Review on Samsung EF ZG955CLEGUS Clear Standing Galaxy by Lori Allen

I needed to replace my Note 5 and since the Note 7 hadn't been re-launched yet I had to go for the S8+ which I really loved. I liked my S Pen. But this case makes up for it perfectly. This is the best phone case I've ever bought. It doesn't have a raised lip like some cases that would protect the phone if it were to fall face down, but it protects the screen better than open-faced cases. You don't need a plastic/glass screen protector unless you are REALLY prone to dropping your phone. Fit and finish are exceptional. You can access the buttons through the case, it doesn't interfere with the speaker, charging port or headphones, the flip stand design is held by a magnet, very nice touch, the case attaches to the corners giving the "Rim" the phone has unobstructed thumb access, the case is SLIM (a must for me, love folio cases but 95% of them try to double as wallets) and has no nonsense with wallet slots, just swaps them for something I have far. MUCH prefer slightly translucent screen. With the phone case closed, you can see the day and time even in broad daylight. Very helpful. The case also has a touchpad. So opening the case will instantly unlock your phone unless you've set a passcode on the lock screen (it works great with face recognition). A really neat feature that eliminates the need to hit the power button every time you open your phone case. And closing the case brings the phone back to the watch, again eliminating the need to hit the power button. All in all, this case ticks all of my boxes, plus some thin, durable additions to the functionality of the phone and stand. Honestly this is the best phone case for the S8+, even at $50 this thing blows everything else out of the water. I was no longer such a "me" on the S8+ and actually liked it more than my venerable old Note 5. Maybe I like this case better than the phone.
