The Samsung Galaxy S10 is a truly gorgeous phone thanks to its nearly bezel-less display and stunning glass back, but as with all of Samsung’s latest handsets, you’ll want to outfit it with a case in order to ensure its good looks for years to come. If you’re planning on picking up the S10, here are the cases we recommend getting.
Buying a case for your Galaxy S10 is a good decision all year round, but as we’re now in November and start to creep closer and closer towards Black Friday 2019, case-buying gets pretty exciting.

You might not find Black Friday deals on these specific cases, but we’ll be sure to update you with what we find.

It’s tough to choose just one
Your Galaxy S10 is new and it was, most likely, expensive. As with any phone, you’ll want to protect it with a case, but you’ll want to get the perfect case for something as expensive and pretty as the S10.
Out of all the cases on this list, the one that stands out as the best coice for most people is the Spigen Neo Hybrid. This is a case we often recommend for just about every phone that comes out, and things aren’t any different for the Galaxy S10. The Neo Hybrid has a great design, offers really good protection, and adds hardly any bulk to your phone. The best part? It’s incredibly affordable and comes in some really fun color options.
What else stands out? If you want one of the absolute thinnest cases money can buy, you can’t go wrong with the Totallee Thin Case. It’s expensive for what it is, but the sheer slimness of the case is a joy for self proclaimed case-haters.
How to find the best Black Friday deals on Galaxy S10 cases
Buying a case for your Galaxy S10 may not be a big monetary investment, but there are still a few different factors you should take into consideration before spending your coin. For starters, you need to think about what style of case you’d like to buy. As evident from this list alone, there are a lot of cases available for the S10. You can get something that’s ultra-thin, a heavy-duty case, a clear option so you can still appreciate your S10’s design, or one that doubles as a wallet. Each case serves a different purpose, with some putting a greater emphasis on ruggedness while others have the top priority of being flashy with an eye-catching design. There’s also the factor of price. Some cases can be purchased for just a few dollars, with others costing quite a bit more. However, you’d be surprised by how many quality cases are out there for such low prices.
With all of that said, what kind of Galaxy S10 case deals can you look forward to for Black Friday? We should see Samsung offering discounts on its first-party cases, and since these tend to be the most expensive, any savings on those is a blessing. It also wouldn’t be unexpected for some of the third-party case makers to get in on the Black Friday action, too, such as Spigen, Speck, Totallee, and others.
Exact details on Galaxy S10 case savings are still pretty murky, but as we learn more, we’ll get this guide updated accordingly. And, for deals on all other sorts of tech products and accessories, be sure to check out the rest of our Black Friday shopping guides here on Android Central.
