Boy, did iBlasson under estimate the demand on Samsung Note 8 Accessory Sales! I ordered a Unicorn Beetle Pro case through iBlasson's Amazon Store on September 1st and was told I'd have it between September 13th and 15th, in time to pick up my phone on the 15th at my AT&T Store. The 15th came and went and the tracking still had no update as to what was happening so I went and picked up the phone, paid stupid money for a no-name plastic case to carry me over and brought it home. On Saturday, 9/16 Amazon's Tracking slid back to 9/21. ??? I clicked "Return" and decided I'd try and find something else! On Monday, I got an eMail from iBlasson Customer Support asking if I'd please wait a bit longer, explaining that they had underestimated the popularity of the Note 8! At that point, I had calmed down and realized that my last 4 phones had iBlasson cases - what else was I going to buy? I agreed... it arrived today - September 23rd!
...AND I already had a tempered glass screen protector on the phone so I was worried about sensitivity with the iBlasson screen? I gently pressed on the inside of their screen and was able to pop it free from the frame so I could use JUST the frame with NO SCREEN! IF anyone is interested, it didn't take very much pressure at all - I did the sides first, then the ends - they just popped free from the frame like it had very little if any cement on it!

First, for a week, the Spigen Rugged Armor Extra. Added a bunch of grip tape to it because it was so slippery. Went I to the local Sam's Club today and they had a bunch of Speck Presidio Grip in graphite color for $30 each. Grabbed one and absolutely love the tackiness of the grip.

I still added a strip of clear grip tape down the middle and a small black piece above the camera which I'm going to switch out to the clear. I had initially wrapped the black around the edge but it didn't want to stay stuck down. I really like my cases grippy!

Hey, how is the UAG case on the note8? Any problems with screen protector? I have one on my note 5 and it was great but I don't know how it work with a screen protector since I didn't have screen protector on my note 5. I'm just curious if it cause problems with screen protector. I see you got a glass one. I have the spigen neo flex.

Jeez! you must be rich or something! I thought I was bad spending on cases. I currently have the Defender and Caseology Legion. I love the Defender so I probably won't be going case crazy this time.
I love the Defender also however I struggle with it in out of pants pockets, I've been switching on/off with the Spigen tough armor as it's much more pocektable but I love the protection the defender offers. Do you have any issues with that?

The 4 cases I have work just fine with the Zagg Glass. The Monarch is a fantastic case but I'm loving that Pelican Protector.

Just got my Orchid grey s-view case! Now my Note8 has a more familiar feel to it. Similar to my Note3 with its S-view case.
Next on list is a screen protector. Sounds like the Whitestone Dome is getting accolades.
This S-view case will put me back on the hunt for a car holder.
My current Go Xti vent mount is too thin now. Or is my phone is too fat now?
While I did fumble my Note3 a few times, the S-view case protected everything except the corners of that phone .
The bezel corners are scuffed.
This Note8 S-view wraps around the corners instead of snapping to the phone itself.
I like the nifty built in landscape viewing mode!
Texture is classy, fit is perfect.
Buttons and ports accessible but now protected by being inset from case edges.
Cool perks to get free S-view themes too!
Am rocking the SATURnDay theme.
Yup, am happy with my Note8 S-view case.

Love the Alcantara!

I know these post are from Sept but we're just getting our Notes on Monday we currently have the 7 Edge never had a note. I use Symmetry and read good and bad reviews on Amazon. So buttons are easy to press and pen is easy to get in and out? Thanks!

Wow I'm commenting on a serval sorry but we have always loved the Zagg glass protectors up until the 7 edge came out we stopped. Had them on a few of our HTC's. We like the all clear and for the 7 Edge they had too much black or silver on the top and bottom this doesn't look bad with the little black how do you like it?
My husband wants a thin case like maybe Spigen he said but one with good protection. He used to use defender and Seidio's with holsters.
But I really want the Zagg glass if it works well and you our able to still use the screen good and it won't lift with me using a symmetry and whatever he ends up using. I like this one Spigen with a kickstand also. My friend told me to get pop socket ever heard of that?
