Incipio - DualPro® Case for Samsung Galaxy Note8 - Midnight Blue

I am very impressed with this case. It arrives very nicely packaged in a sturdy box with a slide out feature and a plastic piece inside for shaping and protection during shipping, as well as a product brochure. The quality of the material is evident, the fit is precise, cut outs are right sized, the S pen is accessible without struggle, buttons operate smoothly, the build is sturdy and protective and yet the case is very comfortable to hold. This is not the slimmest case out there, but it is slimmer than the bulkier of the cases out there which are harder form me to hold (Otterbox Defender, I'm looking at you). It's probably about the bulk level of the Otterbox Commuter, but that is just judging from descriptions and reviews as I don't own that one. There are nice raised bevels at the top and bottom so your screen is shielded a bit if placed face down. The side screen protection is about the best I've seen short of the Defender. I ordered an embarrassing number of other cases from various brands for comparison, so I'm fairly well-informed to offer this assessment. Now, I'm off to check compatibility with the Whitestone Dome screen protector... :) Oh, the box says 10 foot drop tested, see specs for drop protection details, etc. Full 1 yr. warranty.

It's when I got my new phone, the color is beautiful and the fit is very good. The only thing I didn't like about the case was the fact that it is very slippery. No rubber-like material anywhere on the case. It was all a hard plastic type material that is very slippery. A $900 phone that cost $200 on the insurance plan to replace, I don't want to drop it even if it does have a case on it and by drop it, I mean inadvertently let it slip out of my hands because the case has nothing to actually grip with your hands. I would recommend this to a friend because it does offer drop protection as well as scratch protection for the rear top, bottom and sides of the phone but it does not want to stay in your hands while holding your phone.

I really wanted something with a slim profile, but still offered a lot of protection. I used otter boxes in the past but they did not work with wireless charging. However, this case does!! Seems to protect the phone really well and is not too bulky. Great fit as well.
