- The final showdown! Which case is the best case for the S23 Ultra? I rank them according to my own opinion, so yours can of course be different. In this tier list video, I'll show you what I think about each and every one case I had for the S23 Ultra. The top cases, but also the bad ones.
No brand paid me. Some send me cases for free, but I'll still trash them if I don't like the cases. None influence me in any way to make me say something in their favor. This is why I would appreciate it very much if you would use my affiliate link, so I earn a small commission per sale

Then stick around on the channel by hitting that subscribe button.

The most protective case from all of your lists is the ghostek right? It has the most thick front bezel
@@snowblow2201 Yes for sure
Personally after owning the Otterbox Defender Pro, I'd say the Otterbox Defender Pro is the most protective case. He didn't rank that nor do I physically have the Ghostek to do so, but the Otterbox Defender Pro has a really thick lip.@@snowblow2201
The otterbox defender pro is insane, were all these under 60? If so that'd explain why I didn't see it.
@@PrototypeCM-XC-IX what's your experience with it?
Idc what they put on the back, I will never justify nor recommend anyone to buy Casetify cases when they cost that much
Don't forget that they stole dbrands xray images for their own cases💀
First! Great video. I love how you gave the pros and cons of each. You covered a lot of the expensive options which a lot of people do research for before buying. I have 3 cases the pitaka one for magsafe, the mous fabric that's my favorite and the samsung silicon. but now I think I want one from your S tier haha. Thank you so much for putting this together you are going to help a lot of people save money and decide what they really want.
Thank you so much for your kind comment 👊 Glad to help
Hello bro!! Great video!! 1 question....What is that tool green do you use to see the magnetic ring on the casings?
Thank you! It’s called magnetic paper
This is a Great Video. Thanks Allot! 🙂👍
Thank you!
I think you missed out by skipping the UAG Pathfinder. It's the middle-of-the-road case in the UAG lineup, not too thin/dull (like the Plyo) and not too bulky/over-designed (like the Monarch). Protection and grippiness is top notch, and it keeps the phone light as well.
Excellent review man, the best I've ever seen. Just want to say, that a got the UAG Civilian , and it's amazing. The only lack is the grip, but super solid and beautiful. Best regards and keep up the amazing job.
Thank you so much for your support!
Magbak !! Great video !!
magnetic-heat-dissipation-stand-case-for-samsung-s23-series have you ever encounter this case . seem like having a case focusing on protection and heat dissipation would be helpful
great, fair reviews
Does the Magbak interfere much with the SPen?
Hi mate i love your content, question tho, in which tier would you place the 1.QuadLock case 2.UAG metropolis 3.UAG monarch for samsung galaxy s23 ultra ?? NOTE: I am not a fan of magsafe. I am considering the Ghostek atomic slim and applying the Quadlock adhesive Original universal adaptor (non mag).
Thank you bro! 1. Haven’t checked it 2. E tier, not that good. The material isn’t comfortable 3. Like C/D tier. Pretty good case, but for pasting accessories, not so good since there isn’t enough flat area. Same problem you’ll have with the Ghostek
I've got Ringke Fusion X camo for my Galaxy S23. It looks sturdy without making it bulky. It is gripy and buttons are clicky. Provides all round protection for camera and screen as the lips are raised. Also the rear camo looks awesome.
Which screen guard/protector you're using? What's the camo case compatible with? Can we use tempered glass?
@@MegaChutku i don't use any kind of screen protector, got some deep scratches. I only use case, that too i remove most of the times i like the raw feel of the metal and frosted glass back.
I would suggest go for ringke tempered glass, good quality and affordable.
ghostek is a beast on its own in my opinion. Have the black one on the black 23U. Look sexy af and protective while firm grasp atr the same time time. I can see the back logo and body of the phone, which is perfect. It feels premium , which is what i want. It may feel a bit bulkier and heavier but hey, your hands get used to it
If you take the large plastic piece off the elastic band of the grip case it becomes S tear. Takes up no extra thickness with just the band and still gives you something for your fingers to get under. I always used an aftermarket loop/kickstand thing but they always need up breaking. this is everything other stan the kickstand in a super slim case that offers good protection. one of Samsung's best cases
I Have The Cyro Armour For My S21 Ultra & It's My Second Favorite Case Over The OtterBox. I Do Agree With You About The Gimmick (Stops Overheat Towards The Phone) It's BS. , But The Style Is Awesome!
I do have it for my s23 ultra and I also love it and the denaly not that much haha different opinions but really fun to watch
@@MelieKicks What are the aspects of the Denali you don't like? I am thinking of buying it.
@Carlos Figueiredo I think it is too slippery even with the grooves on the back, I just prefer cases with more grip,I do believe the casalogy Athlex has no competitor on that end
@MelMorningstar 100 I think the grooves are actually counterproductive for the case's grippiness and more for aesthetiscs. I will look elsewhere. Thanks for your response!
Can someone help me choose?
I am between the ringke air-S and Fusion-X, I would like to know what is the advantage of each one and if possible if it is compatible with a 1 gen razer kishi.
brother, could you recommend screen protectors? I've struggled to find a good one at Amazon
I have used both Whitestone and AmFilm and I prefer the AmFilm. It's just a wee bit thicker than Whitestone and that makes a difference from a durability perspective.
If you can't get the AmFilm, then Whitestone will be fine as well
Any thoughts on the new Zagg Everest Case?
I was hoping you would review the Samsung Leather case. I have heard mixed reviews on those.
And the ESR cases
There is two problems with samsung cases the side edges and the camera cut outs, if you use lenses protectors forget the samsung cases...
However i've esr shock armor and i'm very surprised...
I grabbed the Magbak and am blown away
I'll probably get the Rokform since I bike a lot and I already have the mount on my bike. Easy choice. I wonder, though, if the magnets are strong enough to affect a credit card's magnetic stripe.
Mous also has a similar Rokform case for you to consider.
got the Mous Evolution Intralock Case and it would be definately S-Tier in your list, you should try to get your hands on one of those. Its like the others you mentioned but with the awesome quick lock it sits rock solid on my bike with their mount. it looks also very nice with the blue side buttons. Its like a nicer looking Rockform with an way easier lock mechanism.
Got a spigen neo hybrid on the way to me. Currently rocking a spigen rugged armor 2 piece. Spigen is always my go to for cases.
Does this tier list also include cases with the most protection, aside from comfort and looks? I know comfort is a big deal, since our phones spend more time in our hands than falling out of them 😂 I'd love to find something cute, comfortable, and feel good about it being protected, since I know I'll accidentally fling it across the concrete sooner or later!
Ringke Air (silicon) is definitely both if you want a cheap, good, comfortable and protected case!
Hi, do you know how does the magbak case age after a couple of weeks/month ? Is it like the silicone samsung case ? Thanks
It ages perfectly, only the fact that the back can look a little smudgy at times
spigen liquid air is an awesome case. Got one in my s22u, and ordered one for my upcoming s23u
Meh, it’s ok
@@Unfilterd The cutouts are perfect and the amount of protection you get for a very slim case with the price tag, its honestly really amazing
@@Rubz22no, it's not. I have one for my s23 u, and the sides a VERY flimsy, along with it being slippery, not grippy. I don't like the case, so I'ma get a new ringke one instead
I have a Torras case for my S23U and it feels premium. Awesome texture and hand feel. Very happy with it.
I can no longer recommend the otterbox commuter case. The corners of the case started to expand after 3 months of use, and made the phone look weird.
What about Caudabe and ESR cases?
Ok, pausing the video now. I'm sorry - Ringke Air S is S Tier? Nah fam...it may be comfy but as a case too little protection and too thin. Amazon reviews show that they stain super easy as well. Prob gonna be more like B/C tier.
P.S. - Really hoped for a mention of the Rokform Eagle 3, maybe too new for the review?
P.S.S. - Love the video format for phone cases! Great implementation of a tried and true idea here, keep it up 🎉
To be honest, I think that the Ringke Air S gives more protection than most thin cases out there. But of course, the bigger the case the smaller the risk with dropping. Staining is similar to the Magbak one, it’s really more of a “you see it more on this material” issue. But the comfy level makes up for that. Thanks for your compliment 🙏🏻
Gotta say, I don't agree with the placement of the Rokform case. I bought one and you can't use the S Pen in a good portion of the screen if you're using the magnet attachment. I mean that's fine, you can just endlessly swap out the back piece for different things. But that's annoying and tends to mess with any screen protector you're using. Constantly popping the phone in and out of a case is bad for the edges of any screen protector.
You also can't write where the fingerprint scanner is because of the case's magnets. I would absolutely not recommend this case to anyone knowing that. It's a big, bulky, heavy case, and it messes with the functionality of the phone.
What's the wallpaper on the pitaka case?
How do you get those homescreen folder Widget's? They look great beside your clock on your homescreen
Check my dedicated video “how I customise my S23U”
Love my spiegen options. Got it for 15. Better than a uag, or ringke
To each their own brother
Hey o7
Can anyone tell me where i can get the wallpaper whats shown at 3.35 min ?
Thanks and greetings to you all!
What about Spigen rugged armor case. I have that one. Which tier?
Spigen cases are really good, been using them on all my phones. Great protection and even better price.
I have the original samsung smart view cover but I worry how well it will protect when the phone is dropped..?
Not very good, flap will open when it falls
do you have any magsafe charger suggestions for s23 ultra?
Don’t have one atm, but the Nomad one looks good
gatta love the world of warcraft tier list
Bro can we use camera protection lenses with Uag polao case?
Yes you can
Any case with a single camera cutout can't be considered as S Tier. They should be below A Tier.
True. Lame P design
Thanks
Why, WHY, didn't you review the Otterbox Defender case, their best case?
Great content. For me, here are my top 5 cases. 1, supcase unicorn beetle pro. 2, DEXNOR Shielder. 3, poetic spartan. 4, otterbox defender pro. 5, ghostek nautical.
From your list i've the poetic spartan and the otterbox defender, the spartan is more heavy but the texture and the more raised edges feels more safe....
@J_R83 poetic is a good case. I have it in green, red. But for the best lip protection, I'd say supcase unicorn beetle pro and I-Blason Armorbox. The best grip is otterbox Defender Pro. And the lip is pretty good.
What launcher/theme do you have on?
Check my last video
23:00 Timeout here 😂 you put the POS ZAGG case in the "A" tier but the Samsung Fugged case in the "C" tier???
Having had both cases (I PROMPTLY returned the ZAGG case after experiencing how thin and non-protective here) - the Samsung case is a far better case.
YES YES, it is a bulky case and the loop for a lanyard is just criminal, but for the money - it provides more than enough protection.
IT IS THE ONLY CASE THAT HAS RAISED SIDE EDGES TO FULLY PROTECT THE SCREEN vs. all other cases being tapered at the sides to account for the curved screen.
I also am a UAG fan and was disappointed in the case for the S22 Ultra. I have had to replace my wife's glass screen protector 5 times (and counting) due to the side of the screen being exposed and easily prone to cracking
The 23 ultra plyo does yellow. Mine did in a small amount of use time. Don't make a bold statement that isn't true.
Why not show the otterbox defender I feel like most hard working people don't bother with the symmetry and stuff, it's straight defender or broken phone
Shout out to you hard working people, the defender is a good choice
Would you say dbrand is the top case if it wasnt for the sticker?
Hmm as far as grip goes yes, but not as far as comfort goes
Those cases are huge....
Why you didn't mention the Spigen tough armor case bro??????
Bro it’s so mid, I thought they quit that one years ago 😂
Bro how is UAG Monarch case??? Kindly suggest !!
Looks like the magbak wallets cover the bottom camera no?
It looks like it, but they don’t block the camera when taking photos. I wouldn’t use it anyway, it just looks bad being so close to the camera
They have to be close because wireless charging using magsafe won't work as Samsung ofc didn't design s23u with magsafe in mind the camera placement isn't ideal not the spen impact of magnetic accessories.
can i turn a ringke air s case to magsafe?
Yeah for sure, with that paste on magsafe ring. Link in description
What about the spigen tough armor ?
Meh
@@Unfilterd didn't like it ? I thought it looked sleek
UAG, after just over 10 months the case is almost completely yellow and start stretching on the edges. It looks like the case got old and is hitting its sunset years. For the money, I have to say this is below F.
Which case specifically? Plyo?
do a rinke air s drop test?
Hands down this time the Samsung leather is the winner for me.
The Air S is so slippery doesn't it??
Zero One case is way too slick to hold. No grip at all, especially if your hands are wet or oily.
Rugged gadget case is far superior all corners, raise lips 4 corners. At the end of the day it is the owner who will decide. For me rugged gadget case.
Good choice
Otterbox defender, is the best one and you didn't even test it out or feel it...
Pikata cases only have 2 months warranty which is ridiculous
What happened to your case after the 2 month period?
Casetify protection is unmatched? Lol there's so many other cases that are just as protective if not more.
Name 2, with the same size so don’t mention something like an Otterbox defender
@@Unfilterd UAG cases have plenty in that slimmer profile with great protection, Mous as well, dBrand, Phone Rebel, Otterbox Symmetry and even tech21. Casetify is decent but your statement saying it's "unmatched" is hilarious.
are you kidding me?? 73€ for a phonecase?! Ive always had Spigen cases, they look nice, they offer great protection and from the moment i put my first Spigen case on a phone I never had a broken phone again. The standard spigen cases cost between 15 and 30€. I think everything above 40€ for a f**** phonecase is incredibly overpriced.
Magbak the best!
I agree 😎
Dbrand!
All others are peasant tier...
Hahah peasant tier, I need to add that in the next video
Yeah, the otterbox defender blows all of these out of the water, there's nothing like it, what tier list are you making bud?!
Yeah, no
You're just reviewing ornaments then, not actual phone protection, you are just a phony, here's a tip if you really want to be an expert, get a phone for each of your cases and then drop it from 30 ft. then make a tier list. So here it is. I can see now why some brands did not reach out to you.
I got nothing against you man, i just don't like when people give they're opinions on products they haven't actually tested.@@Unfilterd
Spigen cryo is an F tier????
What about later case
Haven’t checked it out yet, will do
@UNFILTERD Later case is SO high quality Kind of like patika case It's Will from unboxing therapies brand.
Shpigen :D :D :D
Ssshhhpigen cases
Allo comment sa va ta mère
They all suck, they are all too thick. A naked S23 Ultra feels great, but with a case, not so much. The only good case in my opinion is the Thinborne one not listed here: Slim and protective plus very, very stylish
Good video; please trim your nails properly. It hurts to watch.
