Hi Ren,

We’re very sorry to hear that your Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra case has come apart after only four months. This is certainly not the quality or durability we expect from our products.

Our cases are covered by a two-year manufacturing warranty, so we’d be happy to review this and help find a suitable resolution. Please contact us at sales@snakehive.co.uk with a few photos showing the issue, and our team will be glad to assist.

All the best,

Hi there,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We completely understand your concern around return costs, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify how our returns process works.

The service fee shown in our returns portal includes the cost of the prepaid return shipping label provided through the portal. If you prefer to arrange and pay for the return postage yourself using your own chosen courier, you can select the self-shipping option, and the service fee will not apply.

We appreciate you raising this, as we want our returns process to be as clear and straightforward as possible for our customers.

Warm regards,

Bonded cow/pig leather.

Misleading on the quality of the leather, very thin and is bonded cow/pig leather. For the price I was expecting full grain leather (one piece). I paid less for a full grain case for my S23 and it wore beautifully. This new case already has ridges where the leather folds because the two materials don't stretch the same. Feels like a cheaper product. The case does fit the S26 snugly. I don't think the durability is there.

Hi K Garner,

I’m sorry your new case feels like a step down from the one you had for your S23. I understand why the ridges appearing at the fold have left you concerned about how it will wear.

Thank you for raising both the leather description and the construction. We’ll share your feedback with our product team. Please email us at sales@snakehive.co.uk with a photo of the fold so we can take a closer look and help.

"Glass" screen protector wasn't glass.

I bought a glass screen protector, they sent me a plastic screen protector.
I queried it, they told me I was wrong.
I've never seen glass bend, dent or easily scratch like this. Weirdest glass I've ever seen.
The fact that sent me a different product to what was advertised annoyed me. The thing that made me write a bad review was them blaming me and not sending me what I ordered.

Hi Tom,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We’re very sorry to hear how disappointed you have been with your experience, particularly regarding the material of the screen protector you received and how your concerns were handled by our team.

We completely understand why receiving a product that you feel differs from what was advertised would be concerning. We also appreciate your comments regarding our previous communication, and we’re sorry that our response left you feeling that your concerns were being dismissed rather than properly addressed.

We’d really appreciate the opportunity to look into this again and help resolve the matter for you. Please contact our Customer Care Team at sales@snakehive.co.uk, and we’ll be happy to review everything further.

All the best,
