If you read the review for Supcase for the cases they make and sell on Amazon you will see hardly no one ever gets a reply from the company when they contact them regarding issues.

I know I should've done a review first. Never again. U never think you need a review for a stupid case company. But I guess I was too excited I was getting my Note. I escalated through Paypal hopefully they will come through for me.

Dang that sucks. I'm sorry to hear that. I ordered thru them but thru ebay. I had to go back and look. I ordered mine on the 9/14 and got it 9/18. So you went to their website and ordered right? I had a simular issue with zizo. I ordered one from them on their website and it took 3 weeks to get. Not for the note8 but for my lg v20. Well they ended up sending me another one that came in like 3 or 4 days and told me to keep the other if it came so I had 2 for price of one. But after that i order from them thru ebay and always get it that way between 3 to 5 days. I dont know why it seems faster to me to go thru ebay and Amazon than the actual site. I don't blame you for being upset. And that is not good customer service to not respond back to a customer with an issue.

From now on it's either ebay or Amazon. Or a reputable company. This the first time I was buying from them. I should've went through Amazon. I am thinking it's not the same company now.

Makes ya wonder if it is the real company now days huh? I totally understand your frustration. But hey if it makes you feel any better, after having the case since the 18th, I haven't used it that much. While it's a good nice case. It leaves this sweat looking spot on back and drives me flipping nuts lol. Both clear cases of mine do that. I'm thinking it has something to do with the case and the glass back of the phone. Anywho lol sorry for the rambling. I do hope everything works out for you

They're real. Supcase and I-Blason are the same. IMO they don't really care about customer service and probably find it to cost $$$ and don't bother dealing with it since they sell a low cost product in large bulk.

Unlike someone like Otterbox or UAG that sells pricey cases which poor customer service will easily turn someone off when you're paying $60 for a case and word will spread fast.

True. I didn't know supcase and I-blason was the same company.

I liked the Otterbox Symmetry case when I had the Note 7 and using it again on my Note 8. I'm not completely happy with it. Seems to be lose around the bottom and feels like it could pop the phone out on impact.

They both have the same address in GA and they use the same youtube channel for both their products.

My "Otterbox knockoff". I'm actually liking that it surprisingly doesn't feel heavy in my hand, nor as bulky as this style of case usually is. I may rock this case for a while, or swap it with my UAG case when i get one in the near future. LOL, I still have the factory screen protector on for the moment as I'm waiting for my Skinomi screen protectors to come in the mail. Don't judge me, I can't do a naked screen.

athenatp · Sep 30, 2017

Ok, so I received the supcase yesterday. It's okay. Nothing spectacular, it leaves a lot of fingerprints so I put my casemate back on. I actually like heavy cases so then I know the phone is in my hand...lol. I am done with them. They have no customer service skills. Never once sent an email to say this is what is going with your case ma'am. I honestly would send it back but I don't believe I would get a refund. So I will give it to someone, somewhere....lol.
I guess it's a somewhat happy ending.

I just received the Story Leather back case. Took almost 4 weeks, as all of their cases are made to order with lots of leather choices. High quality product made from real leather. This is not a great case for drop protection, but it adds grip, protects the back, and is a great looking case for business. And I have the Zagg Curve Glass screen protector on the front with no issues with the case.
This case might not be for everyone, but it's perfect if you're looking for a leather minimalistic case.

And here's the back:

The Olixar X-Trex is currently my favourite WhiteStone Dome compatible case - well worth a try!
I thought I'd share some photos for you guys
You can get it here: https://www.olixar.com/x-trex-rugged-samsung-galaxy-note-8-card-case
On another note - as you can see there's quite a lot of dust on the edges of my WhiteStone SP - anyone else having this problem?

The whitestone looks might hairy along the edges. Is that excess glue that is attracting junk along the edges?

thanks for the picture of the story leather case - I ordered mine a week or so ago and am looking forward to getting it - the spigen slim case I have on it now it okay but I prefer leather

Re: Best Cases & Accessories for the Note 8

Here is my phone with the Faux Otter box case and a an IQ SHIELD Liquidskin screen protector. It's very similar to the Neo Flex someone else used, but I've used IQ Shield before with very good results. A little dust settled on my screen because I took too long putting it on. But very pleased with results and clarity of the screen. Very little drag on the pen after completely dried.

I think that might be the problem yeah - going to try and give it a good clean, possibly with alcohol wipes to see if that helps...

That's a nice looking case, I'd pick one up if I didn't already have three cases.

Re: Best Cases & Accessories for the Note 8

Do you and others with multiple cases really swap out of them and into another that often?
