Samsung Diamond Ultra Smart View Wallet Case Cream

Awesome leather case, I've had it for 2 years and it still looks new. Super high quality!

Good, extremely clear and hard. No yellowing at all. It is a bit difficult to take off, need the correct technique to lift off from the bottom

I always go with a Samsung case. I just like that the phone recognises it. This is not as sturdy and protective as my Samsung clear view case was on my S8 plus but I look after my phones anyway. Samsung definitely compromised on quality with this one. I’m not planning to drop the phone while hanging out of a window 10 stories high. If that sort of protection you are looking for, this case is not for you. It is substantial enough to protect from dropping it on a carpeted floor. I haven’t dropped my phone yet to test this though. The case is a nice fit, doesn’t interfere with my film screen protector. No problem removing the stylus. First I was worried about the notification window not having any cover, only protected by the screen protector, but so far I have no scratches, the camera lenses are sunken in. The side buttons are slightly hard to press. I have to say those feel gimmicky and cheap plastic looking. It’s been on my phone for about a month. Took some time to get use to the little window to turn off my alarms in the morning when I can’t see a thing but mastered it at the end. My only concern is regarding the colour. I wonder how long it will stay cream.

Not a bad case at all, so ill start with the positives and then go for the negatives and then give my overall opinion on this. POSITIVES 1) Fits snugly and offers screen protection as it is a flip case, as well as side protection and rear protection with cameras sitting below the case, so will not scratch or petrude. 2) Works well with samsungs smart view smart tech (turns your always on display on and has other bits and bobs) 3) Smashing colour in the khaki green, with a very premium look 4) Card holder section inside NEGATIVES 1) Very expensive for what it is however this is a samsung phone case so you are paying for the brand! 2) Limited actual protection to the phone. Although this case covers most of the phone, it seems as though it is just a plastic with not much cushioning technology. By this i mean that if you drop your phone in this, it should be fine, however it seems as though the shock would be sent through the case and actually absorbed to the phone, which is not the idea of protecting the phone. 3) If you use the AOD sustem on the phone normally, then this will now use more battery as the smart view cover actually blocks the light sensor, therefore the AOD time and details in the small open section of the screen will be a lot brighter than usual and auto brightness will not work. This would not affect some howeer this was a frustrate to me. Overall, this is not a bad case at all, it offers a decent amout of protection to the phone and you pay for the brand. It is an elegent looking, high end case, however the protection side of it i think is actually quite limited. Although you do get the card feature inside, you can only store one card in this as otherwise the case won't shut flush, but I reccomend overall, but depends on your preference of case.

Every time I end up with a new phone I go through the usual process of buying cases and returning any that aren't suitable. I went straight to the usual suspects, the Spigen Tough Armour was too slippery for the size of phone, the UAG (can't remember the case name, just that it cost me £60!) was bulky but didn't offer protection where it's needed, though I kept it as it looks nice, I tried around 20 cases and have ended up with the UAG, Titan and a Mous case which I have as my classy choice for it's sleek design which makes the phone feel so much smaller. So why have I stuck with this case as a "daily"? Well it has great grip on the sides, has a lanyard loop, the sides come up above the screen curve protecting it in a way that usually only an Otter box defender would for a curved screen phone. As a bonus the attachments are great, well one is, the card holder is totally pointless. The one that provides function as a stand though is brilliant, you can hold it like a mug of coffee if your hands are full, use it to hook your fingers through while holding or taking photos for extra security against drops. For the times I have dropped it the phone has been protected, I strongly feel the extra screen protection around the sides has kept it from having to go in for repair. One of the cheapest cases out there for this phone and if you can tolerate the added bulk and having to remove the attachments while charging (it causes the battery to warm up faster so charge speed slows down, removing it allows heat during charge to dissipate more readily). It's the surprise package of the cases I tried, I expected it to sit in my collection not getting used much but I've settled on it as the best for daily use now and only change when I need to use my gimbal or am going out somewhere and want the class of the walnut backed Mous to go with the occasion. Not sure how it will handle the summer in terms of how much the case causes things to heat up, hopefully it will be ok though. I'll revise the review if it ends up a problem.

This is a great looking and feeling case, it fits super snug while not adding much weight or bulk. The front edges are slightly raised, which should protect the screen when dropped, and the back has enough depth to allow the cameras to be sunk into the back of the case itself. It terms of looks and feel I really can't fault it. The issue here is the durability of the case material. I actually have two cases, one which I use when working offshore in a harsh environment and one which I use when back home. This is the case that I use at home so it has never really been exposed to any rough treatment but after about 6 weeks of actual use it is started to look very worn and is coming apart on the edges. I really expected better to be honest so despite really liking the case itself it's very hard to give it a positive recommendation.

Das Konzept ist prinzipiell ja ganz gut, aber die transparente Rückplatte ist so dünn dass die Kameras nicht geschützt werden und die weiße Platte verhindert das induktive Laden. Außerdem ist die Möglichkeit eine Kreditkarte einzuschieben eine sehr entbehrliche Funktion. Wie mir meine bessere Hälfte ganz selbstverständlich erklärte 😉, liegt hier wohl auch der konzeptionelle Schwachpunkt: damit eine eingeschoben Kreditkarte keinen Schaden nimmt verhindert die Platte das induktive Laden. Also ein krasser Fall von Design Fail. Erstens hätte man es dem Nutzer überlassen können dafür Sorge zu tragen und zweitens ist es doch dumm eine so wichtige Funktion wie das induktive Laden kaputt zu machen nur um ein lächerliches Designelement zu platzieren. Statt der transparenten Rückplatte die billig wirkt, wäre eine zweite weiße ebenfalls so weich gepolsterte Platte ohne Kreditkartenfach, aber mit induktiven Laden, sinnvoller gewesen. Nachsatz: es hat mir keine Ruhe gelassen und ich habe mit einer Heißluftpistole das innere Futter abgelöst und da zeigte sich auch der Übeltäter: eine Metallfolie die eben das induktive Laden verhindert. Hab sie raus gerissen und bin jetzt glücklich. Die Bewertung bleibt aber.

Très bon prix sur Amazon, comme toujours. Côté fonctionnalité c'est top, surtout pour le S23 qui glisse un peu sans coque de protection. La sensation du silicone est très agréable.

Sturdy and helps with the size of the phone when holding it. Have to take the accesory off for wireless charging.

Es la segunda que tengo, no es que sea frágil, es que soy de llevar el móvil colgando de una correa y se me suele caer bastante. Acabó rompiendo pero desde luego aguantó mucho más que otras que he tenido, y el móvil está como nuevo. Me he comprado la funda que parece todoterreno también porque me conozco, tranquilos.

Color igual que en la foto, buen tacto en la mano y buen precio.
