I have a Spigen clear kickstand case on my Note 8. It has not yellowed. It will be a year this month since I've had it. I've had it on ever since I got it.

How's the protection on that case? I can't really tell how much of a "lip" it has from the picture I Googled for the note 10 plus.

I ordered 2 clear cases, one being a Spigen and the second being a no-name brand. Both ordered through Amazon. They were both inexpensive enough that they could be easily replaced if any yellowing or discoloration occurs.

I know you don't have one yet, but I'm confused about this part of the case.

Do you think it's just the Essential Zero case with a bit of Tempered glass on the back?

I was thinking the same thing. Has anyone used the Mimic case? I'm tempted to switch from the Spigen Ultra Hybrid..... Thoughts on the tempered glass appreciated.

I'm not clear on what you are confused about. It is not the Essential Case

When I look at the pics of the Note 10 Mimic on ESR's site it looks just like a regular clear case with a piece of glass stuck on the back of the case. It doesn't look like the Mimic for other phones where the entire back seems to be made of glass. I don't know if I'm making sense or not. Screen Shot 2019-08-13 at 3.00.55 PM.jpg

Like I can see the phone, then a clear case, then what looks to be just a piece of glass glued on the back of a case.

The Note doesn't seem to use glass over the camera area like the S10 version.
It is a double layer on the S10+ and the top layer is glass, the bottom feels like rigid plastic. The design from my S10 is slighty different than the Pixel 3XL. The Pixel 3XL appears to be a thicker glass and one piece.

Watch the video on Amazon for the 3XL so you can see what I mean.

If you are unsure you can order it and return it without cost

I just got the Ultra Hybrid S in today, the Note 10+ is quite a bit bigger than my S10+ both wider and taller (more taller than wider) but not bad, I'm typing this with my S10+ inside the Note 10+ case lol

I like this Matte Black sides + clear back case!

Looks Nice!

Not trying to disagree but from my perspective it was just a bit bigger and I actually liked it because the width made it more like prior phones I've had except for the height. It felt thinner than my S10+ ceramic but I think that may have been because of the edges.

It's not insignificant though. Almost 5mm taller and 3mm wider.

I Spigen is awesome. I love their clear cases with the colored sides. I wish they would have more options like back in the day.

I have dropped my phone several times and broken my tempered glass, but the case still looks new. I am definitely ordering this case for my Note 10 Plus.

This is what I have on my Note 8. Best look case I've ever had.

I just received the Spigen Liquid Crystal one, kinda disappointed bc it already reflects a yellowish tint lol maybe I'm too picky but I'm returning it. I think I'll try Olixar.

That's odd...I've had that one and don't recall it being yellowish

Hmm see I don't usually put a screen protector on so I was hoping to avoid that, so with this case I'd probably still need one? I cracked a screen with a otterbox commuter twice than put a defender on (luckily Verizon's screen repair is only $29)
