I did the slickwraps carbon fiber black with a tempered glass protector with the wrap on top. Also the front wrap doesn't have cutouts for the recent or back button but it still works i think it looks better too. Screen sensitivity took a hit though. Wish evutec would make a kevlar case for the note 7

Surprised I haven't seen any reviews of the Cygnett cases. I've seen other Cygnett cases on previous phones and always wanted to try them out.
The case is a simple snap on design. The Carbon Fiber back looks really sleek and you can tell it is of high grade carbon fiber material. My favorite part of the case is actually the sides. The sides are of a matte finish that really enhances the grip of the phone. If you're looking for a real slim case, then this will be a good one to look for. The case is kind of expensive sitting at 30 dollars, but I feel the quality is worth it. I've had similar snap on cases from Ringke, SGP, and Elago, but the Cygnett case design is superior and overall the case just feels much sturdier. Also the matte finish has the best grip of any snap on case I've ever used.
If you're looking for protection, this case won't help much at all. I have dropped the phone from 5ft onto concrete and I heard a small bounce. When I looked at the phone, it was perfect, but I wouldn't rely on it.
Wow Cool :thumbup:
How is the lip on the device? I like that carbon fiber and their brushed aluminum one and I need to get a new case but I want to make sure that the lip is decent on the front if i place the phone face down.

The Lip is barely there. I'm talking like a 0.7mm lip over the front. The glass won't touch the ground when lied flat on its face.I even have a Mime glass protector on it and it still doesn't touch the ground.
nice casing and looks very sturdy
Does the back feel matte or glossy?

Glossy
I have the white carbon fiber version and the sides are more slippery (not matte) and the back looks like it is just woven tinsel. I would recommend getting the black version, NOT the white. I stupidly thought that it would look like the black carbon fiber, just white...

Just got my white S6 today along with my black Orzly Fusion bumper case and thought I would share. The case feels great in the hand and is very slim. The buttons click nicely and the back keeps the camera lens from touching the surface when laying flat.

Have anyone tried DBrand skin of Note7?
And how are the edges doing? Are they peeling off?
I like the stone/concrete texture. Is it smooth/plastic feel, or like real semi-gloss concrete?
What about metal? Are the titanium strips bumpy or just printed texture?
What about wood? Or Matte?
*Extra question: Is sandstone case available for Note 7 yet?
Bump. Brah
I currently on a s7 edge dbrand skin. I would think the note 7s dbrand skin would be a little similar. I have the matte on the front and back. Fits perfectly and it wraps around the edge perfectly. My front skin actually covers up the front buttons so I can't even see them when they light up.
I have the carbon fiber back only. Fits perfect and has not peeled or bubbled at all. Fit is to the nanometer, so it took a couple tries to align it right. Follow online video instructions. Very happy with it! Carbon fiber gives it a little texture to give it some better grip. Note 7 ATT black.
Thanks guys.
I really like the concrete one. But im not sure if the grip feeling is 80% like real polished concrete or not. I dont dare to order if im not sure because order to my country is expensive AF. Couldnt find a good concrete review on YT.
Now im looking forward to the titanium ones. Does anyone know if those strips texture bumpy 3D or just printed?
I got the mahogany just to cover the back and protect from scratches. When it's out of the case the corners catch on my palm, when I had a slickwraps skin on my S7E it was a perfect fit. This isn't as smooth and you can tell the difference on the edge because it's too thick.
As for the texture it does have a smooth wood type finish. Not quite raw tree bark, but you can feel it as you pass your finger over.
Can everyone post their screen protector and case combination that works (no peeling edges). A few combinations were mentioned in individual posts but it would be good to have them listed together. Post away!
Has anyone found a good screen protector for the Note 7 that works with either the Spigen Neo Hybrid case or Caseology Parallax series cases by chance?
How about a protector with either a Samsung S-view or Spigen S-view case?
Thank you for this thread. Was about to create a similar one.
I have a Note 7 on pre-order and want to ensure a screen protector + case is with me before it arrives. Have spent a few hours going through various threads looking a for good combo that works without the screen protector peeling from the edges.
Ideally, would like to buy a tempered glass protector and a clear case. Any suggestions, please?
Also, does the official Samsung clear case and screen protector work well together? If tempered glass is a no-go, that would be my fallback option till something better comes along.
I have the Spigen Ultra Hybrid and now thinking of ordering this https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product..._act_image_4?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A7ZMMLW05YAY7
adhesive on top and bottom no on edges and it's size is case friendly. Still waiting for the UAG Cobalt
Good call on this topic!

I went to the Zagg kiosk at the mall and they had made the Zagg Clear HD case friendly and I am currently using a Caseology Parallax with no issues. The screen protector is a good one!

Nice! So no edges of the screen protector are peeling up from the edges? My wife's got that one case too and her Skinomi Techskin screen protector is doing well, the protector is still on pretty well but there is a very slight peel on one edge but it's slight and sits back down for a few days if you push it back down. My Spigen Neo Hybrid case doesn't play well with my Skinomi Techskin screen protector. I've gotta find another screen protector that'll work.

Yeah so far I have no problems I switch between the parallax case and the spigen rugged armor and everything has been good. Zagg has always been a favorite of mine on all my phones and they will only set you back like 25.00.
Hope this helps!
Verizon tempered screen protector and Samsung brand LED case.
I have the JETech from amazon uk with Spigen neo hybrid crystal. Works perfectly have checked with multi touch test app and there is no problem with touch sensitivity anywhere. No sign of any halo or other video. problem.
Easy install just have to line up with touch key lights.
I'm using icarez screen film with choetech ultra thin hybrid case and it doesn't peel off the icarez since the bumper goes over a protector a bit and holds it down. Also got another thin tpu Myriann that works with it the same way. Tried spigen ultra hybrid and it sometimes will peel it off very slightly but a few adjustments and it's good again. With the ringke fusion hybrid case forget it. Peel galore!

No lifting of those Samsung screen protector on sides nor top and bottom on that Poetic case. I tried it on a SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle and they did lift up, so had to return that case.

Adheres the glass over the whole area? Or only the top and bottom from the jtech glass?
The Samsung oem clear case is working very well. Comfortable and feel solid. Better than the s6 s view case that I had that broke easily.
I will prefer a tempered glass but unfortunately none is good. Currently using oem Samsung SP. Affordable. Fit well at the edge. But can see lines over it after scratch and using s pen. But that's the purpose to protect the screen right
Yes...as the title implies, the UAG case and the Samsung screen protector coupled together was not a good fit.
I've settled on the UAG case. Now I need to find a screen protector.
Anyone have a UAG + screen protector success story?
The Samsung Screen Protector worked well with the standard Samsung Galaxy Note7 Case S-View Standing Flip Cover - Black. But the case didn't really feel like it was protecting anything. Plus it was a pain to hold. Blah...
Been going without a screen protector. Screen still looks pristine.

Bodyguardz screen protector works with Uag case. Some have said the edges start to peel, but might be due to not being lined perfectly.
UAG cases coming with one hole on top instead of two. Looks better this way.
the one i got has 2 holes on top.

I have the UAG case and this screen protector from Amazon and it has worked the best. I've tried a lot. As long a you center the screen protector evenly when you apply it and maybe wait over night before you put the UAG case back on.
