Cases, cases and more cases!!

I thought about this case as I used to love CaseMate but wasn't sure how it would love on the Cream S23U. Ended up reordering some Burga cases I already had for the N20U I'm trading in and also a Velvet Caviar White Croc which looks great in photos for a classy mono chromatic look.
Great choices!
 
Thank you! Their magsafe case is what got me curious. I am also considering it. I already received my Caseology Skyfall and Rinke Fusion for my S23U along with the WSD. I just need to do a quick fit test on the case with the glass.

I'm thinking of giving AmFilm a go this time. I've seen a few people say they're good, and it's hard to argue with £27 for 3 rather than £55 for 2.

I installed the amFilm on my wife's S22U and it's nice and works great! She went from WSD to amFilm and her fingerprint reader works a LOT better with the amFilm.

I will install mine on my S23U once it arrives.

Thanks, it's good to hear from someone who has used both that they are actually worth going for. Think I'll order some.
 
So I received my 3 new cases for the S23 Ultra and they ALL fit my S22 Ultra perfectly. I thought that was not supposed to be the case?

Really they do? I hope that's the case because I ordered one case already but then I could use the same case and matching popsocket. Cuz I thought I read the pen was going to be on the other side but it's not. And if I didn't like the way my phone looked in this case I bought I was going to reorder the one I'm using now so maybe I won't have to.

It's not a perfect fit for all cases. My CaseBorne case fits, but the Volume Up keep getting depressed when you try and use the phone. My Unicorn Beetle does not do this, but I think the tolerances on the CaseBorne are better for a fir on both cases. However, I would not suggest doing it this way, use as intended.
 
I found this list of MagSafe cases compatible with the S23 versions. I'm kind of intrigued by the carved one..https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/10ve7rp/complete_list_of_samsung_galaxy_s23_ultra_cases/

LOL the first case on the list is the one I just posted a few posts before this one - the Monarch Pro Kevlar. $100 is a lot, though. Not sure I would consider such an expensive case - the one I have is a review unit. It looks good and has magsafe capability, but $100.............

I'd like some definitive info on which cases cause problems for the S Pen but I agree, $100 no bueno...

I decided to try the Monarch Pro Kevlar with my S22 Ultra since I don't have my S23 Ultra yet, and I can say the following:

First, I have the Whitestone Dome glass protector on, with screen sensitivity on high in the settings.

With the case on, the S Pen seems to work fine - no issues in drawing.

When I put a magnetic ring to the Magsafe ring on the back, the S Pen does still work, but I notice that sometimes if I glide the pen just slightly on the screen with no or little pressure, certain parts might not register.

Not entirely scientific, and most likely moot anyway, given this price point, but thought someone may find it useful at least on the S22 U. :)

I know nothing about this company but they have a removable plug so you can go either magnetic or not depending on your needs. It's not cheap though. I'd like the ability to throw a battery pack on for long flights kids tournaments, etc instead of using cords and charge blocks. I'd also like a solid mounting system for the car too.

Ohhh, I did the same case for my lavender! Great minds . . . .

I like that casemate will it hold the popsocket? I already got a case though I can't have too many. I'm not sure I'm gonna like the one I got. I know I like the style it's just the design I may not like the way my phone looks with it. I guess we'll wait and see.

I don't use pop sockets so I can't answer that. The back is smooth so I think it would. Sorry!

It's ok I think I'll wait till Best Buy or someone gets them in stock and look at one in person. I have small hands and have to use a pop socket. Phone still big for me lol. I actually liked the plus I saw at Best Buy also.

It should. I've had them before. The problem is you then have issues with wireless charging.
