What are your favorite cases for the Galaxy S6?

Now that the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is out and about, we're interested in learning what cases you're after (or currently using) to protect it from damage. It doesn't matter what style — flip cover, full body film, hybrid case or skin case — we want to know your favorites. Following this thread will be our "Best cases for the Galaxy S6 Edge" article that will encompass what our community has deemed worthy above the rest, so share your opinions because they matter!

Pelican Protector Case
I have the Pelican protector case specifically made for the S6 edge. While both the Pelican S6 and S6 edge cases fit my phone, the S6 case covered part of the edge notifications. The Pelican case is solid and lightweight, and most importantly, after a couple drops, my phone remains intact.

Does it reduce the mobile signal?

I like the Spigen Rugged Armor the most. Thin and has a nice feel in hand.

Spigen neo hybrid is great! I had the official samsung clear case which was nice but offered very little protection! The neo hybrid is great looking (some people may find it even adds to how the phone looks) Cut outs are done to perfection. Buttons work flawlessly despite being covered. It fits snug and feels solid as well! I honestly NEVER leave a case on . Anytime i buy a new phone i always buy a case and within a week i take it off because i just don't like the feel, the look , the bulk etc This is the first case i have ever bought that iam happy to leave on

im using this one : http://www.ebay.com/itm/Galaxy-S6-E...t=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item2ede69779b
and its really really good. i have dropped its 3 times, and nothing happend. really good product by spigen.

Nope, my signal is great!

Obliq Slim Meta Case
I am currently using the obliq slim meta case. Its relatively inexpensive $15 on amazon and it arrived in less than 4 days (im located in southern california; LA to be specific).
Its not so much for protection against drops but I love it because it protects that AWFUL camera hump and the lip on the front edge protects the screen if i were to place it face down.
super stylish as well. I cant post a link to it because i am a new member but its easy to find on amazon

Love this case!
I use the Urban Armor Gear and I love it! Dropped my phone many times and this case saved it many times! I like that its see thru and has a pretty nice design on the back. By far the best slimish case I've owned for a phone!

That case is great the only thing that pulls me away is indeed the price, I would love to try it. At the moment my favorite one is ringke slim

My favorite case is my still my first case and that is the Spigen Neo Hybrid!

Anyone run a very minimal case? I don't want to add heft. I usually just use a screen protector, but otherwise naked.

Obliq dual poly: $15 comes with 3 colored accents, and it looks great.
PS I can wirelessly charge with it on also

I run just a slickwrap skin. I got the Obliq for my wife and it is very minimal but I like the wrap with a screen protector better.

one more vote for ringke fusion

Shumuri slim extra for me, should get it soon

Ringke SLIM case is simply beauty. No more worried on fingerprint.

Spigen Neo Hybrid for me too. I really like it. Feels great. Tight fit. Raised just enough to set the phone down either way and not scratch the screen or camera. Looks great.

I have this case, not currently using it due to it having no grip, really slippery, but it does look nice.

Monarch case by UAG is doing good for me, not as thick as otter box, but has taken some waist high falls with no trouble so far.
Check this out at Amazon.com

Monarch

I work in construction, as well. The case I'm looking for needs to be dust and waterproof, so I researched them all. Most are not dust-tight, or waterproof, at all, but there are a couple. I reviewed two on here the other day, and that thread is down just a bit from this one.
ArmorX is what I'm using, right now. As soon as Juggernaut gets theirs out for the Note 8, I'm probably dropping the money on one... I've seen the Juggernaut cases take some serious abuse, and I'm pretty sure that whatever they come out with for the Note 8 is going to be the most protection you can get on the market.

I'm using this case: https://www.spigen.com/collections/galaxy-note-8/products/galaxy-note-8-case-rugged-crystal
It's so cute and sexy but may not be suitable with construction.

i use the unicorn beetle and can confirm it is the best. i work construction. it has flaps to keep dust out your ports but at the same time isnt super bulky

i need two cases, one rugged for outdoors and one sleek / slim for everyday use. Both should be Whitestone OK as well.

How long have you been using that case? I'm reading on Amazon that some people are saying on the first drop their screen broke with that case.

Love the UAG Monarch. I haven't dropped my phone yet (fortunately), but it feels so solid and protective while maintaining a much slimmer profile than the Otterbox.

Is the supcase unicorn pro with the screen protector have a soft or hard inner case design? Does the N8 sit on hard or soft plastic?

Best Rugged Case for Mi 8?

Title says it all
Just need a rugged case for my Mi 8 when it comes in. Preferably, one of those Hybrid Cases, or something with a good lip to protect the screen. I have a Spigen Slim case on my Honor 8 and I have to replace the Screen protector all the time because the protection is just decent.
Was looking at this one but it seems it might have the same problem. Suggestions?

There is one huge case which sells for $30 on Amazon that basically has the best protection out on the market. The only downside is that it makes the whole phone look like a brick.

I have this case an the lip is above my screen protector. It's a little bulky but it's worth it. Love this case

will NILLKIN CP+MAX 3D will be compatible with this case

I use this case the Love Mei case and I couldn't recommend it enough.
You get 360 protection, it's made of aluminum and thick rubber on the the back.
One the inside it has a triangular pattern that helps dissapate heat and there is no loss of signal.
In addition, the screen protector is oleophobic coating gorilla glass so no finger prints or scratches.
The only drawback is that it is a little heavy, and it's big. It reminds me of an Otterbox cases on my old Samsung Galaxy 5. The difference is that it's actually more durable.
Check it out! It's worth the extra cost.

Best thin case

Just got my Mi 9 Lite and was browsing amazon to find a thin case.
Anybody can recommend one?

I've always used this on OP1, OP3 and xi cc9.

As I can see it's not on the official site anymore. But in my oppinion this is the best (slim) case.

Not sure if it's on Amazon but it's on Aliexpress - MSVII.

I have this case and I had that for my Tissot, too. I think it is the best case you can get. https://www.amazon.de/dp/B07QNWKJZL/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_X8AlEb1REYTCJ

Nillkin Super Frosted is very very hard case i think its dangerous for falls, I don't think it can absorb the momentum of the fall, Spigen is the best i ever use (and at my older phones) i bought Nillkin for a change but i regretted it, now I'm wearing spigen , the only disadvantage φορ Spigen is that it does not have an opening for the back led (i don't care for me its useless )

I'm with the Nillkin case, currently I have the same case as you posted, from the same retailer as well. I like the quality feel of the plastic case. The rubber feel of the spigen is not really something I want and it's also a bigger case.

Question Case Recommendations

Hi! Upgrading from the tab s4 to the s8. Guess I'm not the only one! What are prior using for cases? Anything that ISNT on Amazon? It seems like it's the same 3 or 4 cases rebranded? Amazon looks more and more like FBA version of Alibaba. I'm sick of it...
Looking for something low profile that protects well and holds the pen. Don't need a keyboard. Something tactically playing would be nice. I don't really care for the smooth (cheap) tpu feel. I also don't care for the behemoths with all the **** on the back unless it's really low profile.
Any ideas or suggestions?

I'm using the Ultra's keyboard cover, but I was very tempted to get the - I believe it's the Spigen. They had several different cases, including a very tough one. Ideally, I'd like to combine both the Samsung keyboard cover and the Spigen. If I wasn't using the Samsung one, I would be very tempted.
Again, this was months ago, so it's possible it was a different brand, but I don't think so. There should be another thread or two in this section about cases, and that's probably where we were discussing their options, but just check on their site, and you should find them to take a look.
Good luck!

Inhave the Urban Armour Gear for ultra . I love it except the flip thing behind the stand it doesn't close tight anymore

I have the same case and the same complaint. Its a bit bulky, I would like to find a thinner case that locks in the s-pen on the back.
