I use a bumber case on my Note 3 - Galaxy Note 3 Accessories

I retired my neo hybrid case, and went with a old fashion bumber case, It really gets the job done for me but there is cons of having a bumber case then a full protection one

What case do you have?

So I'm not a big case person but I found a light slim case that you can hardly tell and I love it so much thought I'd share it . Let me know what you got or going to get!

Otterbox Commuter -- its a thin, solid case, which I like.. and was only ~$26, which I also like.
otter box as well
I have a Incipio Feather case coming in soon. I tend to be pretty responsible (keeping my fingers crossed) with my phones and I like that the case helps avoid scratches without adding too much size.
I got the Otter Commuter as well.

Haha yep. Same here.
Otterbox commuter. I wanted a sleek metal case but was concerned about interference.
Really pleased with the otterbox, they have made major improvements since the last time I saw one a couple years ago. Slides easily in/out of pockets.
Awesome simple case and VERY cheap!

Man I wish I had seen that Neo Hybrid before I ordered my Cygnett UrbanShield Carbon Fiber Case.
I just ordered the Spigen Ultra Air case from Amazon. Looks very nice and not bulky.
cruizer lite here
i have three cases, all made by spgen. Neo Hybrid, Slim Armor and an Ultra Fit (got this one free).
I'll most likely go with the Neo Hybrid but we'll see how it fits and if it offers enough protection
I currently have a Rearth Ringke Slim (Black). I ordered the Aero UAG case and waiting on that. That is a cool looking case. I originally had ordered the Spigen in Slate Blue, but after seeing the UAG, I cancelled the order (about $30 with shipping from imarine.com)
That thing looks like it's made to be taken through combat... good grief. I don't want my phone to remind me of MIL-Crates though had enough of that over there...
SPG Neo Hybrid blk/yellow. Awesome little case keeps it very slim and gives good grip for such a thin phone.
Currently have the Otterbox Commuter. I normally use the Defender series but I couldn't find one local. Might get a Defender down the road. The Commuter is slim, but slick.

Spigen Bounce Case

Just ordered this off Amazon for $10 and I have to say that this is an amazing case. The fit and feel is second to none and I like the angled corners of the case. It has a nice rubberized finish and fingerprints don't show. I'm getting used to the design on the back...I wasn't a fan at first. I think anyone would be happy to have this in their case line-up.

I like it as well...I bought it and the Glas.TR screen protector. Thoroughly pleased with both products!

Its really lukin very impressive and nice one... you got this TR glass with the case inclusive or you bought it separately...
i also just bought it recently its probably my favorite case i dont know why. i have the slim armour and neo hybrid but i prefer this one for some odd reason.

bought both off of amazon.
I wonder which one is heavier bounce case vs ultra slim fit case ?
That looks impressive ... but not as well as NEO one (In my mind)

I have the bounce case and its great. Its not to thick, provides enough protection and covers the volume and power buttons. Works great and with a good price.
i'm digging this case too. I only dropped this phone while I was running, it slid on the front of the phone for 5 feet and didn't get a scratch or crack.
I dropped this phone a few times with this case. No damage. The case is a typical tpu case but with a nice design and pattern.

What is the best case for the T-Mobile Galaxy Note 3?

I have tried a cheap case on ebay that was alright, then i bought the spigen case (I forgot which one, but it has two parts, a bezel and the actually base) and it was horrible. So i am looking a for a good case that looks good and feels good. I also have a screen protector if that helps, i want one easy to pull out when i need to change the battery, and one with a big enough port cut out for 3rd party cables because the spigen one couldn't find any of my cables or headphones.
look no further my Friend . What I did BEFORE buying note was , I bought TemperedGlass screen protector ( I don't have link ) then I bought Skin/Case

Then I bought this pouch so I don't carry my phone in the pocket

When I received everything then I ordered note .
The first one case/skin is THE BEST . It ads virtually no bulk to the phone whatsoever , buttons are protected , all openings are there , and it keeps no fingerprints at all . The portition around glass is little raised so if you put the phone glass down it's fine .
Pouch has very soft lining inside , it's build tough and my note fits in it with the skin/case on .
good luck
Trust me, putting a case on won't help much. You should feel the phone. It's not slippery at all, very compact. You just need a temper glass protection on the display, that's all.

Indeed. Had my Spigen Neo Hybrid for 2.5 years until now. It once saved my phone. I've put by accident the load of 1.5 tons on the phone with the case. Had tempered glass on it an this was the only thing that cracked. My note 3 is as good as new after series of really deep drops and lots of brutal treatment that happens during work. The neo hybrid is extremely tough though it's not turning the phone into a brick.

UAG forever (better than spigen)

best rugged case?

i do construction and just got the note 8 . looking for the best heavy duty/rugged case
i wanted the otterbox but read really bad things about it so i dont think ill get that
i . was looking at the spiegen tough armor its pretty cheap looks good and seems good
any suggestions?
So Here is my 2 cents.... The Tough Armor is a great choice BUT... only works well with a small number of CASE FRIENDLY screen protectors.... I am currently rocking the SAMSUNG BRANDED RUGGED CASE and I LOVE IT! Tough Armor will probably provide a little better DROP PROTECTION ( I'm guessing because of the 2 layered protection) but the Samsung seems tough enough and works with a FULL SCREEN PROTECTION FILM PROTECTOR, and LOOKS GREAT TO ME.
Ghostek Nautical... hands down thee best. I've dropped this thing from atleast 15 feet up and not even a scratch on the bumper! Also waterproof to 20 foot down.
I have the Urban Armor Gear Monarch, I like this over the Ghostek, a little more $$ but definitely worth it. I have a case friendly screen protector film on it too.
Second on the Urban Armor Gear it's a great case from my experience from them. I however am rocking a clear Spigen case.
Supcase Unicorn Beetle Pro
It is a very good price and good feeling.
Protects and feels better than the otterbox, lasts longer than the otterbox, protects better than the otterbox, has a belt clip, has a screen protector unlike the otterbox, WAY less money than the $70 otterbox, Wireless charging and NFC work through it, It is decently slim and easy to fit in mounts.
I have this case and have dropped my phone 9+ times and it sounded very soft when it dropped so it was good protection apparently
Around $7 to $12.

Spigen ultra hybrid vs liquid crystal

I have ordered the s9 + in lilac purple and I can't decide which case would be better as I want to show the colour but still have good protection and not add bulk.
I had the ultra before on my s8 and found it a bit bulky and took away the slim slick look to the phone. Not had the liquid crystal before is it slimmer? Does it give it protection?
Spigen has been my go to brand for covers for a while. I just got the S9 yesterday, and decided for the Tech 21 clear one at the T-Mobile store. A bit more expensive, but seems to be a good option.
I have had the Spigen liquid crystal on my last 3 phones. Galaxy s7, s8, and now S9. Had excellent luck with them. Thin, cheap, cool looking, protect well. Can't beat it for 15 bucks.
Ultra hybrid :good:
Wanted more protection and didn’t like the bubbles in the corners of the clear liquid crystal.
Tech 21 is good but overpriced specially at tmo. Made the mistake a couple yrs ago with an iPhone and got that. When switched to sammy again chose spigen and never looked back. Rocking a tough armor now.
I used the ultra hybrid on my S7 and dropped that puppy so many times without any damage to the phone. I even tripped on cement stairs and fell on my butt with the phone in my pocket and the phone was fine! The case had a huge gouge in it, however.
I just received the ultra hybrid today for my s9 and it fits and looks amazing. Buuuut...I'm still scared. This phone seems so delicate. Ugh. But it's a dream to use.
Sidenote: I left the TMO store with the tech 21 Evo check case just so it didn't go naked until the Spigen arrived. I really do like the tech case, it's super sturdy with good cushion around the sides but the TPU back seems so flimsy in comparison. I don't want to find out the hard way which one works better. Haha.
The ultra hybrid will work with screen protectors like the Whitestone Dome glass. The liquid crystal isn't compatible
i just got the Spigen Air Skin (link) and it is awesome!! It does not even look like there is a case on the phone. My only complaint is that the buttons are a little tougher to feel since the case is about as thick as the buttons are tall. But after a couple days with it, i am totally used to it.
now...i doubt this case has much in the way of drop protection...but it definitely covers everything but the front glass...which is what i wanted. now i don't have to be so gentle when setting my phone down. I also like the idea of keeping the black metal from getting scratched up.
