Alright, so I have the Spigen Neo Hybrid case and absolutely love it but now I also want to purchase an aluminum bumper case as a spare. Looking for recommendations from those whom have one. Thanks!
Just a few threads below this one they're talking about aluminium bumpers/cases.
There is a lot of video reviews of cases on YouTube. What I like to do though, is face off one case vs another and decide on a winner. What I've managed to do this time though is accumulate a good number of cases that I've spent time and real world use on. My plan is to face them off against each other in videos. Not all at once though. Instead I'm going to do a bracket in a tournament style until I proclaim the very best case. I'd like your input on which to put against each other (I'm also posting this at Android Central). They are the following cases:
Spigen Neo Hybrid
Spigen Slim Armor
Samsung Flip Case
Samsung Protective Cover
UAG Maverick
UAG Folio Flip
Seidio (Platinum) w/holster
Unicorn Beetle w/holster
Verus Iron Shield
Once I get some feedback I'll post the bracket and start posting videos over the course of the next couple of weeks. I'll be giving away a few of the cases when it's all said and done to people who like the videos or post comments on them.
Here's a pic of the cases that will be in the tournament.
Here are my suggestions.
Neo Hybrid Metal vs Verus Iron Shield
UAG Maverick vs Samsung Protective Cover
UAG Folio vs Samsung Flip Case
Waiting for your cases face off tournament. Good luck!
Glad to see the Samsung protective cover in the shootout. I really like mine.
I have the neo hybrid and protective cover. I think the protective cover is a way better case. Slim and offers some protection

would like to see them compared against the iblason armorbox if you have one with and without samsung oem qi covers fitted.
Great thread, for me, the most versatile case is the Otterbox Commuter Series Case. Overtime, the silicone on the Defender Series case expands.
OK, here are the match ups for the first round:
Spigen Neo Hybrid (Plastic) vs.
Samsung Protective Case
Spigen Neo Hybrid (Metal) vs.
Verus Iron Shield
Spigen Slim Armor vs.
UAG Maverick
Unicorn Beetle w/ holster vs.
Platinum Hard Case w/ holster (BB version of Seidio Surface)
Samsung Flip Case vs.
UAG Folio Scout
Picked up the Speck Mightyshell for the V10 last night and it just might be the best case so far the V10. It feels nice and rugged without adding much bulk to the phone. The fit and finish are top notch. There are two things that I don't like, the case leaves the front metal edges of the sides exposed (maybe they were trying to compensate for the fingerprint scanner) and every time you remove the phone from the case it rips the back cover off the phone.
Let me know what you think about this case.
Otherwise a great feeling and fitting case. Worth $55.00 Nope, but here are some pictures:
$55 is way too much money. I love my $18 Spigen Slim Armor.
+1 on the Spigen Slim Armor
Sorry, that case is just plain ugly, bulky and over priced. ???

I'll stick to my otter box with a holster/stand

It doesn't cover the metal bars. Seems a major dirt trap to me and that price tag OUCH.
THE OBLIQ is pretty nice imo
I have 5 different cases & I absolutely love the OBLIQ.
Fit is PERFECT & the price is right.

I have Spigen clear liquid crystal & the clear hybrid & the Ringke gray tint. The Ringke is my 2nd favorite.

Yeah $55 is a lot of money, but this phone is worth it. If there is a holster that it fits in I'd buy it now.

I like the look, but the back "looks" slippery - is it?

Honestly I like the Obliq case the best, the texture is the closest to the original back, and there is extra texture on the sides for added grip.
They are all nice cases and well worth the purchase.

How do you like the Tudia case. I'm currently using the ringke but the back clear area is too slick for my liking.
Thanks in advanced

The Tudia one is my second favorite one actually.
The back is smooth but not slippery, gives the phone a clean look if you like that instead of the textured back.
Who has this case and is willing to sell it? PM me.
Inicpio charging over $30 and Speck charging over $50 for cases in stores when so many case makers online sell them for $10-20 has always confused me...
Anyone reading this thread and trying to decide, buy the OBLIQ.. its $9.99 :laugh:

Agreed... Really like the OBLIQ look and feel.
I don't care for the look of the case in the OP of this thread.
I was never a fan of anything from Speck. Just never liked their cases.
Anyone have both or input on which one protects better and slimmer?

I have both. I'd say the rugged armor for better protection because it's not as slippery as the neo hybrid. Not that the hybrid is slick feeling. I have the hybrid just for the look and color match.
I have the slim armor CS and arctic blue silver neo hybrid. If the slim armor CS is the same as the tough armor it scratches very easily. I know it's only a case but it's only been on the phone 3 times compared to the neo hybrid which I've had on the rest of the time and not 1 scratch and it's been put thru more.
Saying that the way the phone gets used I would prefer a blue tough armor with the kick stand.
Which Spigen casing is the thinnest for note 9?
hi guys what is the difference between this two cases which is better? https://www.spigen.com/collections/...ase-slim-armor-crystal?variant=12073431990319 https://www.spigen.com/products/galaxy-s10-case-ultra-hybrid-s?variant=12074246963247
Funny that you asked because I have the slim armor crystal and my family uses the ultra hybrid s. The slim armor crystal has better grip than the other one (slippery edges) and is more durable (buttons aren't cut out). It also has a stand so you can watch videos horizontally (it's very flimsy tho, it can break off easily if you're not careful).
Otherwise, I recommend the slim armor crystal over the hybrid s.
Extra notes:
*If your phone has a dbrand skin it will be a tight fit in the case and I generally don't recommend it. (I took my dbrand skin off)
*I also recommend against getting a BazaarDoDo case because it's very slippery, graphics are not very sharp, and has zero lip protection for the screen.
