The cover was enough, and it was not a flip cover! But after edge, you need screen protector and flip cover for best protection.

                  a tough Spiegen. Or maybe even one of the OtterBoxes of the tough kinds. (defender is BEST!) and a tough H9 glass. preferrably slightly heated.

                    I value your experienced opinion with the Galaxy Note 9, particularly how to protect the screen.

                    I'm thinking of getting it with a Spigen Tough Armour case, but when it comes to screen protectors the choice is huge & confusing, I don't mind whether it's film, tempered glass, or even Spigen's GLAS.tR Nano Liquid.

                    Would you recommend any screen protector/ case combination?
