The Galaxy S6 Active is already a remarkable smartphone especially when it comes to sturdiness. But sometimes you need to go the extra mile to protect your beloved smartphone, and this is where the best cases and covers for Galaxy S6 Active come into play. I understand that the point of owning a Galaxy Active smartphone is because it is quite sturdy, but when you work in an industry that is prone to accidents, you need to invest in a good case as well. This is one of those smartphones that enjoy a great deal of attention from third-party case manufacturers, and you’ll find some of the best cases on this list as well. The cases and covers are not in any particular order because they all offer something different.
1. Tudia Full Matte Arch
This is perhaps the most popular case series from Tudia, and I recently discovered them. This full Matte cover case for the Galaxy S6 Active comes with a very stylish back. Of course, there is an arch on the back that lives up to the brand name. The case is available in 3 different colors, but I feel they are muted and subtle. If you just want a good-looking case that is easy to grip, this case has a lot going for it. There are clear openings for the camera, sensors as well as the rear mounted speakers. The case may not be the thickest, but it will cover all the corners with ease.
2. E LV Slim Case
This case right here is my personal favorite from the list simply because it doesn’t shy away from a style statement. On the back, you’ll find a unique design that is quite pleasing to the eyes as well as provide an exceptional grip. As the case is specially designed for the Samsung Galaxy S6 Active, it comes with all the right openings for the ports as well as sensors. There is a shock absorbing TPU interior protected by hard polycarbonate exterior. This dual layer protection system will help the Galaxy S6 Active withstand drops and bruises.
3. Cimo Shockproof Case
Cimo makes some awesome cases, and this one is no different. It is a shock absorbing dual layered cover for Galaxy S6 Active and comes in 5 different colors. It is made from shatterproof and premium silicone as well as polycarbonate. If you are a person who is constantly dropping their smartphone down, you may want to invest in something a bit more grippy, and this is the case that provides exceptional grip. The back is textured and makes it easier to all the smartphone. The anti-slip properties help in making sure that you don’t even drop your phone at all.
4. i-Blason Armorbox Case
The ArmorBox case may be a bit expensive, but you can clearly see that you are purchasing a premium quality product. While most cases only cover the back and sides, this one goes above and beyond the call of duty and also provides protection from the front. The case comes with a built-in screen protector that covers not only the screen but also the top half of the phone. The impact resistant bumpers on this case allow it to withstand drops and shocks with ease. The back has a military look to it, and it looks awesome. The case is available in 5 different colors and to be frankly honest, the blue and green ones do standout a lot.
5. Cimo Clear Grip
The Samsung Galaxy S6 Active comes with a unique design on the back, and it does look amazing. So naturally, a lot of people would want to show it off in its full glory and slapping a cover on it may diminish the looks. Thankfully, you can easily purchase a clear cover for Galaxy S6 Active that will not only protect your phone but also wouldn’t hinder the dazzling looks from showing out of it. This clear case is made with flexible TPU material and is considerably softer. It is available in 7 different colors, but I recommend that you go for the clear option because it truly looks remarkable.
6. RANZ Rugged Impact
If you want to enjoy multiple functions but don’t have the funds to purchase multiple cases or covers for Galaxy S6 Active, I recommend that you check this case out. It comes with a fairly standard silicone sleeve that is soft to the touch and protects the phone well. But that’s not where the fun ends; it also comes with 2 attachable back plates that provide different utility. You can either attach a rugged hardcover with a kickstand or a 180° rotatable belt clip on the cover. This allows you to do pretty much anything outdoors without the worry of your smartphone being dropped.
7. Supcase Unicorn Beetle Pro
Supcase is one of the best case makers out there today, and their Unicorn Beetle Series is a beloved one. If you want exceptional protection without sacrificing style, this is the case you should get. A point to be noted here is that this case is a bit expensive, almost twice as other common cases. But for that price you’ll be getting a great holster case as well as a built-in screen protector. It is precisely designed for the Galaxy S6 Active so, all the ports, as well as the camera sensors, are not obstructed. The case is made with advanced dual layer protection that combines a shock absorbing core with a harder bumper. The best part? It comes with a 360° swiveling belt clip holster so you can carry it around without the worry of it dropping.
8. OtterBox Defender Case
Want to make sure that whenever you drop your phone, it doesn’t shatter into a zillion pieces? Get this case. This case has gone all out and included a 3 layer protection system that can withstand drops, bumps as well as shocks. There is also a belt clip holster that can double as a kickstand whenever you need it. The case is only available in black color and is one of the most expensive ones I’ve seen. The Defender Case also comes with a one-year case warranty, so at least the manufacturer is confident of their product.
9. Pelican Progear Voyager
This is a 4 layer impact protection case that is surprisingly affordable. The impact absorbing TPR combined with a PU rubber makes it a great cover for Galaxy S6 Active. That’s not all; the rear is placed inside a hard polycarbonate shell to provide a greater level of protection. The case also comes with a screen protector that is scratch resistant. The case is drop tested for durability according to military specifications, so it is at least good for several drops. The design is kind of unique with 4 different sections going on the back of the smartphone. The case is only available in one color, though.
10. Supcase Unicord Beetle
If you don’t go Pro with the Unicorn Beetle case, you can opt for a normal one that is not only inexpensive but can also fit in most pockets. It is a slim and formfitting case that is made with a minimalistic design. One good thing about this case is that it comes with a transparent back that allows the true beauty of the smartphone to shine through. The defined edges, as well as the smooth finish, combine to give a great experience. The case is made with a shock absorbing high-grade TPU as well as a polycarbonate shell on the outside. The case is available in 3 different colors, but I recommend if you have a white Galaxy S6 Active, go with the white version.
Conclusion
I had a lot of fun checking out the cases and covers for Galaxy S6 Active simply because I was not aware that it would need one. The Samsung Galaxy S6 Active is a great smartphone that is purposefully built for outdoor activities and is already quite sturdy. However, for those who need to go the extra mile, a good cover will do a great service. What do you think about these cases? How do you use your Galaxy S6 Active? Tell us in the comments.
