Even not charging, Spen will not work. You can write around the corners but that's about it. I bought two ESR magsafe cases with kick stand and both gave me the same results. I ended up bought a torras.
Beware that the flickstand case messes up the S-pen... you can't use it with the case on. Other than that, it's a nice case. I been using it cause the 2 I got for free from Samsung kinda suck. One is very slipery (shield case) and the other has the bottom of the phone exposed (gadget case) I ordered a clear Spigen Zero One and it's great too.
I put a piece of paper between the case and the cellphone and the s-pen works fine now. It's not a very classy workaround but it works and I really liked the case.
9:16 Hii.. please check the Inner frame of the case.. ESR KICKSTAND ARMOUR SERIES CASE ( without magsafe ) ..the cut out of the volume key slot is not matching with the SAMSUNG S24 ULTRA's volume key... SAMSUNG S24 ULTRA's volume key is a single long button..but the ESR frame has two button slot type which obstruct with the fitment of the phone in the frame.. I am sure nobody noticed it. Never expected such a design failure from a brand like ESR.. DO CHECK THE VOLUME KEY SLOT CUT OUT IN THE BOTH FRAMES .. IT WILL NOT MATCH WITH THE PHONE'S VOLUME KEY 9:16
I just got the S24 ultra and the armor case. It fits fine as the inner frame has a notch cut to fit the volume rocker. No issues and allows for tactile feedback on the up and down volume buttons.
Does the Camera bump protection lead to the phone wobbling while it is laying on its back? Or does the Flickstand counter-act it? Otherwise great and informative video. Thank you!
I just got this case in yesterday to try. For the most part, the kickstand on the bottom does counteract the camera bump. The reason I say for the most part is because the kickstand bump is taller than the camera bump, so the phone doesn't lay completely flat. The bottom is slightly higher than the top. I hope that helps.
@MPKratz you're welcome. One thing I did notice with this case is that even though you have a plastic frame on before you put the it in the case, I could still see a sliver of the phone frame. I know that it says it exceeds military drop protection, and it may. In hand it seems thinner than some other cases I tried. I also wish the lip around the camera was a little bigger too. For me, I feel more confident in Poetic cases. Normally I have been a Spigen Tough Armor person, but I think I'm team Poetic now.
Great content. So ESR stopped making the shock armor case with the camera kickstand 😢, I am using it on my s23 ultra. I think it's the best designed kickstand on the market. And I have a lot of cases with kickstand s. For instance, supcase unicorn beetle pro, or I-Blason Armorbox or poetic spartan . These are the ones I feel are the best. But the shock armor case has the best kickstand.
Great video but i don't trust esr I had one of there cases for my s23 ultra and I literally only dropped the phone once with the case in and it didn't protect my screen at all
ESR Armour Screen / Military Grade/Private/ Sreen Protector is not good enough, I use it and last only 4 days. The sealant is not good enough... especially in S 24 Ultra and iPhone 15 Pro Max. Bad Product. It wears off in a few days on the side making it unusable. Get Spigen as it has good sealant....
Don't buy any esr cases or screen protectors for s24 ultra. They don't work properly. with screen protector, finger print scan doesn't work properly. with esr magsafe case, Spen doesn't work properly. These are highly priced but not helpful on any direction. better to go with some other products after testing thoroughly.
