Spigen Optik Armor Case for Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra - Black

Choosing a case for a top-tier phone like the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is a balance between protection, style, and functionality. With its advanced camera system being one of its most critical features, providing extra security for the lenses is paramount. Spigen's Optik Armor case is designed specifically for this purpose, integrating a unique camera cover into a rugged, stylish chassis. But does this specialized design deliver in everyday use for a low pricepoint? I snapped it onto my S25 Ultra to find out. Design, Build, and Grip The first thing you notice about the Optik Armor case is how solid it feels. It’s constructed from a tough, flexible TPU with a textured pattern that not only looks great in the Abyss Green color but also provides an excellent grip. This case inspires confidence; it feels substantial enough to protect against serious drops, yet it doesn’t add excessive bulk. The buttons are tactile and responsive, and the cutouts are precise, as you’d expect from Spigen. The added texture on the sides is a thoughtful touch, ensuring the phone feels secure in your hand and less likely to slip. The Star Feature: The Slide-to-Protect Camera Cover The main event here is, without a doubt, the integrated camera cover. It’s a simple but brilliant mechanism: a solid panel that slides smoothly over the entire camera module, clicking securely into place. When you need to take a photo, you just slide it open. This feature is an incredible bonus for a few key reasons. Firstly, it offers unmatched protection against scratches, dust, and direct impacts to the lenses—something standard cases can't do. Secondly, it provides complete privacy, ensuring your camera is only active when you want it to be. The cover is easy to operate with one hand and feels durable enough to withstand constant use. It’s a game-changing feature for anyone who prioritizes the longevity and integrity of their phone's camera. The Verdict The Spigen Optik Armor for the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is more than just a protective case; it's a complete security system for your phone's most valuable asset. The build is solid, the grip is fantastic, and it provides a high level of drop protection. But it's the innovative and well-executed sliding camera cover that makes it a must-have. It’s an elegant solution to a real-world problem. If you want the ultimate peace of mind for your S25 Ultra's camera without compromising on style or functionality, the Optik Armor is the perfect choice.

Excellent build quality and fit, buttons feel tactile, protects cameras, has horizontal kick stand too, all cutouts for charging port mic s pen etc great not too small so can fit charge cables with ease. Only downside a little bulky and heavy and adds a lot of weight to already a heavy S24 Ultra, but hey I've already dropped the phone on concrete and the case has done its job not a scratch on the phone or case, overall excellent case

Appears to offer very good protection both to the lens and camera body, I've had no problems closing or opening the lens cover unlike some apparently have. Overall I'm very happy with this case and would have no hesitation in recommending it.

I always use optik armour as I like the fact that the cameras are protected and hidden. the screen is amply protected due to the lip of the case. Great fit and value for money as always. Deducted a start because the areas where the spen is isn't fully covered and I am concerned that if I drop my phone on the edge with the spen then it might crack. Other than that its an amazing case. Already dropped my phone 4/5 times and nothing has happened to it.

I love this spigen product and had another version for my last phone. Keeps camera protected but easy to slide open to use. Didnt break with last phone and quality good on this one - dropped my phones a few times with no issues. Enough space in back to slide a card under which I use for a gym member card. No issues bending back to get card in and out.

Good cover but the camera cover feels a bit flimsy and cheap compared to similar covers / brands. Would defs recommend the Spigen Tough Armour covers over this.

I'm a big fan of Spigen cases and they have protected my devices well for many years now and this case has certainly done its job. The case fits well and is ease to fit and remove and alligns well with my screen protector. It a not bulky .The buttons function perfectly and are stiff enough to prevent most accidental presses but still give an comfortable satisfying click. The flared protection to the camera lenses is both a good feature and equally its biggest drawback. The protruding nature of this lense protection can cause difficulties when wireless charging. The protrusion can prevent it aligning on the charger and can also catch on things inadvertently. It has been at times a bit fiddly to uncover the cameras. I can understand that you wouldn't want the slide to move while in a bag or pocket and there is little risk of that happening. However if you try to catch the perfect moment in a hurry it can take a couple of seconds too long to make the camera ready. My lense cover has started to deteriorate after 18 months of daily use and pieces have broken off you can see in the picture so im now looking for a new case but may yet buy this one again. All in all if you want a case that protects your phone and those delicate lenses you cant go wrong here, the cover is a little more fragile than I'd usually expect from Spigen but rather the case than the phone. This case definitely good value for money and I would buy it again.

Spigen generally make nice cases, I have owned quite a few over the years and this is no exception. The material feels quality and it fits nice and snug without being too hard to fit over the phone. My phone was fitted with a "IMBZBK" tempered glass screen protector measuring 74.5mm x 160mm and the case fitted fine leaving a gap of approx 0.5mm around the edge of the screen protector. I tried taking the case off and refitting it around 5 times to see if it dislodged the tempered glass screen protector in the process, it didn't! The sides of the case had a nice texture in the material as did the back and overall it felt good in the hand. The phone buttons were easy to press and felt good to press. I tried charging the phone wirelessly with the case on using quite an old QI tabletop wireless charging disc (not magsafe) and it charged fine. There is a nice bumper around the front edge for screen protection that allows the phone to be placed on a table face down without the screen coming into contact with the cable. The case weighs 51g and does not add greatly to the bulk of the phone. But there is a downside to the case and it is the camera cover. I like to protect my phone camera lenses but I don't trust the flap alone. Sure it is better than nothing, but there are two issues: Phone cases collect dust and grit over time and should any grit get behind the flap it could scratch the lens; If the phone is dropped with the camera cover off, the lenses could still get damaged. To get around this I like to fit tempered glass lens filters. I use ORZERO which are very low profile and only 0.71" in diameter. When these are fitted, although the case itself fits nicely with the screen protectors in place, the camera slider will not slide over the lens protector. If you can live with the camera slider points above, this is a nice case.

Excellente coque qui se marie très bien avec mon Samsung S24 Ultra. Le cache permettant de couvrir l'appareil photo à l'arrière fonctionne très bien. Cela fait plusieurs mois que je l'utilise : Rien n'a bougé !
