Clayco Galaxy S8 Case, [Helios Series] Premium Hybrid Protective Case for Samsung Galaxy S8 (Blue/Black)

Fits my S8 perfectly. The top and bottom are slightly curved to protect the screen from touching any surface when it's lying face down. The right and left side are slightly lower than the screen, so the curved screen is still visible from the side. The gold color is a little more muted than the pictures show, but I don't mind. Gold finish does not seem to chip easily. The black crosshatch pattern feels nice and smooth.Side buttons are a little hard to press, I'll have to see if that gets easier over time.Tried dropping from 1ft and 2ft above hardwood floor, no issues. I'm too nervous to try dropping from any higher, but the material does seem sturdy and reliable - I just don't want to risk it!UPDATE: 1 month later I still love it. The buttons have gotten easier to press over time, and the material has held up to a lot of use. No scratches or dents. Love the color.UPDATE: 3 months later it's still great. No chips or scratches, it still looks brand new. I have now dropped it on multiple occasions from 4-5 feet off the ground. Phone is intact and works perfectly.

Product fits like a glove on my s8 and is lovely on my phone. I need star because I thought it had a front piece as well. I'll contact seller about that. Buttons are stiff but seam to loosen as you use your phone

I can't figure out why people are complaining about the buttons being hard to push with this case on. I have TINY hands and have no issues with my Clayco case.Pluses: - Good protection. No, it's not an Otterbox Defender. But, I wanted a protective case that's a lot lower profile than a Defender. I got exactly that with this case. - Perfect fit all the way around. All the buttons and ports are easily accessible. - The magnet that I have on the back of my phone works just fine through this case; no need for a finger ring/magnet or Pop Socket other extra magnetic device. Therefore, I can attach my phone to my magnetic holster in my car without extra apparatus attached to my case. - As I said, my hands are small - no joke... my thumb to pinkie span is only 7.75" at most, from the base of my palm to the tip of my middle finger is only 6.5", and my palm is only 3.25" wide. With this case, I can actually reach everything on my phone even if I'm using it one-handed because the case isn't bulky. I have a few cases that add so much to the overall size of the phone that I can't utilize the phone very easily unless I'm using it with 2 hands.If you have small hands and want an economical, protective case for your S8, this is a very good choice. I would say that this case is about the same amount of protection as my Otterbox Symmetry case. I like them both and frequently switch between the 2.I do recommend that you NOT try to take this case off by prying the sides open, however. I would venture to guess that's how some of these people broke the side plastic. I always take this case off by pushing the top corners out first. Then, the whole phone comes out with no problem.

I ordered this case before there were any reviews (before the phone was out so I would have it when I got the phone). I'm not sure why everyone is rating it so low! The buttons are stiff at first, but they do ease up quickly (couple days). The color is great! At first I was worried the case was too slippery. I was used to the Speck Grip case which I love (had for old phone), but I'm not willing to fork out $40 for it! So I got this case and the Spigen one. I ended up returning the Spigen one bc the color wasn't as good, and because this one has better grip with the texture on the back which makes it feel less likely to slip out of my hand. I only gave it 4 stars because the Speck Grip case is still better (the grip!) But I'm very happy with this case for the cost!UPDATE- After having this case for 3 months I dropped the phone and it hit and broke the outside silver piece into pieces. Once they piece is gone the case is not comfortable to hold. I originally ordered this as because the Speck was $40. So I bought this one to wait for the speck price to go down. Just purchased the speck for $22. I still recommend the speck if you're willing to pay a couple extra bucks!

It came nicely packaged, but once I put my phone in it, the buttons on the side were VERY hard to push. I removed it once to install my Mini SD Card, and upon removal of the phone, the case cracked on the side. It's flimsy and thin and such on the sides with cheap plastic which obviously cracked VERY easily. I would NOT recommend this product, and I am demanding my money back

Nice case and feels great in my hand. My only nitpick is the buttons.They're very stiff and you really have to press the buttons to get it to register an action.May 17 , 2017: Part of the case by the power button has snapped. I had to remove the case to get access to the buttons to do a soft reboot on my phone. That's when it snapped. This drops my review from 3 to 2 stars.

Fits great. Nice feel. I like that it's a slim case and it doesn't make my phone feel bulky. I've only dropped my phone once since it's been in this case. So far, so good!

For the prices it's a nice case. Plastic not metal as you might think from viewing the picture online. The rubber back is great for grip in your hand. I would forsure recommend this case!
