The best Samsung Galaxy S23 FE cases you can buy

Samsung’s budget “Fan Edition” flagships are back, but a lower price tag doesn’t mean you should throw all caution to the wind. The Gorilla Glass 5 used for the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE is significantly less resistant than the Gorilla Glass Victus 2 found in the flagship S23 lineup, so you’ll need to take care. On that note, here are the best Samsung Galaxy S23 FE cases you can buy at launch.

However, keep in mind that some may not be officially available until the device itself is shipped later this month. Want to learn more? Check out our in-depth guides to the best phone cases and the best phone accessories you can buy.

For a simple and thin case to keep your Galaxy S23 FE safe, the Spigen Liquid Air is hard to beat. It has a nice rubberized texture on the back that adds a lot of extra grip, plus military-grade drop protection if you do somehow manage to drop it. Our only complaint is a lack of color. At launch, it will only be available in matte black, with an abyss green option coming soon after. However, both are pretty dark. Still, this is one of the cheapest Galaxy S23 FE cases you can buy, so it’s an easy recommendation from us.

The Spigen Rugged Armor is another alternative, and it drops the fully rubberized backing for a more standard design. It does still feature grips on the sides, and it maintains the same low price, too.

If you want something with a bit more style, the Caseology Parallax is always one of our favorites. It has a unique hexacore pattern on the back, which adds visual interest and a little extra grip. It’s not the thinnest case available, but it does have good drop protection to keep your device safe. We were a bit disappointed that the Galaxy S23 FE version of this case only comes in matte black and sage green, but it’s very affordable and a great pick for just about anyone.

On the surface, this Torras case has a simple design with a clear backing and TPU bumpers, but it has a trick up its sleeve that no other Galaxy S23 FE case on our list has: magnets. The built-in magnet array in the back is fully compatible with MagSafe accessories like chargers, wallets, mounts, and more. If you’ve ever wanted to explore the world of magnetic cases, this is a great option to do so. If not, there are better and cheaper options out there.

As far as thin Galaxy S23 FE cases go, the Spigen Thin Fit does exactly what it says on the tin. It’s a very simple PC and TPU case with a form-fitting design that adds virtually no bulk to your device. This also means it doesn’t offer much drop protection, and like most Spigen cases for the Galaxy S23 FE, it only comes in matte black. Note this this case may not ship until slightly after launch, so check the link below for availability.

Thin silicone cases are great if you want something thin with grip, and the Foluu Silicone case is the cheapest Galaxy S23 FE case on our list. It’s a simple, form-fitting case that’s available in four different colors. It won’t offer too much drop protection, but for less than $10, this is a fantastic little case.

There are a lot of clear cases on the market, but the Spigen Ultra Hybrid is the one we recommend the most. It’s not particularly unique and it doesn’t have any extra features, but it’s reliable and nails the simple clear case design, plus it’s very affordable. Spigen has a Zero One edition with the device internals printed on the back coming soon, but it will not be available when the Galaxy S23 FE launches.

For a more feminine touch, check out the CYRILL Cecile. CYRILL is a sub-brand of Spigen, so the case has the same high-quality build as the Ultra Hybrid above, but with a floral design printed on the back. You’re going to pay a slight premium for the printed design, but overall the case is still an affordable option.

While the Spigen Tough Armor doesn’t have as many bells and whistles as most rugged phone cases, it does offer more protection than the rest of the company’s offerings. It features a hard PC exterior with Impact Foam inside for extra drop protection, but it doesn’t pack on the bulk as much as traditional rugged cases. There’s a kickstand on the back, but otherwise the design is quite clean and plain. Unfortunately, it only comes in black and dark green colorways.

For ultimate protection for your Galaxy S23 FE, look no further than the Supcase Unicorn Beetle. This case is made to take a beating with thick bumpers, raised lips, and even a built-in screen protector and kickstand. Obviously this will add quite a bit of bulk to your Galaxy S23 FE, but there’s also a belt holster to keep your pockets nice and light. Thankfully, this won’t lighten your wallet, since it’s surprisingly affordable for all of the features it has.

The Spigen Slim Armor CS is a simple cardholder case. It features a closing door on the back with space for a few cards or cash, but like the name suggests it doesn’t add much bulk to your device. This also means that it doesn’t hold much, and we have had trouble fitting several embossed cards in the past. Still, this is a very cheap wallet case for the Galaxy S23 FE, although it only comes in black.
