Samsung Clear Case, anyone tried? - Galaxy S6 Edge Accessories

Hi,
has anyone tried the Samsung Clear case for the Edge? It's the bumper case style case from Samsung. Not the clear view.
http://www.samsung.com/global/galax...es/accessories_galaxy-s6-edge_clear-cover.jpg
I really like the design but i am wondering how much it protects the phone? Is it good enough? Will your phone be safe if you drop it?

I tried, I don't advice to get one because of its price and it doesn't protect nothing if the phone falls only if hit the corners other then that the phone is naked. It's only good to protect the camera if you put on top of the table, and the other thing is because our phone is glass when you put this case you will have bubbles beneath, between the back of the phone and the case. Not well made this. It's beautiful other then that isn't good.

Have it, love it, never drop tested it.
But I have bumped it a few times on the corners (and back) and no scratch or damage at all.
Unlike the guy above that doesn't use it, mine does not have bubbles between the back glass and the case.

You cant actually say that case is protective because its not, let me show you mine so everybody can see that im not lying.
and you can see the difference from another one i have Ringke Slim that has no bubbles.
Its not my first phone or my first case you know

I Don´t Recomend It
I have it, looks awesome, and I never had the feeling of normal cases where I want to take them off all the time, but I dropped it from 30cm and the thing looks awful and has like a kind of crack on the corner, so if I get to drop it at normal height (around 1m) I´m not sure if it will protect anything.
I recomend the spigen Neo Hybrid it's the best match for the s6 edge but here in Mexico they only sell the clear case.

I have one & have been using it ever since I've had my S6E since launch day. I love it b/c it allows me to place the phone on its front or back without touching the phone on the surface, it's very light, shows off the looks of the phone, and makes the phone look cool. I had 2 aluminum bumper cases & one hard clear TPU case but I sold them b/c I like the Samsung clear view case much better.
I'm planning to purchase a Ringke Fusion smoke clear TPU case, however. Not as a replacement but as an addition.

Blame it on user (marco) error. Mine has zero bubbles. Perfect and easy.

I think i might get one. So far its the only one i saw that doesnt make the phone look ugly.

Don't. It scratches so easily when I was not even using it.
Here is the story: Got it free when I bought the edge on launch date. Used it a bit but I'm one of those guys who likes the phone naked. Kept it on a place where it won't get moved or touched. Some days I carry it around without the phone just in case. After a few weeks and I try to put it back on, so many scratches that it's so dirty looking. I didn't even freaking use it. >.>

im strugling to find a good case that protects well enough but doesnt look like crap.

I don't like it

I got this case for free with the pre-order for my phone.
Having used it as well as a Spigen Ultra Hybrid case and a UAG case, the bottom line is that it provides the least protection, but shows off the look of the phone the best. It is absolutely useless if you are the type to drop your phone often, or like to throw it around. I would very much recommend the UAG case for that. However, it excels at preserving the look of the phone, and is, in my opinion, the best case for the phone if you just want something to cover the rear and prevent scratches when placing it on a surface, and preventing scratches from minor bumps to the corners of the phone.
It should be noted that being a first party product, it is quite expensive. Overall, I would give it 10/10 for looks, 2/10 for protection, and 6/10 for value (I would give it a lower score for value since it offers so little protection or features, but so far its the only case I found which actually manages to keep the phone looking as good as it does naked).

I'm using one, got it free with a wireless charger. Loving it, feels invisible and removes that slippery feeling the back of the phone has.

How can I be blame? I'm simply giving my opinion and a lot of users agree that's is to expensive for the quality, I use a ton of cases and never got any problems with them, other then bubbles this one gets dirty and fingerprints all over in a few hours. But maybe it's only mine that's a fingerprint magnet [emoji4] [emoji6]

So what is the purpose of this case? Everyone seems to say it wont protect your phone from a fall but i thought that was the whole purpose. From what i see in the images, the case raises above the phone's level so the case should hit the ground before the phone for every side unless the ground is very uneven. Just like the first bumper case for the Iphone, it seemed to only protect the sides but the fact that it added a couple of mm between the phone and the ground really made it work. I dropped my iphone a bunch of times and it never actually touched the screen or back.
Can anyone confirmmy theory or did Samsung just fail with this case?
My gf wanted the Kate Spade case for her S6 Edge. While it does look like very good protection, the fact that the buttons become difficult to press seems like a deal breaker

I have it and I did not use for even a single day. Because its very slippery in the hand and does not protect the sides of the phone. But I agree that it looks beautiful but would definitely not recommend it at all.

I've had it for a month until I got my hands on incipio. This case is much better. With the clear case it scratches very easily.

Original HTC Desire HD Leather Case
Hi there,
when I got my NS i went to the nearby Electronics Shop and tried the cases they had. The Original HTC Desire HD leather Case fits very well...
do you have the i9020 or i9023? Any type of case you have in mind?

The Incipio Feather Case is nice. It doesnt add much bulk, but still protects well.
Why not get a good screen protector and then run without a case. When the battery door gets to the point that its no longer attractive or you want to sell the phone buy a new battery door cover. A new battery door will cost you $7-$12 on eBay.
My Nexus has survived wars and it still looks good w/o a case. Like ^ this guy said, screen protector would suffice. I hate that extra bulk in my pocket.
I've got the trident aegis black-on-black for my NS4G (which I've had since last august) and think it's great. I had never been a "case" guy, and always kept my phones bare, but this phone was just waaaaaay too slippery. The smooth plastic back is one of the worst features of this phone and makes it really hard to hold on to if you're constantly juggling stuff in your hands and on the move. I dropped it a bunch of times in the first few days I had it before I just caved and ordered this case.
It's a two-piece case with a silicone full body case that covers the whole phone, and then a hard plastic outer shell that kind of clamps around the silicone.
The silicone part is supposed to absorb shock when you drop it, I guess. It has tabs that cover the headphone and usb ports, cutouts that are perfect for the camera and speaker, and mic, and is a bit thicker on the corners, which gives me some confidence and makes me think that they thought the design through well. I've dropped it a bunch, and watched my 1.5yr old son throw it to the ground, and no probs.
The plastic part wraps around that and is supposed to be good at reducing risk of damage during "crushing" impact. All I can say is that I actually shut my car's trunk on this phone accidentally and it was absolutely fine. It gives it gives it a sleeker feel and minimizes the "ruberry-ness", too.
It also comes with a clear screen protector that is fine, and I don't even notice. Since the screen is curved most people complain about the fact that screen protectors don't stick well on the edges, which is true, but the lip of the silicone case on the front covers this area, so you don't even notice it. I also don't notice a difference when using the touchscreen.
The silicone part does collect lint, so if you're OCD about that, it'll be annoying, but the protection makes it totally worth it for me. I'll gladly pay $30 for a rock solid case that collects a little lint rather than get insurance at $7.99 x 24 months = $192 over the contract. The one thing that's important to know if you use multiple batteries like I do, is that you have to put the silicon section into the hard plastic section first, pop all the buttons out of their holes on the hard plastic case, and then push the phone into the case. If you try to put the rubber part on the phone first, and then put the hard plastic on, the fit is so tight, it's tough to get the buttons to pop out. It was pretty frustrating before I figured this out, but now it only takes me a few seconds to do a battery swap. Finally, the case does add some bulk to the phone, but I personally don't think it's all that bad. The phone feels more solid in my hand and is much less slippery.
I've been meaning to write a review for this phone in the proper thread, but I don't like to review stuff unless I've really used it. So I pretty much forgot till I saw this post. Maybe I'll go link to this post in that thread too, but if you want pics, I remember seeing them in that thread, and in threads over on androidcentral or androidforums or something. Good luck with the case search.
I grabbed the Ballistic case for my Nexus. It's pretty rugged, stays on very well, and comes off easily when you want it too. Feels very solid in your hands.

My case trials........

For the verizon model.
First I tried the Incipio Feather. LOVED it. The slim profile, the rubbery grip, the clean look. But, it didn't offer enough protection around the ends or screen edges for me.
Cheapie on ebay as seen here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/for-LG-G2-V...DA_Cases&var=580258822391&hash=item4179df7db7 This one was actually surprisingly nice and one I'd used for the past 3 weeks. But....the white discolored insanely fast, it turned orange from just skin oils and such. Plus getting the top piece off if you need to remove the phone for some reason is nearly impossible without cracking it.
Enter the Incipio Dual Pro. Ding ding ding we have a winner. This thing is perfect IMO. Just enough rubber liner to cover the entire phone, and the combination around the edge of the phone screen is thin and not bulky yet plenty to offer great protection. Really really great case IMO. Think I'm done searching at this point.
Thanks! I just ordered the incipio dual pro. I was using the quick window case but I slowly began to dislike it.

Do a face drop test and let me know how it turns out. Dropped mine a few times and phone is perfect in my ballistic sg maxx. I wanted another case, one for work and one for outtings. Does it come with a holster?

The AT&T version of the DualPro is rather thin: I wouldn't have felt comfortable dropping it in that case - it didn't feel much more substantial than the Feather. nor does it have much lip to protect the front. And the AT&T one didn't come with a holster; I don't see one listed on the Incipio site for the Verizon version, so I feel confident saying that it doesn't.
Not going to drop it on it's face for no good reason. Anything can happen and I'd rather not take that risk intentionally.
The lip is rather thin, the case isn't that thick, but I don't plan to be dropping it off a balcony either. I wanted a slim profile but full coverage case for the short drops, bumps and scrapes protection. If I was truly worried about a LONG drop with screen shattering potential, then I'd definitely have considered a larger case for sure. But for my needs, the DualPro was perfect.
And it's definitely a verizon version.

I have owned both the case and phone for about 2 months. Got the case for the same reasons as Fastbird. I can also confirms the cases durability.Used by 3, 5, and 9 yo and a clumsy owner. It has been dropped on tile, hardwood, concrete including face down and both case and phone are holding up with not scratches or damage.
Great case but don't get the white one... It will turn orange just like your other one!

Nope, got black/black. Going to eventually Di-Noc in white the hard piece and see if I can wrap it tight enough around the edges to not cause installation issues, but fine with the dual black right now.
Well, mine just got a face down drop on to the wood floor from about 3 feet up, courtesy of my son who knocked if off the shelf I had it on. It's fine I'm happy to report!
Ok, for those of you who wanted a drop test, my phone got one today. From about 7 feet off the ground. I was at work at my plant, had my phone on top of my lunch bag on top of a large metal computer station next to our break area. Someone called me and the phone vibrated it's way down the bag and off the top of the work station, and according to a co-worker who was sitting there, it smacked off the corner of the keyboard drawer that was open on the way down.
I figured it fell when I walked up and saw my lunch bag half flat (it was empty, one of those soft cooler bags), and I feared the worst because it was straight down to cement.
Both the phone and Incipio Dual Pro case are absolutely unscathed. I'm sold.
so i got the Incipio hybrid one, the one you guys are talking about it, and it fell on its face.. noo problem.
i love the case but it fell off from my desk the other day and it cracked from a corner towards the buttons
honestly that's all that was, hope it'll take more accidental beatings and survive.
i really dig the case regardless.. just don't chuck it.
May I make a suggestion I hate plastic or Rubber and I love Leather and glass. For work I need to look great (I need to look money lol) and I found this company Verus from South Korea and then I found they had cases on eBay. Pros: all leather, Holds my ID and Credit Card and very well made, like VERY well made. Cons: took 3 weeks to get it.
Anyway I bought the Black and red leather one to match my watch and bought a black tempered glass screen protector they look Awesome

Hey can you post a photo or two of the Verus case that you got?
I was looking at ordering it, but was not sure if the edges came up to protect the screen if the screen is flat on a table?
thank you

Cheap case?

Hello has anyone managed to find a cheap case. Am not after anything flashy. Just need something that can protect the camera when placed on the surface, table etc. If you have found something please share.

and use this code for 1$ phone case.

Have no idea what price would be the one for you ? $1, $5 or less than $10 ? Anyway, S6 edge is a high-end device and it's no good to have it protected with a $1 which seems cheap and poor, no sense at all..
http://www.ebay.com/itm/201368426957?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT $2 ( clear view, cheap, get the job done)
http://www.ebay.com/itm/251865009225?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT $12 ( better protection)
diztronic makes a great case. been using for years and provides great drop protection and also allows use of headphone jack without removing case.
I just bought this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00V44OZ6G?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=od_aui_detailpages00
So I have been using the case I mentioned above for a few days and I am happy to report that this is a great case. It feels solid. Once I put the phone in the phone stays and doesn't move. Edges are easily accessible and the phone wont slip out of your hands. Overall the case feels very nice. I am not sure about actual protection, but thevmain point was to get something so the phone would be less slippery. So far the case does what its supposed to do.
Is this one cheap enough? http://www.amazon.com/S6-Edge-Case-Galaxy-Designed/dp/B016BSC2EQ
Bought this one for under a dollar
Love the protection that is also on the edges of the camera. Still using it since july 2015
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hot-Soft-Si...967985?hash=item4aef18ecb1:g:yhEAAOSwMmBV1X8O
I'm using the Hama Crystal Cover.
The phone fitts better in my hand (more grip).
S6 Edge awesome case.
Just wanted to put this out there. I have a unicorn beetle case for my edge. I am a dropper. I've dropped my phone a thousand times. My phone bounces when I drop it. The edges of the case stick out farther than the screen and camera, and is rubbery, so it bounces, and the glass parts never touch the floor. It will only break if it lands on something sticking up, or hits a corner, or something like that. I've tried not to drop it, but I drop everything all the time and it's really aggravating! Get so angry at myself. Point is, I figured that I'm 41, so I should adjust to my clutsy self. I'm gonna drop stuff forever apparently. I paid around $25.00 for it, but it's great protection for this pricey phone. Kinda resembles an otter box. Doesn't block the edge screen either.
try this
I m using this one.

LUVVITT Clear Grip (Case Review)

I don't know if this case has been reviewed yet or not but I just got it today. I had to find a case quick and it needed to be cheap since I don't know if I'll be getting the HTC 10 or LG G5. It also needed to be available for same day Amazon shipping since I couldn't go another day without a case. Don't get me wrong, I would have loved to use this phone without a case but it's design makes it a little difficult for me. My palm is always touching the screen which causes some minor issues but my biggest complaint is while playing a game such as Trials Frontier. When playing a game like this, it starts to become uncomfortable after just 5 minutes of play. It's most likely due to the phones thin edges which are rounded but still sharp when holding it horizontally.
Anyway, this case fixed all of my issues. It still keeps the phone very thing but it provides just enough thickness to the edges to make the phone feel more comfortable when using. The case itself feels well made but I suppose there isn't much to screw up with a TPU case. All of the cutouts match up and the buttons stay very crisp. The case provides a nice grip without providing to much grip to where it becomes an issue sliding your phone in and out of your pockets. The actual fit of the case is very snug but it's still easy to remove. I suppose if you keep on removing it and installing it, there is a possibility it could become loose.
In regards to protection it's not going to work any miracles but I'm sure it would provide some kind of protection during drops. It's a super thin case that has the corners slightly raised. They are raised just enough to keep the display off of a hard surface if the phone falls face down or if you like keeping your phone face down on the table. These raised corners however only slightly sit above the front glass so dropping it on an uneven surface such as asphalt could have dire consequences. The back is no problem at all as the raised corners give the back glass more clearance.
If you're looking for a crystal clear super thin case that offers nice grip, decent protection and allows you to showcase this nice looking phone then you might be interested in it. If you care more about protection than the way your phone looks and feels then this probably isn't the case for you.
You can pick it up on Amazon for $12.99 (PRIME Eligible.)
Side Note: The Edge display keeps full functionality if that's important to you.

i bought 4 luvvitt cases when they were like $4-5 on slickdeals including this one. haven't opened this one yet, but will. thanks for the review.
Does the back have texture? Does part of the phones glass back stick to it at all?
Also btw the sale on these cases (including the normal clear one) are still going on with the code SLICK007

Yes. The back sides are textured. I also just removed it to see if it stuck and no it doesn't.
I don't know what kind of deal that coupon code gets you but it its $10 or less then I'd definitely get one. I needed the case same day shipped through Amazon Prime so I just paid full price.

can you detail your opinions about the build and pros cons of the Luvvitt cases.
Bought sleek armor and aside from the lack of lip it seems like a nice low profile case with some protection. Just dont like the fact that the phone when face down with the case does not have enough lip to protect the screen.
The home button rest directly on the surface.Testing this out I caused micro scratches on the home button which is naturally a bit raised.
Would love pics and opinions on what yours are like...

Anyone going naked....what are the results?

Just curious as I am using the Best Buy screen protector film and just can't stand the feel of the sharp edges etc so I want to remove it. Anyone gone a while without coverage and if so, any major scratches?
Thanks in advance
Hi @imapfsr,
using my device without a screen protector since 22/12/2016 and have no scrates
Everything should be fine if you use an protective cover for the phone.
I got an inch-long scratch on the screen where usually my right thumb roams around while it's been only a month I got this phone.
Thanks for your input....I was hoping for all positive results but I think Im still going to chance it. I do have a nice lined sleeve so I should be ok. It really is amazing how good this screen looks when you dont have anything on it so Im going to enjoy it instead of obsessing over it and keeping it mint for the next user when I sell it.
have you seen the scratch test videos on youtube for this phone? this phone is as scratch resistant as any other flashship device. i honestly have no idea what people could be doing to scratch this phone. i carry it with my keys in my pocket with zero worry about it scratching after seeing the test. i really don't know how you could scratch it unless you did it intentionally.
I occasionally use the case it came with but 90% of the time this thing is in it's Birthday suite, not a single scratch or mark on it. The Ceramic is such a gorgeous material and pretty much scratch proof! The glass used for the screen is also pretty robust. I wouldn't worry about this thing scratching... drops are what you should be afraid of!
Same here ...ive had rhis since November, I actually hate the leather case and opted for a slim transparent case from China which shows off the body...I tried to go completely naked but this phone is just waaaaay to slippery, dont have a screen protector...and wont put one one....not a single scratch...( Fingers crossed)
Most things wont scratch it, unless its "harder" than the material of the phone.
Watch out for things like SAND! and GLITTER!
Thanks everyone for your feedback. I am full on nude now...lots of hand cream to keep the phone from slipping out of my hands...no scratches on the front but surprise how quickly the ceramic back has developed tiny scratches but it still feels to good for any kind of wrap or skin.
Darn glitter ?

Mine is still mint. Leather case has never touched it. I am overly careful and don't even leave it on most tables and such unless there is a soft tissue, tablecloth or anything covering the surface. That can sort of be crippling for most people. Therefore it's mostly in a pocket clean of debris. I just can't stand cases. I always opt for custom skins for the back so I can put it down everywhere. Chances of finding someone making custom skins for this device must be slim. No luck yet. May have to buy one of those ready made ones. Seen a carbon type, but seems like the choices are few. Please hit me up if anyone else are looking and finds anyone that offers custom ones. Would be much appreciated.
Maybe I'll make my own, idk.
So I am two or three weeks in with no protection, front or back, and I hate to say it but the back of my phone is scratched up pretty bad. I use a sleeve to carry it around and I'm not sure if that is what is causing it. Just curious if anyone else has had bad scratching our if it's just me.
No screen protector, no casing, no nothing. Had it since december 19th. No scratches, still pristine.
It's forbidden where I live, unfortunately.
What is forbidden? Going naked?
I never use the film screen protectors, presently [as with all my past phones] using the provided leather case [will eventually go to a flip cover case - always have them so comfortable with them].
I prefer carrying my phone naked. Especially, when it's a nice looking phone. You just have to be conscious of having your phone and grip it tight while holding it as opposed to casually holding it in a relaxed manner. Nothing will happen to it if you consciously take care of it. At best, put it in your back pocket while walking and not using it, but don't forget it's there
i have been using this naked since i purchased in September 17. Only issue is ceramic is very slippery, so use side sticker atleast to increase grip.
something like this https://www.amazon.com/Decalrus-Pro...coding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=2PK292A230JGWCC1JQTT
but put only on side, no back, no bottom and up
