Official Samsung Slim Case (Pics)

[lucas.scott]

I couldn't find very much on the official info Samsung case. I couldn't find it in stores, and most videos I could find didn't actually have it on the device. So decided i'd buy it blind. Just a few observations after 4/5 days of use:

- It's beautiful. Seriously, even my images don't do it justice. It's all up to personal preference, but I feel its miles ahead of current 3rd party offerings.

- It takes some getting used to. One of my deciding factors of getting the regular S6 over the Edge was the fact that i thought the Edge was uncomfortable. Well, this case feels pretty sharp on the sides. It pokes out juuuusssst a bit on the sides for protection. So while it felt strange at first; I don't even notice it now.

Very nice, I like it. Can you put up a picture showing the back?

 

[lucas.scott]

I agree. I had this case but returned it to bb because I decided to go naked. It's an awesome case and if you look closely it protects all corners, front, back and sides because of how its designed. You really can't go wrong if you use a case.

I have this case. I ordered for the black sapphire and it has the black corners but mine has the clear back. Really shows off the phone but may not be enough protection for a lot of S6 owners. For me it is perfect, for others YMMV!

Just an fyi- your case has slightly less coverage than the OP's case. The clear version has sides that are flush with the phone and the four corners just barely stick out further than the screen if laying screen down. The other one is both a bit wider than the phone and also has a bit more substantial corner protection, although its likely no more protective than the clear one.

if you fall your phone , and crash right one the front , this case will works nothing ,
so go otterbox , or go for a flip case

No idea what you are trying to say but this case provides great protection. Why would you put the metal and glass design in a huge plastic otterbox?

Can you pick these up at Best Buy?

I got this case day 1 with the phone. Looks very nice and helps with the camera lens hump but doesnt offer any protection and the camera lens is still flush with back and can easily scratch

What you are saying is not true. Sorry but there is no way that the camera lens is flush with this case. The camera lens is very well recessed with it.

Thank you, found it. It's called protective cover, I was searching for slim case. Might order one just for fun.

I think that you will be surprised. It's very nice.

I guess Samsung got cheap on their latest 50% off codes as they are down to 30% off. Better then nothing.
I'm going to order one now.
