I was excited to get this case after purchasing my new S23 Ultra to keep it safe. Once I received it, I placed my phone inside the case and I noticed that my microphone was not picking up sounds when I recorded videos. I took my phone out of the case to test it and it worked fine. I once again placed it into the case, and I had the same issue. I did this a few times and I got the same results every time. While this case does seem to protect it very well, the downfall is that it will also put pressure on your microphone and you won't be able to record sounds. Another thing I did not like about the case is the fingerprint sensor cover. Although the front of the case looks sleek, you have a circle print in your case where the sensor cover is. (I will attach what I mean in a photo)
