Review: It was worth every penny and then many more - within five minutes of taking my $55 otterbox defender case off and putting this $20 case on, i was sold. it feels great in my hand, and it lets me show off how beautiful the phone itself is, much more so than the bulky case i bought from otterbox. this isn't the kind of case you're going to use when you're trying to protect your phone from meteorites falling from the sky or getting hit with a sledgehammer or a james bond level explosion. this is something that you want, something you will like, something you will trust to protect your phone through many accidents. i like this case, a lot, in other words. i saw a lot of reviews saying that the screen is hard to use because of the screen protector, but i am simply NOT having that problem, at all. i use my s-pen VERY often, especially for taking notes amd making quick shopping lists, and the only problem i have come across is my s-pen tip wasn't gliding over the surface smoothly. i fixed the problem by putting a new tip on my s-pen (there are a few that came with this phone in the box, so you don't have to order them online. you should replace your s-pen tip every few months anyway). now it writes as well as before. if i had to think of one thing i don't think is perfect, it is that the back of the phone still attracts fingerprints. however, this will be the case with ANY clear case or glass-backed phone, so i knew what i was getting into. i am still very satisfied with my purchase from i-blason. this case has quality punching far above what i thought i could get for $20, and this is definitely replacing my defender series otterbox case. i will update this review at a later date. update 11/24/18 i am glad i bought this case. no problems whatsoever. durabaility is great. i've dropped my phone quite a few times in the past month i've owned it. no damages. the case shows no scuff marks, and it shows off my dbrand skins on my note8 very well. water doesn't get under the protector, either, and my ability to write on the screen is the same as day one. i have one and only one gripe, and it is that the case is somewhat difficult to get off. after removing it 5-6 times since i bought the case, it comes off more easily, but in no way does it seem to be weakened or less stiff. this was a problem i had with my otterbox case. taking off the otterbox often made it look raggedy, and the corners of the case didn't touch the body of the phone. i've seen zero of that with this case. for this price, you'd expect a case like this to have some sort of gimmicks. you'd think that the case would disintegrate when rubbed or slid across a rough surface. maybe the screen protector would break easily. maybe the case would be heavy or awkward to hold. the truth is... none of these things are issues. zero downsides. just one good, high quality, inexpensive case for an expensive phone. and i trust this case. i'm glad i purchased it. i have a small finger ring on the back that i got with the magnetic mount i bought for my phone, for use when driving, and i love it. this case even looks good with a big magnet on the the back. all in all, i paid $20 for a case. $20 brought me peace of mine, protection with style, and loyalty to a company i regret not hearing about years ago. 10/10, i recommend this to anybody looking for the best phone case for their note 8, and other phones too.
Review: Great protection and look - Great phone case! It feels very sturdy and strong and looks great. If anything I'd have to say the only thing I don't like is that the plastic cover on the screen can sometimes make it difficult to use the touch screen. Like if I tap a button or picture it won't take until the 2 or 3 tap. It happens more often around the edges of the screen. But still giving it a 5 because as far as protecting the phone, it can take a good slip and still not show a scratch on the actual phone. Also like how the back is clear and you can see the orchid gray color of the phone. Why get a phone that is a cool color and then get a phone case that covers that completely? And it's not too bulky and doesn't add more weight to the phone. ****update! So after almost seven months of using this phone case I've got some updates. My phone has been dropped multiple times even on its face and it still looks brand new thanks to this phone case! The case itself does look a little dingy like its scratched up and has discoloration on the rubbery parts but still looks decent. My only issue with it should have to be thay the screen protector has alot of scratches and its making it a little difficult for me to see images in my phone. These scratches weren't made from dropping the phone they look more like scratches from just over use. Like you can see where I'm constantly pressing or swiping with my finger. Besides this I'm still very happy with this item, it held up great for seven months and the only reason I'm getting a new phone case is because if the screen protector.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What material is the screen protector?**
A: It's plastic and scratches easily. I removed it after it was almost impossible to see the screen. When both pieces are off, start at the corner of the plastic screen from the exterior and begin removing. After your remove it, you can add your own screen protector or leave it alone. Screens are pretty resistant to minor scratches.

**Q: Should I also get tempered glass along with this case?**
A: absolutely not!   i jave drops this phone over 100 yimes ... literally...   not a spec of damage.   i did out on 3 dofferent types of screen protectors  ALL  cases issues eith case or reduced sensitivity of Screen.

there is no need.   the case does it all for cheap and at $20  replacing it later is easy and affordable vs the high cost solutions that provide the same protection.

FYI  i have motor control issues...  i have lost many devices over the years.   this one works better than all the rest.   plus they are not bulky.

**Q: Can i use this case with a pet, glass or other screen protector simultaneously on my phone? if so, is it reccomened for added protection?**
A: I had to change it. Using this case with a tempered glass was very difficult to use the screen. I had No problems with the s pen.

**Q: Do you sell just the screen/front portion? Mine has so many gouges/scratches that is destroying my stylus.**
A: No, I do not.  I am selling it as one.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely surprised: Great quality - great price!
*by L***N on January 6, 2018*

A great buy, and awesome ROI (return on investment) for the value of all around NOTE 8 protection. I based my decision to buy this case from reading other customer reviews. This case in comparison to others stood out for its style, price, sleekness and look of quality. I’ve had the phone and case less than a week. The case fits the phone like a glove, and does not feel bulky…feels great in hand. I’m 6’3, 230 lbs. Case comes in 2 pieces and snaps tightly together securing the phone. Screen touch responsiveness is great – very pleased with touch accuracy and APP response upon sliding finger or clicking an icon. EDGE PANEL: Activating the edge panel (this is a 1” icon) on right side of screen can be slightly tricky as there is an indentured curvature or dip between the clear face and the outer rubber piece your finger must meet to swipe to display panel. May require a second swipe to grab it – not major in my opinion. S Pen EJECTION: This phone is very well protected with the outer rubber. Because of this, I find ejecting the S-pen is best done using my pinkie finger as the S pen requires a "push-in" to release, and "push-in" to lock-back into phone. Rubber Buttons: Outer buttons very responsive on left and right side of case. Back of phone clear plastic showcases “SAMSUNG” and "Galaxy Note 8" in tempered grey color (on the black phone) looks great when phone is face down. This is a great case – I highly recommend if you’re considering purchasing a NOTE 8 or if you have one and need a replacement case. This is worth protecting your investment. Very pleased with this purchase! Review Update: Using Calculator App: Upon using the calculator, I immediately noticed and found myself pressing numbered buttons repeatedly to register key presses on screen. The calculator application so far is where I see problems occur with this case. I like using the phone calc, but I had to use my TI Npire calculator instead of the phones CALC app. For this, I reduced initial rating from 5 stars to now 4.
