Samsung has taken the wraps off the all-new Galaxy Note 9, 2018's final flagship from the company that packs the latest and greatest hardware into a slightly altered chassis. While the iterative update might not be as exciting as you'd expect, Samsung has introduced plenty of quality-of-life changes, along with major improvements to S-Pen functionality that make the Galaxy Note 9 a definite buy. Much like last year's Galaxy Note 8, the new Galaxy Note 9 has a glass sandwich design, with virtually the entire device made of glass, except for a narrow metal bezel that runs around the middle. Since the device is pretty much glass all over, it is quite susceptible to scratches and cracks, which is why all buyers must use a case to keep the device protected. So if you're planning to buy a Galaxy Note 9, here are the 12 best cases and skins you can buy with it to keep your device in top shape:

For starters, we have the Spigen Rugged Armor Case for the Galaxy Note 9 which is a low-profile case that offers plenty of protection without adding a ton of bulk to your device. The case offers a minimal design with carbon fiber and gloss details that add some style. Not only does the case protect your device from minor scrapes and scratches, its corners are locked with Spigen's Air Cushion Technology to protect your device from the occasional drop.

Since the Spigen Rugged Armor case has a fairly thin profile, it allows you to charge your Galaxy Note 9 wirelessly without having to remove the case every time. Spigen is known for its premium cases and this option is no different. Aside from its extra protective features, the case has precise cutouts for all ports and buttons, so it doesn't obstruct any device function during use.
