The buttons are clicky, there is a magnet embedded within the center for Qi2 assist, and the perimeters across the display screen and cameras are raised pretty effectively.

It additionally has a built-in lanyard, comes with a magnet for Qi2 charging, and has clicky buttons. The plain black design is boring although, and the fabric is slippery.

Latercase Thin Case for $59: This is one other super-thin case for individuals who hate conventional cumbersome circumstances. It is constituted of aramid fibers and can maintain your telephone scratch-free (not less than, the again of it). There is no safety for the underside edge, the buttons, or the highest edge, so it is fairly minimal. I just like the gentle texture of the fabric although, and it appears fairly. There are sadly no magnets for Qi2 performance. The excellent news is that not like many skinny circumstances I’ve examined, this one may be very simple to take away.
Tech21 EvoArmor and EvoClear Magnetic Cases for $50: These are some strong, easy, and smart-looking magnetic circumstances with Qi2 performance.

Surprisingly, wi-fi charging works, although there aren’t any magnets right here, so you do not get Qi2 assist. The underside edge can also be weirdly not protected.
Samsung Silicone Case for $30 and Rugged Case for $60: Samsung’s official Silicone case does the job, however I am unsure what it does greater than the cheaper choices above.

They’re useful circumstances, simply too costly.

The buttons on all of those are barely stiffer than on the opposite circumstances I’ve examined—not horrible, however simply sufficient to note. Many of those do not have magnets in them however the Santa Cruz Snap does, and it labored effectively on my Qi2 and Qi charger. The sides are grippy, which is why I prefer it.
Benks ArmorAir Case for $40: This case is one other ultra-thin case, however it’s constituted of Kevlar fiber, although how a lot sturdiness that gives when it is this skinny is questionable. What bugs me is that the digital camera module shifts ever so barely. It is a type of issues that after you discover, you will not cease feeling and seeing it shift each time. A minimum of it covers extra edges than the Latercase, and it additionally has magnets in-built for Qi2 assist.
