I have not posted here too often but I thought I would share.
I have done a bunch of product reviews in the past on my YouTube channel (mostly apple) but I am expanding my horizons :good: Recently I picked up 3 S4 cases (2 by Poetic and 1 by Exact).
Don't know if I can mention pricing here but they are super cheap and IMO good quality. The three cases are:
1. Poetic Atmosphere - this one is my favorite of the bunch. It is frosted clear, shows the S4, protects the device while not adding much bulk or weight. When comparing it to the iPhone 5 atmosphere case I like the way this one fits much better. It's easier to remove and feels very good in the hand.
2. Poetic Borderline Bumper - pretty self explanatory. It's a bumper but for people looking for a simple minimalistic approach it works.
3. Exact Armor - a more bulky case with a different look that will not be for everyone but if you like the design I think its a good protective case.
I don't think I can link to these here but if you search for them you will find my videos showing them up close. I did not do reviews of them since I don't have a real S4 yet. If you guys have questions about them please let me know and I can do my best to answer for you.
Pictures?

I like the poetic atmosphere case, but I cant seem to find it anywhere in the UK
I don't like the holes on the Exact Armor but I like the rest, maybe I'd consider getting it if it was available in europe
Here are the Pictures:
i'm ordering the bumper case during the week so it can get here around the same time my phone does
The amazon review says the volume rocker / power button is hard to press through the case, was your experience different? I like the poetic transparent one too
I ordered the rooCase Fuse case which appears to be identical to the Poetic Atmosphere. Amazon has it for $6 shipped. I went ahead and bought two of them due to the low price.

Welcome to our first Galaxy S4 case review. Up for review is the BoxWave Tuxedo SuitUp. For less than $5 on Amazon, this case if perfect for those who need a basic TPU case. And basic it is. Although the case it pictured with BoxWave branding on the back, ours arrived completely unbranded. The durable TPU case can withstand everyday bumps and drops, but if you work in rough conditions, you will probably want to upgrade to an Otterbox. At this price though, the Tuxedo SuitUp is an excellent case to have on hand.
This week we have a SPIGEN SGP Ultra Fit to giveaway! We will be giving away another Galaxy S4 case next week.

Darn, have to be in the US
Watched the video. It looks like a well made case. Strong enough to handle the worst of my ditzy moments. Goodluck to everyone & I hope I win :fingers-crossed:
There is a lot of video reviews of cases on YouTube. What I like to do though, is face off one case vs another and decide on a winner. What I've managed to do this time though is accumulate a good number of cases that I've spent time and real world use on. My plan is to face them off against each other in videos. Not all at once though. Instead I'm going to do a bracket in a tournament style until I proclaim the very best case. I'd like your input on which to put against each other (I'm also posting this at Android Central). They are the following cases:
Spigen Neo Hybrid
Spigen Slim Armor
Samsung Flip Case
Samsung Protective Cover
UAG Maverick
UAG Folio Flip
Seidio (Platinum) w/holster
Unicorn Beetle w/holster
Verus Iron Shield
Once I get some feedback I'll post the bracket and start posting videos over the course of the next couple of weeks. I'll be giving away a few of the cases when it's all said and done to people who like the videos or post comments on them.
Here's a pic of the cases that will be in the tournament.
Here are my suggestions.
Neo Hybrid Metal vs Verus Iron Shield
UAG Maverick vs Samsung Protective Cover
UAG Folio vs Samsung Flip Case
Waiting for your cases face off tournament. Good luck!
Glad to see the Samsung protective cover in the shootout. I really like mine.
I have the neo hybrid and protective cover. I think the protective cover is a way better case. Slim and offers some protection
Sent from my note 4 using xda app
would like to see them compared against the iblason armorbox if you have one with and without samsung oem qi covers fitted.
Great thread, for me, the most versatile case is the Otterbox Commuter Series Case. Overtime, the silicone on the Defender Series case expands.
OK, here are the match ups for the first round:
Spigen Neo Hybrid (Plastic) vs.
Samsung Protective Case
Spigen Neo Hybrid (Metal) vs.
Verus Iron Shield
Spigen Slim Armor vs.
UAG Maverick
Unicorn Beetle w/ holster vs.
Platinum Hard Case w/ holster (BB version of Seidio Surface)
Samsung Flip Case vs.
UAG Folio Scout
Hi fellow members it's that time again where I will be reviewing Samsung Galaxy Note 9 cases and screen protectors. Some of you will already know me from previous threads and forums on Xda.
I take requests and answer any questions you may have so feel free to ask.
Review of the Official Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Real leather wallet cover.
Pros;
Genuine Leather
Soft microfiber lining
Thin profile
Feels premium
OEM case so fit is great
Sleep wake function
Cons;
Price
Not fully protected sides exposed
Flip doesn't stay closed
Only room for 1 card
No led cutout
Camera cutout is too big
No stand function
This is the first leather case from Samsung and it is a good attempt, I have been using this case for a week and it has grown on me. It is made from genuine Italian leather which feels great and is available in 3 different colours, black, red and umber.
Check out my video review of it below if you require any more information or want to see the case in the flesh and feel free to ask me any questions.
Review of the Official Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Silicone Cover,
Pros;
Feels great in hand
Works with the whitestone dome
Good quality Silicone
Microfiber lining
Buttons easy to press
Available in 4 colours
Cons;
Price is a little bit too expensive for a Silicone case
Bottom is exposed
This case feels fantastic in hand, Samsung have used a good quality thick silicone which feels soft and doesn't attract lint. There is plenty of lip protection and the camera is well recessed into the back of the case so no need to worry about laying down on a desk. The price is a little bit too expensive for me personally especially since the bottom is open and exposed. If you want to check out the full review for a better look at the case the use the link below;
Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Spigen Case Line-Up Review,
I take a look at the Spigen case line up where I review cases like the Tough Armor, liquid crystal, neo hybrid, etc. Spigen cater to everyone's taste and these cases are responsibly priced. A Plus point is they all work with the whitestone dome screen protector as I have tested them. If you need to see more check out my review, I have time stamped the video to make it easier to get to the case you want. The link is below:

Yes, finally one of my favorite brands that hardly anyone talks about this side of the pond. I was hoping to get the Battersea line this time around for my Note 9. Was very pleased with the Piccadilly model when I had a Note 8. Thanks.

Gear gives better protection
Real Alcantara and Carbon fiber case for the Samsung Galaxy Note 9. This case is made by SCF also known as Simply Carbon fiber, it is a luxury case but it feels great. Check out the review here:
Pros
1. Feels great
2. Unusual design
3. Premium materials
4. Grip
5. Works with Whitestone Dome screen protector
Cons
1. Price
2. Not the most protective case
3. Shipping and taxes depending where you live
This case feels great and luxurious, it has enough lip protection around the screen and camera but it's not the most protective cover available for the note 9. The grip is excellent and the buttons are very good but could be a little more tactile imho.
I am in middle to decide which is better X Doria or spigen though Armor, if anyone has used both then please suggest
Guys, i need a screen protector from Aliexpress. Which one do you advice?

If only it weren't fingerprint & oil magnet, I would use this case all the time. Wondering if there's any case out there with the same thickness but different material.
How about samsung s-view flip cover? and cases from tech21? Can you please review them?
