![]() ![]() The kickstand sits in a grove between the two pieces, making it fall out almost constantly during the installation. The case comes in two parts a soft rubbery case and a hard plastic shell. Sadly, it all falls down once you reach the kickstand. Like the other Spigen offerings, the Tough Armor is very well made for the most part, thanks to the soft and grippy rubber sides and hard plastic shell. When I opened the big box of cases sent to me by Spigen, this was the first to come out, as I was curious to see how good it was. Spigen has long been my favorite case maker, and over the years I've owned every one it makes, except for this one. The flimsy feeling kickstand easily falls out when installing the case, and only works in landscape. You can have it in any color you like, so long as it's black or grey. Verdict: Unless you really want a clear back and don't want a kickstand, get the Revolutionīuy: Poetic: S20, S20+, S20 Ultra 5G Spigen Tough Armor Like the other offerings from Poetic, this too is available in multiple colors, although it's only the small piece at the bottom that displays the logo that is different. In my opinion, the Revolution is a more polished product, and only costs an extra $3. Having said that, many may want a chunky, protective case that let's them see their device underneath, and this is fine for those people. I also find it to be an odd choice for something that's supposed to be durable, as dirt and dust will no doubt stain the clear plastic over time. That window is also incredibly thin, making me wonder about long term durability. The back dips in for the transparent window in an attempt to feel thinner in the hand, but becomes less comfortable to hold in the process. ![]() The Guardian is a decent option if you need a lot of protection, but falls short of the Revolution. Once again, all that protection comes with a price. The clear material used on the back feels thin, raising questions about durability. During my testing, I found myself putting this case on when hiking, and taking it off as soon as I returned home. Realistically, unless you're the clumsiest person on the planet, you should only buy this if you spend a lot of time in high-risk environments. If you wear jeans or other tight fitting attire, you're definitely going to feel this in your pocket, provided it even fits. Again, this isn't something most people will need, but if you work where there's plenty of dirt and dust floating around, this will keeping your USB-C port safe and clean. It's nice to have a cover for the charging port as well. This can be negated to an extent, by popping up the kickstand and sliding a finger through it like a built in popsocket. It's certainly not for everyone, as one handed use it almost impossible, even with my large hands. The immense size is justified by the superior protection it provides, and the peace of mind that comes with it. I don't usually like heavy-duty cases, as they often interfere with everyday usage, but the Revolution is, well, a revolution. Over the coming months, we'll continue to update it as new cases and screen protectors are released. We've got reviews of some of the top cases from brands like Spigen, Speck, Poetic, dbrand, Supcase, Pitaka, Ringke, and Samsung itself.This roundup will cover a wide variety of cases, and will discuss the pros and cons of each, as well as the experience of using them. Glass sandwiches may be all the rage in phone design right now, but there's no denying they're fragile, and picking a case to protect your new investment can be tough, especially with so many names and brands out there to choose from. When you're carrying a phone that's more expensive than some people's first cars, it's understandable that you'll want to buy a good case to keep it crack-free. The Galaxy S20 is an incredibly expensive phone, no matter which one you buy, with the range-topping S20 Ultra starting a jaw-dropping $1400.
