In Search of the Thinnest Note 8 Case

[imlegend84]

I've been searching. Please help me find it. I'm currently using the Spigen Thin Fit Galaxy Note 8 case. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the case. But I'm looking for something similar with the top and bottom parts of the phone exposed like the side buttons are. I love the minimalistic design, but hate that the bottom and top of the phone are covered as well. Thanks in advance.

Essentially, are you looking for a case that doesn't protect the top and bottom at all?

Bear Motion then.

I looked into this. They have the product on Amazon and I’ve read the reviews where the corners crack or break. Any others?

I had this on my S8+ and this is the Note version. It is just a very, very thin plastic shell. You do see a lot of complaints about cracking and breaking. Mine didn't on the S8+ but I only had that phone with that case for a few weeks. Obviously, if you are going to go that thin with plastic, it's not going to be able to take much stress.

However..... I would recommend this one. It's TPU so it's flexible but it is super thin. I have not found anything as thin as this and durable. On eBay.

It was so cheap and it actually comes from within the U.S.

I'm currently using the Spigen Thin Fit Galaxy Note 8 case.

I should also mention I have this case as well. I just went back to it and having the deeper indentation at the fingerprint sensor makes it a bit easier to locate with your finger. These ultrathin cases don't have a very pronounced lip there.

Infreecs case, not much protection though except from scratches

If you aren't looking for drop protection then try "Peel"

Guys, I'd have to vote for the OEM Samsung Galaxy Note8 Protective Cover. Plenty snug, so much that I had to learn to put it on bottom first like the instructions say. It has decent grip, but most important to me, it doesn't interfere with the screen edge. $9.97 right now on Amazon.

I recently bought a case from patchworks called a flexcase. it super thin and really just adds grip here is the link

I searched for thin case and spent a lot. Finally tried Samsung's Alcantara case and very happy with it. Excellent feel with the case.

You can't get any thinner then this. Full body protection.

I tried a lot of cases for the thin fit but finally settled to using the original Samsung clear case that came with the device. It is the thinnest one I have used. The only disadvantage is that the grip can be slippery. The device originated in UAE and it must be something Samsung adds to the box to that region... My N8 from UK did not have it in the box.
