Broke my first 1 caseless within days, i got a clear TPU case that is VERY slim and does not take away from the phone much at all, I also added the Spigen glass.t screen protector

I'm caseless and I work in construction. I put it in a Ziploc bag to keep the debris out and I'm good to go.

The phone is too slippery for me without a case. I got a Ringke Slim, a bit easier to hold and extremely thin. Only 7 bucks shipped, can't go wrong!

Caseless and Happy
I've had my GS4 caseless since I got it just over two weeks ago, it's still in great condition. I generally don't like using a case on my phones, (I never used a case on my GS2 before this one) as I don't like the look and bulk that it adds, no screen protector either, I'm still amazed by how well Gorilla glass resists scratching, the screen on my GS2 still looks brand new, despite never having a screen protector on it.
Case less all the way, with a screen protector..prob don't neet it but I'm anal like that. Oh and changed the back to a metal one. Gives the phone a "heavier" feel.
Naked with a ArmorSuit Miltary shield screen protector and Seidio spring-clip hoster.
I am thinking of getting the metal back too. they look cool and seem to add weight to the back so the phone might be more likely to fall on the back in the event of a drop.
Im caseless and screen protector less, my phone flung off my lap when i got outta the car the othet day, cartwheeled on asphalt and only left a nick in the bottom right of bezel. No cracks thank god..
I think i may have a few light scratches, may get one of those fancy glass screen protectors everyone's been raving about

Not I. I had my Galaxy S II caseless without a screen protector and it held pretty well... That thing was pretty solid.
I was watching all the drop tests, and seeing how easy Gorilla Glass III actually cracks; even seeing on here where it cracked in peoples pants??? Seeing that this is a bigger device, somewhat harder to hold in my hands, and definitely a lot more slippery than the SII, I do not want to take a chance on the $649.99 device. I also like leaving the device laying flat down on a surface(still getting used to air gestures, but the notification air gesture is cool); but one of the first things to touch the surface while laying flat is the camera lens which bothered me. I also have AT&T insurance but after seeing this case, it made my choice...
Spigen Neo Hybrid Case (Satin Silver)
edit* funny I had a dream last night that I actually cracked my S4. In the dream, it felt so real and that feeling of the cracked screen just really brings you down (sorry guys for the ones who did), but when I woke up, I was so relieved...

You guys crack me up. Spend hundreds for the phone and don't want to spend more than 7.00 on a case. Just Kidding
I prefer a leather pouch. Will get the Spigen one for 29.99. Has always done well for me and allows me to "use" phone with no case.
I am getting 2 32gb S4's tonight. My son still wants a case to use and keeps phone in pocket while at work. Does bending, stocking. Doesn't want case while using the phone, like me. But, doesn't want pouch. Is there a hard case that easily comes off then back on. Looked at many web sites and videos. Seems once they are on, they are not designed to be popping on and off--
OP: Based on my research, I would get some kinda case for the phone. I don't think this one will fair as well as my One S and Blackberries when dropped--
I roll caseless with my S4 and HTC One, both with Ghost Armor front and back.

If I get a case its going to be that exact one. It really is a nice looking case imo. does it add much bulk? doesnt look like it in the pics.
I sometimes dream about my phone too. makes me feel a bit obsessed lol.
I went caseless until I noticed the metal camera ring got all scratched up. Luckily I found a dead pixel on the display and was able to exchange it because of that.
With the premier discount on my account, I picked up the decent Case Mate clear case from the AT&T for 35% off. It works and the camera ring is still shiny with love.

Right now I'm rocking the silicone scratch protector back (can't really call it a "case") and the el-cheapo-cut-your-own screen protector that Costco included with the phone purchase. I've never owned a phone that could be made waterproof, so I was thinking it would be neat to pick up the Obex. That means sticking to my slightly lame solution for another couple of weeks.
Does anyone have experience with the Obex cases? Or thoughts on if it's worth waiting for and getting as a daily driver case?
Cheers!
I bought one for my GS3 when it came out and gave it the water test. Sure enough it held. I used it as a daily driver for one day and sold it. The bulk added is enormous as expected but I was mostly let down by the screen protector it has (the kind with the dots all over it) and the sound distortion the waterproof membrane produced. My say in the matter is, if you plan on being in a situation where you will NEED water protection, go for it and use it when needed. Not a good option as a daily driver in my opinion.

You basically just confirmed my specific 2 concerns about making the obex a daily driver! The screen protector, and the sound. Thanks, I think I will get a tempered glass protector and some other case.
Don't be too quick to look past the Samsung protection+ case. I have been through a LOT of different cases with the gs3 and note 2 in my quest for perfection and (go figure) Samsung is dang close. UAG also has a good thing going. The functionality of the buttons (power and volume) on both of these are at the top of my list for cases that cover the buttons.

I ordered the UAG and Spigen glas.t nano slim, I think it should work out pretty well...I'll probably still eventually pick up an obex for canoe trips and stuff, but I think I'll be happy with this as a daily driver setup. This is also my first tempered glass screen protector, so that will be interesting!
I had the spigen glas tr. Its nice but the $35 price tag for 1 . I got the neo hybrid by spigen and just ordered a glass screen protector from mime they have a lifetime warranty and its $25

The GS3 was Seidio's first Gen so things might have gotten better by now. I used the iPhone 5 Obex and it was ten times better than the iPhone 4S LifeProof case. I'm sure that the S4 model of the Obex will be tweaked. I'm planning to get one. I'm post a review when I get it

I got into live chat support with them and they said very early Q3, like basically in a couple weeks. If that service rep was well informed, I would expect it to be released before 7/15.
On a side note, my UAG case arrived today and it's awesome. Feels and looks great. Button access is almost easier that it was when the phone was naked. The case adds very little bulk, though it does add weight. If anyone wants pics or measurements, let me know. I have the white case on the white phone.
I got my Glas t.nano slim protector installed today. I almost got it perfect! Alas, a couple small defects. I noticed that you can actually clean the adhesive side with alcohol and lens paper. I used methanol so there wouldn't be any residue, though most people probably don't work in a lab and have access to that. Ethanol removed dust, but left a residue, so I would avoid that probably. Pics are at rblunderbuss.imgur.com if you're curious, couldn't get them to show up here correctly.
So I was in the store shopping for cases this evening and ran across the OB section. I haven't used an OB in years but thought I'd take a look. I ended up liking both the commuter and defender and was having a hard time deciding between the two.
Anyone else have this same issue, and if so what did you decide? I picked up the Commuter for no other reason than it seems to be well built and a bit less in the way. I also didn't really need the Defender's screen protector.
I would appreciate hearing opinions from anyone on these two cases.
Thanks in advance.

Get the defender. It's slim compared to past models and provides the best protection. I have an extra all black one if you want. Pm me.

My wife has the defender and I have the commuter.
I don't like either but prefer the commuter over the defender. The defender really reminds me of a case you'd get if you have a filthy kid or are accident prone (like my wife)
Defender is huge. Commuter is less huge but still large compared to my spigen slim armor and neo hybrid. As for protection they all do well against drops and like I said the defender is good against filth and children.

Having tried both i prefer the commuter by far. one thing to note, the defenders "screen protector" is terrible and more of nuisance in my opinion. Size wise they are about the same outside dimensions with the defender being .1" wider and .1" taller. the feel in hand of the commuter and the defender were both really nice, i prefer the curved commuter case though. Really it all comes down to whether or not you need a belt clip because the both the cases should provide more than enough protection for 99% of people. I also got myself one of the Spigen Glas.t nanos and it is an amazing combo with the commuter case.
I personally like them both so I have both a black defender and white frost\grey commuter case

For me the screen protector is the killer, i would prefer to use my own tempered glass one. I had a defender on my s2 and plastic screen protector just didn't last (rendering it a through away) and collected dust under it. I did prefer the rubber outer case though compared to the commuters hardcase but it was a lint magnet. Overall I think the commuter does as good of a job as the defender with protection but with a little less bulk!
Yeah the only way id ever use a defender on this phone is if i was going to remove the **** plastic screen protector and just use my glas.t one. good case but the overall protection improvement over the commuter is pretty slim.
I use my Defender all week for work because I work in construction, weekends I use my commuter...yup yup!
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 2
I have a defender and agree with the others above; the screen protector is atrocious. I tried several methods to eliminate the "oil slick" effect but none lasted permanently. The feel isn't all that bad, IMO. Once I mar it up, I'll tear out the stock protector and install my own.

Same here. I had never even considered the defended cause of its size. Also because it was a pain to take off and put on each day. For years and years I've used a sandwich baggie.
So i got the grey and lime green defender and I must, it has certainly grown on me. I'm a painted by trade, so I deal with a ton of dust and debris, along with heights and paint of course. Now you can't argue with the fact that, even though you have any case covering your device, there is always that chance it csn suffer from a drop or whatever.
Just a week ago, I was working on a dormer on the top of a roof 2 storied high. So i listen to my podcasts all day long in work. So yep, took my phone out of my pocket to change PC, when it sort of got caught on the inner linking of my pocket, i reacted quickly but not quick enough. It fell and disconnected from my headset, and took the plummet 2 stories down right onto the pavement. My frikken heart sank. The first thing that came to my mind was that damn copay thru the insurance. To shorten this endless story, not o lt was there no damage to my device, but the case survived haha. Few scuff on the outer layer, but nothing too bad. I was simply amazed. Within the past few days, I ordered another, just to have. So im am very happy with the defender as you csn see
Sorry for such a long story lol

Check out trident cases. I have been using them since my motorola days. Have used OB cases as well but imo tridents offer the same amount of protection but at a cheaper price. Paid 22 bucks for mine from amazon and trident has good customer service. Not to mention if you have to warranty it they dont ask you to take 4 pictures of it.

So many complaints about the screen protector on the defender... Now this holds true to just about every phone I put a defender on, I would pop out the screen protector. If I turn on the setting for high sensitivity for glove use. U don't even know the protector is there.
So... I had the commuter for all of 30 min. It felt cheap and lose on my phone. The plastic just didn't seem to mold with the rubber very well. I traded it for the defender and I haven't even looked at another case since. Yea.. Its not the best looking case and it does add substantial bulk, but I never take it off and o have no complaints with it.

It doesn't seem like it would loosen up under normal use. Only time will tell though. It would depend a lot on how many times the rubber outer is removed and reinstalled I imagine.

No apology necessary, it's great to hear the story. Thanks for all the opinions thus far. I haven't 100% decided yet, but y'all have given me a lot to think about, especially when spending $$ on a case.
Anyone else sick of Otterbox? I use to buy one at a min with a new phone but feels like the quality to design has gone down; no attention to detail, ignore the form factor of the thin phone, design oversights which lead to weaknesses in the case (Droid Razr Maxx Commuter has a thin piece that will break overtime, its just a matter of time). Just little stuff like this has me looking at other cases
So I have been a big fan since my gs3 was purchased last year. Their screen protectors and cases were awesome. Now I'm on the gs4 and a little more than a year later I consistently refer to them for everything my phone needs. Perfect screen protection without a wet solution, dropped my phone the other day and case held up the phone just fine. I don't normally plug companies, but their product and shipping speeds have been awesome. Anyone got good or bad stories about them? Share!

I got the Neo Spigen Hybrid and it only lasted about 3 months. At the bottom where the microusb is connected the silver plastic cover broke off. I think it is partly my fault since I had to remove the case everytime I had to charge the phone since the stock cable crapped out and the new monoprice replacement cable didn't fit with the case installed.
Sh!ttiest customer service in the world.
Agreed.
I had a bad one...
I bought the Slim Armor View....
I didn't use the hinged cover until i HAD to cause my phone had no glass, just the exposed digitizer and screen ... I kept using it even after replacing the display and the hinge of the S-view part of the cover broke... I've kept using it and had a small plastic piece break off, from around the same hinge area...
I kinda regret the $45 I paid for it... But it IS a niiiiice looking case... It's got that going for it...

I'll completely agree with the screen protector. I love the clear screen protectors. They protect the phone, no color loss and fit really really well. But I can't say the same about the Neo Hybrid. I bought the case from amazon and less than 90 days later it broke. I contacted Spigen and they told me since I didn't order from their website, there isn't any warranty. In fact if you read on their site, they only have a 90 day warranty for any of their products and MUST be bought from their site. I really don't care about warranties on screen protectors because, well they're cheap and don't see much wear, but a case needs to withstand, well me and the Hybrid didn't. This isn't to say I'm rough on my phones, but I do take my phone out of the case from time to time and the edge bumper just didn't hold up. Not to mention the back of the case warped. Yes I'm sure it was an original Spigen case, checked the code it came with online and everything. I'm still using a Spigen screen protector, but I ended up getting a Trident Aegis. I know it isn't comparing apples to apples at this point, but the Aegis has a 1 year warranty and though adds bulk to the phone, I'm a big man and the phone feels better in my hand now. My most favorite feature about the case, DUST SHIELDS on the ports and the speaker. Stupid to get excited over i know but I hate dust in my phone lol.
yea they're great cases and all but it irritates me that the ports are all off
I stopped using my case because it was annoying to keep on taking the case off every time to plug in the AUX
Is there any problem with the Neo Hybrid having a sagging issue with it's soft rubber on the back? I know with my Galaxy Nexus, a few months in, the rubber began to sag due to the heat from the phone.
Have they fixed this issue in the SGS4 version?
Thanks!

Yeah that's what I mean when I say "sag" actually. I guess "warped" out have been a better word for it, but there was a huge gap between the back of the phone and the rubber part after a few months. It use to be flush against it, but again, I assume the heat from the phone just messed it up.
Ugh, terrible to know that they still haven't fixed it.
I bought the red Spigen Slim Armor, it's amazing, looks flashy its really protective without sacrificing the slimness of the gs4, the only gripe I have about it is that the paint on the red plastic cover is kinda chipping off, maybe from me dropping it so much =/

The back is where mine sagged as well, right near the camera opening. Honestly, save your money and go with a different case. my i717 had a cheap $3 case which protected the edges and never ever sagged on the back.
Yeh unfortunately my neohybrid is exhibiting this sagging behavioural too just around the camera where i presume the cpu is
My Spigen Neo-Hybrid case for my GS4 broke a few weeks ago. The hard plastic frame just snapped in half at the thin sections where the USB plug goes. The phone was never dropped, and the case was in perfect shape, other than the break, of course.
I emailed Spigen, twice, and sent them pictures of the broken case, twice. They never even wrote me back. The case was originally bought directly from them (was def. not a knockoff), and they can't even write me back!!
I ended up replacing the case with a Neo-Hybrid knockoff from eBay, and it appears much more sturdy... and it was less than $20 delivered!!! I clearly shouldn't have switched to Spigen cases, with their fragile materials and pathetic customer support. Never again will I buy their overpriced garbage. Think twice before buying one unless you want to he shelling out more cash to replace it when it breaks.
I currently am using the slim armor case. Gives great protection while keeping the phone slim. Really like you can swap out the plastic to other colors if you buy them. Also held up to my first drop the other day with 100% success (thank god).

I just left my 1 star review. Total bs with this case. Nice scratched up new phone I have. Waiting for spigen to replace my phone (yeah right lol)
Yea wish I knew before I bought this case
I thought this case was the bees knees until you guys made me remove it to find a few light scratches on the top of my phone. I guess it's the sharp inside lip on the case that's the cause....boooo.

Yea it looks almost black in the picture, but it's Navy Blue.
I have the slate and I really like how they shared the original look of the phone with the chamfered edges and making them glossy. As far as scratches go, I already had some before I started using the case just from being in my pocket. Besides that, I can't see those scratches when its in the case. And for anyone to think that this shiny polished edge will never get a scratch on it is absurd. A case is probably the worst thing for it if you ever get some dirt or dust in there.

I don't have a note 4 anymore but still have the blue case

Same here. Love the look and feel of the case but I have a ton of little scratches on the top on my metal frame. Ridiculous.

I have the slate and I really like how they shared the original look of the phone with the chamfered edges and making them glossy. As far as scratches go, I already had some before I started using the case just from being in my pocket. Besides that, I can't see those scratches when its in the case. And for anyone to think that this shiny polished edge will never get a scratch on it is absurd. A case is probably the worst thing for it if you ever get some dirt or dust in there.

Right. People are going crazy on spigen and complaining but it's samsung the one that made the soft metal bezel. I have the Capsule case and I love it and yeah I have a few tiny scratches but if you think another case won't do the same thing you are sadly mistaken. I hit my bezel with some polish wax and now you can barely see the scratches. Slapped my case back on and I'm good to go. Not worried about resale value anyway of the device since they have none as it is. I love the case.
