The Official Samsung website only lists the S6 as a compatible device but does the S6 Edge work too? I just ordered an S6 edge and really wanted that case. Can anyone confirm if they tried or have an Edge with the S-View cover please.
If it doesn't work with the edge does anyone think they'll make one down the line for the edge? Now with the clear view confirmed as scratching screen they'll probably have to pull them out of the market.
They are available:

That link shows an incorrect listing. They are showing Clear View cases (which exists for both S6 and Edge) not S-View cases.
AFAIK there are no S-View cases for the Edge, only for the normal S6. And no the normal S6 S-View case won't fit the Edge.
I have no idea why they don't release S-View cases for the Edge though. The S-View case is the only one that is normal S6 exclusive. All the other cases exist for both Edge and normal (Clear Case, Protective Case, Clear View Case, and the Flip Wallet).
EDIT:
Ok looking through some of the listings there seems to be some 3rd-party manufacturers who have made S-View and Clear View type cases for the Edge. However, the reviews on them don't look good. Ie. apparently they are just a case, they don't enable the extra functionality that comes with the real S-View cases.
There's security NFC chips embedded into the real Samsung cases that are meant to prevent counterfeits. So unless the 3rd-party manufacturer is officially licensed from Samsung or they've somehow emulated the security chip, you won't get the extra functionality out them. It'll just be a dumb case like any other dumb case.
I guess we got to wait for an official S-View release. Samsung is investigating all the complaints about the clear view cover so they might ditch it completely and go for an s-view cover.
The same problem with the S-View Cover , scratces under the window , a lot of them..... Talked to Samsung which admits they had a few complaints about this today.

Hi Guys,
Trying to buy a wallet or a card holder case for my work phone so I can also have my work access card embedded into the case.
Kavaj has listed their s6 edge wallet case on their website but the image is of the S5... does anyone have real pics yet?

When wallet cases come to mind, I think of the Damda Slide by Verus. The rest are mostly flip covers, which are pretty nice, too, though I don't personally like flip unless I'm around more posh people.
Spigen sells two general types of wallet cases to my knowledge, but they don't seem to sell ones for the S6 Edge. Either way, one has cards coming upwards from the middle of the case, which I think isn't very well-designed in terms of real-use scenarios, while the other has your cards exposed. Your options are pretty limited when it comes to card-carrying cases, though the Damda is honestly nice so long as your phone matches the colour of the case well (a few of my friends have one).
I second that regarding the damda slide case. I have the red one on my white s6 edge. Looks great,feels great and functions great! I have my DL, debit card and Disney pass in it.
Too bulky for me. And I really want something which feels as premium as my iphone 6 official leather case...shame Samsung are not creating a premium case

Great case. Shows off the Edge design and provides basic protection. Also makes it easier to hold the Edge safely.

can we get some pics of the KAVAJ?

Does anyone know if there is an S View cover or equivalent for the S6 Edge? It seems like there is an S View cover for both the standard S6 and the newly released S6 Edge Plus but I just can't find one for the standard S6 Edge. I love my Samsung S series phones, I just wish they would introduce some consistencey when producing accessories.
I did find a 3rd party case that looked like it would be what I wanted, but although it has an S View like window, it is basically useless...doesn't wake the phone when opened or put it into standby when closed and has no S View display functionality.
Hoping the folk's on here might be able to recommend something.
Cheers,
Rich
There is not. There's only a Clear view cover case, but that scratches the screen, so use a screen protector!

Hi!
I bought a S View original case cover for S6 and fits perfectly into my S6 edge. The phone detects its because in settings appears the option accessories and allows me to set the background of the window or the information that I want to show. But not working. I know that it is not for the S6 edge, but if the phone detects should works.
In addition, if there are a S view cover for S6 edge + and S view cover for normal S6, but there are'nt for s6 edge I thing that the reason of this is that the S6 S view cover will be works in a s6 edge.
Any solution? Maybe it's a failure of firmware?You are solved with Mashmallow?
Thanks.
I've been using my S7 Edge for about two months. The phone is great, but I'm really disappointed with the Clear View case.
The right side of the phone has marks and scratches that, in my opinion, is produced by the poorly designed Clear View case.
The front cover will not fit/cover the phone perfectly and keeps sliding up and down when it's closed.
I have noticed that the S6 edge had the same problem, and that Samsung verified that the case could make scratches.
It's pretty obvious that the case is a terribly designed product. It's the most expensive Samsung case, and it's a shame that it obviously hasn't been better since the S6 Edge version.
Does anyone have any experience in what Samsung's customer service can or will do in similar cases?
It's for sure that won't accept anything but a screen replacement.
Hello all,
There doesn't seem to be a lot of choice in terms of cases for the Tab S6. All the cases on Amazon have a cut out for the stylus which makes it stick out and they don't cover the sides of the tablet either.
I like the Samsung case but it's too expensive and more importantly for me, does not cover the sides.
Please post your recommendations here...
Thanks in advance

I've yet to find a third party case that has a cover system for the pen too
I've gone with the official book cover with a 10.5inch sleeve to put both in when it's in my bag etc. All of the ones on eBay, amazon, aliexpress etc all have a cut out for the pen which you will 100% lose the pen at some point. Following this thread incase someone has found one.
Until I decide on a case with a pen holder—doesn't have to accomodate the pen slot, and I don't have the keyboard—I've just Dremeled the camera lens slot of my S5e case to make it bigger. So, I might just get an S5e case with a pen holder and do the same.
@TiTiB do you know if the S5e cases fit the S6? I would be looking to do the same if it does.

I like the official keyboard case

I preordered the poetic rubberize shell last night, I also like the samsung keyboard case for travel
There are a couple of options on Amazon that cover the pen.. though in a different way.
The main cover comes all the way around and then flips over a couple of inches onto the back to cover the pen cut-out.
They are a keyboard cover but the keyboard can be taken out as it is connected via magnets.

https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B07XH2HJ15/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_apa_i_dYrJDbAWE61EZ
I got the Poetic Rubber case yesterday. It's a much better case than it was for the s4. It fits tight, perfectly edge to edge of the screen and I love the extra retainer for the pen. This case works great in DEX mode or if you are not using the hidden nav options. You can easily hold the tab by the edge of the case in both portrait and landscape. The only issue with the case is that it makes edge swiping a little difficult. It does add a little weight, but holding in one hand is not an issue.
Moko Folio Case, Logitech K480 Keyboard
I also have been wavering about what case and finally decided to by an inexpensive Moko Folio for about $10 while things sort themselves out. It is a typical folio feature-wise with the exception that the S-pen slot on the back has an elastic cover up about half the pen and makes it much more secure while letting it rest in the magnetic slot for charging.
For a keyboard (lots of people seem to be reporting lots of problems with the Samsung keyboard) I am using a Logitech K480 which I already own and use with other tablets. It has three-position switch with retains bluetooth parameters for three-different devices, keys with decent feel and a slot to put the tab in to hold it up. It also comes with a semi-hard case which has a padded slot in the front cover for the tablet (even with the folio cover).
It's still soon so I will keep watching...

huh? the s5e case does not fit the s6 very well at all.
when I used the Samsung s5e book cover on the Tab S6, the rear cameras did not fit within the S5e case hence the s5e case was not attached securely with the magnetic attachment.
if you cut out a larger hole in the s5e case for the s6 cameras, then it might be better.

The S Pen is based on electromagnetic resonance. I assume the company wasn't cognizant of how a separate magnetic field could present a problem, which is unfortunate. This case's styling is perfect, so hopefully the design will be altered.

I got this case too ($13.99) and I like it. I even put one of my silicone nose pads (small size) on the case's S-Pen flap so that I could more easily pull it open.

I have tried a few cases and this is the best one I could find (and previously recommended on here) and it was a reasonable price. It’s nice and light and has a place to store the pen to stop it getting lost. The cover also activates the wake sleep when opening and closing.

I keep my tablet in a pouch when not in use along with a good little Bluetooth keyboard which I have used on previous tablets which is also really well made and has a built in trackpad and comes with its own sleeve, again this is reasonably priced.

I also have a Microsoft Arc mouse which I was given and as that folds flat it also fits nicely inside the sleeve I have

I went with this from Amazon
Infiland Galaxy Tab S6 10.5 Case, Multiple Angle Stand Case Fit Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 10.5 Inch Model SM-T860/T865/T867 2019 Release, Support S Pen Wirelss Charging, Auto Wake/Sleep, Gray
Upgrading from the S6 and wondering if the keyboard trick works on the S8. The S6 keyboard stuck on with suction, thus you were able to use a tpu bumper and have the back kickstand stick onto that. I cut off the left edge to all the keyboard to connect. Basically this setup provided additional protection all around while still using the stock keyboard cover. Anyone test a similar setup on the S7 or S8? I believe the S7/S8 keyboard is magnetic? so this may not work. Still haven't gotten my S8 yet, due next week. Already picked up the keyboard cover and was going to order a TPU but wanted to see if anyone tried it yet. Rather not order if it's not going to work. Not sure if the magnetic cover is strong enough to attach thru the TPU.
