Looking for thinnest case ?

What's the best thin case for the Note II ? I bought a couple cases at ATT store, they too thick.
I typically rock naked phones, because most cases seem to add too much bulk and thickness. I just like the feel of light thin phone.
Now if the Note II was as thin as the iPhone 5 then I wouldn't mind a Tough Case thick case. But its not, so...

I don't think so, not yet anyways. Dba cases had these ordered straight from the manufacturer. Try inquiring with them for additional case colors.

Any news on that? I'd really like to order one, but having read some comments over there seems to be some issues. Looks like a beautiful/thin case too.

I replied to your post on the other thread. The only comments/issues seem to only involve shipping overseas. And it may be more of a customs thing than anything dba can control.

Sorry man, didn't notice. Kind of all over the place. Got my beast yesterday and had no time until today to mess with it. So I've been doing a million things at once. Thanks again.

If you want slim and protection... Don't get it. I've had the black one since I bought the note 2. Too many exposed surfaces. I dropped my phone and caught something nasty on the top left corner.

Maybe it's just my luck, but I have 2 ringke slim cases that are not snug against the phone. When pressure applied to the side of the case, just below the volume cutout, they both make a creaking sound.

I used to have one of those elago's on my Note 1. I wouldn't recommend these slim cases at all. While they look nice if you drop your phone and it catches the edge like I did with mine. You're going to end up with a cracked screen or chipped at the very least. This is what happened to my Note. Had the elago case I dropped it caught the edge of the table on the way down and it chipped the screen. With my Note 2 I've gone with a aluminium bumper case that protectors the edges and has a decent lip. If you can find a decent slim case with a lip and covers the edges of the front glass that would be better! Samsung phones are so fragile!!

amCase Hybrid Bumper Case

I've been using this amCase Hybrid Bumper case for around a week now. I LOVE it. I came from a similar supcase and this one just feels better in the hand in terms of grip and button tactility.
I also have the screen protector....very clear without the rainbow effect!
I suggest anyone try it out! It's currently only $6 on amazon for the case and screen protector each!

Looks slim fitting round the edges then others of similar style. Does it add much bulk?

Nope, it is very slim in comparison to other cases like it. I was surprised at how good it is for the price

I got this case for .01 cents on Amazon thanks to someone on the forums here. I freakin love this case! I originally bought a case from Best Buy for $34.99.. PSSSHHH.. this blows that out of the water.. price? $2.00 included shipping! Scratches? None. The one at Best Buy was full of them right in the packaging even. It was the only case they had at the time since the M8 was brand new.
Adds a little bulk to the phone, but it's not bad.. it's not a crappy iPhone! Those things look like bricks.

Sadly doesn't seem to be available in UK

The term "bumper case" must not mean what it used to.

"Bumper" cases came in around the time of the iPhone 4 with antennagate. Purely a case which surrounds the edges only. No back.

I was just defining what a bumper style case used to be. Even in later iPhone models where antennagate issues were fixed, Apples Bumper case spawned a whole line of similar style cases for iPhone and other handsets. Companies like Spigen and Draco continued to make bumper cases without rear sections, for design and for edge protection. Latter even made one for the M7 ( http://www.dracodesign.com/draco-one-aluminum-bumper-for-htc-one-m7-black/).
Now it appears a bumper case can mean anything. Bumper to me always suggests "around the edge or extremity". The bumper on a car is at the edges. The bumper in a pinball machine is an edge.
Phones still have antennas dude. They just might not be wrapped around the edges!

He he yup!
I kinda miss not having a "phone of the masses" as the range of cases for iPhone is virtually without limits. Spigen did some really nice true bumper cases made up of two parts one part soft bumper with a harder plastic outer bumper you slipped over the softer one.
Guess it'd be harder to create a bumper for the M8 given its slimmer profile and more rounded off edges. The iPhone was quite squared.

Back when I had my iPhone 4/4s I used to be amazed at how much people spent on their phones protection, it even got to the point where they were buying protection for their cases.

ASH Grey is where its at. Had it on my last 3 phones. Have mine on the way for my S7 Edge.
Have the SUPCASE Frost until it arrives.

For the ones that got theirs, can you tell me/us if you can use a screen protector with the case?
I have the Ash UAG case on my S6 Edge and I have a screen protector without a problem, just want to know if it's the same with the S7 Edge

I received my "ice" UAG a few days ago and, at least for me, this is the case to beat for the S7E right now (especially with my adamantium S7E). I have most of the Spigen cases as well as the Spec and the UAG is, by far, my favorite. The only thing I don't like about the ice version is how easily the clear parts are scratched/marred so I've ordered the ash. Aside from the ice showing marks the fit and finish is great and adds enough bulk to make the phone feel secure without going overboard.
@OP, great video!

any tp that covers flat area only?

Looking for tempered glass that covers the flat area of the screen only. They seem to work much better, maybe even using an existing models glass

If you have the cash, maybe invest in this one. This guy reviewed several cases with it. Just waiting for him to test it with a ringke fusion case and then I'm buying it. Hopefully you are using a case that will work with it.

Just watched a video today where a guy used a ringke fusion with the whitestone dome and the case pushed it up in the corners. Out of 8 cases he tested the fusion was the only one that wasn't compatible.

There a few others not compatible. He made 3 videos so I'd make sure to watch all of them. But he says most cases are compatible.

I just pre-ordered this phone and bought this case. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B085LR78D9/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?smid=A1VXTSRX565TLZ&psc=1.
Is there any good tempered glass out there?
Is it also worth getting a screen protector for the camera as well. I saw this on ebay? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Screen-P...brand=upscreen&_trksid=p2047675.c101195.m1851

The case has arrived and it has a nice solid feel to it, with the cushioned corners. The clear back looks nice too. It has a nice slim feel and I can already see with the nice width, one handed use will be great.
Can't wait for the phone to arrive!

Now using one from MSOVA. The picture quality is miles better. But it does have the problem that it comes up at the edges a bit. Depending on the cover you use this may or may not be an issue to you.
In any case it's better than the one I had previously.

I have the case and it's really good. A nice tight solid feel to it, grippy and feels very nice. Just ordered that screen protector too!

Spigen tempered glass update:
Fits great but just does not fully adhere. There is not a single speck of dust under the screen protector and so that part of the installation went fine, but despite endless squeegee'ing those bubbles just keep coming back. It's not air that's trapped underneath but instead the screen protector just lifts back up. As you can see, all the bubbles are exactly on the edge of the screen and haven't formed on the bezel etc.
It fits great and feels nice, but the being unable to remove the bubbles is a deal breaker.
