I enjoyed my s-view case briefly buy I wouldn't really use the s-view screen as often and I really got tired of the flap being open when I wanted to take pictures with my phone that were not cover photos. I've gone back to just switching out a few battery doors that I have found just to mix things up. May use it again but probable not.

Did you read the previous posts about the clip?

I got the s view cover from amazon for around $20. It said that it was used; but when I got it, but it was still in the package, sealed and had all of the plastic on it. I like it so far; I think I may try the magnet add on.

My s view/phone just started glitching lately. I dropped the phone on the carpet (very gentle fall) and the cover fell off, battery fell out. At first I thought it was the phone but I removed the sview cover and have the phone naked now and it is working fine. When the flip cover was open, i would occasionally get the sview lock screen and could only operate the phone through the mini sview screen. When i slap the cover to the back side of the phone it seems to fix it. It appears as if the magnet in the case got messed up. Anyway, it drove me crazy so I took it off. It is frustrating though because it was expensive. I had the cover for a few months now and it worked pretty good until then. I didn't like how the sview window glass got scratched up though. I felt like the case protected the phone glass well but not the phone when you drop it.

I have the Spigen magnetic holder and it works! My only gripe is that you have to attach the magnet to the side of the N3, which is a pain because i like to swap to my Neo Hybrid case.

I used my s cover for 5 mins before I realized it is the only case I have out of 12 cases that I can't use my bed side charging dock with. What a waste of money. That is the deal breaker for me.

THE BEAST,,NOTE 3. SIZE IS EVERYTHING!!!

Same here....I'm glad it came with a couple of extra two sided tapes. I like my S-View case and Neo Hybrid equally, but the S-View case looks more professional. ...IMO

Does the S View screen actually look at that? I thought it was only set for the size of the Samsung S View. Is it capable of being that big?

The real S-view case is only half the screen.

I really want/need the Spigen magnetic clip, but am afraid to spend more money on accessories just in case I upgrade to the Note 4. :D Decisions. DECISIONS.

I would say go for the clip. It's only 10 bucks!
I can't stand using the Samsung S View without the clip. The top cover just won't stay close whenever I put my Note down after using it.

I was out the entire day on Wednesday. My phone was fully charged when I left the house and 6 hours later my phone had completely died. Barely used it. Realized later that the "flap" stayed open in my purse which drained all the battery. I was ticked. Ugh.
I might just get it.
