What cases is everyone using for note 4

Sent from my SM-N910T

Until I find something more protective that I like better, I'm now using the Spigen Ultra Hybrid Crystal Clear, which I bought for $3.49 + $3.00 shipping at the (dead?) Spigen early-morning sale on Amazon.

Spigen tough armor

Until I have enough dough to buy a better one I ordered a clear TPU case off of ebay for $1 with free shipping. Cant beat that, except it is almost 2 weeks shipping. But for a buck, wth.

I picked up the Samsung S View case at Best Buy, because it was the only case I could find in any local stores. I wasn't sure if I was going to like it, but I got used to it quickly.

Spigen neo hybrid, the silver one.

Ballistic case

Ringke Slim, white version to match my white Note 4. It looks really sleek and doesn't add much thickness at all. It's really purty.

but your device is over $800 though, but you're using or waiting for a $1 case? i'm sure one can bust out $10-$15 for a decent case when they have spent that much on a device already. just my .02. as to the original question, i just got the s view and protective cover from samsung, the s view actually closes properly on this version.

Spigen neo hybrid until the Verus aluminum one gets to my door.

Have a red leather caseology bumper frame on the way. I played with the S view case today at Best Buy and I kind of want that one now

Spigen tough armor for now. Waiting for uag cases and will probably get an s_view as well with my 50% off code

Spigen Neo Hybrid (Black) works great and not too big.

Spidgen Slim Armor (Metal Slate) it's a cool color

I'm using a clear Ringke fusion case

For now just an el-cheapo ebay special until I get the wireless charging back/coil situation squared away.

On a side note (no pun intended), does anyone know the difference between the SPIGEN tough armor and the slim armor?

Gold bumper on top of skinomi matte skin body protection w/ urbane (Gold)

So basically as the title says I got the gold aluminum bumper from Amazon as well as the matte skin protector from skinomi to protect around the outside of my phone (including the back and buttons), because the bumper doesn't have much protection on the inside of it and I don't want to scratch my phone, my watch is in the pic solely because it's cool.
Waiting for my leather back from lg, but until then this will do.

My specs are almost similar as yours. I bought exact same bumper with black color since my Moro 360 has black bezel.
I thought my brown leather back might go best with the black bumper. It hasn't arrived yet but ill post a photo as well when it does.

If it's the one with the T-Mobile leather, I'm afraid it's little more towards orange color than brown. But your bumper and your watch bezel have that bling going so I won't worry that much.

Where did u order it from?
Did you get the revised frame?

I got the ghostek ghost armor hybrid case from Ebay. It came with a seperate screen protector so that will hold be until I get a Zagg one. I like it. It's slim and doesn't add bulk. And it allows for some decent protection. The only issue I have with it is I have to remove the lower bumper area of the case a little in order to charge the phone.

I have one from ebay. It looks like amazon dropped the price to about the same as ebay -at the time I bought (The Sunday after the phone released) ebay was $5 cheaper. . The screen protector has a halo, and the bumper doesn't let you charge. Wireless charging is the only option. But I still love it. I just contacted them through their website, and I'm hoping they send me replacements. I'll try to keep you updated.

The aluminum bumper frame destroyed my signal..Went from 3 bars to 1 and data up/down speeds were bareley measurable....Case looks awesome but very disappointed with performance

My case comes today. I have another case as I am suspecting the signal will degrade however I cannot find a lot of negative feedback on amazon with concerns of this issue. I guess I'm about to find out

When you look it up on Amazon, it says "(Updated Version)"
Looks pretty good. Would like to get one, but I just purchased 2 cases for mine, and one of them are pretty similar except the bumper on mine is plastic and not metal.

SlickWraps Skins

I'm a big fan of skins as some of you may already know. I'm creating this OP to discuss and show off your @slickwraps skins once they get released. We all know they're coming, it's just a matter of time before its official. Is anyone else interested in putting a skin on their S7E? I can't get over how reflective it is no matter the color, so for me this is a given.
Update: skins are now live:

I've owned both and my preference for either company really depends on what phone I'm currently using. I only have dbrand skins for my 6P for example. I'm looking forward to both companies skins and I'll keep the better fitting one of the two.

Dbrands matte black has no grip. Way too slippery. The sw color series black is very grippy

I'd like a skin for my new S7. Bought the dBrand Black Leather for my S6 and I think it's quite slippery.
Which should I choose for my next phone? Non slippery, with good grip.

I think I'll try the slick wraps because of the non slip aspect, but am tempted by the real wood "Toast" skins.

Based on my experience (see my reviews of all their skins in my signature) it would be the natural series if they launch it.

We recommend color collection black. It has a nice deep overall texture.

I don't know since I've never had them on a water proof phone, but I suspect they will stay on as long as your not submerging it for a prolonged period. It's like using a screen protector in the water; it will stay but I wouldn't do it just for fun.

I'm hoping slickwraps releases the natural series for the s7 edge. I have the cork on my Note 5 and wouldn't put anything else on my phone. Looks, texture, grip, it's perfect in my opinion.
Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk

Same here. I have a slab of leather and I'll never get anything else.

I hope these ship soon (right now it says March) because my S7E arrives tomorrow, and I don't like using a phone without a skin when it has a glass back.

Best Cases For The Silver S7E?

Hi all. Just wondering what cases are looking the best for the Silver Titanium version.
I am getting a clear case tomorrow but wondering if above have found sine God ones to compliment the silver color.
Thanks!

Ringke Fusion clear is a great case. Perfect fit, buttons are excellent, looks great, really shows of the phone.

I have the Ringke Air but it's going back to amazon. The fit is perfect, it's really light, has a grippy but medium-quality rubber grip, but the left & right sides of the case are too soft & loose. They sometimes lift & peel off when you pick up the phone by its sides. If they made the rubber around the sides a bit rigid, it'd been perfect.

I believe the pictures I posted speak for themselves. I had the issue enough on both my crystal and normal hybrid to easily see it without looking for it.

Ringke Slim for sure!

FazeRN I like your way of thinking. There are lots of good choices on the site. I will add a couple. These companies are specialized in power cases with the difference of possibility of upgrading the case even further. You can get upgrades like laser pointers, better camera lenses, environmental sensors, specially designed VR packs etc. Nexpaq and I-blades are the brands that will set the bar for smart cases in the future. Take a look
