Hey guys whats going on, Well Looking for a new case for my galaxy s5.
What do you guys recommend?????
Right now I have a OtterBox Defender case, it is a lil Big and already Broke on me, and the Silicone also has ripped.
Trying to see what everyone is using and what has the best protection. Im a construction worker so I like sumthing really durable. Thanks guys
UAG.
i also have the otterbox but i think it's horrible.. makes the phone twice as thick and much bigger.
now i ordered the ringke slim case, i also had a ringke on my nexus 4 and that one was fantastic.
Might want to check out thewirecutter's guide (no link because I'm new )

Yeah I was looking at the spigen tough armor. Looks good. But I also want something to protect the Glass of the phone.
Why would you 50$ for a phone case? On chinese webshops you can get cases like those for around 3-7$. They may not be of the same quality but in combination with a tempered glass protector you will get protection of around the same level!

I currently have the spigen neo hybrid metal case for my note 4.
question is should I get a otterbox? if so what version do you guys suggest?
thanks!
???
Depends on what you like & require from a case really. I have an otterbox defender(well, an imitation one anyway but it's basically the same thing) and it's really great for protecting the phone, but it adds a lot of bulk. I don't mind, but some people do.
Hi. I have 2 Otterbox cases, the Commuter and the Symmetry. Both are well made, protective and both work with a glass screen protector.
The Symmetry feels smaller in the hand and the Commuter is a VERY easy case to live with if you change batteries etc much as it is so easy to put on and take off with the 2 piece design. Either will serve you well.
UAG case! It really protects ur phone.
Gotta love it tough.

do they work with wireless charging? some look like they have a metal back
So my wife and I just upgraded to the new S7's. I decided to get the Edge, my wife got the normal S7. It was very easy to find a nice protective case for her phone,(which she absolutely loves) but as much as I really like the bigger screen and this neat edge design, I am weary of dropping it and breaking the screen.
Ive been scouring the internet trying to find the best protective case I can find that isn't ridiculously bulky. Naturally there are many opinions of which are the best.
At the moment, Im trying the Spigen Neo-Hybrid crystal premium bumper case. It fits really nice. Looks pretty good. It has a 1.3mm bezel around the corners,(1.8mm around the camera)which is decent, but I wouldn't mind something with a bit more protection. This case does seem to cover a bit more of the edge panels than some other pics of protectors Ive seen. I used a UAG case on my S5 for nearly 2 years now and I can't even tell you how many times I dropped it and there isn't a scratch on the thing! But Im kinda tired of that same ol' style they keep sticking with, and I dont know how good their Edge case actually is. Style is a bit important to me, but quality of protection definitely takes priority. I dont own a wireless charger yet, so getting a case that supports it isnt high on my priority list.
So , what are you all using to protect your S7 edges? Ive been looking into many brands and I keep finding ones that I havent even heard of before! Ill list some of the ones Ive seen recommended in a following post.
I'm using the Spigen Tough Armor and it's fantastic. Probably dropped my phone about 4-5 times and it's done it's job. It fits really snug and isn't bulky at all. It's on amazon for 17.99. If you have any questions about that case let me know

Cool. I've been considering trying the Tough Armor. I think I'll give that a try.
I use the tough armor as well. Dropped phone many times lol. Love it.
Edit...
Also just ordered a hybrid. Kind of a otterbox looking case, off of eBay.

Cool. My tough armor should be arriving today. Looking forward to checking it out. I want to make sure my Edge stays as protected as possible without walking around with a something the size of a retro Sony Walkman cassette player in my pocket lol.
I also got this screen protector called IllumiAquashield. I heard good things about it. Its a little tricky to apply, but I've seen in videos that it looks incredible when applied properly. Im really picky about screen protectors, but I know the Edge is a bit more fragile than the regular S7, and I can't afford to take any chances.
Just an update, got my other case yesterday, seems good, however it's massive. I'm going back to my tough armor. I'm also looking for a good screen protector.

I use the Samsung branded clear case. It's very minimal and doesn't interfere with the edge of the screens. This, and the iPhone 6S Plus I had before this, are the only phones I've ever used cases on. I never really liked the feel of the phone with cases and it takes away from the phone and the way it's meant to be. However, these last two clear cases have been nice.

I'm using the otterbox defender on my s7 edge. I also own the supcase unicorn beetle pro. Been rocking the otterbox defender for the built in screen protector and it's a bulkier case so I feel it will provide the most protection of the 2 cases.

I've been using the Cover-Ups Explorer case. It has minimal drop protection but looks very nice with the wooden back. However, today I ordered a SUPcase Unicorn Beetle Pro (what a terrible name!) because it looks like it can be installed over screen protectors without any issues.
I gotta say, the Spiegen Tough Armor is wonderful so far! My phone feels much safer than it did in the other case! I think Ill be sticking with this. Buttons are a little tougher to press vs. the Neo Hybrid Crystal, but Its worth it for the extra protection imo.

I grabbed the IllumiAquashield off of Amazon. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01F5VMRCM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Im pretty picky when it comes to screen protectors. This is really great so far! Its a wet application and when done properly it looks fantastic! Can hardly tell that there is a protector on the screen. Just read the application tips that people added in the reviews if you decide to get it.
Its also case friendly. Fits perfect with my Tough Armor, and there's no sign of the edges lifting up from taking the case on and off. Im genuinely impressed. The kit comes with 2 protectors and they guarantee them for life.
Some pretty respectable points about the company aside from the warranty too. Theyre made in America and manufactured using 100% renewable energy ( just in case you care about that sorta thing).
Like I said, My application went on flawlessly, so if you have any questions, just shoot me a pm!
Which is the best back cover for our one plus 5 ? Anybody from India , Please suggest.
Spigen Rugged Armor
Been covering my phone with it for almost 3 months. Good grip, no scratches, no drops etc... Fits well with fabric front foil or anti fingerprint screen protector.

I wouldn't get the ringke the bumper just gets super messed up on those. I'd say the best thing I like about orzly is that it just feels so much secure. You can check my review on Amazon.in I have some pics uploaded there too.
I can only say don't get the Kevlar one from the official site. You can't use the alert slider in that. And it just looks bulky. Got one and using it.

I think because of the rubber sides it would feel more grippy compared to Ringke's sort of slippery material (I bought one for op3 last year). I had read all the reviews on Amazon and surely leaned towards Orzly only. What color do you have though?

I got the black one. The grip is hands down the best I've used. I've had many phones over the years and this is the most slippery one. But this case just makes me feel so much comfortable holding the phone.

I can vouch for this, since I use the same case.
I use the spiegen case
Spigen Neo Hybrid for ruggedness and Nillkin basic is a decent average in all areas.
The OnePlus 5 Bumper Case Karbon direct from oneplus is the best!
Expensive but best protection. I tested it last night Fall from 1,5 m on the really rainy road without any damage (phone or case)

Hey guys,
I am looking for the best display protection film for my S10+.
I don't think it should cover the selfie cameras because of quality loss. Also it should be compatible with a case.
There are always so many of them and it takes hours to compare the reviews on amazon to find the best one.
If you know any good cases I would be very thankful for sharing. I need a thin and simple one.

I don't know in what universe your case is slim and simple Look to the attachment; that is whats simple and slim. Yours is more like surviving a worlwar
The problem with tempered glass covers for rounded phone displays is always that the glass doesn't fit 100% to the screen so they put 2 lines of glue on it instead of using adhesion & cohesion like the films do.
Don't get me wrong, I like glass more than films but there are no good glasses for phones with rounded edges.
But thank you very much for your help
For screen protecter i use Alien Surface™
Anyone have any feedback on the R-Just or Gundam cases?

With regards to display protection I would strongly recommend these I had the stock screen protector till it got too scratched then I got this one looks just as good no bubbles don't even notice it on there most of the time. The installation is a bit complicated but well worth the extra effort.

It would be great to know what Samsung puts on it. The OEM screen protector works well. The reviews on Amazon for every one of the protectors are awful. The IQ Shield has the best reviews of the bunch, but I am hesitant based on the negative ones.
I figure I'll use the OEM one until it is too scratched and then live dangerously with it naked.
Regarding thin cases - I've liked the Spigen Thin Fit - but it breaks easily. The Spigen Rugged Armor is a bit thicker but much more durable. For the s10, I am using a UAG - but it feels more like a tank - which strangely enough I am liking. Not too bulky and it gives a good grip.
Try Whitestone Dome Glass.. I heard its good.
I'm using my S10+ without any case and screen protector just like my old iphone x and s8..
DO you use them on the original screen protector?
Hey guys, I'm thinking of getting the S20 when its out and want a case ready for it, but i don't know much about the differences and what is good. Does anyone recommend something that is strong and not too bulky?
The S20 comes with a clear plastic case in the box. (At least the Australian version did.)
I'm loving my Schnail cases! I got the clear bumper version as well as the military grade one. They are crazy good!
Clear case
Military grade
Mine using Spigen Liquid Air, so far this case don't make this phone bulky but still protect phone from drop or protect screen when you flip down.
any case recommendation which make perfect fit with some protective glass where no case over glass overlap or not covered space?
