[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ratchetrizzo:
They came through this time and hooked me up for 2 cases, I had already bought the Vanguard on the 10th to make sure I had a case the day my S22U came.

CaseBorne R Series Compatible with Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra 5G Case - Aluminum Frame-12 ft Drop Tested - Aramid Fiber - Black

I got this little gem and was surprised how sturdy it was in person. The look and the feel of the caseborn R aramid fiber was much more than I expected. It feels very sturdy, it looks great (almost like carbon fiber). Inside it has a coating and little tiny bumpers that keep it *JUST* from touching the back so the phone wont ever get scratched. I don't do drop tests but this will pass a carpet test no problem, and I believe the company when it say it will protect to 12 feet. It feels THAT solid for being so small and rugged.

Overall it's a nice little protective case that gets my thumb up and I say go for it if you like it. I don't think you will be disappointed in it.

CaseBorne R Series Compatible with Samsung S22 Ultra 5G Case - Aluminum Frame-12 ft Drop Tested- Black

This case is almost exactly like the caseborne R aramid fiber one I got (I wasn't sure which one I would like better or feel safer using). I said in that review that it was solid and definitely would meet with the drop test on carpet and the 12 foot test. This one is really no different except it's clear polycarbonate on the back instead of black aramid textured fiber. I'm PRETTY sure the polycarb is specially reinforced because you can see a safety pattern if you look real real close (you can't notice it at all once it's on the phone).

Again, it has a peel off lining inside and safety bumpers to BARELY keep the back of your phone from touching the case (so it wont have scratches transferred from the polycarb). I like this case a lot and if I wasn't so scare of dropping my $1300 S22U, I would have went with one of the R series for full time but I went with the V (vanguard series, check that one out too on here). I have one of those on my note 9 (backup phone) and I have literally dropped that thing on dirt, rocks, carpet, the highway, concrete and each time the case saved my phone from damage. With caseborne phones, when you put your phone in them, no matter how long they stay in, no matter how hard you are on them, when you take the phone out it looks brand new like when you put it in. I personally like the aramid back black one better but that's a personal decision.

If you want a clear back case that will have your back and protect, I recommend this one (the R series with the clear back the frame color is up to you).

Vanguard Series

I bought this with the 30% off coupon caseborne offered (you can find the link to it on the FB page).

I had the note 9 version and when I got the S22U, I knew I was going to get this case. The one for the note 9 saved my phone when it fell or dropped MULTIPLE times. I have no doubt that my phone would have broke or the screen would have shattered without a case of this quality. I have two more different models on the way to see how they compare (they are caseborne too, just slimmer and different material). I'll review them when they get here but *THIS* is the case you want for pure safety and durability. The price is right, the quality is top notch, the warranty is great (you'll never need it, these are american made to a high standard) and the customer service is outstanding. Buy a caseborne case, you wont regret it nor will you overspend on one of those "in store name brand" models that claim they offer the same or better quality. (they don't, they are close but not as well made as a caselogic). As long as they keep making cases for the phones I buy I'll keep buying them. They are loyal to their customers, and I am loyal to them. If i DID have any problems they would take care of me in a heart beat.

Like I said, I have a V series on my note 9 and it saved the phone so many times that I didn't think twice once I saw the coupon on their FB page on the 10th and paid out of pocket for that one. HOWEVER, if I didn't have a case it would have been one I chose to review along with the aramid black one (I don't care for clear but the caseborne clear one is of high quality and I have nothing bad to say about it just that clear isn't for me). If my dexterity gets better this year I may switch to the thinner aramid fiber one but the V series saved my ass enough times to make me just say F it and keep it on forever, it's such a solid and protective case.

You can't really go wrong with any of the three, it depends on your situation and personal preference on which one you want to get
