Just got this case.
It's completely clear and made of hard plastic. It fits really snuggly and feels good in the hand. Nice case to show off the phone without covering any part of it .

Just got one in black. Nice case but it does cover up the gunmetal to the point that it looks like any other phone. Good choice with clear.

Just got mine in clear. I really wanted a UAG but figured this would hold me until the UAG is released. I like this so much may keep it. Very think but seems to provide decent corner protection. Love that it lets you see the nice back of the M8. Really wish we could get rid of the VZ logo but think that is etched.

They say it is a hard case but it feels quite rubbery to the touch. It stretches as it is installed so I would not call this a "hard" case but that is just my opinion. It is a stiff rubber is how I'd describe it.
Anyone have the frosted clear? Curious as to how that would look compared to the regular clear case.

The Red Shield case in my original pics is a hard case. There is no stretch to it or a rubbery feel.

I have the frosted clear - don't like it with the gunmetal gray because the frost in the back covers up the color and the grain of it. May be fine with the glacial silver though. The sides are not frosted and totally clear though. When I ordered it I thought it was really clear and was disappointed when it was the frosted. I ordered the Spigen clear case, but that won't come til mid-April so will keep using this one until then.
Looking for a clear case to show off the phone. Will check it out

Anyone tried other good alternative clear cases out there, TPU or hard plastic?

Question
I am interested in buying this case but I don't like cases that stick to my pocket while pulling them out. Does this matte case have any problems?
I notice that there is a line/indentation around the back of the case - does this trap dirt/lint? I am wondering why they placed it there in the first place.
Thanks.

It goes in and out of my jeans pockets with no issues. If you wear skinny jeans, then I can't help you. It is remarkable to me how little dirt/lint stick to this thing. It is made of hard but flexible rubber, I haven't found anything sticking to it. Keep in mind, its a barely bigger than the phone and it does push up my screen protector in the lower left hand corner. My Spigen case didn't do that, but it made the phone feel huge to me.
Thanks!
Thanks for the info. What kind of screen protector do you have? I have purchased Invisible Defender (screen protector) and diztronic case. Hopefully they wont cause huge problems.

It's just a cheap clear one from Amazon. This case really hugs the screen, it adds almost no width at all. Its not really noticeable unless I look for it, I wouldn't think you'll have huge problems.

Spigen cases always seem to add unnecessary bulk, especially width to phones with their cases. And their colored plastic backs scratch and swirl like crazy.
They are extremely overrated and overpriced imo.

Can someone test something out on this case for me?
Are you able to stick 1 Credit Card and 1 photo ID on the inside of the back of the case? Will the case stay on and clip to the phone?
I am doing just that on my current phones case and would like to know what cases I can replicate this on.

Amazon just emailed me, my Verizon Diztronic Matte TPU case just shipped. Should be here by this Saturday or next Monday.
That lip on the back seems like a weird design choice... i have loved diztronic cases in the past, so I'm sure i'll order this.

Got one for my and the wifes phone....she prefers my Ballistic case (go figure) but the Diztronic is excellent and not bulky.
I might try the Incipio DualPro to see how it compares to the Ballistic.

For everyone wanting to get a screen protector that fits with this case, the Supershieldz screen protector from Amazon doesn't get in the way of the case if installed well (AT&T version).
So as it turns out I'm actually allergic to the metal on the edge of the phone. Which means I can't hold onto it. Which means I need a case. So I'd like as little case as possible. If I could just get a rubber bumper to wrap around the edge and nothing else, that would be ideal.
So what's the most minimal non-metal case it's possible to get, that will cover up the metal edges? Any suggestions?
I have the Spigen air capsule. It's a really thin clear case, good quality as well. Barely feels as if there's a case on my phone..
Official Samsung case is like a bumper but but covers the back. It doesn't cover the sides but it's probably the thinnest case for the S6 Edge. I got mine at T-Mobile for cost $20. If you resister your phone on Samsung you get 30% off but I think it was a little more then what I paid.
I have the Spigen air case too. I don't normally do cases but I really like this one

I'd recommend the Ringke Fusion. Thin, transparent and covers the aluminium.
Bought it for around 10 Euros.

I'd recommend the " Spigen" range their cases, I have found to be the best but not sure if they do bumper cases.

This looks to be a bumper case. http://www.amzer.com/Amzer-Border-Case-White-P97640.htm
I have the Spigen Case
I have the spiggen crystal clear with air cushion. Is feels nice. And looks nice. Although think I'll find a better back protector the one they give have with the case is too small and visable.
I don't see any "air capsule" model listed on the Spigen pages. Actually, none of the cases has "air" in its name at all. The closest I can find is a case for the regular S6 that has the word "capsule" in its name, but it doesn't sound like what people are talking about. What is the official Spigen name for the model?
I don't know if you would be allergic to this metal or not, but the aluminum bumper that someone linked to previously feels very nice on mine.

For the record I have the Spigen Ultra Hybrid in the Metal Slate color and it does cover all of the metal sides (unless you poke a finger into the holes in the bottom for the ports). It has a clear back, but I'm finding that the clear back is much more smudgy than the pictures on the web site (and I have installed their "anti-smudge" back film, but it doesn't seem to solve the issue).

It's the Aluminum bumper on amazon by NeWisdom. There are similar aluminum bumpers by other company's on Amazon and i assume they're all the same.
It's got a fair amount of grip... it's a matte finish metal so it's not super grippy. I get a good amount of slip reduction from the matte DBrand skin though.

This is the i-Blason Clear Halo series. I contacted them and they sent a new one out fairly quickly with the same results (the little grey/black dots). I think it's where the peaks of the diamond pattern are pressing into the TPU. Maybe the hybrid style doesn't have this effect with a hard back and TPU corners? I actually love the case, but but it makes my phone look dirty.
Yup. I got a clear case from Best Buy and returned it as soon as I got a black one from Amazon. I hate hiding what I think is a nice battery cover (white), but the bubbling or whatever just makes it look cheap with a clear case.
Is the back of that i-Blason Halo case polycarbonate or TPU?

It's *not* TPU. I was hoping maybe someone had either a hybrid or full poly clear case that could say whether that eliminates the effect. Or maybe even a different TPU that's a little harder? Don't want to end up with a bunch of worthless cases.
Edit: I'm a big fat liar. The halo is a hybrid, so TPU side and PC back. Crap...

I have the Spigen Ultra Hybrid which has TPU sides and a clear polycarbonate back. While I don't have the white ceramic back, this case shouldn't press into it and cause the issue that you have with your current case.

It is. Not as hard as I'd expect though which I think is why I had in my mind that it was TPU. It's definitely not flexible like TPU and I can see where they've bonded them together. I was ready to order the Spigen and stopped when I realized I had ordered a hybrid. I don't want the same thing to happen. I'm waiting to hear back from iblason. They asked me to send them more pictures. The amazon product page definitely doesn't show the effect but who knows. They could have photoshopped them.
I got the spigen hybrid in over the weekend. It has two polka dots but far less noticable effect than the i-blason. If I end up taking a picture I'll post it up, but I'll be keeping it on there. That said, i-blason CS was great. They sent me out the replacement and ended up refunding my money. Both Spigen and Iblason seem the same quality wise. Not sure why the one shows more than the other. If I had to guess the shape of the back of the Spigen is probably more generous and/or closer to the correct curve so it doesn't have as much pressure to push into the case.

Damn, turns out my clear case also creates polka dots.. even though I don't see any on the metallic silver backing.
Overview of Four Cases (Spigen Thin Fit, Diztronic TPU, Ringke SLIM Clear & Black)

Diztronic Full Matte Flexible TPU - Somewhat thin while probably offering the best coverage out of the ones I am listing. I feel like they could have closed the s-pen cut out completely
Ringke SLIM Clear & Black - My favourite case out of the ones I have. The clear one however is fairly slippery, probably about as slippery or more as carrying the phone naked. The black one however is grippy and looks very sleek almost like the phone doesn't even have a case on it.

Rinke is what i have. the clear or smoked one allows you to add something to the back and it's very nice looking. i don't know why someone would spend all this money on a phone and put something ugly like a uag case on it. anyway, here's what it looks like:
I just ordered the Rearth Slim in black. Always liked very minimal cases, that keep the slim profile of the phone, but cover it in case of scratches and minor dings from little drops.
Only thing I don't like about the clear Ringke case is that I feel like it attracts fingerprints like crazy, also gets a bit slippery from what I can only guess is your finger oils. Wanna try out the black one from what the OP stated its provides more grip. Overall like the form factor of the case, very slim.
I currently have the black Tech 21 case I got at T-Mobile, and it's nice and protective, but is a bit thick and beefy for my taste.
I hope the Rearth Slim is thinner and less bulky.
Holy crap this case is AWESOME
Galaxy Note 5 Case, Ringke SLIM
http://www.amazon.com/Ringke-Essent...1442611872&sr=1-1&keywords=note+5+slim+ringke
Wow, just wow. I have never liked a case so much. This thing fits like a frigging glove, very tight close fit, and is almost like a thick skin as opposed to a case.
Yeah this won't save the phone from big drops, but it does prevent dings and scratches, and feels much better in the hand nice rubbery grippy feel, than the naked slippery phone.
Looks nice... I would consider it
I've been rocking the black ringke slim on my GS5 for over a year and it definitely has saved my phone from many drops (phone is spotless). Also my brother is using one on his GS6 edge and it saved his phone from a bad drop recently.

http://www.amazon.com/Ringke-Essent...1442611872&sr=1-1&keywords=note+5+slim+ringke
Wow, just wow. I have never liked a case so much. This thing fits like a frigging glove, very tight close fit, and is almost like a thick skin as opposed to a case.
Yeah this won't save the phone from big drops, but it does prevent dings and scratches, and feels much better in the hand nice rubbery grippy feel, than the naked slippery phone.

Got crystal but way too slippery. Keeps sliding out of my pocket, etc..
Big thumbs up on the ringke slim. Even though it's slim it just saved my phone big time. 4 foot drop onto travertine tile kitchen floor and phone is still flawless. My heart stopped and i thought phone was definitely gonna be shattered. Case got a little dent in the corner so it took one for the team. Still fits fine though.

So the black one is not slippery and the clear one is?

Rinke is what i have. the clear or smoked one allows you to add something to the back and it's very nice looking. i don't know why someone would spend all this money on a phone and put something ugly like a uag case on it. anyway, here's what it looks like:

Yeah. It's weird. You may as well get some other device if you're just going to keep it inside the case equivalent of a tank. I went to a Samsung shop recently and the first thing the sales guy tried to sell me was a huge UAG case.
... and it was ugly as hell -- but you know, the guy who was trying to sell it to me looked like he couldn't afford a Note5 himself and was just trying to sell me the SKU that cost the most.

That's my understanding. Just don't like the plain look of the black one. Clear one is great but too slippery.

Correct. Clear one is ridiculously slipper. Black is grippy.
I have the Ringke SLIM in black, and it's awesome. I was skeptical when I ordered it, but was instantly pleased once I snapped it on. If you're looking for a case that offers protection and improved grip, but don't want to add any bulk to your phone, just get the Ringke SLIM. Don't even think twice about it.
I received the Fusion Bumper Case today and I gotta say after a days use I am delighted with it, I've got it on with the 2.5D Screen Protector and it works no problem. I actually like this more than the Grip-Pro I got the other day, purely because it allows me to show off my phone whilst keeping it protected! Here are some pictures:

Also threw together a quick and dirty YouTube clip with the Case in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIsXJV0DDnc It's terrible and I'd advise you to mute the video, with a little more time I could have produced something a little more professional!

I also want to order this case but is it really thick if you compare it to simple TPU clear case i.e. Ozrly FlexiCase?

It's definitely thicker,, but not by a huge margin. I actually prefer the feel of the Fusion to the normal TPU Orzly FlexiCase. Here are some pictures for comparison:

Damn. If only I had known about the little feet it has. The photos on the Amazon listing show that the back is completely smooth and uniform

I agree with you...i was expecting a little feet but not in that way...i'm considering if i can ask a refund...at this point i will keep the Orzly Flexicase until the Ringke Fusion...however i haven't the case yet then i will wait!

The little feet are probably there to keep it from scratching.

The case looks nice. Is the TPU or silicone around the volume buttons stiff or soft? Stiffer material makes it feel like it is more protective.

Thought I'd pop back on this thread and just put a link up to a OnePlus 3 YouTube playlist I've set up for all the accessories I've had:

Will the thick TPU sides of the fusion bumper turn yellow over time? Because it's already hazy and murky in brand new condition. and you can easily notice the difference in clarity between the TPU sides and Polycarbonate back.

Hi, I have a silicon case and my past experience has been that such cases eventually form a yellow tint.
So will that yellow tint be visible on this case as well?
Or are Orzly cases immune to that? Would be disappointed if after paying a premium amount, I get the same quality.
No Orzly users here? :l
Need to buy a case ASAP, bump.

I have an Orzly flexi case and no, they're not immune to the yellowing effect. In fact, if you turn on the torchlight, the whole case would illuminate in a golden yellow colour.
If you want a transparent case, I'd recommend a hybrid case like the Ringke Fusion. The polycarbonate back would be immune to yellowing and you can choose tinted TPU on the sides, since clear TPU yellows gradually.

Ah, thank you. I'll find a Ringke through aliexpress, since they officially aren't available in India, yet.
Moreover had a Ringke fusion for my OPO long back, still transparent as the first day, no yellow tint there indeed. :good:
