PlayProof - Galaxy Note5 Accessories

I like the looks of the PlayProof case from Evolutivelabs but it is only available for iPhones. Whats the most similar one available for Note 5?

Have you seen this video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DvhljsZY88

The tech21 tactical cases are always a nice slim but very protective case with impact absorbing edges and corners. Black color only but lovely cases.

I have the Tech 21 Tactical as well. Great case that doesn't add much bulk.

If anyone is interested, I have the Crash Guard for the Note5, and really love it!
Gives me drop protection from 11.5 feet, and keeps the sliim profile of the Note5, even allowing you to see the beautiful back of the device! (My Note5 has a Matt Black skin on it, to reduce fingerprints/smudges....)

Thanks, does the color look more like blue or black? doesn't the thicker corners look odd?

Color is a dark blue, but I have the "black" Note5, which in sunlight is actually a royal blue. Bumper color matches very closely to the phones color.
The top and bottom are raised to provide the camera (which sticks out from the back of the Note5) protection, when you set your phone down face up. With the raised top and bottom area, the camera doesn't touch the surface you've set your phone down on.
I honestly don't even notice it, except when I'm really looking at the Crash Guard! (Keep in mind, you're viewing a photo which is giving you a blown up view of the bumper)
Buttons work great, S Pen is easy to remove and reinsert.... I really like this case. If you're interested in keeping your Note5 lightweight and thin, but still having excellent protection from drops, this is a great option!

This is RhinoShield CrashGuard red bumper. Hope this will help anyone who was indecisive between bumper or case.
Front shot
Back shot
The ports with Stylus, the cut outs are pretty big
Back view of the ports
The volume buttons and the elevated back for the camera
The power button and check out how slim this bumper is
The bottom of the back is also elevated and the front lip is just enough to not touch table when facing down
Hope this helps

I've used my Rhino CrashGuard for a few days now and am very pleased with it. I was the tiniest bit concerned about not have a back, but I now feel that it's an advantage as the phone still feels very thin while being handled.

Roocase exec tough review with pics

So I received this case for free in exchange for an honest review. First of all I'm very anal about cases and I now own 6 cases for my edge. My favorite before testing out the roocase is the UAG maverick/ice case. Upon opening the roocase i noticed it was a high quality built case. I didn't notice any sharp edges from manufacturing. it felt sturdy and well made and the lines were well constructed. when i put the phone in the case the first negative i noticed as you will see in the front pic is that it fits really well on the sides but the top and bottom don't cover the silver trim of the edge. A millimeter more of case would cover that all up and make it more aesthetically pleasing to the eye from the front. all the ports/ holes line up perfectly. the case feels slim in the hand and it is comfortable to hold. it has protruding nubs on the back of the case so the case lays on those nubs intead of the back face of the case...a nice touch that UAG uses too. I do like the reinforced corners for impact protection and they aren't too enlarged which some case manufacturers do like ballistic. the buttons look metallic. I don't know if they are real metal but they look nice and they are very responsive. and have a great feel to them.One other thing I would change but this could just be a personal preference is that the sides are a little wide and thick and take away a little from the beauty of the edge. the uag case actually designed the sides angled to flow with the shape of the edge which visually adds to the edge sloping effect which this case doesn't. it's totally flat which i think would look fine for a flat screen like the regualar s6 but on the edge , following the edge design keeps the beauty of intact. it's a minor issue. the camera out back if very welll protected. i wish there was a little more design in the white part of the case to give it a little more character and maybe some type of rubber or ridges on the sides to add some grip. I do wish there were more colors available. they have black,white, pink, and red. i wish there was a blue, neon green, etc colors added. i ordered a black on white punisher vinyl sticker to put on the back to add some character. i'lle post pics when i get that on. If you like to switch cases alot this case might not be for you. it is hard to remove since i believe the sides are reinforced with something rigid and they don't flex much.it's the hardest case for me to remove out of my 6.it's hard to get it off the button part. if you don't remove cases often then this is a plus because it's not coming off during a fall or any every day use!Overall i give this case an 8/10. I would say it's my second favorite case out of my 6 cases behind my UAG and says alot with how anal I am about good cases. Thank you roocase for sending me a case. I think with a few tweaks/more color options and word of mouth/advertisement that your company will be a case manuracturer to be reckoned with. thanks again
Got my punisher vinyl sticker on to give the case some character
Hey there Camboteav,
Before all else, I just want to say that the sticker addition that you added onto the case looks incredible! I liked the idea so much that I stole my manager J.Armstrong’s Exec Tough case and stuck a Pokéball on it! :3
Also, I would like to personally thank you for taking the time to provide us with an honest review of the Exec Tough case that we sent out to you. We appreciate the feedback that you had for this case; it carried a lot of valuable ideas and we will definitely take your thoughts into consideration! Much appreciated!
With admiration of your amazing idea,
Bev

I am using the Spigen Neo Hybrid Crystal - I don't think it does curve per se, but it really does feel good in the hand and it is so thin - it is almost like not having a case at all. The case itself is soft plastic so it is mallable - and in a way it does sort of conform to the shape of the S7Edge, but I don't want to overstate it - with the metal frame around it, the frame itself will keep the soft plastic from curving in until your hand puts pressure on the case, if you know what I mean. The firmness of The steel (or aluminium) frame around the case will cause the back to be flat - but because the case is soft, when you hold it it will sort of conform with the shape of the phone. I love it - excellent case- I have always prefered Spigen Cases over the others. Really nice look and feel.
The other thing I like about it - is it makes it easier to hold the S7Edge and type or do stuff and not have the holding hand interfer by accidentally touching the edge.

does it protect the curved screen enough hows the lip ?
usually buy clear ultra hybrid or ringke fusion both give good protection and clarity for the back
i might also consider UAG they have great cases
Funnily enough, this is what I'm after too. I want a case that has a curve on the back similar to the rear of the phone itself.

I got a little bit different one than this from Spigen and it fits great, adds some grip, does not leave finger prints and is very slim. I can't really feel the curve, but it does feel great in hand. There is a slight lip at the top and the bottom of the case, so if you lay it on a flat surface the screen does not hit the surface. The side edges are exposed and it does not interfere with the use of the edge functions. I do think if the phone fell just right on the edge sides it could hit the ground where there is no protection. Hopefully they will make a tempered glass screen protector soon that will take care of this.

I don't believe it offers much protection for the screen - drop the phone screen down and it is likely to break - (depending on how high you drop it and how it lands of course) I think it does offer some decent protection for the phone - the back and the edges - I wish there was a good option for glass screen protectors but I don't think they have perfected that yet for EDGE..for now I am waiting on a pet type screen protector from Skinomi (I think that is how you spell their name).....

the one you bought looks identical to the one I bought - may be slightly different - I just realized that my case also has a "lip" at the top and bottom of the phone that keeps the screen from touching when placed on it's face. The only difference between yours and mine that I can see is the aluminum is gun metal grey on mine - looks great on the phone....
I got this but not got phone yet so can't comment.
Sorry this

The one I have that fits your description is the Spigen Liquid Crystal.
It is clear and has the same rounded back sides as the phone.

the problem with the liquid is that it doesn't provide enough protection for the screen
so i ordered the CLEAR ULTRA HYBRID in the end
now i gotta find some good screen protector..
Bah, I've used the crystal on 3 different phones and they have survived drops and usage just fine.
But I'm not one to buy a nice phone and wrap it up like an ugly mummy either.

Both are nice cases, you will be happy with either.
I'll probably get the Samsung clear case. I like to keep the phone thin and not hide it in a case. I know it's a risk as far as protection but I'm very careful with my phone. *knocks on wood* I will get something to put protect my phone when I put it in my golf bag though. lol

For Clear case lovers: Spigen NEO-hybrid vs ULTRA-hybrid vs Speck review

(Unfinished first post. I hit send accidentally. See post 2 for completion.)
For those of you who also want to stay with clear cases for these gorgeous phones, here's my little contribution after 2 weeks with these two Spigen clear cases I see asked about most.
Note: We first bought a Speck Clear, but it scuffed fast, felt bulky, and didn't have the nice grippiness their opaque Candyshells do. We got the Speck Grip for something to trust out on a horse or Rollercoaster. It's a very grippy, slim tank.
Since then, I've been VERY happy with both my Spigen Neo-hybrid and Ultra-hybrid crystal cases. I'd read reviews obsessively for weeks, so was a little skeptical, but I think @Pilz was correct in assuming they'd fix noted issues after the first batch or so, since mine do not have the issues noted in older reviews.
So, point by point comparisons:
- NEO-hybrid - has metallic colored rim piece
-ULTRA-hybrid - solid, all clear
Drop Protection:
Ultra-hybrid crystal - I feel very confident. It's military grade rated, and we can feel/see why.
Corners and edges are strong & cushioned.
It has more lip on front, and nice, curved "feet" on back corners, so no scuff marks from laying it down, no fear about a fall on front or back. There is space between the back of the case and the phone, adding more protection (and making "watermarks" almost impossible - see below).
Neo-Hybrid Crystal - I wouldn't trust with a bad drop. Not military grade, no air cushion, just "dual layer," which doesn't mean a whole lot, like it does in a Speck.
It has no feet on the soft back, and a little less lip in front.
Grippiness:
Ultra-hybrid - some grippiness in the material on the lips & edges. Buttons and ridge around the back adds some friction
Neo-hybrid - almost none. Good enough grip in hand, but very slippery in your pocket
If any clear, strong material could be as grippy as Speck's rubbery material, they would have used it in their clear case.
Backs (and about watermarking):
Ultra-hybrid - back doesn't touch the phone. It's stiff & flat. So the only water-marking I get is a tiny smidgen after a lot of use or pressure in my purse, touching the AT&T mark, under the camera. With concerted effort, I once got a about a 1" x 1/4" strip there.
Both were easy to pop off with a squeeze to the sides of the case.
Neo-hybrid - has a fine dot matrix on inside of relatively soft, slightly curved back
Buttons:
Ultra-hybrid - Ridged, firmer, prominent, clicky, and nice. The ridges could be smoothed (see below), but I like them for friction in my pocket.
Neo-hybrid - Perfect feel. Almost flush with rim, less firm, clicky.
Fingerprints:
No difference between Ultra or Neo. Neither a problem, although any clear case over black phone is going to show things like crazy. On my silver phone, you have to shine the sun at an angle to see anything. I'm always puffing on and wiping all my cases, regardless, for the feel.
... Continued in next post
... Continued...
Beauty
Ultra-hybrid - I didn't trust pics, or I would have just bought this one. It's just as nice with the clear, kind of sparkly edges as the Neo is with the metallic rim. It shows off the phone's curved back as well.
No watermarking problem. (See above)
Neo-hybrid - Slightly sleaker beauty. Has the metallic rim, smoother lines, slightly slimmer, flatter buttons. Beautiful.
Dot matrix in back is barely noticeable, but ensures no watermarking or dust, ever.
Miscellaneous observations
Ultra-hybrid:
- Because of the air space between the back and the phone, and no obvious rim around the camera cutout, I was most concerned about dust getting in. So far, none, even from my purse or using it in bed all day on a plush blanket. It seems to be curving from the inside to touch/seal.
- The flat backside has a VERY sharp edge, as though it were unfinished. I wouldn't have been able to use the case another hour if it hadn't been easy to smooth off with my fingernail file.
Neo-hybrid:
- For some people, the decorative rim is somewhat loose and bulges on the sides. Mine doesn't have either problem. Whether that's because I've never separated the rim from the clear case (despite instructions saying to apply them separately), because they did something different, or because I got lucky, who knows. I would not advise separating the two pieces, regardless. The case goes on and off as one just fine without adding that extra stress/stretch to the rim.
Finally, if I had to have only one case of the four I've used for this phone, it would easily be the Ultra-hybrid Crystal.
It has the best combination of great protection and minimalist, clear design.
... But it's nice to have the sweet Neo-hybrid for dress occasions where it's safer than most and probably the most attractive of all.
I have the Speck Clear Candyshell case for my Galaxy S7 Edge. Well I dropped it from about 4 ft yesterday onto the floor and the screen shattered on the left hand side. I am not sure where the military grade protection is, but it didn't hold up for me. Looks like the lips didn't do their job and the entire left edge of the screen hit the floor. :crying:

Ouch! That's scary to hear. Speck is where I go for the ultimate in protection. Their clear case seems to be a quality anomaly in many respects.
I'm so sorry about your phone. I'd be :crying: too.

Thanks. They do look very much alike. Do you think either one to be more scratchable than the other? I never put my Neo on its back or in my purse unprotected because I worry about it scuffing.

I was thinking of doing this too. Were you able to smooth it down completely to where it feels totally smooth/round, or did you just take a bit of the sharpness off? And did it look OK?

Yes. You can't see it at all. I left the top edge alone just to compare.
I made it smooth and more rounded, but there's still a palpable rise, unlike the curved back of the phone or the Neo.
I started with lighter strokes, done just in areas I touch most, but as the days want by, got more brave and did all of it thoroughly.
FWIW, I used my diamond dust fingernail file, which is pretty fine even on the "shaping" side. I used that side most. The "finishing" side smoothed slick, but so did just using the case a bit, so it wasn't worth bothering.
On the onyx black phones, the neo hybrid back adds a bit of haze, so I find the ultra hybrid to look quite a bit better to me.
The gap in the back does worry me as some work trips I go on have a ton of dust. You can definitely tell a difference by just taking it in the shower, moisture gets between the back and the case for the ultra hybrid easier.
The neo hybrid also looks and feels larger in all dimensions to me. According to their site, it's depth is slightly larger which adds a bit of protection when setting it down face up or down, but yeah it doesn't have air cushions or claim the mil spec. The neo's texture on the sides feels nice. Also, my Monoprice cables don't fit cleanly in this case, though I can force it in. The ultra hybrid is flexible with the ports

nope you'll need to buy that separately if you want one
Just received the Ghostek Atomic 2.0 Case. Even though Screen is not glass does not feel that back. No stickiness like plastic films. But for now just had it on for some hours so can't really say for long run yet.
It is a bit wider like a little over 1/4" more than the UAG case. Which adds to black borders on the front as seen on the pictures. So if you already had trouble using it with one hand, this would cause a bit more trouble.
The thickness is about the same as the UAG case when both are facing screen down.
This case advertises Waterproof but has 2 openings for the speaker grill on top and the home button on bottom. I would expect water could get in through those openings. Screen is dot matrix.
The look of the case for me is nice and does not make it look ugly in my perspective. As because the screen guard as they call it make it look like the screen is showing more than some cases that adds front black plastic borders on top and bottom.
The one thing is you might want to use wireless charging more due to having to open up ports more often if using a usb charger.
Here are some pictures I took. Sorry about quality. The best Camera I have is the GS7 edge. lol.
http://imgur.com/a/osNxm
Right now I'm using it with the TANAAB Screen protector.
I'll post more about it. But first reactions seems to be a good case but would depend on how you would see it and if the 1/4" width bigger than a UAG case would be a drawback or not.
It Seems that Ghostek send several out to Mobilefun or Uviyo in batches but haven't shipped through their main site.
Update:
Update about the openings mentioned above. The waterproof works and does not get inside case if there's nothing that raises the area where the openings are. I had the TANAAB TGSP that doesn't go full length of the phone let water in but when removed and tested no water went in. So waiting to test it with a similar TGSP like GPEL2 that fully extends the the phone and see how that works.
When With TANAAB. Sensitivity didn't change and could provide good protection if needed as the outside screen is just a thin plastic film.
Just wanted to point this out.

Any cases with "nexus"printed on them?

Hello guys
I have been using this device for few weeks . And now I'm looking for a nice case
I want a case with Nexus printed in back of them and remaining case should be plain /with descent texture
I've already searched on Amazon.. but looks like cases I want are not available in my country :silly:
So can anybody suggest me a good case and post a link here ?
Thanks in advanced
(Ps I'm using black Nexus 5x .. in case someone needs that info too )
(Please ignore grammatical mistakes if any )
I got a Smoke Black Silicon S cover, it protects against scratches and minor bumps, and it gives some extra grip. Also looks really sweet and since it's quite transparant it still shows LG and Nexus. Can't really find the link anymore but searching smoke black tpu s or smoke black silicon s will probably get u the same thing, and it's quite cheap too, mine was like €2 from aliexpress.
The supcase comes in a version with a clear back so the Nexus logo shows?
Amazon Link Example
Thats the case I use. Its been a great case.
I bought a nillkin tpu 0.6mm. Its cheap and good too ( ₹399). And no Nexus is not printed on it, but its transparent, best thing about this case is that it also covers the usb and headphones slot. And the power, volume button feedback is also improved. See here

I use the same case and like it. "Nexus" is clearly visible through it. I kind of wanted to be a **** about showing it off as Nexus and their's no difficulty seeing it. IMO it's doubtful that you will find a decent, legit, case that says Nexus on it unless Google sells it. Nexus is one of their trademarks. You may find some skins that sell you the letters n, e, x, u and s that you can stick on with the rest of the skin but they are pushing it too since they are replicating the size and font of the actual trademarked logo.
The Nillkin is okay, the best thing about it is the dust flaps. BUT, it's a little too thin for my liking and feel flimsy. Has no camera protection whatsoever.
I'm using a Ringke Fusion now and it's much better. Not flimsy (i would like it to be a touch thicker) and has proper camera bump protection. I have the smokey black/clear as i read the all clear can discolour (yellow) around the edges. Plus it comes with a cutout template which you can make any logo visible through the clear back. But i'm not using it as the Nexus is very visible and looks great. The button feedback on this case is great (same as Nillkin).

The Nillkin is okay, the best thing about it is the dust flaps. BUT, it's a little too thin for my liking and feel flimsy. Has no camera protection whatsoever.

What about the space between camera fingerprint sensor and flash,some people said the phone could be scratched with the ringke.

I've had mine for about a month now and no such scratches on my black 5X. The back of the Ringke Fusion is a harder plastic to the side bumpers, and yes the cut-out for camera and finger print does appear to have a sharp finish where it makes contact in this area. The actual side where you can touch has a slight bevel edge, it feels great. Given that it sits flat with no movement, I can't see how it can scratch the back of the phone. I've used many cases with this phone, this one is easily the best so far. It's a perfect balance between moderate protection and retaining the natural feel. Plus it looks very nice and clean. The only negative I have read about it, is the clear bumper version and discoloration. I have the smokey black which has no such issue. [Edited for more details]
