Samsung has finally unveiled the Galaxy S9 and S9+ smartphones, but while they don't represent a huge change in design over their S8 predecessors, that means they're still gorgeous devices that you definitely won't want to break.

The Infinity Displays are still some of the best looking in the business, with their 18.5:9 ratios and curvaceous edges and the back panels are as head-turning as ever.

Of course, it's a shame to cover up such beauty, but we're sure you'd rather keep your Galaxy S9 or S9+ in pristine condition, rather than have it scratched by your keys, or worse, dropped and smashed. We've therefore rounded up some of the best cases already available to keep your Galaxy S9 and S9+ looking its best.

Samsung

Clear View Standing Cover

The Clear View Standing Cover offers all round protection for the Galaxy S9 and S9+. The front cover shows you quick information at a glance, such as time, date and battery level. It can also show you who is calling and allows you to answer or reject a call without having to open the case at all. Flip the case open and it doubles up as a stand too.
