Crave Note 10+ Case, Dual Guard Protection Series Case for Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus - Black

I've used Otterbox Symmetry series cases for years, because I thought they were the best. But, when my current cases started separating along a seam at the bottom and literally started falling apart, I looked for a replacement and they don't even sell them anymore for my phone. Even if I could find one second hand, they only had black.So, I started searching and found these CRAVE cases. They looked really nice and come in so many different colors, so I thought I'd give them a try for both my Note 10 plus, and my wife's Note 8. So, first plus for these, they actually have cases for both of these older phones in a variety of colors.I received the new cases within a few days and absolutely love them! They fit both phones perfectly and snap on very securely. The finish is beautiful, and the texture is grippy enough to easily and securely hold the phone, while not grabbing when placing in my pocket. They also don't show fingerprints or smudges. The case provides more substantial protection than my old case, with a raised edge all the way around the screen, not just the top and bottom. It also has more protection around the S-pen, where my old case left that whole corner exposed.All the ports are accessible, and the buttons are the best I've seen on any phone case. They stand out well in silver against the black case edge, and they function perfectly, with just enough resistance but very responsive 'click' when pressed. I've also had no issues with wireless charging.Bottom line, these are amazing cases at a very good price, and are my new favorite. My wife also loves hers, so it's not just me. I got blue and she got red and both colors look really nice.I highly recommend these cases!

If I need to replace my case again and I also wanted something more on the "plain" side (the case I just tossed upon receiving this one was greenery: vines & leaves), I would buy this again.The texture on the back is very attractive and also nice to touch. The case is heavier than my other case. The fit is perfect.I uploaded so many pictures to show the color in different lighting. I am not sure if Amazon will have them in the same order as I uploaded, but the pics were taken with the following lighting: 1st pic, low lamp light. 2nd, same place as 1st but with the flash turned on. 3rd, directly under the lamp. 4th, ceiling overhead light turned on. The color is gorgeous and exactly as pictured in the advertisement. 5th is to show the inside (which is totally nice but of course you never see that) and the buttons on the side.

Pros:- Very affordable.- Slightly rubbery, grippy feel without feeling too rubbery. It doesn't feel like a coating, so it shouldn't scratch off.- VERY slim for a dual layer case.- Cutout are very well aligned.- Covers the corner near the pen very well.(Other reviews complain about this since it makes the pen access a bit tougher. I see it as a plus.)- Has ample top and bottom lips to protect the screen in case of drops.-Ample coverage on the sides to prevent accidental touches.Cons:- Fake chrome, plastic buttons are terrible. They are nice and clicky, but the buttons are very loose. Power button has become really loose after 1 week of use.This is a very nice, affordable case. It would be absolutely perfect if it had better buttons. Those buttons feel super cheap.As for the complaints I read regarding the small pen cutout. It is a valid complaint. I eject the pen using my pinky, and pull it out with my finger nail. A bit inconvenient. But, the small cutout results in far better protection for the lower right corner of the phone. All the other covers I've seen have large cutout for the pen resulting in less than ideal corner coverage. I dropped my last phone (Note 5 with Spigen Slim Armor case) a couple of times and the only place that had damage was the lower right corner due to lack of coverage.Please redesign those buttons!!!*** One year update***I have gone through two of these cases. Both cases broke exactly in the same location, even the shape of the break is exactly the same. I believe it's from the way the phone sits in my pocket. When I sit or bend forward, often, the corner of the phone digs into my groin. Since the corner of the case is covered by a rigid plastic shell, it will eventually fatigue and break. If you have a larger phone, you might want to stick to a case with a rubber corner like the Crave Strong Guard. I'm 5' 8". FYI.

Edit: I originally gave this case a 3-star review and the seller contacted me almost the same day and offered to send a replacement. Over a 3-star review! I was skeptical a replacement would be any different but I accepted the offer. I received the new case a few days later and it looks the same, and feels the same, but it correctly activates the volume and power buttons when pressed. This case really is a great case, it's not expensive like an Otter Box which I've had for this phone and wasn't happy with the bulkiness. You easily get more than what you pay for.Original review:It's a very nice looking phone case, and it feels great when I hold my phone. I've dropped my phone being out of my SUV or standing up from a chair and my phone doesn't have any damage at all. My one and only complaint, and it is a moderate one so not minor and not major, is the covers for the buttons (volume and power) are terrible. They're made of a hard plastic made too look like metal, and they do not stay in place. The result is when you go to press the desired button most times it does not accurately activate the desired response, ie the volume increases when you want it to decrease. In the beginning it seemed like a small inconvenience, but I've had it for many months and by now it's very irritating. It looks nice but cannot recommend this case.

Queda a la perfección en mi Samsung Note 10 Plus, se siente de buena calidad y buen gusto.

Me gusto mucho la funda, muy comoda y buen agarre.

The colour is very trendy, the quality is really good, asthetically beautiful to the eye, firm and not slippery to hold. Overall, I'm very pleased with the pricing and the product.

Durability

It broke on one corner shortly after I bought it. Although since then it has been great only just recently needed to replace it.I like the rubber inside and that you can put a metal plate in between the red hard part of the case and the rubber. The metal plate is for the magnetic car mount I have. It works amazing with it.
