Very dissapointed Spigen isn't making a glas.t for Note 2

I just installed the Spigen Oleo plastic protector, and while it's a good as such go, it's no glas.t. I had the Glas.t on my Note 1 and loved it.
With the Oleo (and I'm sure other covers would be the same) the pen moves very roughly, not at all what you'd want if you are taking notes and want accuracy.
Very disappointed. I'm sure the reason is the complaints about edges not sticking and such... but if they'd simply include 2 in every package, like with the plastics, there's be less of an issue with returns. I loved mine, no issues with edges.
If any of you feel the same please make your voices heard with Spigen so that they might reconsider and produce the cover.

Any we needed another thread for this?

Now i did read this thread but i dont remember if anyone asked. Isnt the Galaxy S3 screen curved like the Note 2? I asked Spigen if they were making the screen protector and they said the curved screen is why they are not making it.

Yes the s3 has a curved screen. I believe they had problems with the s3 glass screen protector thats why they chose not to make one for the note 2.

After using the Spigen Oleophobic screen I'm a lot less concerned about the lack of the glas.t. The spen slides over this protector like glass as it is, so no real need for the glas.t after all. Happily surprised.

they did it!!
actually they finally made one for galaxy note 2 and it's very expensive!... check the below link:-

i remember they did release glas.t for note 2, but they all had some weird sensitivity problem. thus they have decided to not make anymore for the note 2. but i could be wrong. or i remembered it wrongly, and the sensitivity issues were for the s3.

They have never made one for the note 2 and aren't going to. I emailed them about 2 to 3 weeks ago.

I think mobile fun had then "coming soon" for quite some time now.
swyped all these spelling errors from my galaxy note 2

here is one that I have found

I already ordered the one i posted, The price is 1/2 that of the link. I also emailed the person from the link if this is a all clear version without colour boarders, the item is for pre-order, so it's not finalised yet.
my photos are the actual stock, so it seems like it will not affect the sensors.

Would like to test this out and provide reviews. I am currently testing a couple of your other cases too.

I would like to see something like the Lifeproof nuud. Nobody makes anything like that. I hate cheap plastic built in screen protectors, and believe Gorilla Glass 4 is good enough for most screen protection on it's own.
It's edge drops and water in ports that can do most damage to phones I believe.
In case you don't know what the nuud does, it's basicly your case with a gasket against the screen instead of a plastic screen protector on the front.
I bought a Sup case that I removed the screen protector from the front, and the camera covering from the back. It's OK, but buying something would be better than having to mod a case.
Thanks.

I'll try one out

I'm interested as well and I'm curious to see how an otterbox type case will function with the Note 5.. Will contact on Facebook for coupon code.
Thanks!

I am always willing to try a new case. I am currently using the Otterbox Defender so I would be able to compare your case to the actual Otterbox Defender.

yes

Already have your other model on the way but if you want more testers, absolutely.
Btw, I just got a 5ive branded case from amazon and while it's protective, it also weighs a ton. Be interested in seeing what you guys came up with. If I missed the freebie, I'll still buy one.

Would love to give this one a try,

Hi only request/suggestion is to make an international shipping possible. As i am do interested in purchasing one for myself but no luck as it doesnt ship to SG.

Hello, I'd love to give your case a try and do a review. Thank You

so has anyone actually received a coupon code yet? after I posted here I sent them a facebook message, they responded that I needed to like their page, share their page, and before I use the coupon I needed to put the case on my amazon wish list, which I did. But they never actually sent me a coupon code LOL. I've messaged them a couple more times about what else they want me to do to receive this code and get no response now. kinda bogus. Guess you could say customer service is already in the crapper.

Try the coupon "artech50" I used this coupon a while back and got 50% off. It's a nice case, very very sturdy

I would like to give it a try if still available. I have sent you a Facebook message. Thanks.

I see there are only 17 replies to this offer. I would really like an opportunity to write a review for your product.

I requested to test yesterday morning and got the code by FaceBook early this morning. They apologized for the delay as they have been busy. Seemed like a legitimate response.

Yes, they finally got back to me with a code, but it was after I asked to review another one of their cases, not this one. which kind of makes me sad, I really wanted to give this one a try. But I won't complain, at least they finally got back to me.

rhinoshield crash guard

Is anyone planning on getting this case? I got one for my OnePlus 3T and did not like it, I've read that they have improved since then though.
Anyone get it for the s8/8+? How was it with that?

I had one for my S8, and I have already pre-ordered one for my Note 8. I've used these since I initially got an S6, I think.
They're the best. I use them when I go hiking, play sports, or go out drinking. They improved them quite a bit for the S8 (in fact, they did a free replacement from v1 to v2 for my S8 case) - they fixed the difficulty of hitting buttons, which was my biggest complaint for the Pixel version I had.
They also recently sent out an email about improving the material for the Note version. It's now something like 40% smaller?
I really hope it's compatible with my Whitestone!

That was my biggest grip about it with my OnePlus was the buttons were impossible to press.
I'm waiting to see if it's compatible with the Whitestone as well before I pull the trigger on both.

Mines came in today.
It feels great in the hand.
It is slimer the the s8plus one i have (had ver1)
Buttons press is very good. My s8plus one was a bit hard at time.
The bottom where the ports are are soft and dont dog into my fingers.
The spen slot is open more on the right. It lets you press the button and then use a right finger to pull it out.
Overall its great and worth the money.
I havent done any drop test, because thats not what i do.

Mine came today to and yes it works with my Power peak product tempered glass screen protector perfect. But I'm not doing a drop test on my $1000 phone

Just received my crash guard. This is a very minimal case. The buttons are tactile. It's very easy to put the case on. There isn't much give on the side when you pull it so it stays on pretty tight. However, The case itself is a bit slippery.
Screen protector I am using is the Spigen neo flex and it is compatible.

It's a great case, seems like it'll provide solid protection. My only complaint is that the lip is not raised much above the screen. So if the phone falls screen-first, it will shatter for sure

Hey, I have the same case for poco and redmi note 5 pro, noticed that the case on note 5 pro is smooth on the sides whereas the poco case has a bit of raised edge on all sides, where back n front come together.
Could you please confirm if your case has the same design style/issue?

The case is actually amazing. Been using it for a few days. I'm disappointed with the small bump to protect the front. One thing I absolutely love about the case is that the phone feels more comfortable in hands. People have complained that it feels more bulky (that's how it should be), but for me the handling seems better this way and yes, I do use my phone with one hand for most of the time.

Hey, similar opinions about the case, no issues with one handed operation too, except thr different styles of construction that I observed between this and other Kapaver case for note 5 pro.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold2 5G Indian Thread

Planning to order Samsung Galaxy Z Fold2 5G as bookings open on 14th September 2020.
https://news.samsung.com/in/samsung...artphone-that-changes-the-shape-of-the-future
The fact that it comes with a 865+ Snapdragon processor is an huge added plus.
Any other Guys looking to book this?

Battery life seems to be surprisingly quite decent. A video on the YouTube shows 6 hours 57 minutes Screen on time with 4% battery left for usage from 10.00 am to 11.00 pm.

Galaxy Z Fold 2 vs Note 20 Ultra: Battery Drain Test!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glb-...nel=PhoneArena
So, battery life issues of Galaxy Z Fold 2 seem to be more of a myth and battery life looks good. A video on the YouTube shows 6 hours 57 minutes Screen on time with 4% battery left for usage from 10.00 am to 11.00 pm. The only limiting feature of Fold 2 is a missing SPen.
One more concern is better cameras of Note 20 Ultra, but reviews show not much difference except the zoom capabilities and the difference does become visible when images are cropped. Yes, Ultra has better Cameras, but Fold 2 looks pretty good in Camera department. A per many reviews, low light photos of Fold 2 are better than Note 20 Ultra.

I have used the original fold for a good 2 months didn't have any problems.
The main reason to buy fold 2 is bcoz of front bigger screen, hinge , SNAPDRAGON 865+ ( thankfully no Exynos)...and as far as cases are concerned my store guy is telling will get the original ones one week after launch..and for screen protectors for outside screen we can search on Amazon..

Nothing available on Amazon India as of now. No covers and no screen protectors. Do let me know if you are able to find any accessories online.
I am sick and tired of the normal form factor of mobiles and so looking for a change with this folding phone. Snapdragon is great & performance/battery life gets greatly enhanced. The reviews are really positive on the new hinge too, so overall things are looking good.
Would be booking Mystic Bronze at a Samsung Experience Store tomorrow afternoon.

Booked Fold 2, Mystic Bronze colour today at a Local Experience Centre. Expected delivery date is approximately 26 to 28th September.
