That is not OEM. Better to buy the interiorex or the SCF brands for real alcantara although interiorex are a bit thin ans not heavy duty protection.

---------- Post added at 02:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:41 PM ----------

None. Buy the interiorex or the SCF brands. Just search the net for them

Spigen has started putting a extra thick layer off paint on their Tough Armor cases which is why they tend to get scratched up pretty easily.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] pizza_pablo:
That seems counter intuitive, but it could explain why mine is holding up, better. Though it's not carried at much, it is older. Maybe the older design.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] iceepyon:
The Tough Armor case for my Note 4 seems to be holding up much better than that off my Note 8. Which is starting to peel off in someplaces.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] pizza_pablo:
Makes sense.

Just a little hint for people want flip cover. go for a vertikal flip cover

-best screen protection

-can be used in the car as nav without removing the cover icluding wireless charging

-best to be held when using it as a phone (i know only for us old people)

when plans to use it as a car bav while charging you MUST get a sturdy mount for your car wents. so you can use ur cars clima to cool it.

wireless charging while using gps in a phone case is to much without additional cooling

Well its 13 months later and my Speck Grip case came apart around the S-Pen hole. I bought it directly from Speck so took a picture and emailed them with the original purchase receipt. They sent me a new case which arrived today. I am very satisfied with their customer service and still like the case.

The Zagg Invisible Shield not so much. They keep cracking or coming off and its $10 each time for them to send me a new one so I gave up and currently have no screen protector. I have tried having them put on by the store from which I purchased it and self install but they still come loose and then crack.

Im really suprised by the quality of the Benks temperad glas protector. I always had the whitestone before but this one covers even more and is very cheap. :good:

Does this have a real, Full lip around the case? Where the screen won't be touched if you set it on an edge sideways?

I'm looking for a full lip around the phone, not just raised on the bottom and the top.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] jr866gooner:
Hello,

Yes I'd say it does. My spigen one you can clearly see it only top and bottom but it really does feel like the pela is an all round coverage lip.

There is a recess however at the spen entry.

My favourite part is the Bixby button recess so it defines which is the Bixby button.

Does anyone know of a TPU Sandstone feel case for our phones? Used to have a Nexus 5 and I loved my Diztronic case. Trying to find something similar. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] wildcard:
I really like the Spigen cases. I usually get the thin clear flexible ones. They are slim and offer good protection. However, the clear ones will yellow after about a year or so. Spigen warrantied them and sent me a black one as a replacement. They said it's normal for them to yellow. Probably all clear flexible cases have this problem. I like the Spigen ones and will keep going back to them.

Hi folks...

I got a original led view cover. I'm fine with it, but:

I want to get an app open (display on) while the cover is closed. Normally the display turns off, if cover is closed. Is there an app or something, to get forced display on while cover is closed? It's very important to get the app running with display on with closed cover...

Thank you very much.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] Jammol:
I don't know of an app but you could most likely disable that function by opening the case and trip the mechanism that tells the case the front cover is closed.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] Jammol:
Please make one that matches the colour of the device. Reason being, the main US device comes in only two beautiful colours. It would be great to continue the beautiful colour or as close as possible to it, through the case.

---------- Post added at 07:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:41 PM ----------

I really like these types of cases ever since I got the Pixel XL. Maintains the overall shape of the device. I just wish there was a fully clear one that'll show off the colours. I went with the purple device this time around because I had a feeling a lot of people would be grinding that blue. Yeah I like being a little different.

I really like RhinoShields CrashGuard bumper style case. Very minimalist, but offers excellent protection. I have one on my Note 8 and it has survived several drops (way too many, I need to be more careful) including once down a flight of stairs.

Of course a drop on a medium sized rock at the wrong angle could end up bad. But to environments I'm usually in (flats surfaces) it has performed well and looks and feel GREAT.

Hope the Note 9 version is available by the time the Note 9 starts shipping.

Drop videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_U51eQTQU3U

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-Qx8h9UiX4

Granted I wouldn't recommend that high of a drop with something as large as a Note, but still impressive.

Note 8 Otterboxes had some bad reviews here on XDA. I have personally given up on Ottberbox due to the recent poor quality and fit of the defender series.

I was really wanting a new Alcantara case for the 9 as well as a dbrand Grip, but it can't find either. Maybe the dbrand grip will fit my new 9 , as it is only the sides.

I used to always buy beefy cases, but I now prefer slim cases, and those that add a little bit of texture for handling. I have the Note 8 version of this case and it's the best case I have.

It believe it will go nicely with the blue Note9, and in my opinion, you can't beat it in price for quality. Can't wait for everything to come in!!

I want to get another leather case as well like the one I have for the 8, but I'll wait for some reviews first.

Anyone used original alcantara case ?

How is it?

I am getting one for cheap with 4 usd coupon on aliexpress.

Does it offer any protection?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] Isaac_T:
So I finally bought a note 9. I've been stuck on my note 4 because of 1: Can't switch batteries on new phones,

And nr. 2: they're all made of glass and one fall, the phone is broken!

So I finally have accepted in-built batteries and now I'm looking for a case that looks nice and can protect the phone from easy falls. On my note 4, I don't have any glass-protection and I use the original S-view cover. My screen looks perfect!

I'm planning to get the original clear view cover, is it good for protecting? I've also seen the LED flip cover, but I read that it doesn't protect that good,
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] RdT21:
The OEM clear case is not that good at providing top notch protection. Medium protection it might do well enough.

Buy those from spigen or ringke or even otterbox clear cases for really good protection imho.

Or you may try the dbrand skin for the back glass and pair that with rhinoshield crashguard bumper case that exposes the back for that minimal look but good protection as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] uchihakurtz:
Ringke Fusion X is probably the best case, solid, comfortable, clicky button, and really protects the phone. A Dbrand skin makes it even better.

Hey everyone, I'm buying a blue Note9 in March 2020 and am wondering if someone has this case on their blue phone? https://www.baseus.caseberry.in/product/baseus-shining-case-galaxy-note-9

I'm just curious for some real feedback like are the buttons clicked easily with the case on, does the s-pen detach easily, is there a watermark on it and so on. Also does the blue case look nice on the blue phone in real life? I'd be really grateful for replies as I don't have this case in a physical shop here and my only option is to order it online where I can't see it in person and test it on the phone before buying it. Merry Christmas btw :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] Limeybastard:
You got nice fresh battery in there. [emoji1787]
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] Isaac_T:
I bought the LED View Cover and I'm very satisfied with it. It looks good and it have really nice features. I will just be careful and not drop the phone.

I also bought the Whitestone Dome Glass Screen protector, but damnit! When I placed it on the screen, I got a small bubble in the middle. I tried to remove it with no success, so I tried to remove the whole screen protector and boom! It got broken into pieces.

Well, I went to a store and they will help me to place a new screen protector.

Can't decide between Spigen or Ringke...any thoughts on which is best?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] iggibar:
I skipped on the Spigen this time(have a few for my Note 8's) because I already received a cheap Note9 case to test on the cupholder fit and know that Spigen cases are a little thicker on the sides and don't fit in my E350's cup holders. The case I posted above came in today and fits perfectly in the cup holders. Best quality you could ask for.

I've never gotten a screen protector for any phone I've had, and I've never had a scratched screen other than a drop that shattered the OG Note I had. Are these really that important?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] danb1979:
For me they are yes, on a personal level

a) I've OCD and like things to be as pristine as possible; more so as a I'm a gadget whore, so tend to swap/sell quite regularly and don't want to run the risk of a scratched screen

b) I'm a competitive powerlifter, stone lifter and all out gym rat; I use chalk which makes my skin rough, more so on finger tips etc. Without a screen protector, I'll scratch the screen and that'd do my nut in (see point a) ) ;)

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] danb1979:
UAG cases are always expensive, so doubt you'll find it cheaper unless it crops up on Amazon

IMO they're really not all that the UAG cases and would rather spend half and get a decent Spigen case (unless it's specifically the colour you want from the UAG etc)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] bonerp:
I didn't use one on the Note 8 as I couldn't find a decent one and was actually spending a lot in trying to find one. In a year its got one light scratch on the screen. Adding a screen protector IMHO pretty much ruins the touch and clarity/quality of the screen. I'd rather take my chances.

I have one for the note 8 , original Samsung Alcantara, and I love it! Second only to the dbrand grip. It offers some protection, but not like a rugged case. Then again, it's a 1000 dollar phone, so must people are careful with it. I can seem to find an original Samsung Alcantara for the note 9 , or o would have ordered it already.

It is

Had it with my previous Note 8 and S8 Plus and zero issues; but then again I’m not a gamer or anything similar. Zero issues with screen touch sensitivity. However; I’ve slab like hands, so I’m naturally heavy handed ;)

I-Blason do one as well and will order that as it’s a bit more lightweight than the Supcase

---------- Post added at 04:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:47 PM ----------

Will do, when I get my Note 9 haha

However. Had these cases for a lot of phones and my current Pixel 2 XL and they’re great cases
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] roperband:
I think I'm leaning towards the UAG line. They seem to be the most durable without the screen protector, but of course the most expensive as well.

---------- Post added at 06:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:01 PM ----------

BTW, after doing some lurking on the Note 8 forum this case is said to have decently raised sides (as well as top and bottom) on the screen side to help prevent damage from falls to the front. I think I may try this case first.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] dazzer1975:
I have had a supcase uni beetle for a previous phone (without the built in screen protector) and really thought it was a very well made and protective case, I have been very tempted by this case but not knowing how the built in screen protector would work has put me off a bit (so many issues with finding good screen protection with these curved screens) but it's awesome it was fine on the note 8, think I might take the plunge...thanks mate

Received my Encased Rebel case today. Not too happy with it. It's all one piece now and doesn't seem like it would protect much in a fall.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] jcsww:
I have never owned a case like that but my mother tends to like them a lot. She always buys Otterbox cases though. The bulk alone along with the it being more difficult to use the edge stuff, like lighting for notifications. is what has made me weary of those types of cases. I am looking forward to your opinions on it.

You can always count on Floss to have some of the first opinions on anything from Tech21.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] danb1979:
I've always found the Supcase and I-Blason cases to be very protective, but more lightweight compared to the Otterbox, more so the defender series

Plus I've never thought they hindered the Edge part, but then again, I never really used the Edge functionality TBH
