got my note 4 today 10/17/2014. they had a couple of the platinum cases, but they couldn't sell them to me because there was a recall. i guess that's why seidio still has it listed as "under development". even still, 40 bucks for case and holster from best buy, vs 55 bucks plus shipping at seidio for the exact same case (except logo on kickstand). I picked up a spigen tough armor to hold me over in the meantime, but i thought i'd give you guys an update

They were selling a few when I picked mine up in AL. So YMMV on this one
yeah they had three in the store, but the sku was removed because there was a recall on the product (per the bb guy)
That's odd Best Buy had the Seidio cases and Seidio doesn't have them. When I called them they said there was no ETA for the case/holster combo. Best Buy is also $20 cheaper than Seidio for the same case.
Its always like that. Seidio sales in bulk to bestbuy and produce cases for them first. In about a month they will have there on cases online for 59.00 . Been like this for yrs.

Seidio has the Surface w/ holster available. Best Buy had theirs about 2 weeks before they were available on the Seidio website but for some reason they were recalled. Everything on Seidio's website except the Surface & Surface holster are under development.
Case looks really good. A littel bit bulky for my taste.

Just got mine from Best Buy and it's not bulky at all. It's a thinner profile than my UAG case and really covers up the edges of the phone well, so much so that I can no longer see the halo on my tempered glass.

Its bulky compared to my Ringke slim. UAG cases are bulky also. I guess it all depends on what you are comparing to.
Best Buy has them back in stock and it exactly the same size I use every year. $39.99

Got mine from best buy for $33 when i bought my note 4
got one of these cases today, however will be returning it tomorrow. I dont suffer from the unsnapping like some people have said, however, the phone feels very loose in the case and the case creaks and is not "snug". Probably picking up the ringke case tonight from amazon.
Hi all.
My 6P has developed a deformity on the case next to the volume buttons as it's bent slightly. It's not massively noticeable however before it gets any worse I'd like a case that is bend-resistant. Any suggestions?

Looks pretty sturdy but damn that $71 price I just saw on Amazon, LOL!!!
In a Budget? I got this from aliexpress free shipping... I didnt like it cause back plate seems to loose fit... A bit tacky But... Its super cheap, it work and its aluminum, so it ll not bend easily

Yeah that was crazy when I saw that. Amazon apparently doesn't have any black ones so the price was from 3rd party suppliers charging that much. Lol.

I wrote Spigen and asked if there were any plans for a Neo Hybrid Case, they said yes, and while there is no listing of the Neo Hybrid on thier website, it just popped up on Amazon.

I am coming from the GS6, and have a Neo Hybrid on it. It is the best case I have every used. Little to no added bulk, and awesome protection. I have dropped my GS6 all over the place and dont have as much as a minor scratch on it.
I don't know where the post is but someone on reddit had a link that showed Spigen tweeted it would be on the Spigen site by weeks end. Code: fallfest gets you 20% off on their site until 10/28
Yes, great case. Its the only case I ever pay for.

Funny the case isn't on the Spigen site yet when it is in the header image for the Google page on the Spigen site. One of my favorite cases Spigen has ever made. I have it for multiple phones.

It's there: http://www.spigen.com/collections/pixel/products/neo-hybrid-google-pixel-xl-case?variant=27076756673
The blue one is missing though...
Thanks for this. It is a pretty sweet looking case. Not a big case fanatic but need to get one since the phone isn't cheap.
I cannot afford this case. Lol. Added one to the cart and they bumped me to a million
These are available on eBay direct from Spigen for $16.99 and free shipping. All three colors are there. The only catch is that it is a "pre-order" and they give an expected deliver date between Mon. Oct. 31 and Fri. Nov. 4 as of now. Amazon and the Spigen website have them for $24.99 and not all color options on either. I don't exactly get it but I'm in for one.

I think that was made in Zero G on the ISS. Or made as One case to rule them all! ?
I got mine today. Got the blue one for my black Pixel coming tomorrow. The blue looks really nice. The case feels nice in the hand. Also the case makes it pretty much the same size as the 6P without a case. https://imgur.com/a/Tw8Nk
Ended up with the blue version easier to find the phone. Really wanted a clear case for my silver phone. However I want one that protects well but can not seem to find one totally clear. Would love to go naked with the phone but it costs too much not to give it full protection.
Got mine this morning. Nice case to be fair! The back is a nice soft touch material and the added bulk isn't too bad. It's a nice snug fit too which is reassuring. I imagine it is fairly impact resistant due to the outer plastic surround.
Still not sure if I will use this or the clear spigen tpu case which is a little less bulky and holds on to the prettiness of the phone, of course provides less protection than the neo hybrid too mind.
Thanks for pics, I just ordered one this am.

It's so so expensive, as nice as it looks...
$25 bucks for a case to protect your (minimum) $750 investment really isn't so so expensive. Just my opinion, but you are certainly entitled to your own.
Got mine in yesterday and I'm pretty happy with it overall. It looks great and feels like it should add a good bit of protection. It is just a touch bulky, but not too bad.
I also grabbed the Neo. I was hoping the bumper was aluminum but it's not....

Got a Supcase beetle, just found out its for the regular size, they don't make one for XL. It appears the only drop resistant ones are from I Blastion and Otterbox, with Otterbox being around $60. Anything cheaper? I migth have to get the otterbox from my local store, then when the iBlastian comes from Amazon return the otterbox.

The Speck Presidio claims to withstand a 10 foot drop. It's 40 at the Verizon store but you can find it for less online. I have one on mine and think it offers minimal bulk for the protection.

I have the Spigen Rugged Armor that is reasonably priced. Seems to give good drop protection and I know about dropping.
Unless you want the bulk of a LifeProof go with Spigen Tough Armor for sure. It's what I use. I've ordered 8 different cases and you can tell it will provide the best protection by far. I think it was $12 or $15.
Makes no sense because Spigen cases in order of thinnest/least protective to thickest/most protective is this..
Rugged Armor
Slim Armor
Tough Armor
Yet the Slim armor is twice the cost of the tough armor
Tried tough armor , neo-hybrid and rugged armor and have been liking the rhinoshield bumper lately. Used to hate the idea of a bumper but got this from a black Friday sale and it's my new favorite and supposed to have 11' drop protection.

I switch cases through the week but have had the same concern about the back glass. So far so good though not even a scratch on it yet. But I am really careful after completely destroying my 6p. Loved the 6p but the dam thing was fragile.

Love spigen cases but I usually wait for them on Amazon first.
That tough armor looks, well, tough! I have one on my 3 XL. Is there generally a lag before they show up on Amazon? I show an estimated delivery date of October 23rd through 24th for the 4XL
I could get a caseology but I like the stand on the spigen

I've always bought my pixels after their initial release. The 4 is the first pre-order I've done and just went with a Google case for now since it's what I've had on my 2XL for a while now.
Amazon has 2 XL cases up now. Available the 16th. I'm getting the ultra hybrid.
I've always had the tough armor cases. Always good. For now I bought the Liquid air case. It is 10.99 on amazon right now. We'll see how it works out.
Ordered on Amazon, cancelled my order with spigen.com
I always had the Rugged Armor, but thought I'd change it this year.
I'd check Spigen's eBay for these cases. The official online store for Spigen usually sells them at full price and the eBay store's pricing is usually priced around half of the listed prices. They ship from Irvine, CA.
That soigen crystal case seems like a no brainer. Fully clear so you can see ALL the color of your device in all it's glory. Some cases cover the back, others cover the buttons.

I went for the Burgundy Neo-hybrid. I was all set to get a clear case; the better to see my orange Pixel it but it was sold out so now it's black that wont see until next spring when I sell the phone. I'll also pick up a nice leather wallet case when one becomes available. Link to the Neo here ----> https://www.amazon.com/Spigen-Hybri...el+4+xl&qid=1571356020&s=wireless&sr=1-6&th=1
I've been running a thin fit on my 2 XL since new. Love it. Just saw they have a white thin fit I'll be pre ordering on Amazon.
Just got my Neo Hybrid and Rugged Armor cases. I was originally going to just pick one to keep and return the other one, but wow, I love the way both these cases feel. The back has a nice matte feel to it. Fingerprints don't smudge on it. I have oily hands and it's not noticeable on these cases

Hmm ... This might be a YMMV type of thing. Only just holding both cases with no phone in it, I would lean toward the Rugged Armor being "grippier". Only because on the Neo Hybrid, the sides of the phone case might be slippery to some. But close tie between the two.
