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.
Samsung Kindsuit Case
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.

Samsung 45W PD Power Adapter
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.
Galaxy S25 Anti-Reflecting Film
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.
