Spigen Neo Flex... - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories

I am not seeing this screen protector mentioned much. I put it on dry first so as to have screen protection the first few days I set up my phone. Before I received my note 9 it was obvious I would have to set things up differently due to the taller aspect ratio. The s pen did mostly fine even though it was a quick, terrible and bubbly install.
This morning I put it on wet and have noticed it self heals much quicker. I let it dry naturally a couple hours on it's own, have let it set in the sun a few moments twice and intentionally using in the sun to see how bad the glare is and help the edges cure. I have some Ringke sp's I probably won't end up using them. I figured the neo flex would suck but quite the contrary. Unless you use the s pen extensively and the pressure sensitivity very hard these neo flex might be the answer for you.
I might try a Whitestone down the road but already have some more of these neo flexes on the way. I work in the elevator trade so my phone is always at risk of breaking and screen protectors definitely getting scratched. All my glass ones eventually end up getting cracked, mostly from the most unusual of things and not drops. I will update this topic should my opinion change and when I get my first heavy scratch.
BTW, I am using Samsung rugged cover as my daily driver case. I also have a Spigen tough armor that mates well with the neo flex sp. I asked Spigen if they could do a case similar to the Samsung rugged cover. It would be nice to have the comfort of the Samsung case with the tactile buttons minus the bixby button. I asked to leave the bixby button flat like the tough armor case to avoid accidental presses.
This isn't a review or obligation from Spigen. I bought these on my own, have more on the way and have not seen them mentioned much. I also asked Spigen if they can go any harder on the hardness and still accommodate the edges. I doubt it. Just wanted to give y'all a heads up since so many screen protectors are duds these days and good tempered glass is expensive. I wish power support made sp's and glass for Samsung phones. I have used their products on Motorola's and iPhones and they are usually the best.
The reviews on Amazon are pretty harsh. I wanted to leave a 5 star review with a small criticism but I think Amazon is trying to curtail dubious reviews of which mine should've been a verified purchase so wtf. For $10 I think some people give the wet installation of these a try.

[Q] Two Spigen Neo Hybrid Case questions

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2267412
I want that case but I have 2 concerns!
1. Should I go without a screen protector?
Comment: I don't like screen protectors cause they ALWAYS have air bubbles then that's money down the drain cause they annoy me.
2. I heard the charger port opening is small and breaks easily, also spigen is bad about replacing the border. Opinion/experience?
Comment: I understand the charger port being small for it's "slim" design but I want everybody's opinions on these two issues! Any criticism is constructive in my book!
My frame broke in about 3 weeks with CAREFUL usage and barely taking the case off. Just chucked the case and frame and went naked for now with a carbon fiber skin on the back

Dont buy the neo hybrid!

My neo hybrid Chinese knock off broke too, but I have the original for about 3 months and I'm well happy.
about the screen protector, the cheap ones indeed leave air bubbles and are crap, but I've been using the better ones on my Galaxy Nexus and now on S4 and they are really good and they don't leave greasy finger stains on the screen as much as when you don't have one on.
try this one for starters... not expensive but really good, I'm using one right now

I've had the Spigen Neo Hybrid since August and I have no regrets, a little chip in the plastic frame from what be an otherwise very unfortunate drop. Sorry to hear others are having issues with theirs, and I think they updated the design to make it less prone to breaking.
Broken Frame
Same problem here, broken frame after 1 month

I hate screen protectors too but they are absolutely necessary to preserve the longevity of the phone. I bought the tempered glass screen protector from Spigen Glas.TR SLIM. If it wasn't for the rounded lip around the protector you'd never think it wasn't the actual glass of the touch screen. It was the best 35 dollars I ever spent.
I have had the original Neo sine the phone came out and it is still in greta condition. I would definitely get a screen protector. I would recommend the Spigen crystal series, it is hardly even noticeable.
DO get a screen protector. I know this phone has a tough glass front, but better to be safe than sorry right? I have a Spigen crystal clears which I picked up for like $4 on amazon (it is a genuine product) and its a great screen protector.
DON'T get the hybrid, my frame broke near the USB port, the back warped and pulled away from the phone, Spigen only has a 90 warranty and ONLY if you buy it from them.

Screen protectors are not ABSOLUTELY neccessary. It really depends on how you care for the phone.
I've never used screen protectors. I keep my phone in my front pockey, glass facing in, and the only other thing I ever keep in that pocket is money (which is made of cloth, so it's not going to hurt the phone)
I've never had a single scratch.
If I were to drop the phone or slam it into something, a screen protector isn't going to help anyway.
Now if you keep your phone in a pocket with keys, or a purse with everything else that goes into a purse, or anything like that, that's a different story. But even then a screen protector isn't going to stop your phone from getting messed up eventually. It's goign to wear out much quicker than projected.
I have the ultra thin glass screen protector -> http://www.spigen.com/brands/samsun...-glas-t-nano-slim-premium-tempered-glass.html
Cases still fit and it looks great and feels better than that.
Quick question guys, if the hybrid breaks easy recommend another case that looks just as good if you don't mind!
another question, cant he tempered glass get air bubbles and can you take it off, also do all the sensors work flawlessly?
1.) Currently using a tempered glass screen protector on mine (Which is alil bit thicker) makes the "Lip protection" non-existent. So I'd get some sort of screen protector because that lip is pretty minimal.
2.) Had that concern for myself before I bought mine, truth is..if you use the OEM Sammy cable you'd be fine. Also to put on and off the case correctly lol.
BTW: Had mine since July and its still going other than a few lil chips on the frame..

Ultra Thin Air for like 10$ or the Slim Armor (Be careful with the white version though, mine is starting to fade in to yellow in certain areas )
Any screen protector / Tempered glass can get air bubbles if theres dust..But for some its normal to have bubbles as they go away within like 12hours. Tempered glass are removable annnnnd all the sensors work great with mine.
I've been using the Neo Hybrid for about two months now. It fits good and snug and shows no signs of wear. The plastic bumper is a little thin around the charging port but treat it well and you'll be OK. Plus, the button extenders on the sides feel really good and "clicky", instead of mushy as some of the rubber ones do.
As far as screen protection goes, I've always used the Zagg Invisible Shield but when I bought the S4 the sales guy threw in the Bulletproof protector for free. He even applied it for me, and I wanted to shake his hand afterward. Perfect positioning, no bubbles (I mean absolutely none), and he did it in about three tenths of a second.

I've never used a screen protector on ANY of my phones, never had an issue, so I don't believe in them. as far as the Neo Hybrid breaking near the charger port, I don't get how so many people break them, I remove my case once a day to switch batteries and I've never had an issue, maybe take a little care when removing the case

I use a glass screen protector. Maintains the glassy feel without sacrificing screen security. The neo hybrid is overhyped in my opinion. I bought it and the main thing that I did not like is how easy it was to press the power button. Without the case, the power button rarely got pressed in my pocket, but with the case on, any light tap on would push it and turn my screen on.

[Q] How good is sigen glass screen protector?

How good is sigen glass screen protector?

They seem to very hard to be scratch proof. Do they prevent damage of screens from falling? If not, I probably will choose a cheaper one because I never put keys or coins along with my phones. Is there any other paricular good points of glass screen protectors?

i just ordered mine yesterday i will let you know..hopefully it works amazing
If it's at least equal to the one of the s4 I can say it's the best glass screen protector I came across. And yes it protects even on the little falls. Because it protect mine when I left fall down from my hand it wasn't a big fall but when I lift the phone up the screen protector had a crack and the original phone screen had absolutely nothing
Great to hear that. Will order one.
I currently have the Zagg one on mine, it works very nicely. Throw it in my motorcycle jacket pocket all the time without worrying about scratching the actual screen, especially since it has a lifetime warranty and I can just get a replacement if it scratches up too badly.
I'm sure the Spigen ones are similar.
Great to hear that, will get one.
I am currently using the Luvvitt and I have nothing but stellar remarks for it. It's cheap, and it works flawlessly. My first one had a microscopic nick in the top right edge that was preventing the screen protector from adhering on that edge. I let them know last Friday and SUNDAY the mailman hand delivered me a new one.. Not even sure how all of that happened but yeah, great customer service to boot.
tech armor
i got the tech armor ultraclear ballistic glass and have to say this is a pretty nice investment. It's $20 from amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IGISUTG/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
and its crystal clear, easy to put on, and so far seems to be pretty rock solid. i havent thrown it down a gravel road or anything, but i am pretty impressed by how clear it is, how smooth it feels, and the time it took to install, which was about 5 minutes, followed by smoothing out one 'line' across the middle that looked like a crease or something, but went away by pushing it with my finger.
5 stars for this product.

:good: Gotta back you up on that one. Bought one and it's fantastic.
So I bought the GLAS.tr Nano the day it came out and was really excited about it. Unfortunately I was the first negative review on Amazon for the product. I got in contact with the company and it seems as though there was a batch that had issues with the tack used to stick it to the screen. Mine had several areas where it would just never stick along the edges and a huge area near the bottom that had no stick to it. I informed them and they promptly sent me a replacement. The replacement is perfect in every way and I couldn't be happier.
That said, I ordered the top rated glass protector with rounded edges on Amazon that was something like $12 for my girlfriend while I was having the issues with Spigen. Honestly the quality is almost identical for 1/3 the cost. If I had it to do over I would not have gone with the Spigen protector and gotten two of the cheaper options.
I did change my review to four stars but did not go with a full five due to it being over priced compared to the competition.

i have the same....works great....fit well...and super cheap to boot compared to the spigen:good:
I had the Spigen GlastR Nano on the S5 but had a speck of stuff under the screen. Pulled it off and installed the Zagg Glass and damn if I did not get another tiny speck under the Zagg also.
The Spigen is a nice glass but I like the Zagg a little better. Thinner, softer edges, easy tags for the install and it just feels plain nice.
MIME Feather Glass is what I ended up getting. Part of my decision was that I planned on getting my T-Mobile SGS5 from Delaware to avoid sales tax and I needed to have the screen protector (wanted to try glass for the first time too) by the time I had it too. I live in NJ and MIME is made in New York, so the quick shipping (free anyway but quick since we're neighbors) made it a good decision for me...
And I couldn't be ANY HAPPIER with my decision. It's so thin that I can barely feel it's there. I know if I went any thicker, I wouldn't like the feeling of going over the home button. The fit is beyond perfect and I don't have any scratches on it AT ALL yet. Keep in mind I go to the gym a lot and my pockets have zippers and I'm sure I'm constantly rubbing up against them when I take it out and put it in (that's what she said). No scratches at all. Responsiveness is completely unhindered.
I would highly recommend it...
---------------------------
Also, a little tip (regardless of brand I suppose, but the "purple film", basically a screen sized film with a very very light adhesive for "anti-dust preinstallation film" MIME gave actually came in VERY HANDY for me...) for the install!
credits to BillTheCat: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1015394
okay, the only advice I really took here was to go into the bathroom at home (low dust environment!) and run the hot water in the shower for a bit (steam it up, even less dust).
at that point, I wiped my screen of course, then I just took the protector, handled it from the sides to make sure I got no oil on the adhesive side, and lined it up just right (worked for me, maybe you might want to try the tape method, but it may be difficult with glass protectors) and laid it down (bottom first to line up the home button perfectly). i ended up with 2 pieces of dust towards the top. damn it.
then the purple film came in damn handy. i very carefully (with my fingernails, but being careful not to actually touch under the glass and get marks on it) lifted up the glass and peeled it back just enough to get "purple film" underneath and "grab" the dust particles off of the screen. i was afraid it may leave marks or residue, but it didn't at all. not sure how painter's tape would work in this case, but I'm proud to say that I have a 100% dust free, mark free, PERFECT installation. =DDDD
then again, I have some patience and a fairly steady hand, so this may or may not work for you. I used to make money back in middle school changing out LED's on Nokia 5100's, 6100's, 8200's series... ah the old days haha. that required some steady hands. i still have my 8260 that i converted to the 8860 and soldered on the slide pin that made the sliding cover active. removing and rotating the polarized LCD films to invert the screens.. anyone remember all4cell? man i feel old now.
wow, now i'm thinking about the old TDMA networks and how much i hated GSM phones cause you couldn't change the carrier tags (on Nokias). i guess if it was still like back then, the T-Mobile Galaxy S5 threads would be the VoiceStream Galaxy S5 threads MIRITE??!
biggest advice though: go to the bathroom, steam it up (not too much)! that alone helps with the dusty environment, i thought that was very very good advice.
I got this with US$25 and working fine

It's the LUVVITT brand. Maybe it's a little thicker than the Spigen, but honestly it's barely noticeable. Especially when you factor in the little ridge along the screen of the S5.

That's good to know as I shop around for glass screen protector. Thanks!
I just got it in the mail today. Had to put it on right away. Extra smoothness! I've had the Spigen Glas series since the S4
I went cheap and got this http://www.ebay.com/itm/151282778240?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
Works like a charm, and for $6 you can't really argue..why would I spend $20-$40 for a glass screen when this phone is already made with tough Gorilla glass? I also have this http://www.ebay.com/itm/351046202801?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 case, so it's not I'll ever break my screen now when dropping my phone..

In my experience the best part of the glass protectors is that they feel the best. For the longest time I bought the super cheap xtremeguardz protectors on slickdeals which were good for protection but felt too tacky and got really dirty. Same with the free protector that came with spigen case for my Nexus 5. The glass ones feel like you don't have a screen protector on, shed minor damage readily, and provides the best extreme impact protection (at the cost of its own life though).
The biggest drawback is that they can chip if you drop them on cement... depends on the person, I know people who go an entire year with no screen protector, and I know others who drop their phones on pavement regularly. I recently reviewed the Movaluate 7 protector (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2744597) which has served me well so far.

Review: Techmatte/AmFilm screen protector

I've used these on a couple different devices now, and in my opinion/experience they are by far the best screen protectors! For years I bought Ghost Armor screen protectors, but I'd never go back to Ghost Armor now. Techmatte protectors are priced much lower, yet still offer a lifetime warranty, and they feel and look MUCH better! I installed it almost 3 weeks ago, but wanted to review it after I had for used a while so I could say how it looked and held up over time. Fortunately, just like every TechMatte protector I've used in the past these don't scratch and don't peel up over time. So 2 weeks after installing it still looks absolutely perfect! On the Note 4 they cover the screen up to where the glass begins to curve, so there is no issue of it not sticking anywhere or causing any odd visual appearance like glass protectors do. The cutouts for the camera, sensors, speaker, and home button are all perfect and precisely where they should be. In the package you receive 3 screen protectors, micro-fiber cleaning cloth, squeegie, 5 hinge stickers, rubber bands for holding the protector in place while you're applying the hinge stickers, and instruction manual. Anyone who's used the hinge method for installation in the past will tell you that there is no better way. I won't install a screen protector without doing the hinge method now, as it makes the installation fool proof and assures a perfect install. I had never used rubber bands prior to this installation, but it really helped out a lot. I got the install done perfectly the first try, as the hinge method assures everyone will, and installing in the bathroom while the shower is running hot water will keep any dust out of the air. Feel free to ask any question you have.

EDIT : A few pics added
Completely agree with everything you said. I've only had mine on for 3 days and its like it isn't even on the device.
The feeling of a glass protector is the best, but with none of those really working for the Note4, these protectors cannot be beat.
For $3.99 it's a hell of a bargain.
Do you mind posting a picture of the screen protector itself or on your phone? The picture on the product page isn't very clear.
I've had it on my Note 4 for two weeks now. I don't worry about having keys in the same pocket now. Damn near invisible with the Speck CandyShell Grip Case. I'm actually thinking about cutting one of the protectors down multiple times to make some camera lens protectors, since I ordered 2 packets at that price. I'll post here if successful.
Just installed mine last night and am happy with it.
Added a few pics. Let me know if you want to see a close-up of a specific area, specific angle, whatever. I'll take my Note 3 with me tonight, just in case any has any requests.
Thanks for posting pics. I was hoping the screen protector would extend farther than the display and up until where the glass starts to curve.

I Threw my Galaxy S6 in Water - LIFEPROOF FRE CASE REVIEW

Hello Everyone! So I got the LifeProof Fre case for my Galaxy S6 which is supposed to make your phone LifeProof by protecting it from dust,snow,water and drops.I have used this case for quite some time now and I have published a full video review for the same, which includes a drop test and a water test.
You guys can watch it here and let me know your thoughts about this case-
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWpwLM4B-p8&feature=youtu.be
Thanks for the video review!
Would you kindly provide an update to this case? I am very hesitant to order it for several reasons. I already have neo hybrid metal as protective case and spigen liquid crystal for slim daily carry. Waterproof feature of LP fre entices me, but given the price ($70 in canada), and all the issues I've been reading about keeps me from finalizing my purchase.
As an owner, any insight?
I have completely submerged my S6 (unprotected) in water twice (I know.....WTF is my problem) with absolutely no ill effects. I have now and do recommend protection for such a gem of a phone but there are better deals to be had. Go to Amazon (I swear by 'em), find something that suits you and you will be surprised at the money that can be saved. That being said put the time in reading multiple reviews as these are crucial to get a real world opinion and I think you will find your due diligence pays off in the long run. Best wishes to you.
Good review , thx
Inviato da Mountain View tramite Samsung Galaxy S6
So i pulled the trigger and bought the lifeproof fre for s6. My biggest discomfort in using this case this the fact that screenprotector is lifted from the phone screen, and it takes more effort to press on the screen. This problem is more pronounced with typing, as it won't register the touches as easily..
How are you guys doing with this, and is there a fix?
I was thinking maybe getting a glass screen protector to lessen the gap..
*Update:
I got a replacement from amazon today. The pillow effect (gap between screen protector and phone screen) is much less noticeable, and it's a pleasure to use.
I guess with lifeproof, it's hit-or-miss with their quality.
Was going to buy this case but the screen protector is not that good as it says on the review. Do we have to use the screen protector that comes with the case because I've already got my own nice screen protector. Thanks
I have 20 or so cases for the s6. They always seemed to lack something. This is by far my favorite and I've had it on for like 4 months now. I wouldn't say the screen protector is low quality as much as it's what's required for something that can't stick to the phone. I have a matte screen protector underneath and it closing the gap a bit between the screen protector on the phone and also gets rid of the Newton effect. The rainbow colored rings. You do lose a bit of the screen quality but overall it's a trade off I was willing to make. Here's a link to the screen protector I use
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00TKXE21G/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1
The one thing I do wish they would do. Or at least give it a shot is try to hybrid in a glass screen protector into the case. Might just have glass before the phone starts to get ready and then have that go into the plastic screen protector. I don't know, I just think that would be pretty cool or a screen protector designed for this case made of glass. But then you deal with the broken glass issues and that affecting the waterproofness.
Thank you for sharing
Update:
I liked the case so much that I ordered a black case for myself, in addition to a white version.
The black one had a terrible pillow effect (a gap between screen protector and phone). It made typing difficult as it requires more force to register the input. Contacted amazon, and they were out of cases.
Contacted lifeproof, paid $5 for replacement and what a breeze. They didn't hassle me to send photos of problem, nor the product shipped back to them. They sent a brand new case, and if it had the same problem, they promised to send another case for free.
The customer service rep I spoke to was wonderful, and I was delighted after the phone call.
Also, I added a 0.2mm glass screen protector under my white case (which does not have pillow effect).
And I'm happy to report that it's working great.

Looks awesome! Thanks for the review
The door for the charging port broke on mine. I will, however, consider it completely my fault. I had taken my phone off the charger when I was in my car and didn't close the door. I realized it when I had gotten out of my car and when I went to close it, the phone fell out of my hand and when it hit the pavement, it hit where the door was and it broke off.
Other than that, i've loved this case. The finger print sensor still works. My grips is that yes, the screen protector is low quality. You can feel little gaps here and there between the protector and the phone. This has caused mis-touches when typing or pressing on the the corners of the screen. On black background, I can see what looks like oil spot from where certain parts of the screen protector are touching the screen while other areas are not. It took me a while to get used to the bulkiness of the case but hey, it's a tough case. And I see people complain about how the sound is very low when this case is on. Are people really that stupid? Your phone is completely enclosed, so obviously the sound is going to be reduced. And the protector on the back side does scratch very easily. My phone is constantly going in and out of my pocket and it has caused scratches. Luckily, I don't see these on the front protector.

Not only does the case fail to do what is advertised and promised, the customer service from Lifeproof is worse. All I can say is DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT! My phone took a short 4 foot fall onto a flat surface and the screen cracked with this case on. Now, they say the case is "Drop Proof" up to 6.6 feet or 2 meters. 4 feet is shorter than that. What does LifeProof offer after their product fails to do as advertised on the packaging and marketing? A replacement case. Wow, how underwhelming. How about you refund me for the case of my cost of $80, pay for the costs of shipping the phone to Samsung for repairs $100, and pay for the replacement screen $240? That would seem more than fair since it was your case which failed to do as marketed and as advertised. But, when asked to do these simple things LifeProof only offers to send a replacement case... If you ask for a refund, they tell you they cannot and will not do this. Whatever happened to standing behind your product LifeProof? What happened to making sure a customer who has suffered damages at your failure to provide the promised advertised protections is made whole and complete? Because of their bad responses and inability to even offer a viable solution I am making sure others are not harmed by writing this review in hopes they do not suffer as I have had to.
Nice.

Question Cases and Screen Protector

Hello everyone, just got myself a S7 Tab FE and was looking around for cases. Has anyone found a nice case as well as screen protection?
Something with a screen this size im guessing it's important to keep it in a very nice sturdy shock proof case.
The problem with device is the thinness and large size. Even with a good case a drop may break the display... try to avoid doing it. Perhaps tethering the case may help.
As for screen protectors I use these on my N10+'s. The are an easy wet apply and last an average of 6 months. Even the spen doesn't bugger them up; they are self healing to a certain extent. Exhibit almost no yellowing over their lifespan.

Yes it feels awkwardly large and thin. Might try the S7 keyboard. Not sure how well it would function as a case tho.
I might check this screen protector out however on my N20 I prefer the glass screen protector rather then the film ones

Another member had a case and tempered glass protector on their's and broke the display recently.
The IQ Sheild will protect it from marring and scratches. Temper glass protector or not I would assume any sizable impact is likely to break the display.
Think about where you are and what you're doing when handling it... you know how it goes.
Lol, put away getting drunk
I bought the Tab S7 plus book cover it fits well with magnets
with a tempered glass screen protector they are here since I bought the device 3 months ago and they are fine
I put my tablet in my backpack so it's not a big deal
original book cover or keyboard cover are nice. But expensive and do not offer any more protection then some generic 15$ ones. I have one of those generic ones for home use because I need kickstand feature. Also have a spigen rugged armor, which I use while working on the filed. That one also has a sand feature but the case as such is pretty stiff so it needs more attention to use it that way. Not really cheap but certainly gives more protection then the original ones for less money.
And for screen, I don''t use any screen protectors, glass is scratch resistant enough for a while now and with screens huge as this or devices thin like this nothing really helps against cracking it. Need to be careful, that is the only thing that will help.
I went with a Poetic rubber-ish case and SuperShieldz tempered glass screen protector. The case is nice. Fits well with the screen protector, and even redirects the speakers toward your face which is awesome for watching movies or gaming.
