Slim tpu case that does not scratch the metal chamfered edges - Galaxy Note 4 Accessories

I just recently purchased the Note 4 and am awaiting delivery of my new phone. I was checking online to purchase a case before my phone arrives but almost all cases seem to have negative reviews citing scratches on the metal edges from the case.
Can anyone please recommend a good thin tpu case ( I'd prefer a tpu case so that it does not slip when placed on the treadmill sideways) that does not scratch the phone.
Thanks for your help!

bump!!

I made a reviews for several cases , i think they did not hurt your phone.

you are welcome

do not use the spigen capsule it scratched my retail bad within a week!! currently i use the diztronic and have used the kays for a few weeks each and only a few minor scratches. not sure you can use it without getting minor scratches without going naked. but then you run the risk of worse damage

My Diztronic has been on for a month and I have no scratches.

Thinnest "Tough" Case?

Hi everybody, this is my first post on these forums, although I have been reading them for over a year! Anyways, I was looking at buying a case for my Sensation that would keep it safe, but at the same time not adding to much bulk. I have narrowed it down to 4 cases, that I'm sure will all offer the level of protection I need, I am just wondering which one is the least bulky and slimmest.

I was looking at the Seidio with the kickstand, but I don't like all the exposed rubber as that would make it more lint-prone, and more difficult to get out of the pocket(one of my top pritorities).
Thanks in advance!!!

the otterbox's rubber on its case looked low grade compared to the seidios and case mates. it looked like what trident was using..
i was looking into the naztech but i didnt like how there is a bar on the top of the screen lol. id like to see a review on it. might get the case mate pop
If it helps your decision I had one otterbox which I had to have replaced thru otterbox due to silicone stretches and the phone will actually slide up and down in the case. had the replacement for about a month and just took off the second one today due to complaints of me sounding muffled and any back to the old dependable tpu case even though it is a ***** to get out my pocket and attracts lint it is my fave

Yeah it was super easy due to the hard plastic that covered the silicone layer that is one thin I miss about it and am still on the fence about putting it back on. I will say my phone survived a few high drops ( I am a cable tech and it fell from a ladder about 18 feet to concrete with out a scratch)
Sent From My HTC Sensation 4G powered by Sense-O-Matic
Wow, you just made my decision harder.... !!! Haha thanks though, i'm sure i can't go wrong with either of these cases, but I just want to know which is the best.
OK, I'm pretty sure that the Tough Case and Vertex are out:
Tough Case: I saw that the rubber wraps around the screen on the phone, and can attach lint, also, it does seem a bit bulky.
Vertex: Lack of information is difficult. From the pics I don't think it'll work out for me.
Personally I use zagg skins now. They are seriously epic. I have always hated all phone cases because of the bulk they add no matter how thin. But the zagg skins are tough...real tough. And add essentially no weight/thickness to the device. When I got mine i was trying to scratch the back and screen to no avail. zagg also offers a lifetime warranty, but I have no idea what their limits are on it. Plus you can customize it with any picture you want.
Just my opinion. Good luck with your choice.
I have both Case Mate POP and Otterbox Commuter... otterbox has far better plastic because it cant get scratched at all. The case mate pop looks like it's 10 years old after a week. Still I user POP rather than the otterbox because the rubber on otterbox is like a MAGNET for all the dirt that is around you. I used to clean the rubber, and put it in my pocket, and when I get it out it's entirely covered with dust... I don't even know what were they thinking when they were making it. Another thing about the otterbox is that the earphone jack cover never fits like it is supposed to.
I ordered this a week ago because it looks funny
http://www.case-mate.com/HTC-Sensat...-Sensation-Sensation-SE-Tut-Silicone-Case.asp
I will order the case mate tough also... I hope that will be what I want at last
Wow, thanks for the info! So which one of those has a thinner/less bulky form factor, and is easier to get in/out of your pocket?
Case
I bought a Yoobao case off of Ebay, I love it. It is very tough and thin holds the phone tight.
Ehh, thanks for the info, but I already have a TPU and while it is nice and slim, I want something with a little more protection.
I'll put my two cents in, I just got the vertex and I'm very impressed. I've had the commuter and didn't like it. The plastic seemed cheap to me and was too slick. I also had a tpu case that was ok but I didn't think it would protect very well and made the power difficult to press. The vertex is quality, looks and feels very nice and fits great.

Hi, thanks for the input! Does the back material make it easy to get in & out of pockets easily? And also, is it thinner than your otterbox?

Haven't tried the Case Mates yet, nor the Seidio, BUT:
Naztech is a POS - crappy build, plain & simple.
Otterbox's silicone is too damn loose - quoting others here.
Just saying......
Well, I've been on these forums reading for about 5 months now, but this is my first post...
I've had the Casemate Tough Case for the same amount of time I've had my Sensation; about 5 months.
The tough case's hard backing makes it very easy to slip in and out of your pocket. The only exposed rubber is a small section at the top and bottom of the phone and a very thin rim around the screen, the rest is the hard plastic. I never notice that it's collecting lint\dirt, except when I remove the case, there is a small rim of dust collected under the rubber rim, but you can't see it until the case is off.
The exposed rubber parts always look clean and smooth, same goes for the hard plastic outer shell.
The farthest I've dropped my phone with the case on is off the bar... so maybe 4 feet or so? No damage to the phone or the case.
I haven't tried out any other smartphone cases, so I don't have a large frame of reference, but I haven't had a single issue with the tough case. Hope this helps!

Have you actually tried the naztech case? I'm sitting here right now literally starting at it trying to find a problem with something and I can't. I can't compare it with the tough case but its better than the otter.
Like I said before, and I don't know if this even matters, the naztech has cut outs for all the holes on the back cover, none of the other two piece cases have that feature.
As far as the plastic, the naztech has a rubberized back which makes it easier to hold than the otter but still slides into a my pocket easy.
i think you guys should check momax case....
For what it's worth...
I picked up one of these on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0055DHCKS/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details
Inexpensive, fits very well, easy to slip on and off, isn't a lint magnet, reminds me of the great Boxwave slip cover I had on my Nexus One.
Highly recommended.

[Q] Help needed in deciding which case to buy!

Hey guys I ordered my N4 about some time ago and it's gonna be here soon. Meanwhile i was going through the accessories thread and i found many cases here but I'm unable to decide on what to get. Need your help.
Firstly, should i get a full case with a front screen guard or a bumper with front and back protection? I really want to show off the back of my phone but then i don't want to screw it up either so i need your help in deciding for a case combo that will offer good protection. I really don't want flip cases or pouches so that's out of the question now. I've found a few i like and if anyone is using any of them currently, a small review will be appreciated!

I bought XO skins for the front and Xtreme guards for the back.
Also bought Poetic Atmostphere for more protection.
And bought the Ringke Slim and Nillkin cases for a slim and good feeling/looking case.
So IMO, I recommend those.
you think you could edit out the code tags?

no trouble at all. im just lazy but no doubt you will get more responses if peeps can just click.
edit: i got a thing for the robot and i am not ashamed to admit it.
what i would like to see in a case is a way to allow for the sound to come out. my att gs2 speaker is slightly curved to allow for it to bounce. everything i see does nothing but smother that which is already smothered. i think i am going to do nothing more than stick a couple of milimeter wide and tall lumps on the bottom corners and call it good.
I bought the Ringke White Slim Case and I love it! It looks awesome and feels awesome. I also just purchased 3 full body xtreme guards. Total was 6 bucks! So i recommend those! :good:
All of them!!! lol
I got BSE, x-line case(i think), a Rearth case, and a Poetic bumper case but I know I will be getting the official bumper and hopefully a curved screen protector from SGP in the future to replace the front BSE if they make one. Same goes for the SGP Bumpers too. I'll be posting pics of Rearth and BSE soon. Someone should make a thread with a first post containing only user submitted pictures of accessories.

I actually didn't like the look of the atmospheric case. It's just the matter of personal preference although! Let me know about the xtremeguard when you can i heard they have orange peel effect which is why i'm undermining them.

Does it have all the cutouts?

Looking forward to it. Does BSE have cutouts for proximity sensor? Which is better BSE or Xtremeguard? Considering either and which is better among diztronic and rearth?
Xtreme guards are pretty good. But you can tell the quality difference with that and XO skins. XO feels much more premium and smoother. And little to no orange peel effect. So I would suggest XO over Xtreme if you don't mind paying a couple more bucks.

Wait it out if you don't like what you see.
I'm waiting for tech21's Impact Band Cases to come out for the Nexus 4. They replied to a PM on Facebook, and on their official facebook page, that cases for the Nexus 4 are coming, and check it out for yourself, those cases will be better than anything out so far; a good amount of protection from drops, and a detachable clear backplate for showing off the backs of our phones. Here's a link to their Impact Band for the iPhone 5.
I've been using the Ringke Slim as a stopgap for the time being and while it's very good for the $10 total that it cost, I've been wanting to show off the beautiful design of the phone and it's a shame to lose that with the cases out now. The best of both worlds will hopefully be here soon! If you guys agree, pester them on Facebook and their customer service so that they know we're waiting!
Here are pics of the Black Rearth case, its really thin but pretty hard. If your looking for drop protection get something else. On a scale of 1 to 10 for protection with 1 being no case and 10 being something like Otterbox, I give it a 3 almost a 4. I'll be using it for now until I get adjusted to holding this bigger phone but I can imagine myself taking it off soon.
Here is my post on BSE screen protectors as well.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=35194441&postcount=408
Poetic Atmosphere or Diztronic. If you're looking for a slim hard case, I'd go Nillkin
I wanted an otterbox commuter but since that wasn't possible, I just ordered a diztronic. My wife got one for my vivid and the quality and fit our perfect and it adds a much needed grip to the phone and adequate protection without sacrificing the phones good looks.

Yeah from the pics I would go with Diztronic. Rearth didn't cause the protector to peel but it did cause these two small creases on the bottom back BSE that are slowly going away. In the inside pic you can see two lines that go from the top edge to the bottom. That's what caused it.
Oh yeah, my BSE doesn't have a cutout for the proximity sensor but it works just fine.

Diztronix experts: TPU vs hard case?

I'm trying to decide between the matte black TPU case and the hard case from Diztronix. What are the pluses and minuses on each?

Well I have the Matte black Case From Diztronic...Its perfect to me...feels great...fits right and looks very good...but just pick the case you like best my friend bcuz thats all that matters...
I was on their site for a brief moment after seeing the review for the TPU case (ordered one, it looks like a good case!) and saw the hard case as an option, so checked out the pictures.
Biggest difference is that being a hard case, it can't flex to put the phone in, so the top/bottom bits are missing like many other cases. That was the biggest reason I went for the TPU since it has protection all around.
Tpu vs hard case.
TPU is a tad thicker, but provides more protection. All corners are covered.
Hardcase is thinner and does not provide coverage on the top of the phone and bottom.
I have the TPU, and hardcase coming in on Monday. I opted for the hardcase because of the option to put it into my GNex Seidio Surface case. The tpu is too thick and makes the phone too long to fit so hoping this will fit and be my weekend warrior.
Saying all that, I currently got my LG Nexus Bumper. And I have to say I do like it a lot. I actually had one but since sold it when I first got the phone because using the bumper, the phone would not fit in any of my universal cases at the time.
I got the Diztronic tpu and had that and was quite happy with it. Seeing a few threads about the Seidio holster possibility, I went and bought the hard case because I already have the Seidio Surface spring holster. Between all of that happening, I finally got my bumper case and fell in love with the bumper all over again. Thinking I was going to sell it again because I couldn't find a decent holster to house the phone, I tried putting the phone with the bumper into my universal vertical belt holster which fit the phone and tpu case.
To my disbelief and amazement, the phone actually fit! The Diztronic stretched the the case enough where the bumper can pretty much slide in without an issue!
Well sorry for the long a$$ story, but this is what I had personally gone through so far. Not to mention getting yet another case, the Nillkin flip case. Not sure if I am going to keep it though. I may just sell it to another person here or ebay.

What leather or fabric cases are you using?

Already have a sandstone feel case from Krusell, which I love. Although they also have a leather case also, it seems too bulky. This being the most expenaive phone I ever bought I want the cases to feel nice in the hand, not rubbery or plasticky. Tried a dbrand skin, but I still felt anxious every time I layed the phone down and would place it ever so gently.
So, anyone got some leather or fabric cases they had nice experience with?
fitbag, amazon, best ones, comes in leather and fabic and I have used both, awesome.
Agree, look at fitbag...
dont spend $25 on fitbag, use an oakley sunglasses sleeve for like $6 and it is the exact same thing

But what about the difference in THICKNESS? The sleeve for my Oakley's are quite thin and don't offer much protection. The fitbag's, on the other hand, don't seem to be in stock so I can't even test the differences yet.
I have a canvas case, it feels very good.
In absence of the official alcantara case I spent hours looking for a leather case, found krusell and ordered leather and sandstone, now waiting for them to arrive... Looks like screen is not protected though in both.. Was hoping the leather krusell was a good replacement so shame to read it is bulky.
Fitbag look nice but rather not have a sleeve case as tend to use my phone a lot and don't want to remove it every time with 2 hands.
Why Samsung don't make premium leather cases like the iPhone cases with a nice small lip at the front I will never understand

After I bought the sandstone from krusell, I also bought their leather one. Don't know if mine was defective or not, but the band that's glued on the margines of the case came off on one side. It's a real shame, cause it really felt great in the hand. I'm still considering if I should give it another shot and buy one more.

I didn't stop. I use(d) both. The sandstone is really thin and has a nice grip. The lack of a lip is not an issue for me, since I never put the phone screen down.
Thanks.. Look forward to receiving mine, I don't want to install a screen protector as they all seem to have issues so a small lip would be great
If the leather case has the same issue you have I'll be claiming on warranty

Just to update you. I bought another leather case from Krusell. And this one feel just as great as the first one but it feels alot more solid. I see no deterioration as the first one had.

Thanks. I received mine too, although have stuck with the sandstone case as prefer the slimline fit and how grippy it is. Leather case from krussel I find quite slippy in the hand.

Best rugged case note 9 and screen protector

Hi guys, the note 9 has been in the market for sometime and was wondering what's the best rugged case for this phone, I read a few sites but they are all reviewing case when the phone came out and I'm more interested in long term reviews, same with a screen protector, what is the best out there that works well with a case?
Been thinking on going with the otterbox as that is what I have always used with no problem but just read about issues with the note 8 and the otterbox plastic shell making contact with the glass and braking it. I don't mind the bulkiness at all as I work outdoors and I would like to get a belt clip if possible but at the end I would be willing to scarify the holster for the best protection possible.
Thanks in advance for any help.
I can tell you that the Amazon cheap glass protectors and stores like t-mobile that sell them for 45 are almost the same in terms of durability. Store bought are smoother at top and bottom edges. But al use dot matrix with adhesive @top and bottom sensitivity for glass covers has to be turned on. I use a luvvit soft case. I have ever since s5 and always had great results i like thin and protective. My friend has a clone otterbox and it's saved him half a dozen times.
