Spigen Tough Armor Designed for Galaxy S23 Ultra Case (2023) [Kickstand] [Military-Grade Protection] - Black

This case is on my Galaxy S23 ultra. I had my phone on top of an 8 foot ladder (dumb, I know) and knocked it onto the ground, it landed on the edge of the bottom corner and bounced. My phone had no damage. The protection for the screen is the raised edges. But your screen is still vulnerable as with most cases out there. I got a black one and it looks nice. It is no too thick to fit in my pocket. I also use a wireless charger with it. The kickstand works but feels a little thin. But that also helps it fold flat into the case and not make it thicker. It is easy to put on and take off if you need to. Great case, I like it.

I used Spigen Rough Armor cases for my previous two phones (Galaxy S7 Edge and Galaxy S10+) and have always been happy with the look, durability, and stability of them. When I first chose a Spigen case it was after going through five other cases and not liking any of them. They were either floppy on the sides to the point I was afraid of the phone falling out or they didn't fit well around the phone. The Spigen cases had none of that. Fast forward to my latest phone, a Galaxy S23 Ultra. Considering how much the phone costs, I decided to up the protection and get a hard shell. The Spigen Tough Armor takes the great look and fit of the Rough Armor and adds in a hard layer around the outside. This case provides even better protection and looks great. I went with all black but I also purchased the gunmetal version for my child's Galaxy S23+. I have to say, I like the look of the gunmetal version even better than my black one. Of note, I'm also using a set of ESR camera lens protectors with this case. They fit inside the lens cutouts perfectly. No issue getting the case on with the lens protectors installed and the face of the protectors is still recessed in the case. Only thing I worry about with this case is the durability of the kickstand. Hopefully it holds up, and I don't use it very often, but I'll update if it does run into issues.

The durable Spigen Tough Armor case has both the looks and the braun, and is a perfect fit for my Samsung S23 Ultra. This case utilizes high-quality materials for superior protection. My phone flew out of my hand once when I was taking it out of my pocket during a workout. It slammed into my weight machine pretty hard and there was not a single scratch to the phone or the case. The phone surely would have broken if I did not have this case. While durable, it is not clunky at all. It provides a sleek design that fits tightly over the S23 Ultra. The way it contours each camera lens gives it a premium look, which I appreciated much more than some of the other open lens cover designs. The Samsung S23 Ultra itself is a very large phone with sharp corners, making it very uncomfortable to hold without a case. The Spigen Tough Armour does a great job to make this phone comfortable to hold. I compared it to 4 other premium cases, including the Spigen Cryo Armor, which I also loved. But at the end of the day, the Tough Armor appeared to be much more durable, felt more comfy, provided great screen and camera lens protection, and just looks damn sexy! While not quite as grippy as some other rubberized cases, the Tough Armor has a premium satin feel and does not feel slippery. That being said, there probably is a little room for improvement, maybe by adding more textures on the sides and back to provide even better grip. The satin material does pick up some smudges, but not nearly as bad as more glossy cases. This is easy to clean up with a quick wipe down, however. The case itself has good rise above the screen on the sides and extra lip on top and bottom for added protection. It is compatible with the Whitestone Dome Glass screen protector, which I also highly recommend with this case. As mentioned before, the cutouts for the camera lenses provide a sleek and sexy look. It not only fits snuggly around each lens, but the extra depth protects the awesome S23 Ultra camera lenses. And it is completely compatible with Spigen EZ Fit Optik Pro lens protectors. The button coverings feel good and are very responsive. The one minor drawback is that + and - volume buttons are flush with each other. There is only a very fine line separating them, so it is hard to tell which button you are pressing. But the - volume button is just above the indented power button which serves as a good reference, so no big deal. This case also features a neat little kickstand. While not as robust as the ones on some other cases, it does its job well enough. I have been super impressed with this case. For as big as the S23 Ultra phone is, this case is comfortable and has a very slim design while maintain optimal protection. I highly recommend it as it will protect your investment.

The case does seem like it'll do it's job with fall damage. It has padding that absorbs shock which makes the case a bit bulky. I love the cutouts for the camera. Grip is also there without any trouble putting it in or taking it out of my pocket. The bulk makes it a bit uncomfortable to hold in the hand and in all honestly I do prefer a bit more comfort. The stand feels sturdy enough, but can still break if careless. The biggest issue with the phone that will definately turn someone off is the side buttons. It's difficult to tell which button you're pressing without feeling it out a little bit. Not too uch of a deal break but eventually it got to me when I kept accidently lower my volume instead of increasing it. Thats just one example of my problems with the buttons. The design i plain and boring. For the price I'de say it's an excellent case for protecting your phone, but with minor discomforts.

When it comes to high-quality mobile phone protection, Spigen has always been a reliable brand, and the Tough Armor Case for the Galaxy S23 Ultra is no exception.

The inner layer consists of a shock-absorbent TPU material that wraps around the device, effectively dissipating impact forces. On the outside, a rugged polycarbonate shell offers additional protection, safeguarding the phone from everyday hazards. One standout feature of this case is its reinforced corners, which provide extra cushioning against falls. Even if your Galaxy S23 Ultra happens to land on one of its corners, you can have peace of mind knowing that the case will absorb most of the impact, leaving your device unscathed.

I dropped my phone in a parking lot. A car tire park on top of the phone with this case on it. The screen didn't crack, and nothing on the phone broke. This is awesome case.

2nd time using it, lasts about 2 years with day to day activities would recommend

Spigen everthing!!! I've swapped phones like crazy and I've chosen spigen for my last 6 times for my phone and my wife's phone due to the quality and capability of keeping our phones safe. My wife has always had iPhone and I've always had Samsung, but she has owned this style of case with hers due to a kickstand and I've always chosen the hybrid. She's dropped her phone multiple times and it is always good to go! I ordered a spigwn hybrid for my ultra 23 and hated it! First spigen that was bad due to its bulky and grippy sides. Got stuck in and out of my pocket and almost dropped it a few times. I ordered the kickstand version thinking it was going to be bulkier, but surprised that the weights are the same and not too much thicker. The hybrid says low profile but this kickstand version is pretty low profile. I put them side by side and they are relatively close. Biggest difference is being able to easily slide it in and out of my pocket without getting stuck, but still have enough grip to hold on to it. Additionally, I now have a kickstand when I need it! Honestly, I didn't think it would be, but it's a way better case than the spigen hybrid! I'll also say that I like the buttons better than hybrid.
