The best Samsung accessories for your new Galaxy S25

You’ve unboxed your shiny new Galaxy S25 and probably spent a good chunk of Christmas Day poking around the settings. Now comes the fun part: figuring out which accessories are actually worth adding to the mix. The manufacturer has a ton of options for you to choose from, but some are better than others. These are the best Samsung accessories to pair with your new Galaxy S25 device while you’re still in the honeymoon phase.

One of the first things you’ll probably want to do with a brand-new Galaxy S25 is put some protection on it before the inevitable first fumble. Samsung’s Kindsuit case is a good option if you don’t want to start that relationship with a bulky or cheap-looking shell. It features a faux-leather finish that feels more premium than most cases, accompanied by a soft inner lining to help prevent scuffs on the phone itself. As we noted on our list of the best Galaxy S25 Ultra cases, it won’t age as gracefully as TPU or silicone. Still, as a slim, good-looking starter case, it fits the moment well — particularly at the current $38.49 price rather than its usual $54.99.

Once the initial setup is done, the next reality check usually comes when you realize how slowly your old charger tops up a new phone. If you’ve picked up a Galaxy S25 Plus or S25 Ultra, Samsung’s 45W power adapter is the simplest of Samsung accessories to ensure you’re actually getting the fastest wired charging that those phones support. It comes bundled with a 5A USB-C cable, adjusts its output based on the device you plug in, and works just as well for tablets or laptops that charge over USB-C. At its usual $49.99, it feels pricey for a wall plug, but the current $34.99 price makes it a sensible upgrade if you didn’t already have a compatible fast charger lying around.

Right after slapping on a case, the next question is usually what to do about the display. Samsung’s anti-reflecting film is a more low-profile alternative to a thick tempered glass screen protector. It’s designed to cut down glare in bright light while also helping with fingerprints and everyday dust, without changing how the screen feels too much under your thumb. You’re not getting serious impact protection here, but for keeping a brand-new Galaxy S25 screen clean and readable, it does the job well. At $17.49 instead of $24.99, it’s an easy add-on during that first setup spree.

The button below takes you to the film for the S25, but you can find the same accessory for the S25 Plus, the S25 Ultra, and the S25 FE via these links when it’s in stock.

For those heading back to work or spending a lot of time driving after the holiday break, a car charger quickly becomes one of those must-have Samsung accessories. Samsung’s Car Wireless Charger brings Qi 2.0 fast charging to your dashboard, with a strong magnetic mount that keeps your Galaxy S25 steady, even over bumps and sharp turns. It also offers full 360-degree rotation, so you can position your phone for navigation without taking your eyes off the road for long. Just note that you’ll need a Qi2-certified magnetic case to get the most out of it, as the Galaxy S25 phones don’t have magnets built in. 

Magnetic accessories are the big thing for the S25 series, and if you don’t want to hide the look of your new phone, the Clear Magnet Case is an obvious alternative to something like the Kindsuit. It’s slim, transparent, and designed to resist yellowing over time, so you can still show off Samsung’s colors rather than hiding them under a solid shell. More importantly, it adds the magnets that the Galaxy S25 itself lacks, letting you use Qi2 chargers and other magnetic accessories without workarounds. Protection is fairly light, but as a clean, practical case that unlocks the magnetic ecosystem we’ve already touched on, it makes a lot of sense.

A new phone is often a good excuse to get a bit more organised, and the Galaxy SmartTag 2 fits neatly into that mindset. It’s designed to work through the SmartThings Find network, letting you keep tabs on everyday items like keys, bags, or luggage. The redesigned tag is IP67-rated, has a built-in attachment point, and runs for up to 500 days on a replaceable battery, with a power-saving mode that can stretch things even further. If you have a compatible Galaxy S25 model, you can also use precision finding with on-screen directions when something’s nearby, and it’s essentially the best Bluetooth tracker you can buy. 

Big, bright displays and lots of setup tinkering can chew through a battery faster than expected. Samsung’s 25W 10,000mAh wireless battery pack is a handy safety net for those moments when you’re away from a wall socket. It supports wireless charging up to 15W for quick top-ups, or faster 25W charging over USB-C when you really need to move things along. You can also charge multiple devices at once, which makes it useful for travel days or long commutes. It’s not the slimmest power bank around, but as one of the official Samsung accessories that plays nicely with the Galaxy S25 lineup, it’s a practical thing to throw in a bag and forget about until you need it.
