Looking at the various battery cases (around 5000mah not 10k) I noticed there is protection but from the side view it doesn't extend past the screen profile should it fall to the floor on the screen. The screen by the pics still protrudes
Anyone know of a battery case that extends a bit past the screen for protection from falls on it? Cheers

Because I have thus far been unimpressed with my S4's battery life, I have been thinking about getting the Zero Lemon 7500mAH extended battery. I see that it comes with a TPU case, which is clearly necessary given the dimensions of the additional battery. Now, if I am looking at it correctly, this leaves the screen unprotected, which is what is making me seriously consider getting the Spigen Glas.tr for it as well. But, before I drop $75, I want to make sure that I am not missing something, and that the design of the extended batter case is such that a standalone screen protector is still viable.

I'm not sure there is enough room for a tempered glass solution between the case lip and the actual screen. Thin film yes, I have a regular cheapo screen protector.
Someone else might have installed that but I don't see a 0.5 mm potential space and the case kind of snaps onto the phone as the lips come over the screen itself.
Believe it or not, I drop my S4 a lot since the back battery cover is very slippery IMO. I added a case on top of the battery cover but it adds a lot of bulk and takes away from the beauty of the S4. Are there any back battery covers that are slim and non-slip? Perhaps even curved like the S3 back so it fits better in my hand and will not slip out?
I just put on a Phantom Skinz Chromatics on my back and sides. The Chromatics texture is a huge improvement over the slippery stock back, and as a skin there is virtually no difference in size. Downside is the Chromatics is expensive ($30US) and the screen protector sucks...makes everything blurry. Planning on replacing screen protector soon.

Had the original transparent case from Honor from day one on my Honor 8 Sapphire Blue with a glass protection on screen.
I ordered the GKK Ultrathin Matte Bumper Protection Case in blue off ebay could it came within 3 weeks from China something like €2.30 free shipping.
It's a 3 part case where the top and bottom parts cover once on cover up to the screens board line and the mid section the main bulk of the phone. The top and bottom covers have two each locking tabs (push fit) into theid section of the case.
One on its a nice tight fit around the device and lays flat on the screen No Gaps.. All punched holes are spot on, camera's sensor, jack plug, speaker, mac's fingerprint sensor and charger port. Must say the light sensor cut-out is over sized for some reason not round but oblong with top and bottom being curved. The volume and power buttons all make a positive travel with a soft soft click sound when pressed.
The mid section of the case once on hugs the phone nicely and meets up with the top of the phones frame edge and not curved round over to met the screen.
Having said that the case feels good in the hand nonslip does not make the phone look bigger or feels heavier.
I left my armoured screen glasses protection on when fitting this case NOTE if you choose to leave an armoured screen protection due to the thickness of the armoured glass you will need to offer up basically take you time and make sure the top and bottom of the case when fitting is over the armoured protect and push down slowly to met up with the mid section.
Reason being if you just went and try and put the cover or or force the cover on you'll have a high rate of the armour cracking, breaking..
The other option would be to use a protection film on the screen and one could just push fit the cover section in place without worrying about any damage.
Like the phone itself the bumper case is a fingerprint magnet but it's an around good protection to the body of the phone and still use the phone as if there was no phone case on it..
Is it worth it? Yes
Can you fit case if device has a armoured glass protection? Yes but be very careful take you time very tight fit.
Would I recommend others to buy it? Yes
Doesn't seem to move or slip off a flat surface while it vibrates on calls..
looks nice, would have chose a different colour tho
It looks like a hassle....i just need a strong back case and a tempered glass that covers the whole screen.....i got the cover all right but finding the tempered glass is a bit of a hassle the Terapin ones i got did not covered the whole screen it has like 0.5 cm space from each side

It's not snap fit all in a few seconds without an armoured screen protection otherwise one needs to take care if fitting over an armoured screen protection.. All in all it's a well made and designed case..
There is a similar case where it protects the rear and sides leaving you to put a screen protection on at ease..

Sorry cause i don't understand...does this full armor case has a glass that protects the actually screen or does it just cover the whole phone except for the screen?
Also if you already have a tempered glass on your phone do you need to remove it? or you can apply the case without any issues?
It just covers the phone the screen is exposed no protection..
My phone already had a armoured screen protection on it and l carefully put the top and bottoms of this case over it..
How does the case feel in the hand? And do you have trouble whit the screen, knowing it covers the phone exept the screen
I have an Incipio clear case on right now. It makes my glass screen protector pop off. So that's off for now.
I'm on my second PH-1 after a very minor fall cracked the screen on my first. (It was naked) But I had dropped it a couple of times.
Here's the thing, the back and sides were completely unscathed. The screen chipped a tiny bit on the corner on the first fall and then cracked across it with some shattering in the corner on another (from about a 1.5' fall from pocket to concrete when I was sitting on a bench).
With just a glass screen protector, you can hardly even tell it's on there (aka the phone still looks great). It also seems like with a good positioning, the SP or the plastic surround would make the first contact on any fall (given a relatively flat surface with no protrusions), thus protecting the screen. Aesthetically, I would love to get away with just the SP. I don't like casing this phone.
On the other hand, most cases are designed to also make first contact on a fall via a lip around the screen, etc. (The point of conflict with the SPs). So it would seem that a case alone should provide protection against screen shattering in most mundane falls also (again, barring protrusions).
So, what is your experience? Does anyone go screen protector only? Or case only? Have you had a screen break with either?
I have the incipio as well and go without a screen protector. I also have a belt holster to protect the phone from falling out my pocket. I am very anal with phones and have not dropped this one or my prior Android phones (I've dropped my Lumia 920 once but that just had a dent in the plastic housing). I've seen that video in which somebody tested the PH-1 with falls from different heights and know that the first thing that will break on it will be the screen under the right conditions. The rest of the phone is rock solid. That might be one problem that leads to cracks when it falls onto the corners (no dampening and direct energy transfer to the glass). I don't think a screen protector will do much in that case either.
that's my experience.
I'm totally enjoying this phone
cheers
I've just been using a screen protector and fitBAG leather sleeve. The Halo Gray has soft touch texture on the ceramic which makes it easier to grips than the shiny colors.

Any suggestion for a case with raised side lips to actually protect the screen?
Speaking from personal experience,all cases out there are pretty useless for facedown drop screen protection(UAG,Otterbox,Supcase included).I found only one with side raised lips. Temdan case.Any other similar case?
The Zizo Bolt series. Excellent drop protection.
That's all I use on my N10+'s.
I've used Ringke Fusion cases on my last two Samsung phones and they are great. Good Protection, raised edge so the screen nor the camera lenses will rest on a flat surface.

I like clear cases to show off the really nice but slippery phone.
I have found that a lot of the cases that advertise screen protection like you want have the raised bezel on the top and bottom. But the sides are not raised. This does hold the screen off a table if put face down, but it does not offer even slight protection from bumping the side edges of the curved screen.

The Bolt does. These are tough cases.
The kickstand on the phone case tends to break with use but it's the only case I'll use on my N10+'s. Zero damage in over 2.5 years with multiple 2-4 foot drops onto concrete.

I had the Ottebox Defender Pro for the S20U. I also got it again for the S22U. The reason being it offers excellent drop protection. I have never seen a phone fall from any height and land screen down completely flat. It will hit one side or top or bottom first before resting flat.
Anyway the s20U had two mishaps where I knocked or dropped the phone accidentally onto the concrete kitchen floor at work. The s22U has hit the floor once so far. In all three cases there were no scratches or damage to the phone. Hell the case didn't even get scratched, knicked or sliced. I also don't use a screen protector. So that is testimony to the quality of the Product. I work in the Restaurant and Catering business which is a punishing environment. All the phones I have had in the past with Otter Box cases (Commuter and Defender) got traded-in to Samsung in pristine condition. The only negative about the Defender Pro is it will add some heft to your phone. But it's worth it to me.
