Spigen Tough Armor is another rugged option, also close to $20. I'm currently sporting the Unicorn Beetle Pro. It looks big and rugged but doesn't add nearly as much bulk as it looks like in the photos and the buttons are a breeze to press.
If you want sleeker, the Neo Hybrid is a good option too.
No matter what, you'll want a case that protects the screen by having a "lip" on the top and bottom
I just picked up this one today, and it looks fantastic. I also have the Zagg Sapphire screen protector on, so I'd say it's quite well protected.

I've had many drops with this case, including a drop from around 300ft (onto grass).

The Spigen Neo Hybrid isn't any good. It's very flexible and as a result if you were to drop this thing and it landed even partially face down, the case couldn't prevent the screen from coming into contact with the ground - you'd have a shattered screen. The material is also very slippery. The plastic is so thin that it's very flexible. This case doesn't provide any sense of security with the phone.
Might I make a suggesting then, do something like the frame work for the spigen hybrid cases?

Any recommendations? I've been looking at this one https://www.amazon.com/Spigen-Liquid-Galaxy-Durable-Samsung/dp/B06XP87DGC/ but I'm worried the buttons aren't completely covered, it looks weird in the images, like there is some gaps in between. If not that, maybe https://www.amazon.com/Spigen-Herringbone-Flexible-Protection-Reinforced/dp/B06XP521V1/ but it looks like the sides are metallic, and I wouldn't really like that.
> Can someone recommend a tpu case thats won't slide out of my hands, even without the cutouts? I find the matte ones are always too smooth and slippery.
I can recommend the Spigen Neo Hybrid though I'm not sure if you'll find it too slippery or not. It does have a bit of a matte back but I don't find it slippery.
> If I use an adapter, will all of my quick charge 2 power banks and chargers still charge at quick charge 2 speeds?
A slight aside, but in addition to QC2 (and QC3 and 4 as they are backward compatible), the S8/S8+ will also fast charge with chargers that provide 3A over USB-C (will usually be USB-PD/Power Delivery chargers although I don't think the S8/S8+ actually supports USB-PD itself, just the 5V @ 3A that the USB Type C standard allows for). Both QC (9V @ 1.67A) and USB-C (5V @ 3A) will charge equally fast (15W) when the chargers support either of those.
Its very comfortable to hold. Here is what it looks like.

I have this one Samsung Galaxy S8 Case, Spigen® [Neo Hybrid] [Sturdy Protection] Galaxy S8 Case Cover with Flexible Inner Protection and Reinforced Hard Bumper Frame for Galaxy S8 (2017) - Gunmetal- 565CS21594 https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B06XP521V1/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_wnyZBb58NQ4ZW
It has little lips at the top and bottom, so if it drops face down it saves the screen.
Spigen Ultra Thin is the case I went with for my S8. I just got it in the mail a day ago. It doesn't seem the best for drops, but it's sturdy enough without gutting the amazing design of the S8.
If you're looking for something where drop protection is a bigger priority you could maybe go with the Spigen Neo Hybrid which looks to be a tad bit sturdier. There are bulkier cases, but I can't stand much more bulk that these two cases outside of maybe a Rhinoshield bumper.
