TONGATEfor Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra Case, [Built-in Slide Camera Cover & Screen Protector] [2 Front Frame] Military Grade Shockproof S23 Ultra Phone Case with Kickstand & Belt-Clip 6.8", Black

I've had this case for a little while now, and it has been wonderful. It has saved my phone from my 2 year old, several tall drops, and daily use at a chemical plant. The camera cover has held strong, still clicks into place nicely, and stays there. I found that I don't use the stand much, but it is incredibly useful when I do use it. The case fits my phone well, yet is still easy enough to remove. I have noticed there are perpetually air bubbles under the screen protector over the fingerprint scanner, though when the screen is on I don't notice it, and if it's off I don't care. It has done a good enough job of keeping fingerprints to a minimum, and has held up to scratches so far. The case feels comfortable to hold, isn't too think and doesn't add too much weight. Overall I would absolutely recommend this case.

I have used this case type with the sliding lens cover on my last couple of high end phones. I am not a professional photographer needing lightning fast access to the camera for a wildlife or sports shot but don't find needing to slide the cover a problem at all. It has become a reflex reaction as I pull the phone out of my pocket if I intend to use the camera and it is ready to go. I have large hands as many people with a phone this size will and can open the cover with one hand. The original Tongate I purchase for my S23 Ultra did not include the lens cover. I prefer using 9H glass and thought I woudl just leave it off. I had to rethink that when I realized that, on this new model, the lens cover is part of the rugged design. The case is slightly larger and the cover locks into it from the front improving its drop resistance even further. Fortunately, and to my surprise, there is a second front frame included that does not have the screen protector installed in it. It seem like a very high tolerance fit so to be sure my 9H glass (the one often recommended for the unit) would fit, I took an Olfa razor knife and back scrapped the inside of the clip in part to provide a slightly larger space for the glass. Once I had the glass mounted and the unit assembled I'm not sure that was really necessary. Overall, it is an improvement over the earlier model which I saw no problem with at all. As a bonus, my 9H screen protector also came with a 9H assembly to protect the camera lenses. I was unable to use that one the earlier version of the case. There wasn't quite enough depth to allow the door to move freely. On this case the extra fraction of a millimeter needed was there so I tried the fit. In this case a very tiny easing for the hole in the case that the lenses peek through was necessary but, again, a little back scraping with the razor knife eased it out the small fraction of a millimeter that was necessary to have the camera lens protector fit into the opening. I now have the sliding door as well as the 9H glass protectors for the lenses. Overkill but I do like taking care of the things I purchase. They typically still look new when I need to replace them after a few years as technology evolves. As with the earlier version, the phone will charge in the 3rdparty 3-way charging stand Samsung list under accessories on their web site. You do need to make sure you have it centered and I find it works better with the phone vertical than sideways but it works well. Finally, the cover an the belt clip are an interesting addition. I thought I would toss that part aside too but the quality is good and it does hold the phone securely so I will likely use it if I'm taking the phone up on a ladder or into other precarious positions. There is a nice positive lock onto the case that isn;t simply friction. I have used cases costing 5 or 6 yimrs as much from the major brands on phones and iPads and things over the years and am really glad I found this type a few years ago. The protection seems to be at least as good and, yes, I've accidentally drop tested it from the roof of my car while moving and off a few ladders and the phone has survived without a mark even though the shock was hard enough to crack or dislodge the replaceable 9H screen protector a couple of times. If you are looking for something that will really protect the phone and especially the cameral lenses and don't mind adding just a bit of bulk as compared to a tight fitting neoprene case or something like that, I woudl highly recommend this case for either the Note 20 Ultra or S23 Ultra phones.

I am almost hesitant to write a review this soon after receiving the case. It looks like it will hold up and protect the phone.I chose this one because it had a cover for the camera (the camera is the reason I bought the phone). The lens cover slides easily and locks in place both ways (open and closed). Pen is accessible, all ports are accessible and the stand works just fine.It comes with two plastic covers: one that's built into the front case; I haven't used that one. I opted to put the stick-on on there first. It's quirky and doesn't stick on the edges. I think it'd be a good thing to try the other one first because if you don't like it, it will remove easily. With this one, the entire right side has about half an inch that refuses to stick, so for icons or keyboard items on that side, a little more pressure is required to click them successfully. I will likely end up buying a new plastic stick-on cover.At least with the film that I chose, the fingerprint reader does work. I suspect that reviewers who can't get the reader to work did NOT follow the instructions, which clearly state that you should clean the phone with the supplied cloths and not touch the reader portion. Then once the case is on, you can re-scan your fingerprints if necessary (I did not have to re-scan at all).Overall, this is a nice, sturdy case and a good value for the money.
