Amazon.com: Customer reviews: UAG Samsung Galaxy S10 [6.1-inch Screen] Monarch [Carbon Fiber] Military Drop Tested Phone Case

Product came promptly and exactly as listed. This is my second S10 case and my ninth UAG case, and couldn't be more pleased with it. It is slim, comfortable to hold, non-slip grip and has a very eye pleasing design. It is a very well built unit. This is an excellent high quality brand and I will be sticking with it. I've tried the other top line brands but this one definitely works best for me.

Durable and attractive

You get Mil-spec durability without a clunky, boxy body. Update; it has been 3 years. The case still provides protection, however it is starting to show wear as the edges are starting to stretch a little bit. I am still pleased with the purchase, it gets plenty of abuse and protects the phone. Every month I wash it with hot soapy water and dry it well.

Excellent case for a S10. Well worth the price.

It arrived on time and was exactly as described. I have now used it on my new Galaxy S10 for 2 days. It is easy to put on and fits perfectly. It seems very secure and well made. I knocked the phone phone off the table on to a tile floor and it landed face down without a scratch or any sign of the drop.

solid case but pricey, too few color options, no leather in the carbon fiber version

i had uag's plasma case in ice for my s7e the past couple of years, not the most attractive (bulky, industrial) but i chose to sacrifice appearance for protection (and the clear ice at least showed some of the phone's back). having ordered the s10 i knew it was even more important to protect my device so i went straight back to uag, and decided to invest in the monarch based on heaps of compelling reviews for the series, though the price gave me pause. now that it's on i can report that it's a slimmer/smaller and better-fitted case than the plasma, and does feel and look a bit more "premium," albeit still industrial. (i'm not a girly girl but these cases still seem to cater to an extra rugged look dudes would prefer.) the sides have a nice soft grippy feel and the phone does seem well-protected, so i'll be more worried about the pre-installed screen protector failing than the case.

since i can't show off my phone's pretty prism blue back i do wish there were at least more color options. the crimson, black, and carbon fiber are all on the harsh side and only emphasize the case's industrial appearance. please note that the carbon fiber version does not have leather like the black and crimson, i wrote to uag to ask because the back felt only like extremely stiff plastic, while reviewers had talked about how nice the leather felt. a uag rep confirmed there is no leather in the carbon fiber, instead it has vinyl. too bad. either way the finish is very smooth, hopefully the back won't scratch easily just from normal use, pocket friction, etc., that would be a big bummer. if it does i'll update this review (and see about making use of the 10-year warranty). the sides of the case also slightly covered the edge lighting, but setting the lighting to max width was enough to offset the case coming up that high. i guess that'll be more of a battery drain, but oh well.

i don't know if this case is really worth $60 compared to the more reasonable but still pricey $40 plasma case, but given how expensive the phone is i figure i shouldn't mess around with trying less rigorously tested cases, even if they are less pricey and more aesthetically appealing. there is something to be said for peace of mind.

Durable, Protective, and Lightweight

I use UAG gear cases exclusively and have for years. I drop my phone regularly, and these cases have kept me from getting cracks in the screen or other damage. The little rubber shock absorbers make all the difference, allowing for a lightweight case that isn't hard, bulky, or heavy like OtterBox and other similar cases built for durability.

Overall a good case. Looks real good and made tough. I felt it was a bit pricey since I didn't know the brand. But definitely a high quality item

Awesome case but not $60 awesome

Pricing: This case is not worth what it costs. Element sells cases of made of billet aluminum and carbon fiber for a few dollars more, and they're infinitely higher quality.

Quality: The case is decent, but the hardware is a joke. They're poorly cast and chromed, so they not only look cheap, they stick out like a sore thumb too. It's also important to note that they are a fake Torx drive, so I wouldn't put any faith in them actually being too functional. The carbon fiber is real and looks very nice. The TPU of the case is on par with any TPU case. Could be $5, could be $50. Same stuff.

Final word: This is a $30 case that's worth buying for $60 simply because it has no competition. If Element comes out with a flagship case for the S10, this one will be replaced the next day. If not, keeping this one certainly won't bug me.

This is the 3rd UAG case I've purchased. I went through 2 of them with my Samsung Galaxy S6, and didn't think of switching brands when I upgraded to the Galaxy S10. Through the years of using this case, I've dropped my phone several times and have never had a cracked screen or even a scratch.
