Glad you showed it sticking to metal surfaces and not just to other accessories. I bough the mous case for my s23 ultra nad am let down that the magnet isn't strong enough to snap it to metal equipment like a fridge or gym equipment. This case seems much better.
What sucks about the MagSafe accessories for the s23U is the fact that it covers a piece of the bottom camera. It doesn't show the blockage when taking a photo but from an ascetic view, it looks off and horrible. Which it was made for Samsung
MagBak customer service stated that the MagBak wallet will not block the 10MP telephoto lens that it appears to partially intrude upon. I have found that to be true. Although this does imho slightly affect the overall aesthetics/appearance, an unintended benefit is that the attached wallet may be more protective of the rear camera lens(es) during any impact or fall. I agree that at its high price point the wallet ought to fit the form factor of the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra phone better. However, I still love the MagBak case and wallet (and wireless car charger!).
Very nice case. Currently using a UAG Monarch Kevlar Pro but I'm considering this one. Minimalistic look. I wonder if I can get these here in the Philippines.
I was so sold on this concept. I invested 100.00 in case wallet and extra magnets etc, Complete waste of money for me - No 1 speaks on the weight added due to this case. Wow - weight is sooooo heavy that it is uber uncomfortable to carry or use. Weight nearly doubled that of phone itself. Case does what it claims and is of good quality... but the weight is absolutely unbearable. Thanks
What am I doing wrong? I have this case, with the same sticker on the indie of the case. It will not attach to any OhSbap products. The one you used in the shower or the wireless charger. And what I mean is, it will not stick on and not fall off. It charges, but I can't drive around with it.
Very nice review, and as a bonus I got to know the wallet! It looks awesome! I've read on Reddit that the magnets on this particular case messes a bit with the OIS of the zoom camera. Did you notice this?
5:10 - "the camera is not going to be touched. It's embedded in there.". ... that is, until we get to the real world of gravel, pebbles, and other non-flat ground surfaces, which basically covers most of the earth's surface. The drop at 5:43 is so unrealistic - that would have been a cracked screen if instead of a perfectly flat table that was a real world surface like asphalt, or a tile floor with less than perfect corners, or concrete, or gravel, or rocks, or any uneven surface. I own the UB Pro case you show at 6:15, and while in that case, one of my S23 Ultra phone's camera cover glass faces broke, even though my phone dropped very gently onto soft ground from only 2 ft up. Yeah, a pebble on that soft ground happened to hit the camera glass. Turns out you don't need to "throw it against the wall" or "run over it with a truck". Whenever you have a much heavier phone, its own momentum destroys itself when it hits a hard surface. I'd estimate the UB Pro case has 2x to 3x the raised lip around the cameras that the MagBak case has. The S23 Ultra's camera cover glass is super thin and prone to shattering. And you can't just replace the single camera glass...you have to replace the entire back of the phone. Yeah, the repair cost me $120.
Hey there, great video, but had a question about the wallet. Magbak claims you can still mount your phone in the car using Magsticks, but I have the Ohsnap car mount, would the wallet attached to magsafe case still mount to a magsafe mount in car or does it have to be a Magstick special mount?
That is a no. It doesn't have the magsafe array on the back of the wallet. I am in the habit of popping it off when I need to mount it to something magsafe.
@@GottoGetitDone hey just wanted to let you know I got this wallet last week and it does actually mount to the OhSnap car mount in the car with the wallet on the back of the phone which is awesome!!! You do have to move it slightly down on the mount but works great and is another awesome feature to be able to mount the phone with the wallet on it in the car. There is a magsafe strip built in to the top of the wallet I believe which allows this.
Hello have you using lens protector with this case? Hope you notice my comment.. im hesitant buying bc i am not sure if it will fit with the lens protector.
How strong do normal magsafe accessories attach compared to the magbak wallet? Since the magbak wallet has additional magnets on the sides, I can imagine it's strong. For example how was your magsafe ohsnap or if you have others such as the popsockets magsafe as well, would love to know
I will say that Magsafe is much stronger when using a compatible case. The oh snap still requires some sticky stuff to ensure it sticks good. Magsafe is pretty strong but it is still designed to be removed so strong but not to strong.
Hi, I have a question. I want to use the Peak Design Mobile Tripod with my S23 ultra but I'm not sure wich case is the best for magsafe. I heard that the Magbak Case has stronger Magnets but will it work as good as the Peak Design Case with the tripod? Thanks to everyone that will answer to me :)
@@GottoGetitDoneso i been looking at all these magsafe cases, and just learned about them messing with antennas, batteries, spen, compass. So you know if these are “permanent” problems? Or only temporary?
Another potential problem is the OIS system of the cameras. This case in particular might be even more problematic due to the vertical and horizontal arrays of magnets placed close to the cameras.
@GottoGetitDone thank you. Will this really work with samsung s23u? Does it have fast charge? The one I bought from Apple said it was 15 watts and people were saying it worked with samsung so I bought it to test it out I plug it in and my phone says it'll take 2 hours 52 minutes to charge to 85 percent and it was at 35 percent at the time and I left it there for 20 minutes and it was still on 35 percent and the time remaining increased to 2 hours 55 minutes. Will I have the same issue with this one?

Perfect! Buying an S23 Ultra this afternoon and will order the Magbak! Tutorial was excellent. Thanks! Freddy
ok so i have the mous case. so the question - is this better than the mous?
Man that galaxy watch looks so good
Is that the latest version!? More than likely hey.
How to make mine like this
You forgot the link for the wallet review video.
What sucks about the MagSafe accessories for the s23U is the fact that it covers a piece of the bottom camera. It doesn't show the blockage when taking a photo but from an ascetic view, it looks off and horrible. Which it was made for Samsung
It definitely does look a bit off when they are on there.

Awesome video dude, just safed some time using your code instead of signing up for the supid NL. Greetings from Germany
Hey just so you know, you forgot to put a link to the magbak wallet in the description
What shower mount is that? Also what when protector are you using with this? Great review!
Does this case protect the sides of the screen?
because I want to buy it now just am Really hesitant on getting this case for this reason
Hi, thanks for the review. i just bought one! And can you tell me whats the name of the strap for your galaxy watch? Cool looking strap.
What mount do you use that you showed that goes above the screen in your car?

this case makes the phone so heavy compared to the mous case
Hi man, which smartwatch case are you using?

Nice review! Do you know if the case interferes with the microphone that is on the wide camera lens ring?
Good question. Unfortunately I don't have the answer. I will have to look into that.
@Got to Get it Done any word on this question yet? Great review by the way.
Where did you get the dual charger by your bed? Work with Samsung watch 5 pro?
Hey does the o-mag spigen holder fits on the magbak?
What screen protector do you use with this case?
Does the spen work with the case? Not asking when the accessory is attached. Just with the case ?
Pen works just fine with the case on.
Love your videos. Question do you have a video up for that galaxy watch band you are using in this video?
Thanks! Yes that band should be in this video. ua-cam.com/video/_aTqzF8ps00/v-deo.html
Hey, thanks for the video. Does it also stick on Gym-Eqipment like pure metal?
Yes sure does. One of the more handy uses for it.

Fantastic!
I wonder if that shielding works ok with the NFC for wireless payments?
Good question. I have not tried it with payments yet but it does work with NFC tags which makes me think it should work fine with payments.
I use it every day no problem
Is the wallet rdif (scanproof)
I just got one. Its nice but feels very heavy with the phone in it
Hello have you using lens protector with this case? Hope you notice my comment.. im hesitant buying bc i am not sure if it will fit with the lens protector.
I don't have a lens protector on there so sorry I can't say either way.
Magbak or Rokform?
I want edge protection just because when u apply a screen protector it becomes higher than the edges
How strong do normal magsafe accessories attach compared to the magbak wallet? Since the magbak wallet has additional magnets on the sides, I can imagine it's strong. For example how was your magsafe ohsnap or if you have others such as the popsockets magsafe as well, would love to know
I will say that Magsafe is much stronger when using a compatible case. The oh snap still requires some sticky stuff to ensure it sticks good. Magsafe is pretty strong but it is still designed to be removed so strong but not to strong.
Pretty sure this is 2nd strongest after rockform. Or almost on par atleast.
@@datdudeinred that's good to know, don't want to get the rokform however as it messes up the spen
@@ramtan1146thanks for that tid bit, I was just about to look up Rockform as a potential alternative to this case
yo fresh ass wallpaper love it sir. how do i get
Hi, I have a question. I want to use the Peak Design Mobile Tripod with my S23 ultra but I'm not sure wich case is the best for magsafe. I heard that the Magbak Case has stronger Magnets but will it work as good as the Peak Design Case with the tripod? Thanks to everyone that will answer to me :)
Unfortunately I am not familiar with the Peak Design but MagBak definitely has a strong hold.
@@GottoGetitDone does it has magnets only in the edge or it has magnets all over the middle part of the case?
Very cool case!by the way which brand your watch?
That is the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro.
Thanks
What charger is this? @8:27 ? I need this
where did u get that watch band？
Should be a Hitzee from Amazon. amzn.to/4a9Yi7u
Can you please test the compass if it still works fine?
Ok I checked out the compass. It definitely messes with it. It becomes jumpy and about 10 degrees off.
@@GottoGetitDoneso i been looking at all these magsafe cases, and just learned about them messing with antennas, batteries, spen, compass. So you know if these are “permanent” problems? Or only temporary?
@@andrewa8569they should be temporary cause its just interfering with the signal. I'm basing this conclusion on my know of emr technology
Another potential problem is the OIS system of the cameras. This case in particular might be even more problematic due to the vertical and horizontal arrays of magnets placed close to the cameras.
i love the bulky one 😢
Is this case grippy or slick?
I would say grippy.
@@GottoGetitDone Thanks! I'll pick it up for the S24U.
Anyone have any clue if this works with esr camera lense protectors?
Yes it works. Close, very close but it works. I used it for a while but the lens covers covered my zoom microphone.
It works alright, not perfectly but it is something you can overlook over time.
Whats the strongest case out of Magbak, UAG Metropolis, Pitaka for the s23 Ultra?? I want a the strongest hold with a wallet??
Magbak
Shame the wallet covers part of the camera (D'oh)
8:33 it won't work.. again
This case won't mess up the phone?
No. Phone functions like normal.
Im seeing now that magsafe accessories are causing issues with compass and spen. Shame
I bought the case now all I need is that charger
That charger is a pricey one from Belkin. amzn.to/3Y9toGE
@GottoGetitDone thank you. Will this really work with samsung s23u? Does it have fast charge? The one I bought from Apple said it was 15 watts and people were saying it worked with samsung so I bought it to test it out I plug it in and my phone says it'll take 2 hours 52 minutes to charge to 85 percent and it was at 35 percent at the time and I left it there for 20 minutes and it was still on 35 percent and the time remaining increased to 2 hours 55 minutes. Will I have the same issue with this one?
so if you loose your phone you loose your wallet as well ?
that's brilliant ..........
But you don't need a cards wallet for Samsung phone.😂
The case isn't grippy enough
I'm thinking about putting a magstick in the shower do you think that would hold up?
Oh yeah should work good for that.
make it whiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite!!!!
I really, really want to like this case bc of the discreet, magnetic back but dang it, where's the purple option? 🫤
