Note 2 durability

[johnnyshinta]

I got my note a few days ago and with it I got a verizon kickstand case. Well I personally like the phone without the case so I took it off. Then I put it back on to watch a movie with the kickstand. Then took it off. Then put it on to show my wife. Then took it off.

It's a pretty tight fit and was difficult to take off. Can this hurt the phone. It's made of plastic so I wonder.

I've definitely seen cases damage phones. I'd screen protect it, put it in the case you want and leave it there.

That's not encouraging. Do basically I can't take the case off to clean the phone for fear it will break.

I don't have that case in my note 2, but I had it on previous phones. I found that if you open the kickstand fully , that it would be easier to remove the case

I'm not going to put it on anymore. I've put it on and removed it several times and I keep worrying about it hurting the phone. So I'm going to leave it off.

Don't worry about it. I've got 2 of those holster/kickstand cases and they still fit fine. I've taken them on and off almost once a day since phones release.

I do recommend a screen protector. I, like others baby the heck out of my phones yet if I look hard enough I can spot some very feint small scratches. I recommend ismooth protectors. They are the absolute best.

If you are within the 14 day return period, take it back

You've removed the case that many times and the phone is still fine?

I remember using a Seidio Surface on a previous phone of mine (Can't remember which one) and it scuffed up the trim from removing it. I've made a habit of only using TPU Cases such as CruzerLite or the official Samsung Protective Case+.

Yep. It's just a simple snap on case for the back, not going to damage the phone unless a piece of dirt is stuck on it when you attach it.
