My Samsung Galaxy S5 is in route to me, and I’m a bit excited. I’m excited that Element Case is rolling out an entire line of cases for the Galaxy S5, AND they will work with existing mounts. Called the Recon, the cases are currently available for preorder; we’ve got a sneak peek at what is on the way.
There are four different cases in the Element Case Recon lineup. Each offers great style, excellent protection and that bit of Element Case magic that makes each of the company’s cases so unique. In addition, the new line of cases will also work with the Element Case mounting accessories. (Stay tuned as I am currently reviewing them.) That means one set of mounting accessories will work for both iPhones and Samsung Galaxy S5 devices. That will come in handy if you are part of a mixed marriage in which one of you has an iPhone and the other prefers the Galaxy S5. This sort of ubiquitous accessory compatibility is going to be more and more important as smartphone accessory market becomes increasingly competitive. Here’s a rundown of all four of the new lines of element case Samsung Galaxy S5 accessories.

I love the Chroma for iPhone 5S and the Recon Chroma edition for Galaxy S5 looks great too.

A rugged impact resistant TPU polymer chassis is paired with a tough polycarbonate back plate to keep your S5 safe.
