The largest phone in the S20 lineup absolutely deserves the rugged protection of a heavy duty case — but that doesn't mean you need to add an inch of opaque plastic to make it even more unwieldy. These days, you can find rugged clear cases and other sleek designs that add extra functionality to your phone. Here are our picks for the best heavy duty cases for the S20 Ultra.
The Ringke Fusion X is the perfect blend of function and style. The rugged TPU bumper protects along with the rigid backplate, which is crystal clear to let the S20 Ultra's design shine through.
Spigen makes some outstanding cases that are sleek and rugged. The Tough Armor style is the best of the bunch with dual-layer protection and a built-in kickstand around the back.
The Vanguard Series is a standout heavy duty case with a built-in kickstand. While the Blue and Orange look like they walked off a construction site, the Red model is much more reserved and cool-looking.
Speck's cases are known for that telltale groove pattern across the back adding grip and style to a case that's durable and stylish. This case also comes with an anti-microbial coating that can help keep your case from getting funky over time.
The Symmetry is a heavy duty case designed for daily use. It's sleek enough to comfortably fit in your pocket yet rugged enough to protect your phone from nasty drops and daily wear and tear.
This hybrid clear case protects the Galaxy S20 Ultra without adding unnecessary bulk. The sleek design is pocket-friendly and intelligently designed to protect the cameras and display.
The UAG Monarch is a great rugged option for an extra-large phone like the Galaxy S20 Ultra. It offers outstanding protection and looks rather stunning in crimson. The ridges along the edges also add some much-needed grip.
Like the Vanguard Series, the Poetic Guardian safely ensconces your S20 Ultra inside a plastic frame that then is covered by a hybrid bumper and a clear polycarbonate back. The color options here are nice and diverse, but the purple has a special place in my heart.
