Hello!
Currently I'm using
Spigen Slim Armor:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AUR18D0?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00
IQ Shield Matte
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01BG2ELRI?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00
Its working horribly, there's bubble in all corners (See photos attached). If i'm not mistaken the spigen case is pushing hard on the corners top and bottom.
Is this happening to some of you guys?
What combination of case and screen protector are you guys using so that this doesn't happens?
Thanks in Advance
I have been using the ZAGG invisible shield hd dry combined with a Supcase Unicorn Beetle Pro.
I LOVE this combo.
The screen protector went on relatively easily. did that day one. no bubbles anywhere and it's super clear. it wrapped around the sides easily with the special applicator included in the box. this is NOT a typical credit card squeegee install. I had it just like that for a few days until the case showed up.
What i like about this case is the two part sandwich effect. There is a frame that clips on the front of the phone and the whole ting then inserts into the back. sort of like the ottorbox cases. only half the price. The frame completely protects the edges of the screen protector, i don't thing there really is a way to accidentally rub on the edges of the screen protector and work it loose.
And bonus, it works in my QI wireless charger with no problems whatsoever.
I've got the IQ shield non matte and a Ringke Fusion Crystal case. It's shock simple and has dust covers.

Does the zagg protector should help in case of drops? And is it as good as a tempered glass in that case?

I don't know about best combo (because this is my first combo) but I have the Spigen Ultra Hybrid crystal clear and the Skinomi TechSkin on my gold platinum S7 Edge and so far so good. I just installed the Skinomi last night since I got it yesterday. My Spigen case I've had on the phone since March 5th when the case arrived. I ordered both products from Amazon.
The Skinomi I had did the same as the op, as for the Zagg HD amazon refunded my order yesterday saying something was wrong the product and they were canceling it.

I got a similar case for my S7E ... Spigen Tough armor with the Armour Suit Military Shield... still awaiting my phones frm T-mobile
Zagg HD Dry front and back with Otterbox Symmetry Clear Series
My UAG case pushed the top right corner had to trim just a little. This case seems to be more screen protector friendly. Both cases are pretty much identical is size. The otterbox is much stiffer and back seems more scratch resistant, the UAG is already scratched. UAG offers a little more screen protection in the corners and the buttons are much easier to press. Pics are taken on top of the UAG case for size comparison.

Any problems with the Otterbox peeling up the sides of the protector?

Nope, everything is laying down with no signs of peeling. The zagg did stay on the phone for 3 days with no case while I was waiting for Amazon to deliver and I did blow dry the edges. I don't think this made a difference, otterbox just seems like it sits on top protector better. The case seems to lack screen protection though, the raised edge on top and bottom of screen is only about 1/16 thick. I've never broke a phone but this might be a deal breakerbreaker for some.
I don't have a way of taking taking a pic right now, but I have the Spigen Tough Armor on my GS7E with a Skinomi MatteSkin screen protector.
The Skin has may be 1-2 mm taller than optimal, I have just the slightest push from the case on the top of the skin, but that could also be my fault for not as well aligning the skin as possible. Tough call. I'll probably be putting a new skin on this week anyway just because I'm OCD about it.
addendum 2016/3/23: replaced the MatteSkin last night and put the Tough Armor back on this morning. Alignment seems good. One 'speck' maybe under the skin near the top under the Samsung logo, you'll see some squiggles there where I was working against it this morning to see if it was a bubble that could be pushed out. {shrug}
Fit between the two seems *tight* but *may* be good or great.
After putting the Tough Armor back on I got some push against the bottom left edge of the MatteSkin but a few passes with a spudger seems to have smoothed it back out. See if it stays.
The inner edge of the Tough Armor on the front top/bottom seems tight and sharp-edged where it meets the phone. If this was backed off 0.5mm-ish there would definitely be no issue.
I know some don't like how much the Tough Armor stiffens up the buttons on the sides, but that works in my favor as it cuts down on unintended activation when the phone is in a backpack or pocket, and the shape of the Armor edge makes for a nice flat stance when using the kickstand or otherwise leaning on the side.
Final word: 97% perfect fit. The case ended up pushing the bottom of the screen protector a bit, the inner most lip edges on the Tough Armor was about 1 mm too far to play nice with the MatteSkin. Trimming the edge of the case with a sharp knife though does resolve it, if you can do that with a truly even hand it probably would be a great combo, my hand isn't that perfect so I had a bit of an irregular edge. Worked well though, otherwise.
I'm currently using the IQ Shield HD Wet screen protector:

With the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Rugged Full Body Case:

I just received the Tech21 Frame case in the mail so will be seeing if that works well with the screen protector. Unfortunately I have heard it doesn't but here's to hoping.
Update: Tech21 Frame case will indeed push up on the edges of the screen protector.
The best screen protector I have used to date is from bestskinsever and their customer service is top notch. It isn't noticble at all and the cutouts are scary accurate.
I have ordered some from xtremeguard and the cutouts are too big and I ended up tossing them. The other brand I tried was some from illumni and they scratch up real easy, the fit was better than extremeguard but not by that much and their customer service sucked.

I just ordered the case friendly and edge to edge to see which one I like better. I agree, their screen protectors are top notch.
Zagg HD Dry + Speck Candyshell Clear
Only been on 24 hrs but it looks like a win so far. Both are seriously good quality products, but then they better be for the price.
Galaxy S7 Edge Case, Spigen® [Ultra Hybrid] AIR CUSHION [Crystal Clear] Clear back panel + TPU bumper for Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (2016) - 556CS20034 with the hollow bumpers in the corner works well with screenknight protector.
Obliq Naked Shield Black + ArmorSuit MilitaryShield FullScreen Extreme Clarity HD
Case : Obliq Naked Shield
Screen : ArmorSuit MilitaryShield
While I like the look of the Skinomi MatteSkin on the screen I wanted to try something else, for comparison. So I got the ArmorSuit and put it on, along with the Obliq case - changing over from a more stealth to more bling kind of look, truly.
Both the case and shield are a very nice fit for the device. Not as large nor thick as the Tough Armor I had been using, time will tell whether that's good or bad.
The ArmorSuit screen protector, once on and de-bubbled basically disappears. It's only the 1st day of use but it's very much NOT there, visually.
The Obliq case is also very lean, and the back is very clear, letting the look of the silver phone I have glare out at you.
Combined they seem to work seamlessly together. I was concerned in particular because the ArmorSuit is a full coverage, and not their case-friendly version, however in this case they seem to be working well together. I truly must have gotten lucky with the screen protector install because I literally can't see the edges of it vs the edges of the Obliq case. Nice.
The Obliq is NOT as much protection as the Tough Armor, to be sure, but it is prettier and alters the ergonomics and looks of the phone dramatically less.
The Obliq DOES appear to be a "fingerprint magnet" though ... time will tell.
The ArmorSuit does NOT appear to be a fingerprint magnet, which is nice. It is very glossy/reflective though, as a couple of the pics I've attached show.
I initially had this Roya kickstand case.. plus this tempered glass protector
I've decided to give the iq shield (not the matte one) a try per some recommendations on here.. hoping sensitivity is at least "close" to having no protector (like with regular phones + tempered).. i've had iq shield in the past and its been solid though i seem to recall sensitivity taking a hit.
I'm going with the Beetle Pro Full case (not hybrid one).. i guess its harder to get off if you use gear vr.. but i saw a rumor if you cut the bumpers off near the usb on gear vr a case may fit, unsure.
I saw the Spigen with kickstand.. it looks similar to the Beetle Pro.. can anyone comment on how slippery it is, or if its got a good grip like the Beetle Pro (full) and protects the edges too (easier to get off maybe)? Spigen appears to not have edge protection, so similar to Beetle Hybrid ($11.99 vs Spigen at $17.99).. I would think the Beetle Pro Hybrid would make more sense price wise.
I guess if you get the $99 2 year accidental damage samsung warranty then the hybrid is a no brainer.
Hey,
I might be getting an S6 Edge and was wondering if any of you knew any cases that fit a tempered glass screen protector. I was looking at the Candyshell Grip from Speck and was wondering if one would fit that. If you know any, feel free to reply with the Canadian Amazon link to one.
Thanks

Something like this perhaps..?
https://www.amazon.ca/Galaxy-Spigen...4399046&sr=8-1&keywords=spigen+bumper+s6+edge
I had a similar case (cheaper version of this from eBay... lol), and I've used like 2/3 glass screen protectors previously. One thing i realised was that the raised edges around the corners also kept the glass protector in place. Even when the adhesive once wore out for me lol
Ps - You may want to be a little wary of taking off the case too much because it may allow bits of dust to scoop under one of the edges of the glass protector.
Hope my advice helps you!
Finally checked my notifications! I ended up getting the S6 Edge and got the Otterbox Symmetry case. Everything good so far!
Anyone here using Ghostek cases? which model?
Is it also Whitestone friendly?
thanks for the share.
Yes. I'm actually a big fan of Ghostek cases. I have these: Atomic Slim, Cloak 3, and Covert 2 cases right now for the note 8 and I love all of them. Kindda switch between them depending on if I'm going for a run or just going out.
Atomic Slim provides the most protection, but it's very hard to take it off and put it on. Covert 2 provides the least protection but it's very good looking and slick. AND, good news is, they all fit with the whitestone dome glass PERFECTLY !!! I have been using these cases with the whitestone dome glass on my phone for about 2 weeks now and no lifted edge, no issue whatsoever. If you thinking of buying 1 of these 3 cases from ghostek to use with whitestone dome, go right ahead. These combinations are perfect.
A quick note: make sure you take your time to put on the whitestone dome. These cases fit snugly and give you very little room for error. If the glass is not perfectly lined up, you might have lifted edge on 1 side or at a corner.

I need one rugged case for outdoors and one slim slick case for everyday use. For the rugged case, I'm looking at the Ghostek Nautical. You have familar with one? I heard there are issues with that case.

The Nautical is a waterproof case. I used it briefly and didn't like it, because it's just so big. I think that's the only problem for me. If you don't care how bulky it is, then give it a go.
Also, it's available on Amazon, and if you buy through amazon, you can return it within 30 days to get full money back if there's anything wrong with it.
Hi
I know there have been a few posts already but I'm still struggling to find a protector and case that works together. I've tried the Oxilar tempered glass protector but the edge to edge protectors seem to foul on the lip of the spigen case.
Has anyone had similar problems and have they found a protector that works with this or similar case.
Regards
Neil

Works well with the Speigen case I have.
Hi thanks for that, I should have mentioned I live in the UK and I don't think that's available over here
Did you manage to find anything?
Fist off i tried a Cruzerlite case and not only was it a slightly baggy fit there was no camera protection at all, a shame really as the Bugdroid cases they used to make were brilliant. As this was being returned the Spigen case became available and it is far superior.
The Spigen Rugged Armor is an excellent fit, it feels at one with the phone if that makes sense and all the cut-outs are perfect and the camera module sits around 1mm below the surface of the case to offer it some protection, overall an excellent case that i would recommend to anyone without hesitation.

Any options for a belt clip holster?
Also what are your thoughts on some of the other Spigen cases for this phone
Sorry i have only used this Spigen case in particular but i cant praise it enough really, the fit is exceptional. The UK price for it was £9.99 and it was worth every penny really.
I forgot a link to it in the first post.
https://www.spigen.com/collections/...7t-case-rugged-armor-1?variant=30366585094191
It's a decent case but do wish the back (bottom) was a bit thicker to provide a greater recess for the camera circle. At $11 on amazon it's a bit pricey, but spigen materials and fitment is top notch. 4/5 stars.
I have always been using Spigen case with my OP2 and OP5T. Their cases are perfect. This time I went with OtterBox clear case as I wanted to see the blue back. Perfect fit.
Anyone know if it is compatible with Original Oneplus 7T 3D Tempered Glass Screen Protector?
Or any of the Spigen cases are?
