S23 Ultra Case Review - Official Samsung Rugged, Gadget, Frame + more!

[@AndroidAddicts]

Update: @mitchellrault suggested putting the gadget case stands on horizontally (to allow phone to be in portrait mode) - this works on the Rugged Gadget case but not on the Clear Gadget (sadly) but it's certainly worth knowing!

[@Saysthe]

Interesting..

[@SibTiger33]

You can reposition the gadget

[@mitchellrault]

I believe that you can rotate the stand on the rugged and clear gadget case horizontally and it will lock in place allowing you to use it in portrait mode. Simply slide up to rotate and go past the release click and it will lock again

[@AndroidAddicts]

Great suggestion - I hadn't thought of that at all! I've just tried it on both and it works great on the Rugged case but the Clear Gadget case's stand isn't quite big enough to prop the phone up in portrait - it just falls over sadly. On the Rugged case though it works a treat - thanks!

[@mitchellrault]

@Android Addicts I'm glad it worked! Pity about the Clear Gadget case not working, but atleast it works on the rugged case! Thank you for the review of the different cases, keep up the good work! 😊

[@SibTiger33]

Yes u can change positions of the lock works pretty well

[@RemmyRiffs]

The S View case is definitely the clear winner for me and has been for a few generation's now. I can't imagine buying a new S Ultra device without buying the S View case to go along with it. Extra display protection for the inside of my pocket, S View display is handy, and the card holder make's it super easy to just pull my phone out and grab it out instead of going into my wallet and shuffling through a bunch of card's. The buttons are more rigid for a reason though...it stops accidental presses. I just wish they'd give us back the S View display that we had for the S21 Ultra S View case. Not a huge fan of the small corner window. I also don't understand why there is no longer a shield there to protect the screen. Now anything can go right through the window to scratch the screen.

[@Gadgetonomy]

It doesn't have a clear plastic window because you can still take photos with the flap folded back. I would imagine once it gets scratched or smudged your photos would not out too well.

[@Gadgetonomy]

The smart cover display also shows full notifications and music player controls. You have to swipe left and right (after waking it up with a double tap)

[@AndroidAddicts]

Ahh nice - thanks for the tip 👍

[@porterejohn]

I always find that silicone cases grip the inside of my pocket too much, making it difficult to remove and sometimes turning my pocket inside out. It's a shame because I really like the Samsung silicone cases.

[@AndroidAddicts]

That's very true. And the pocket thing is something I'd not even thought about but I can imagine it happening too 😅👍

[@OffTom5783]

I want the frame, it's beautiful

[@tech390r]

Thanks for reviewing rugged case ❤

[@openmindedbloke]

Excellent review as always. Thank you.

[@AndroidAddicts]

Thanks very much!

[@edwardr8226]

Thanks for showing the rugged case doesn't cover the lenses, it was checking all the boxes until you showed that

[@AndroidAddicts]

Yeah makes no sense to me! Glad it was helpful and saved you some money! 👍

[@angeladan9186]

Hola tengo el silicone case verde en mi s23 ultra y es muy buen case

[@AndroidAddicts]

¡Buena eleccion!

[@khalillibya2358]

4th the best❤

[@AndroidAddicts]

It's a beauty 👍

[@voodoochile333]

What is your daily use case?

[@AndroidAddicts]

None of them took my fancy in the end so I went with the Spigen Hybrid S

[@Saysthe]

Informative video, keep up that good work.

[@AndroidAddicts]

Thanks very much! 💚

[@MrTabasham1990]

I found all of these really underwhelming. I'll be sticking with Spigen. Great video though.

[@AndroidAddicts]

Thanks for watching - Spigen is always a good choice 👍

[@karakusorhan572]

Orange cool color❤❤ i am have samsung s23 galaxy ultra Orange color 😊😊

[@natashmi]

Hello! I really liked the Clear case, but I couldn't remove it myself, so I returned it. Please tell me, is the Frame case also difficult to remove? Can it only be used as a frame (bumper)? Thank you!

[@AndroidAddicts]

Hi there, they're all a bit 'stuff' to remove when they're new but once you've taken them off a few times they loosen up. You should be able to just use your thumbs on the top of the phone to 'pry' away the case - starting from one corner and then moving to the next. But yes, you can just use the frame case as a 'bumper' if you wished

[@natashmi]

@@AndroidAddicts Thank you 😊

[@loitersquadX]

Does the silicone case with strap work for MagSafe or does the strap get in the way

[@AndroidAddicts]

Do you mean wireless charging?

[@aiz500]

Can we use the silicon case with camera lens protector? Is it compatible??

[@MrCaribe65]

Nope.

[@HafizMAsaad]

Does the silicone case have microfiber lining inside?

[@alaskanmalamute101]

gadget case looks pretty poor compared to magsafe the whole point of magsafe is that the case is still flat i would never put anything that big on the back of my case

[@AndroidAddicts]

It's too big for me too 👍 Apple has always been better at design so I'm hoping 3rd parties will come up with something better in the coming months

[@banahwaaymentupac]

you can remove the support of gadget from the case in the rugged one ?

[@AndroidAddicts]

No sadly not

[@banahwaaymentupac]

the power share work with rugged gadget case without gadget ?

[@AndroidAddicts]

I couldn't get it to with a phone. Possible it'd work with a smaller item like a watch or buds...

Me encantan estos video aunque no entiendo una 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 jajaja

[@AndroidAddicts]

¿Están buenos los subtítulos? Si no, intentaré transcribirlos manualmente y luego traducirlos con Google Translate.

[@fredriks91]

Try the frame without anything on the back

[@AndroidAddicts]

It does as you'd expect - just put a frame around your phone 👍

[@fredriks91]

@@AndroidAddicts Nice! I've actually searched for something like that for a while. I use Spigen Cryo so extra heat dissapeates. Nothing is better than nothing, but you'd like to protect the corners from falls

[@HieuNguyen-kh7nd]

god

[@RaviSharma-lv5is]

Extremely poor implementation of all these covers by Samsung. I have purchased Samsung rugged case & I felt I just wasted my 65$ on this shit. No camera protection, lanyard position is so awkward, I can't type the messages easily due to the lanyard positioning. The inside material is extremely hard and can cause serious scratches on your phone. The mobile stand has already got loose in 15 days. A big no to this case. Don't buy a Samsung Galaxy rugged gadget case.

[@AndroidAddicts]

Thanks for your feedback - I too was underwhelmed with the case lineup for this model.

[@csigunner5087]

After 6 months of use my stand finally gave up the ghost. Is there even replacement options?

[@AndroidAddicts]

In the UK you get 12 months warranty so depending on where you bought it from you should be able to return it for a replacement

[@MrCaribe65]

Why don't people acknowledge that the "leather" case is really plastic with some sort of coating? I bought one, and it's obvious that it's faux leather. More like "pleather". 😂 Sent that garbage back to Samsung.
