GhostekATOMIC slim Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra Phone Case with Clear Back and Iridescent Aluminum Bumper S-Pen Stylus Cutout Shockproof Phone Cover Designed for 2022 Samsung S23 Ultra (6.8") (Prismatic)

Scroll down for the Pros/Cons, but do read the review please! =)I decided to switch things up this time around and get the Ghostek Atomic Slim case for my new S23 Ultra. For my previous phones like the iPhone 6+, Galaxy S8+ and s20+, I was using the Supcase Unicorn Beetle Pro. They were good cases all around, however, the Ghostek Atomic Slim is more beautiful, rugged, and has a premium feel with the aluminum frame, unique camera cutout, and the see through window on the back which shows off the natural beauty of the phone! With most rugged cases you're limited to the entire phone being covered and sometimes you just want to look at and show off the bare phone. The cases that offer that though tend to be very thin and offer much less or almosy zero protection. This Atomic Slim case offers both the ruggedness AND the ability to see the phone through the window and camera cutout on the back! I also really love the Prismatic color so much but contemplated getting the red/black color a while before purchasing the Prismatic color. I've already gotten compliments and questions from others in the 5 days of using this and they all said how really liked it as well!Another thing I really like about this case is the front protection. I tend to leave my phone face down on the desk sometimes, and the front top and bottom of the case have a slight bump that prevent the screen from resting directly on the table. No need to worry about damaging or cracking your screen when face down! The case is also very ridged and it takes some decent pressure to take the phone in and out. That's a good thing because I don't have to worry about my phone falling out of the case if I had a bad drop! It also has a good elevation around the camera so you won't have to worry about the lenses being damaged from drops or resting it on the back. Also no wobbling when laying the phone down on either front or back!The window on the back is amazing because like I said before, it shows off whatever color phone you choose! I might even get a nice decal to put on the back of my phone so I can see it through the window! You can really make this case your own!! The window is also recessed and the clear window sits right up against the phone. I do have large hands and I love the feeling of the recess when I hold the phone. My fingers rest up on the edge of the window and it feels secure in my hand! The ONLY downside to me if the sides of the case are a bit less grippy than I'm used to, but do realize my only frame of reference is from using the Supcase UB Pro cases for years. The grippiness isn't bad by any means, just a tad more slick on the aluminum parts, mainly when using it one handed. That said, I'm not worried about dropping this phone but I wanted to mention this. I haven't had much variety in my cases so I do have a limited view.The S-Pen cutout is nice and makes it easy to get the pen when you need it! Plenty of room around the charge port, I couldn't see this getting in the way of even the largest Type-C connectors! The power/volume buttons feel nice and have a nice click when using them! The side buttons is one of the negatives I've read in other reviews, mainly people saying they're stiff and hard to press. Not at all in my opinion! I was expecting the side buttons to suck before I even got the phone. I was pleasantly surprised after using it!Lastly, I couldn't find really any reviews saying if this case was compatible with the Whitestone Dome Glass screen protector (which I heard so many great things about), but it works flawlessly with this case! I also have the ESR camera lens protectors installed (in the silver color) and they also work flawlessly with this case (and look amazing!)PROS:- Snug/tight fitting- Premium feel with the aluminum- Raised edges on the front top and bottom and around the cameras- No wobbling on tables when resting it on either side- Recessed window on back to show off the beauty of the phone (and helps with grip as mentioned in above review)- S-Pen is easy to access with the cutout- Type-C cutout is large so you can easily fit the largest of Type-C connectors- Good padding inside the case for extra protection and peace of mind- Beatiful color (pics don't do it justice!)CONS:- SLIGHTLY less grippy on the sides, however as stated above, I've only used the Supcase UB Pro cases over the last 9 or so years. My sample size is extremely limited hahaI'll leave a reminder for myself to come back in a few months with an update!

A bit heavy, but reliable, and protects the phone for any kind of falls. Also. ability to insert various backgrounds allows to freshen up phone looks often

Masculine phone case with leather.

Bought this 2 years to over 2 years ago for my wife’s S22 Ultra. She is very picky about phone cases.She wanted a pink one and oh boy.So on my iPhone 7+ I had a Ghostek Atomic 2.0, and LOVED IT.Remembering that looked on Amazon and they had a Pink one and it matches great with her Burgundy phone.It is grippy but also slick at the same time, it is rubber, TPU, and Glass. Super easy to clean, even easier to put on and off, you don’t lose any functionality of your phone. Great value when we got this on sale, paid 25$Or so for it.She says 4 Stars because the Pink does come off with wear and tear, and shows white underneath the pink.All this time and the case is still holding up protection wise and in terms of quality ( minus the paint )Glass still intact, the rubber hasn’t stretched and the TPU isn’t broken either!!!!

Have had this case on for approximately one month and I just had my first major drop (table height on to tile 😬) and my phone was totally fine. That's the ultimate test right there.I like the looks, I wish I had thought to match my camera protectors to it (they are out there). I like the clear window so you can still see phone color/possibly add your own sticker or cut out for extra flair.I switched to this case because my previous one was too slippery, and I was a little worried about this one on that front but it's mostly great. I'm sure there are even gripper cases (softer edges with texture type) out there, but the texture and different heights on this one are more than sufficient for 'normal' grip.Obviously it is protective enough (see first paragraph) but I'd call it upper average. Only having the raised bevels on the ends is always a trade off. I also expected the grey portions of the case to be softer for more shock absorption (similar to a speck or otterbox case) but I kind of like that they're not. Makes the case easier to put on and that soft stuff tends to be the first part of the case to wear. Also not a dust magnet. I'll admit that I was a little worried about the protection factor when I picked it out, but it seems to have done quite well.Edit: Here I am... gosh I don't even know. Checking back, over a year later and I LOVE THIS CASE. It has held up so beautifully (the metal coloring is just beginning to wear on the corners) and best of all PROTECTED THE HECK out of my phone. I've had more drops. Worse ones. Literally the other night I dropped it from standing height onto concrete and it went beneath my car. I didn't even want to look at it because I just absolutely knew it was cracked. It was too nasty. My husband took pity on me and checked it for me. Phone is flawless, case is pretty darn flawless still too (I am using a screen protector and camera protectors in addition, for obvious reasons, just for the record).The plastic corners get a little scuffed but it's like the scuffy bits come off naturally? Idk, I notice the scuffs kind of disappear, especially visually. And the metal has some small areas of wear (the corners) but no dents or really any marring. The back plastic piece is moderately scratched up but it isn't very visible in use. I have to catch it in the light to see them. And honestly, 100% rather there than on my phone. I have several stickers under the plastic and they are still clear/readable/no yellowing/etc. From the front it looks brand new still.I am extremely impressed with the drop performance. It is fairly equal in protecting my phone to my old favorite Speck case, but honestly this case protects itself/holds up much better. It's a beast. Do it, you won't regret it.
