there are many options in markets such as ebay, Amazon,... chinese sites... pick whatever you want you can get it with a texture or only colored or with a little transparency.... as you wish costs around 5 - 15$ only usually with free shipping.

I have the Diztronic and I'm pleased with it. I've bought Cruzerlite in the past too and they are also very good.
Check out the Poetic cases on Amazon as well. That's my personal favorite right now.

Good luck getting a tpu or snap on case that doesn't muffle the rear speaker. I have the diztronic one in clear, and it almost killed the volume, I can barely hear the phone ring.

I have a couple of options. I like Diztronic, Acase (extra protection) and Tudia. I made some videos on youtube, This is the acase http://youtu.be/CcmS-pvQtdM. this is the http://youtu.be/TC6krrzUjfE, this is the tudia http://youtu.be/LtIMUNYlQdA I have others but these are my favorites

I got a Cimo one ... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BLQIIM4/ref=oh_details_o08_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Quality is pretty good, however it's supposed to be clear but it looks very very white. Also thicker than my father-in-laws "official samsung thin case" that he has on his s3, but it protects the screen if you turn it over which is nice.

Check out DBA ultra cases...slim profile of a tpu paired with hard PC shell plus they come in many color combinations...the s4 prototypes are still being tested but I'm sure they'll b on par with the note 2 ultra pc's which i have...

I second that. I've had Diztronic cases in the past and they've never let me down. I like them way more than the S-Line cases.

Seidio cases

Found this awesome case for a expensive price... Does anyone saw some similar cases cheaper? For me the best about this case is the very slim design.

I do not know of any with similar design, but I can vouch for the seidio, I bought the active model, with the silicon and abs layers (on the phone right now) and it was well worth the money, I have dropped it on concrete and tarmac from shoulder height and while moving and the phone is still pristine. It is the slimmest rugged case out there. So if that is anything to go by then this case should be good and worth the money also

Thank you captaindyson for the info about the case.

Otterbox Defender Series Too Expensive ($70!)

http://www.otterbox.com/Galaxy-Note-4-Defender-Series-Case/sam2-galaxy-note-4-set,default,pd.html
Isn't this case too pricey?!
This is the only case you will ever need, guaranteed.

It is a little high. Your paying for top of the line. Port covers, holsters, lots of unique color choices and a screen protector. The case looks well made. For me note 2 I spent over 50 for my case and holster. The one I brought was good but this one looks better. I'd consider it if it had a kick stand.
The price should come down in a few months but I don't think it's really overpriced.

Or just grab a UAG case and get similar protection for half the price (and better looks).

It does have a kickstand... The Belt clip is a kickstand. If you pull it back the whole way it will snap into the kickstand position.

Do the have belt clips?

It's certainly pricier than other models but one thing they appear to have accounted for is the fingerprint scanner. It looks like the case is notched right below it. Fingerprint scan worked fine on my Note 4 until I threw the Spigen Tough Armor case on. Now I can't get a consistent swipe.

I used to have this case for the Galaxy S3. It was really sturdy but one thing I didn't like is how the TPU/rubber material eventually would not stick/pulled away from the phone and I had to keep pushing in that rubber/TPU material all the time. It was pretty pricey to have to deal with that type of problem.
When I got my Note 3, I tried a few cases and eventually stuck with the Urban Armor Gear. I kept it because it was sturdy, felt good in the hand, saw different drop tests on Youtube, and was Military drop-test certified. I kept that case and also the case with the Zero Lemon extended battery since it was sturdy, covered the ports, and looks to be able to take drops as well.

The Rubber/TPU material is something I never favored either, haha

If Otterbox fixed that issue, it would be the perfect case(although still pricey).
I would recommend the Urban Armor Gear if you haven't tried it before. The only bad thing is that it doesn't have covers for the ports, but it's still a great case. I had the white/Navigator case for the Note 3 and for the Note 4 I decided to order this one:

At first, before I ordered the UAG, there weren't many options for sturdy cases that were available, so I went with this one:

Haha, I find the Note 4 just a tad bit taller than the Note 3. Not much has been changed between both devices other than the materials and hardware inside.

For all complaining about the TPU cover stretching out on an Otterbox, you know all you have to do is take a picture of it with your info and Otterbox sends you another outer case free of charge. On my S3, I had mine and my wife's outer case, holster etc... replaced multiple times even after a year. So for $59 you paying for lifetime of support and free replacement with minimum hoop jumping.

That case does come with a holster but according to the seller does not have a kickstand unfortunately. It is the only holster case I've been able to find with headphone, mini USB & S Pen port covers. I'm waiting until the 22nd when it's available fulfilled by Amazon to see if anything else becomes available and if not I'll order it.
It is possible that case will stand up in the landscape mode when the belt clip is rotated to align with the holster clip on the side. My BodyGlove ToughSuit does that and it was not listed as a feature on Amazon when I bought it.
I've read Otterbox reviews in the past that state their cases become loose and I think their price is ridiculous.
If you can wait one of the holster/case Platinum Series Best Buy sells is made by Seidio and has a kickstand. It's the Seido convert combo. Best Buy sells it for $20 less than Seidio.

You can view it on Seidio's website for a different phone like the S5.

I got a cheap TPU case till a good one with a holster gets in stock. I'm gonna try this one have it on order. A little mad cause it said it would be in stock 10/20 now they have pushed the date on me. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00MJ...5_QL70&qid=1413735934&sr=8-13#ref=mp_s_a_1_13

Anyone heard of CIMO or CASEFORMER cases? Looks like they are coming.

So, trolling Amazon a bit I found there is a placement for cases by a company called CIMO.

Here's the stuff from CASEFORMERS, with kickstands too...

Not bad looking at all, decent reviews too. Just thought I'd share.

Can't say for certain, but I think the first time I saw their products was when I started looking for 6p.

Nice. Can't wait to see what they'll look like.

Caseformers looks nice especially with the kickstand.

What do you think about it?

Is a decent case and my phone has survived drops without mishap. Like some clear tpu cases yellowing can appear but I find soaking in Windex or a mild bleach solution helps. Besides they are only $7 on amazon so I bought a few.

VENA CASE looks excellent

Purchased the VENA clear case. I was looking for a Ringke fusion type case, I but couldn't find one so I went with this option. This is an excellent alternative. I'm very pleased. Very sturdy, fits perfectly (even with tempered glass screen protector) and it's non slippery, while maintaining a minimalist profile. This is just my personal opinion. I couldn't ask for more.
Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk

I love it as well, my only two annoyances are the scratches and fingerprint magnet, which is found on pretty much every clear/glossy case.

Is this case rigid? How large is the headphone/USB cutout for larger cables?

no, is a slim hybrid with hard plastic on the back and flexible tpu bumper as far as the cut outs go, they're pretty big i have not had any problems plugging in different cables

Where you buy from?
Im on Amazon, im seeing VskinCl and Retain models, which one did you get?
I just got the incipio octane in the mail yesterday. I guess its originally 25 but someone Herr posted a link with a code that made it 11 total so I grabbed it. People were saying they really liked it, imo its decent but nothing to go crazy about.
I was thinking about picking up something else. Had my eye on the cruzerlite bugdroid case. Then I seen this post. Not sure what to do.

Why not just link to the product you purchased?

Seems like he's talking about this one. I have one on the way. I had a similar case for the Droid Mini, and Turbo. They hold up well, and no matter how clumsy I may be, I never managed to crack a screen. Hopefully this one treats my X just as well.

Thanks...
....Thinking of ordering one, I have a cruzerlite bugdroid on the way, seen it on the 6p, it looked nice, so I ordered one for this phone.

Just ordered mine a few days ago, my only concern is the TPU turning yellowish over time so I opted for the black border, but I have a white/silver frame :/
The Incipio case has a frosted back and silicone bumper and is running at $14 on sale right now, might go for that one too

I don't really like the bugdroid on this phone. The thickness of the case, coupled with the cutouts for the buttons makes it hard for me to press the buttons sometimes. That's why I ordered the Vena case for this phone.

I'm still liking the VENA, I use it for more rough handling like outdoors or exercising... Most days at the office I prefer the PLESON tpu case, vile which is more flexible and has a slimmer profile

I've been using the hybrid case for a few months, very happy with it.

Probably the best TPU case for this phone
I posted a review/overview of the Vena VskinTPU cases on Youtube that I cant link because XDA thinks I'm a new user for some reason. I have had mine since the video was mad and alternating carrying them has kept them from yellowing at all. Just perfect TPU implementations. Not a lot of added bulk, good drop protection, and laser-accurate cutouts. They have been a real surprise.
Search 'Moto X Pure 2015 clear TPU' on Youtube to watch it.
