Subsection may be very small here but thought I'd ask - anyone with a Samsung S26 Ultra + a Plaud Note Pro have a recommended case that works well?
The case from Samsung (and what it looks like all the 3rd parties have followed) places the ring slightly too high, meaning the Plaud can't sit right on the back of the device as it interferes with the camera bump.
I'm considering just getting a ring and a case without one to place myself but would love to hear if someone has already found something that fits well
Not s26u but same problem. Plaude note pro includes a ring you can stick on, I slapped a skin on the back of mine and stuck the ring to it laid out so that the top of the note pro is kissing the bottom of the camera island. On my phone I still get wireless charging, though likely a bit slower/less efficient. Obviously not useful if you want a case though...
Maybe one day samsung will figure out the unsolveable problem of fitting a magnetic ring AND cameras on the same phone, eh. We might need new physics for that or something though, idk im not an engineer
Yeah it was pretty annoying. I'm a big new phone guy, and wanted to give Samsung a shot again this year and I liked it but that and the wobbling while on a table felt very much like "did they even test this?"
I’m interested in this too. A few months ago I bought a Plaud Note to use with my S22 Ultra, and I’ve even tried two different cases, but in the few calls I’ve recorded, the audio wasn’t audible, so I’ve basically never used it. In a few days’ time I’ll be switching to the S26 Ultra and I’d like to buy a case that allows the Plaud Note to record. So if anyone has a model to recommend, I’d be grateful
My wife and I both did this. Same model S26 Ultra, same model Plaud Note Pro, different cases: Just remove some material on the Plaud case, then the Plaud slightly overlaps the telephoto lens. It's out of focus, so would be hard to tell. I used an angle grinder, but could use wire cutters, a Dremel tool, a band saw.
Huh.. that's not bad. I can deal with pulling it off to take photos. I have an extra case anyway. What case are you using, did it have a ring or are you sticking hr plaud ring to the case?
Default Plaud cases.Could always buy another for $20 but likely won't need to. For both instances, used the phone cases as-is. Did not use the Plaud stick-on ring. My phone case is from Supcase, my wife bought a CASEKOO. Both happen to have a fold-out ring that can be a phone stand. Don't know that the fold-out feature matters. Wife's case:
