My wife has since Jan. 2014 already this leather case (but just for the Note2), which provides the best protection to date and despite high Beansprachung still has no signs of use. This I know because I just wiped recently various residues of children playing again with the mother-phone. Thus I have for my Note3 acquisition also sought this leather bag on Amazon and then still found (as a hidden object was this shell in two-color version, which I did not let me confuse fortunately). Ordered and delivered. Fits perfectly and looks beautiful. Zumind. black in color phone with this leather case seems smaller to me than naked phone. The magnetic closure keeps the lid firmly optimal. If there is criticism that the magnetic lock is too lax, then I would like to point out that my wife the phone many times, etc. stowed close to ATM card in the handbag and so far no magnetic stripe have been deleted. When the phone gets dropped, then can already be (according to incident angle) that the shutter opens. When my wife the phone is nice often from the table / chair fell down (bad children), but always remained in shell and also healing. Therefore (this bag have for Note3 shortly in use) I am aware of the product quality and also important: the phone can easily be seen from his pocket f cleaning etc. and this leather case does not cause any signs of what is important to me.. That's for other products is not always the case, as I have already experienced. Sounds like Lobhuddelei is, but serious. Thank you for this bag in genuine leather.
