I can't seem to find anyone with this case. No reviews or actually picture of the case besides the advertisement images on Amazon.

I have the VRS one but I find the bumper too thick so it makes it harder to handle the phone. Feels like I'm on my note 4 again. Trying to see if the Spigen is the same. Also I can't tell if the Spigens kickstand is just taped on the back or if it's actually sitting in a cutout hole on the back of the case.
I ordered one of the spigen kickstand cases but I haven't received it yet, they've been backordered according to there site, mine shipped today, so I'll check how they attached them, and reply with those results when I get my case.
I just got mine today. I think it's pretty thin. As for the kickstand, it's definitely glued on to the hard back and not dropped into a cut out. The stand is fairly flat, about as thick as 1.5 quarters. I don't feel it when holding the phone because my hand is a little bit cupped. The top and bottom of the case is raised a little so the screen doesnt touch the surfacce when laid face down. So far I like the case. For 11.99 shipped, i think its a great deal.
Thank you. That's what i was afraid of. The VRS kick stand is in a cutout so the stand is very low profile. But the bumper is thick. Probably a good 3mm all the way around. That is why im looking at the spigen one.
Here are some pictures of how the case looks like when it's on the phone. I also put a quarter side by side with the kickstand to show the thickness of it and a picture of how it looks when the phone is lying on its back.
Thanks for the pictures! Here is the VRS one.

These guys make the best cases in my opinion ( their wireless charger is great too) and I went with the one with the built in card holder is 50% off:

Thanks but a bit pricey. I think for now I will stick with my VRS. Looks like it's the best option for case with kickstand. Thanks everyone for all your input!

I ended up getting the Ultra hybrid case without the kickstand and adding the kickstand myself. On amazon, you are able to add the kickstand for free if you purchase the spigen case. It made it nice since I had the option where to place the kickstand. The case was 9.99 when i bought it w/prime shipping. The raised bump from the kickstand doesn't cause any issues with me and is actually nice to have when holding the phone I have found.
How do you add it to a 3rd parry case. Does not stick on? Is it removable / moveable?

How did you do that? I prefer to add it myself too so I can put it higher. Don't want it to interfere with my wireless charger.

So I just add both to cart and when checking out it gave me $9.99 discount. Cool. Thanks for the tip!

You can at it to a third party case or even the phone directly if you buy it separately on amazon or directly from spigen. It is not movable once mounted though so make sure you know where you want it before sticking it on.

Sorry its on my phone with a wet apply screen protector and I'm not moving it, its not pushing up my case atm. But if you hit up spigens site or amazon.ca you can see it ... the kickstand is the thickest part.

Also I must say the black case on silver looks awesome. The floating effect is nice plus I allready had black magnetic plates for my car mount and they match the case .

Got the spigen and separate kickstand but I did not like the spigen case as the sides tapered into a point at the center. See attached image. So this makes it a bit weird to hold since it isn't flat or rounded off.
So I ended up buying the ringke fusion. Much better case. And I have cut a hole in it for the spigen kickstand. Having the kickstand at the center is much better. I can tap on the top left or right corners and does not tip over. Unlike the VRS with the kickstand on the bottom. My mod is more flushed so it doesn't interfere with the fast wireless charger.
Here's a close up of the ringke. No sharp edge.
Here is my mod which I need to redo as my dremmel slipped and scratched the case.

Sorry about another "case recommendation" thread, but my question is a little different.
I need a case that can be removed relatively quickly due to the phone not fitting in my car dock if there is a case attached. I really want the Otterbox Commuter case, but unfortunately it would be a hassle to have to remove it and put it on every time I want to use my car dock.
So, any good case recommendations for the Skyrocket which can be easily and quickly removed?
you have the seidio "surface combo" (case+holster). the bottom of the case can be removed as necessary.

I ordered a SEIDIO surface case/holster combo (AKA Best buy Platinum Series). Had one on my Captivate and it was a breeze to put on and take off.
I'm currently using a cheap tpu case I bought off ebay to use until the Seidio became available. It's really easy to install and remove also.
I bough this one...

That first one you linked to is the same one I got off ebay for the same price. I wonder if it's the same seller?
Decent case though. Easy on/off and slides in and out of pants pocket without dragging/sticking like some silicone cases do. Matte finish doesn't show fingerprints/smudges either.
Otterbox Commuter Series is the only way to go!

Yeah. I've used that series on my last three phones. My Otter for the SR came yesterday and I'm quite happy with it. It comes with a screen protector like my others did but that wasn't specified when I ordered it from their site. I bought an invisible shield when I bought the phone but haven't installed it yet. I can probably return that to Best Buy for the $20 or $30 it cost me. I have one on my 64G iTouch and I'm not sure it doesn't have a negative impact on the touch screen's responsiveness. Make sure you get the Commuter. They make three models for this phone. The Defender is kind of obtrusive. I generally only recommend them for extremely klutzy people (ex-girlfriend) who I KNOW will drop the thing at least once a day. The low end is just a gel slip over that's worthless.
One thing I like about the Commuter is, it makes it much easier to push the power button without accidentally turning the volume all the way down which has happened several times. Who thought putting the power button opposite the volume rocker was a good idea? There's a reason they are almost always on different axes.

The Defender adds some size. The Commuter adds very little despite having a thin gel inner lining under the hard outer case.
been pretty happy with my sprint case, modified with a dremel
also got these off of ebay and they are a perfect fit.

Love the platinum series from best buy. got mine yesterday. Adds the least bulk of any case I've tried. Matte black, hard rubber feel.
Just saw this pop up on Amazon so I ordered a smoked grey one.
I loved ringke cases on all my nexus phones. Very good quality. I have the Samsung flip cover case, generic hard plastic case from eBay, and the Incipio dualshine pro case. I prefer the wallet case right now. The hard plastic case from eBay fits great and keeps the phone super slow and sleek but provides almost no protection.
The Incipio is a tad bulky since it's dual layer protection.
I'll let u all know how the ringke is.
Here's the link.

I went through two already the bottom left corner of both of them were warped. It fit and felt good everywhere except the bottom left ...good luck with yours.
My bottom left is warped also.. other than that case is good

Mine's expected to arrive on the 1st. Never used this company before but seems pretty slim so shouldn't add too much bulk. I don't drop my phones...seriously! My concern is scratching while sliding on a hard surface.

This Ringke case is nowhere near as good as the similar model cryatal case I have for my note 4, as you can see it only has a 3.5 star rating on Amazon. It has a feel of a $3.99 case. But right now there are only a few cases to chose from, so what can we do.
Really like the ringke
Here it is with full screen protector on
Decent case
I received my case on Saturday and I am pleasantly suprised with it. I needed a case because the UAG case I ordered has been put on back-order. I received the smoke edition and it gives my phone (black) a sleek unique look. I've read a few people had warped cases but mine was fine and provided a good snug fit. Case doesn't add bulk to phone and fits my hand well. Keep in mind it is a gel case so it wont protect the phone from a lot of drops but is an excellent case for me until my UAG case comes in. In addition it was only $12 and free 2 day shipping.
Here are some pics of the case you requested.

I don't know about anyone else but the top of my phone doesn't fit securely into the lip of the cover. I can literally run my thumb across the top of the case to separate it from the phone. That's means big trouble if I dropped the phone. If you get this case you still have to be wary of damage if dropped because no way it'll will stay in this case so this should be temporary until you can get a better case ASAP. Really a shame because Rearth cases are normally pretty good.
Just got mine. Very impressed. Great case. Fits tight. Highly recommended.

Love the concept and look. Got mine last week, power button doesnt line up, spen cant be pulled out inless you pull up on the case directly on top of the spen, ir blaster doesnt line up, barely holding the entire top lip. This thing is worth 2 bucks if that.
One good thing i wrote them an email and they said that i received a fluke and they sent me a new one today for free claiming it will fit better. We shall see and i hope so cause i really like it especially how nice and slim it is.

sounds like you got the same "flukey" case I got, but I didn't even bother contacting them I just chunked it in a draw and put the incipio case back on until I can find something thinner that'll actually fit to use. Maybe I'll give them a chance to redeem themselves with a replacement case.
I had a ringke case for my Note 4 and the first one was warped on one side. Clearly an issue they have. Replacement was excellent.
Quick update . Have had this case for a week now and I have no desire to order anything else except the flip wallet. Nice and tight and feels good in the hand. $13 is a good deal for this.

I am a long time Otterbox Defender user, but am considering the LK and MOKO cases you listed. I also am really interested in the Supcase Unicorn Beetle Pro. There is this I-Blason Prime Series as well. Also Seidio say they are working a case, but have not said what model.

the i-blason is just about identical to the moko, but the one for the nexus 6 last year used a plastic that i found to be VERY slippery in my hand. i tried it for about 2 weeks and didn't like the feel at all. the supcase is interesting, but i don't need an integrated screen protector. would rather use a nice tempered glass solution
one addendum to the moko (and i-blason) that i forgot to mention earlier...it still has this design issue where it's made for left-handed people. the phone attaches to the belt clip in the opposite way that a right handed person would use it. it's definitely not a show stopper, but it's annoying. i'll use it for the next couple of weeks and report back, but aside from this it's quite solid so far

I got this one for now, emergency purchase. It is terrible. REALLY bad. The kickstand isn't bad, but only 2 corners are protected by hard material. Hard to get in and out, and worse, as far as I can see you can't push the volume buttons because it is flush with the hard plastic they made the holes in.

Technically it rotates so it can be used vertically or horizontally. Though using it horizontally might be a bit annoying. Horizontal ones are my preference but since this is a big phone a vertical one would be less awkward and feel better for me. I got the case in today. I'll let you know when my phone comes.
after a couple of days with the moko case its...ok. it is 100% absolutely designed for left-handed people, which is annoying. also, it takes quite a concerted effort to both unclip and clip the phone into the case. most of it i'm sure is due to being right-handed, but it's also a function of the fact that the part you insert into the holster first has a pretty tight fit. also, the really soft rubber has quite a bit of give when inserting and removing which is also annoying. feels like they could have used some less compliant rubber here. idk it's ok for now i guess.
i've ordered various normal cases (spigen, ringle, diztronic) as well as the seidio iphone 6 plus holster (new version) to see how it works based on the reddit post. that guy never responded, but from his pics and from looking at the specs of the various items i *think* these cases would fit in the holster fine. my only concern is the part where the spring clip touches the phone. it's going to be very close as to whether it rests on part of the case or on the glass of the phone itself (which would be a no-go for me). we'll see...

also, if anyone's interested, my seidio iphone 6 plus holster is arriving thursday, which corresponds to when both the diztronic and ringle cases are supposed to arrive. so we shall see about that...

Ringke Fusion + iPh6+ Surface v1 holster = no go... at least not that well. The phone is too tall (flipped both ways). The latch is propped open about half way.
Going to test out my buddy's N6 Surface holster in a few days. Failing that, might have to just go with the full 6P Surface solution if they ever come out with it...
that's pretty shocking. isn't the ringle a pretty minimalist case? i don't have much experience with ringle but i would imagine it can't be much taller than the seidio surface case. the nexus 6p is nearly identical to the iphone 6s plus, there's like a 1mm difference in height. hard to imagine this would cause what you're describing. unless...maybe that's what the seidio revision from v1 to v2 was about? to allow for additional height for some reason?

Upon closer inspection, there are 2 "feet" on the bottom/back side of the case, about 1mm thick. This is causing the phone to not hit flush bottom of the holster. About 3-4mm gap from bottom of phone to bottom of holster.
Even if it were to sit flush bottom, it's still 2-3mm too tall.
Width-wise it's a nice fit.

Mine isn't here yet but I have that same case on my lg g3. That is hard stiff rubber and plastic parts. No give.

I have the Seidio N6 Surface holster. I used it with my N6 and the Supcase hybrid for the last year. I tried it with my 6P, and same thing that the 6P is too tall. the hinged latched it also propped open (N6P with the Ringke Fusion and the Supcase Hybrid)
Hey,
Whats the best recommendation for a nice feeling case that also has a stand? Ive seen Spigen tough armour but it looks a bit blocky
Samsung rugged cover. Many people are opting for the rugged cover over their usual favorites. @ $40 it is pricey but worth it.
Reminds me of a deck chair though. I adored it on note 8 then they did all them weird lines on the back
Those lines really aren't as bad in person as they seem in photos. They actually make the case quite easy to grip in hand.

They're subtle in hand. Look aggressive in pics.
Samsung's rugged case is my absolute favorite! To me, it even helps with one-handed reachability! Highly recommended!
I like this one from Samsung:

I'm afraid all the cases with a stand I've foud will add some bulk.

I like the Seidio Suface case, these are due to ship out 8/31
https://www.seidioonline.com/shop/?device=galaxy-note-9&style=surface
I personally use spigen tough armour. May look blocky but good protection and build in kick stand help to overcome that problem. Let's just hope they will release slim armour soon like for last few years...
I returned the Spigen Tough Armor, and kept the Samsung.
The stand on the Spigen has the volume buttons on the bottom, so you can't change the volume when using the stand with them.
The Samsung can be placed either way, and even in portrait mode.
OEM case hands down, best they released so far.

Umm, tough armor can be placed either way too. Don't know how you came to the conclusion it can't. I was kind of skeptical of the OEM Samsung case being in the middle but OLED reflectivity made that a non issue. I used my V20 in my tough armor case mostly and the offset stand came in handy depending on chair and if I slouched or not. Being offset made it user adjustable basically.
It can but I don't see why most people would want such a shallow angle. I've owned Slim Armor cases for at least half a dozen of my phones and I've never once used the stand like that.

It's all relative. I bought 9 cases for my Note 9 totaling well over 150 dollars in the past year trying to find the right one. I'd rather spend 40 on one case and never have to worry about it again. It's not cheap, but I've not seen one better in stores.

The tough armor packs the kickstand on the bottom right side of the phone while looking at it. If you were to try to use the kickstand with the volume buttons facing up the phone is laying nearly flat lol.

Yes. Good position if you're sitting at a desk and looking down as if you were reading.
I ordered this as it was really cheap, just 8.99. It's called the Orzero TPU + PC Hybrid Dual Layer Case, and I love it! The ring in back rotates so if can prop up the phone in both directions although landscape is pretty shallow. It doubles as a device to allow for one-handed operation by sticking a finger through the ring, freeing up the thumb to wander anywhere without worrying about dropping your phone. Downside: made of metal, can't use wireless charger with it on. I use it when I leave home and am not going to charge wirelessly anyways. I bought another case with no stand for when I'm at home.

I ordered the rugged in silver it's coming today lol
I like the Samsung rugged case
at first, it didn't look good alone in the package when I was checking it out at bestbuy, but they had some marked down open box. So i picked up one, it actually looks great now with the phone in it, seemed to give some protection to the phone and have a stand...

Hey folks, I have a qi fast charging magnetic charger (linked below)
I tried sticking the ring to the outside of the case am using but after a few weeks of on/off the magnet it came off. I also had the ring under the case but it's too thick to stick reliably.
I'm trying to find an ultra thin case that won't look warped when I stick the ring under the case, or maybe even has a cut out inside the case for the plates you can get or the ring, and is thin enough to stick well on the charger
Suggestions would be awesome!!

I have that same case and I have a metal place stuck to the inside of it for my magnetic car mount. I can't see or feel the plate. I'm not sure if my plate is the same thickness as your ring.
100% get the Rhino Shield Bumper Case. Amazing drop protection (I've dropped many times on all sides, including front and back, with no concern) and keeps a super thin minimal design. Back is completely open. Pairs perfectly with dbrand skins on the back!

I used to have a set of pitaka accessories for the note 8 and I loved it. Not available for note 9 yet though..

I'm loving the Spigen case!!
I've been using OtterBox for my last two notes. I really like the Symmetry model on the Note 9. Great protection and not too bulky.
I'm using the Armadillotek case and it's great. Feels very comfy and offers drop support and protection.
I'm using Spigen Neo Hybrid + Liquid Crystal Clear, spigen cases are awesome!

Is wireless charging working with the Spigen cases? On reviews of Amazon they say not. Is this true?
Accordingly with this video, is OK
Official Samsung cases.
Well... I'm using the Samsung clear case for my Note 9. It's very thin, but also a very tight fit so I'm not sure how it'll fit with that ring. Also you'd obviously see the ring.
Does that ring not scratch the back glass?
I will recommend Speck to anyone with a Note 9. Presidio grip is amazing

I can answer this question: yes. I tried a Spigen case yesterday and it worked well.
I bought this, it is on sale so, and I love the wood back plate, bonus you can attack lenses, still hasnt arrived so...

When i bought Note9 i knew that i must buy some tough case for it, this is most expensive phone that i`ve got so far and protection before look. So i was wondering about lovemei or lovmei cases, you know, 6 screws, big metal case that you can use also as self-defence, car lift, surfing, scateboard (just attach wheels ) and for space shuttle heat cover. But you know, NFC payments, and wireless charger - this is very important for me. So i manage to find one case that costs lot for me, and i bought it with little bit of fear, but what i`ve got... I`ve bought SUPCASE CLAYCO XENON. It covers both sides of phone, it is little bit tricky to mount but effect is brilliant! Phone looks very good in it, it is not as bulky as i thought it would be, first impressions was not so good because of stylus experience at screen. When i try to work with stylus i felt resistance between tip of stylus and screen but after few hour of phone usage everything came to normal. I think that screen cover was just extremely clean and as soon as i pick up few calls surface was back to normal experience. So - if anyone want to have best possible protection and want their phone to still look good and not so bulky this is answer.
