CaseBorne V Designed for Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra 5G Case (Formerly ArmadilloTek), [Ultimate Protection Tech] Full-Body Multi-Layer Rugged Kickstand Protective Case Screenless- Purple

I wanted a purple case to complement my lavender S23 ultra. This case is a gorgeous dark lavender shade, with a deeper mauve around the inner part. Very lovely color combo and unlike any of the other "purple" cases I found on the market for the price.Beyond that, the case feels solid, grippy and protective. It has two parts, an inner layer and an outer layer, and they snap together with the phone very easily. I'm usually a UAG fan but this case was less expensive and is better quality, imo. The raised bezel protects the front glass as well as the camera lenses in the back, and all ports/buttons are accessible and easy to push. The stylus is easy to get out. Works well with my offbrand wireless charger, and I appreciate having the charger hole dust cover since I prefer wireless.Yes, this adds some bulk and is quite thicker/heavier than the UAG Plyo I had on my Note 20, but I don't really mind because the thing feels like it could go through battle. I carry it in my purse so the bulk isn't a big deal, people who carry in their pocket may feel differently. My only criticism is that kickstand feels like it will probably break over time, so I'll have to see how the kickstand holds up, but overall that's not a make or break for me in a phone case. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

This is my second cell phone case from this company. My first one was for a Samsung Note 10+ back in 2019 and I didn't hesitate to get another one for my new Samsung S23 Ultra. I really appreciate having a kickstand on the case. Compared to the Note 10+ case this one is "beefier". The corners are enhanced with more rubber, they stick out a bit, and will be more protective when (not if) I drop it. It's an excellent value for $25. A rep in my local T-Mobile store put it on and was impressed at how solid it felt and how secure it fit. He also installed a Samsung screen protector (not glass, $15 on Amazon) and the case didn't interfere with it. It's the same type of screen protector I had on my Note 10+ and it lasted 3 1/2 years! The Samsung screen protector was really easy to install & the 2 lines that are visible after the install, disappeared after 24 hours.

I have bought this case several times. There's only 2 reasons for that--I either got a new phone (so I needed a different size) or the stand broke. Honestly, that's my one and only complaint. I wish the stand was better designed. Having said that, it lasted me about a year and a half. Not so bad. However, this case is so good, I'm willing to put up with the stand issue. I've dropped my phone SO many times and my phone hasn't broken yet. It is especially protective around the corners. It adds a slight bit of bulk to the phone but I can still put it in my pocket. I've seen some other case brands that practically double the size of the phone! I would highly recommend this case to anyone. Obviously, I keep buying it myself!

Overall I like the case. It is what it says it is. There's good fit and finish to the product. Phone fits very well and is very secure. It's simple and sturdy and easy to hang on to which is nice for someone with big hands. The built in stand has been working well and is convenient, though as with most stands like I'll be interested to see how long it lasts.The only thing I wish it has is a magnet for my dash mount as it is something so common these days sames strange not to have. I have tried to use the accessories that came with my last one to adapt it to what I have but it didn't work do to the thickness of the case and foam on the inside. May try something else before getting and different case.Giving it 4 stars only because I use my magnetic dash mount a lot and can't.

Solid & top notch, built very well and solid feeling. Love the way it feels with the extra grip. Definitely gonna be getting another one come upgrade time. Have to see how the kickstand holds up over time, not to mention I left my screen protector on with zero issues. Got it for lower prices that usual.

Fell off of the top of my car at 35mph and the phone was 💯 %!! The S-Pen was ejected and never found, but the phone and the screen were PRISTINE!!!

The S23 Ultra is a beautiful phone. It's also heavy and slippery, and you're almost guaranteed to more likely drop it without a case. And if you don't mind a case that will, frankly, make your gorgeous S23 into something that will look like an unwieldy plastic brick -- but offer you excellent protection -- this is a good case for you.The case comes with two options for the front, one with a screen protector and one without. I'd go with the one without a screen protector and get a dedicated film protector instead, it will fit better. But this case itself is rock solid. It gives more protection around the screen with a raised lip, and its key strength is that the corners are extra reinforced, which is where your phone is most likely to make contact with the ground.But, again, this is a case that prioritizes protection over looks. If you want something with slightly less protection -- but still good protection -- that still holds the S23's elegance, consider the Speck Presidio 2 case. That's what I ultimately went with.
