Hi,
I'm so confused about my Galaxy S8 because we always have accidentally touches on the curves of the screen even when I use the third party app (No more accidentally touching) so I was wondering if there are certain cases available for this device which blocks the curves of the screen?
Preferably a transparent crystal clear case...
I really hope someone can help me otherwise I have to return my device :/
I'm using the Spigen Ultra Hybrid case. I had that issue of over sensitive screen on my S7 Edge, but not so much with my S8. That Spigen may help. See link. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XP5YQNQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Has anyone have this issue of the back and recent capacitive touch lights not lighting with certain cases?
I have a specific "creit card case" with a flap on the back that closes pretty securely by connecting to a small magnet in the case and I LOVE the case because the "flap" also acts like a tri-fold kickstand similar to some tablet cases in how they fold to pro the device up and it's a really grippy and padded case BUT....when the S7 Edge (in my case) is in the case the lights on the buttons don't light up. The minute I even start pulling the phone out of the case at about 2 inches out near the bottom the ligts come on...nothing in the front of the case is covered by the case itself so I can only assume that it's the magnet in the flap on the back which IS in the lower section of the case.
Thoughts? Would/could this cause permanent damage? What other issues if any have you had with your S7 S7 Edge case?
Thanks all
GO!

I've cracked my S7 Edge and S6 Edge at least 4 times already. I don't use a case because it's like putting a case on a Maserati. You're supposed to show it off! But I'm tired of paying the deductible and having my phone in the shop. I feel like the S7 Edge is more prone to cracks than the S7 because the metal on the side of the S7 absorbs more impact instead of the edge glass. I've almost decided to switch to the S7 because of this.
Anyone have any suggestions on a case that both 1) protects the edge glass sides and 2) shows off the sleek design? I'm okay if it covers the edge glass because the touchscreen on the edge is a bit too sensitive anyway.
You cracked your phones 4 times, therefore you need the Unicorn Beetle Pro case.

Just got this one in as I've had good experiences with their cases in the past. I chose the matte smoke so it doesn't show dirtiness or discolor easily like a clear would. On my titanium S7E, it looks fantastic. The sides are clear so it blends in perfectly. The back looks okay... but I never look at the back of the phone anyway.
Only thing I may not like about it is the buttons... the edges stop where the aluminum edges meet the glass on the sides, so it keeps the naked feeling on the actual display which is great. The case does go over the buttons though, but doesn't wrap completely around the side of them so the case buttons can slip off the actual buttons somewhat easily and feel weird/make it slightly hard to push the buttons. It's hard to describe. The corners are very well protected though and the case is tight on the phone. I'll take a picture later.
Why not posting in the S7E accessories section?

Stop droping your phones.
Many, many case reviews here:

But no case that retains edge functionality will really prevent damage if you drop your phone and the edge hits something hard.
I have purchased an S8+ recently and ordered some cheap cases and screen protectors off ebay. The problem is that they pick up fingerprints and look weird around edges where the adhesive is. Can anyone recommend and good screen protectors that can be bought in the UK? I'd prefer them to be case friendly as well. Thanks.
I use these with my Spigen thin case.
They have wings so tuck under the case stopping edge lift.

Yes, I've read about these but forgot about them! Thanks for this, will definitely get them.
The tech 21 screen protectors are really really nice. I have 1 on my S8 and it's fantastic even with fingerprints. It's very case friendly I have yet to have any issues with it yet.
I use Samsungs OEM screen protector.
I bought mine in Switzerland. It is a "Panzerglass" one. The phone already fell hard on the ground and the screen protector didn't even scratched, it also doesn't catch fingerprints easily.
I've tried quite a bit of screen protectors, invisible defender, white stone, spigen etc and I ended up returning them all. It's going to be trial and error for you; it's highly subjective and what you will like compared to others.
There is an XDA forum dedicated to the S8+ (rather than the S8), and there's an Accessories sub-forum within it where there are a number of threads dealing with screen protectors for the S8+

I'm finding my I-Blason Armorbox case cuts off part of the screen on the sides where the Edge curve is (and causes my screen protector to keep trying to come off after a perfect install) just enough that I can't read some things and blocks enough to be annoying. What cases provide awesome protection (I liked this one for the kickstand and all around protection (no screen protector included), but will allow for full screen mode? I'm not looking for one with a built-in screen protector as it seems to be hit and miss and don't really care for one. I put my own matte screen protectors on.
Any ideas? I am sending back the Armorbox case on Amazon tonight and would like to know what would be a good buy and won't block the screen edge and allow full screen view and full edge access.
Thanks in advance you guys!
I'm using Dome Glass with the Samsung Ultimate back protector, works perfectly
I have a "Reveal Series" case by encased. 16 dollars on Amazon, comes with a belt clip. Glass Screen protector friendly (in using one by body guardz). Very minimal case, but their holsters are top notch. I had one for my v20, fell one the holster and it didn't break and my phone stayed in it.
Hi there.
I have a Galaxy S7 Edge, and any screen protectors I put on it lifts off the screen, or gets pushed up from the screen by the case. Is there a screen protector that works with all cases? Or even an edge-less screen protector? Are there any cases that work with screen protectors? Preferably wallet style.
Many thanks

No particular screen protector can save your display. I had one but it shattered at one go. Use hard armor case to protect your device. No damage taken on flat surfaces
