The best case of this kind that I've ever had

after my smartphone is down sailed together a Slim-Flipstand case and some ugly Macken has suffered, I wanted better protection for sensitive areas.

Since this case has a recess for a wrist strap and the reviews but mostly positive, I was the "original Samsung product" a chance ... and I'm thrilled.

The case is completely processed accurately and very good, the mix of the lakierten back and "lips" of hard Gummii are optically and haptic expresses succeeded.
It is probably the highest quality shell, which I was allowed to keep up to now in the hands. Really do not understand why not many more manufacturers Hardcases provided with such a rubber / silicone edge: is technically obviously feasible, additional protection, gives grip and does not detract from the appearance.

The back looks elegant and scratched much less than I would have expected. The characters look classy and appear to be durable - despite daily hardships is nothing exfoliated etc.

The slightly protruding border can drop the phone on a flat surface with a clear conscience with the display facing downwards, without To him something happens. Also, the S-Pen can be without any problems and challenges reinsert. The buttons on the sides can be in this shell very easy to operate, they do not have such a recess, as is the case in some other cases, but are in the right places "modeled" and have excellent tactile feedback.

The smartphone itself is millimeter "edged" and remains of the shell - Nevertheless, one can easily note 2 as many times raus and purely cliffs again. The envelope or the silicone wear out in any way.

The case looks at the notes of valuable and does not contribute appreciably to - I had in my smartphone resume already, who applied some very TPU Cases that looked ugly and in the end offered no additional protection.
The protection is given MMN definitely in this envelope, they would certainly able to cushion a fall not too brutal enough.

But above all, has been the good old wrist strap already saved (purchased separately) within a very short time my smartphone several times the butt or the housing)
This case was the only one on Amazon with a corresponding recess and I am very grateful to Samsung that they have thought of this product on a section of a loop.

The value here is in absolute balance. I think it's just a pity that there is no matching color Case for the gray version of the note 2. Although the black also looks very passable, I would still have preferred it if there would be a Titanium gray envelope.

All in all I can recommend this protective sheath, especially to the Amazon price.

Best Regards
