camera lenses too and as you can see the protectors fit perfectly within the case then for our kickstand you can easily pull that up again it's made of all metal it's not flimsy so it's not going to just flop all over the place and you can put your phone down in a landscape mode you can even angle it more towards your fate if face if you really need to and you can also stand your phone up in a portrait mode as well and then once you're done it Clips right back into the back of the case now as far as the Touch goes on the screen here it is pretty smooth there is a little bit of resistance because it's not glass but it's still fairly smooth so you can see touch is working fine let's test out our fingerprints that's one two three fingerprints are working fine but if you're having issues with your fingerprints just re-register them and maybe even turn up the sensitivity on the display and you should have no problems as you can see it's Crystal Clear again touch is working perfectly fine you can easily access the bottom of the screen as well as the top and let's see what the screen looks like if you're looking at it through polarized sunglasses and as you can see there's like barely any rainbow effect very nice so the screen still stays pretty clear now let's test out our S Pen so the S Pen works perfectly on this case there is a pretty good bit of resistance because it's not glass but again the S Pen works perfectly fine on this screen and even even though this case doesn't have a MAG safeer ring you can still wirelessly charge right through the case so again if you're looking for the best draw protection or overall protection possible for your phone the Armor Series case is definitely one you're going to want to take a look at so here we have the mouse thin PC forest green case so this case is made more for a minimalist who wants to keep their phone super slim but still adds some protection to the back and the sides this also has mag safe built in and it's got a microfiber lining on the inside to help keep the back of your phone scratch free so let's see how much this case weighs 33 G it does feel pretty solid it's got a nice hard backing as well as hard sides so let's put our phone inside the case fits the phone really well feels nice in the hand it's got kind of like a smooth type of silicone matte feel to it definitely feels like I'm just holding the phone it's so slim very nice if we look at the case from the side you can see that there's an Ever So slight raised Edge on the top and the bottom of this case it also keeps the phone super slim it's probably about as as thick as it was before I put the case on it we have our cutouts on the bottom you can very easily access your S Pen we have our cutouts on the side for our power button and our volume buttons now the buttons are slightly recessed into the case so they don't protrude out so you're going to have to kind of press just a tiny bit more it's it's fine if you're holding the phone in your hand like this you can very easily access the buttons but if the phone's in your pocket you might have a little harder time trying to find the buttons on the side of the case if you look at the back it's got that matte green look to it it also keeps down the f fingerprints feels nice and smooth and it seems like there's just a very slight raised edge around our camera lenses for protection there too now again this case does have mag safe so if you have a MAG safe accessory like I have here we have our power bank Clips onto the back starts to charge your phone immediately as you can see it sits nice and flush with the case and it's got a pretty good strong hold on the back of the case as well so you don't have to worry about your mag accessory just falling off this also does work with regular wireless charging as well so this case isn't going to offer you very much drop protection like some of the other cases I'm going to be showing you in this review but this is more for people who want to add a little protection to protect the back of their phone as well as the sides from maybe some scratches and some very light drops but it's still a really nice case and then here we have the Mouse Limitless 5.0 case in leather black so here is the case as you can see on the back it's got that nice black leather it also smells exactly like leather too now this case is going to give you more of that drw protection that we saw in that video because it's got this Arrow gel on the inside of the case as you can see in the green it's lined on the inside of the case so if you happen to drop your phone it's going to be absorbed by this first before it gets to your phone this also has mag safe built in let's see how much this case weighs 51 gr so we'll put our phone inside the case fits the phone perfectly feels good in the hand it's got kind of like a little slight texture to it on the sides so it gives it a little better grip buttons are also very easily pressable nice and tactile I like that if you look at the case from the side you can see that it it's got a much greater uh raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case so it's definitely going to protect your phone even if you happen to put a temporary glass screen protector on the front if you look at the side you can see it's got this little kind of texture with the serration we have our lanyard hole and it really doesn't add much extra bulk to the phone we have our cutouts on the bottom very easily access your S Pen because it's got a nice little well there kind of kind of chamfered on the side on the other side we have our power button and our volume buttons with that texture in the lanyard holes on the back shows off that black leather feels nice and smooth doesn't seem to show fingerprints like some of the other cases so that's definitely a plus and we have a raised Edge to help protect our camera lenses too and again this case has mag safe built-in so we'll take our mag safe power bank clip it onto the back and it charges your phone you can also use this with regular wireless charging as well and as you can see the mag safe accessories sit flush with this case it's also got that same strong hold as the other cases do so your mag saave accessories is not going to just fall off so this is going to be one of the cases that are going to give you some really good draw protection now because it does have that prominent raised Edge on the bottom of the case we'll do some swipe tests so if I want to swipe from the bottom up you can very easily do that or you need to go back and get some previous windows you can do that too it's not a problem you just your finger just kind of goes down and into the little well so it's not a huge deal same thing with the top you can swipe down from the top fairly easily so it should shouldn't really be an issue now let's test out our S Pen I don't see any issues with writing on the screen even though the case has mag safe built in so you should be fine then here we have the Limitless 5.0 case this is definitely one of my favorite Mouse cases to date it's got the 1500 Aid fiber backing super smooth very nice and strong case and this case also again has that Arrow gel all the way around the inside of the case to give you that really good draw protection this case also does have mag safe built in and it's got that nice smooth soft felt on the inside to help keep your phone from getting all scratched up now let's see how much this case weighs should be around 50 gram 51 grams so we'll put our phone inside the case absolutely love this case feels really good in the hand just like the black leather one it's got kind of like a subtle kind of texture on the sides to help with grip buttons again super clicky very easy to press again on the side it's got that prominent raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case for screen protection and it really doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the phone either we have that kind of textured serration on the side with our lanard hole our cutouts on the bottom again you can very easily access your SP pen on the other side we have the texture with the serration and the lanyard hole our volume and power buttons on the side and on the back it's got that air mid fiber really nice keeps down the fingerprints as well and just feels so cool looks really premium as well and we have the slight raise edge around our camera lenses too and again like I said this case has mag safe so we can put our mag safe power bank on the B on the back and it'll start to charge our phone and it's got that same nice strong hold as the other cases do so again like I said this is my fa this is one of my favorite cases this is the Limitless 5.0 with the air mid fiber backing so here we have soup case's UB Pro case so this is their new Bumble color this looks so cool it's got kind of like a gunmetal back with like a fluorescent yellow accent that looks really nice it also comes with this really nice belt clip where you can put the phone face in or face out whichever one you prefer and it's also a two-piece design it's got this inner liner that comes out that you put the phone that you put on the phone phone then you put the whole piece inside the case and it also comes with another piece that has a built-in screen protector now if you are going to be using the portion that has the built-in screen protector make sure you thoroughly clean off your phone screen before you put this on and let's see how much this case weighs 91 G so now that our phone screen is cleaned we're going to peel off the inside protector also peel off this little piece in the inside just like that and then just place this over the top of your phone and then take this whole thing and put it inside the Case press in all the sides and then you can peel off the top protector there we go as you can see see it's nice and clear there's a cutout for your camera as well as some speaker grills on the top you want to make sure that there are no bubbles in this little fingerprint sensor so just press that down it feels really nice in the hand it's got some a smooth rubber type feel buttons on the side are very easily pressable if we take a look at it from the side you can see it's got a raised Edge all the way around the front of the screen now as you can see it does add some considerable bulk to the phone but it's also very protective on the side we have that texture for grip on the bottom we have our covered charging port and you can also access your S Pen on the side we have that same texture with a textured power button and our volume buttons on the back again it's got that really cool design got some carbon fiber inlay at the top and a very hard part polycarbonate backing that does not show fingerprints we also have a raised edge around our camera lens lenses for protection there and we also have a built-in kickstand so you can use your phone in a portrait mode or you can lay it down in a landscape and then when you're done it easily stows right back into the case with a little clip I always love the UB Pro cases it's very protective and it comes with the belt clip so if you want the best drop protection for your phone I would go with the UB Pro the case also comes in a blue blish tilt color and it also comes in this other new pattern that's called blocks looks pretty interesting so now let's test out our fingerprints fingerprints seem to be working just fine and if your fingerprints aren't working correctly just re-register them and turn up the sensitivity for your phone and you should be just fine now as you can see the the screen does collect some fingerprints but you can fairly easily wipe those away so not a big issue there touch also working fine on this screen you can easily access the bottom of the phone or the top and if you want to slide from the sides that's not a problem either now let's test out our S Pen so the S Pen writes perfectly fine on the screen here but there is a good bit of resistance it's not very fun to write on this it kind of feels like you're writing on some very fine sandpaper it's it's a little kind of rough but it still works and then here we have the soup case mag XT case let's see how much the case weighs 70 9 G now this definitely has to be my favorite case not only does it have mag safe built in but it has this nice metal camera cover that also acts as a kickstand and this is a really protective case but it also keeps your phone as Slim as possible while maintaining a good drop protection it's definitely a lot Slimmer than the UB Pro it's got a hard polycarbonate backing surrounded by a softer rubbery material on the inside of the case it is nice and smooth and it's got some metal lining on the inside as well put our phone inside the case fits the phone really well feels nice in the hand it does not feel bulky at all buttons on the side very clicky easily pressable I love the accented red color it looks so cool if you look at it from the side you can see that it's got a very prominent raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case and also as you can see it doesn't really add a lot of extra bulk to the phone we have that texture on the side for some grip carbon fiber inlays on the side and the corners are also very reinforced for draw protection on the bottom we have our cutouts you can easily access your S Pen on the other side again we have those accented power and volume buttons which looks amazing on the back it's got that really cool red again we have that metal camera cover that is very sturdy it stays in any position you put it and it's got a soft felt on the inside and there's also a very prominent raised Edge all the way around your cameras so even if you have the camera cover open your cameras are still very protective and I love that the camera cover pretty much folds flat with the case and out of the way now again the only thing with this type of case is if you're using a MAG safe power bank like I am here you're not going to really be able able to use it straight on you're going to have to put it on an angle to charge your phone if you put it face on it might stick in place and kind of charge the phone but as you can see it's not flush with the case so you're not getting a very good strong solid connection but if you take the mag safe battery and you angle it like this it Clips right onto the back immediately charges your phone it's flush with the case and it's got a super strong hold on the case you don't have to worry about the mag safe battery just coming off it's on there really good so if you happen to have one of those pucks it'll fit perfectly on here but if you're using the power bank again that's what you're going to be dealing with this also does work perfectly fine with regular wireless charging as well and then like I said you can also use the camera cover as a kickstand so you can lay it down in a landscape kind of angle it more towards you for you know YouTube or Netflix and you can also have the phone stand up in a portrait mode as well awesome case I absolutely love this and we also have that mag XT case in a tilt color as well as you can see the camera cover is silver on this looks really cool so here we have the vrs design Glide ultimate case as you can see this case is pretty industrial looking it does have a camera cover on the back to keep your camera lenses protected from scratches and dust and just dirt in general it can also be used as a kickstand and it's also got a really cool automatic card holder case on the back that you're probably going to end up using as a fidget toy like I do on the inside here you can see the clear design with all your credit cards and it can hold up to four cards in the back on the inside here you can see it's got a clear design so you can see all your cards and everything's pretty much smooth plastic on the inside inside so let's put our phone inside the case case fits the phone very nicely feels nice and solid in the hand it's got these kind of textures on the side so you can very easily grip the phone buttons are nice and clicky easily accessible if we look at the case from the side you can see how much of a raised Edge it's got on the top and the bottom and the sides of the case for protection and it also adds a a pretty good amount of bulk to the phone but you're getting that card holder case on the back we also have reinforced corners for drw protection and if you look at the bottom of the case you can see that it's got this little extra plastic protrusion that comes out from the bottom of the phone that will protect the phone from drops because it won't even touch your phone if it hits this bottom we also have these little Clips on the bottom of the case to for use with the Carabiner clip that comes with this case it's got a really nice nylon strap and then again you've got that car on the bottom that you can put through one of these holes and clip into place and you can clip it onto your book bag and I have something to hold your phone and then you can see on the bottom here it's got a little cutout for your S Pen that you can access it's a little bit harder than normal but you can still get it out if you look at the other side you can see it's got that same textured feel as well as our power and volume buttons on the side side on the back again it's got that really cool industrial design with our card holder that can hold up to four cards and we have that camera lens cover that you can easily open up like that to take some pictures very nice covers your cameras from dust and just getting all scratched up and it's also got a nice raised edge around your camera lenses for protection there too and like I mentioned before you can also use this like a kickstand so you can put it in a landscape mode so you can kind of watch some uh YouTube or Netflix you can put it in two different orientations one where it's kind of angled more towards you know your body or you can lay it down to where it's angled more towards your face and you can also stand it up in a portrait mode as well to maybe take some Zoom calls if you need or you can also lay it down to where it's angled more towards your face it's pretty versatile works pretty good very nice and solid it is made of plastic but again like I said it is it's a solid piece and it's not going to just flop around and then that card holder case I'm telling you if you have this case you're probably going to end up just opening and closing this card holder case like I do it's just kind of like a a fidget toy but we'll put in our credit cards see what that looks like so we got one card two card three card and then a fourth card with some embossment on it and it easily closes up with those cards in it so no problems there you can mix and match you know flat and emboss cards like that and then if you need to get it out you can kind of just you know get your finger in there and then pull out some cards not a problem it's very nice that it holds up to four cards because you know you want you might want to carry your ID and some credit cards and you know something else so it's definitely very versatile now the one thing about this case is is it does not wirelessly charge with with credit cards in the back as you can see nothing's happening so let's take the cards out and we'll see if we can still wirelessly charge because this is a thicker case and it doesn't seem to be charging it's just too thick so if you typically use wireless charging for your phone you're not going to be able to use it with this case so that is a really cool case and again that was the Glide ultimate and then here we have the Glide Pro case in its black Groove color this case still gives you the same card holder option as the Glide ultimate but it's not as bulky we got that really nice texture on the back card holder and it looks like it's got metal on the top and the bottom as well to give it kind of like a really cool Sleek look and it's still kind of industrial looking on the inside here it's got a yellow plastic for the card holder and a smooth plastic for the rest of the case it's surrounded by a hard plastic on the back and a softer TPU on the sides let's put our phone inside the case fits the phone very nicely feels good in the hand it's not slippery buttons are easily accessible on the back if we take it a look at it from the side you can see that it does have a prominent raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case and and it's got a little Edge on the sides on the side of the case we have that serration for grip as well as our lanyard holes on the bottom we have our cutouts as well as the portion for your SP pen that you can easily access on the other side we have that serration again along with our power button and our volume buttons on the back we have a card holder case with that kind of texture and it's also got a raised edge around our camera lenses for section there too but if you put if you put your phone on its back it's not going to actually touch the camera lenses anyway because of the card holder bump but there's still Extra Protection there as well again just like the Glide ultimate this has that automatic sliding card holder case which you're probably going to be just playing around with most of the time but this can also hold for cards so we'll put our cards in here one one two three and four and it closes up very easily it's a very nice card holder case out of all the cases I've ever done a review on this has to have the nicest card holder case that I've seen I just like playing with it too so the same thing with this case you're not going to be able to wiress ly charge if you typically do so I have the cards in the back so now I'll take the cards out and we'll test the wireless charging again so if you want to wirelessly charge you're not going to be able to do it with this case but you're still getting the added bonus of the card holder so it's a little bit of a tradeoff and here we have iaz On's Cosmo SP case so this is the cosmo SP case in a checker I also have a couple other cases that do have some different patterns and this year they've included a camera cover as well that also doubles as a kickstand which I absolutely love it's also got a built-in screen protector as well so your phone is protected front and back let's see how much this case weighs 71 G now because this has a built-in screen protector before we begin you want to clean off your screen really well once you clean off your screen you're going to want to peel off the inner protector and remove this little portion that says peel off but try not to touch the inner portion of the screen then take this whole thing put it over your phone press it into place you can rub down this little uh fingerprint sensor portion right here because we don't want any bubbles there then take this whole piece place it inside the outer portion of the case just press it into place and then peel off the top layer we can also peel off the back layer of the case too and there you go feels really nice the hand it does have some grip to it buttons are easily pressable nice and clicky and if you take a look at the case from the side you can see that it does have a raised Edge all the way around the phone screen for protection there it's also got some extra protection in the corners we have our landard hole in the corner here we have our cutouts on the bottom you can very easily access your SP pen we have our power button and our volume buttons on the other side on the back it's got that Checker pattern looks pretty cool we also have this camera ring that is made of plastic but it's very sturdy and you can just open it up like that it's got some nice soft felt here to keep your camera lenses nice and safe and it's very sturdy even though it's made of plastic it's really solid and it stays in place but we also have a a very good sized ring that's raised above the camera lenses for protection there so if you happen to just leave this open your camera lenses will be protected if if you happen to put your phone on its back and like I mentioned before you can also use this as a kickstand whether it be in a landscape or you can even use it in a portrait mode and then when you're done you just simply close it up just like that very nice case you can also use this with regular wireless charging now as you can see the the screen does pick up some fingerprints but you can very easily just wipe those away the screen is nice and clear as far as touch it's somewhat smooth but there is some resistance when you run your finger over it because it is plastic it does have a cutout for your your camera and your speaker grills Let's test out our fingerprints fingerprints seem to be working yep fingerprints work fine if you have problems with your fingerprints just re-register them and maybe turn up the sensitivity for the display and you shouldn't have any problems you can also easily access the bottom here if you need or the top no problem touch working perfectly fine and then if you use polarized sunglasses let's see what that looks like so as you can see the screen is pretty clear not doesn't really have any rainbow effect but the little sensor the fingerprint sensor does look like a hologram so let's Let's test out our Spen but I will tell you that if you don't have fingernails it's a little difficult to get the S Pen out so the Spen seems to be working just fine on the screen but there is a good bit of resistance it kind of feels like you're writing on like really fine sandpaper I don't particularly like that because it's not glass there there's a good bit of resistance so that's a pretty nice protective case I really love the fact that they included a camera cover this year because that definitely add some features and protection to your phone we also have that same case in a marble color this one has mag safe built in and it's got that same uh camera cover but it's got like a pink accent for this now for the mag safe if you're not using a little puck but you happen to have a power bank like this if you put it on here it has to be kind of off center just like this because of the way that the camera cover comes down if you were to put it over like this it's not really going to fit on the case and there's like this huge gap so it's going to have to be put in like this but the magnet is on there pretty good and it will still charge your phone it's just not going to be able to be put on there straight and then here is the other case called blue fly it's got the butterfly pattern and again it's got the mag safe built-in with a silver camera cover and just like the marble if you have a MAG safe power bank like this you're going to have to put it on kind of at an angle for it to fit properly and charge your phone and then here we have I blaz On's armor box case this is definitely my favorite case it also comes in different colors in case you don't like the green but this has a magsafe ring built in it looks kind of industrial it's got the carbon fiber inlay we also have this camera cover that is made of metal it's also got the soft felt on the inside and it's got a built-in screen protector as well it's super protective very reinforced in the corners so if you happen to drop your phone it's definitely going to be protected so again because this does have a built-in screen protector you want to make sure you thoroughly clean off your screen really well then peel off the protector from the inside and peel off this little piece here then just place this over the top of your phone and press it into place make sure there's no bubbles over the fingerprint sensor then take this whole piece put it inside the outer layer then you can remove this protective top layer and there we go feels really nice in the hand it's got some like Smooth rubber feel to it with some texture buttons on the side are very easily pressable and clicky as you can see the corners are very reinforced for drop protection if you look at the side you can see that there's an a raised Edge all the way around the front of the phone and it does add some extra bulk to the phone as well but it's very protected we have that texture on the side for grip we have our covered charging port on the bottom here so no dust or anything will get in there you can also easily access your S Pen on the other side we have that same texture with our power and our volume buttons and if we take a look at the back again it's got that industrial type look with the mag safe ring and that metal camera cover the nice thing about that is you can also fold it flat against the case and it's not protruding out from the side like some other cases I've reviewed it's also got a very prominent raised edge around your camera lenses so it also has a very prominent camera ring all the way around your camera lenses so if you don't close the cover your camera should still really be protected now the only thing with this case is if you're going to use mag safe and you have a power bank like this you're going to have to put it on an angle for it to work properly so if I put this on the back of the phone kind of like this it does kind of hold in place but as you can see it's not flush and it kind of moves around so if you want to fit this properly very to have it hold strong on your case you're going to have to put it like this and it will still charge your phone but it's going to have to be kind of off at an angle because the way that the camera lenses are but it's still got a really super strong hold it is your mag safe accessor is not going to come off it's really nice and you can also use the camera cover as a kickstand so if you put your phone down in a landscape you can watch YouTube and you can also use your phone in a portrait mode as well my phone just fell but if you Pro if you put a properly you can use your phone in portrait mode as well it just kind of has to be in the middle you can also use it the other way around so it's kind of angled more towards your face too again like I said this is my favorite case if you want the best protection I would recommend the armor box but the cosmo series does also protect your phone pretty good too and here we have the poetic Spartan case let's see how much the Spartan case weighs 85 G this is one of Poetics most protective case it comes with a built-in screen protector and it's super beefy it's got a kick stand on the back and it also has a cover for your cameras one thing that I absolutely love that poetic does is they offer you an insert that has a built-in screen protector or they also offer you an insert that doesn't have anything in it so you could use your own screen protector this is a two-piece design case so this inner portion comes out with the screen protector you put it over your phone and then you put your phone with the insert back into the the outer case and it totally encases your phone so you just peel back the one corner pull out that insert it's got a nice hard backing surrounded by a softer TPU rubber now we are going to be testing out the insert with the screen protector built in so you want to make sure that you thoroughly clean off your screen on your phone before you install this because whatever is on your phone screen will be tra wrapped inside the case so once your screen is cleaned off you want to peel off the protective layer from the inside of the case and try to remove this little peel off sticker without touching the screen as you can see we do have a little circle and that's where the fingerprint sensor is going to be so take this whole piece put it over your phone making sure that the top cut camera cutout is on the camera on your phone press that into place and then take this whole piece and place it inside the outer layer just press it in and then take your finger and smooth out this little uh fingerprint here you don't want to have any bubbles there and then once that's done you can peel off the outer protector and there we go your phone is now protected 360° you've got your little cutout for your selfie camera we also have some cutouts for the speaker Grill feels really nice in the hands got a nice soft rubber type feel to it buttons on the side are easily accessible nice and clicky if we look at the case from the side you can see that the whole case has a raised Edge to help protect the screen we have a little serration on the side to help with grip now as you can see it does add some extra bulk to the phone but your phone is very protected now especially from drops on the bottom we have our cutouts the charging port is covered so no dust or anything gets in there you can still easily access your S Pen we have those reinforced edges for drops we have that texture on the side with our power and volume buttons on the back again we have that camera cover that you can easily slide over to cover your cameras if you want to or you can just leave it open it snaps in place and it's not going to move around we also have a nice raised edge around our cameras for protection there and again we have that kickstand it's got kind of like this like a leather like a leathery kind of texture on the inlays which looks really nice gives it a good contrast and then if you want to use the kickstand you just pop it open like that you can use your phone in a landscape mode it's kind of angled towards your face you can watch Netflix or YouTube and you can also use it in portraits so you can you know take some Zoom Zoom calls or something like that and when you're done it very easily stores right back into the case with a little snap I love the fact that they Incorporated this camera cover into their case it's just another nice added feature that doesn't add any extra bulk to the case but it adds features so now let's test out the screen protector so as you can see it is Crystal Clear touch seems to be working just fine as far as touch because it's not glass it does have a little bit of resistance when you run your finger over it but everything's still working perfectly fine you can still easily access the bottom as well if you need to you can access the top without issues now let's see what the screen looks like is if you were to use a polarized sunglasses you can see that fingerprint sensor hole that that's pretty funny the whole screen protector is totally clear except for the little fingerprint sensor that's that's pretty cool actually it's like a little hologram I've never seen that before so now let's test out our fingerprints so if you're having problems you probably want to re-register your fingerprints and that's what I'm going to do so fingerprints went in really easily now let's test them out that works fingerprint sensor seems to be working fine no problems so if you have problems with your fingerprints just re-register them and maybe turn on the extra sensitivity for the display and let's test out our S Pen so Spen seems to be working just fine with this screen but there is a good bit of resistance because it's not glass it's kind of rough uh actually on the screen and it actually writes just fine over the fingerprint sensor but the rest of the screen is I don't know it's kind of rough feels like you're kind of drawing on light sandpaper and if you want to use this with wireless charging no problems there so this is definitely a very nice protective case and if if you want to protect your phone with the best protection I would recommend getting the poetic Spartan and then here we have the poetic neon case and let's see how much the neon case weighs 60 G so here is the neon it's got a hard polycarbonate back surrounded by a softer rubbery type TPU material this is a two-piece design so your phone goes into the TPU and then the hard shell goes over that for back protection I really like how they have this accented orange ring it definitely gives a nice contrast to the case and these cases also have been military gray drop tested so we'll take apart the case we'll put our phone inside the inner layer first and then we'll take the outer shell and we'll place it over the top and press it into place fits really well feels nice in the hand it's got a kind of a grippy type feel to it buttons on the side easily pressable nice and clicky if we take a look at the case from the side you can see there's a raised Edge pretty much all the way around the case it doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the phone either we have a nice texture that's rubbery on the side and then that hard polycarbonate material on the bottom we have our cutouts you can easily access your S Pen we have our power buttons and our volume buttons which are separated I I love that on the back again you have that hard polycarbonate backing with a kind of like a texture on it it doesn't show any fingerprints which is nice we also have a raised edge around our camera lenses for protection there and it's got some exposed kind of rubber pieces over in the corner here so when you put your phone on its back it doesn't just slide all over the place which I absolutely love then you got this accented orange which is also kind of like a rubbery material so if you still want some good protection for your phone but not really as bulky as the Spartan the neon is definitely a good choice and this also works with regular wireless charging and then here we have the poetic neon mag Pro so this case is pretty much just like the regular neon but it has the added feature of this magnetic ring in the back it acts as a kickstand it's made of all metal and it's very sturdy so here I have my metal razor blade and as you can see it sticks right to the back of the case and that's good because you can stick this case with the phone in it to something that's metal so if you want to use it to take photos or videos of yourself while you're doing something you won't need a tripod we'll see how much this case weighs 69 gram we'll take the case apart we'll put her phone inside the rubbery portion and then put the hard polycarbonate back over the back and press it into place again feels just like the neon case I really like it it's nice and grippy buttons on the side are easily pressable and clicky it has that same raised Edge all the way around the phone and even with the kickstand it doesn't add that much extra bulk to the case we have that nice rubbery texture on the side we also have our cutouts on the bottom you can very easily access your S Pen and we have our power buttons and our volume buttons which are separated on the back again you have that hard polycarbonate material that has a texture and doesn't show fingerprints we also have a raised edge around our camera lenses we have those exposed rubber pieces on the side or if you put your phone on its back it won't just slide all over the place and we have that metal magnetic kickstand which I absolutely love so you can use your phone in a landscape mode to watch movies or you can also use it in a portrait to maybe take some Zoom calls or something like that and then it folds right back up into the case if I was going to get the neon case I would definitely just go ahead and get the neon mag Pro because who can't use a kickstand especially one that's magnetic so if you have a MAG safe accessory as well like this power bank here it'll also clip onto the back of the phone really strong and it starts to charge your phone like I said it's got a nice strong hold on the back too so you don't have to worry about your mag safe accessory just falling off and it's pretty flush with the case I love the fact that they Incorporated this magnet mag safe kickstand ring I mean like I said who can't use that why wouldn't you want the extra added feature of this kickstand I definitely would and it also protects your phone then here we have a minimalist Case by Thorn so like I mentioned before it comes in this really nice handmade wooden box it is covered in like that carbon fiber Aid fiber look very nice we open it up to the case itself this case is made from 600D aramid fiber it's a tightly woven air mid fiber and it looks really premium like I mentioned before it also comes with two tempered glass creen protectors and a couple installation packets so here is the case itself it is super light and arid fiber is nice and strong we also do have mag safe built in I don't know where they found the space to put mag safe but it's also in here now let's see how much the case weighs it feels super light it's only 23 gram so let's put our phone inside the case so the case fits really well on the phone and you feel more of the phone feel than you do the case but the case has a a good feel in the hand as well it's got a nice smooth aramid fiber on the sides and on the back the buttons are easily accessible because it has that cutout on the side if we look at the side of the phone you can see that it's got a slight raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case and look at how thin it is there's really not any extra bulk at all it's the phone is pretty much as Slim as it was before I put the case on we do have our cutouts on the bottom you can very easily access your S Pen on the other side we have that cutout for your volume buttons and your power button and if we look at the back you can see that it it's covered in that air mid fiber feels nice and smooth smooth looks really premium and it continues around the camera lenses as well the other thing I really like about this is it keeps down the fingerprints so you don't get a lot of you know smudges and dirt on the back and again it's got that mag safe built in so if you happen to have a MAG safe accessory like I have this mag safe power bank you can easily clip it onto the back it's got a nice strong hold and it starts to charge your phone immediately as you can see it sits flush with the case and it's got a really strong hold you don't have to worry about the mag safe accessory just falling off your phone really nice case again if you want to keep your phone super slim but still add some protection for the sides and the back this is definitely going to be a nice case so now let's install the front screen protector so the first thing we need to do is to thoroughly clean off our screen on our phone I would keep the case on your phone because it's going to help act as a guide for the installation for the screen protector then we'll dry it off then take one of your screen protectors I would put some guide stickers on the top of the screen protector just like this to give you something to hold on to for the installation then we're going to peel off the bottom protector and then grab onto those guide stickers to install it the best we can on our phone once it's in place you can run your finger down the middle of the screen protector and it should adhere to your phone the guide stickers just came off so I didn't even bother using those I just kind of placed it on the best I could with my hand we do have a couple bubbles you can try to get out with a credit card or even your finger just kind of push those out so I was able to get the bigger bubbles out with my finger but I did use a squeegee to kind of get out the smaller ones but there is the installation looks really nice it does cover your front camera so we're going to test that out but if we look at the side again we can see there is a still a slight raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case so now your phone is protected on the front the sides and the back as far as the touch feels nice and smooth just like the glass that's on the phone and for fingerprints it does seem to pick up very minor minimal fingerprints that you can very easily wipe away not bad so let's test out our fingerprints fingerprints seem to be working just fine and if you're having problems with your fingerprints just re-register them after you install the screen protector and maybe even turn on the sensitivity for your display but as you can see it is Crystal Clear looks really nice touch working perfectly fine no issues there s access the bottom and the top of the phone now let's do our polarized sunglass test so this kind of mimics what your screen looks like as if you were looking at the screen through polarized sunglasses and as you can see there is a slight rainbow effect but if you're looking at it dead on it's really not that bad it's just when you start twisting and turning the phone that there becomes more of a rainbow so not bad so now let's take a look at our camera camera looks nice and clear I don't see any issues there so as long as you keep the screen clean you shouldn't have any issues with your pictures now let's test out our S Pen Spen is working good on the screen protector there is a slight bit of resistance but I don't see any issues otherwise then here we have a case by casborn so here is the clear case looks really nice again we get two free tempered glass cream protectors and our installation packets let's see how much this case weighs 52 G and here is the case the case does have a hard polycarbonate backing with our mag safe built in and it's surrounded by a softer TPU material let's put our phone inside the case fits the phone really nice feels good in the hand it's got some grip to it as well as some texture on the sides to help with grip buttons are also easily pressable nice and clicky if we look at the case from the side you can see that it does have a raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case it also doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the phone but does add some protection in the corners we also have these little airbag bubbles to help with drop protection we have some textures on the side to help with grip on the bottom we have our cutouts you can very easily access your S Pen on the other side we have that same texture with some lanyard holes our power button and our volume buttons on the back shows off the color of your phone really nicely it doesn't seem to pick up very many fingerprints which is definitely a plus so it keeps your back nice and clean and shows off the color of your phone we have our mag safe ring built in and we also have some slight raised edges around our camera lenses as well looks like a really nice case now if you do have a MAG safe accessory such as this power bank here you can clip it right onto the back and it immediately starts to charge your phone the case also has a nice strong hold on your mag safe accessory as well so you don't have to worry about the mag safe accessory just falling off the back of your phone this case also works with regular wireless charging as well you don't have to have a MAG saave charger for it to work so that does seem like a really nice case this case also does have UV layers to help keep it from yellowing over time as well so I like the way that it feels in the hand I like that it has the extra Corner protection and the mag safe built in so now let's install that tempered glass screen protector so the first thing you're going to want to do is to thoroughly clean off your screen with the alcohol wipe I would leave the case on your phone to act as an installation guide then dry it off then take one of your screen protectors making sure the camera cutout is going towards the camera on your phone we're going to peel off the underside protector and then just install this on your phone the best you can the the screen should start to adhere to your phone immediately and you can kind of help it along with your finger as well I do have a couple bubbles on the screen that I'm going to get out with a squeegee so let's take a look so installation wasn't horrible it definitely could have been lined up a little better with installation guide but it does seem to fit pretty good on the phone there is a gap all the way around the screen for case compatibility I was able to get those few bubbles out I did get a little piece of hair underneath the screen protector at the bottom but it seems to fit pretty good we also do have a cutout for our camera on the top as far as the touch feels nice and smooth just like the glass that's on the phone as far as fingerprints it does pick up very minimal fingerprints I don't know if you guys can see that and you can very easily just wipe those away now let's test out our fingerprints fingerprints are working perfectly fine and if you're having problems with your fingerprints just re-register your fingerprints after you install the screen protector and maybe turn on the sensitivity for the display I really do like these buttons on the side they're very easily pressable and they're very clicky makes it very easy to find on the case as you can see the screen protector is crystal clear and touches working perfectly fine you can easily access the bottom of the phone as well as the top and now let's see what the screen looks like looking through the lenses of polarized sunglasses as you can see there's really not much of a rainbow effect which is definitely a plus so if you're looking at the phone pretty much straight on there's it's pretty clear very nice now let's test out our Spen S Pen seems to be working just fine with the screen there is a good bit of resistance as well but there's no issues using the Spen so here we have Samsung's silicone case let's see how much this case weighs 45 G so here is the case it's got a nice soft silicone type feel but it's very rigid it doesn't have any flexible Parts on the case itself now you would think on the inside it would have some sort of of microfiber but it doesn't it's just it's just a hard plastic which is kind of weird especially for Samsung so let's put our phone inside the case so it fits the phone very nice again it's got that nice soft silicone type feel buttons on the side are clicky easily accessible if we look at the case from the side it does have a slight raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case and it doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the phone we have our cutouts on the bottom our S Pen is easily accessible we have our power button and our volume buttons on the side which are also soft silicone and again we have the silicone on the back here it's nice and smooth it doesn't seem to show fingerprints which is definitely nice the only thing that I'm concerned about is the camera lenses are flush with the case so if you happen to put your phone on its back what ever you're putting it down on will definitely come in contact with these camera lenses so you may end up getting some scratches I'm not really sure but again they are flush with the case so no protection there whatsoever so let's see if this works with mag safe and it does not have any mag safe built in but it does work with regular wireless charging so my experience with these silicone cases is that the silicone will wear off after time and it'll just look horrible it'll look like these patches of silicone are missing and it when you try to put it in an out of your pocket it kind of gets caught on like the rubber silicone so my experience with the silicone cases aren't really that great um I'm not a huge fan of them then here we have the Samsung svw wallet case let's see how much this case weighs 73 grams this is one of the more heavier cases but it's still really not heavy it's just grams so let's take a look at the case itself the case does have a soft microfiber lining on the inside which is weird like I said the silicone case did not but this one does it does have a soft rubber TPU side to help with protecting drops we do have a little card holder inside here where you can put some cards or maybe some money we have a cutout for your front screen we have our buttons on the side which seemed to be separate from the case and it's got kind of like a like a leatherette type feel to it all right so let's put the phone inside the case fits the phone nicely and then if you close up the front cover should show a little clock in the little corner here that's pretty cool and you open up the cover shows the whole lock screen so that's pretty cool the only gripe that I have about these cases and Samsung continuously seems to do this is they don't put anything that keeps the front cover from just flopping around I I just don't get it like if this is in your purse and you pull this out it's it's just going to like flop open and it's not going to protect the front screen I I just I just don't understand why they keep doing that with these types of cases so it does have a little cutout for your speaker Grill so you can kind of use the phone with the front cover closed if you're going to hold the case you can hold it like this or you can fold back the cover and you can still easily access the power buttons and the volume buttons does have a nice soft smooth feel to it if you look at it from the side you can see it's got a slight raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case and on the back again it's just like that smooth type of leatherette texture and the same thing with this case the camera lenses are pretty much flush with the back of the case so if you happen to put this in your purse or down on something things are going to come in contact with these camera lenses and you can potentially scratch or crack them which I don't understand if you're going to make a case these are simple thing like these are just simple things that you'd want to put on your case so for me this is definitely a nogo one the floppy front just kind of flops open and two there's no protection for your camera lenses on the back either and if we look at the bottom you can see we have our cutouts and you can easily access your Spen and if you're wondering this case will work with regular wireless charging then here we have the Samsung clear Gadget case so here is the case itself it is a all clear case it's got this little Gadget ring on the back that you can switch out it comes with this lanyard pretty good size that you can put on the case as well and it is made of all hard plastic there are no soft sides to this case let's see how much this case weighs 40 G with the little attachment here but if we take the attachment off it's now 27 GR so you don't have to use the little gadgets you can take them off very easily all you have to do is kind of line up this little line with the line on the case and then just twist and you're good to go and now you have this little ring so let's put our phone in the case clips into the place pretty well feels pretty good in the hand doesn't feel very slippery which is nice buttons on the side are easily accessible I like that if we look at the case from the side it's got an Ever So slight raised Edge on the top and portion of the bottom of the case here as you can see it doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the phone besides the little gadget on the back on the bottom we have a wide openen portion for all our ports and you can also easily access your S Pen we have our power button and our volume buttons on the side and on the back shows off the color of your phone it does pick up minor fingerprints which is nice and it looks like the cameras are pretty much flush with this case as well I can't can't you just push a can't you just put a little raised Edge to protect the cameras is it really that hard I I just don't get it but anyway here we have the little Gadget which acts as a stand and you can also put your finger through it so you can get a better hold on your phone so you don't have to worry about it gliding out of your hand and like I mentioned that kickstand you can use to kind of angle it and pretty much any angle you want it stays it's very strong this is made of metal right here besides this this plastic but this ring is super sturdy and as you can see it it stays in pretty much any orientation you're going to put it it's it's really solid which I like now will this stand in portrait mode no so you can use it you know in landscape to watch some YouTube or Netflix like that but it won't stand up in your portrait mode and then you can kind of fold it down like that now if you want to change it out you push in this button on here and then rotate it to the right and then just take it off really easy and then you can put on your other accessory like we have our lanyard hole again you just line up those gray lines and then just twist maybe which is not working out so well well there we go that was a lot harder than the other one I'm not sure why that was so hard but now you have this long lanyard on your phone I'm not sure that I would end up using this but I mean why I mean I guess you can put it on your wrist like that so it doesn't you know kind of fall out but man this thing is long like this kind of just dangling all over the place what do you guys think about this track would you rather have it a lot shorter or would you even use it let me know in the comments so this is definitely a cool case I like the idea this strap man is just there's no button to press on here I guess you just kind of force it and then just pull it off unlike the other one not a really big I'm not a big fan of this strap and how it works I really do like this little piece here the only thing is is it's very bulky and you can't use it with wireless charging but if you want to wirelessly charge you just need to take off your accessory and then put it on your wireless charger and your all set so this is a cool case idea I do like how thin it is and I like the different things that you can put on the back just that this strap not really not really a huge fan and then here we have the Samsung standing grip case this is probably my favorite so here is the case itself it does have a silicone cover to it and it does have a fairly rigid back and a firmer rubber side again this case does not have any microfiber inside why I'm not really too sure but it's just a hard plastic so let's put our phone inside the case fits the phone really nice it's got a soft silicone type feel to it feels good in the hand buttons are also nice and clicky easy easily accessible if we look at the case from the side you can see it's got a slight raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case it also doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the phone on the bottom we have our cutouts you can very easily access your S Pen we have our buttons on the side which are also covered in silicone on the back again it's covered by that soft silicone and the camera lenses are just ever so slightly recessed but not a lot of protection there either now the really cool thing about this case is it has a built-in strap here all you simply do is slide that down and then you can slide your fingers to it to give you a better hold on your case which I really like it's very comfortable you can hold it like this forever whereas like if you had a metal ring it would probably start to hurt your fingers but this one is super comfortable it's like it's a nice soft silicone so you could just do this all day if you really wanted to and then when you're done it just kind of folds back up into the case case this is a really good idea they started doing this a couple years ago and I absolutely love that I just kind of wish that for this case there was a a little bit more protection for your camera lenses but the strap seems to work pretty well and you might be able to use it as a stand and you can so not only does it it you know act as a little holder for your fingers but you can also use it as a little stand to watch some YouTube or Netflix I really like that so here we have the UAG Metropolis LT case let's see how much this case weighs 51 G so this case has Kevlar built into the back and it's also got mag safe and it's been drop tested up to 18 ft it's got a really cool feel on the back and it also does come in a couple different colors if we look at the inside you can see that it's got a honeycomb kind of pattern and it's been military Gray drop tested case fits the phone really good feels nice in the hand it does have a little bit of slickness to it it's not it's not horrible but it is there buttons on the side are easily pressable nice and clicky if we look at the case from the side you can see that it has a prominent raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case it also doesn't add a whole bunch of extra bulk to the phone we also have some reinforcements in the corners for drw protection on the bottom here we have our cutouts you can easily very easily access the S Pen on the side there are those raised uh power button and volume buttons and on the back again it's got that really cool Kevlar feel feels really nice and we also have a raised edge around our camera lenses for protection there as well I do actually like the olive green kind of looks like a like a military kind of look and then if you happen to have a power bank that's mag safe compatible you can clip it onto the back and it'll start to charge your phone immediately and the mag safe is also on there pretty good so you don't have to worry about the accessory just falling off and the mag safe accessory also sits flush with the phone because there's no super raised edge around on the camera lenses because you can see that the portion of the power bank does protrude over the camera lens I really like the fact that UAG thought about this because no other case that I've seen does this and then as far as accessing the bottom part of the phone you can easily just swipe your finger from the bottom up not a problem and the same thing with the top and then here we have the UAG Pathfinder case let's see how much this case weighs 47 G this case has been military grve drop tested up into 18 ft and it also has mag safe built in this case also comes in different colors I'm just partial to the camo look I think it looks pretty cool so it's got a hard PC back surrounded by a softer TPU type rubber on the inside it's got the small honeycomb look along with the mag safe and the UAG logo fits the phone really well feels good in hand this case does have a little bit more grip than the Metropolis did so that's definitely a plus buttons very easily accessible nice and clicky very nice if you look at the case from the side you can see that it does have a raised Edge on the top and the bottom and you can see that texture on the side to help with grip on the bottom we have our cutouts and still easily accessible the S Pen not a problem we have our power button and our volume buttons on the side along with some of that texture and on the back again it's got that cool camo look kind of industrial looking and we also do have a slight raised edge around our camera lenses now the same thing goes for this case as it was with the Metropolis they did did put a little cutout here for when you put a MAG safe accessory on the back it won't lift up over this raised Edge it'll sit nice and flush with the camera and I'll show you what I mean so here again we have the power bank mag safe accessory Clips onto the back and a portion of that power bank kind of goes over the camera well UAG thought about that and they made a little cutout for that raised Edge so it sits flush with your phone which I have not seen any any other Casemaker do so that's definitely a plus and as you can see it is charging our phone again this case has a pretty good hold on your mag saave accessory so you don't have to worry about it just falling off another really nice case the only thing about the UAG cases they're they're kind of squared off you may or may not like that it's not horrible but it's definitely going to add some good drw protection for your phone especially in these reinforced corners then here we have the UAG Monarch Pro case and we'll see how much this case weighs 62 G this is the heaviest UAG case but really it's still not that heavy this is one of the most expensive cases that UAG makes it does have Kevlar lining built in to the sides here and this also does come in a couple different colors as well it's got the mag safe built in and it's been military grade drop tested up to 25 feet on the inside it's kind of got like a a smooth honeycomb type pattern to it you really can't feel the honeycomb on the inside goes in the phone feels good in the hand it's not slippery and it's got a little bit of that honeycomb type texture on the side for grip buttons on the side again nice and clicky easily accessible we also do have some reinforcements in the corners for extra drop protection if we look at it from the side we do have a raised edge around the top and the bottom of the case and it's not super bulky but it does add a little bit extra bulk to the foam there's the honeycomb pattern on the side for some extra grip we have our cutouts on the bottom again the same cutout for your S Pen which makes it easily accessible on the side here we have that honeycomb pattern with our power power button and our volume buttons I like how the power buttons kind of protrude out from the case a little bit makes it easy for you to find them and press and on the back here it's got a really cool look these red accents kind of really industrial type look to it we have our Kevlar lining on the back with our mag safe and we also have a raised edge around our camera lenses for protection there too and if we take our mag safe power bank Clips onto the back and immediately charges your phone and again that mag safe accessory is on the back of the case it's not going to just fall off and we also have it sitting flush with this case too the back blue plastic on here is also super smooth I think it just looks really cool so if you're looking for the best drop protection possible the UAG Monarch Pro is definitely going to be the case for you here we have the span Ultra hybrid case in the 01 pattern let's see how much this case weighs 38 G this is probably one of the cooler cases that I've seen so far it looks like the inside of your Galaxy s24 Ultra and it's not all in the same layer this case actually has depth to it so like the charging port on the back here is kind of recessed underneath the battery layer it just looks so cool I don't know if you guys can tell from you know on camera but in person it looks really neat it does have a hard polycarbonate back surrounded by a rubbery type TPU material put our phone inside the case feels really nice in the hand it does have some grip to it the buttons on the side super easy to find and press the power button got kind of like a little texture on it which I love if you look at from the side you can see it's got a raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case and it also doesn't add a lot of extra bulk either we also do have some extra reinforcements in the corners too for some drop protection there on the bottom we have our cutouts our S Pen Port where you can easily access the S Pen we have our power button which is kind of textured it's got that serration very nice and our volume buttons on the back again it shows off that the inside of your phone looks really cool and we also have some slight raised edges for some camera protection there not the best that I've seen But ever so slight now this case might have mag safe built in let's try one of their power Banks I have a span Wireless mag safe power bank here and it doesn't seem to clip onto the back which is unfortunate because that would be really cool to see that actually function but definitely not a bad case it will offer some protection and it looks really cool and there's the inside of the case as well it's got a pretty cool little texture to it too and the ultra hybrid also comes in this kind of frosted black case as well it's got all the same features it just doesn't have the pattern let's see how much this case weighs 39 gram then here we have one of my personal favorites the span rugged armor case this is one of my favorite cases because not only does it keep the phone nice and slim but it does offer some protection for your phone while not going overboard it's got a really cool matte texture on the back so it doesn't show fingerprints and it's got like this carbon fiber inlay let's see how much this case weighs 44 G it is made of a all type TPU material there's no hard pieces on this case but it does have some extra reinforcements in the edges for draw protection fits the case perfectly feels really good in the hand it's not grippy but it's not slippery either it's got kind of like this texture on the side like a smooth rubber feel feels nice buttons on the side are easily accessible as you can see it has a raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case and it doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the Pham we have that kind of serration texture on the side we have our cutouts on the bottom again you can easily access access that S Pen we have our power button and our volume buttons on the side and on the back again it's got kind of like that matte feel with the carbon fiber inlay it just looks really cool and it feels nice and it's got some raised edges around our camera lenses as well this case also doesn't have mag safe built in but again if you don't care about that you just want to keep your phone a fairly slim while offering some protection for drops the ruged armor case is definitely one I would check out I love this textured matte feel on the back then here we have the spean Tough Armor case so I've never been too keen on the Tough Armor case it just I don't know it just kind of looks cheap to me but it's supposed to offer some pretty good draw protection on the inside here it's got this yellow type foam uh it is a two-piece design so it's got a hard polycarbonate back surrounded by a softer type TPU material and the buttons on the side are also uh kind of flush with the case except for the power button it's kind of indented with this texture and I think this might have mag zave built in yeah it does so that's definitely a plus let's see how much this case weighs 62 gram and it's also got this little plastic kickstand on the back it's super flimsy it feels super cheap it just kind of flops around but it will get the job done so let's put our phone inside the case so it feels good in the hand it's got kind of like that smooth rubber feel to it buttons are clicky but if it's in your pocket you might have a hard time trying to figure out where these buttons are because they're flush which I really don't care for we also do have some reinforcements in the corners for drop protection if we look at the case from the side there is a raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case it adds a little bit of extra bulk because of that polycarbonate backing but it's not horrible on the bottom we have our cutouts again easily access that S Pen we have our serrated power button on the side and our volume buttons the one thing I will say about these buttons is they're they're pretty big they're oversized on the back it's got kind of like this kind of like a silicone type feel I want to say but it's just plastic again we have that kickstand and we have some raised edges around our camera lenses so now let's test out the mag safe we have that span mag safe battery Clips onto the back pretty strong and immediately starts to charge your phone the mag safe is also on there pretty good so you don't have to worry about the accessory just falling off and it sits flush with the back of the case and then for that kickstand kind of lift it up and it'll keep your phone in a landscape mode you can't put it up in a portrait mode because the phone will just fall over and then it Clips back into place again like I said not the greatest by any means but it will get the job done and because this case does have mag safe built in let's see how the S Pen reacts on the screen and I don't really see any issues so you really shouldn't have any problems there using the Spen with this case then here we have the Neo Hybrid Case by span so here is the case it's got a rubbery type TPU material on the back kind of looks woven feels kind of cool this is a very flexible case as well and it has some kind of like extra like plastic piece all the way around the edge and across the back of the case too it doesn't add any rigidity rigidity to the case but it just kind of makes it look a little cooler see how much this case weighs 49 grams let's put our phone inside so was a little harder to get my phone inside the case but we finally got it in feels good in the hand it does have it's got some good grip to it that that piece on the side it adds a lot of grip to the phone so you definitely don't have to worry about just dropping this buttons on the side are nice and clicky easily accessible the only thing I worry about is taking this in and out of your pocket it's probably going to get stuck on these edges because it's all the way around the phone if we look at the case from the side it does have a raised Edge on the top and the bottom it's got rounded edges on the on the side here and it doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the foam we have our cutouts on the bottom again you can very easily access that S Pen we have our power button that is serrated and our volume buttons on the back again it's got kind of like that woven feel does not show fingerprints because it is matte looks really cool feels cool too nice and smooth and we also have some plastic raised edges around our cameras too so not a bad case again like I said the only thing I worry about is the grippiness of these edges and you pulling it in and out of your pocket it's either going to get stuck or this is probably going to wear away and just look kind of weird and worn out after a while but it's not a bad case and here is the span liquid air case so this case is made of all TPU it's very flexible there's no rigid Parts on this casee whatsoever it's got kind of like a really cool texture on the back doesn't show any fingerprints which is nice see how much this case weighs 37 grams put her phone in the case goes onto the case pretty easy feels nice in the hand it does have like a smooth rubber type feel to it nice buttons on the side very easily pressable nice and clicky if we look at the case from the side it says the same raised Edge on the top and the bottom and it's also not very thick either which I love it's got that serration for grip on the side we have cutouts on the bottom you can still very easily access your S Pen we have our power button which is a little serrated and our volume buttons with that texture on the side on the back again it's got kind of like that that texture it's you can't really feel it it's just nice and smooth and it also doesn't show any fingerprints too so that's definitely a plus and we have some raised edges around our camera lenses too so it's just a very simple light case looks pretty good and it will actually keep your phone somewhat protected and here we have the span Liquid Crystal case here is the case it is crystal clear and it's made of the flexible TPU material as well there's no regid pieces on here let's see how light it is 37 G so if you want to show off the color of your phone you can get this case goes in the frone pretty good does have some grip to it feels really nice buttons on the side are nice and clicky easily accessible if you look at the case from the side you can see it does have a raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case and there's also some little like these little airbags in the corners for some drw protection there too and it shows off the color of your phone I absolutely love that looks really good on the bottom we have our cutouts you can easily access your S Pen we have our serrated power button on the side as well as our volume buttons on the back shows off the color of your phone and for fingerprints it doesn't seem to really show fingerprints so that's definitely a plus and there's also a slight raised edge around our camera lenses too so nice case if you want to show off the color of your phone and not hide it because you know why buy a colored phone if you're just going to put a case over it I think it looks really cool in the natural titanium then here we have the speaking slim armor CS case so this case is in the abyss green and as you can see it does have a card holder on the back that should hold probably at least one card so it's got a hard kind of card holder on the back surrounded by a softer TPU rubber it's got that interesting texture that they chose not sure that I would have chose like a straight line on the back it definitely could have been a little better than that feels nice in the hand it does have like a kind of like a little a slightly rough texture on the side but it still feels like rubber buttons are easily accessible if you look at it from the side it does have a raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case and as you can see it does definitely add some extra bulk to your phone because of that a card hold we'll see it also we'll see if it also works with wireless charging as well on the bottom we have our cutouts easily access the S Pen power button and volume buttons on the side on the back again we have our card holder with this really weird texture that they chose I I think that looks really bad I really don't like that they could have CHS like any other texture that would have been better than that and it also has some raised edges around our camera lenses as well but now when you put your phone on its back because there's this Gap the camera lenses won't touch what you put your phone down on anyway but let's open this up and put one of our cards in so we have a couple flat cards and we have one that has kind of like texture on it so let's put this inside so that's in there and two no so two flat cards will fit in there very easily so you can see easily opens up but to get the cards out it's not too bad the last one is a little bit harder especially if you don't have nails like me but you can get them out it's not that easy but at least it holds two cards now let's put in our embossed one and then we'll put in one of the flat ones so you can it's it's able to hold two cards One Flat one embossed or two flat I don't think it'll fit two embossed cards because it might just be a little too thick but that first card is very easy to get out and the second one it's a little harder cuz it's kind of in there so that's pretty cool and this also does come in other colors as well so now let's see if you can wirelessly charge through this case with cards in the back card holder and it does still seem to work now I wouldn't recommend wirelessly charging this with the cards in there because you want the least resistance as possible when you're wirelessly charging but as you can see it will work and then here we have the cryo armor case in red and this is definitely one of the cooler cases that spean makes as you can see it kind of looks like it's lighting up but all it is is a layer underneath the back here looks really cool I think they also have this in blue as well so it does have a firmer backing on it surrounded by a softer TPU material and this does not have mag safe let's see how much the case weighs 45 GR so it fits the phone really well feels nice in the hand it's got kind of like a smooth rubbery type feel buttons on the side are also nice and clicky easily pressable if we look at it from the side we do have that same raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case we also do have some reinforcements in the corners for draw protection it's got kind of like this the line for grip on the side we have our cutouts on the bottom can very easy easily access your SP pen we have our power button and volume buttons on the side and on the back again it's got kind of like that really cool red light up look and it's kind of rubbery feeling too looks really cool we also have a full cutout for all our cameras and it's also raised above the lenses for protection there too another one of my favorite cases just because of the way that it looks so cool it's it's different then here we have one of the newer cases the Enzo aramid case so this is one of their more premium cases the aramid fiber on the back feels nice and smooth and it doesn't show fingerprints feels really nice we also do have what looks like a metal ring around the camera lenses for Extra Protection there and our metal buttons on the side very nice looking on the inside we also have a a nice soft felt material material so it protects the glass in the back and it's also got mag safe built in also has a nice firm back surrounded by a softer TPU rubber let's see how much this case weighs 48 gram not bad it's still really light fits the phone really well feels good in the hand it's got kind of like that smooth rubber type feel buttons are nice and clicky easily pressable and as you can see they don't protrude much from the case so while it's in your pocket you might have a little trouble finding it but holding it naturally outside of your pocket feels nice there's nothing for your fingers to get you know caught on if you look at it from the side we have the same raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case it also doesn't look to add much bulk to the phone on the bottom we have our cutouts you can access your S Pen very easily on the side we have a lanyard hole and those metal power and vume buttons on the back again it's got that metal ring around the camera lenses and it's also raised above them to protect them too and then we have that smooth aramid fiber looks really nice nice this little span logo right in the bottom there so cool really like this case now let's test out the mag safe so I thought it did have mag safe but I was mistaken yeah so that's interesting it looked like there was a MAG safe ring in the in the middle here but there's no mag safe for this case you would have thought for the price that they're asking for this case they would have included Ed it but they didn't so again if you want one of their more premium looking cases definitely looks good I'd go with this air mid fiber case and then here we have Whit Stone dome's Lappy case with mag safe built in so the first thing we're going to take a look at is their clear Lappy case it fits the phone really well shows off the color of your phone as well because who buys a colored phone and then covers it up with a dark case so again this case does have mag safe buil in it is Crystal Clear it's got a nice hard polycarbonate backing surrounded by a softer type of TPU material I don't have any screen protector on the phone right now so you can see how much the raised edges are around the front of the phone it also doesn't add a lot of extra bulk which is really nice and you can see the thick layer on the back of the polycarbonate that protects the back of the phone as well on the bottom we have all our cutouts we also have a nice cut out for the S Pen so you can easily access that if you need on the other side we have our power button and our volume buttons which are separated on the back again we have that mag safeer ring and we also have a ever so slight it's almost pretty much flush with the cameras on the back of this case and if you put the phone on its back and you need to type the case won't wobble around like some of the other cases either it also does have a UV cating to keep down those fingerprints and it seems to be doing a pretty good job because I don't really see any fingerprints on the back so that's definitely a huge Plus for me the case does feel nice in the hand it's got a bit a bit of a grip to it buttons are also nice and clicky easily accessible nice case so now let's see how well the S Pen works because the case does have mag safe built in and I do not see any issues with the S Pen everything seems to be working just fine and you can also very easily access the bottom of the phone as well it doesn't have much of a lip that comes up so much to where you can't access the bottom of the phone and let's see how much this case weighs 48 GRS if you're interested now let's check out the mag safe on the back here I have a MAG safe power bank Clips onto the back really nicely with a strong hold and immediately starts to charge your phone and that mag safe on the back is got a really nice strong hold so you don't have to worry about your mag if accessory just falling off either yeah it's got a pretty pretty nice strong hold now the hold that the mag safe accessory has on your case will also determine how well the magnets are in the accessory as well but this one has a nice strong hold on this case I tested this case out on the s24 plus as well and it was also a really nice case and this one seems to be too we also have some protection in the edges you can see the little extra bubble in the corners so if you have going to drop your phone and it hits the corner your phone should be protected and then here we have a kickstand Case by humix I think you guys are really going to like this one so here is the case it's got a nice frosted backing that doesn't show a lot of fingerprints it's got mag safe built in and it also has this metal kickstand that surrounds the camera for some extra protection there so this case has a lot to offer for a pretty good price so let's see how much this case weighs 49 G I'm definitely a huge fan of the matte cases because again it keeps the fingerprints down fits the phone really well buttons on the side are nice and clicky easily pressable feels good in the hand it's got a smooth rubber type feel to it it if we look at it from the side you can see that it's got a slight Edge on the front and the bottom or the top and the bottom of the case it also doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the phone on the bottom we have our cutouts you can easily access your SP pen on the other side we have our power buttons and our volume buttons and then if we look at the back you can see it's got that nice matte look where you can still see the color of your phone doesn't show very many fingerprints at all we have our mag saering and there's also a pretty big edge around our camera lenses for protection there so if you happen to put your phone on its back nothing should really touch these camera lenses and then this metal kickstand I absolutely love this feature I think more cases should have it it comes in handy and it doesn't really add any extra bulk to the phone because there's usually already a raised edge around the camera lenses but it's not functional whereas here we get get a metal kickstand so you can lay your phone down in a landscape mode or you can stand it upright in portrait and then it just folds flat against the phone I mean it doesn't get any better than that and then if you happen to have a MAG safe power bank like I have here or other mag safe accessories you can simply clip it onto the back and it'll start to charge your phone now one thing I will tell you is that the puck mag safe Rings will work much better on this phone because of the way that the camera ring is here for this power bank to sit flush on the phone you're going to need to angle it like this as you saw and heard it clipped really well onto the back of the phone but unfortunately for it to sit flush on the back of the case this is how you're probably going to have to have your mag safe battery as you can see it is charging the phone got wireless charging on the bottom here here 12 2 hours 41 minutes until fully charged and it's on there like it's on the case really well you do not have to worry about your mag safe accessory just falling off but again it's going to have to be in this orientation unless they make a MAG safe battery that fits uh the way that the camera lenses are so I have another mag saave power bank here and again it's not flush with the case if you try to uh put it the way that it's supposed to be so the best option again is just going to be using those Puck mag safe batteries and this also does work with regular wireless charging as well really nice case I love the features and that matte look on the back I this is definitely going to be one of my favorites now this case doesn't add a lot for draw protection but it it will add some protection for your phone especially for slight drops and scratches and things like that and here we have a case by case coup so this case comes with a little plastic stand that just folds up when you need to use it because the case itself doesn't have any kickstands just a very simple matte case that has a hard polycarbonate back with a softer TPU type rubber this is kind of like the humix case that we just tested but the humix had a MAG safe uh ring on the back as well as that metal kickstand whereas this one is just it's a lot lighter and just a simple case so let's see how much this case weighs 39 G put her phone into the case phone fits well feels nice in hand it does have a smooth rubber type feel to it buttons are very clicky easily pressable if we look at it from the side you can see that it's got a slight raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case it also doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the phone it's pretty slim we have cutouts on the bottom easily access your S Pen we have our power button and our volume buttons on the side on the back again it's got that nice matte look so you can still see the color of your phone but it doesn't really show any fingerprints and feels nice and smooth and we do have a slight raised edge around our camera lenses so not a bad case just something very simple to put on your phone to protect from scratches and very minimal drops then here we have the autobbox Symmetry case so here is the case it's got a hard polycarbonate back surrounded by a softer TPU type rubber see how much this case weighs 44 G fits the phone pretty good feels good in the hand it does have a grip to it so you don't have to worry about dropping it the buttons don't seem to move at least the power button there's like it doesn't feel like you're pressing it at all let's see if I can wow so the power button does work but it doesn't even feel like you're pressing anything whereas the volume buttons actually have a click but the power button is just nothing it feels like you're pushing on a a piece of plastic that doesn't move so that's not good if we look at it from the side you can see that it's got an Ever So slight raised edge around the front of the phone it also doesn't add much bulk to the phone either we have our cutouts on the bottom you can access your S Pen fairly easily too if you don't have any nails you're going to have problems trying to get that out we have our power button and our volume buttons on the side on the back shows off the color of your phone does pick up some slight fingerprints not horrible and it's got a raised edge around the camera lenses so not a horrible case it definitely seems like it would protect your phone a little better than most especially if you happen to drop it but the the power button on the side just it doesn't move it's uh it's pretty horrible I wouldn't recommend this case I I like the buttons that actually feel like you're pressing something cuz especially if this was this was in your pocket how would you know that you were pressing the power button you wouldn't so I would definitely not recommend this case then here we have the protect Case by zag this has been drop tested up to 10 ft so here is the case it's just a very simple kind of like flexible TPU case it's got some ridges on the back let's see how much this weighs 51 grams put our phone in the case fits the phone pretty good does have a a smooth rubber feel to it in the hand buttons are somewhat clicky they're almost flush with the phone if we look at the case from the side you can see that it's got a very slight raised Edge on the top and bottom of the case it also just adds a little bit of extra bulk to the foam no grip or anything on the side here we have our cutouts on the bottom you can easily access your S Pen we have our power button and our volume buttons in the side and then on the back again we have that kind of like that rigid texture and we also have a raised edge around our camera lenses I mean it's a very simple case I I don't like the way that the buttons feel like I mentioned they're not super clicky it just just a very soft light click uh I'm not really impressed with the zag case I can't remember how much I paid for this but I don't know that I would buy it again or recommend it but this case does work with regular wireless charging and it says it should protect your phone up to a 10-ft drop so take it for what it's worth if you like the the pink case then this might be for you but I don't know that I would recommend this to anybody then here we have the spec precidio 2 grip case it's been drop tested up to 13 ft it's made from a cycled Plastics and it's got antimicrobial properties so here is the case looks pretty interesting it has a hard kind of soft backing to it and the edges of the case are also pretty rigid as well I do like the contrast with the kind of bronze look with the gray that definitely looks pretty cool let's see how much this case weighs 47 G and the inside of the case is also a hard plastic so the phone feels pretty nice in hand it's got these ridges on the side to help with grip buttons are nice and clicky they're not super easy to press but they do work if we look at the case from the side you can see there's a slight raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case and there are those ridges on the side to help with grip it also is pretty slim on the phone on the bottom we have our cutouts and you can easily access your S Pen we have our power and volume buttons which are all separate from the case and separated from each other which I love on the back it's got that pretty cool texture that feels kind of like soft silicone feels pretty nice and we have a slight raised edge around our camera lenses so it looks visually it looks like a nice case and I'm not super happy with how hard the buttons are to press but they do click and it might protect your phone if you happen to drop it it does work with regular wireless charging so it's not it's not really a bad case I definitely like the way that it looks I like the way that it feels but again like I said I don't like the way that these buttons are like you have to press them a lot harder than a lot of the other cases and that I do not like they could definitely be a lot easier to press and they're not so personally I wouldn't buy this case if I was going to buy it again so I wouldn't recommend it and here we have a clear case by motive so here is the case it is clear it's got mag safe built in it also has a nice firm hard back as well as hard edges let's see how much this case weighs 45 gr let's put our phone inside the case fits the phone nicely feels good in the hand buttons are clicky easily pressable if we look at the case from the side you can see there is a slight raised Edge on the top and the bottom of the case and it also doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the phone we also have our cutouts on the bottom here we have our S Pen easily accessible we also have our power button volume buttons on the other side in the back nice and clear show off the color of your phone peel off the protector and it looks really nice as you can see see again we have that mag safer ring on the back and we also have a raised edge around our camera lenses so if you happen to have a power bank like I have here you can clip it right onto the back of the case and it starts to charge your phone as you can see the power bank sits flush with the case and it's got a nice strong magnetic hold on the back of the case as well so your mag sa accessory isn't just going to fall off this also works with regular wireless charging as well and we also have some extra protection in the corners as well in case you happen to drop your phone you don't have to worry about your phone getting damaged and because there's a nice big cutout around our camera lenses here this should accommodate the camera protectors as well pretty easily now this case does have a rubber coating on the edges of the case as well but it's a very firm rubber so you don't have to worry about this The Edge is wearing out easily over time and here we have a LifeProof Case by motive and here is the case now this is a two-piece design case your phone goes inside the case and then it's kind of covered up on the back here so no water no snow no dirt anything will get inside this case and it'll keep your phone nice and clean so inside the case we get this little lanyard and a little wipe we get a squeegee we also get some extra ra fingerprint sensor stickers as well our instructions and then the bottom of the case so the first thing you're going to want to do is to clean off your screen on your phone really well because anything that's on your screen will get trapped inside the case and you don't want that so once you've clean your phone screen off really well you're going to want to take the top of the case we need to remove this little yellow sticker in here trying not to touch the inner portion of the screen then take your phone and we're going to place it inside the case with the bottom going in first and then press in the top just like that then you're going to take the back plate we're going to place this over our phone and then just work your way around the case and make sure everything is snapped together and it should be sealed all the way around the phone so once that's done you can peel off the back protector and then do the same thing for the front of your phone then make sure the little fingerprint section right here doesn't have any bubbles on it so just press that down and you're all set feels really nice in the hand it's got a a nice grippy feel to it the buttons are also nice and grippy easily pressable nice nice and clicky if you look at the case from the side you can see there is a raised Edge all the way around the screen and it does add some extra bulk to the phone but you're also getting that waterproofing on the sides here we have some serrations for grip on the bottom we have our ports this little Port here is for your microphone and you can switch this little thing to each side depending on if you want it to be waterproof or if you're going to be using it to talk to somebody on the phone I'll be letting you listen to what each one of these ports sound like then we also have our cover for our S Pen which you can easily access right there I'll take that out and we'll test the S Pen on the screen so the S Pen seems to be working just fine on the screen this is a film screen protector and there is quite a bit of resistance with the S Pen but it seems to work just fine fine and when you're done you can put the Spen back in and then just make make sure that this is plugged up so it is waterproof and we also have a plug for our charging port as well if we look at the other side we have that same serration with our rubber power and volume buttons that are separated and on the back shows off the color of your phone it does have some resistance when you touch it and your camera lenses are also totally protected on the inside so now let's test out our fingerprints touch and fingerprints seem to be working just fine as you can see the screen is crystal clear and again touch is working perfectly fine you can access the top and the bottom of the screen there is a SL there is some resistance when you run your finger over the screen itself because it's not glass it is plastic but you can still manage so now let's see if there's a rainbow effect if you're using polarized sunglasses so it looks like there's absolutely no rainbow effect on the screen except for the little place where the fingerprint sensor is I think that's definitely manageable and then let's check out our camera camera looks pretty clear I don't see any issues with that either and now let's do the sound test so again like I mentioned this little port on on the bottom here needs to be switched depending on what you need the case for if you need it to be waterproofed you're going to want to move it to one side and the other side is going to be for talking on the phone so right now as it sits it's open for you to talk on the phone so let's hear what that sounds like so this is what the audio sounds like with the port open for you to actually talk to somebody and the phone not not be waterproof so this is what the audio sounds like with the port open for you to actually talk to somebody and the phone not be waterproof so you can definitely hear very easy through the case especially with the little Port open and it sounds like your voice being heard on the other end of the line also works really well so now I'm going to plug up the hole to make it waterproof and we're going to see what the audio quality sounds like then so this is what the audio quality sounds like with the phone waterproofed and the little microphone hole plugged up I want to see if there's any difference in the sound quality as well as the audio recording so this is what the audio quality sounds like with the phone waterproofed and the little microphone hole plugged up I want to see if there's any difference in the sound quality as well as the audio recording so there's definitely a difference in the sound quality it sounded like I was underwater when I was talking on the phone but if you needed to to use your phone with it still being waterproofed I'm sure the person on the other end would still be able to hear you as you heard from the recording but it definitely sounds a lot better when you unplug the microphone Port so now we're going to put the phone into a vase of water to see if the case actually does what it says it's going to do and keep your phone nice and dry all right so here we have our vase of water here we have the LifeProof case it is totally waterproofed I have the little microphone Port set to waterproofing on the side so now we're going to play a YouTube video and I'm going to be putting it in this large vase of water all right so there we have our YouTube video going and it's going into the vase so I'll just let it sit in there for about a minute and then we'll move it around and take it out all right so it's been in the vase for about a minute there have been some water bubbles coming up from the top so I hope it's still waterproof I'll kind of move it around in the vase here a little bit and we'll take it out and we'll see if the phone is still nice and dry so the screen is still working as you can see I'm going to dry it off really well because when I take the case off I don't want any water getting inside that was outside to ruin the test phone looks pretty dry to me don't see any issues yet okay looks nice and dry let's test out our camera really quick camera is still working our rear camera as you can see the rear camera is also nice and clear even with the protector on it right so I think it's about time to take it out of the case so oh there's actually all right make sure my hands are all dry and then we'll take the case off here so it looks nice and dry to me there are some water spots from it splashing from the the outside of the case let's push it out looks nice and dry on the inside the water that we see is on the outside of the case and there's our phone nice and dry so it definitely did its job no issues very nice so as you saw the case definitely did its job it kept my phone nice and dry and also clean so if you're a person that likes to do Outdoor Sports you like to snowboard uh water sports hiking biking anything like that not only is the case going to keep your phone nice and dry but it's also going to keep it nice and clean and dust free and here we have a minimalist Case by later case so the case does have a pretty nice presentation the cover is held in place with magnets and just pull this little strap down to expose the case itself now here is the case it does feel super light it's got a little bit of a an odor to it it's not bad but kind of smells I don't know something like like a cleaning supply or something like that but as you can see the case is pretty thin it does not have any mag safe built in let's see how thin the let see how much the case weighs 14 G that's probably the lightest case that I've seen so far so let's put our phone inside the case fits on the phone pretty nicely feels good in the hand and as you can see the phone is pretty much as thick as it was before I put the case even on it it's got a very nice smooth feel to it the buttons are Exposed on the side so you can easily press those if we look at it from the side you can see that it does have a slight raised Edge in each one of the corners of the phone it's not fully covered on the top and the bottom which I'm not a huge fan of but it I guess it definitely makes the case easier to take off as you can see the phone is still super thin on the bottom there is a whole cutout there's like no protection for the bottom you can easily access your S pen there's a cutout for your power button and your volume buttons on the side and on the back you have that nice aramid fiber this is the blue feels pretty nice and it continues around the camera lenses as well so not a bad case I've done some other case reviews on Aid fiber minimalist cases and I would definitely say that they're they're nicer than this one the main things that I don't really like are the fact that there's no protection for the top and the bottom of your phone you could have easily continued the aabid fiber across the bottom and the top of the case so I'm not sure why they opted to do that there's also no mag safe built in so if you happen to have a MAG safe accessory it's not going to stick onto the back of the phone which they could have easily installed as well and this case is fairly pricey there are some other minimalist cases that I've done reviews on kind of like Thorn and Paka that do add the mag safe accessory and they're also covered on the top and the bottom which would be I would think a better option than than this for the money and you can also see the weaving of the Kevlar it's really not that great as compared to again some of the other cases that I've done reviews on it just doesn't look as premium it kind of looks a little bit more sloppy but the case does work with regular wireless charging so really there's not much more to say about this case like I mentioned before for the money this case is $60 it doesn't come with any mag safe the Kevlar weaving really isn't that spectacular and you don't have any coverage on the top and the whole bottom of your phone you can definitely get other cases that are about the same price that actually come with the screen protector for about the same amount of money case in point thin born has a case that actually looks a lot better than this gives better coverage is about the same price and offers a tempered glass screen protector so those are my thoughts on this case let me know what you guys think in the comments below do you guys agree with me or do you prefer the case to not have any coverage on the top and the bottom so if you guys stuck with me this far thank you so much for all your support I appreciate each and every one of you and if there was a case that you didn't see in this video that you'd like to see in future videos let me know in the comments below now I'm going to give you the cases that I like the best out of all the ones we've tested here today based on a few different categories now my favorite case picks are by no means definitive I definitely urge you to go back and check out all the cases that I've done a review on in this video because these are simply cases that were my favorite but there might be cases in this review that might fit your needs better so the first category is going to be the best clear case and my pick was the rinky Fusion clear matte case I absolutely love matte cases because it doesn't show fingerprints nearly as much as the other clear cases it's very affordable it fits the phone really well it keeps the phone nice and slim while still giving it some protection so if you simply just need a regular clear case that offers some protection I would definitely recommend the rinky Fusion clear mat case next up is going to be my favorite everyday carry case first up we have the banks Armor Pro this case is made from Kevlar it does offer some protection to your phone while keeping it somewhat slim and it just feels really premium it's got a nice metal ring around your camera lens and it just feels great in the hand next we have the rinky Fusion X case this case not only looks really cool but it also gives your phone some pretty good protection while keeping your phone somewhat slim it looks really cool on the phone the buttons are nice and clicky and again I love that camo look and it feels really good in the hand the back of the phone also offers some rigidity as well and then lastly we have the span rugged armor case again like I mentioned before this case I've used multiple times on phones that I've had in the past for my everyday carry case the phone's dropped on the floor probably from waist height and it's survived without any issues it does have some reinforcements in the corners so it does offer some more drop protection but the phone is totally made of a a softer TPU and there's absolutely no no hard portions on the case at all next up is the best kickstand case now this easily goes to the humix case that I have right here not only does it have a nice match back that keeps the fingerprints down it also has mag safe built in and the kickstand is built into the camera ring so it doesn't add any extra bulk to the phone it also adds some extra protection to the camera lenses as well because the kickstand is made of metal next up we have esrs flick stand case again the same thing with this case it's got a nice matte back it also has mag safe built in and the kickstand is also very sturdy and made of metal and built in flush to the bottom of the case next up is the best minimalist case now all three of these cases have mag safe built in and they're all pretty close in comparison there was only slight things that kind of edged them out over other cases now my first choice was the banks armor air case this case is made from 600D Kevlar feels really great in hand it also feels really premium because the camera lens protector is made of metal again it's got mag safe built in it's super light and it's really strong next up we have the thin born case which is again made from 600D aramid fiber it also has mag safe built in and this one was really close to the Baka case but the reason that it came in second was because it came with a couple free screen protectors it's super light nice and strong and it feels nice in the hand and then third we have the mag easy case 4 by pataka again this case is really nice feels really good in the hand the camera lens protector on the back is made of plastic but it also does have mag safe built in it's nice and light super strong and again it feels really good in the hand next up we have the cases that's going to give you the best drw protection while still keeping your phone as Slim as possible the first case I would recommend is the ey Blaze on Armor box case now the ey blaz on Armor box and the mag XT Case by suitcase came in really close but the ey blaz on case edged out the mag XT because it comes with a film screen protector so your phone is totally protected 360° I absolutely love the metal kickstand on the back that's also doubles as a camera cover and it also keeps your phone somewhat slim while adding some really good draw protection the next case I would recommend is the soup case mag XT again this case offers some really good drw protection and it also has that metal kickstand on the back that also doubles as a camera cover it's got mag safe built in and it also keeps your phone somewhat slim third we have the mouse Limitless 5.0 case now this case is not nearly as bulky as the first two cases that I mentioned but it's also going to give you some really good draw protection feels great in the hand I love the way that the buttons feel it also has mag safe built in and it has the air mid fiber on the back and on the inside of the case it has this AOG gel lining that's going to protect your phone from shocks if you happen to drop your phone and then fourth we have the base dual hybrid this case has a nice matte back in that again is going to keep the fingerprints down it's also got mag safe built in it's got a nice premium metal camera protector it feels good in the hand and it's also been drop tested up to 12 ft next we have the cases that are going to keep your phone protected most from drops but they are a little more bulky first up we have the poetic Spartan case this case is going to keep your phone protected 360° because it does come with the built-in screen protector and it also has a kickstand on the back again like I mentioned it is a little bit more bulky but it's got some reinforcements all over the case to help with drops second we have supc case's UB Pro case this is by far one of my most favorite drop protective cases that I pretty much recommend I think almost every year it is a little bit more bulky but it's definitely going to protect your phone this case also does come with the built-in screen protector to protect your phone 360° it's got a built-in kickstand on the back it feels really good in the hand and I love the new patterns that they have this year and then third we have the UAG Monarch Pro this case just looks awesome I love all the accented colors that it comes with it's got mag safe built in it's also been military grade drop tested up to 25 ft and it's also got a Kevlar inlay to make it feel a little more premium now there is no protection for your screen like some of the other cases here or camera protectors and it is pretty expensive but because of everything I've mentioned before it definitely deserves a spot on this list and then lastly we have the best overall protective case this goes to motives LifeProof case not only is this case going to protect your phone from drops but it's also going to keep it nice and dry and clean from any snow any water any dirt pretty much anything that life can throw at you so if you like doing things outdoors I would definitely recommend the motive LifeProof case so of all the cases that I reviewed today which one was your favorite
