Enter wallet cases, which provides you with a lot of functionality, plus protection as a bonus. Some of these cases even makes your smartphone look better than ever before. But, if you were looking for regular ol’ cases, we have a list for that too.
Protection is really important because the Samsung Galaxy S5 has a very flimsy back. Sure, the dotted pattern provides some amount of grip. But, in my opinion, that does not account for much. Let’s take a look at the 5 best wallet cases for the Samsung Galaxy S5.
