- I went to Best Buy and bought up all the cases that I could find! There are some slim fit ones, rugged bulky ones and flip cover ones. Let me know if you want an online edition. This was only for in store. Stay tuned for the full Galaxy Note 8 review!

Can't go wrong with Otterbox defender series. I still have my Note 2 in pristine condition to this day, so its worth every penny. Upgrading to Note 8, on Friday.
FinestInstinct Wow. That is awesome! Might start using the defender on my S8+. I never really used it 😂😂
FinestInstinct agree
FinestInstinct I still have mine too
Pay day can't come sooner, I guess.
FineInstinct, just following up on your post from 4 months ago. I just bought a Note 8 and am having a tough time finding a case and a screen protector that I feel provides the best protection. Did you buy the Ottorbox Defender. What do you use to protect the screen? Thanks in advance!
First time I’ve come across your channel and definitely subscribing. I appreciate the extra effort when not only you show good case options but also how they would work with the fast charging pad. Thank you.
Ordered my case through Amazon and exchanging my iPhone 7+ tomorrow for the Note 8.
Thanks for this upload. I saw some video where someone straight threw the rugged Samsung case from about chest high onto solid floor, and it ended up perfectly fine.
Still more exciting than the iPhone 8/10
Thanks. I was trying to decide what kind of cases to get for my device. Ur voice is clear and very easy to understand!
Better review of the cases and functionality than some of the other ones on youtube. Well done, and very useful.
I just started watching your videos and I am enjoying the videos every time I watch them. Great!!! You are fantastic at describing the information you have learned about the phones that you review!!
I love your reviews and way of explaining everything in amazing detail! ❤️ ❤️❤️
Nice thorough video Erica! Really helped me settle on a few case options. Subscribed!
Thank you very much for this in-depth phone case review. I was really struggling to find the great design for the curved display phone as some cases look very cheap and awkward on it. Your review is amazing! It truly helped a lot. Thank you
The Samsung LED Case has been my favourite since it was introduced with the Note 4. I have had one for the S7, Note 7 and S8+ I have never had any issues with them and they are very durable. it's good to see a positive review here for the Note 8 version I have ordered.
Thanks, handy round-up of cases.
Probably best case video I've ever seen. Great work!
Great video. I have both of the Samsung cases which I love because they are "smart" cases, they turn the phone on and off. Don't understand why there are not more "smart" covers. The S view case is a fingerprint magnet so I find myself gradating to the led case. I love it, light and protective. Keep up the great work Erica
I always go with the Otterbox Defender. I use the holster often. I have never broken a phone in my entire life. I can TRY to break my phone by chucking it to the ground but with the Otterbox, it remains in mint condition. I have a Galaxy Note 5 that has lived in an Otterbox since it was born. When I take it out of the case it looks BRAND NEW. And Otterbox has a lifetime warranty, which the rubber does wear after about 2-3 years and I have never ever had a problem with getting Otterbox to send me a new one for free with the lifetime warranty after it start warping. One time I returned the Otterbox just because it was old and ugly and they still replaced it. I made my official switch to Otterbox after an electrician told me that he dropped his iPhone with an otterbox off of a 3 story building on accident and the phone was 100% undamaged. When you buy the defender version with the holster, the holster can also be double as a phone stand to watch movies or whatever because the clip locks into an open position when you lift it all the way. I don't know is Otterbox advertises this use but I kind of just figured it out myself and use it that way.
Alcántara in grey for me, love the unique suede style case!
This was a useful round-up and much more useful than a lot of the reviews I consulted that just praised every product because they'd been sent them free. I bought the Rhino Shield bumper, which I'm pleased with. Thanks for putting in the effort here.
Best review I have seen for Note 8 cases, thanks!
And you covered all the ones I am interested in, good choices of what's out there.
I am not sure you are aware of all the functionality of the LED cover, it does show notifications and you can even make custom icons for individual callers or use pre-made LED icons, a bit of fun there ;)
Supcase Beetle has been my go to case for my past few phones. It saved one phone from a fall from a roller coaster and it's still pretty thin/lightweight.
sugonmaballs also what I'm rocking for my s8 plus. Considering buying the alcantara case
@Self Made it's been 2 years bro lmaoo but yeah I still have the supcase beetle
I really love that defender series case! Not a fan of the whole belt clip, but I've owned many defender cases and I like that one better than the rest. Thanks for the reviews!
Hey Erica - I really enjoy your reviews. You have a good sense of the things people would want to know and you seem to be pretty objective in your opinions. I also like the fact that I recognize all or most of your outdoor scenes being that I have lived and hung out all over Snohomish County. Not really important, but kinda cool I guess. Anyway, Thanks for the Note 8 reviews.
Great review, thanks! I'm getting the ottobox defender
Awesome video, I'll probably be going for the LED case. I like how smooth it looks. The other flip case would win for me if the front couldn't get scratched so easily
Wow, such an excellent, excellent, excellent video! With the Otterbox Defender you would need to buy their screen saver separately to protect the screen. The Alcantara looks cool but does not look like it would have much protection on the device.
Great video, Erica! I used to use Otterbox Commuters for a long time, but then I got hooked on the DualPro from Incipio. That's what my Note8 has on right now. I would consider that LED Wallet Cover, though! It looks pretty nice! 😎
Very very informative as always thank you.
Since using one for my Nexus 6 and now my s8+, I have fallen in love with the Incipio brand cases. The perfect blend of light and protection.
Thanks Gary, its a good review. Hope to have the comparison of Note 8 and Note 9 later on. Thumps up!
Thank You Erica for the good review. It cracks me up how most people reviewing these flagships rate how feel in the hand without a case when most people I know buy cases for them.
i've had my note 5 in a otterbox defender series since day one and still looks brand new. I poped out that silly plastic screen protector and added a glass one, much more nicer.
Shift-Light
I already got the LED case yesterday before watching this and I totally agree with you on this case. Second best for me will be the Otter Box defender I will get that case at some point in the future. My go to day to do will be the LED case.
Nice comparison Erica! Thank you!
Please make a video for Note 9 cases!! Very informative, well done!
Thank you. I really like the Samsung LED Wallet Case. It's elegant and protects the screen. The Alcántara Pink case is very pretty as well.
Thank you very much. You just tested everything I wanted to know.
Watching this video is quite satisfying and relaxing.
All of your vids are excellent, Erica. That's coming from someone whose aren't! :-) I've a S6. You've whetted my appetite for the Note 8. I need to wait until the next price drop. And gawd knows when that will be. Anybody? Well done (again) Lassie!
That was very helpful. Thank you.
thank you, i am planning to buy a Note8 but wondering which case i should buy. You have surely helped me with this presentation.
the samsung wallet cover looks the best but i wouldnt pay their prices ,wait for amazon seller :)
LED view case is surprisingly well built and definitely worth the money. You can also control your music playback from the front of the case.
Erica thanx for the heads up on bumper case bought one today
The pink case reminds me of a Pink Pearl eraser
I love my otterbox defender case on my Note8 and use it on my smaller wireless charger from my note5. Well worth the cost.
Michael Thomas how slim is it ? I was thinking about getting it lol
I agree. I always go with the Otterbox Defender. They holster can double as a little phone stand.
Would love to see reviews of online cases - specifically the Urban Armor Gear cases.
Hi Erica... well done!
I just bought my S8+ in Dec '17. My Defender case is a bit different from yours It is thinner material and fits tighter. The port plugs were a bit tight, so I had fun searching for the USB charging port the first time... Yup, finally looked at the tiny instructions to find it.
The sides are different from yours, too. They come up a bit higher, so I don't see an exposure on the edges as yours had. Maybe they watched your video & took the hint!
I don't see an "S Pen" opening. I wonder if my phone has one. It took me a few iterations to figure out what you were even saying was there. "It's not you, it's me." I'm 70 and though the hearing is good, sometimes the understanding lags behind.
Thanks for what you do. Catch you in another video.
I just got the speck presidio grip at Best buy for my note 8. It's great!
I have the otter Box defender case and I love this case I had it for my S8 plus. this case is so durable I dropped my phone so many times it just works for me
I've got the really big otterbox case and I do really like it. I ride horses and I forgot to take my phone out of my back pocket before a barrel race. My phone came flying out of my pocket, landed in the dirt from what was probably at least a 6 foot fall, maybe 15 mph. And it's still in perfect condition. Even my glass screen protector was unharmed. Personally don't use the clip very often (I honestly don't even know where it is rn) the phone still fits well in my back pocket in jeans, fit a in my slim fit fanny pack for running and riding. If I don't have pockets it usually sits okay in my waist band even with the added weight.
Another banging video. Keep em up
Just ordered the RhinoShield Crashguard ! :)
Using the Spigen Tough Armor on my unlocked N8. Thinking of buying that Samsung protective case as well
I really liked your video... problem is Id like it more if you told us how much you spent on each... that would have been mega helpful!
The lip on the top and bottom of those cases are raised so you don't have to worry about the sides of the screen
Excellent reviews! I like your style and you do a great job of covering a lot of cases in a short amount of time. Sad that the Tech21 cases don't get much exposure. After evaluating virtually all of the cases on the market for Samsung Galaxy phones I have found them to be the best value and very defensive for drops and bumps. Fit and finish are superb and they really do withstand heavy hits and leave the phone unscathed. I would love to hear your reviews of the Tech21 line.
Nice work! thanks!
I had an Otterbox Commuter for my S7 Edge, and while it survived (literal hundreds) of drops, the thing that finally killed it was the screen's CURVE getting hit, cracked / chipped during a drop. The only thing that's probably going to protect the screen (besides a screen protector, but good luck doing that + a case), is a wallet case or the Defender facing the belt clip.
I have the blue otter box one, looks bad ass and is rugged as hell!
This phone looks so awesome! I have an iPhone 6 rn and I kinda wanna switch but idk yet
Almost a year later I am watching this because I am looking into upgrading from a Note 5 to a Note 8. I was going to get the Note 9, but I cannot justify spending $1000 on a phone. I have always used otterbox since my S3, because I am a horrible klutz who drops things constantly. I am happy to see an otterbox made the cut. I generally go for the commuter series, but the defender looks like it protects the screen a bit better on this model then the commuter does. Thanks for this great comparison video!
The UAG cases are really nice too
Dave Muscarella they're the best hands down I have the plasma, cobalt for the note 8
I love my UAG case super protective for a slim case
I got the samsung rugged case and love it. I wanted a blue case with a kickstand and it delivers.
tiburonroano on the fence about getting it really like the idea of a kickstand always having to prop my phones up wish it wasnt 40 bucks with so many decent cases only costing 15
my god, that sony phone.
Phone? That's a whole ass television
I have that phone ..to me it not that big
the screen is pmuch the same size as the note 8 too xD
that's a tablet with a sim card
a girl i went to school with had that one. damn near coulda commited a homicide with that thing.
like your reviews.thanks
I WANT THIS PHONE!!!!!!
jón krázíón lmaoooooo
sunsbookishgamesx wow really!?.. that's surprising most chicks want iphones
Love it have been using it for a week :)
sunsbookishgamesx I got it...wanna MATE 😉
sunsbookishgamesx it's a mini tablet with a mega processor.
Very good review.. Thanks
I have the Note 8 with the dark blue phonecase and it works perfekt. I really drop it often. I like on this case that it has a stand on the backside, it's really helpfull if you watch movies and don't want to hold it all the time.
Thanks for the review! If you decide to give away the samsung rugged case...keep me in mind🤔. Looks great. Just got the note 8 and was sent to Georgia to work storm damage. Loving the phone thus far. I haven't had time to do case research yet. This video was great to see the fit and finish of several installed cases. I believe the samsung rugged is the winner.
I bought a iBlasson case for my 8+ and I like it. There ist a screen protector built in and it has covers for the headphone and the charging port. I'll be switching to the note later this year and I'll buy their case again
Great Review!!!
Went for the otter defender
Sure to my job Intel.
Btw just subbed, more note 8 vids pls!!
Thanks for the video. I was worried about the Otterbox not working with the wireless charger.
Unicorn beetles are the best case. Awesome design, cheap (one for my s8 plus was 20 dollars i believe), really good protection but also keeps it slim. Id definitely check it out.
This is like the 100000000 note 8 case video I'm watching :P
But there's something cool about these videos that make me keep watching em.
Really love the LED case!
nice review, the s-view is my choice and first thing I get with each new phone for years now. as far as "loosing screen off memo" you DON'T just pull the pen out then open the flip it will already be in screen off memo and it stays there.
Awesome review, Erica. Already have one of the cases in your review, and I love it. I chose the "wallet" style case by Samsung and it works well for me and my lifestyle. Looking to get another, more rugged case for daily use, since this phone is my "daily driver", probably leaning towards the Samsung rugged case with the kick-stand.Thanks again for the great review. I have found the information very useful.
UAG case also a nice case...my favorite case is otter box case, the lease is Samsung wallet case.
Thank you for nice video
used like uag until the glue came off now I got a flimsy case 😑
I'm getting this phone in a week or two and this video really helps
Clayco hera is good but adds bulk and you'll lose some sensitivity on the touch screen due to the built-in screen protector but not much. Worth it if you're prone to dropping your phone. I also have the Samsung rugged case and I think I prefer it. Keeps the phone slim and has kickstand. Nice grip to it as well.
Because I like my phone on my waist, I always choose an Otterbox Defender case for the mainstream phones I use. I don't know if there'll be generic leather pouches for the taller phones. But seeing this case comparison makes the phone huge with a case on.
The extra material on the top and bottom is to protect dropping it on its face
If it drops face down, it puts extra distance between the screen and the ground
Unless you drop it on the side edges which is highly unlikely
For "rugged"cases add the Invisible Shield cover.
708k subs?! Great work!
Otterbox FTW.
Used a Defender on my Samsung Galaxy S5 before and it made it very big but very well secured.
I hope you can make an Otterbox (or any shockproof case) review for the S8/S8+ as I'm planning to upgrade my S7 Edge to that soon. TIA.
I have a Tech21 case on my v20 and I absolutely love it
The funny thing is that your top two have been my top two favorite cases for the S8 Plus.
Also the defender case belt clip can be used as a kick stand when belt clip is fully opened
Another two more day till I get my note 8 cannot wait! I might pick up the Samsung rugged case ?
Thank you for the video...helped alot
My friend accidentally dropped her 3 days old note 8 with protection casing but the screen at the curved edge side still cracked. Only 'wallet type' casing with front cover can prevent damage to the curved edge.
Thank you... the Samsung Alcantra did match your nail color ;-)
I love my S view case but i will buy led case also ;) Nice review!
FYI - If you pull the s-pen out before opening the Samsung cases, the screen off memo works fine. Good review.
Awesome video! Are you able to put on a skin from Dbrand and have the Rhino Shield Crashguard on without any problems? Thanks.
So actually, I've had my note 8 for about 7 months now. I've found the tech21 cases to be best for me on it. Best protection. I went from an otterbox defender. My main complaint was wireless charging. Smile it worked, the heat produced from the phone and or the pad warped the rubber on the outside, making it off and uncomfortable to use. I RMA'd 3 cases from them before i swapped and i have not looked back done. I've had the case for 3 months and it's been amazing
So many great cases out there that fit just as well and cost a lot less.
Do you have a screen protector and if so which do you recommend? Led wallet looks good, I'm following now Looks trusty.I would also like to see Amazon products , sometimes I don't have time to go out too best buy over the next city...🤘
You should check Spigen cases. They have all different types of cases for pretty much every kind of person.
I needed this
I recommend incipio cases, got one with my note 8 and never have had a case I didn't like and they offer great protection
