Customers commend the Folio Case for Samsung Galaxy Note8's high-quality leather, excellent protection, and convenient card slots. Many appreciate the ability to store cards and cash within the case, finding it a practical and stylish alternative to a wallet. However, some users note that the case may interfere with wireless charging and that the closure mechanism could be improved. The fit of the phone within the case is generally praised.
In general, the folio style is a good choice for some smartphone users, if we don't need heavyweight protection, and especially for the benefit of being able to stick cards, paper, money, etc., into it. When I compare this $50 leather Nomad case to the $8 vinyl one I have on my Note3, the cheapie comes out the winner in many ways. The point of these cases, as I said, is to be able to stick, say, three business cards, a Starbucks card, driver license, and a couple of receipts, say, into the pockets. I put about half of what was in my cheapie one in the Nomad, and it still doesn't really close! Furthermore, the cheapie has a magneted flap closure (which I admit can get in the way sometimes) which helps to secure it. So functionally, the cheapie works better. The Nomad smells nicer, and I can charge my phone without taking it out of the case. I'm hoping that as it breaks in maybe it will close better.

I bought this case three weeks ago when I bought my note8. I absolutely love this effing case...... the leather is just on point. It wears in great. Even with a bunch of scratches on the front of my wallet. It still looks amazing. The feel of a real leather case is great. I feel like there is less chance of a slip out of hand accident with this case. Now the retainer that holds the phone in....my god I love it..... feels very secure and snug as it snaps in. I have dropped this wallet probably around 5 times now. Not a single problem. Now as screen protectors are concerned do your self a favor and just buy a liquid screen protector with coverage for new glass. (And yes they are out there. Just not here) anyone who has a note8 and wants. Wallet case this is the one for you.

Very bulky and wireless charging won't work with this case. It looks nice and seems to be good quality.
