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.

Waterproof cases and bags/pouches

Anyone know of any waterproof cases like the Otterbox preserver or lifeproof being developed for the Note 4? Anyone know of any waterproof bags or pouches that will fit the note 4? Or even works/seals out water?
I ordered an ipad mini waterproof bag/pouch that should be arriving today. I'll update when I get a chance to try it out. That seems to be the only option so far for making the Note 4 waterproof.

There are plenty of options for pouches out there without having to resort to one made for an iPad Mini. A quick search on Amazon will bring up several of them. Here are two of them:
JOTO Universal Waterproof Case Bag
Says it fits the Note 4, and it has great reviews.. Since there are several reviews that mention that it fits the Note 3 (without a case), I would wager that it does work with the Note 4 (also without a case).
DandyCase Waterproof Case
That one fits the Mega, so it should have no problem with the Note 4. Great reviews too.

I have an otterbox defender on my note 4. So the total length goes up to 6.5" x 3.75" approximately. My ipad mini waterproof pouch just came. My phone is mostly usable even with the pouch. There's a slight problem with being able to push the side volume and power buttons, as well as pulling down the notification shade. I think it's due the tightness/taughtness of the plastic - there's no slack.
I might try a pouch made for 7" tablet, instead of an 8"-incher. It'll be a tight fit and probably have even more tightness issues. All of the other pouches, even for the Galaxy Mega 6.3", were too small for my Note 4 with my otterbox on.
A waterproof case like the Otterbox Preserver would be best.

Gotcha. In your original post, you didn't say that you were looking for something that would fit the Note 4 with an Otterbox Defender, rather that you were looking for something to fit the Note 4. That's why I posted those links. Thanks for clarifying your needs. Knowing all of the details is important for people as they try to help.

I found this on amazon. The medium is just slightly bigger than the phone and is clear on both sides: http://www.amazon.com/LokSak-Waterproof-Pouch-Pack-4-5/dp/B000BT80U2/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
This what i ordered and arrived today: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L1R5UPG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 . It's unusable because it's a little too big and the backside is opaque.

Not a case I would trust my phone to. Reviews for their other cases are poor, citing an inability to use the phone while it's in the case.

I don't think any phone can be used, with a waterproof case or pouch that has a touchscreen. Capacitive touchscreens use small electrical currents if I'm not mistaken, and when wet, the screen on any waterproof device goes weird. I have the Gear 2 which is water resistant, and I can't use the screen when it has water on it otherwise it goes all weird

There are actually many waterproof cases and pouches that are designed so that you can use your smartphone's touchscreen. In fact, essentially all of the good quality ones allow that. Of course, when the screen protector on the case gets wet, it can be difficult to use the screen for the reason you mentioned. But when dry, a waterproof case of any decent quality will still allow you to use the screen.

Bring up the post.. hopefully there will be many waterproof case coming [emoji1]

Getting a Galaxy Note 4 Here Soon; Recomend me some accesories?

I'm getting a Note 4 here soon and wanted some recommendations on accessories. Trying to keep things under $100 shipped for everything. Mainly the two things I need is a good dock and case, as well as a fitness arm band. I'm an Uber driver and the app does not rotate into landscpae mode so something that I can use in portrait or landscape is a pluss but the biggest thing is dead reliable and easy to remove and compatible with the case. As far as the case goes well I don't want anything ridiculous bulky but definitely something that will protect the phone from minor wear and tear and prevent damage in the event of drops. A waterproof case is not a requirement unless said case maintains hte profile of not being too bulky.
I have more portable battery chargers, usb cables, and chargers than I know what to do with. So I am good on those

For cases that provide good protection yet keep it not too bulky check out the seidio solez pro which is a hybrid case and also includes a kickstand, also my favorite is the speck candy shell grip case provides excellent protection and gruo while being pretty slim. I hear the Samsung OEM protective cover is good too. As far as docks I use the iottie one touch dock.

Thanks. I was looking into the iOttie Easy One TOuch 2. I notice the bottom support bracket is adjustable. Can this be adjusted to allow me to have access ot the charging port and S Pen while mounted?

I have the slightly older version my charging Port is fully accessible while docked but the s pen is not, the newer version may allow that though.

i had the UAG case on mine. Offers good protection and isnt to bulky, but it does have a very tight fit

Those look pretty nice. RIght now im looking into the Seidio Dilex and the Ballistic Tough Jacket Maxx. The Ballistic is somewhat on the bulkier side but it comes with screen protection and I've owned Ballistic cases before and they are ROCK solid.
I went ahead and ordered an iOttie One Touch 2

get the iblason armorbox and the samsung oem qi back. an itian wireless charger + a 3 coil charger for the desktop and some 3m double sided tape for fixing the itian in your car and you should be good.

Ehhh I think I'm good on all that. I'm not big on wireless chargers

I tried the Tech 21 and now have the Samsung Protective cover.
The Samsung Protective Cover is FANTASTIC. And the same night I got the phone, Samsung sent me a 50% off any item in their store under $50 so I bought the case with it. Its slim, fits well, It almost looks like the Note 4 was made as a rugged phone and doesnt have a case on it at all. I would rate it a 10 out of 10. the tech 21 I woudl rate a 4 out of 10, I knew when I was putting it on I didnt like it.

You will have access to the charging port but the S-pen isn't that easy to get in and out. Here are some pics I recently took of it http://imgur.com/a/GP92Y
The s-pen has to be pulled on a little bit so it makes it difficult to try and wiggle it out while driving. It's not impossible though.

Otterbox Defender.. THE best case for the Note4 as far as protection. I've had one on mine since day 1, and have dropped it several times and my phone is still perfect. JMHO..

I had a look at it, it looks solid like any other otterbox case but It looks like itd be just too bulky for my tastes.

Hi,
I highly recomend you the original Samsung Vehicle Dock.
I got it since December and I love it, I don't know how I could live without it!!
Greetings.

[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.

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.

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!

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.

Can anyone recommend a case?

Hey folks, I have a qi fast charging magnetic charger (linked below)
I tried sticking the ring to the outside of the case am using but after a few weeks of on/off the magnet it came off. I also had the ring under the case but it's too thick to stick reliably.
I'm trying to find an ultra thin case that won't look warped when I stick the ring under the case, or maybe even has a cut out inside the case for the plates you can get or the ring, and is thin enough to stick well on the charger
Suggestions would be awesome!!

I have that same case and I have a metal place stuck to the inside of it for my magnetic car mount. I can't see or feel the plate. I'm not sure if my plate is the same thickness as your ring.

100% get the Rhino Shield Bumper Case. Amazing drop protection (I've dropped many times on all sides, including front and back, with no concern) and keeps a super thin minimal design. Back is completely open. Pairs perfectly with dbrand skins on the back!

I'm loving the Spigen case!!

I've been using OtterBox for my last two notes. I really like the Symmetry model on the Note 9. Great protection and not too bulky.

I'm using the Armadillotek case and it's great. Feels very comfy and offers drop support and protection.

I'm using Spigen Neo Hybrid + Liquid Crystal Clear, spigen cases are awesome!

Is wireless charging working with the Spigen cases? On reviews of Amazon they say not. Is this true?

Accordingly with this video, is OK

Official Samsung cases.

Well... I'm using the Samsung clear case for my Note 9. It's very thin, but also a very tight fit so I'm not sure how it'll fit with that ring. Also you'd obviously see the ring.
Does that ring not scratch the back glass?

I will recommend Speck to anyone with a Note 9. Presidio grip is amazing

I use Tech21 cases. They're very good.

I can answer this question: yes. I tried a Spigen case yesterday and it worked well.

I bought this, it is on sale so, and I love the wood back plate, bonus you can attack lenses, still hasnt arrived so...

When i bought Note9 i knew that i must buy some tough case for it, this is most expensive phone that i`ve got so far and protection before look. So i was wondering about lovemei or lovmei cases, you know, 6 screws, big metal case that you can use also as self-defence, car lift, surfing, scateboard (just attach wheels ) and for space shuttle heat cover. But you know, NFC payments, and wireless charger - this is very important for me. So i manage to find one case that costs lot for me, and i bought it with little bit of fear, but what i`ve got... I`ve bought SUPCASE CLAYCO XENON. It covers both sides of phone, it is little bit tricky to mount but effect is brilliant! Phone looks very good in it, it is not as bulky as i thought it would be, first impressions was not so good because of stylus experience at screen. When i try to work with stylus i felt resistance between tip of stylus and screen but after few hour of phone usage everything came to normal. I think that screen cover was just extremely clean and as soon as i pick up few calls surface was back to normal experience. So - if anyone want to have best possible protection and want their phone to still look good and not so bulky this is answer.
