UAG ice
Puregear Coconut,licorice

Which clear case do you like, if you have tried these or others?

I have uag, Beetle and spigen. Uag is the best by far the supcase Beetle is okay it's a tight fit but not too much protection depends where you use your phone

Case mate. I have the naked case. It's nice but not perfect.
Case Mate Barely There Clear for minimal protection. When I'm working I switch to Case Mate Naked Tough. Honestly it's probably the best transparent case which has a good compromise between size and protection.

UAG is a solid choice. Spigen is a close second if you can deal with the scratch that has been reported in the Ultra Hybrid thread
There are already several threads for this and similar issues, but this one should be most helpful to you. Many more options than what you have listed and potential some better ones.

Hi. I was wondering if anyone had any experiences with these cases I've been looking at on eBay.

Do they fit well? Provide good protection? Do they scratch the phone? Will they work with a full body skin? Or should I just go with an Otterbox or Trident? Are there any other rugged case makers out there?
I wanted to buy several cases, but these cases aren't worth it I guess I would just buy an Otterbox or Trident case.
First 2 case are too bulky. I have the third case and I like these style of case. They fit good and not to bulky but still provide good accidental drop protection.

the third case is nice, fits well and feels as if it wuld protect the phone...in the end I went with a defender though.

Got the third one, amazing for the price! Fits great and feels ok!
I have the third case also and it fits good and has a nice texture to it. The inner case is like a tpu case and then it has a hard shell that gets put on that covers the corners and back. If you want total protection get the Otterbox but I feel this case has good protection

I have the 3rd case as well, and liked it. Since replaced with the seidio surface.
You won't be disappointed in the 3rd one.
Sent from my SPH-L900
I also have the third one. Mine is all black and I like it. I really want the seido covert case for the extended battery.
I'm looking for a new case for my Note 2 and I have been researching a bunch of options. I really like the feeling of the HTC One X+ (HTC calls it Carbon) and would prefer that feel in a case. Less rubber and more matte feel. I have seen a lot of glossy backs which offer no good slip from the hand protection for such a big phone. Another note to mention is I am not wanting a Barely there style case or anything too thick like a defender case. With that said, here is my list.
Otterbox Commuter
Aegis Trident
Seidio Surface with Kickstand (worried about the two piece wearing out)
Urban Armor Gear Navigator
Any suggestions or experience with any of these?

Take your time to read through my reviews: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192333
I wish it would be a sticky in this forum for people to find it easier...
Its actually probably better that its not a sticky. So many people just overlook those all together. Especially considering on the xda app the stickies are in a different tab.
I do however use your reviews quite frequently when looking for new accessories and will find it wherever they put it haha

I actually really like the Seidio Surface. I got one when i first got my note and I have tried other cases including the otter box commuter and with texture and bulk in my oppinion i really like the Surface.
if you want to have access to the battery and SD card slot, avoid otterbox and others that use multiple pieces. Change battery would be a hassle if you have otterbox.
Personally I bought the UAG, it offers one of the best protection, the best looking and you can swap out the battery easily.
I have the Trident and the Commuter. While I find the commuter to be adequately protected, I feel like they missed the mark on unnecessary bulk and one very slippery outer shell. The Trident on the other hand suits my needs for size and protection. I have less protection with the Trident, but it's not as bulky and better to hold. The UAG looks like my next buy, but some say it seems too wide.
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda premium
I just got my UAG Navigator last week after my first one was stolen/disappered from my mailbox, but that's a whole other story. Anyway I love this case, it's not too bulky or wide while still adding the protection I need. I'm a part-time crafter so I made my own insert cuz I wasn't really liking the ones that were included. I think you'd be very happy with the UAG case. I have the otterbox defender which is good for some situations but not everyday use for me. I also have the Trident case, I like it but the hot pink is starting to turn like a gray-blackish color on the edges which makes the case look dirty to me. Plus the tabs for the usb and earphone connections don't always go back like they're suppose to. Don't really know how to describe it, maybe someone from the forum who has one of these cases can better describe what I'm trying to say. I give the UAG case a 10+!!

I got the UAG and it works great. The left side however is a little squeaky. Very subtle so it doesn't bother me.
As the title states, which case would you choose and why out of the three of them. Looking at the slim armor but want opinions from others who have any of them.

i have the slim armor soul black and the incipio teal blue case. i dont like the camera and button cutout on the incipio. they shouldve made it tighter and not so open. i havent opened the slim armor package yet to try it on due to waiting on my tempered glass screen protector, but it is a nice looking case. also spigen makes quality products ive ordered several cases from them in the past with no disappointments. the otterbox is just too big! (thats what she said) <--- get that out of the way. at least in my opinion.
so slim armor it is!

I had the commuter with my S4 and I liked it at first then tried on the Speck Candyshell and asked why I ever got the otterbox. It seems like there arn't as many choices with the G2 vs. the S4, might be cause of the whole VZW vs. others deal. I wanted to try the slim armor the first time around and I think i'm going to pull the trigger now that you mentioned that the Incipio isn't the best.
Thanks

Have a look overhere:
Case reviews including official Samsung, tech 21, spigen, VRS, Otterbox and loads mor
I have the Spigen Neo Hybrid and their Thin Fit case, the Neo Hybrid is definitely the best case that I have seen, just don't get it in the clear version since it yellows over time, especially with wireless charging use.
I have spent so much money on cases, I bought a Piel Frama's SlimFrama case, a Noreve case, couple of Spiegen cases, and none I enjoyed using. So now up using my S7E without a case.

I bought my dad the Spigen Tough Armor case and it really does not like screen protectors. It constantly pushes it out because of how tight it is to the case.
The other, I have not much clue but I think I would recommend the Ghostek 2.0 because it does offer screen protection as well as a layer of protection to the Home Button. The home button gets scratches, which is a faulty Samsung thing. :\

Agreed. It's the only case I've tried that helps with accidental touches of the edge display during typing. It's also the only case that has tall enough side bevels that actually protect the display (with no lost functionality). Most other cases for whatever reason keep them way too low for no reason other than questionable aesthetics.
I've got the neo hybrid from spigen and I'm happy with it. It works with their screen protectors and also the BSE case fit screen protector skin.
Samsung clear cover the one that covers the back only not the flip scratch case

I got the tough armor a few days ago an its perfect. Feels great while holding and goves better grip. The neo seems slimmer but if u want good protection for accidental drops and a kickstand i recommend it.
Note the kickstand seems a bick thin and might brake easily i think but i do with out it if it ever does.
Spigen Thin Fit = the sexiest, lowest protection
Incipio & caseology = decent protection , medium bulk
UAG = max protection , max bulk & thick as a brick
Check here
I really recommend the PureGear Dualtek Pro. It's a great, safe and beautiful case.
ewww
For me it's like a crime to smash that ugly case to a such beautiful device, but if I would buy a case, it would buy just something thin so it's barely visible on the phone but protects it a bit at the same time.
Just my opinion though.
I got the Speck Dark Case for the Onyx s7 edge. Looks fantastic.

I work in construction, as well. The case I'm looking for needs to be dust and waterproof, so I researched them all. Most are not dust-tight, or waterproof, at all, but there are a couple. I reviewed two on here the other day, and that thread is down just a bit from this one.
ArmorX is what I'm using, right now. As soon as Juggernaut gets theirs out for the Note 8, I'm probably dropping the money on one... I've seen the Juggernaut cases take some serious abuse, and I'm pretty sure that whatever they come out with for the Note 8 is going to be the most protection you can get on the market.
I'm using this case: https://www.spigen.com/collections/galaxy-note-8/products/galaxy-note-8-case-rugged-crystal
It's so cute and sexy but may not be suitable with construction.

i use the unicorn beetle and can confirm it is the best. i work construction. it has flaps to keep dust out your ports but at the same time isnt super bulky
i need two cases, one rugged for outdoors and one sleek / slim for everyday use. Both should be Whitestone OK as well.

How long have you been using that case? I'm reading on Amazon that some people are saying on the first drop their screen broke with that case.
Love the UAG Monarch. I haven't dropped my phone yet (fortunately), but it feels so solid and protective while maintaining a much slimmer profile than the Otterbox.
Is the supcase unicorn pro with the screen protector have a soft or hard inner case design? Does the N8 sit on hard or soft plastic?
