Key Compatibility Checks
- Camera cutout: Galaxy S25 Ultra has a large camera island — ensure the case has a precise cutout with no blockage
- Charging port: USB-C cutout must be wide enough for thick cables
- Wireless charging: Most TPU/hard cases don't block wireless charging; metal cases do
- Fingerprint sensor: Avoid cases that cover the under-display area
- S Pen access (S25 Ultra): Must have S Pen slot cutout

Look for cases with MIL-STD-810G/H certification — these are tested for drops from 4–6 feet onto concrete.
