While Samsung’s much awaited flagship Android phones Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge are shipping out now, you’re going to need protective cases to secure your investment and keep your new Galaxy S6 or S6 Edge scratch-free and new-looking for as long as possible.

Even though Samsung have put in a lot of work to make the S6 sturdy (watch Samsung S6 and S6 Edge official drop test) it makes sense to invest in a good case as well. This is why today we will be sharing our selection of the 10 Best Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge cases you can buy on Amazon right now.

#1. Verus Heavy Drop Protection Samsung Galaxy S6 Case Thor Active

If you’re looking for protection, the Verus Thor Active case will provide plenty of it (though not military standard). Its edges prevent accidental drops and slips while the large corners (on the active model) absorb shocks if you happen to drop your Galaxy S6. If you find the active model too bulky you can also check out the regular, more sleeker version.

Both versions cost $18.99 and are available in a wide variety of colors for both the Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 Edge.

There are 5 different color schemes available and we recommend this case if you’re looking for a mix of protection and visual appeal.

#3. Caseology® Envoy Series Premium Samsung Galaxy S6 Case Carbon Fiber Black

Another gem from Caseology, this Envoy series premium Galaxy S6 Case is available at a discounted price of $14.99 right now and has 6 different color and material variations, including leather bound backs instead of the carbon fiber design shown in the preview image above.

You get basic protection with this case and it’s more of a bumper with a raised front lip to prevent your device from falling flat on its screen. However, this design and it’s variants are quite appealing and should make their way to your S6 cases collection.
