Hi - was wondering if any one here could shed some feedback on their experience, etc., as to which case to get among these two as I think I've narrowed it down to these two.
I've bought one of those $5.95 Amazon cases which is alright, do I gain anything by buying either one of these.
Thanks
wow 5.95 can you share where to buy it a link please for 5.95

I also own this case and I will say that unless you want a little bit of extra drop protection then you have nothing to gain. The button design and cutouts on this case are perfect. The case is not bulky and gives the phone some traction so it doesn't feel like it's going to slip out of your hands.

If you are looking for the best case with the best look, protection, feel and all that, check out the case mate pop. Its a tight fit so taking the phone in and out take some practice. It gets easier with time though. I have the white one.

waiting for otterbox to come up with a defender case. although might be difficult with the shape of the screen
The Tough is awesome. Good protection, good grip and the fit is nice. Just don't expect it to be pretty. If anything, it reminds me of a tire because of the hard shell's texture lol.
Haven't seen the Otterbox in person, so can't comment on that.
I have the otterbox and the case mate and they are both nice but I prefer the case mate because of the textured back which adds TONS of grip to the back opposed the the slick plastic on the otterbox.
They look the same

CASE MATE is my favorite I have 5 cases but the Case Mate Tough Case never leaves my phone(unless i am swapping battery or memory card ). Also i have had quite a few (high) drops and it is still running perfect.
what i like about the otter over the case mate is that the ports are all coverd in the otterbox
waiting for otterbox to come up with a defender case
Me too but I don't think it will come out

I purchased the body glove when i bought the phone, let me say worst 20 dollars i spent ever. The thing broke from the hinge in my pocket. Either one of these to options is better then the BG
Along with amazon, I find ebay to be even cheaper.
Saw and felt the Otterbox Commuter for me its a good case. It has good all over protection of the phone, However the back side of the otterbox is kinda sleeky than the back cover of the sensation.
I personally have the the Otterbox Commuter case for the HTC Sensation, so I cannot comment on the Casemate. I like the Otterbox for the design to protect the phone between the impact case and gel case together for protection, plus the headphone and USB port covers. The hard plastic impact case is not the best for grip, and the gel part of the case is a major magnet for lint from your pocket.
Hope that helps!
Edit: OK, missed something myself. Wanted a charging dock that supports a case, so I bought one. But it won't work very well if there is a USB port cover, so just something extra to consider!
Does anyone know if they updated the Case-mate tough case design, where originally they had the mic above the camera lens covered? I could have sworn I saw a thread where Case-mate said they were going to update their case and just uncover for that one hole. Just curious if anyone has bought it lately and knows.
I got mine in January I think and it still has that hole covered up. Is that hole supposed to be the noise cancellation mic? I'd have to ask my wife if my call quality has gotten worse since getting this case, but knowing her she wouldn't notice anyway lol.
If anything, it's probably not hard to just drill a tiny hole into the casing.
I have the otterbox commutor, and its sad to say. It is the first Otterbox ive owned that im disappointed in. Due to the top and bottom being rounded. After alot of use in your pocket the rubber on top and bottom loosens and sags. I bought the Otterbox the day it came out and overnighted it. I have yet to find a decent replacement.
In no way would i bash Otterbox on this one product. I have owned other cases for Iphone 3gs, Mytouch 4g and Nook Color. ALL cases were some of the best i have seen. Quality if usually above the rest. I think it is the design due to the large about of exposed rubber on top and bottom.
So my flat black tpu case by Diztronic came today and let me tell you it is hands down better than anything out there and I could not be more pleased. I am comparing this to the Rearth slim case I was using and before that I also had the Ebay S line case for a couple days and while that case is also tpu, it is truly ghetto compared to this Diztronic. The fit is perfect and while buttons are covered there is still little effort needed to push them unlike many tpu cases. The feel of the case on the phone is also on the premium side and the matte black back does not attract fingerprints either. The other great feature about this case is the slightly raised lip going around the screen which is just right for anyone wanting to play music/put their phone face down. All of this is had with virtually no added bulk either. I highly recommend this case and know you will be happy with it.

It definitely looks better than the "S" TPU case, but does it offer more protection in your opinion.
It seems from your pics the lips on the front are higher than the ones on the "S"?
How good is the fit? would you say it's tight? Does the case come off easily?
Looks good, might still purchase this, although it looks exactly the same as the I-Blason case I have on my N4 already.
Hows the call quality? People complained about the official N4 bumper ruining the microphone quality so I'm wondering if it happens with this too.
I have one of these on order myself.
Would you say the Diztronic is significantly better than the Ringke Rearth Slim case? I've got the Ringke case and it doesn't fit as tight as it could around the volume rocker, too much play for my liking. Also my girlfriend hates how the four corners stick up a little from the screen (to protect the screen if its face down) she says they poke her in the ear on phone calls... Wish I had bought two of the Diztronic cases now

I don't have a case at all and I have to position the phone in a certain position on my face for anyone to hear me as it is. If a case or bumper further negates from the call quality I am going to have to pass. Even though I already ordered this and it should be here soon.
1. The call quality is not affected I already had two calls with the case on and it sounds great.
2. The lip is raised a bit more than the S case but not overly done, it will not bother you at all
3. This case feels very good on the phone, it is easy to get off it your actually trying to take it off other that that there is no annoying flex from the tpu or anything like the cheap ones (S case)
4. This is much better that the rearth slim because having this on gives me the feeling of better protecting just by how it feels in the hand and protects the entire bezel which a slim case does not do.
I may order the Diztronic shell case when that come out next week too
I think the stock bumper is stupid anyways
Haven't tried any other case for the nexus 4.but this diztronic case is easily the highest quality tpu I've ever used... Feels great. Love it.

it's definitely not the same as the i-blason case. I have two i-blason and the diztronic. the diztronic is sooo much better. i used to use their case on my gnex. very good quality.
Got my case yesterday. It fits nicely, has a good feel and looks pretty good too. Doesn't really add much bulk. The seams on 2 corners on the other hand seem a bit shoddy and looks like it might peel away over time. Curious to know if anyone else's case is like that too. Will contact Diztronic and see what they say.
I'm debating whether I should purchase this case in black or the smoke color
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Just received mine as well, and YES THIS IS THE BEST CASE OUT THERE FOR THE N4 IMO
in every aspect, design, feel, protection this case is definitely the best, glad I bought this case.
Just got one. Great looking case and real nice feel. My XtremeGuard screen protector peels a bit on the corners. Any suggestions on screen protectors that wouldn't have this issue?

I would get the black one, I also thought about the smoke color since it allows you to see the nexus logo on the back which is pretty attractive. But the Distronic logo kinda overlayed the LG logo and that's a no-no for me. But since Distronic has a no-hassle free return policy, you can always return it if you're not satisfied with your purchase.
there I said it.
-fits perfectly
-protects, like seriously
-not too thin, not too thick, just right
-not slippery, adds hand fitting design, holds well
-not fugly too thick for the sake of protection
-doesn't cost an arm and a leg
-isnt a lint or dirt magnet
-nothing crazy like waterproof or seethru
-protects your camera too, and front screen
-won't scratch your bezel
I just have to share this as many of you are still wasting time and money trying out diff cases. I suggest getting yourself a Thor first then knock yourself out with experimenting with all the others if you must. but for now, Thor is the best.
other companies really failed us on this one. they just wanted to release cases faster than they can test them out. turning us into guinea pigs.
Im sure that it doesnt have tech21 material on it. Tech21 cases are probably better than any cases out there and it has evidence with videos..
Pics?
I have to agree about the Tech21 case. I have it and it is light years away from the others I tried. Very nice case for the Note 4.
lol so superb
Agreed with LeoNote4 100%. I haven't removed the case since I got it. Much better feel than the Spigen cases. I have all of the Spigen cases and UAG Scout. May try the Tech21 Impact Tactical.
Anyone know if either of these will fit if I am using the OEM wireless charging cover?
Yes a very nice case and I really like it but I hate to try to find a holster to fit that.

gpo1956...I don't think the case will fit with the charging cover. The note 4 fit with the Thor is tight. Fits like a glove.
Bought the Thor and IronShield Day 1 on Amazon. Loved the Thor soo much bought another. Haven't searched for a new case, nor taken it off since.

at some point, a company has to find the perfect balance over one perfect feature. tech21 major design flaw is it's design. it prides itself and rightly so on total protection of the device. this comes at a huge compromise in design. in addition to that dull appearance, the case also creates a lot of smudge from your hands and fingers. it gets annoying to clean up everytime and it looks too gross to show others.
users would find themselves looking for a case that still provides decent protection, maybe bulletproof is overkill, but just enough safety feature and still covers all the other points. nobody said its perfect in all areas, but what Thor provides is that reasonable balance in design, protection, grip, price without compromising so much on one or two features.
Bought this case in silver on ebay. Selling priced at $23.95(shipping included). This is the best one for the Note 4 so far

Umm except you forgot the fact that its thick and ugly lol. Rinkle slim is my favorite one so far. I mean I got a beautiful looking phone and I'm not gonna put that kind of case on it. But that's just my opinion.

I have the Tech21 Impactology wallet case and the OEM charging back; regrettably it does not fit but it's my favorite case with the normal back cover.
Can anyone using the Verus Thor case recommend, ideally from experience, a good car mount? In part because of the curved sides, it's difficult for me to judge the case's effective width use in a car mount.
TIA

only $16.95 now still worth the money??
I'm still a fan of the Otterbox Defender and the UAG cases. I have used both on my Notes. I don't mind the additional thickness in exchange for protection. I have dropped my Note 3 from chest high onto my concrete driveway with each case and the phone has survived just fine. I have gotten out of my car and forgotten that my phone was in my lap, only to have it drop onto the concrete. No problem!! I have seen all of the video's and listened to the claims of other cases, but I can personally attest to the fact that the 2 cases I have mentioned will protect your investment should you ever drop it.
I'm using a vintage stylish back cover along a SGP tempered glass(9H) for the screen protection,it's good so far,for I'm not get used to the flip cover or wallet cover,it's not convenient as the brief cover as coming calls&messages,which makes it wired and also no good for video watching and daily usage. Besides, the case also with double wallet slot on the back for credit cards etc.,and two slots is enough. The slim design also enjoy another 10 scores, fine match the S6's thickness without make your device a clumsy one.

Is it genuine leather case? Doest it protect the camer (i.e. have a lip near camera or just thicker than the camera)? Is it soft enough inside or is it plastic inside?
I think I could go for it if there were no card holders)

Spiegen neo-hybrid here. Minimal bulk, great grip and feel with metal buttons. I myself feel that screen protectors are unnecessary anymore, as todays gorrila glass does well enough to protect from scratches. A screen protector isn't going to stop a drop-shatter anyways. The neo is the best looking and thinnest of the 5 cases I have, all while providing two-piece drop protection.

I have the same case now. It's ok but it makes my s6 to be the size of my Oneplus One want something less bulkier. As for the screen protectors, I might disagree - tempered glasses save your phone glass from shattering almost always.

I respect your view on tempered glass, I have heard a lot of good things about it. Unfortunately for me, it didnt work so well the one time I needed it to. As far as cases go, the hybrid is about as thin as a current generation (protective) case could be. If you want any thinner, why would you use a case at all?

That's an excellent question, sir!
Firstly, I beleive it will still save the back glass from shattering if I drop my phone (and I know I will drop it some day, always happens to me when after the honey moon I become more and more careless with the new toy).
Secondly, I afraid to much for the camera lens, which just waaaay too protruding to be safe, imo and also very weak according too AndroidAuthority review. (rly samsung? for 700 bucks your could not go for saphire glass on the protruding camera lens?)
My concerns with the camera lens are the same as yours, but we can't change the design of the S6. I don't think sapphire lense would help too much either. More costly, interferes with clarity, and still breaks.
I'm using the UAG case. Love this thing. Very very slim and provides the best protection for my phone out of all the cases I've owned. UAG cases might be on the top end of costs ($30-35) but it is built to last
I used a Spigen neo hybrid, but I ended up with a UAG as well
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00TRG8KGO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
This leather sleeve which fits perfectly. Pretty tight actually, so no risk of your phone falling out I guess. Great quality leather and finishing I must say, they're all handmade. Price is a bit steep but you do get what you pay for and honestly, if you spend this amount of money on a phone you might as well spend some money on protecting it.
I thought about buying on of those Spigen cases which look slick, but then I thought; Samsung finally made a phone with a finish worth looking at and holding in your hand when using it, why hide that in a case?

How do you like the neo hybrid. I ordered the same one. Is the rubber really soft or is it a firm rubber that won't really stick in your pocket?

Galaxy S6 Edge Plus Case, Spigen® [Thin Fit] Exact-Fit [Black] Premium Matte Finish Hard Case for Galaxy S6 Edge+

God I was hoping iwouldbt see this. You do realize when you say "sexy" in reference to a phone case it immediatelymakes me think of glasses and a pocket protector right? How about cases are not sexy....ugh
This is the Black Otter Box Symmetry
Dont really like it. The power button is sort of hard to press, and the bottom ports are not covered.
However it does fit snug, and feels good in the hand. Edge screens are fully in view, and easy to access.
I'm waiting for the clear case to arrive next week. The only way to show off its attractive, premium design.
One of the BEST cases (maybe it is actually the best)
After shopping around almost all day yesterday and checking out a lot of cases I have
found that only one case meets my requirements.
I wanted good protection but did not want the case to look like it's made for a war zone!
The other cases were either flimsy, hardly any real protection and some of them were not precision enough
to allow the usb cable to plug into the phone easily without having to wiggle/jiggle the usb cable connector.
Also I did not want to get a two piece case which adds a lot of bulk without adding a lot of extra protection.
So finally I found this Otter Semmetery case which alleviated all my concerns. ($49.95)
This Otter case does not interfere with the phone's Edge panel at all, not even
slighty. (which was not the case when checking out a lot of the other cases.)
It's a one piece case but it is a lot sturdier than any of the two piece cases I checked out.
The material it's made out of is not the easily bendable TPU but it's no where near as stiff
as the hard plastic cases. It's somewhere around half as flexible when compared to the TPU.
Another plus is that the inside of the case feels like it has a soft rubber coating.
Here are some pictures of the case:
Have a great day!
