Has anyone noticed wearing marks on the bumper on the Neo Hybrid case? Mines starting to get really bad. I assume from being in a pocket and going in and out. I will be contacting Spigen soon.

haven't had any issues here. Had it for 2 weeks and is always in and out of my pocket. I got the gold version
Mines starting to bowl out of shape.

Is that a white mark? Mine broke in about a week of use so it returned it and I couldn't be happier. Spigen needs to get some better QC before I buy another case form them. Their plastic screen protectors are excellent, but their cases are hit and miss :/

Yeah it's white, like the top coating is rubbing off and exposing the bare plastic below

That happened on my Note 3's Neo Hybrid after 7 months not a week or two. I would contact them because that's terrible quality for such a short time.
I agree!
The bumper on my Neo Hybrid is starting to pull away from the case shell, right by the power/volume buttons. I don't abuse the case or phone all all. I emailed them but doubt they will do much about it.

I have the Seidio Active with kickstand and holster. I really like the way it feels in the hand the protection that it offers. I am having one issue and I don't know if there is a solution to it. The soft inner case is one heck of a dust and pet hair magnet. Is there anything that can be put on it that can reduce to amount of dust it attracts?
I have the same case, minus kickstand.
The neverending complaint of silicon jackets is that they collect and hold on to lint, dust, grime, so on. I'm sure you could experiment and find something that could be sprayed on such as a spray on clear coat, but being flexible I don't think it would stay. The best advice I can offer, and it's not going to be of much help, is to just get used to it. I painted the snap on plastic piece when I was refinishing a couple firearms and had extra paint mixed up. Turned out better then I though and not the colored case drawls the eye and you don't notice the lint.

I am sure that there are a lot of people with a lot of different solutions. I found one that a friend mentioned and it seems to be working for me. I used some glass wax on the silicon and so far so good.

I've nver even heard of glass wax. Is it wax for glass? Seems kinda counter intuitive, maybe just called that because its clear?
I don't know if it is different from other wax but yes it is for glass. I have used it for a while now on touchscreens as well as my glasses. It reduces noticable smudges and fingerprints..
Like this?

I think it is a different brand but yes it is like that.
My 2nd mod. Couldnt find a bumper that was super thin so I sorta just made my own. My main purpuse is to protect the sides. My screen already has tempered glass and the battery cover is great for grip and didn't want to cover it with a case.
Bought this from ebay. Its a dark smoke color but in the pictures it looks black.

Dremmeled out the center
Made the lines as straight as I can. And use an exacto to cut off the excess. And used a nail file to smooth the edges out as much as possible.
Final product. Not as smooth as I wanted but no time anymore for tonight.
Front with Tempered glass
I think I may buy another and make a trim around the camera to protect it when it's on its back. Just glue it on the battery cover so it's permanent.

Pretty impressive. I actually use a Super clear piece of Scotch tape to cover the lower portion of the flash area since that's all that touches. Works great and easily replaced.

I've just got the Roxfit Slimline Book Case from Amazon today, alas, no phone as yet! Its cheaper than the official Sony case, I paid £13.50, but is well made with a quality feel to it. Obviously I cant comment on fit or durability but Ive always had my phones in cases and this is one of the more premium feeling cases ive owned. Well worth the money based on its build quality.
Inside the front cover the material has a soft rubbery feel that grips onto the screen whilst closed to stop it moving around (roughly tested with my iphone 5 in the housing). The back of the case also folds away, similar to the official case so the phone can be placed in the charging dock. The outer material is similar to the apple iPad cover. The clear plastic shell that holds the phone has a thin foam layer in to absorb any shock and prevent any scratches on the rear glass panel.
I've still got a week wait for my phone before I can test it thoroughly.

I apologise for the size of the images and rotation!
Hello fellas! Well, I've got the Samsung A5, with a silicone cover to protect it, but I've been thinking about getting a flip cover case like the one offered by Samsung on its official site, which works with the S-View feature (showing the camera and some info on the small window).

This is the flip cover: http://www.samsung.com/es/consumer/mobile-devices/accessories/case/EF-CA500BWEGWW
Now, I've seen the phone attaches to the case with... glue? WTF! Is it safe' It looks weak for me, and I'm scared the phone may fall because the "glue" pad is not storng enough. Does anyoe use this cover? How is it?
Thanks!
Hi, i use this cover for months now, the glue is strong enough, phone looks very nice on it, the case is safe, mine phone fall down in several times and cases do the job, protect my phone and is still on it, is ok trust me
Hey, it is an original one cover.
Do you think they would be crazy to do a cover allowing the phone to fall?
Yes is original cover
I'm worried about taking phone off of it... seriously
once or twice you probably could take the phone off of it ... if you do it more often it would probably not stick well again
I bought the original flip cover Black A5 2016
EF-WA510PBEGWW
Warning this this is not black but dark blue, and not just darkblue, but it also has a mother of pearl, oil on water, sheen on it.
Still I like the cover and kept it.
this one fits perfectly and keeps that premium look that this smartphone has.
already dropped it once with EF-WA510PBEGWW from hip height, it fell on a corner and sprang out the booklet cover and landed on its glass, luckily only minor scratch on the edge
So I decided to try out this new Incipio case called the Area. I went with the frosted version because it's a cool contrast for the black phone, although I like the case so much I might go and try out the black version of it as well!

So when I first got the case, it was a little beefier than I thought from the pictures on Amazon...but it's not a bad thing. The corners are reinforced so that it's definitely protective if it falls. I actually dropped it off my counter in the bathroom and it landed on the floor and protected it fine! (I never drop my phones, so I was lucky I had a beefier case on it this time!!)
The buttons are awesome! They aren't shaped like buttons, but rather, each button has a little raised mark of what it does. The sides of the case are completely flat, but once you're near a button, you feel the outline of it's shape. And on top of it, they're really easy to press, which is hard to find in a gel/tpu case like this.
The frost matte back feels cool, and all of the cutouts are shaped perfectly.
I've got the spigen screen protector on it that wraps around the curve of the device, and there's no issue with this case pulling it up on mine, so that's another plus.
All in all, this is an awesome case for the price.

This case isn't on Incipio website. I believe it's a bit of branding trickery. I ordered one anyways to check it out.
