a question about few cases - Galaxy Note 4 Accessories

Hey Guys,
After a long time with iPhone 5 i decide to Move to android and to buy Note 4, so i I ordered the note few days ago and now i have to choose which case i will buy. now i have 4 options of cases and i will glad if you will help me to choose.
its very important for me the case will be good for drops and shock and will fit nice on the note 4 and to have access to all buttons and to the fingerprint scanner and with the screen glass protector fit well. one more important thing is that the cover does not scratch the phone.
in short the the case have to be a great one
well here is my options,
i tried to put links and its gave me an error beacuse im a new user.
1. Spigen Slim Armor ( 1 Layer ) - spigen.com/galaxy-note-4-case-slim-armor.html
2. Incipio Dualpro ( 1 Layer ) - incipio.com/cases/samsung-smartphone-cases/samsung-galaxy-note-4-cases/samsung-galaxy-note-4-dualpro-case.html
3. Case-Mate Naked Tough ( 1 Layer ) - case-mate.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-4-Cases/Case-Mate-Samsung-Galaxy-Note-4-Naked-Tough-Cases.asp
4. Otterbox Symmetry ( 2 Layers ) - otterbox.com/Symmetry-Series-Case-for-Samsung-Galaxy-Note-4/sam28-galaxy-note-4,default,pd.html
which case do you recommend?
thank you very much for your help!

i would get the iblason armorbox + samsung wireless charging cover. they work great and no need for wired charging. the iblason also makes the phone water resistant for light rain.

we dont have in our country Tech21 cases and many more cases :/ well i have to choose one, or incpicio dualpro or spigen slim armor. i got my note today

If you want your phone in a case that's slim, easy to hold and offer decent protection choose the Verus Thor. If you want more protection and a badass looking case choose the UAG case. If I were to chose on your list, I'd pick the Otterbox Symmetry looks okay and for sure it offers good protection too and I will also stay away from Spigen cases, there's a lot of reports that their cases causes scratches on the chamfered edges of our Note 4.

can you give me links from amazon to the verus thor and Uag cases? i will order them soon. i dont have those cases in my country. the otterbox symmetery is not an option no more
but its will take a time until i get them,
good to know about the spigen cases so i think i will go with the incipio dual pro case what do you say?

thank you!

Guys finally i bought a case, i chose Otterbox Symmetry. what you say about this case?

It's a great looking case with above average protection no doubt. The only thing that turned me off from the symmetry case when I had tried it on in store was the fact that the volume/power buttons were difficult to press. If it weren't for that I would have bought the symmetry then and there. Are the buttons hard to press on yours?

Personally for protection and looks I like the Spigen Slim Armor the best. It's not very bulky, but still offers good protection. For good reviews and pictures take a look at the posts around this section. There are plenty of great reviews.
Ballistic aspira. Not too thick, but great protection. Love the colors too

I'm really liking my UAG Navigator in white:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41548103
Spigen Neo Hybrid, Dante Red looks pretty sweet. Gets a little distorted from a wirelesss charging pad, but otherwise very nice looking.
I personally use 3 cases, the official Samsung Protective Cover+, Spigen Neo Hybrid and UAG Navigator! All 3 are slim protective cases!
Otterbox commuter has protected my S4 from several drops ranging from 3-5 feet onto various surfaces including concrete! Couldn't recommend anything else.
Really love my Spigen Slim Armor Cases. They are the best looking case I have ever used. I will probably get an Otterbox Commuter or Defender for Outdoor activities. I have used them on other phones and really liked them.
it depends if you want protective case and don't care if the phone become bulky or want non bulky phone and good protection.for the first option i recommend otterbox commuter. for the second option i recommend uag .
I personally prefer the otterbox as well.

If you like not being able to plug in headphones/chargers with the case on, go for the Spigen Neo Hybrid.
If you want the same protection, an OEM look, and wider ports that allow for plugging in with the case on, go for the OEM Samsung S4 Bumper Case.
You can find both (by copying & pasting the names I wrote) on Amazon.
I would wholeheartedly recommend the UAG case. It's the first case I look for when I buy a new phone.
To me, it's the perfect case.

I'm using the otterbox the commuter series, and liking it. Not too bulky.
So my Seidio Convert case for the S3 fits the S4 mostly.
You will have to cut the volume controls a bit if you want to use the inner plastic shell but I just skipped on it.
The rubber shell and exoskeleton together are enough to keep the phone in the case - even if a bit of wiggle is there - and you can use the volume and power buttons, the IR blaster is exposed and works well.
The headphones jack doesn't line up, but the power and camera do - so it'll do for a few days until I get this in:
http://www.amazon.com/Seidio-CSWSSG...TF8&qid=1379369652&sr=8-11&keywords=seidio+s4
I used to go for otterbox cases, but after getting my first Seidio case I will never, ever use an otterbox again.
The seidio convert case is far and away superior to the defender case from otterbox - the convert case has an inner plastic shell that slides together, instead of clipping together, and then the rubber shell goes over with a second plastic exoskeleton that keeps the rubber in place.
Not only that, but where the defender is basically a brick-type shape, the convert case is contoured and feels nice in your hand with it's rounded edges and ribbed sides.
They are about the same size when all is said and done, so i'd rather hold a convert then a defender.
That waterproof case is going to be the best decision I ever made for this device, I am sure of it.

I hate to admit it but the new Otterbox Defender is actually pretty nice. It seems slimmer than previous models and feels good in my hands.
I also like the color options now available. I found replacement frames and rubber sleeves on Amazon for like $5 each so I can mix up the colors. I have the Samsung wireless charging back on it which fits in the case and charges fine. The raised edges don't bother me like they did in previous models where they felt like they impeded my typing. I have to say I'm impressed with overall improvements to the case. I tried the Convert but prefer this. On top of all that, this like Seidio are quality built cases so you know proximity and gps etc...all work fine.
I have probably about 15 cases from thin to bumpers to bulky but this actually works pretty well for me. I've gotta calm down on the case venture!!! The Love Mei large case is on a shelf after the issues I experienced with it.
I need to have a phone case garage sale.
Best

Good protective case with a lip

Want a good protective case with a lip that covers the phone if I drop it face down, and also one that protects the camera as well, and doesn't add to much bulk. Recently bought this Spigen Case but it seems like it won't do crap if I dropped my phone!

That looks like a strong case. I use a spigen slim fit case with the same air cushioning technology and it protects my phone well.

If you like the Spigen brand, take a look at their Tough Armor case. I can't say enough good things about this case.
I'm slightly disappointed in the Spigen case I purchased. I picked up one of the Galaxy S5 Case Ultra Hybrid cases. My main requirement for a case was that it would cover the silver bezel on the S5 and the Spigen case appeared to according to the pictures. Sadly this is not the case. The silver bezel is small, but it's definitely still there which is really deceiving given the photos on there website.

You have the S5? And also, have you dropped it yet w/the case on?
I picked up the Speck Candyshell case in the store while I wait to see what else comes out. They have always been great protection.

same thing on my case I got the neo hybrid and the silver showing drives me crazy if they had made the lip on the front slightly wider , this would be a keeper , im just waiting and hoping ottterbox comes out with a case in this same blue color and I will order there commuter case
I have a Slim Armor for when I go out to run, walk or hike. I use a Ultra Fit for work and just normal use. I used a Slim Armor on my S4 and dropped it from a bar height table flat on the face and didn't leave a mark on it. Dropped it on the corners a few times as well and it still looks like new out of the case. I have been really impressed with the quality of build and protection of the Spigen over the last year. Not sure I would use anything else with the exception of OtterBox.
I just posted a review of the Poetic Atmosphere, which could fit your needs. I mention the lip protection, which you can see in the picture.

What case do you use?

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

Rugged Case for Galaxy Note 4

I have the Galaxy Note 4, I love outdoor activities and I bring the Galaxy Note 4 with me always, I have the Rugged Case for Galaxy Note 4, i-Blason Armorbox Dual Layer Hybrid Full-body Protective Case to protect my phone from bumps and other accidental drop when I do some activities, and it serves me well, I wonder if what are other alternatives for it, I would love to have one but reluctant to buy other brands, any recommendation based on your personal experience?
Here is the one that I bought
, i-Blason Armorbox Dual Layer Hybrid Full-body Protective Case
Can anyone suggest me another one?
Otterbox Defender...THE last case your Note4 will ever be in.

I don't know how you guys can put such an ugly bulky case on something so beautiful. Trust me, I'm all about protection, I've never cracked a phone before (*knock on wood*) but I feel like putting something like this iBlason case or the traditional OtterBox just covers up the true beauty of the phone. I usually go with a Spigen case (good protection, yet not as bulky). This time around I'm going for the Ringke Slim case with a wrist strap.

I understand where you're coming from and I too find the Ringke slim case exceptional in terms of looks and minor protection. But after using it for a whole month, I finally caved in and ordered an Otterbox Defender. I just don't want to be afraid of damaging my phone. Being able to use it with an extra peace of mind is worth sacrificing the appearance in my opinion. After all, you can always take it out of the case and it'll still be the beautiful, slim phone you purchased. But each to their own, I can only speak for myself.

Is Tech Armor for rugged case a good buy?
I have the UAG and the Otterbox Defender for mine. I used a UAG on my Note 2 for 2 years and was completely satisfied and feel that it is a solid case. However, I like the amount of protection the Otterbox Defender gives and I also like the way it adds some bulk to the phone. It seems easier to hold.
That being said, it does not fit well in my pocket and I've actually started using a belt clip (included with the case) for the first time. The belt clip also doubles as a stand for your phone when you are charging it.

[Q] are Spigen cases and SPs good?+ user experiance please read!

Hi, I have a very limited choice and they are:
Spigen Case Capsule
Spigen Case Tough Armor
Spigen Ultra Hybrid Case
Spigen Slim Armor Case (*)
Spigen Neo Hybrid Case
Spigen Thin Fit Case
SP:
Spigen Ultra Crystal Screen Guard
Spigen Crystal Hard Surface Screen Guard
Here are my questions:
I'm not buying these for protection at all, the reason i want to buy a case is i prefer to have a case when im outside (for some weird reasons i feel more comfortable with one outside )
and the reason i need screen protector is because my hands have so much friction to the screen! and btw the spigen kickstand sounds useful to me!
do you have any of these? do you like it?! (im basically asking for user experience)
Q1) Are any of those cases easy to take off? i plan to take it off once i arrive home! i don't want to scratch the metal of my note 4 and spend some time smashing it to take it off (and which of those are easy to take off?)
Q2) do the screen protectors help the friction? and do they bother the s-pen? i tried it on a note 2 with a random screen protector and it feels awful to work with, but those might be different!
I would go with the Neo Hybrid out your list. To me, it is the best looking case in you list. I've tried most of them. I don't think any of them are hard to take off.
The spigen crystal screen guards are good. I wouldnt say they would reduce friction, but they wont add to it. Spen is unchanged in funtionality.
The glass protector will produce a halo.

actually from my usage i found even gorilla glass 2 to be scratch-proof for me so the only reason i want screen-protector is friction, i can't play nova (my hands stick to screen) lol
but thanks for answer! don't they scratch the metal part of the Screen?!

None of the cases scratch the metal. particles between the case and metal scratch the metal.
I have the Spigen Tough Armor.
Nice case, feels good in the pocket. Good protection, rubber corners and such. The buttons are a little hard to identify by feel alone, that's one complaint.
Second complaint is the kickstand - Not so great. It clicks into place and it's HARD to get it out with just your fingernail. Then once you get it out, it flops around so you have to kind of hold it in place while you prop up the phone... and any bump will flip it back closed and cause your phone to fall.

thanks for you answer sounds like i better choose the neo(althought the Tough Armor's rear guard sounds god! and i might give the screen protector a try! i guess they don't change screen quality either!
How does the Tough Armor compare against the Slim Armor?
I'm gonna be getting a Galaxy Note 4 soon and I'm looking into getting a either a Spigen Tough Armor or Slim Armor case.
Spigen Neo Hybrid
I have a Spigen Neo Hybrid for my Note 4 and honestly, I am kind of disappointed. I had it for my Samsung S4 and Note 3 and absolutely love the case for those phones. Never had a problem.
Even though the it fits perfectly for the Note 4, the trim is beginning to have the paint fade and chip away (never had this problem with the S4 or Note 3).
Also, regarding the Spigen Neo Hybrid, it is cut so specifically that some aftermarket micro USB or headphone jacks might not fit.

Hi, I have a very limited choice and they are:
Spigen Case Capsule
Spigen Case Tough Armor
Spigen Ultra Hybrid Case
Spigen Slim Armor Case (*)
Spigen Neo Hybrid Case
Spigen Thin Fit Case
SP:
Spigen Ultra Crystal Screen Guard
Spigen Crystal Hard Surface Screen Guard
Here are my questions:
I'm not buying these for protection at all, the reason i want to buy a case is i prefer to have a case when im outside (for some weird reasons i feel more comfortable with one outside )
and the reason i need screen protector is because my hands have so much friction to the screen! and btw the spigen kickstand sounds useful to me!
do you have any of these? do you like it?! (im basically asking for user experience)
Q1) Are any of those cases easy to take off? i plan to take it off once i arrive home! i don't want to scratch the metal of my note 4 and spend some time smashing it to take it off (and which of those are easy to take off?)
Q2) do the screen protectors help the friction? and do they bother the s-pen? i tried it on a note 2 with a random screen protector and it feels awful to work with, but those might be different!

I have a Spigen Case Capsule and it is not good, the sides are too sharp. The overall feel of it is not good so I would steer clear.
Also with or without a case on the phone you can use the S pen as a kick stand.

yeah i tried the s-pen trick but it didn't work for me still im not gonna do that because i might damage my s-pen, specially that there are no replacements here i heard some bad about case capsule somewhere else too saying that its too sharp. but sounds like the other ones are not bad! anyway i was just going to order today
edit: after a bit of using my screen protector no longer has friction! It has so much reflection but anyway i changed my mind now its smooth and good! It just needed to be used a little!

that's bad i guess i better buy the armor than!
I have the Spigen Slim Armor. love it. wireless charging works through it just fine.
I only wish the kickstand was more solid.

How does the Tough Armor compare against the Slim Armor?
I'm gonna be getting a Galaxy Note 4 soon and I'm looking into getting a either a Spigen Tough Armor or Slim Armor case.

I HAVE BOTH. Tough Armor is a little thinker than the Slim Armor. They both protect very well. and the thickness is not noticeable. But if you the type that is a stickler for the slim of the phone, go with the slim armor.

Ok my order arrived today, Let me start with case: its bulky but awesome i love it! buttons are not that terrible but not great, doesn't bother me really, its weird but it makes heart rate sensor easier to use i love it in total, worth the money
(and as you said the kickstand isn't great, but it doesn't really matter much to me)
i also ordered a xionami mi power bank its awesome but super-heavy, anyway
the screen protector is awful, just terrible, i mean, it made me cry to install, after an hour i installed it (a bit miss aligned ) and it not only makes screen look awful, but also gives it even more friction! the only reason i didn't take it right of is money :S i will let it be there for a little bit just for test! and give the other one to a friend or something ! (and i regret applying the wet cloth to screen, realized it was alcohol soaked cloth and it probably damaged my screen s-pen feels aweful to use! its not accuracy but how it feels! i felt that it's damaging my nib so put the old already used nib i had! this was my first and last screen protector
I have the Spigen Tough Armor in gunmetal blue. It does a great job and it is a little bit slimmer than my Otterbox Defender, which I mainly use when I'm at work. Otherwise I use the Spigen when I'm at home or everywhere else but work when I want something less bulky at times.
Also you can't beat the kickstand that comes on the back of the tough armor.

That is quite disappointing, thanks for pointing that little defect out. I won't be getting a Spigen Neo Hybrid case for my Note 4, when I get it.

Spigen has released the metal version which is made of aluminium and won't lose paint.

Yeah, I've seen that online. But Spigen's Neo Hybrid Line of cases don't seem to offer as much protection as their Slim and Tough Armor line of cases does.
I have the neo hybrid metal, it's awesome. ?

Armor series are as tough as the name! Hybrids are less tough and more slim and handy.
