No matter your taste, your Galaxy S22 needs a case to add grip, protection, and style to your pocket-friendly flagship
The Samsung Galaxy S23 might have replaced the Galaxy S22 on the list of our favorite Android phones, but it's still an impressive device. Like any smartphone, though, it's made of glass and metal, which means one drop could spell disaster for your little device. Luckily, tons of exceptional cases are available for the Galaxy S22 — from bulky military-grade options to simpler slim-fit cases. We've compiled this list of the best to help you find something that fits your style and needs.
Best Samsung Galaxy S23 screen protectors in 2023
S23's beautiful AMOLED screen deserves the best protection
The latest addition to Samsung's flagship lineup — the Galaxy S23, alongside its Plus and Ultra counterparts — is the crème de la crème of smartphones. It's easily one of the best Android phones presently. And owning such a device means you'd be going about your day with a sleek, powerful beast that's bound to stay relevant for many years.
Best Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra screen protectors in 2023
Take care of your S23 Ultra's display with one of these great screen protectors
Samsung phones have had exceptional displays for as long as we can remember, but that's not surprising when you realize it also manufactures the displays in most of its rivals' phones. The Galaxy S23 Ultra is as exceptional as you'd expect, with a pin-sharp 6.8-inch 1440x3088 display that can vary its refresh rate anywhere between 1-120Hz and achieve a max brightness of 1,750 nits. Add HDR10+ certification, and you have a gorgeous AMOLED screen that deserves to be kept pristine.
Best Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 cases in 2023
While the Flip 4 is quite compact, it's still expensive and delicate, so give it the best case you can
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 is the closest we've seen to a mainstream foldable, thanks to its unrivaled popularity. The Galaxy Z Flip 4 kept the strengths of the Z Flip 3 and fixed the vast majority of its weaknesses, especially in the battery department. Flip foldables are becoming popular due to their relatively lower price than the Galaxy Folds of the world, the big hit of Star Trek-fueled nostalgia, and the ability to fold a phone into a small pocket square.
Best power banks in 2023
Keep your phone and other devices alive for days, even when outlets are far away
The best power banks make it easy to charge wherever you go, whether you need to juice up your phone or your laptop. Even the best Android phones and best Chromebooks can use a bit of battery help now and then. A portable power bank will help you get through busy work days, network tethering, hectic travel, and extended camping or festival trips. They're also great for emergencies when you need a charge, and no working AC outlet is nearby.
Best Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra cases in 2023
Your shiny new superphone needs the ultimate in protection and practicality
The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is a more significant upgrade than expected, especially in international markets where the old Exynos chips were yeeted out of existence in favor of the superior Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Like most modern flagship phones, the S23 Ultra is a metal and glass sandwich, and while those materials have been upgraded to armored aluminum and Gorilla Glass Victus 2, they'll still damage easily when dropped.
The best Google Nest Hub mounts and stands in 2023
Have a Google Nest device but can't put it up in the right place? Don't worry; these custom-built wall mounts and holders will help you out.
The Google Nest Hub is a fantastic device that connects directly to smart appliances like lights, fans, air conditioners, smart TVs, and more. It also responds to everything you say to it. From music and videos to alarms and sleep sensing, the Nest Hub is your one-stop control and entertainment panel for your smart home. But simply having a Nest Hub won't do you much good if you don't have a designated area to put it.
The best waterproof headphones and earbuds for swimming in 2023
Enjoy your favorite tunes in the deep end with the best waterproof headphones and earbuds
Listening to music while in the water requires waterproof headphones made for swimming. And while most earbuds are made to handle some moisture — like protecting against a sweaty workout — they are not made to handle extended periods of time in or underwater.
If you are looking for something different and more durable than the Samsung Galaxy S23 series, then the Samsung Galaxy XCover6 Pro may be what you are looking for. This phone is strong enough to pass the rigorous MIL-STD-810H testing and can withstand whatever you throw at it. The Galaxy XCover6 Pro is hands down one of the best rugged Android phones on the market.
Cooler Master Storm Controller review: You get what you pay for
This gaming controller cuts numerous corners to hit its price point
Cooler Master’s Storm Controller is an Android and Windows gaming controller that aims to offer the essentials at a great value. I spent the last few weeks testing the Storm Controller to see how it stacks up against the best Android controllers on the market. While its massive battery sets it apart from many of its competitors, cheap construction and mushy buttons make it hard to recommend.
Best OnePlus 10T cases in 2023
We've rounded up some of the best cases to preserve the classy look of your OnePlus 10T while ensuring it gets the protection it needs
The OnePlus 10T is a fascinating entry in the company's lineup: A second-tier model that actually delivers more raw power than the flagship OnePlus 10 Pro, with a top-notch Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ CPU, more RAM, and even faster charging. It mostly falls short of its pricier sibling in the camera system, but if you're looking for one of the best OnePlus phones with great value and advanced photography isn't a priority, it's hard to go wrong with the OnePlus 10T.
Google’s Find My network could work with existing Bluetooth trackers
Chipolo, eufy, and Pebblebee trackers should be supported
Google has seemingly been working on its own version of Apple's Find My Network since at least 2021. Over two years later, all signs point to the impending launch of the network, which should make finding your lost or stolen Android phone easier. The "Finder network" should also benefit the rumored Nest tile tracker, which will seemingly be Google's alternative to Apple AirTags. But it won't be the only tracking tag to take advantage of the network, as many existing third-party Bluetooth trackers will reportedly benefit from it as well.

This $35 Anker deal gives you a kickass charger and power bank all in one
A nifty little 2-in-1 wall charger and portable power bank just dropped to its lowest price
If you're waiting hours for your devices to reach full charge, it might be time for you to consider upgrading your charger to something better. The proprietary chargers that come with most devices get the job done, but they rarely do so with the speed and efficiency that third party chargers are capable of.
Best Amazon Kindle Paperwhite cases in 2023
A good case can keep your Kindle Paperwhite safe and sound
The 11th-gen Kindle Paperwhite is one of the best e-readers in Amazon's portfolio and a significant step up from the base Kindle model. It packs a high-resolution e-ink display, a water-resistant design, and a bright backlight. But all these upgrades don't come cheap, and if you want to keep your nifty little e-reader safe from scratches, dents, and drops, it's a good idea to invest in a case.
Amazon Echo Auto (2nd gen) review: Surprisingly great and utterly useless
This tiny speaker/microphone combination connects your car up to Amazon's digital assistant, but who is it for, exactly?
The second-generation Amazon Echo Auto is a smaller, detachable contraption that does exactly what you'd imagine: bring the powers of Alexa to your dashboard courtesy of a little microphone/speaker combination that you attach somewhere in your car. Plug the Echo Auto into a spare USB port or 12V power output (commonly known as the "cigarette lighter"), go through a pretty comprehensive onboarding process, and Alexa will be waiting for you at the end, ready to receive your commands. But do you really need it?
Chromebooks have steadily gained popularity over the years due to their portability, affordability, and simplicity. These lightweight laptops are powered by Google's Chrome OS, which is optimized for speed and efficiency. Furthermore, they come equipped with cloud storage and other user-friendly features, making them an excellent choice for individuals seeking ease of use.

Every bookworm worth their salt owns or wants to buy an e-reader. These devices are a more portable and convenient alternative to paperback or hardcover books, with displays that look and feel like paper and batteries that can last for weeks or months. Some e-readers even have the added advantage of writing and drawing with an active stylus pen.
Best Samsung Galaxy S23+ wallet cases in 2023
Protect your high-end smartphone and keep a couple of cards and a little cash on hand
The Samsung Galaxy S23+ is reasonably durable overall, but it's also covered in glass. Since it's decently large, you want to consider a wallet case so you can leave your actual wallet at home and keep one of your pockets free. Capacities range from one card to four, with some folio cases offering a slot for cash or small papers. What's more, there's a great selection of stylish, eye-catching, and sometimes customizable designs available in case the average case is too bland for you. Some are also only marginally bigger than the best Galaxy S23+ cases we've used.

Wireless location-tracking accessories, like Apple’s AirTags and Google’s upcoming Nest Locator Tags, are designed to help people track down missing items, but they have also led to the emergence of safety issues with unwanted tracking and stalking. There have already been targeted efforts to prevent misuse, such as Apple launching an app to find unknown AirTags, and Tile threatening a $1 million fine for those who misuse its trackers. Now, Google and Apple are teaming up for an overarching solution to combat the misuse of Bluetooth trackers.
