The Samsung Galaxy S5 has been released, and so far it’s proving quite a popular phone. If you want to keep your shiny new phone in good condition, you’ll need a good protective Galaxy S5 case<\/a> for it. Here are our top 5 recommendations:<\/p>\n

6. Trident Kraken AMS Case for Galaxy S5<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Trident<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\"Trident<\/a><\/p>\n

This hard Galaxy S5 case<\/a> is built with two materials, to allow for greater impact protection. There’s a silicone inner cover that deadens impacts, with a tough polycarbonate exoskeleton that shrugs off scratches and knocks. The silicone shell can be used on its own for a slimmer phone, or with the exoskelton added in higher risk situations (like exercising or traveling). The case also includes a handy kickstand, allowing you to easily prop up your phone for watching or typing.<\/p>\n

5. Official Samsung Protective Hard Cover for Galaxy S5<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Official<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\"Official<\/a><\/p>\n

This official Samsung option offers a clean fit, a cool metal-look texture and great protection against scratches and drops. The case is made from a tough thermo-plastic, with a tough polymer coating that prevents dust and fingerprints from building up. This is a good choice for Samsung fans.<\/p>\n

4. ElementCase Recon Pro Black Ops for Galaxy S5<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"ElementCase<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\"ElementCase<\/a><\/p>\n

This super-premium case is one of the most stylish I’ve ever seen, with a rare machined aluminium backplate with an anodised mil-spec coating that provides unparalleled protection and rigidity. An included belt clip allows easy access to your phone, and can also transform into a handy media stand. A ‘stealth’ screen protection is also available, preventing strangers from seeing your screen. This is a comprehensive package that offers the very best protection and featureset ever seen in a Galaxy S5 case.<\/p>\n

3. UAG Outland Protective Case for Galaxy S5<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"UAG<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\"UAG<\/a><\/p>\n

Our next Galaxy S5 case is a fair bit cheaper, but still offers good protective abilities and a nice range of colours. It’s called the UAG Outland, and combines a TPU case with a rugged embossed metal insert. A very cool look that’ll definitely appeal.<\/p>\n

2. Otterbox Defender Series for Galaxy S5<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"OtterBox<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\"OtterBox<\/a><\/p>\n

Otterbox is a name that has been trusted for years in mobile phone circles, and their Defender for the Galaxy S5 continues that fine tradition. The Defender is their high-end case, boasting multiple layers of protection with both polycarbonate and rubber materials used. A screen protector is built into the inner case too, preventing the screen from getting scratched. A belt clip is also included!<\/p>\n

1. Spigen SGP Slim Armor Case for Galaxy S5<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Spigen<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0\"Spigen<\/a><\/p>\n

Our number 1 recommended case this time around is the Spigen SGP Slim Armor. This case combines good protection with slim dimensions, multiple colours and a low price. The back of the case is dimpled in the same way as the Galaxy S5 itself, with a two-tone design in white, gold, slate, red or blue. The combination of TPU and hard polycarbonate materials provides good resistance to damage too. All in all, a strong choice for any Galaxy S5 owner.<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n
