So i went and bought a couple of cases after destroying my first GS4, i had the Incipio Dual Pro on my phone from sprint http://shop.sprint.com/mysprint/shop/accessory/ao_details.jsp?accSKU=74100061&accCatId=acc9003cat
& it didn't do nothing, basically my 7 month old daughter got a hold of my phone, tried to eat it and then chuck it at the wall.
My LCD had a fine crack and then it started to bleed, i was using a body glove(http://shop.sprint.com/mysprint/shop/accessory/ao_details.jsp?accSKU=74100052&accCatId=acc9003cat) at the time i dropped it off getting out of my car and that took the screen out.
long story short, i found myself a screen for really cheap and replaced it and went and bought a couple of new cases, i figure i review them and maybe find a new cool case i haven't come across.
So here is my GS4 i put Invisibleshield Extreme on my phone, not really happy with it since i thought it would be Anti-Glare and Fingerprint resistant, its not, i got the screen protector for free so i can't really complain, but i am going to anyways!

Bought myself a UAG AERO(i had UAG on my note 2, but was looking to try new things & it didn't work out too well)
so far my favorite case for everyday use out of everything, its really light, grip is good and really protects from everyday drop and use.
Also went and bought a Dualtek, use this case anytime im working in shop, outside or when running, this case is great, i threw it down couple of stairs by mistake and phone had no damage, my only issue is that it make the phone feel heavy and big compared to UAG AERO.
see pics and let me know what you think!
First of all, nice review and nice picture.
I have few concerns and question about DualTek case, how do you feel about the button - are they easy to push? and how is the side bumper - does they collect lint/dust easily?
Thanks for taking time to look and reply.
I read the dualtek will eventually leave marks on the GS4's backcover from the rubber lining on the inside.
Is that Zagg protector a dry or wet install? The ones I know of are wet installs.

Its cheapish and protects the back from scratching. Got one today and fitted it on easy just waiting for 24hours as suggested before I see better results.
From the feel of it, its the soft rubber type plastic.
So far I rate it as ok but I wait and if it dont work first time I have a second protector to try again.

I bought a full body Invisible shield and used that. Took of the front of the invisileshield because it was too grippy and didn't look as nice. Left the back and buttons with the invisshield and used an exim screen protector.
I have the exim screen protector too the spuc one. Good quality and very very clear. Shame they dont have the back cover protector would of been a better result than the one from ebay, it too is grippy as you say on the back.
So you advice us not to buy one?
Would like to know if it leaves any residue when you remove it?
heres a picture of the back protector, I dont think its fully dried yet but its ok some residue leaks from the edges. I have removed the first one off and washed it with abit of soap and nothing left behind.

Main thing it does is protect the back from scratches.
Here is the Screen protector eXim spuc fitted on. Very happy with it as with all my other phones using eXim spuc protectors.
As you can see its pretty much invisible only thing you can tell theres a protector is the top of the screen near the ear piece and the camera.
?????
I bought a Rubbery kind of case from a company called BOXWAVE.com...pretty cool I thought .....and I picked up a pen/laser/stylus too. Haven't got it yet ...but can't wait
Peace
Mike
I got my slip case for my diamond today. The back with the invisible shield makes it hard to pull out, way too grippy. Don't know if I want to keep the invisible shield on at all
Glad to see someone with the exim spuc protectors, they are REALLY GOOD. Had them on my last 3 phones.
Best Case I've used so far. The caseology dual layer.
It gives great protection, just adds a little bulk, case with a good grip.
There's a lot of cool color combination and best of all its just 7.99$.
the Quality is amazing, you can compare it with those 30-40$ case, I highly recommend this case!

Cool! It's close to my Spigen Neo Hybrid but it costs a third of. Now I'm looking for an economic thinner case. I've seen a lot of tpu cases but the only thing I really want is an edge that protect camera glass.:good::good:
Wife has the purple one on her S5. She loves it and the price was spot on :good: I'm a case whore so I think I'm going to try the gold mesh one for mine, currently using a Spigen.
just bought one of these myself. got the android green one with the iCarez 9H Tempered Glass screen protector. Hope it fits with the case, guess we'll find out!
thanks for the find!
- Off Topic- i just realise
Just bought this real leather flip cove caser on Amazon.de (Germany) for 6,99 euro`s. Link http://www.amazon.de/dp/B00IXEKEW4/ref=pe_386171_38075861_TE_item_image.

Tablets have been utilizing the tech for awhile now, I think it'll be okay unless you have a floppy disk reader or platter-based hard disk in there!
just got the case today. fits really well. the only thing i dont like is the sides seem a little sharp. im sure that will wear down in time. also i recommend the iCarez 9H Tempered Glass screen protector for this phone.
just ordered this. same color as OP. yay for free shipping
I have the case, its nice and good protection also very well priced. But for me this case adds way too much bulk onto the phone, I've made the brave choice to be caseless

I'm a paramedic who is looking for a case for the Verizon note 4. Im looking for a case thats thinner but provides the same protection as the otterbox defender (if thats possible?). I need a case that provides great protection as my phone gets dropped sometimes and also gets dirty during patient care.
Thank you!!
First, get out your credit card and buy a UAG case, and while you are waiting for it to arrive, browse this forum and soak up some knowledge. The hard question is whether or not to get a screen protector given your situation.

Do you want a flip cover?
I have this one on the way. I don't know if it is thinner than a defender, or how well the fit will be.

Otterbox Commuter.
Otterbox or Urban Armor Gear.
I went with the UAG.
I do not have a job like the OP but I do need good protection. I am leaning towards the UAG because of the military grade drop protection but...it has no holster...which I would use to protect that huge beautiful screen. I have ALWAYS had my former phone screen covered with a flip but frankly I've tired of them. But I'm so paranoid of going with nothing over the screen. Are glass protectors really that great (at protection as far as cracked screens)? I'm extremely squeamish about my new phone. I am a careful person but, accidents happen. I also like the Verus Thor but then I read where someone dropped their phone on the corner while wearing one and it cracked. Blah. Seidio CAPSA seems good but I'm getting tired of waiting for their release. So....cases with nothing (or just a glass screen protector) over the screen....opinions?

did you get a screen protector for it while using the commuter?
Hey guys I recently bought a UAG casing for my S5 online, and I realized that it doesn't really fit? I'm not sure but it looks like the casing isn't wide enough for the phone or something. Alot of times it feels liek the phone is "popping out" in a bad way, and I can see the gold trim around the phone too.
Do you think I bought a fake one? Cos it's very tough to remove the phone from the casing too and I can hear the creaks and feels like the phone is gonna bend or something!

It depends on where u bought it online? I have a clear one and right now prefer it over a ballistic case and a spigen slim armor cs case. Fits perfectly, and the phone is secure in it. It can be a little tough removing the case, but I prefer it that way... :good:
Mine fits perfectly in my case. It is a little hard to get out, but that it because it fits so perfectly. You shouldn't see any gaps or even any part of the bezel. I have seen a lot of fake UAG cases where they are, for lack of a better term, "warped" and don't fit snuggly, leaving gaps around the bezel. I would be a little concerned that you got a fake one. Where did you buy it? Also, the pics posted aren't coming up on my end to look at it.
Wassup guys just a little review. Got my 1st case in today. Wish i had the phone to go inside it. 2 part case.
1st impressions....very nice case. Great feel to it. Light and comfortable. May be a little slippery but not too bad. Sides do offer some grip tho with rubberish material. Great finish on it with the coral blue. Kick stand feels decent stays in place when open and snaps back closed when needed. Button press seems like it will be fine but cant tell until phine arrives. Over all protection id rate 6 out of 10.
1 of the things i noticed first was how thin the case was. This is not a bad thing. Im comming from a note 4 with a verus thor case and can fit the new case almost inside the verus thor note 4 case. This is good relating to actual phone size. My note 4 was slightly too large to properly hold it in my hand. This seems like it will be nearly perfect for me.
2 things im worried about.....when the phone is in the case and face down im hoping it leaves a gap between the surface and screen. I believe it does but again i need my phone to tell.
2 inner part of kickstand. Im worried about it somehow scratching the back glass of the phone. Anyone know where to get a rear body plastic protector?
Check out some pics. Hope this helps.
Nice. I was checking those out. I bought 5 Thors for my N4 at $3 each. Waiting for that sale again from Verus. Bring on the N7!
Buy a premium metal glass phone and put it into a plastic rubber case breaks my heart. Waiting for the drop tests if it's durable I will add skin on the back to only remove those finger prints and make the phone less slippery. Maybe some mental frame would be cool too, but then phone becomes more bullky.
I got the VRS TPU case. Looks pretty awesome so far!
