Note 20/Note 20 Ultra accessories discussion.

Finally here come my 2 cases. Moment for daily use, Supcase for outdoor activity . Supcase UB Pro is huge and solid, but i like it.

Here's my Note20 Ultra with DBrand Seafoam Green Skin in the i-Blason Area and in the Caseology Skyfall.

I should mention there must be something about the way I put the cases on, that does or doesn't affect how it sits with the WSD screen protector. I put the Skyfall on it before I got the skin and it was fine. I had to take it out to get info off my SIM card, and when I put it back in, it was pushing and lifting one corner. And then I put it back after I skinned it to see how it is with the case on it, and now its fine with the WSD again, no lifting at all.

Wow, that Seafoam is really an attractive shade!
 
I got 2 Ultra cases today because my phone arrived yesterday, but the case and buds won't arrive until Monday.

I got an Otterbox Symmetry--clear with some sparkles. I'm not a blingy person and likely won't keep this one but there are a few of you that I thought might like to see this. I also got a Tech21 Evo Check--my standard case. I will also include thickness comparison photos in a separate post.

Here's the Otterbox Symmetry:

This is the Tech21 Evo Check. I really like the black with the bronze. It is transparent over the bronze but the sides look BLACK at the edges of the screen.

Comparisons of Otterbox Symmetry. The Otterbox is more rigid when i thy to flex it--sorry, no way to photograph that by myself. Both have a thicker built-up lip surrounding the camera bump, but the Tech21 provides better protection, which i hope you can tell from the photos. But the Otterbox is slightly thicker and more rugged around the edges and has just barely more lip around the screen.

I had both cases (sans the bling) for my Note 10, as well as an S-View. I think the Tech21 & Otterbox protetect well and are grippy, especially the T21, but but both can start to feel sort of "sticky", or "tacky." I wipe down with isopropyl alcohol, which cleans them, but they still feel a little tacky at times. So I wash with dish soap, which works perfectly.

Yeah, I was nervous at first, because I know the color could vary between the website and what I ended up getting. But I am happy with it! I do have a few more skins coming to me though, lol
 
So, I bought the Note 20 Ultra. Samsung basically had a discount that allowed a free transparent case (valued at $39), so I went with that.

Now, onto screen protectors.

I usually know what tempered glass to get, but I'm flummoxed by the protruding rear lens.
I presume I need a separate lens protector? Tempered glass? And does that comport with the Samsung case, or do they already pretend to cover the back lens and protect it?

I've received nothing as yet.
 
can someone recommend some finger dongles...or whatever th e y are called when the phone is a bit too big for your hands. I have the note20ultra with the Ghostek slim case....but I need suggestions on the hand thingies on back.....sorry...im not tech savvy.

There's a strap that someone posted in this thread a couple of weeks ago. I have the link somewhere but can't find it now. It looked like it would allow wireless charging. You might look through the posts here from the first 1-2 weeks. And if I happen to find it I'll ping you.

Look for things like a phone grip, ring, strap, popsocket ... I know popsockets are a go-to super popular product, I see now they make one you can remove the top from if you use wireless charging. There are loads of phone rings on Amazon as well, and a variety of strap types.

Sorry I haven't used any myself yet to have a recommendation from experience but I knew what you were looking for. I've been debating them myself.
 
Got the UV sanitizer today. This thing is huge. I don't know why I thought it was small to where I could carry it back and forward to work with me.lol20200829_202259.jpeg20200829_202233.jpeg

Anyone have experience with the Supcase UB Pro and the Whitestone Dome? Is is it WSD friendly? Or will it lift your protector when putting it on and off?

I sure will go through it. Thanks

I received this case by Poetic. I've been looking for a rugged case to go with my collection and this one really seemed to fit the bill. It's the pretty standard two piece: frame plus case. The edges of the case is made of a hard rubber whereas the back is a hard tpu plastic. The phone fits snug and because the edges are raked narrow, it doesn't feel very thick in the hand. The kickstand works in both portrait and landscape mode, and can also act like a finger holder. I like this case.

But, I think I'll need to send it back. Why?? Because unfortunately it doesn't play very nice with Whitestone Dome. The lips of the case are too close on the edges and even overlap at top. It's actually quite a challenge putting the frame with your phone into the case and an even bigger challenge removing your phone. I don't know how the frame didn't snap in half. Because the frame is so snug, it will push against your WSD (if you have one) while you try to remove or insert your phone and it will lift your WSD and ruin it.

I've had these types of cases before, and they weren't nearly as hard to insert and remove your phone as hard as it was with this Poetic case. I think the rubberized edges are harder than the others I've used which makes it really hard to get your phone out (or in).

So, I wanted to like this case but I won't be able to keep it. If you don't have WSD, then this should be fine except you may break a fingernail trying to get your phone out.
