Love it!
I just received it today(11/6/17) and I love it so so much. At first, the screen was hard to touch through the case but that is because I also had a glass screen protector underneath. As soon as I removed that and put the case back on it felt like there wasn't even a cover there! And as long as it does a good job of protecting the screen then I don't see a reason to have the added glass screen cover underneath. The case is very light and slim. It was easy to put on and fits extremely well. I'll update this in a few weeks once the case has had some wear and tear and see how it holds up. But so far I am very happy with it.Updated review (11/29/17) I've dropped it a few times and nothing has cracked. The case has held up pretty good except that the screen scratches quite easily. The very first day it had already accumulated a few scratches. But other than that I am still very much enjoying this case and do not regret buying it whatsoever

Great Case - A 27 month review
I bought this case on on 1/8/18. I didn't think I had it that long, but, I needed a new one, and since I've had it for over two years, I felt a review wouldn't hurt. First, I abuse my phone. It's on a boat. It's on a jet-ski. It's on an inflatable dingy. It gets tossed, slid around, etc. For the last 2 years, my phone has been dropped, fallen off (left it on the rear bumper) my truck, and fallen into water twice. This case has weathered its abuse, and still protects my phone. The only reason why I'm getting another, is that the screen is too scuffed up, and the rubber on the corners is slightly worn. Once you snap your phone inside, it's a true pain to get the case open. It's pretty tight, which is why I believe my phone wasn't destroyed when it fell into the water. Granted, it was shallow and clear, and the phone wasn't submerged either time for more than 10-15 seconds. It's not rated waterproof/resistant, but, it certainly did the trick. The case also supports wireless charging, so that's a plus. Also, I have the gold color, and it has not faded one bit. No issues with screen sensitivity, unless the cover gets really dirty. Last, the case isn't overly bulky, but one very small annoyance - which is just a personal observation - the rubber on the corners of the case sometimes "hangs up" on your pocket and doesn't slide in and out smoothly. Still rate 5 stars, and highly recommend.

Best Case for the S8+, and the Only Real Option for a Good Screen Protector.
The best option for the S8+, and the best case I've owned, and the only real option if you want a screen protector. All other separate screen protectors look like garbage and don't stay on. The case fits snug, screen protector works great with complete responsiveness; no gaps (don't know what people are complaining about here), and looks outstanding. The only negative is the back scratches easily, and the screen protector might too since it is not glass.

Flawed
So I ordered this for my first ever S8+ phone, having just upgraded from an S5. It was super easy to install, looks great, but somehow, despite being in my pocket with literally only thin, soft eyeglass cleaning cloths, the screen portion of the protectie has scratches. I'm baffled, as I literally only had it on for one day, for maybe 12 hours. The scratches don't bother TOO much, just unexpected. The edges are also rather insensitive, forcing me to adjust settings to make the keyboard thinner and to increase the zoom to touch certain things easier. Also, on the off chance something makes it under your screen guard, like a thin hair somehow, or if you notice a smudge, the disassemble process is NOT as easy as getting it on. One final issue, so far, is that the volume buttons often don't click right, as the other buttons do. The other buttons work fine with this case, but kinda annoying. The only upsides really are that my phone won't immediately break upon dropping, and it looks nice.

4 Years After
I've had this case for 4 approximate years for my S8+, and it is one of the best cases I've invested into at such a reasonable price that has lasted me since. It's slim, not bulky like other cases, and very recognizable to all touches and taps on the screen. I have dropped this case so many times, and have also purposely literally dropped my phone many times in front of friends showing just how amazing this case is LOL. Even after all those years, my phone still remains as if it was factory new with no scratches or damages. The reason I got this case was to avoid paying the protection fees that they offer from providers to save a bit of money incase I ever wanted to exchange my device, but I had decided to keep this phone and this case has served through all this time with ease. I would trust this case with my children, it's truly amazing. I would also bring my phone into the shower every single time to use to take advantage of the waterproofing, as well as the already waterproofing of the phone itself, so it's double the water protection to use while I can multitask in the shower without wasting time in the day; hence the paint erasure from the used photos that's been brought with me in the shower for all those times. Whenever friends would come to ask about case suggestions, I have ALWAYS recommended this one, and they as well have fallen in love with the protection it serves, and the clear and transparent design of this full-faced case. Once my Note 20 Ultra arrives, I'll definitely be buying the case for that one by this company very shortly.

Bad inverted screen when using polarized glasses!!
What a HUGE disappointment.The fit and finish of the case is amazing. The way it cradles your phone give you a great sense of security And it really is nice from all angles.However, the screen protector portion is junk. It's got the worst dot matrix pattern of any screen protector I've used in my S8+. But that's not the worst part - through polarized sunglasses, the screen has an inverted area that covers almost half of the screen. This is a deal breaker for anyone that uses maps while driving and wearing sunglasses or anyone that wears sunglasses and tries to use their phone for literally anything.First picture is the burn-in taken on s separate phone looking though polarized sunglasses, second picture is without. Save your money if you wear sunglasses - super nice case but it's non functional to anyone that wears them.

Fantastic Case...
A really lovely case that feels firmly wrapped around my phone keeping it safe from drops. I know it's a bit late, but I dropped my new S8+ on the road, which smashed (not just cracked) the screen. Having paid £200 for a replacement screen, I feel that my phone is now more secure, from being dropped, at least!The i-Blason case is very well maid, and the two halves fit together faultlessly. Unfortunately, the front cover was scratched easily by the button on my shirt pocket, but at least I can replace this for a lot less than a new OLED display.I know the S8/S8+ are very shiny and pretty (sexy even?) but they are very easily dropped and damaged. I found this case less obtrusive than many others that I have tried AND the phone still feels good to hold. ALSO, Wireless charging still works, both at home and in the car. Probably won't work with something like a DEX though, as case will be too thick to mate with the built in USB-C connector.

PROTECTION SUPERIORITY ASSURED.
The best phone protection I have ever bought for my S8+ & I have tried many on the market to date but the i-blason superseded all in existence; looks good super tuff transparent back so you can see your phone's logo/colour; rubber surround acts as a bumper shock absorption qualities can't be bettered; front screen sensitivity unaffected on my device I was so impressed I bought 3:colours brushed metal BLUE,GREEN & GOLD need I say more not at all dissatisfied people *****;

Good lifespan, plastic screen cover scratches easily
Had this case for quite some time now only downfall is the plastic screen case scratches very easily and sometimes becomes hard to view what's on your screen if sunlight is on your phone. However protects the phone very well and I have dropped numerous of times and my phone is not damaged. May be due a replacement one however as this one is getting a little bit shabby now.

A good phone protector
After trying out different cases & screen protectors, I decided to buy this, mainly because it's a full body case with 360 degree protection. I must say it's the best 1 I've bought, I'm very happy with this protector. It's a great feeling to know that my S8+ is nicely protected, the cover looks good & fits perfectly. I carry my phone inside my hand bag & the plastic screen has scratched a little now (maybe because of the keys I just dump inside my bag without thinking much of it) - I'm happy that it's not my actual phone screen that got scratched. If the protector screen gets scratched too much, I really don't mind buying this protector again. I recommend this product!

Brilliant overall.
On first impressions this is a very durable case. The front screen protector fits it snug and to the screen, not lifted at all which was one of my fears. It fits togeather very tight so no chance of the case coming apart and although slightly bulky looking it is very streamlined and fits in the hand nicely. It is sleek looking but also gives that feel of full protection, I have no worries about dropping my phone nor do I have any about scratches to either the front and back. It even has rubber fittings built into the case to protect the charging port and the headphone jack, which could also protect even further against water than the phone already does. Overall this is a great product and has far surpassed my expectations. I'm extremely happy with this case and would recommend this brand to anyone.
