I have the Diztronic and I'm pleased with it. I've bought Cruzerlite in the past too and they are also very good.
Check out the Poetic cases on Amazon as well. That's my personal favorite right now.

Good luck getting a tpu or snap on case that doesn't muffle the rear speaker. I have the diztronic one in clear, and it almost killed the volume, I can barely hear the phone ring.

I have a couple of options. I like Diztronic, Acase (extra protection) and Tudia. I made some videos on youtube, This is the acase http://youtu.be/CcmS-pvQtdM. this is the http://youtu.be/TC6krrzUjfE, this is the tudia http://youtu.be/LtIMUNYlQdA I have others but these are my favorites

I got a Cimo one ... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BLQIIM4/ref=oh_details_o08_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Quality is pretty good, however it's supposed to be clear but it looks very very white. Also thicker than my father-in-laws "official samsung thin case" that he has on his s3, but it protects the screen if you turn it over which is nice.

Check out DBA ultra cases...slim profile of a tpu paired with hard PC shell plus they come in many color combinations...the s4 prototypes are still being tested but I'm sure they'll b on par with the note 2 ultra pc's which i have...

I second that. I've had Diztronic cases in the past and they've never let me down. I like them way more than the S-Line cases.

Recommend me a case

I am a casual user. I want a case that is well-built, will last long, gives adequate protection, yet does not add much bulk. Originally, I liked the Neo Hybrid, but after some more research, I read that it is not very well-built as the outer layer breaks at the USB cable port.
I don't usually drop my phone, but it happens. I'd like the case to be aesthetically pleasing too.
Thanks.
Also, what case colors would go well with a black S4?

I too was disappointed with the neo hybrid. The style is awesome but with it breaking at the thin spot above the USB port and the color flaking off is a big issue. Sad too that the customer service is one of the worst in the industry.
I have been looking for something like it but haven't made my mind up yet.

grangth the
I'm using the samsung protective cover + now. I like the way it feels in the hand a lot more than the neo hybrid case

I have the spigen slim aromor and its awesome!! I just got a poetic atmosphere from Amazon and will be rocking that for a while!!
It was 9 bucks, super thin and has a nice lip for face down screen protection. Looks sick on my white s4!!

I'm on the hunt as well. I might still get the NEO though. I've only seen a couple people complain about the brake point and you never know how hard people are on there phones.
The others I'm thinking about:
UAG - Might be too bulky and "industrial" looking though. Has reviews on xda.
supcase - I'm not sure if I like the style, but I don't think it will be very bulky. Has reviews on xda.
puregear dualtek - I think the fat corners might be too bulky on this one, but gets good-ish reviews on amazon
obliq xtreme pro - kinda like a mix of the spigen armor and the uag.... still might be too industrial for me though. Has reviews on xda.
acase Acase makes some decent stuff for the price... I've owned an acase before for a tablet. This kinda looks like an incipio clone.
cruzerlite - cheap and has good amazon reviews.... might have reviews on xda... I can't remember.
I'm very much leaning towards the NEO. I'll buy it w/ a credit card (credit cards add a year extension to your warranty, did you know that?) through amazon. If I have any issues w/ it and spigen doesn't respond, I'll go through those channels (which are pretty fast).
If there is a spigen father's day sale this weekend... I'll get the NEO... otherwise I may not.
Whats your thoughts?

Yea the neo hybrid is very nice I have it on my phone. I was gonna get an otterbox but it added way to much bulk.

I have a UAG and love it. Had one for my s3, iPhone 5, and now for my s4. Every one has been better than the one before.
Their customer service is awesome as well. I'll probably a customer for life. :thumbup:

If you want no bulk, you can go for PARFITI case.
Tunewear also gets some slim cases.
see what colors you want.
I am more into eye catching color. So I have ordered one from PARFITI. Awaiting to it

Go for a UAG case, they are awesome protection and don't add too much bulk. The Spigen cases look nice (slim armor and neo hybrid) but I don't think they offer much protection against drops. I have the Slim Armor and never used it as I feel I will crack my screen if I drop my phone screen first. Uag highly recommended by me

I think people are obsessed with protection.
I just received the Neo Hybrid and it seems to be a perfect armor. At least, for a daily protection. Actually, for me it's too thick: the bumper is like 3mm while in the front and back it's just 0,8mm, which is perfect because it makes the screen and the camera not to touch any surface.

try on of them in the list at the link.. Otter are very good case company their case comes

Are there keyboard flip cases out there?

just posted this in its own thread but you should check it out

I originally bought the Neo Hybrid myself, and I really liked the looks and size, but the one fault I couldn't look over was that it didn't fit my favorite gym headphones. I would've kept the case if it wasn't for that.
I went with the Slim Armor. It adds slightly more bulk thickness wise, but it's actually a little less wide. Not sure if it was because of the color combination of the Neo Hybrid (dante red), but the Slim Armor (metal slate) actually looks smaller.

Ahem.. Sorry. I would go for the Aegis case. It's covering everything and looks more protective to me. Good luck!
Sent from my HTC One X+ using xda premium

I have the Aegis case, the only thing TRIDENT need is to revise is the screen protector that comes with it, is to make a cutout for the earpiece to fit the GT-N5100. Otherwise, case is highly recommended.

I have the kraken for my S3 and love it. It adds a lot of bulk. If you use your note in an active situation or work in a physical job and use it in the field, I would get it. If you are an office worker or generally good with your fragile gadgets then go with some thing like a folio cover.

I have Kraken for my Htc one x and I love it ..But for note it has a big hole for the attachment thats why I am thinking

I got this case when I got the 8 with my S4 from at&t combo sale:

It's a great case granted you don't have to take pics but that's what the S4 is for. Very protective from all side and I'm sure you can find it chapter elsewhere. The rep at the sore hooked it up so I got this case and the one for the S4 for free.

Trident Kraken Case review:
I have kraken case for htc one x and I am very happy with it but samsung note 8 case is the worst kraken case ..Build quality is very poor,Screen protector has small dots which make it rough when using the screen,ports cutouts are very lose,infrared port is not covered and finally speaker cutouts are towards upwards which I didn't expect.
.
Tablet holder:
Its made up of poor quality .While rotating it feels like its gonna break ..
Totally disappointed returning the product and I am back to poetic revolution case

Let's talk Otterbox.

I have a pink/grey commuter case from otterbox. I have loved otterbox since my first case years ago. I may be off here but it seems to me they're getting a little shotty quality wise. My rubber seems to turn brown and attract every piece of dirt within a mile of it and now, I have just found, the pink has bled into the white on my phone and stained it. Is this the phone or the case being substandard here? I do love otterbox but I'm thinking its time to move on. What case can I look to for the same protection and reliability? What's the best/worst phone case in your opinion?

I'm a big fan of the Spigen Slim Armor and Spigen Neo Hybrid cases for this phone. High quality, fits like a GLOVE, not bulky at all, look great, and don't have the big lips like the otterbox that make dragging down the notification panel a hassle. Check out their site but buy from amazon, I think you can get the slim armor on amazon for less than 15 bucks at the moment.

I use an otterbox commuter for my s4 and it doesnt interfere with notifications panel at all.(that happens in the s2 commuter case)
Dunno about other colors but my black is holding up pretty good to daily abuse.

Using Spiegen Slim Armor and View.
He gives better design but I'm thinking the Otterbox have better protection if you drop it unfortunately.
Well it's dépend if you take care about your phone or not.

These cases are built for war to thick for me. I tried it for a week and ordered me a smaller case. These cases are perfect for people who drop there phone alot there well built but I rather have an extended battery and a case if I'm gonna make my phone this bulky.

Otterbox makes my phone feel like a brick so I went with spigen neo hybrid. Complete coverage and a little lip.

Just got a gift from a friend, Otterbox Commuter for S4, everything looks fine but the cutout for charging below the case seems not so accurate.

After the disaster which is the S3 Otterbox Defender, I have refused to recommend any Otterbox product to anyone. (the silicon would just keep stretching out of shape)
My GF's S3 Commuter fared slightly better with none of the silicone issues but the plastic shell cracked the first time she dropped the phone...
Fast forward to today... we're both using S4s and couldn't be happier with our Ballistic SG Maxxes. Truly a marvelous case which takes impacts and drops like a champ! The design of the S4 version is a little skimpy up top though but so far so [email protected]

I work in construction so I have a Defender on my s4. Holding up great so far. Thinking about picking up another smaller case for weekends.

Spigen Slim Armor
I have been using the Otterbox Commuter cases over the last year and have been really happy with them. However I recently got the Blue Spigen Slim Armor and it is really impressive how it fits, quality of construction, buttons are easy to push, fits perfect and looks are better than anything I have seen thus far. Plus it matches my Grabber Blue Mustang GT. hahaha Really impressed with it.:good: So far it is the best case I have had on any phone in the last 10 years.

I really like my green commuter. It fits well and looks pretty cool. The construction of the case seems very tight; on some past otterboxes, it's seemed a bit "stretchy" and not as formfitting right out of the box, but this one is very nicely done. My only gripe was the charger cutout was too small, but a kitchen knife and some diligence solved that problem rather quickly.

I had a similar problem with the charging port on my marine/dark blue commuter case. I didn't want to carve up the case, so I just ground the plug down a little with my dremel tool. I figured if I screwed it up I could always get another OEM charger. So far it works fine. I ground down to metal, but a quick check with Galaxy Charging Current shows that my charge values are unaffected. Is this a common problem with the Otterbox Commuter?
My first thought was that I got a fake one, but the box had the hologram sticker on top, website on back, sku sticker on bottom. The silicone lining seems firm and tight with no sagging. Most of the fake vs real videos on youtube stressed the cheap and floppy silicone lining in the fake Otterboxes. Mine seems fairly stiff and fits well.

I was originally eyeing off the commuter cases but after reading the whole screen cracking thread, I went with the defender. This is possibly the best case I've ever had on a smartphone. The plastic inside shell is fairly sturdy which I love because I carry my phone in my pocket all the time and I was worried about having torsion dmg.
P.S: I'm also looking at getting the neon blue spigen slim armor but I'm still not convinced on the sturdiness yet. I so do not want to have to go through samsung warranty for anything. ~_~

Recommend a good belt clip holster?

Can anyone recommend a decent belt clip holster? Ideally something reasonably light weight.
I've always loved the $20 verizon belt clip holsters for all of my earlier phones. Something similar would be great!

There is a thread on Seidio Holster - http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/accessories/seidio-case-holster-t3198486
Note 4 and Note 5 Seidio holsters seem to fit. I'm currently using LG G3 Seidio Surface Holster temporarily.

I just bought one for my wife at the Verizon store today. It fits just a little tight with the bumper. Don't mind the dirty garage floor.

Read the Seidio case / holster thread. The Seidio holster is the best holster on the market.

No clue but reminds me of cases that Verizon sells. My brother-in-law had a case like that for his Droid a few years back. It was impossible to remove the case, the kickstand felt cheap and flimsy and removing the phone from the case was difficult as well.
