How is the phone held in the cover? Do I have to remove the original S4 back (like you do if you get the Samsung Brand Flip Cover) to put it in this cover?

It pops right into the case. No alterations necessary. If you want to remove the phone from the case you need to start by the power switch first.

Its hold up just fine. .. and yes u have to remove the back From your phone and replace it with the case

I love this case. No you don't have to remove the original cover. It snaps over your phone.

You don't have to remove the back. You just press the phone into the right side of the cover (right side up :) ) and it's secure.

I have an S3, so I can only speak for the case that holds the S3. The phone fits neatly into a strong black case. You do not have to remove anything. Just slide it in and it holds. It has fell several times and it stays in the case instead of spreading out! My phone has chipped a bit at the top but the case so far has not chipped or broken in any way. So for the price I would recommend it.

Yes you have to remove it. And the case doesn't work very good. Only if you're not going to use your phone for a long period. Is very hard to take the case off the phone though

The original back cover does fit and very tightly. I'm comfortable with it because the cover doesn't come off. Its fits well enough to put a case on your phone like otterbox, etc. The original back cover fits snug with a tiny tiny bulge.

Hold the phone on your hand firmly. With the other hand, lift the back cover using the fingertip cutout located on the bottom of the cover and remove it.

I took the back off the phone and put the cover on and the phone still works. You would probably have to be careful with the phone because it does not fit as tight as the actual back.

The cover is held magnetically when it is closed on the screen. However, if you peel it back from the screen it flaps free even if you pull it all the way behind. This is a really beautiful and sturdy case.

I don't have a problem ... You can not wrap cover over back of phone ... I keep cover wide open and use the cover to hold on to stabilize the phone..

The cover is a "wrap around" design. The back and sides are fully covered. The front is partially covered around the edges of the face of the phone. It also comes with a clear screen protector for the face of the phone. Great case, just too tight for the S3, imho.

Yes...you have to remove it, and the flip cover replace that! Fits perfect and allow answer calls with the phone closed

I haven't taken the phone out of the case since I got it, it's not that easy to remove. But it's not awkward at all to talk with the case still on. You just flip the cover to the back so it's out of the way and it's fine.

Mine does not have a flip cover. I think that is only for the commuter series.

you have to take your back off the phone and then snap the phone into the case. It replaces your protective cover on the back

you can take the original back case off and put on the one which is attached to the flip .:)

Sorry for delay! Yes the new cover attaches into the back of the phone as if it were the back cover. Very easy...hope you got your answer prior

Not exactly sure about flip cover. It is a perfect fit for my s5 and otter box commuter cover. I don't think the flip would be any thicker than the otter box commuter. I love this holster with my set up.

I can only speak for my personal dealings with this specific seller, and my experience is that the flip cover received was the actual Samsung flip cover, in the actual Samsung package, brand new without blemish or flaw, for 1/3rd the price. Whether or not they always have this particular Samsung case, I couldn't say. From the reviews that you are speaking of, to which up until now I have been ignorant to, it seems that they may be one of those "hit or miss" sellers; if they have the Samsung, you get it, if not, you get an aftermarket piece. In my opinion, based on my experience, I would go for it.
