Recommend slim case that will not harm digitizer - Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories

I just purchased a new Note 8 and looking for a slim case like the original cover or the poetic case on amazon.
But reading about the magnet got me concerned. Can someone recommend a good case that will not harm the note? Something inexpensive hopefully. I do like the sleep/wake feature but concerned that it will destroy my note.
Thanks for your help.

I'm using this with the tempered glass screen protector and it fits/works just fine!
And it's only 10 bucks.

I bought this one...no magnets, works great. The only negative is that pushing the volume and power buttons are a bit awkward, but I think if I cut out the little plastic bar that encircles it, it would be perfect. However, it's not enough inconvenience for me to "get right on it."

Looking for a quality hard back..

Hey guys, I want to find a hard backing for this phone (because hard plastic feels so much better in the hand than gel case.. right? I haven't actually tried both out but I feel it would) but I want something that won't interfere with the edges of the front of the phone. Does anyone know of any cases like this or can you sell me on a soft backing that would again not interfere with the front experience? Thanks

Most cases have a lip along the sides that affects the curved corner of the phone. Havent seen any that don't actually. That being said, I'd reccomended the Nikon or ringke slim case now that they have fixed the issues with the early batch of cases.

Another vote for the Rinke Rearth SLIM. It's a fine case. It's very thin and makes the phone totally not slippery if you get the matte version. It feels good in your hands and will help protect the buttons from damage too. There isn't a ton of protection from drops as the top and bottom sides are pretty much exposed, but it's more or less what you are looking for short of some sort of thick back protector that sticks on like a screen protector.
Second on the nillkin, tho i would fancy the ringke if i was in the US...

Which case do you prefer?

My mom wants me to get a case ASAP because she doesn't want me to break my phone but I have no clue which case to get.
I don't want anything bulky, but something that can protect my phone well, maybe not as good as a otterbox but still protective.
And I'm looking for a case that has a good white design to match my white frost S4.
Can you guys recommend me some good cases?
Thanks in advance!
Oh and I've seen a couple that I like but there isn't any feedback on them.
Here they are:
http://www.amazon.com/SPIGEN-SGP-Samsung-Galaxy-Premium/dp/B00BSXXOC4 (not enough protection)
http://www.spigen.com/galaxy-s4-case-neo-hybrid.html (some people say its bulky and feels weird)
If you guys have any of those two above, can you please leave your opinion on them!
I would recommend either the Urban Armor Case or an Otterbox Commuter. The UAG being the slimmer one but they both give excellent protection. Some people might think they are bulky but to me bulky is like the Otterbox Defender or the Cygnett WorkMate.

They look like they can survive a lot of drops lol, but its a little to bulky from the looks of it but thanks I'll keep this case in mind!
What? The Neo Hybrid is in no way bulky. The first link you posted should provide sufficient protection unless you're going to be dropping the phone everday.
The neo hybrid isn't bulky, but it does add a little thickness to the phone. I got used to it quickly though.

I would say the most noticeable for me has been the overall width i.e. from left to right.
Definitely a beautiful case. Just had a lengthy phone conversation and the added width did make it a bit uncomfortable to hold.

The neo hybrid is a fantastic case.
Only drawback is that the holes do the charge port and the headphone socket are so precisely engineered that they only take the original Samsung parts.

Just got my white neo hybrid case. Love it on my white s4. Didnt have a problem with my other chargers in the house like everyone seems to be experiencing. Only grip (not sure if its just mine) is the power and volume buttons. They seem very stiff and cant tell if im pressing them or not. Hopefully they just need to be broken in.

My buttons on my neo hybrid are clicky. No difficulty pressing them here. It is fairly light weight.
As I stated earlier the only noticeable thing for me has been the increased width of the phone. I guess if the outer band recessed a bit more into the tpu case it would feel a bit better. Not a deal breaker though.
Sent from my SGH-M919
Did a bit of reading around I'm seeing/reading nothing but praise for the Neo-Hybrid. Decided to go with the Dante Red for my White S4 =3.
I'm going with the white version of the case! Thanks for helping me decide guys!
Oh and i have another question about the neo hybrid case. Can any headphones fit in the microphone port? Like the end of my headphones, it doesn't go straight out, it goes to the side. Not sure how to explain it
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
I had the Neo Hybrid and sent it back next day, did not like it at all.
Got a Incipio DualPro in black now and love it. Looks nice, buttons nice and responsive (Neo Hybrid was way to responsive, the lightest touch and the volume was going up/down..), ports big enough to support all usb/audio cables and adds a decent amount of protection without being overly bulky (imo).
Will probably change to the Incipio OVRMLD once its released.

[SF COATED] SPIGEN SGP Samsung Galaxy S4 Case Protective S View Cover

UPS just dropped this off 5 minutes ago. My first impression is that this is the best case for the gs4 for people who want a cover style case. This is the case that Samsung should have made for the gs4. It definitely mimics the curves of the gs4 very well. It has generous port openings that looks to even fit third party adapters. It also has the it blaster port opening. The headphone opening fits all of my headphones such as the vmoda m100, audeo phonak pfe232 and velodyne vpulse. The hinge is made of plastic but this case definitely feels high quality.

Yes you can fold it back all the way. The screen on the case exposes the camera. If you want the camera totally unblocked, then hold the cover halfway open.

Got the black one yesterday and loved the way it looked but shipped it back immediately. I thought "smooth black" would actually feel smooth but instead its kind of rough and almost sticky. Dust and lint immediately stuck to it before I even got the chance to pocket it. The texture was similar to the way the inner casing of otterboxes used to be (after enough complaints about dust and lint sticking to it they finally changed the material to a smoother, more dust free material).
Based on the reviews it seems like that white model is different? If so I may go for that instead. Otherwise the case is pretty slick.

Received it today; first impressions...it fits like a glove, but it's easy to put on.
The silicone is the inner shell so it doesn't attract any dust. The plastic outside shell has a nice texture and isn't slippery. The only rubber parts which can be seen are the"enforced"edges, which serve the purpose of protection and makes sure that your screen never touches anything when laid down on its face and a narrow ring around the screen. The case however doesn't have covers for the ports(usb, camera, headphone and speakers) I had the idea that it would come with a screen protector, but my dead brain cells must have misunderstood the description. It comes however with a protective cover which also serves as a stand. It feels sturdy and with it on, your note is well protected, it makes however quite heavy like a brick.
The "phone"still fits in my hand, but that is without the cover attached.
All in all I'm quite satisfied with this case it will protect my note well and the design is not too shabby either.
I'll give y'all an update in two weeks.
Cheers my friends.

thanks for sharing your impressions and the pictures. i am very tempted to pick one of these up myself. I got a simple/cheap flip case to hold me over temporarily, but to be quite frank, I am too damn clumsy not to invest in more serious protection for my electronic devices.
Note 8 is my first case, so was curious how such a sturdy case felt on the device. Ballistic basically won over my loyalty two smartphone ago...had the equivalent case on my Atrix, and one day while running to catch a bus my phone fell out of my pocket and when flying, slammed into the asphalt of the highway/street i was running across hard enough to bounce three times and make it halfway back towards the other side of the street. I was horrified, went to retrieve it... not one single scratch, not one sign that anything had happened, just nothing. Those massive corners do their job, is all I have to say...
Hoping the case for this device is as reliable.
I can highly recommend this case, after two weeks of using, it has been nothing but good to my sweet note. The case and the stand feel sturdy, and when the note is my bag, the cover protects the screen...good stuff and a hell of a lot cheaper than the otter box.

When you put the cover on the back, the hole is a cutout for the camera.

Has anyone noticed the case puts too much pressure on the back of the tablet. This is causing white spots to appear on the screen. Looks like LCD mura, but goes away when you take the case off. I've sent Ballistic an email, maybe mine is defective.

The S View screen is actually a bit useful. Add my mod and you get music controls! (Shameless advertising)
However, whether it's worth it at the price is something else. I have a Samsung black one and it got scratched a bit easily (could be cause of the car mount though), and I'm tslking about the front side, the material is a bit torn in a way.
Take a look at the Spigen Slim View Armor, it's what I'm thinking of next.

Not really worth the expensive pricetag. Doesn't offer protection. The s view window thing is quite cool though
If you are using TW roms you will love it. It works really well with calls (answering without opening the cover and really protects your screen scratches in your pocket etc. It is also more likely to prevent a screen crack after a drop that a case without any from cover (even with a screen protector on) withou affecting the size of the device that much. It does make your s4 feel a little larger (the back is not as thin as the stock cover. On the other hand have its own back cover means that it doesnt really matter if it gets scratched.
The downside is that is leaves the corners and sides unprotected which can scratch quite easily.
I've been using it since the day i bought my s4 and i love it. Am now using it on PAC ROM using s-view hatdroid app from playstore. (which works better that expected and has music support for apollo) and i can even answer calls like TW roms by enabling glove mode.
Spigen Slim Armor View all the way. Buy directly from Spigen... anywhere else its a 99% chance you get a knockoff. Learned that the hard way.
I love the screen protection it provides. And I love S View. Makes it great to just glance at the time, answer calls, snooze the alarm, etc without opening the case. And it seems the case provides very good protection without much bulk.

Hey, i just posted this in its own thread..but i picked up an S-view at Tiger Direct for 29.99...had it marked on the shelf from 59.99.
I didnt think it was worth it for $60, but for $30 i figured what the hell.
Does the S View cover have a magnet? Or just like the Samsung Flip Cover which is utterly meaningless?

I've had the Spigen Slim Armor View case since it came out, and I haven't had any problems with it so far. I even have the wireless mod inside the back cover, and it still fits over it without any problems.

Does the S View cover have a magnet? Or just like the Samsung Flip Cover which is utterly meaningless?

Its a great case if you can get it cheap, just make sure you don't order a fake one, like I did first time round
I have it and love it! I don't really use it for protection, but more for style

It does have a magnet but only to lit up the screen when the cover is open not to retain the cover close.
