I pre-ordered the blue, but that black looks great. Thanks for the pics.

A few more wouldn't hurt. Which of the bunch do you like the most?

Rinke are my favorite... Snug fit and premium feel... Caseology is pretty good too, just like the fit of the rinke better

 

[Knightstalker]

Which is this and does it fit good?

So..what do you have in the realm of clear and flexible? I want a case to go over my skin lol

I've got a Spigen Ultra Hybrid Crystal Clear which is a rigid plastic back with the sides having a little bit of flex. The sides actually stick out quite a bit especially compared to the VRS design Crystal Bumper Hard Case. I have one in Gold that is a clear, thin, shock resistant tpu case with a removable hard plastic colored bumper or edge (they also come in silver, black, orchid, blue, red, green, and pink). I really like this case. It's easy to install and remove, you don't have to take the bumper off the main case to install or remove it. It's really lightweight. It also says it's U.S. MILITARY Standard Drop Tested 810G-516.6. You can plug the phone charger in while either case is on and the wireless charger works fine with both cases. I paid more for the VRS case but it was under $23 including tax delivered. I recommend it. The photos show the front and back of the VRS case. You really only see the colored bumper from the back and sides.

Which one has the U.S. MILITARY Standard Drop Tested 810G-516.6.? The Spigen or VRS? I've used and loved the Verus cases for years, which I just found out were rebranded as VRS.

The VRS is Military Drop Tested .

They used to go by Versus. It says VRS DESIGN is a premium brand name of ispeaker Co., Ltd.
I purchased from them directly.

Nice pictures, have you tried to wireless charge with the case?

I'm happy to report that my Seneo Fast Wireless Charger can charge my Note 8 with the Samsung Rugged Protective Case on.



And here's a YouTube video where the guy is demonstrating the Samsung wireless charger working with the rugged case...

So far I am rocking 3 different cases for the N8.
- Otterbox Defender. This case is amazing. Feels awesome, does not add to much bulk. It also protects the phone very well.
- Samsung's heavy duty kick stand case. Haven't used it yet.
- Speck presidio. This case offers great grip.
I'm now waiting for mophie or zerolemon to come out with their battery cases for this phone.

I picked up a Spigen Tough Armor and Samsung's Rugged case...so far

 

[durandetto]

Just got this one today. Still waiting on my iBlaison with built in screen protector and belt clip. Hopefully it shows up before Friday when I get my phone. More importantly hopefully my local T-Mobile has a black note 8 when I get there.

Finally got my Note 8 this morning!
Here are the 3 cases I have so far.
Using the blue wave for now, will test the other 2 on the weekend.

I got like I've had for the last Note 5, the Spigen Ultra Thin Matte case. It's grippy and basically all I want out of a case as I also use a leather belt holster.

 

[kirksucks]

I ordered these yesterday.

I had a few more expensive cases on my note 5 and I really end up liking the thin flexible TPU cases. They seem to mold to the phone over time and take a good bounce for how thin they are.

 

[suitebliss]

Ordered 3 from Caseology

 

[JoshDunc]

I'm rolling with the OtterBox Symmetry. Quite slim with great protection.

I also used a belt leather pouch with my previous phones.
But I can't decide one which one will work best with this beast of a phone now!
Do you have any recommendations?

I went on to EBay and picked up a black belt leather holster, 6.2 inches in length. The holster works well with the thin Spigen case on it. I've been thinking about ballistic screen protector but don't think the holster will work with it... too snug, might pull off the screen protector.

Side note... no pun intended...I cannot see myself getting anytime in the future a larger phone than the Note 8. These smartphones are at a point at least for me... at maximum length.

 

[STARGATE]

Thanks Climb14er, I want the leather pouch for work only and the case I'm using for work is the blue wave Ringke, which is actually thick.
So I'll need something a bit bigger I guess.
The biggest phone ever for me was the GS7 edge.
This Note 8 is even bigger!
I didn't want a huge phone, but the S-Pen functionality and other stuff made me get this one.
I don't regret it, but I definitely agree with you about this been the biggest I might go with a phone.
