I got mine yesterday. I got the matte blue.
I'm pretty sure I'm gonna return it though.
I found it actually more slippery than the stock back.
I don't mind the top and bottom exposure because I think the odds of impact at those points are slim. I think the corners are most important and I don't know why one of them has a cutout (top right). I can't see a reason for it.
Looking at my last phone's scratches the corners are where it hit the few times it fell.
As far as the exposed top and bottom I guess it was easier to mold that way...
Like I said I don't mind the exposure but I realized the bottom opening has a bit of an edge to it. Noticeable. I was holding the phone one handed and I noticed I use my pinkie finger along the bottom of the phone as a cradle.
Unfortunately, that edge is right there and was uncomfortable.
So the case is beautiful and has the looks and the feel (but a bit slippery) but the exposed corner and the bottom edge make me want to try something else.
On my tbolt I had a Seido Surface and it was perfect. Slim and added very little bulk and weight.
I contacted Seido to see if they were going to make that line for the Note and they said at this time they weren;t. Perhaps the 5 million in sales will change that...I guess for now I'll keep it naked and research some more.
