    What should I do prior to sending phone for repair?

    I'm looking for advice on what I need to do to safeguard my data before shipping my phone to the Samsung repair center. I've already backed up my content to a computer using Samsung Smart Switch. A couple days ago I had the phone in my front pants pocket. I was carrying an armload of boxes, and...

    Caseology Parallax Thank you. I should have ordered it earlier. My appointment to pick up the phone is tomorrow evening. Amazon Prime "2 day delivery" is more like 10 Days or more to Alaska. I'll probably go with something expensive from Best Buy.

    Note 9 cases

    Is the Parrallax “Grippy” Could you please describe the texture of the Caseology Parallax case? I like the look of that Parallax case, but I need something with a somewhat grippy texture. I don’t want to go full on silicone “can’t get it out of my pocket” grippy, but I want something that is...
