Hi Guys,
I have been reading the forum for the past few days ...
I wanted to order the below combination and wanted some suggestions:
1) If i buy an extended battery -- will it fit with slim armor case ??
if yes then should i get the 3600 / 5200 or even the zerolemon 7200 will fit ??
2) if the extended battery will not fit then i am planning this combo
> Slim armor black (wish thr were more colors !!)
> Dual sim (Magic Sim)
> Nano Glas protection
(Do i need the nano glas protection after the Slim armor ???
Thanks
Anuj
I don't have the Slim Armor, but I don't think the extended battery will fit, unless you cut into the case and only use the 3000mah battery.
That being said, you can use the glass protector and the case, or, the glass protector and the battery.
I haven't seen anything except the I closed cases, for the larger capacity batteries. Nothing after-after market yet, if ever

Yea it wont fit. I dont have the slim armor neither. I have ths neo hybrid and a glas tr. Im trying to wait and see if they will have a 4th of july sale for the nano slim. If not im might go w/mime since I think they got a lifetime warrenty and its $10 cheaper

Magic dual sim Card
I though there is nobody use magic dual sim which can support only one sim standing....Anyhow it bring much convenient for people who have two sim card,just only one card standing,if dual-standing,it will be great.....
In our country,There is carrier provide dual-standing version S4,just you can't use wireless charging function....if you don't mind,it is great improvement

Hey - so the Anker 5200 battery case is waaaay too slippery. Does anyone know of anything like the invisible shield that fits it?

What about buying some sort of textured vinyl and hot glueing it or something..?
Very easy solution, either get one of these honeycomb tpu cases for about $6 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-TPU-Cas...Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item4173bca7c4) or buy carbon fiber sticker vinyl (search on ebay, you can get a huge piece in different colors and 3D pattern for a few dollars) and cut it out to your liking.
No one has premade one? I'm not using tpu and making it even more of a brick

smart choice I'm also going to apply it in the same case and hope i could work well to me .. moreover if there is a choice in form of rubber coating spray then why not to go for .... may be it's a better solution..
Case for extended battery
Hyperion Samsung Galaxy S4 Extended Battery HoneyComb Matte TPU Case / Cover - $4.99 on amazon. Nice case and it fits excellent.
Im a big fan of Spigen and like both their Slim Armor and Neo Hybrid cases, though paramount to me is which one has the smallest footprint, and adds the last amount of bulk to the height and width of the phone. Has anyone seen these cases side by side?
the slim armor is slimmer, but also offers less protection

I bought a neo hybrid case when i got my s4. it's made up of two pieces and can be a hassle to take off completely. I ended up sending it back because the button extender for the power button was on so tight that you couldn't tell when you were actuating the button anymore. The slightest tap would wake the phone. That's a big no no if you have it in a pocket. I got the ultra thin air case in rubberized black, and never looked back. I'm not one prone to dropping 700 dollar equipment, so it suits me just fine. Wicked cheap too. I recommend pairing any case you get with a steinheil ultra crystal screen protector as well. It gets greasy sometimes, but a nice microfiber cloth has it looking brand new again in a few strokes. Have had one on mine since i bought it months ago and still don't have a scratch on it.
I love my Neo Hybrid. Never had any issues with the buttons at all...
Happy with my Neo hybrid

In some of the amazon reviews, I saw that people said that extended use of the neo hybrid case led to the volume and power buttons of the s4 becoming pushed into the phone so that once you took of the case it was very hard to push the buttons.
Has this happened to anyone else? After having used the neo hybrid for a while?
Not me.

If you're getting the neo hybrid, buy the one with the reinforced frame (only available on the Spigen website iirc). The frame around the USB port is too flimsy and can break easily if you're not careful.
My question is which has the least amount of bulk, im pretty spilt on either one in terms of style.
My Neo Hybrid broke on the bottom above the charging port from everyday use even when in a leather holster. So I got the Slim Armor View and I'm very happy with it. Everyone who sees it, wants one for their phone. But they are only for the S4 right now.

i am with you. Most case manufactures don't list the weight, which is very useful.

I suggest you to buy Slim Armor View. It's the best option at all.

I have a Neo Hybrid and its quite nice but looking at the reviews of the Slim Armor View, I wish I went with that instead lol (think I will switch soon enough , looks hot)
I got the neo hybrid for now. I might get the slim armor or UAG next

I have the neo hybrid case and I dont have to take off the case to use my headphones. I have like 10 usb cables. Most of them fits fine without taking the case off

My only issue with the Slim Armor ports is that the power port could be about half a mm bigger on each side. Its a very snug fit with some of the more bulky micro-USB connectors.
One very nice feature is that it has the terrestrial TV antenna port for the japanese S4, at least on the cases sold in Japan.
I think the fake neo hybrid cases actually have a larger charging hole.

Is the Slim Armor made of aluminium? If not, are there any signal issues regardless.

Hi guys,
I am using right now the original battery (2600) and the
Polarcell 2900 battery.
Now I was thinking about getting a stronger battery,
because those two do not really fit my need.
Can you guys name me a better/stronger battery, which
still fits into Spigen Neo Hybrid for S4 case?
On my S2 in earlier times I used the original extended
battery and it did fit into the Spigen Neo Hybrid case, too.
Thanks a lot in advance, guys.
Happy weekend greetings
3000mah zerolemon I think will be your best bet.

The thickness should not prevent fitment of the phone into any case you may have. I own the Spigen Neo Hybrid and Slim Armor cases and it fits both equally well.
Quoted from the 3rd review

Thank you guys, but 3000 is not far away from my original 2600 or Polarcell 2900.
Is not there something like 3500 or 4000, which still fits into the S4 with Spigen Neo Hybrid case?
no. with a battery that size your going to be needing a new back to hold it. its a trade off.
****. 30 € spent for nothing (Spigen case).
What case is everyone using?
Exactly what the title asks.
This is not a thread for what you think is the best case out there. This thread is for you to post what case/s you use and your experiences with it/them.
It is also to help other users find new cases that they may like.
This thread will also be used for cleaning up the clutter of people starting new threads asking about cases they should use.
Maybe include a link if you think it's good.
Right now, I am naked and so is my phone. Only have a tempered glass protector on it.
As of now, the options will be limited, but this thread will explode as more cases become available.
No case, and no screen protector for me on any of my devices. Have never had a scratch or any other damage to any of my phones.
My Spigen Neo Hybrid Came in today - and I am very impressed with the quality of this case. I had the Spigen Neo Hybrid on my S5 and S4 and while I liked the case for those phones, the aluminum shell was kind of flimsy and while it looked good - it was not as durable as I might have liked - in fact the metal around the hole for the battery broke on one of the cases I was using.
After getting the new Neo Hybrid case, it looks and feels more like a premium case - the metal surrounding the case is very solid and has a very premium feel to it. All in all it adds a very nice level of protection without adding bulk - and it keeps that very high end feel that comes with the NOTE 4 outside of the case.
FYI - I have also installed a BODY GLOVE Screen Protector - it took a little getting used to at first - it does not cover the glass from side to side because of the curved edges - but it does cover the viewing area quite well and looks good too.

I got talked into a case at the T-Mobile store. They only had one to choose from, the Samsung S-View Flip Cover. I'm really liking it. The shell is thin and slightly hard, and I can access customized settings through the window without having to open the case.
It was $50, and at first I was going to go back and return it but after having it for a day I'm going to keep it.

You can get 50% off on that case directly from Samsung as a gift for registering your N4 with them. They give you 50% off on all of their accessories priced at $49.99 or less, you can order up to five accessories.

I an still probably going to buy a case just to have some protection before Otterbox gets released. And If sprint store doesn't honor Samsung coupon, then when the online order shows up, I'm returning original back to sprint...
I'm waiting for Seidio to release their Dilex cases. Had one for the note 3 and I love the metal kickstand. I'm hesitant on buying the Spigen Slim/Tough armor because I'm hearing bad things about the plastic kickstand.
Received my Neo Hybrid in Satin Silver, it is really nice, just need phone to put in it
I went with the White Spigen Slim Armor case for now, and may order the Slate or Champagne Gold (or both) later.

Using a Spigen Neo Hybrid Metal Slate case on my Note 4 right now. Otterbox Commuter case is ordered and on its way. Using Ringke screen protector(from Ringke fusion).
To hold me until I find something more protective that gets substantial positive feed-back, I'm now using the Spigen Ultra Hybrid Crystal Clear that I bought during the (now dead?) Spigen early-morning sales for $3.49 + $3.00 shipping. So far so good.
I'm using Spigen Ultra Hybrid case too. But is mint on the grip with clear back.

Before 2010, i used screen protectors and cases, because old smartphones (and PDAs) would scratch easily, not the case anymore, and since 2010 my phones is naked 100%
I keep jumping back and forth between naked and the Grey S-View.
Mostly the Spigen capsule in metal slate, the first of many Spigen cases i liked. And now the Obliq rugged slim case in Grey.

I ordered that one too, waiting for it to arrive in a few days. What I am looking forward to see is a case (like on my Note2) that replaces the back cover and only has a flap that covers the screen. This type of "case" is the thinnest and for me the most interesting. they are not available yet for the Note 4 though. here is a video of what I mean
I'll get my body glove satin case in black color in early of November, but won't be able to photo it with the phone, I'm waiting for samsung in my country release it's bronze gold color. lol
That will take long time
i ordered this one here loved the way it looked and it has a cover for your s-pen and lots of colors http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MP3OZME/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I wanted to order from Spigen for the option of getting the free kickstand. I am now also worried about why it might have disappeared. Any have any ideas?
Also anyone know if this case or other cases like it could effect the Android Pay or samsung Pay?
It's there when I looked 1 min ago on both sites.
