I am looking to buy a case for my Samsung Galaxy S10e and want to know the best kind of case to get. It is an expensive phone which is encased in glass, which means it is easily susceptible to cracking around the entire phone.

I know that just because a case is more expensive doesn't mean it is the best protection - so what is the best case that will protect the entire phone?

Is a case that has a built-in screen protector actually protect the screen better?

With Amazon Prime Day being tomorrow, a few I'm looking at are linked below:

I guess I should add, Samsung has a sale on these phones (and the S8 and S9) going on right now. The S10e is $550 right now (for the unlocked version).

S10e - $549.99 for the 256 GB

S9 - $449.99

S8 - $349.99

Last 3 look to be pretty much the same thing and should protect the phone better than the first.

Built in screen cover is OK and in theory would be better, but I know from my kids experience that a case will only protect it from some things. Both my kids managed to crack their phones several times in cases.

Thank you for your suggestions and help, I have decided to go with:

SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Pro

Olixar Samsung Galaxy S10e Screen Protector [Tempered Glass]
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07N44V2TC/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I was going to go with a more expensive case, but this one has really good reviews. I will probably cut out the screen protector that comes with the case and use the Tempered Glass instead.
