Best cases - Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories

In your opinion what's the best S8 case?

I love IMAK cases, the cowboy versions!

I am somewhat disappointed by the fuss around the Mophie Juice Pack. I was thinking of purchasing it and got to the site and saw the Coming Soon icon. So I have to pre-order or what. Then I came across the I-blades S8 modular case. It is the same price and if I am waiting I would wait for this. It adds 64GB micro-SD, plus capabilities of attaching additional modules. Looks good, doesn't add bulk when it's not charging. Nice

today i got the Pitaka amarid phone case and have to say its wonderfull. very strong, ultra thin, fits perfect, grip is also good. almost like there is no case on.

That's a really nice case but pretty expensive for a slim style case.

Yes it is not cheap and i must say well worth the money, i was not happy about the samsung thin case because it was to slippery and also the spigen ultra thin fit is not that perfect for the same reasons as the samsung one and also it is not that thin!

I have the Otterbox Symmetry case. I'm very happy with it. It was on sale on Amazon for $19.

Supcase unicorn beetle

Just received this from amazon uk £6 and very impressed fits perfectly unlike IMO the ringke slim great protection all round quick video here
I got the similar one, but £12 - its got a rugged feel, adds a bit of weight (in a good way) - it has a feeling of almost granite in the hands. It will do nicely for general use until I get or need a expanded battery case.

jeez, you might as well have gotten a panasonic rugged phone
edit: ended up buying this anyway
How's the built-in screen protector? any touch sensitivity issue?
well it looks macho and protective enough. I can see how you baby your g3, the protective sticker on the button is still there!

Does it add much bulk compared to the ringke?

Yea I've ordered both.. Got the clear back one which was a bit more plus postage so it cost me around £12. Il return one but still gonna lose out on postage. But i like the look of the supcase more.. wasn't a fan of the one big cut out for camera and flash I preferred 3 separate cut outs but having seen your video I think it actually looks really nice like that.

Fosmon DURA-FROST TPU Case - Review

EDIT: Updated with pics of it installed now that my phone has arrived.
I'm not a huge fan of cases that add bulk to the phone. Over the course of the past 2 years I have grown fond of TPU cases as they protect all edges/sides of the phone while also not turning the phone into a brick. With the G3, I once again went on the hunt for a solid TPU case that didn't have the cutout on the top left of the phone for the expandable antenna that is not found on the U.S. version.
After doing some searching, I narrowed it down to a few different TPU cases but in the end the Fosmon TPU case seemed to be the best option. It's very cheap at only $5.97 with tax + free shipping, doesn't have the cutout on the top left, and has all the appropriate cutouts. I was surprised/happy to see that the back of the case is flat black while the sides are gloss (I missed this in the product description). It makes for a great look.
It arrived today and as I suspected, it fits perfectly. The cutouts are perfect and it's a nice tight fit all the way around. So if you are like me and enjoy the minimal protection TPU cases provide, I don't think you'll be disappointed with this case.
** I also installed a Spigen Tempered Glass screen protector as well (seen in the pictures). The case fits perfectly with the screen protector as well.

"Platinum" Hybrid Case with kickstand $39.99

I saw this at Best Buy, it's kind of pricey but it fit super snug to the phone and added minimal bulk. I was about to buy it. What do you think? It has the magnetic kickstand and also comes with the belt holster.

I had this for my note 2 , love the feel and adds no bulk

The case isn't bad but to me its kind of expensive. I have it currently but I don't use the holster. The phone also sits up off the table with the bottom higher than the top because of the kick stand and that kind of bothers me but thats a personal annoyance =) I do love the feel of the Ez Grip texture though, feels nice, and really easy to clean.
I bought this case n holster and I only use the holster. The case for me is to slippery. I got an lg circle case from sprint and fits perfectly with this holster.
Sent from my Black Lg G3
I got this case when I bought the phone simply because it was the only one available at BB. Have been pleasantly surprised although I don't use the holster. The grip is quite tacky so I feel comfortable when holding with one hand, yet it fits in a pocket amazingly well. Feels smaller in my pocket than my GS3 did with the body glove drop suit case.

The Platinum from Best Buy is just a rebranded version of the Seidio. I got the Seidio and love it.
I love these cases. My last 4 phones used these cases . Saved my butt several times from dropping onto the ground and grandkid(s) abuse. Use with care , screen protectors have a tendency to lift on the sides when putting on or taking off this case.
,,.................peace Brian
Looks good. But it's too bulky for me. But thanks for sharing
I almost bought this, but have Amazon prime & knew I could wait 2 days. I bought 2 cases, 1 being a Folsom case (I think it's Folsum) & the other, same idea, not sure the brand, but the second one uses the rubber flaps like over charging port. I also bought a 10 pack of skins. Of course it's really a 3 pack as I won't be using purple, pink, yellow etc. I prefer the skins as I'm extremely careful with phone. I use no screen protector either. Only spent about $20 for the total of 12 cases. Good deal.

TSCASE Brown Leather Case Review!

So I stumbled upon this case on Amazon when searching for either a nice leather or faux leather case for my S7, and I was sick of the only ones available being those portfolio cases that cover the front. All I wanted was a case that was either a tpu style, or one that reminds me of the Incipio Feather or Spigen Slim Fit where the phone just pops in but the tops/bottoms are exposed....well I found this Tscase brand case and this thing is honestly awesome.
http://www.amazon.com/TSCASE-Genuin...&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
The leather feel on the back is really soft and smooth, and I chose the regular brown one instead of the netted, although the netted looks cool too.

the nice thing about this case is that it comes up over the corners, so the corners aren't so exposed. the top and bottom are exposed, yeah, but as you can see in the pics the corners are fine.
there's also a small lip around the screen so placing it screen down isn't an issue. plus, it pretty much hugs the sides, so i'm sure putting a screen protector that goes edge to edge wouldn't be an issue with this case.
overall, i'm so glad i found a cool leather case for this thing, and for a fraction of the cost of what the official samsung one is going to cost! i recommend this case if you like a thin, leather, good looking case!
check out my album of pics here:

Look nice... what screen protector are you using

the 10 dollar verizon branded ones. they're meh. don't mind the top corner by the ear piece lol...when i put it into gear VR one day it ripped it up and although i'm OCD and it bothers me, i'm way too lazy to put another one on.
plus within a week of having it on, i got a huge gash, so these screen protectors scratch easily. and obviously the sides have that effect because the glass curves.
overall, i only got them bc i needed them day one.
Can't find this in Amazon Canada? Other than Amazon US/UK, anyone know where I can pick one up?
hmm not sure. maybe they just aren't setup to ship in canada? it's a really nice case, though.
I bought the same case and I absolutely love it. I'm interested to see how well it holds up and how it weathers.

it's a great case. i just got the spigen crystal screen protector that wraps around the edges of the phone, and it fits perfectly with this case.

I got the one below. It's very slippery so ordered the Case Mate. Don't waste your time. The fingerprint reader is unuseable with the Case Mate. Went back to the below for now..

But the middle flap protecting the hinge sticks out when the phone is open. Garbage.
I found the silver Samsung leather case but not sure I want to spend 115 bucks for a 79 case. I hope we get more choices soon. There are already more S20 cases and it has not even been released

I have the black leather Samsung case and I don't care for it. It doesn't clip as well as cases for other devices - it half clips and half "sticks" to the phone - but not very well. I ended up getting a dbrand skin for it instead, to make it less slippery.
I wanted a dbrand teardown skin but was not willing to risk the lack of a case. I put the skin on the case. Not bad..
The case is an Araree AERO from Amazon.
Looks super nice. Did you get the matte or original version?
I havr a clear case on top of my thom browne skin. Took me a while finding the skin. Lol. Cant afford the actual thom browne edition.
Forgot to add the pic.

Yes, it is...
Returned it for the clear Aero and put the teardown on the phone itself.
Ah, I thought the Aero was the teardown. The teardown is a DBrand? Thanks.
Hello, I bought Spigen ultra hybrid for my 5G - black around the edges, transparent middle, good cutouts, fingerprint usage ok also.
I wanted to show the color of my phone. I used to prefer clear, thin cases but after thinking it through, I don't want fingerprints or smudges, gloss look, or any "tint". I went with the matte. I haven't received it yet but I feel pretty strong about this being the best case for me. I want my phone protected but I cannot stand bulky cases.
