Mines Blue.

They work GREAT. I dropped my Pixel all the time and never had any damage...the sides in the pixel seemed loose to me at first, you could pull on the sides and they would pull away, king of like a rubber band that wasn't too tight or loose. But I git used to that real quick and loved the way it performs . It protects against drops and feels like nothing is on the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] xile6:
Yea the blue has been back order.

I preorder my black one and then order my wife a blue one a week later (was still before launch day) been having my black for a whilenow while her blue has just move
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] dragunbayne:
The one I ordered is black. It started moving last night and should show up Monday. [emoji1]
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] shadowdudez2:
Anyone know similar cases to this one that i can buy here in Canada? Reading all the comments, doesn't seem like i want to order from them directly, would rather pick up from a mobile store or mall.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] tiny70thomas:
There are none similar. Do it some reason these case companies don't want to make the easiest one in the world to make
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] rjwdon:
have the same issues reported as most other people here, it really is a little too loose. Its not too bad, but occasionally you grab your phone and feel the case squeeze in, its not the best feeling. Also on S8+.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] vwite:
The one I received for the s8+ is exactly like this, earlier today I was thinking exactly the same "like a rubber band"
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] dragunbayne:
Same here. Mine came in today. I like it overall, but it is a little loose on the sides. Top and bottom fit like a glove. I'm wondering if over time it will form to fit a little better. It is a really nice bumper though. I did have to remove the front bezel skins to use it also, it pushed those right up. It covers and holds the edges of the back skin down great.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] tiny70thomas:
This is my third and they have all been exactly like this. Believe me I would live to find fault with them as I think there pre order and customer service is horrible, but it's the same fit as my others. The first one I had, it bothered me at first, but I git used to it and I live the damn thing now. I imagine to get the drop rating they want it can't be too tight. The bumper looks great and works great. I live these bumpers, just wish someone else made them
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] xile6:
Yea, i wish they had other colors. The iphone is swiming in colors.

And i have always like bumpers but i had metal ones and they dont protect the phone from drops just corner nicks.

But the rhinioshield does a great job overall
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] tiny70thomas:
BEST bumper I EVER EVER had was the one for the Nexus 4, the one that was all glass. The Best Nexus phone I ever had, and STILL one of my top 5. Loved the phone, Loved the Bumper

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] mahdibassam:
I received mine today and it is a F'ing joke. it is loose around the edges. like a cheap 2$ bumper. im returning this **** for a refund.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] tiny70thomas:
You guys must have got a different one than me, sure you can pull out the sides, but not too much. It can't be stiff using the material it's made of. Looks good on my phone, fits snug, and more importantly oritects it from drops and adds hardly any mass
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] indexmonkey:
I have always like a "Spigen" case, and for s8+ the neo hybrid. I also have the "Scottii" Tactical Titan Bumper Dual Layer case. Both fit really well.

But the 15ft drop tests and the slim feel of a bumper brought me to Rhinoshield. It was a tad loose for me too, so I cut out and attached two narrow strips of double sided tape to the side/back to hold the bumper in place . Now it's rock solid like I had expected. That said I shouldn't have to use tape on a premo £23 bumper case !!

I think the length of s8+ may be an issue, plus the other two cases have a back to keep tension on the sides. On the s8 the rhino was good (maybe not excellent though) out the box without tape.

I may well have altered it's drop capabilities by removing the slack in the sides, but I doubt it, as the top and bottom are real solid either way. Agree buttons are a tiny bit stiff when new. I wanted to go naked, but know I will drop her sooner or later =/

I absolutely love this phone with a bumper set up like this, feels sturdy, protected and super slim all at the same time. It's as close to naked as I dare =)

If my actions have any effect on crash guard ability I *will* post back. A part of me wants to drop test it :silly: however the sane part of me is in charge at the moment ! :highfive:
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] lmanlo:
For those that Order the RhinoShield, they are releasing an update. They say it fits better and has heard customers complaints of the flimsy sides.

Here's the email received:
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] shorty_blitz:
Hey, thanks for the heads-up I was literally going to post asking if anyone had any info on this updated version that was going to come out.

I didn't expect them to release the updated version so soon, have you or anyone you know received the revised version of the bumper to review?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] lmanlo:
No, don't know if the new version has been send out before the announcement or if they are just sending it out to customers. Just received the email. Send them a reply but haven't yet heard anything.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] GTCC:
Has there been any update on the revised bumper? I bought one two weeks ago from Amazon UK for my S8 plus and the sides were very loose compared to the one I have on my iPhone 7 plus.

Also the S8 one added very little bulk compared to the iPhone one.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] sweetboy02125:
No. This bumper case is so ugly
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] abdullaha:
I've heard about the RhinoShield CrashGuard Bumper Cases. Apparently, they can withstand 11ft drops on concrete. Has anyone had any experience with them in the past? Do they hold up? I am deathly afraid of cracking my S8 Plus but also find the idea of covering up my GORGEOUS phone with a case to be stupid. Thoughts?

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] Bxrider117:
I had this for my S6 and my Pixel. It is a great bumper case. I liked it more, as das as comfort on my s6 than the Pixel.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] abdullaha:
Do you recommend it for a balance of protection and minimalism?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] Bxrider117:
I do. When I had it in my s6 I put a slick wrap skin on the back and a tempered glass on th the front.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] allklrnoflr:
I had one on my Note 5 with a Dbrand skin, they didn't make one for the S7 Edge or a Note 7. I pre-ordered and it's supposed to ship next week. Only downside I had is it takes a while for the buttons to break in because they are a little stiff.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] mklpickle:
I had/have on my s7. I also have the back and front protection. My s7 is still in perfect condition. it's taken a few normal drops and handled them with ease. I pre-ordered for my s8. I totally trust it and love the minimalist look with awesome protection. I even put one on my daughter's iphone 7. Flawless performance. I do change up cases occasionally, but always come back to my Rhinoshield band.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] Amjad.AbdulGhani:
Am more interested in the screen protector from Rhino, and wondering if any tried it.. They were the only company that made full adhesive screen protector (glass) for pixel xl.. So wondering how will this end up to be.. No mention in the website if the screen protector is full adhesive or not.. I guess i will have to wait and see when i receive it..
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] androidbuff123:
My only issue with the rhinoshield bumpers in the past is that it adds too much extra width (it has to I guess to provide the protection it does).
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] deeje00:
Too much extra width? It's like a a mm or 2. I loved it on my s7. Survived some nasty drops. I don't know about this one with the more curved edges though. I got a spigen neo hybrid.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] galaxys:
Really liked it on my Nexus 6! Was bummed they didn't make it for my Nexus 6P...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] Esakama:
I ordered mine last week, it has been shipped today.

I also ordered a back black mate skin from dBrand.

I will post some pictures once everything arrive.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] snick8467:
after reading this thread i went looking for vids... found one for the S6... amusing and durable...so i ordered for the s8.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DvhljsZY88 <--vid in case anyone wants to see. (i'm not associated..just impressed.)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] likepeas:
Ordered. This bumper has been saving my gfs ip7+ on many occasions

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] MyanRagahis:
Ordered one as well. Have the UAG Pathfinder and love it but super impressed by all the demo videos for the RhinoShield.

The bumper has arrived but I'm waiting for the dBrand to post some pictures ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] jucytec:
Just post it and update
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] SeanForester:
IMO, I'm always a fan of cases that keep the thinness of the phone but at the same time protect them. My only worry with this is the screen and the rear. I know you can get tempered glass and the back is somewhat protected but i'd still be worried.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] r34p3rex:
What? Yes they do. I had one lol
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] jongcruz:
This should answer all your questions :

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] MyanRagahis:
Anyone else get their case yet? Just put mine on along with their screen protector (which by the way I'm having to press down harder to register a touch in some areas. I'll probably be returning it if I can). I'm gonna give the case some time but the sides seem flimsy for me. Maybe I'll get used to it. It's not super loose but not super snug either. I can easily wiggle the longer sides away from the phone. The corners are excellent and hold the phone in place though. After seeing that video it's given me confidence in protection as well.

Edit: Found a user on reddit with a similar problem.

This was their photo: https://imgur.com/a/13Hpb

Mine doesn't seem as loose as that one though.

Their quote:

"OP here, just want to clarify that I have nothing to do with the video or Rhinoshield, I just thought it was a cool video. In fact, I'm in the process of returning my Rhinoshield because it fits like ****. The S8 might be ok from what I've heard, but it's very loose on the sides of the S8+. According to Rhinoshield's "engineers", this is normal."

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] tkoreaper:
I've owned the CrashGuard for 2 phones and for both of them I only used it for a little while before switching to another case. All of them had the issue shown above where a gap can easily be formed allowing all sorts of dust can grime to get in there and move around. At the end of the day they will protect your phone on flat ground, but all it takes is that one time where the ground isn't flat or there's a rock/pebble on the ground and you're screwed. I honestly don't know why people go crazy over these all the time. I personally used to be a UAG guy until they didn't make them for a few of my phones so I switched to Supcase's Unicorn Beetle Hybrid cases and never went back... I've never had a complaint about them and the bulk it adds is almost unnoticeable.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] Esakama:
Hi everyone,

I received my dBrand skin yesterday. I put the skin on today with the Rhinoshield bumper.

dBrand skin feedback:

Not as easy to set up as advertised

Not as precise as advertised (though it fits very well)

Nice feeling

Rhinoshield bumper feedback:

Nice feeling

Slight (and borring) bowing on buttons area

Not compatible with Anker Powerline+ (hole is too tight)

Damaged the bottom of the dBrand skin

---------- Post added at 06:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:35 PM ----------

By the way, if you Google "dBrand rhinoshield", you will find several feedbacks explaining similar issues...

I contacted Rhinoshield and shared my feedback with them to know if my bumper is defective or not, and to get the opinion on the skin damage ("We have tested one of the most popular skin brand, DBrand, and we can confirm 100% compatibility between Dbrand and Rhino Shield") and the cable compatibility issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] snick8467:
Tracking on mine updated. I should receive it tomorrow
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] allklrnoflr:
Mine was to loose on the sides and the buttons are really stiff. If the sides weren't so flimsy I would work on the buttons, going to return this one.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] snick8467:
OK mine arrived today. It seems to fit very well I love that it keeps the phone so slim .The sides do move If you push on them front to back . I don't think it will be a problem in use though. If the hits are mostly direct I believe it'll be just f ine.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] dragunbayne:
I only had a problem with the front bezel skins. If anything my bumper covers the edges and holds down my back skin. Did you put it on by placing the bottom of the phone in then pressing the top in like it shows on the packaging?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] Esakama:
Yes, put it as described in their tutorial.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] dragunbayne:
Ah ok. I figured I had to ask, you know how it goes on the internet. That's really odd that it did that to yours.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] km8j:
Can anyone compare the overall added width of the bumper vs common cases like a ringke fusion?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] rgs2:
Good question. I'd like to see that comparison too and also with the Spigen Ultra Hybrid.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] Greg2Lu:
Hello, it is a S8 or a S8+ by any chance ? Because on the S8+ it seems to be common, but if it's happen on the S8 too it's too bad :(

Thanks !
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] kurtslashmx:
Love it. I hate cases bit this bumper has it all. Protection and design. This is the only bumper/case I Will use. It does not modify the awsome look of the s8
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] km8j:
Is it right that this thing adds like 4mm all around? Measurements from their site Samsung Galaxy S8:
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] Esakama:
Hi,

I have a Galaxy S8. Measures with the bumper:

* Witdh = 15,6cm

* Height = 7,5cm

The bowing effect is less noticeable. I'm waiting for a replacement part, hope it will resolve my skin issue.

E.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] dragunbayne:
The sides do seem to get better with time. I hope your replacement works well with your skin. Mine is still great, it does really well covering the edges and preventing lift.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] bvvb:
Well I don't know if it was really back luck but I broke my S8+ with the crashguard bumper while trying to getting it out of my jeans pocket, the top part of the bumper got stock pulling the phone out of my hand and fell on the floor screen facing down, now there is a lot of dead pixels and brack lines on the screen :/
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] eep2378:
I received this Bumper a few days ago. While the fit around the top and bottom is good, like most people had commented the sides kinda bow out and make it difficult to push the buttons. I emailed there support and was advised to take the case off and to press with fingernail on each button 10 times or so to loosen the button. Unfortunately, this did not help and I'm sending it back. With the sides bowing up it makes the device feel too "wide".

Its too bad, because its well constructed and pretty sturdy. I was using it with a stickerboy skin without issue. Now I'm just going with full skin with screen protector.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] chungdae:
I decided to return the rhino shield. I had it for the S7 and it was the perfect case. However with the S8 it's so flimsy and just doesn't fit correctly. The top and bottom fit great but the sides do not. When you use the phone and hold the sides the sides flex up or down causing a misalignment and comfortable grip. The buttons also are hard to push
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] dukedoom:
Here's a video of a guy dropping an S8 with no screen protection using the Rhinoshield:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCHRKdMEoF0

It also looks really easy to fit. Honestly I don't see the complains on this thread. Some guy even claimed that his phone bend a bit when removing the thing wtf. On the video he removes it pretty fast and easy. Also the protection is insane, that's 15 feet and no screen protector. So you should be pretty safe on the city from normal drops from your hand type of height. Of course if you go into some rocky surface you need something more but I don't have going to the mountain in my plan anytime soon so this seems enough.

Some people complain about the lateral buttons becoming more stiff... not a problem for me. Im not going to constantly be changing the volume and I don't use the home button at all because unblock the phone with the frontal fingerprint button (I have an S7... a reason why I will not buy the S8)

I have searched for alternatives that don't ruin the back of the phone by covering it, but after reviewing all these transparent Spigen etc cases, people always say after a couple of months they turn yellow.

If you have better alternatives then let me know.

How to prevent issues on your newly rhinoshield?

1) Buy your rhinoshield.

1a) Screen protector/Tempered Glass/Skin (Optional)

2) Follow the instructions on installing it in ur s8

3) Download VolumeSlider.

4) Download SoftKey Edge for your Edge panel.

Objectives:

Rarely press the volume rocker. Instead, you'll slide your fingers on screen to rock your volume thru VolumeSlider.

Rarely press your Power button. Instead you'll slide your finger on screen to lock your phone thru SoftKey Panel from Edge Panel.

To prevent Dbrand from peeling off:

You must follow the instructions on rhinoshield.

And i recommend you go to someone professional to install ur dbrand or skin.

Rhinoshield will get you last longer if you follow this instructions. ???

(PAALAGA!)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] ShannonPricePhoto:
I had one on my note 5 and loved it. I promptly ordered one for my 8+. It was HORRIBLE! The power and volume buttons are sooooo stiff you almost have to use a do get nail to press in. I realllllly wanted to like this but was unusable. I ended up with a neo hybrid. Works perfectly.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] guaneet:
They revised the case, you can email them on the process of exchanging for version 2 I believe
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] ShannonPricePhoto:
Well I cut the power button out so I could at least use it. I'll see what they say.

I hve the updated version and it saved my phone a lot of times.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] Draegloth:
Thanks for the recommendation of SUPcase! :good::victory: I've already ordered one.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] tkoreaper:
You're welcome! You won't be disappointed. To me, Supcase has a perfect balance of protection, style, and affordability. You simply can't go wrong getting one, but if they ever don't make a case for a future phone I would recommend getting a similar case from Incipio. They're a little pricier, but not as much as UAG and they offer similar styles with great quality.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] ZetanBloodline:
I've just bought one of these cases and it's good, albiet with a few issued. It's damaged the skin I've applied to the back of the phone and I can't seem to find a decent screen protector for it.

Not really willing to pay £40 for a Whitestone protector.

One thing I do have in mind is modifying the flip case I also bought to take the Crashguard and make it so that the phone and bumper is easily removed.

Not a big fan of flip cases, but they do provide good coverage and protection and often have a stand.

So, what I want is the crashguard in a flip case that's easily removed. It's pretty simple I think, but I want an elegant solution.

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] Wouter15:
does someone also has the problem that the corners doesn't seem to be at the same height? it's just a little bit difference, but it's very annoying when the phone vibrates (really weird sound) and sometimes when tapping the phone when it is on a surface
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] RollTribe28:
I have it for my note 8 with the dbrand dragon skin and no screen protector without insurance. I know I'm living on the edge but I trust this bumper. I had it on my iPhone 6 plus and put that phone thru hell for 3 years and never had a problem.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mort:
Just in case you didn't notice: ;)

There are new betas for MortPlayer (3.31b69, also RC) and MortScript (4.11b2).

The new MortPlayer beta fixes a lot of bugs, only the phone call pause still seems to cause troubles on some devices. But I'm afraid there's no way to avoid that without causing troubles on other devices (buggy manufacturer implementations of a crappy MS concept...).

It also includes some new features, like more finger support (list scrolling, finger gestures for track/Favorite change) or defining the upcoming track (select track and tap "Next track:" info). Configuration has been made a bit more easy, too, esp. by a simplyfied Favorite configuration dialog. For Skins, there are some new options, like defining the height or a separating line for list entries or switching back to previous screen, which are also used in the new default skin (MortVista).

MortScript doesn't offer many changes so far, but some might still be interesting, e.g. a SendKeys that should work faster and more reliable, an Include command (include Subs defined in other files), or line number in error messages.

Oh, and since it seems so commonplace here to beg for donations - I won't deny them either... ;) (PayPal button below menu on my site..)
