The best Samsung Galaxy A53 cases to buy (2022)

Few phones achieve the same level of value as the Samsung Galaxy A53, but the plastic back and Gorilla Glass 5 screen won’t hold up to drops nearly as well as their more premium counterparts. To help you keep your device safe, we’ve tested and selected the very best Samsung Galaxy A53 cases you can buy below.

The Spigen Liquid Air nearly always takes a top spot in our favorite cases, and the same is true for the best Galaxy A53 cases. It hits the right spot between weight, protection, and price that’s nearly impossible to beat. The tight-fitting case features MIL-STD-810G-rated toughness with a textured rubbery back to enhance grip. If you’re not into the grippy texture, the smooth-backed Spigen Thin Fit is also an excellent choice. The only downside is that these cases only come in black.

Crave Dual Guard

If you do like the grippy texture but want more color, this Galaxy A53 case from Crave is a great alternative. It isn’t quite as feature-packed as the Spigen option above, but overall it’s remarkably similar with a rubberized back and slightly thicker build than most thin cases. It even hits roughly the same price point. You can get this case in six attractive colors: black, slate, navy, red, blush, and forest green.

This brand-new design from Speck combines many of the excellent features of the options above. It doesn’t have a textured back, but the soft-touch antimicrobial finish still offers a solid grip and will prevent any accidental slips. Despite the relatively thin design, it’s rated for drops up to eight feet with two layers of built-in protection. Grab it from Speck’s official website in four color combinations at the link below.

Caseology Athlex

Spigen sub-brand Caseology is known for stylish designs, and the Athlex doesn’t disappoint. It has a unique finish on the back, with a built-in crevice that’s perfectly placed to assist your grip on the phone. There are also two more grips on the sides, so even one-handed users won’t need to worry about dropping the device. The color options are a bit limited with only two available, but the Active Green colorway above is quite eye-catching.

As far as clear cases for the Samsung Galaxy A53 go, you can’t do much better than the Spigen Ultra Hybrid. The build quality is excellent, and while it’s not the thinnest case it does afford above-average protection. There isn’t a lot of variety when it comes to clear cases, so save yourself the trouble of shopping around and just get this one. Trust us, you won’t regret the purchase.

Looking for something a bit more feminine? This faux-marble case for the Galaxy A53 might just do the trick. The beautiful design is sure to turn heads, and the built-in screen protector will keep your device safe for years to come. It’s a bit pricier than the options above, but it’s far more intricate than any of the other designs on the list.

Next up is something for outdoorsy types who need as much protection as possible. Supcase makes some of the best rugged cases on the market, and the Unicorn Beetle Pro is the top of the line. It features 20-foot drop protection, a built-in screen protector, a kickstand, and a detachable belt holster. If you can do without the screen protector and want to save a little money, the non-pro Unicorn Beetle case is also one of the best Samsung Galaxy A53 cases you can buy.

For more affordable (and less bulky) protection, Spigen makes a pair of cases that have a lot to offer. First up is the Tough Armor, which features military-grade protection and a built-in, if a bit flimsy, kickstand. It comes in two colors, black and slate, and as far as rugged cases go it isn’t overly bulky. For even less bulk, the Spigen Rugged Armor is a great choice. It drops the kickstand and extra protection to provide a more streamlined case design. It won’t offer the same level of protection, but it’s one of the cheapest cases you can buy for the Galaxy A53.

Our last pick comes from yet another brand known for protective cases, Poetic. The Poetic Guardian offers many of the same features as other protective cases, but with a transparent backing. The screen protector frame comes in a few color options, too, although you also have the option to use the case without the included protector module. Poetic also sells a model with a kickstand called the Poetic Revolution, as well as a slimmer (but still protective) design called the Poetic Neon. All three are excellent options if you don’t mind a little extra bulk.
