This one looks nice. I've always like spigen. IMO they have some of the best cases

I went with this one because so I don't have to carry a purse and I have this same exact case on my S8+ and I really like it.

I took a good look at that also. I thought I could use Samsung pay and keep a card or some cash as back up. Then I thought about all the cases I bought and ended up not using after a few weeks.

Nice thread. I always get a case with kickstand and it comes in handy very often.

I don't like bulky cases at all, there is one from VZW that I like a lot that I have used on past 3 phones at least and it hasn't let me down yet (after many falls).

Not pretty, but actually thin and invisible from the front. And has a kickstand and it's tough.

Next query. Why VZW has switched from the very inexpensive 3 for $12 but effective screen protectors to tempered glass ones that sell $35 for 1. Love to know. TIA...

I use to use them. I liked them because they cover the back too. I even used it on the Note 4 and it had a leather back. I just looked they don't have one for the Note 8 yet but I may have to
keep checking.I just ordered one off Ebay for the Note 8 until I find a really good one but I also have another 8+ one that may work temporarily too, it's only a tad smaller but it won't cover the whole screen.

Phone won't be out for 3 weeks, so plenty of time for more stuff to become available.

I seriously wanna know about the tempered glass and why VZW is pushing them vs the old cheaper ones.

Thanks. Lol yeah. I won't pay that much. Not unless there is a bunch of reviews saying that it is worth the money and works very well. But that's me tho.

it's freaking insane. I like the cheappies, because if they get dinged you just swapped them since they come 3 to a pack. will see what others say.

I'm waiting for the Samsung cases, like the clear one for simple casual use and will probably get the alcantara or the new Samsung protective case with kick stand.

They're on Samsung's website - including the Alcantara and rugged cases.

Idk why my pics post 1 at a time. These were both $5 with the codes someone was kind enough to post yesterday.

Care to share the code looked back but can't find it tks

I went with the Spigen Ultra Hybrid S as my primary case because I've missed having a kickstand ever since my HTC EVO 4G LTE days: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073RWFZQH/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

However, I've really been considering a wallet case for when I go out and this one from Spigen is the first to catch my eye: https://www.amazon.com/Spigen-Wallet-Foldable-Kickstand-Feature/dp/B073R75CF2/?tag=androidcentralb-20&ascsubtag=UUacUdUnU62520

I need a case with a good kickstand, with this big screen TV, I'll be watching a lot of TV. LOL

The Alcantara looks kind of nice. Wonder how it is in person though.

Page 7 of thread have you pre-ordered your cases. The post is by tourbound. The code depends on the case u choose.
