I did this. I've had the case for over 3 days now. And I thought I'd give some impressions behind what I've decided.

I do tend to prefer minimalistic cases. I don't drop my phone often if at all. My daily driver is uag plasma feather light case.

Please understand these are my personal views. and as such feel free to reply and give feedback.

1. It isn't as bulky as I'd have expected. Honestly. Considering the drop/rugged rating they claim it has, this is impressively small. I still worry if I drop my drop my phone on its back in the case. I feel that is concerning area.

2. Putting the phone in this case is super easy! And taking it out is the same. I'm amazed by how well that part of it works.

3. I do like the see through ability I'm the case. Haircut where you can see if it does get damaged or in my lucky case it doesn't get damaged.

4. For the price it is hard to beat. Especially when in comparison to OtterBox and such. Again, credit goes the designers and manufactures of this case.

5. It is still slick. I prefer cases that either give more grip, or make the phone easier to hold. The phone is large. And as such, I want something to make that easier. And not a pop socket or such.

Thanks for reading and considering.

I got a case and have used it for over 2 weeks now. It is sleek, well put together, and solid. It channels the sound perfectly and the clear back shows off the phone nicely. I think my only complaint is pocket lint getting behind the clear back causing me to remove the case for cleaning and I wish it had a kick stand. But as far as protection goes, this case has it covered.

hate to say it, i think i got scammed..

they told me to send a screen shot of the case in my amazon cart, and they would reimburse me...i did it....they told me i would get 24.01 in my paypal account... waited a few days and nothing...e-mailed they told me it was on the way...i had other things to order so i ordered the case...a month later i still haven't seen anything in my paypal account...They asked me to send a request..i did, even sent a reminder...still nothing...

I would NOT purchase anything from these folks...how will they respond to an issue after the sale?

**I realize i took a chance in ordering before i got the money, that's on me....but they told me, multiple times, that i would be getting the money.

The worst part is they are "supposed" to be giving some money from each sale to "Cancer" research...which, since i am 2yrs in remission, i really liked...but now i question if they are really doing that....

This advertisment topic is pure segregation and it is not fair for nonUSA forum users because it is restricted ONLY for US market and XDA Developers seems to be "international" forum place with worldwide users.

Therefore, this advertisment should be only on local US resident forums but not on international ones as XDA supposed to be.

That product should be avaluable here for everybody, or for nobody.

I hope moderator will interfere here because it is blatant forum rules violation.

Who doesn't want a free case? Lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] blackhawk:
I agree with you and rather not throw large pieces of metal is into the equation.

Antenna design is complex. The bluetooth wavelength is roughly 12.5 cm and is probably the most vulnerable. Ghosting is another concern.

Adding another loop of metal near the one already present may cause unintended electromagnetic coupling and degrade performance.

Only way to know for sure is to play with it a lot.

May have little impact or not.

Gotten excellent durability/protection from composite polycarbonate urethane cases... so that is my preference.

Less material fatigue with polycarbonates and at the same time can absorb/dissipate high G impacts.

Lol, one of the things I'm trying to protect to begin with is the aluminum frame of the Note.

FYI, this thread is really old, if you read carefully the FIRST post, there is a link to their website, where clearly states 200 free cases for those meeting certain requisites, then, it clarifies that applicants MIGHT be winners of a free case, as this thread is old, I think that most surely all cases haven allocated

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] kangi26:
I got the case yesterday (but wont have a device until Friday :crying: )

So my 1st impressions are really good. I appreciate the "hand written letter" (Even though its a photo copy), it adds a personal touch that I really like.

I really like that it doesn't have all of the soft rubber that some of the other rugged cases have.

I like that it doesn't have a built in screen protector, all of the ones I've used on other cases have never been as good as a separate aftermarket (or even the ones coming on Samsung devices from the factory now).

I really like the kickstand, I've actually never used a case with one so I'm looking forward to trying it out.

It has some thickness to it so it looks like its got some great protection.

I'm a

little

concerned on how easy/difficult it will be to get the S-Pen in and out, but we'll see how that works for me on Friday.

Thank again for giving me the chance to try this case out. Lookin good so far!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] DarkStarr:
I'd love to try one of these cases.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] cliffr39:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] khudson:
Hello I have one of your cases for my Note 9 and love it. I would be happy to try one for my Note 10+. Following you on Twitter and FB and will be happy to spread the word...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] MagicSpeller:
I'm confused.

:confused:

Can those of you have tried this, can you help me understand how it works? My email from Karl says this:

I just want to be honest that this program requires you to buy the cases by you own from amazon after you get money via PayPal.

It might seem tricky, but you are 100% safe for your money, as your money will be in your PayPal account before you start purchasing cases from Amazon. I am the only taking risk.

I just reread it and I think I understand better now. Is he saying that he will deposit the money in my PayPal account and I use that money to buy the cases on Amazon?

I don't see that any money has been deposited in PayPal. Do I need to reply to the email and give him instructions?

TIA!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] liemydude:
Ready to test a new case
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] jesmann:
You make the purchase on Amazon. Send them the order information (order number and total amount) then they will reimburse you for the amount spent to PayPal. Once you try it out they want/hope you give the case a good review on Amazon. I did it the other night while he was still in the office and had the funds returned in a few minutes
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] mjoshi123:
Exactly what he said. I'm getting my case tomorrow, will give it a shot and see how is.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] marctronixx:
I dont use paypal so this will prevent me from taking part. I understand why the seller wants to do things this way to make the review show up as “verified” but they should offer another form of reimbursement besides PP...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] Dorick:
Looking forward to test this on my new Note 10 Plus aura glow!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] forsaken82:
Id love to test a case!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] cliffr39:
What stopped me from that email was the part about "If selected". Sounded like 1) buy, 2) be accepted, 3) wait for refund. I don't want to just willy-nilly purchase an unknown brand if not for the review service. I could have misunderstood it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] jesmann:
They'll email you when accepted with a link to buy from then email them back your order info. I had been sent the funds within 30 minutes of ordering after I got their email.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] kangi26:
Now that I have the phone in the case I have my thoughts on it I can share

I absolutely love it over the Otterbox defender. It's WAY less bulky.

The feel of it is great, the back is a LITTLE slick, but that isn't an issue since I mainly hold the device by the sides and it has some "V" shaped ridges along the left and right sides.

I have the stock screen saver on the device and don't see any issues with it at all. I cant speak to anything like the WhiteStone Dome

The Kickstand is a great feature I've never used on a case before, but I think I'm going to use this one a lot.

I'm not having any problems using the Samsung Fast Charge Wireless Charging Stand at all (Sure isn't as fast as the wired charging though)

Now the couple things that don't work for me

The opening for the S-Pen, I have "average" sized hands and I really can't use any finger except my pinky to get the S-pen out. I can use my index finger, but I have to angle it JUST SO. If the case was shaved down a little bit between the S-Pen opening and the speaker, it would make it a ton easier to get the pen out (I might just take a razor knife to it and see for sure)

And the only other thing that I don't care for are the Vol+/- and Pwr buttons. The buttons are almost flush with the case itself and with the ridging along the sides I just can't get a great feel of the buttons, or if I can, which one is which. I think an easy fix for this too, would be to remove the "V shaped" ridges between the Vol and Pwr buttons, and maybe even a couple on on either sides too. (Again, a razor knife might be in the works to see if it helps here as well)

Overall though, I think this is a really great case. Needs a couple minor adjustment (IMO) but you guys have a great product. Thanks very much for giving me a chance to try it out!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] cliffr39:
Just followed the link in the email. Awaiting their case.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] MagicSpeller:
You're the second one who's said you got repaid immediately. The reason I initially posted a question about the procedure was that Karl claimed that he was taking all the risk, and I didn't see how that could be true.

I sent a reply to Karl on the 19th asking for clarification and posted here a couple of times but three days later had still not heard from Armadillo Tex. So on Thursday, I (yes, I) took the risk and went to Amazon and ordered. I sent Karl the order information.

Two days later and still no PayPal deposit and no response from the company.

I haven't spent any time actually testing the case, but it seems to fit well and looks good. But am I the only one who's had such bad luck communicating with the company?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] jesmann:
Well they emailed me first saying I was selected and instructed how to order.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] MagicSpeller:
Yes, that was the first email telling me what I needed to do and explaining that he was taking all the risk....

I guess when I replied and didn't hear back from him I should have realized that was a bad sign.

This was his exact email, minus the links at the end:

*****

Thank you so much for your email.

My name is Karl, the marketing guy for free samples. I just want to be honest that this program requires you to buy the cases by you own from amazon after you get money via PayPal.

It might seem tricky, but you are 100% safe for your money, as your money will be in your PayPal account before you start purchasing cases from Amazon. I am the only taking risk. Plus there are tons of people from XDA forum did that already.

Please make sure go to the links below, add each of them to your amazon wishlist and shopping cart. Please spend at least 1 mins to read all the info, and COME BACK TO ME SO I CAN GIVE YOU THE MONEY ASAP.

Yes, I will send you money for 2 cases: both note 10 and note 10 plus cases via Paypal!

*****

Doesn't it sound like I was selected?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] mjoshi123:
Okay I got my case from Amazon, here is my initial thoughts, case is very well made. Anyone who is into this kind of rugged case, they would love it.

Although i see issue with the case specially for Note10+ model. Phone itself is big, adding case just makes phone too big to handle. Specifically the width of phone increases bit too much for my liking.

One improvement they can make is make the back of case less slippery, because case is way too wide, if the back is made of some kind of groovy material instead of smooth plastic, it will add more confidence in handling.

The kick stand is nice touch, the side grip has nice groove for making phone less slippery. Access to pen is nice, same for all ports.

Buttons on side are little less tactile then what it should be. Also they are more flushed into body, it makes it little hard to find without turning phone on side.

Some pictures of the case added.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] crowlaw:
Just gave you guys some major props on Twitter "Dallas The Dude". If you happen to have an extra orange Note 10 Plus case lying around you can send it my way and will give you a fair but killer review, as these look sick, but I blew all my money on the phone today and don't have money for a case,lol. But seriously, I hope you guys take off, one fellow Dallasite to another.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] fcortes626:
So the way this works is you have to wait and see if you are chosen. If they do choose you they send you another email and they tell you to add the cases to your Amazon wishlist and to your cart and once you do that you email them and they give you the money for them through PayPal, or so they say they do. I got the second email saying I was approved so I did that they said and days have gone and no reply and no money was deposited into my PayPal. I mean I don't care how good you claim your product to be, but if you have poor customer service then you won't make it as a company. My phone comes in o. Friday and since I have a tendency to drop my phone I will not wait any longer and buy a different case so that it arrives in time.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] vinumsv:
Would love to get one too but one question is this open on US customers ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories] MagicSpeller:
Sorry

I'm sorry you're having to go through this, but I'm glad to hear (finally) that I''m not the only one. The email said that they are the ones taking the risk, but I had exactly the same experience as you. For the past week now, I've posted here (several times), emailed them, and instant messaged them, but absolutely no response.

And you're right -- The product seems to be a good one, but with terrible service like this, my review will not be good.
