Don't get me wrong, love my Note 10 + but I have a problem. I have the Pitaka case. It is pretty much bullet proof and is VERY slim. The problem is the case has no girth on the sides and I'm ALWAYS hitting the screen by just holding the phone since the screen goes all right to the very edge of the case. I see lots of cases out there. I do like the slim style cases, but I am looking for one that has some girth on the sides so when I hold it I am not always accidentally hitting the screen. When I eventually take the phone out of my pocket I could be three screens into something accidentally. Can anyone recommend a good quality case that gives me some grabbing room on the sides and preferably has a metal plate so I can still use my Pitaka magnetic wireless charger. I would sacrifice the magnetic charging for a really good case. I appreciate any recommendations. Thanks.
 
Get the Official Samsung Rugged Case for sure. Very comfy to hold and the side has grippy ridges.
 
Awesome. I have heard of Spigen and always liked their stuff, so I ordered the tough armor and hybrid and also the Samsung Rugged which looks really good. I use Amazon so I'll return the ones I do not use.
 
I don't have a Note 10 yet but I've used the Unicorn Beetle by Supcase on my past 3 phones and on a tablet and I love it. Perfect case for me.
 
UAG monarch may fit your requirements.

I just checked their website. I see that case and it does look like an OtterBox Defender wannabe but I do see a picture where there is a cut out for the top speaker grill. They might know exactly what they are doing.

I've used the Uag Monarch on past phones and LOVE it. It is slimmer than the Defender noticeably, but provides great protection and grip as well.
 
I used to use otterbox defender cases.
Found out.
They are too expensive.
Too big, and too bulky.
Hope you find a case you like, both speigen, UAG.
ANd ⁰encased has some good but not expensive cases on the internet.

Good Luck.
 
I will have some results today. I have several cases coming today and can't wait to try them out. Can't wait to stop hitting the screen by just carrying the phone in my hand.
 
Well, I received the OtterDefender, Samsung Rugged, a Spigen which did not open since I knew it would be to thin on the sides, and an Otter Commuter. So far I like the feel of the Otter Defender, which I didn't think I would. But I could actually pick up the phone and handle it normally without hitting the screen by mistake. Then I wanted to try the Commuter because that seems to be step down from the Defender and might take away the bulk. Stupid me somehow ordered one for an S10 Plus. The replacement should be coming today along with the UAG one which I really want to try. I'm surprised no one has the same problem with the Note 10+. Since the screen drops right down to the sides it is almost impossible to handle it without hitting the screen and going into apps by mistake. If you have it in your pocket and grab it you are definitely going to hit the screen for sure. Since the phone would be unlocked because it is on your body. Anyway can't wait to try the Commuter series and that UAG model. I did also order an EGO Case

which I think is an UAG Monarch but was not sure but ordered anyway since I liked the case design. So if that UAG is a little less bulkier than the Defender that could be the model I need. In a few hours I will know for sure. Sorry, could not figure out how to put a URL on text.

It's not the monarch. Look at both side by side and look at the bottom. The monarch has a curve going upward in the middle. Think it's the UAG plasma. Makes since.. The seller is third party adding the design. The monarch is the same price as what the seller is charging, so there's no money to be made, and the monarch has leather on the back, probably wouldn't work well with the design.

I'm curious as to what you think of it, I've been looking at those. The plasma is a good case also.
 
Did receive the UAG Monarch today. The case is a one piece very strong case. Phone seems well protected. I did use it pretty much all day and fell into that same problem where I'm accidentally hitting the screen.

How does everyone else take care of this problem? I also have a work Iphone using a nice Sedieo case. I did notice that my Note's screen is ALWAYS unlocked and the Iphone is not. So I need to find out how to keep my Note always locked no matter if it's on my body, in my house, anywhere. The Iphone fingerprint sensor is one of the best and does work fast, the Note one is a little slow so I will try using the facial recognition. Now I'll just configure my note for screen on display always and to be locked most of the time. Maybe that's the problem, who knows.

Also was not impressed by the expensive Samsung Rugged. Very slippery and just felt cheap plastic on the back. Took me just a few minutes to figure that out.
