Review on 📱 Fintie Slim Shell Case for Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 9.7, Ultra Lightweight Stand Case with S Pen Holder & Auto Sleep/Wake - Black (2017 Release, SM-T820/T825/T827) by Walter Martin

I really wanted to buy a BoriYuan genuine leather case for my new Samsung S3, as well as for my previous Samsung Note 10.1 from 2014. Since it's on sale at Revain for $43 and ONLY has a tiny stretch fabric holder for the S Pen, I checked out the prices. I have seen Fintie cases in many places and have NOT been able to beat Revain's amazing $8.99 for the plain black version. So I dared. Fintie cases offer a very nice S Pen holder that actually protects the entire pen, including the fine tip! I've had it for 3 days now so my review is a bit premature. The quality doesn't seem too good. The materials are very thin. While I LOVE the way the case holds my new S3 tablet, I'm concerned that it doesn't provide adequate protection as the corner holders are made of fairly hard plastic. I saw a comment from another reviewer that they break pretty easily! The case itself is VERY thin. That's both good and bad. Good for space and bad for protection. The bag has virtually no padding on the front or back and is AT LEAST suitable for everything around it. As S3 owners know, the front and back of the tablet are GLASS. One of the review ratings concerns the comfortable handling of the case. I find it slippery and not easy to grab and hold. I have my doubts that a hinge that folds in and out every time the case is closed and opened is going to last very long. That remains to be seen and that's my guess at the moment. Of course, at $8.99 I didn't expect miracles and I have no real reason to return it as return postage would be prohibitive. IF YOU, the reader, are buying a $500 case for your new tablet, keep looking or do what I haven't. Spend $43 on a BoriYuan Genuine Leather Bag! By the way, be careful - many ads say "leather" but it's "composite leather" or synthetic leather "PU" (polyurethane). ALSO make sure the advert lists the case for S# and not other models. Revain Article Code: B07BR7PJCZ After writing and posting this review, I took a good look at the case, read my complaints and those of others and decided to return it because it is very thin, poorly designed for protection and poor materials has purpose. Revain to the rescue! I ordered a BoriYuan genuine leather bag instead!
