After an endless stream of leaks, the Galaxy S21 series is now official, ready to take on the premium smartphone market.

The Galaxy S21 line consists of three models - the Galaxy S21, the Galaxy S21+, and the Galaxy S21 Ultra. The big news is that the top model will support Samsung’s stylus - the S-Pen - normally a Galaxy Note exclusive. The design of the Galaxy S21 line has evolved quite a bit since the S20.

The camera bump now flows seamlessly into the frame of the phone, creating a unique look but also posing some questions about durability and drop protection. That’s where the cases come in but given the unique design, the Galaxy S21+ cases face a tough decision - to go the fashion route or to stay strong and cover this interesting feature.

Here are the best Samsung Galaxy S21+ cases: both from Samsung itself and from third-party providers.

Will Samsung Galaxy S21 cases fit the S21+?

Not a chance. Although the design of those two devices is practically the same, the size is different, which means that S21 and S21+ cases are NOT interchangeable. So, be extra careful if you want to order a case for your new Galaxy S21 or S21+. Meanwhile, sales for the Galaxy S21 is now open on all major carriers and Samsung.com:

Samsung Galaxy S21+ Leather Cover case

The Leather Cover case is an all-time favorite - it combines the stylish leather look and feel with a sleek and practical design.
