Spigen coming out with the Neo Hybrid for the Note 3! Was one of the best cases for the S4 and I'm guessing it'll be just as good on the Note 3. The frame part around the pen looks cool.

Any word on the Slim Armor View? I bought the Neo for my S4 but after seeing review for the View, I regreted my purchase a little bit (home button is super sensitive)

Check out the Amazon.com Promo's on Spigen
On Amazon.com Spigen has a number of products listed but only the Neo-Hybrid and the Crystal Clear screen protectors listed on the Spigen site which is odd, but hey Amazon.com does get a lot of traffic.
I posted the comment below on Android Central and thought it would be of benefit here as well:
A lot of users ask who makes a great screen protector and I always say Spigen (SGP Steinheil). Well on Amazon.com I found some great promo deals going for the GN3, pricing that isn't even on Spigen's site but these are shipping directly from Spigen on 9-20 & 9-30 depending on the products. Even if you are on the fence spend $1.00 on a case and/or a screen protector package and get free shipping.
Now I already know I will be getting a tempered glass screen protector but that will take a couple of months before they are really out there so I need something now. Why not get in while the pricing is good. The Neo-Hybrid pricing is on the Dante Red Amazon.com: SPIGEN Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Case Protective [Neo Hybrid] [Dante Red] Slim Fit Dual Protection Cover for Galaxy Note III - Dante Red: Electronics
Also they are selling the SPIGEN Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Screen Protector Clear [Crystal] [4-PACK] **Value Pack** Premium Front Screen Protector + Back Protector for Galaxy Note III for $1.00 as well. Jump on these asap. Amazon.com: SPIGEN Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Screen Protector Clear [Crystal] [4-PACK] **Value Pack** Premium Front Screen Protector + Back Protector for Galaxy Note III: Cell Phones & Accessories
The screen protectors are their film material ones, not their Glas.t series but for $1.00 you get (4) front and (1) back in the package. Can't go wrong.
Also on Amazon.com you can get the Glas.t Slim and Glas.tR Slim for the Galaxy Note 3

The Dante Red Neo-Hybrid is $1 as of right now http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Prote...qid=1378782368&sr=8-21&keywords=Spigen+Note+3 but I SUSPECT it will go up to FULL PRICE very soon. The Crystal Clear Screen Protector (4) Pack was also $1 and it just jumped to $9.99 so it could be a pricing error that someone is fixing.
I picked up the red one for a $1, status via amazon "shipping soon".. Locked in, no turning back now, Spigen!

I got in on the $1 sale on the Dante Red Neo-Hybrid AND the $1 (4) pack of the Crystal Clear Screen protectors. But I just couldn't stop there I also ordered the Glas.tR Slim and the Slim Armor Black both of those were reg. retail. I am hoping they release a Spigen Slim Armor View like the GS4 in which case I will send my Slim Armor back.
Thank you for sharing, waiting Note 3.
also slim armour is going to be available for it as well

Spigen film screen protectors & Glas.t/Glas.tR
I have been a big fan and user of Spigen products for years and tonight I happen to find that for some odd reason Spigen has a bunch of products up for pre-order on amazon.com that are not yet available to order on Spigen's site or even listed on Spigen's site yet.
Two items are the Crystal Clear (Film), Oleo-Phobic and of course the ever popular Glas.t Slim and Glas.tR Slim. If you recall Spigen did not offer a Glas.t series for the GN2 due to issues they had so I was very pleased to see them return with a GN3 version. I have pre-ordered both the Crystal Clear (2 packages $1 each on promo as noted below) AND the Glas.tR Slim.
**** Well I spoke too soon, the price has now jumped to $9.99 glad I got in while I did. Still not bad for a (4) pack plus (1) back protector.
http://www.amazon.com/SPIGEN-Samsun...&qid=1378782251&sr=8-1&keywords=Spigen+Note+3
I have used both of their screen protectors extensively and I can say their Glas.t series is worth money in terms of durability, feel and clarity. Their film based ones are also a good deal and at the cost of $1 (right now) it might be worth stocking up just so you can have some spares if you wreck them.
Also they are selling the SPIGEN Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Screen Protector Clear [Crystal] [4-PACK] **Value Pack** Premium Front Screen Protector + Back Protector for Galaxy Note III for $1.00 as well. Jump on these asap. Amazon.com: SPIGEN Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Screen Protector Clear [Crystal] [4-PACK] **Value Pack** Premium Front Screen Protector + Back Protector for Galaxy Note III: Cell Phones & Accessories
The screen protectors are their film material ones, not their Glas.t series but for $1.00 you get (4) front and (1) back in the package. Can't go wrong.
The Glas.t Slim and Glas.tR Slim are $27.99 & 34.99 respectively and while there are cheaper versions available Spigen goes the extra mile to continue to push the envelope and get thinner and thinner without sacrificing quality. The Nano series is available for the GS4, perhaps it will arrive for the GN3.
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Prote...qid=1378782368&sr=8-21&keywords=Spigen+Note+3
Hang on so you got them for only 1 dollar? Wow.. Are you sure that's not just the pre-order price?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Nope, they were on there for $1 so I ordered (2) of the (4) packs, but then the price shot up to $9.99 a hour or so later. I also ordered the Glas.tR Slim $34.99 and I got the Neo-Hybrid Dante Red $1. If I had been smart I would have ordered like (10) of each and sold them for say $2-3 to help others out and cover shipping but I didn't want to get stuck with extras I didn't need.

What's the advantage of having the glass screen protector compared to the normal ones?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Its tough to quantify it, but its smoother, easier to use and you feel like you are using it without one on the device.

Hi,
Apologies to what might be a stupid question, but could someone tell me the differences between the following two products, is it the same product listed twice but at different prices or is there genuinely something different:

i was wondering the same thing about the Glass..... I'll still get a TG protector, better to be safe than sorry....
I'm not real picky. Never used a device with screen protector that I didn't like. To me, as long as it's applied correctly I don't even know it's there. Therefore cheaper is better. Bought a 6 pack of these "SUPERSHIELDZ- High Definition (HD) Clear Screen Protector" because it was the cheapest I could find. 6 pack for 6 bux shipped. Arrived in 2 days. Standard front and back peel off protectors for each one and 2 cleaning cloths. I'm happy...

I am pretty sure that I have narrowed down my choice between these two.....
I cannot trust myself with a "naked" phone I need a full case, that being said I like the Spigen Neo Hybrid case.
Which protector would you recommend if the phone's plastic will never see the light of day.....
Should I go with the thinner Glas.t or will it not matter in a Spigen case?
I used to be a firm believer in using my phone without a screen protector but after having my LG G2 for one day (Gorilla Glass 3) I have 2 deep scratches on the screen after sitting in my jeans with my car keys. I thought keys wouldn't scratch Gorilla Glass 3 but apparently I was wrong.
I am ordering some Spigen screen protectors for my N3 for sure. Anybody know the difference between the Ultra Crystal for $15.99 and the regular Crystal for $9.99 on Amazon?

Mine still shows a ship date of 9/30 but I have two cases not due into stock until 9/30 my crystal clear screen protectors are in stock and now the Glas.tR Slim says 10/10 for stock but my entire order says 9/30 so I am not sure if their initial stock is sold out on Glas.tR Slim or what. But this is why I opted for the crystal clear film ones just case I ran into a delay I can't afford to go without protection.
My card was charged immediately though which is a BIG NO NO, they are not supposed to charge a credit card until an items is ready to ship which could get them into trouble with PCS compliance.

I sent an email earlier and asked why my card was charged 20 days before it ships and whether or not that means its shipping before 10/10. Awaiting a response..
Anyone have an idea if DBA (Just like glass) will release a protector soon for the Note 3?

It is a shame, that with such great products, if Spigen SGP would work on their customer service model, infrastructure, and bring support back to SPIGEN SGP instead of the current "re-seller assumes liability" approach, they could control a large market share of the ever expanding cell phone accessory category.
This case is for the Samsung Galaxy S4, it is not available for the Note 3. I know that many of you, have contacted Spigen SGP about the possibility of producing this glorious case for the Note 3. I have contacted them and they have said there are no plans for producing this beautiful case. My hope is that with this thread someone at SPIGEN SGP might see it get the ball rolling.
This case is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL and offers a full protection that many of us want/need, they are already producing Slim Armors for the Note 3. SO how many of you want this case?
The SPIGEN SGP Slim Armor View is a hybrid of our Slim Armor and the Samsung S-View Cover that offers a new and innovative flip case designed specifically to increase the user experience. The Slim Armor View is a case which offers full body protection. It takes our popular dual layered Slim Armor case and includes a polycarbonate flip cover to help guard your phone against scratches and accidental drops. The removable flip cover is attached by a special hinge allowing the cover to be folded all the way back with ease. The Slim Armor View also includes the automatic sleep/wake function when the cover is closed and opened. The view window and built in access to the home button offers the user a way to receive incoming notifications and calls without having to open the cover on the case. The sophisticated and optimal design makes this case one of a kind.
RaptorMD said:
I am calling on Galaxy Note 3 owners to help me encourage Spigen to offer a case that I know would be a hit just as it has been on the Galaxy S4 (I had one on my Galaxy S4 and was very happy with it).
If you are not familiar with the Slim Armor View that Spigen offers you can see what it looks like here for the Galaxy S4 here is a link http://www.spigen.com/brands/samsung/galaxy/galaxy-s4/galaxy-s4-case-slim-armor-view.html
So if you are interested in Spigen making this case, think they should make this case and would want to buy this case then I ask you to hit yes and also contact Spigen directly at them on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/SpigenWorld or Twitter https://twitter.com/spigenworld or email them on their site www.spigen.com
Thank you.

If you end up deciding that this is not the case for you. Jot a line in this thread as to why, and if a particular feature or aspect of the case would convince you otherwise.
Don't forget to drop a quick line, (as well as a link to this post if you so wish) on the SPIGEN SGP social media sites above (thanks to @RaptorMD for the links)
Please do NOT submit a support ticket or question. Their support is crumbling (I am sure due to all the iSheep) I suggest only social media for this battle. At least untill their support blunders get straightened out.
Thanks

If you would buy it, please vote. I have emailed Spigen directly with a link to this thread and to one on AndroidCentral.com so they will see there is demand for it. I also encourage you to email them as well.
I had this case on my Galaxy S4 it is an awesome case and with a larger S-View window for the GN3 it would be even better.
I do hope most people agree with me that $49.99 is a SMALL price to pay for FULL 360° protection of our $700 phones. All the while most features of the phone will still be accessible while that front panel is closed. It is the perfect combination of SPIGEN SGP quality and protection with SAMSUNG S-VIEW integration. Another blow to the Slim Armor View cause:
I'm happy with just a typical TPU cover and a screen protector, myself.

I think it took almost 2 months for it to come out for the GS4. If they are still deciding to add this case to their lineup, then it probably didn't sell well for the GS4 to guarantee a day 1 release like they are doing with the Neo Hybrid and Slim Armor. Might take awhile for this case to come out if they do decide to make it.

I don't know about the Tr, but when I did use this case for my GS4, I was also using MIME's ghost glass protector. I had no issues besides (for some reason) dust be attracted to the edges. Not sure why it was happening, but you shouldn't have any issues using the View and Glas.Tr together. I'm 100% sure Spigen make's sure all of their products are compatible with each other.
So, Spigen just replied to me via Twitter:
@spigenWorld Will you be releasing a Slim Armor View for the Samsung Note 3? VERY INTERESTED!

I was able to get a Slim Armor View to work with my Glas.tR Slim a bit snug but it did fit. I suspect a Glas.tR Nano would work perfectly.

I can only say encourage others to tweet it, FB it and comment here. I linked this thread and one on Android Central as proof of the interest. Of course we all know that not everyone will partake in a poll or take time to write but if you know someone who likes the case they should tell Spigen.
Exactly what the title asks.
This is not a thread for what you think is the best case out there. This thread is for you to post what case/s you use and your experience with it.
It is also to help other users find new cases that they may like.
Maybe include a link if you think it's good.

The iloome tempered glass screen protector is amazing. Feels so good to touch, doesn't collect fingerprints, is crystal clear, and does not interfere with the S-Pen at all.

I use my Note 3 as a dash cam in my car and also frequently to watch stuff or browse the web while in bed. So, I needed a slim case that I could easily mount but also had a kickstand. The Seidio Surface case was perfect, is slim, has a metal kickstand, and offers great protection. I use it with a Tech Armor ballistic glass screen protector. Great customer service from Tech Armor. I fudged the first installation and they sent me a replacement, no questions asked.
I got my note3 from Costco and bought the SquareTrade insurance for $100 for 2 yrs. With that protection I wanted to go as light and small as possible so I'm just using a Spigen Slim UltraFit case and no screen protector... I've always used a Seidio surface case and a zagg screen protector but always wanted to bare. This lets me get as close as possible without having to worry about little scratches on the phone and having a little bit of protection... Obviously this isn't the case for most people but the insurance makes me feel a lot better...
I just moved from the Love Mei Powerful to the newer Love Mei Powerful case. The name is really bad. The signal is bad in low signal areas. I live in town and have no problems with it. The latest version is lightweight and offers great protection. I'd recommend them, but it's not for everyone. Here are some pictures

I just moved from the Love Mei Powerful to the newer Love Mei Powerful case. The name is really bad. The signal is bad in low signal areas. I live in town and have no problems with it. The latest version is lightweight and offers great protection. I'd recommend them, but it's not for everyone. Here are some pictures
Old case (I had the silver model)
New case (I have it in red.)

Could you link that second version. I'd love to check it out. Looks bad ass.

This is the "small waist" version. My wife's friend gave it to me when she got the UAG. It's a nice Case though. You'll have to wait about 10 days for shipping from China. Here's the link to the website http://www.lovemeicase.com/pro.asp?id=45
I got these two off Amazon for 1/4 that price.

That case looks amazing, but for the flaws I know it has, it's not worth almost $90.
I would rather buy it directly from them though instead of on Amazon. Too many fakes out there.

If these are fakes I'd be impressed. The case is branded with their logo and the packaging is all branded. Comes with a lanyard and tools with their logo. If it isn't your thing, my friend replaced hers with the UAG and it is very nice.

And a fake Neo Hybrid on Rotation.
Currently using the TPU-ish one because it's the slimmest.
Im using griffin extreme survivor case, black. U can check it on their website.
Protection is good imo, whole body is covered.but a bit bulky
Im using the white Spigen Slim Armor View until my zerolemon battery/case gets here.

You would be surprised, man. Take Spigen for example. They have so many counterfeit makers out there. Some of them are so accurate, they even include a BS serial number in the case just like authentic Spigen. Some you really can't even tell the difference. It's just my thing to buy directly from suppliers sites or the Amazon link they provide.

who knows when they will get here, hopefully they don't suck too bad lol.
I'm currently using the Otterbox Defender case. I just received a Diztronic TPU case in hopes that it would fit properly with the official wireless charging cover. It covered the entire phone but the volume up button ended up being unresponsive or stuck when I pressed it hard enough for the phone to register it. It's useless for me now. I will hold onto it as a "just in case" backup.
I'm thinking about purchasing the Spigen Slim Armor View. I will buy it once all the issues with 4.2.2 gets fixed.

I have the Diztronic TPU over my N3 with OEM back charging cover, and have not had the same experience at all. I suggest considering exchanging your case for a new one. Mine works great, and the power and volume keys are as good and responsive as without any case. Others have reported good experience as well.
I was using the caseology with faux leather back that could be had on Amazon for $5 after shipping a while back (I got the red, blue, and black backs for $15 total). Just switched to the belkin sheer. I like how thin it is yet still providing screen and camera lip and corner protection.

My UAG case just arrived today and I'm very excited! These cases have a real industrial, well built, and good look to them. For the note 3 there are four colors to choose from Orange, black, white, and slate. I chose slate because I wanted a flat low profile look rather than the bright orange or white case. These cases sell for $34.95 with free shipping on the UAG website. But can be found cheaper on amazon sometimes.
The overall build seems to be very sturdy along the outside and had a TPU inside so the phone has a soft surface to rest against. The remodeled version of this case has cut outs for all ports and holes. The hole for the pen is very big making it easy to access. The case does come with a screen protector.. It is not the best but it works.
The power and volume rocker buttons are extremely easy to click even right out of the box. They are not too stiff nor to loose they give a satisfying click more so than the regular phone buttons.
This case is thin enough that it is still easy to hold with one hand and the sides of the case provide a honeycomb textured grip so it will not slip out of your hands. Since the case does not have a rubbery back but a more hardened texture it will not get caught in your Jean pockets and slides out nice and smoothly.
Some final touches that are nice on this case are that the back and front of the case has a raised lip in the corners so it will never sit directly on the screen or be in risk of scratching the nice finished back of the case. Also the cutout for the camera is glare free so it will not interfere with the camera at all.
Overall this case built by UAG is a extremely durable industrial looking case which will protect your phone from falls. You will more than likely have people comment on your case and ask you where they can get one as well.

Very nice review, I love my UAG case. Had it on since day one and work in an automotive shop.
Thanks man! Just came back from the gym and while I was on the treadmill I dropped my phone and it landed on the moving floor and shot off into the floor.. I didn't even bother to think twice because I knew it would be protected, which it was!

I got the rust color UAG case in a day ago. Absolutely love this thing. It feels plain awesome no matter how I hold the phone. Looks unlike any other case. Heck even the included screen protector is awesome. Highly recommend this case...

Here's what I'm gonna need ya to do, trade your Note 3 for the Classic White, trade that case for the black/white one, then re-take the pics and post them here.
Just kidding man. Nice write-up and pics. Looks good!

I have a tempered glass protector on. I just didn't bother installing the SP that came with the UAG. That'd be like putting a t-shirt over a bullet resistant vest for 'extra protection'
I use a black UAG case and while it looks really good and does well for protection there is one or two things I've noticed.
First (at least on the black) after having it a while it has started to show scuff marks. This is probably because I don't always set it on an even surface.
Second, I wish the hexagonal side was a bit more grippy. I know that if it were it would be harder to take out of pockets but, just personal preference.
No intention of changing cases and these issues are not enough to make me change cases. I am quite happy with UAG and will look to them first for future phone cases.
The Nilken was out of stock at amazon so I went with the tech armor. Spent some time reading, seems they all work well.

I always thought like uag looked like the end of spigen when I had the uag logo upside down lol
I just got my UAG case, the slate one, and absolutely love it and I have the wireless back and it fits quite well. I also went with a tempered glass protector and had it on before the case so I just kind of chucked the one that was sent with the UAG which was a laugh. Anyhow, I'd buy another one for my next phone in a heartbeat.
Don't hate on the included screen protector... For 1, it's actually decent. I used it until I got my tempered glass in. Second, they don't have to include the screen protector. Most manufacturers these days don't. I really like that they include it. If you tossed it then that was dumb. Always a good idea to have a spare protector around.

My original spigen case has a bad quality, no is a premium case, purchased in novembrer in official seller in amazon, and after months a use this a pictures !!!
Red bumper not is RED is white, only is red a paint, all part is white with RED paint.
This a case of 30$, original, but not premium.
I send one email to spigen suppot and say, that only has 90 days of replacement.
Please know that you are out of your 90 day replacement warranty.
I have reviewed your photos, and there seems to be some nicks.
As this is cosmetic damage, this is not covered under our warranty.

My request is that i buy a bumper red, will be a bumper red, not is a bumper paint of red color, with a white plastic part, only this.
Is very dificult to a premium case ?

Sorry but not is damaged, is only light usage of a case.
If spigen make a real nice bumper no a paint bumper will be another history.
Spigen say to me that not is possible to replace, ok, no problem, for me product spigen has a poor quality.
This post is to announce as will the SPIGEN cases in a few months, and customer know that is a bad purchase.
Seems like a cheap case to be painted. This is why I only use seidio cases. I know if it gets scratched, I won't have to worry about it changing to a different color. Dude your case looks ghetto and ratchet now lol throw that sucka in the dumpster

Dude, what exactly do you mean light usage? I have three slim armors in white, black and red and all of them are fine and have gone through quite a few drops and tumbles too.
And honestly, you're not making much of a case for youself befpre proclaiming that spigen cases are of bad quality. I've been using spigen cases since the iphone 5 and their cases seem to be worth the premium they charge in terms of durability and looks.

I also ordered a silver neo hybrid for my note 3, it looks pretty stylish but I will admit that it's not worth the money. The back cover's material feels cheap and isn't grippy at all, and the button covers are loose, they even make noise if I shake the phone.
It will probably protect the phone well in time, but it's definitely not worth the premium price.

Had mine for two months ...still perfect. Honestly wear and tear are going to happen. Besides, how are they going to make money if the product doesn't eventually deteriorate?
I have the silver one. Love it. But only use it when I go out. Always get compliments on it. Hell, a lot of people have asked me what phone I had because they thought the case was the phone.

Yes, please, upload your pictures !!!
The problem not is all color, black, blue and white after normal usage not is bad.
I know more red case and yellow with the same problem, may be more colors with the same problem, after several months of normal usage.
The issue here is not that fact that it has taken some wear, but the fact that it wore out and is turning a different color.
The problem is they didn't use colored plastic, but rather molded a bunch of white ones and colored them. I think if you're gonna spend 30 bucks on a case (and not go the $5 copy route), it shouldn't change color in just 3 or 4 months of regular use. He clearly didn't even drop it.
They need to mold the shells in different colored plastics, not paint white ones.
edit* I see OP had it for 6 months. My argument still stands - they shouldn't be painted.
Yes I agree that the plastic surround should be colored plastic and not just painted so even if it gets worn out, it will still be the same color not like Oreo!:laugh:
I was thinking of buying this case or the slim armor but I think I will just buy the knock off ones.
