The more elegant style phones nowadays are unfortunately only suitable for display cases, because in daily life it slip away, fall, come and see very soon no longer nice out. Especially with the large notes that are hard to keep in hand, protection is virtually indispensable for me. The Otter Box is hard and is pressed tightly with sealing lip to the note. 4 It takes some practice to the smartphone quickly get back out of the case, but it works well. Quite concerned people they can still complement by a foil for the windscreen, I do not like that, and the glass is only at risk if the device crashes on sharp objects and then help foil not much. It weighs 56g with grade 4 230g then. In order to properly protect bears the Otter Box unfortunately also thick on the note is then practically more than 1 cm thick and perhaps even suitable füer very large pockets. With the box it is a smartphone jackets at the latest. The buttons can be with me easily activate the pen can be seen easily, and even the camera is effectively protected. It is slightly roughened outside, but not really unpleasant and inside the monitor completes the sealing lip. The back is still relatively smooth, so that tends to slide it on the table, something gum would have been pleasant. If one is using the monitor down from, it can not slip. The price is juicy, but who is a 700 unit affords, can there really hardly complain and good protection costs up. I think that protects the Otter Box properly when dropped, in case of doubt better than any insurance. I would like devices from Samsung and Apple that are flat, light and yet be as well protected as this box can do that, but unfortunately that is hardly in their interest, the gold bullion factor is in the box, of course, gone. Now my note can be finally used in harsh everyday.
