Samsung has made the Galaxy S22 available in eight gorgeous color options, so it makes sense to get a case that's going to keep that color on display. The last thing you want to do is cover the soulful green back glass of your new Galaxy S22 with a black plastic case that makes it look like just any other phone. These clear cases are designed to protect your new phone from dents, scratches, and even cracks without muting the colorful creativity captured by Samsung's designers.

These are the best clear cases for the vibrant Galaxy S22

OTTERBOX Symmetry Clear Series Case

Trusted, low-profile protection

Otterbox is known for its high-quality protective cases. This case is thin with extra protection on the edges to keep your phone looking new. It's also available with a stardust or a floral design for a bit of flare. This is a great case if you need a bit of extra protection but don't want to make your phone too hefty. The edges are raised to protect the cameras and display.

TORRAS MoonClimber Case

Prop it up

Our phones have come to replace PCs and TVs for much of our media consumption. It's just as well that this hard clear case from Torras comes with a kickstand that works in portrait or landscape, so you can prop up your phone for streaming, watching podcasts, or even video conferencing. The edges are also raised around the cameras.

Spigen Ultra Hybrid - Frost Black

A darker color

Spigen's Ultra Hybrid case pairs flexible edges with a frosted hard back to give your phone a unique, darker look. The edges are rubbery to give your phone a little extra drop protection while the back has a dark tinted finish. This case is great if you're looking to make your brightly-colored S22 a bit darker. You get raised edges around the camera and display as well.

Spigen Crystal Slot case - Crystal Clear

All-in-one

If you're using Samsung Pay, you may find you don't really need your wallet much of the time. Even so, you might need to carry a single card, such as an ID to get into a building. The Crystal Slot gives you room for one card on the back of your phone so you can reduce what you carry to just your phone. This slim case is ideal for those who want a little extra protection without a lot of bulk.

Rayboen Soft Crystal Clear Case

Cheap protection

This thin case shows off the design of your Galaxy S22 with a clear plastic that's designed to prevent yellowing. This case has a little extra protection on the corners of the device to help against drops. Its price makes it easy to replace if you like to make sure your case stays as shiny as your phone. It's also easy to put and remove if you're the type who has multiple cases.

Torras Diamonds Clear Case

Simple and clean

This case features a hard plastic back with soft bumpers so you can easily put it on or remove it from your phone. The clear back helps the colors of your S22 shine through while the soft edges protect your phone from drops and dents. The corners are also designed with extra cushioning for small drops. Torras has also included an antioxidation layer to prevent yellowing.

Ghostek COVERT clear case

Clearly protective

The Ghostek COVERT case adds extra protection around the side of the phone as well as raised edges around the screen and cameras, to prevent shattering from a drop. You can get it completely translucent or with one of six other color accents around the edges. The edges also give you extra grip as well as impact protection, so you can avoid drops in the first place.

GOLDJU Waterproof Case with Built-in Screen Protector

Splash zone compatible

The GOLDJU Waterproof case has extra drop protection around the edges for impact protection, a built-in screen protector and of course, it can keep you phone nice and dry. While the Samsung Galaxy S22 has good water resistance, it's still not a good idea to take it in the pool or sea due to salt and chorine. This case allows you to keep your phone with you even when you go for a swim.

Coolwee Crystal Glitter Full Protective Case

Dressed up in diamond dust

Phone cases are about self expression and for some, that means glitter. This clear case from Coolwee not only lets you show off your phone's color but adds a bit of flare. The edges have some extra padding to protect your phone during side impacts, as well as raised edges to prevent damage on the screen or camera lenses, despite keeping a slim profile.

Show off your phone without giving up protection

To pick the right case for your gorgeous new Samsung Galaxy S22, you must balance protection, feel in the hand, as well as how it looks. Something as simple as a clear case can go a long way in preserving the look of your phone, whether you've gone with something colorful like the sky blue option or simple and sleek like graphite. It's also nice to get one that's not too difficult to remove, so if you also have one or more of the best thin cases, you can change with ease.

The Otterbox Symmetry strikes a good balance with good use of materials to make the phone easy to handle, while still providing good clarity to see through to the factory finish. The case is thin enough that your S22 still fits in your pocket, but it still provides solid protection from drops.

The Spigen Ultra Hybrid Frost Black case is a nice option that covers the edges with soft black plastic for protection with a frosted clear back. This gives your phone a more unique look without completely getting rid of your color. This case looks great with dark and light colors alike.
