I know, I know...please not another "which should I choose?" thread...I get tired of them too.With that being said, the topic pretty much tells the tale. I'll clarify for those willing to give their input: I've narrowed my choice of cases down to these two (PureGear DualTek Extreme and UAG Navigator) based on my personal preferences, but I have no experience with either company nor their products...This is where you come in. I'm not asking you to necessarily tell me which one I should choose or shouldn't choose, but I would like to hear how YOUR experience has been with either of these companies or these cases. Any and all input is welcomed!
Thanks in advance for your participation.
I had a Dualtek Extreme case for my Razr Maxx and after about a week of collecting massive pocket lint the corner bumpers started falling off. I only had the case for about 2 weeks cause after the bumpers fell off it looked really silly. (A very heavy duty case but minus bumpers you ahve gaping holes on all four corners.)
I just ordered a GS4 and am kicking around the UAG or the Spigen SlimArmor case. (Leaning more towards UAG cause I like the look and the large built in corner bumpers.)
Never tried the puregear case, but rocked the Uag case on my S3, and right now I have the black uag case for my S4 and just ordered the white one as well. Highly recommend Uag. Great protection, durable, not bulky, and their customer service is awesome. I put up a review of the uag case if you want to check it out

I ordered this:
http://www.amazon.com/Ionic-GUARDIA...qid=1369920767&sr=8-6&keywords=galaxy+s4+case
I've had it for a day now and I am really happy with it. The price is more than fair (IMO). Protection is excellent since it is a 2 stage cover (Silicon-Plastic).
The front of the device is protected meaning you can place your phone face down.
And finally it looks great.
So I'm about to pick up my Note 4 upgrading from an HTC One S in which I had a Ballistic case on. I absolutely loved this case more than anything because I had 110% confidence nothing would happen every single time I dropped my phone and I want this same security in my next case. What I loved about it was it wasn't bulky and I could still slip it in my pocket. This is what I'm looking for in my case for the Note 4. I want as good protection against drops as my Ballistic case had along with it being slim enough to fit in my pocket. Here's what I have so far, but I'm very open to new suggestions as long as that case you suggest is as strong as a ballistic that doesn't make my phone 6":

Verus [Heavy Drop Protection] Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Case [Thor]
UAG Slate
Thanks!
I would highly recommend the Tech 21 Impact Tactical. It's a real thick, quality tpu case with a textured surface finish. Has the D20 impactology around the edge of the case and a real good lip on the case to protect the screen. Cut outs are perfect, nice design, brilliant quality.
Really gives me the confidence that my phone will survive a substantial knock or drop. It is just thick enough to also stop the camera lense touching a flat surface when the phone is laying flat on a smooth surface.
I have a black one. Looks very stealthy.

I would say Spigen Tough Armor or Verus Thor.

The UAG is a great case, but it's bulky and not comfortable to hold.
Uag and never look back.

My 1st case for the Note 4 was the Versus Thor. I haven't thought about looking for another.
Verus Thor. The feel of the case on your note 4 will seal the deal. Bought UAG case...and tried several times to like it. Love how tight it fits on phone as it "snaps" on. But...I always end up swapping out with Verus case. Love the clean look of the Thor. More sleek. If I wanted bulky feel...I would just get Otterbox Defender and call it a day.
I am about to order the Nexus 6P Gold, mainly because of the price even though I am switching from a S6 Edge Gold Platinum.
I am having difficulty deciding upon a case to match the phone instead of hiding it. My first choice was the Spigen Hybrid EX but it doesn't have one currently with gold trimmings only gunmetal and silver. I am now considering the Verus gold, but I am thinking it has too much black and I am not entirely sure if the gold trimmings are the same as the phone.
Nexus 6P gold owners I would appreciate it if you all could chime in and help me out, which case do you use?
Thanks everyone.

I'm in the same boat. I decided to go with all clear cases.
Ringke Fusion
Pleson Clear Case
Spigen Ultra Hybrid
Hopefully I made the right choice.
I bought the spigen hybrid because I wanted to show off the gold back, but the case was still too slippery.
So I bought the Verus gold and in my personal opinion, its probably my most favorite case of any phone I've owned. The gold trim is pretty much the same exact color as the nexus and while it's majority black, the gold trimming and the gold fingerprint scanner showing through provide beautiful contrast. I'd highly recommend it.
You will read mixed reviews for the Evolution Lab bumper case for the 6p, but I have it on my Graphite 6p and I like it better than my Spigen clear case.

I think I am more leaning towards the Verus gold also, thanks. Do you by chance have any pictures of your phone in the Verus gold?

I actually do!
Yours actually looks better than the ones on their site ... Lol ... I like it, think that's what I am going to get. Thanks
Now here´s the deal: If you want great protection, you will need a "bulky" case ( eg. a Poetic Revolution or similar case ). If you care about the looks, you will need a clear case ( eg. Spigen Hybrid Ex, Poetic Affinity or similar ). These "slimmer" cases will offer some great protection too but chances are higher that your phone won´t survive a greater drop.
If you feel clumsy, go for a rugged case ( which is not transparent ) or else have a look at clear cases. Even the thinnest clear case is still better than no case at all

How would you rate the protection of the Verus?
I don´t own this case but from the looks of it, it could offer a similar drop protection like an Otterbox Commuter.
I'm about to put an order for a Supcase for my N6P gold.

Getting mine tomorrow can't wait
Supcase and Versa are great choices. I personally don't know why Spigen is everyone's 1st suggestion, I personally don't like their cases.
I'm looking for a simple silicone case. I find I hardly ever drop them due to their extreme non slip surface. Have had no luck so far. Ordered a J&D case off Amazon but it was your typical TPU, flexible but slick! Still on the hunt.

I got the Unicorn Beetle In all black a\on amazon for 15.99 with prime, its a sturdy slim case, i have had it on my note 5 and nexus 6 also.
My wife bought a gold Nexus 6p several weeks ago and out of all the cases I have the one that looks the best on there is the supcase clear black one. Looks so good I wish I had gotten the gold one.

Look at Speck cases
Been using the Supcase for a day. The grips feel great, not rubbery, but slip resistant, has a nice feel. The transparent pc back cover looks great with the gold case. The volume/power buttons have a responsive click feel, the cutouts do look symmetrical and well placed. For $15, I'm happy for the time being.
I have the Spigen Ultra Hybrid. I like that it doesn't really add a lot of bulk to the phone and still has enough of a lip on the front that I can lay it face down without worrying. Also it is one of the few cases that I have found that has a full cut out for the camera on the back.
stilgut leather cases are very good.
Just wondering how many cases people have for their 6p and which ones they rock on a daily basis. How many is too much ?
Have 3 at the moment but thinking of sending the neo hybrid ex back as I also have a speck candyshell grip and a supcase unicorn hybrid slim. I am thinking of picking up a leather sleeve or nice folio or perhaps a supcase pro which I had for my G3 and it kept that phone in pristine condition.

True, it feels nice naked, but I'm just so paranoid about dropping it without a case on lol. I've never been worried before as they have always been contract phones, and basically paying like £15-25 a month with your minutes and data. But this is the first one I have bought outright and simply because of the way it looks and its overall design and I actually like the camera hump at the back and think its one of the more unique looking designs out there. The fact that it is a beast in size and performance also helped sway the decision

That looks real slick with the clear case. Have you experienced any drops with the Spigen cases and if so how did they hold up?
I currently rocking 4 cases which one was came free with the phone.
Too many.
Have 3, Adopted, Candyshell, and a Pouch.

I haven't dropped the 6P yet but I dropped phones with the Spigen cases in the past and they always showed no signs of damage and they protect the phone very well. They are made to withstand impacts on the corners. They call it "air cushion technology."

I'm afraid this will be me soon lol. Looking at some handmade leather pouches which look fantastic but don't come cheap. 1 or 2 more and that's it lol
They sure do look good and if they hold up and protect the phone, then I might keep the neo hybrid. I just can't see myself using it anymore though, after having bought the candyshell, but I'll see how it goes.
If you don't mind, could you let me know what kind of pouch you're using? I looked at this one and it does look good:

There's some nice ones on etsy too
At least 5 cases, 1 dbrand, extra charger and extra type c to type c cable and a type c car charger
I only have the Spigen Rugged Armor, which I believe is one of the best cases, however my cart is full of different covers, cases, Type-C cables about to be bought!!

Yeah I thought about getting the rugged armor and may still do in the future but for the time being I have sent the neo hybrix ex back. It's a really nice case and I liked the finish on it, but the side with the button started coming loose and left a bit of a gap (which seems to be a common issue from what I've read on this forum) and simply couldn't justify paying £16 for it to start doing that after 2 weeks use. The candyshell grip is the one I am rocking on a daily basis now and I have to say is an excellent case. I hear you about the accessories and covers in the shopping basket, I will be buying a leather folio and a leather pouch and a few more cables me thinks.
i just have the Supcase slim. Id recommend this case because it protected my nexus from a 5ft drop right on its back! But im looking for a good flip case!
The name says it all. What did you get? I got the below so far, although I think I'm going to return the Spigen hybrid for the clear one.

You want good corner hit protection or it will get damaged. The clear ones don't cut it. These are heavy phones that wuv to corner hit
Been using the Zizo Bolt case on my N10+ for 2 years, zero damage. Has been dropped on concrete from 2-4 feet more times then I liked to admit. Thin, easy to hold and clean, doesn't attract dirt, and doesn't fall apart when dropped.
The screen protector on this one might be a throw away; I use Gorilla IQ Sheild which works very well. The inner case kick stand is fragile but doesn't effect the protection.

Pitaka. I like em thin
Currently have Spigen Slim armor however Spigen Tough armor arrives tomorrow. The Tough armor is what I've used on my last 3 note devices and haven't had issues with it's protection yet.
Am rotating between Spigen Thin fit and Mous case.
Going between Spigen Liquid Crystal and Liquid Air Armor. Both have the individual camera cuts. I prefer the look of the Armor, but Liquid Crystal feels like I can drop it from 4 inches as opposed to 2 inches.
I ordered the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle pro. I wanted one with a stand AND camera closure slide window so that when I'm not using my camera my fingers won't touch the lenses and smudge them, but I couldn't find one without the metal ring type stand which blocks it from being able to wireless charge. I know this because I did already pre-buy a case that had both the stand and camera window slide closure thing, but it will not pick up a wireless charge. I feel like the Beetle Pro will accept wireless charging because the stand doesn't look like it protrudes very far.
Official Samsung leather case. I can't go back from them. Got one on my S20, 21, Zfold 3 and now this. Nothing beats the comfort, durability and even the smell of leather.

Good call on th cryo armor! I just looked and it's available on Amazon now, for half of what their website says lol. Just ordered.
Found this S22 Ultra cases review. Might help to decide.
OtterBox Defender Pro with Belt clip. You can drop it on concrete or asphalt and it won't even scratch the case much less the phone. I been using the Defenders since the s7 Edge and never traded a phone in to Samsung that didn't look brand new and sratchless. The only downside is it will make your phone heavier but I can live with that. I've dropped mine on a concrete tile floor at work 3 times over the years and never even for scratched. If you keep your phone in your pocket in an office environment you can get away with slinmer cases. But if you work in a brutal environment it pays to have that extra protection.
I purchased the Samsung Black Leather Cover Case.
Precise , minimal, good quality and snug.
I would like the UAG MONARCH KEVLAR SERIES but it does not yet appear to be available in the UK and I'm hesitant to import it via the States.
Spigen Liquid Air Case , I like the look and cuts for every camera lens
I really liked Pitaka from the review.
Also considering dbrand case or Spigen Thin
Got CaseBorne S series and R series, BUT my phone is being delayed for shipping Will test but on naked view, the cases look AWESOME and with proper corner protection.
