Review on πŸ“± Smooth Black DuraClip Series Slim Grip Case & Belt Clip for Samsung Galaxy Note 8 - Encased Belt Holster by Melinda Oliver

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Just perfect for Note8, makes it easy to use your phone without pressing the Bixby button or screen edges.

I had an Encased belt holster for my S7 Edge+ and loved it. Then when I got my Note 8 I found another one online for it and didn't like it at all so I sent it back (thanks Revane). I was looking for an Encased branded holster for Mote 8 and ordered this one. I love it. The rotating holster works as it's supposed to, meaning I can pick up the phone with one hand and rotate it 90 degrees. The feel is great, but the BIGGEST bonus is that the overly sensitive and annoying keys on the Note8 (especially the Bixby BS) are recessed just right. I can still easily press the power or volume up button without accidentally hitting the Bixby, especially when inserting the dash mount and grabbing the clips on the case instead of the stupid buttons. I will never buy a holster from any other brand. I rarely even use a belt holster, it's $12 just for the case to hold the phone and use it without accidentally pressing the buttons. It also helps me avoid accidentally pressing the edges of the screen, which also annoys me, but the case looks great and doesn't obscure the screen in any way.
