Samsung Official Clear Cover

This is the case that is referred to as a "Bumper" and doesn't in any way cover the screen but does provide a bumper to all the edges and has a cover on the back.
It is £19.99 on Samsung's store (and elsewhere, although this appears to be the only official case not being sold by amazon currently).
I have just ordered one and wonder if anyone else has one, or considered it?

I bought the black protective cover from Samsung. It's more of a smoke cover but looks almost clear on a black device. It provides very little protection from drops but I'm usually pretty good about not dropping my phone. I like it better than the alacantara case. It doesn't go over the buttons either which is kinda nice because you get to feel the click better but doesn't offer any protection for them.

I ordered one for my Note 8, just shipped on Amazon and waiting for delivery in a few days. I have an orchid gray phone, but it seems I accidentally ordered the black one and only noticed after it was shipped. Anyway, I'll post some pictures of it when I get it here, I only considered it because I really liked the clear protective case from Samsung for the S8+ but I couldn't get that then so this time around I wanted to try an official case.

Yes, please do let us know what you think of it, I've got a spigen case with the stand but it feels a tad too bulky. Considering ordering the official sanding slim case. I couldn't tell from the pictures if it covers the top and bottom of the phone?

Ugh, I hate waiting, but Amazon seems to be taking extra long with this one (well, not really Amazon, but crappy USPS). From what I can tell of the generic picture on Amazon of the front of the device, the case covers all sides except the bottom where it's got a sort of opening for the headphone hack, USB-C port and S-Pen slot.

The official Clear Case has arrived, I ordered from Samsung directly for £19.
I am really impressed. It is certainly more of a "bumper" case, with most of the protection being on the edges of the device. It is lightweight and isn't clunky when fitted so the Note 8 still looks good with it on.
It has a plastic cover on the rear so no scratches etc when placing it on surfaces.
Obviously it doesn't' protect the screen, but you know that when ordering this sort of case.
My first impressions are it is worth the money if you want a case that primarily protects the edges and doesn't add weight or bulk to the device.

£15 at Amazon.
I like it as it preserves design.

Does it cover the bottom of the phone enough to prevent scratches? As in, are there cut outs for the ports or is the whole bottom just open?

Recommended cases to protect the sides of the screen as well

Hi
No matter how hard I look for covers, I just can't find any cover to adequately protect both the phone and it's screen sides.
The cases I found so far seems to either adequately protect the phone (Samsung's Protective Stand Cover is the best I found so far but won't adequately protect the sides, what if the surface is not flat?) or questionably adequately protect the screen (wallet type covers like Spigen Wallet S, Samsung official LED Cover and more).
Is there any case that would adequately protect both the phone and its sides?
If not, what would protect it the best?
Maybe I am wrong but I don't think I can rely on screen protectors, they've failed me in the past.
Thanks!

I am doing a search for cases with raised edges. The only decent one I have found so far is Encased Rebel. Don't listen to excuses like "raised edges would decrease edge function". Ask for proof that case edges are indeed raised. The Rebel has edges raised like half a milimeter above the screen. Not much but it is the most I found so far. With a glass screen protector (Whitestone) it is not raised anymore but almost level with the "screen". All the rest I tried leave edges exposed.

Thanks!!
This is the first case I saw with raised lips on all edges, It doesn't really look good, is there any other option?
Do you think that wallet cases may do the job?
EDIT: btw, the buttons of the Encased Rebel case aren't good at all.

I haven't found another option yet. Waiting for another case, then I will give up and let the perfect one find me. To me it looks good enough and I don't mind the buttons too much.

i just want to stay in this thread. i would happily give up edge functions to have a lip that protects the screen along the sides. i just wish there was an option that was also considered "slim" not a fan of bulky cases, let alone bulky cases on a phone this large.

I did you guys a favor and ordered every note 8 case I could find that: *did* look like it might protect the edges and *did not* make me cover the glass or various ports.
I tried:
Spigen Tough Armor
Encased Rebel
TILL Knight Armor
WallSkiN Turtle
Zizo Static
Zizo Bolt
- The Encased Rebel is the only one that truly comes up above the edges at all.
- I had read that some of these tougher cases can break the phone just putting them on, so I was SUPER careful applying each of them... and I could see that if one were not careful, some of them would put a LOT of pressure on the phone during installation. Because of the way the hard shell part of this case comes in two pieces, it did not scare me putting the thing on - yet the hard part does stay well attached to the rubbery bit once you have it on right the first time.
- I don't have a problem with the buttons on mine, but I am careful to make sure the case's button bits are properly seated over the actual phone buttons. If you just slap that baby on, you may have a problem.
- The case isn't bulky
- Cordless charging works fine with this case
Last week I dropped my newly "encased" phone hard while running and while the corner of the hardcase broke, the phone was fine... I called that a win for now and just ordered another one.
AS for how it looks - I love purple EXCEPT for this particular color of purple. I tried to order the navy one but it is sold out. I can imagine that either the navy or black would look pretty good, but my husband has the same phone in a black case so ... I'm sticking with the somewhat lame purple for now - in order to keep peace in our little cellular community.
I figure in a few months I'll do another search to see if a different manufacturer has served this obvious need.
Thank you to @notefreak for your recommendation.

Got the N8 last week. I'm still looking for a good case that would give decent protection - not a fan of the tank cases. From the reads so far - the Patchworks have done a good job wrt to the N8.

Get Rhino shield. I have dropped a couple of times and it really protects my phone from all sides.

Search for venoro rugged note 8 case on amazon. This case definitely protects the sides of the note 8 but it makes it bigger. It doesn't go above the screen but it is quite a bit wider at the sides. It is a bit slippery on the back also. When you get it, it seems pretty cheap and seems like it would not go together correctly. When you snap it together with the phone in it is when it feels sturdier. Cheap.

Just take care of your phone and don't user it like a hook for climbing. I recommend the one provided when you buy the phone.

Having to. Dropped it one time, device is fine. What i don't like is how the buttons feel and work. Could be better.

Ghostek ultrafit 2. I have had Ghostek for my Note 7, S7 Edge and now my Note 8. They are the only case I could find that actually has the sides that come up higher than the display. Buttons and everything works great.

best thin case note 20 ultra with grip

I find most cases get slippery on the sides.
I had speck in the past but it was OK any others that you recommend thanks

From what I've seen so far:
1. Spigen Liquid Air - Seems to have some good grip potential, especially with ridges on the sides. However, the gap around the camera bump is an interesting design choice...
2. Samsung OEM Matte Black Silicone Case - Seems to have a decent grip on the matte finish and very minimal.
3. Pitaka Air or MagEZ Case - While I haven't used them myself, I've heard good things about the grip/feel of the Ipitaka cases.
I'm personally going to try the PItaka MagEZ case when it becomes available (Aug 21st) since I like the idea of having embedded metal so I don't have to stick a scosche metal piece on the back of the case.
Also, just a heads up. According to some initial reviews on the new speck 'grip' cases, they're using a more plastic-feeling material for grips instead of rubberized and people are not happy about it. (I previously used them as well)

I switch phones often, but one thing that remains constant is my Pitaka MagEZ cases. Have purchased well over 10 of them at this point. Wouldn't choose any other thin case

The "Air" series cases generally don't rise above the screen.
They do have a thicker "Pro" series option with a raised lip to protect the screen, bumpers on the corners, etc.

The cloth one does as well since there's a slim silicone band along the edge.

Yes I've seen the one the only concern I've read it's a little difficult to remove the spen.. Your thoughts.

I will never choose Pitaka again.
Edges are rough and the upper part could have covered more
But I especially won't because it damaged my Note 10+ because of a defect in the inside of the case that made a grain of sand sized hole in the back of my phone.

Been using the Zizo Bolt on my Note 10+ for over 6 months. Excellent grip, usability and protection.
Kick stand doubles as a grip; either fully retract/extend it to keep from losing it's pins, if not secured in either position they can work their way out in your pocket! No issues with this case otherwise.
The one for the 20 seems to come with a temper glass screen protector; that may not work so well.
That's not present on the one for the 10.
Presumably you can use it without and substitute one one your choice?
Damn the 20's cam has a big bullseye on it... no likey. Buying a good case for the 10+ was very hard early on, no doubt the 20 U will be harder to protect

you know i never thought trying to find a case was going to leave me so hard pressed. note i do not mind the camera bump one bit. but they could have rounded out the camera hump a bit more. not the corners, but where the surface meets the edges and also they could have slanted the sides a bit more angled. who knows they did pull it off pretty good.
still on the camera bump.
note: with JJNUSA leather case you will be covering the mic on the camera bump. if that is a problem for you look elsewhere for a case.
i have received 200 in incentives to order goodies when i got my phone pre ordered and used it to order a few cases.
cases i ordered:
samsung rugged: bulky, heavy, don't like the texture on the back and flimsy kickstands that shoot off when used
samsung leather case: upgrade from last years, 2g lighter. seamless, but warps at the bottom. good cam protection.
samsun silicon: unsure if food grade safe. and slippery as glass
-other cases-
spigen Rugged Armor: oddly best all tpu case with carbon fiber accents. the back is slippery if trying to reach across the screen. side bumpers have one way slip grip and flimsy. camera is well protected. pen cut out too deep corner exposed but covered. top /bottom bumper good but top may block ear piece. 2g heavier then jjnusa leather
...now my official review of the JJNUSA Handmade Leather Case...
NOTE i used amazon prime
don't let the first pic they have on amazon throw you off, but what bothers me is the video they added to the product and it is of the s20 ultra; the camera lens is so scratched. i am still baffled how they did that. then again we will see in due time, because i can not stand the samsung leather case(which got me hooked on leather cases oddly) it is too slippery. the jjnusa case has tpu sides and saddle leather on back with plastic on the inside that the phone rests on. but i will say the leather on the back is so soft i think it sorta makes up for the lack of suede like the official samsung case has. then again the leather is so thick its' edges pop out the mold a teensy-weensy bit, but i doubt with proper use and not picking at it it will survive for a long time. with the 5% off coupon i also got another 1 usd off(who knows if it was the amazon prime). so for 19.95 it is a steal. most other leather cases are $30+. a steal; why may you say? hold on let me get to the rest of it. if we all remember the lg g4 leather back it was a looker. that was it, because it scratched easily and punctured easily. then we go onto the samsung leather case that scratches easily with minimal show. further more i can not say what that will mean over long term usage with this case from jjnusa. treat it lightly and it should be fine. now back to the leather on the jjnusa case. the leather reminds me of the type you get on a saddle and does not separate from itself. that is a plus. but a minus if the antiquing they use comes off very very easily?, and it does(con or not?) i had a cane that had antiquing and it turned my hands black, but after it leveled out it was fine. you know they always slap so much on to fill in the design that almost certainly more then half they put on will rub off. i have rubbed off some already. hence it would not rub off like wow, i had to use my nail. no way does it show like scratches on the samsung leather case. either way the extra antiquing will no matter what fade away over time and settle down to where it should be. i still think it will look good. at the same time the leather is much more scratch resistant then the latter. and the design and the look really grew on me. now on to the sides. the power button and volume are labeled with symbols and i like it even though i will never look at it. what else i like is that they are tpu like the rest of the sides. the tactile of the buttons are sturdy then again not too stiff not too mushy. then there is a bonus or an achilles heal; you move down the same side as the buttons and find a wrist strap punch out so you can add a wrist strap. have not tested it, seems like it should be worthy of use and not fearing. the bonus is removing the phone from the case, it does not shoot out like it does with the samsung leather case does. still it holds it in better. this is where i tell you that the jjnusa case has way better screen protection that leaves a better feel in the hand. the samsung leather case has a squidgy spongy top and bottom. the bottom is already warped and i never used it; i just put it on a few times and took it off. also a fail for the bottom bumper is the difficulty to remove the spen without nails. the jjnusa case is cut out just right and since it is thinner and more stiffer in a good way you can press your thumb or finger and hear that satisfying click to eject it. with that said the top and bottom bumper are raised higher then the samsung to protect the screen. the samsung case is more flush and flimsy.
i am a happy camper and if it fairs well i will update to 5 stars from 4, but i am really thinking at the price to slap down for another. as we all know leather cases do not last as long as other types
the reason i gave it 4 stars is i never really heard of JJNUSA till i saw them on etsy.com and since they where based in china i thought meh. then i thought to ebay's third party cases and said but leather? does not smell much like leather, oddly that is how saddles with the same type of leather smells. or it could be the antiquing they used and the shipping package. it was not shipped in a box or cheap plastic, it was in a cloth sleeve in a sealed padded envelope. JJNUSA do claim Oregon origins... yeah right etsy.com says ships from china.
i have played around with plenty of cases and phones in cases so it's not like i only have really had the note 20 ultra... just do not get one of them ultra thin all tpu cases. i have one for my lg g4 and only really protects the sides and back. busted the screen.

I have already dropped it having it about 3.6 feet drop going swap when it landed on its' back side. my heart sunk, but the case did its' work and saved it. a plus for the case. it was not dropped it was knocked down from a propped up position onto a hard wood flooring

My review of the official Samsung leather back cover.

When I purchased my device from Samsung USA they gave me a $30 coupon which I used to off set this overpriced "back cover "which retails for $50 plus.
My thoughts ? Feels good, little to no protection of the screen but that was expected. Camera lens area is raised so protected. Top and bottom has a slight raise , sides of case sit lower to the sides of the display, thus zero protection. There are some characteristic defects in the case, like stretched leather areas on the corners due to manufacturing which is worth pointing out to the OCD massive.
As the name implies , it's a back cover , so don't bother with it if you want to protect your device from a drop. The leather smells good and feels good. The inner liner is a suede like material.
7 out of 10. For those that want minimilsm and comfort, not recommended for those that are vegan or want drop protection.

I am really satisfied with this case. I was using the original leather case from Samsung on my previous Note 10, but I have only had this case on my phone for a few weeks and I found the leather on two corners started to wear out. The version of this case for Note 20 Ultra seems to be more solid and still looks like new after using it for more than two months.

Same set up as me. Bronze N20U, black leather case. Mine definitely held up better than my previous set up. Blue Note 10 Plus with official Samsung red leather case. That case had so much wear in under two weeks that I returned it, Samsung gave me zero issues in doing so. It is actually the reason why I chose black this time around. Samsung definitely increased their quality.

The brown leather looks really good with the bronze N20U. The leather case was my favorite, a close second for me was the Pitaka case. I love a quality leather product, Samsung delivered just that. Has a nice texture inside and out and just the right amount of thickness.

I had this leather cover for about 2 months. Leather finish is very good, but I found it to be kind of losse on the bottom, especially on the left corner (near the stylus).
In fact, all the slim covers that I tried for Note 20 Ultra have this problem since on the left bottom corner are concentrated too many holes: stylus+speaker, resulting in poor grip area.
Right now I am settled at Spigen Thin Fit, which is very slim and provides excelent adherence to the phone due to TPU margins (new design).

Mine discolored terrible after about 2 months

Cool, but as the all formed models, all their accessories do not exist to buy.
