Hi i am going to buy this nice phone in few days and i was wondering which case will be the best for me. I really like the original design of the phone but dont like this flip cases like s view ( in my opinion they are not comfortable for use correct me if im wrong). On the other side. There is the spigen ultra fit case but im not sure if it gives a good protection. So can you give an advice please?
Thank you!
I recommend the S-View Case and Back Case.
The quality is OK . I am quite satisfied with the case so far.

I have just purchased Holster case for my N3 and its really a nice experience to have this case on my phone....I got it from Amazon...so you can just check it out...its a bit pricey but cost worthy too...So I like this case
Everyone has their own opinion and preference when it comes to phone cases and the one I got was the Spigen Bounce http://www.spigen.com/galaxy-note-3-case-bounce.html . I had originally ordered this case because it is was inexpensive and one of the few that was actually available when I got my Note 3 on October 3. I got it so I wouldn't have to go "naked" while I waited for something better to come out. I'm so pleased with it that I see no reason to get a different one at this point. This case adds almost nothing to the thickness of the phone and I definitely feel like it's well protected. I also happen to think it looks nice.

if you want to keep it thin, this was the best case i could find to keep the "hand feel" of the phone.

I had the spigen slim armor and to tell you the truth, it isnt very slim.

I have a black Note 3 and have tried 3 cases.
The 1st one was the OEM S View Flip Case, which I returned without even putting it on the phone...
Next was Seidio Surface Case w/metal kickstand. Nice two piece case, but very hard to remove
from the phone once you have it on. Returned it
The 3rd case was the black Experience Case by Cruzerlite. This is a nice slim case and its what I'm using now.

Thank you for the replies! Now i'm going to decide between this 2 cases: spigen bounce and ringke slim

The absolute lightest is going to be a skin like this:

Not a load of protection. I use a similar one on my note 10.1, but then keep it in a sleeve as well.

I have owned a few tablets and this is by far the lightest flip cover I have ever found. It's just amazinn brah. I bought it in black and prolly from another seller, but it's the same brand. Just different colors. It is light as fwuak.

If you want a flip case, I like the Moku slim or ultra slim ones. My preference is the one with the plastic solid back that clips around the corners compared to the ones with tabs that it slips into. About $10 on Amzn.
There's a really good deal for Spigen cases for Galaxy S7 in this thread, so I was wondering which one do you recommend for black Galaxy S7? I really can't decide which one to go with.
Crystal/transparent protectors looks nice on a silver version, but mine is black, so I have no idea if they are visually appealing in that case. I would really not like to have a bulky S7 that wouldn't sit well in hand, but at the same time good protection would be great. So how does their protectors compare, which one do you recommend?

I have this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01B1I6J0E?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00 and I ordered a black onyx Galaxy S7. The case arrived yesterday but the phone itself won't be here until today or tomorrow. (UPS says today but they don't even have the package yet) The case is a nice thin one. I compare it to an Incipio case for my S5 and the Sigen case makes it look like the S7 is a thinner phone then the S5. So I'd say this case does not add much to the phone at all.
I went with the Artech 21 Vivid series:

Here are a few photos - lighting was bad but they should give you an idea of how the Spigen Case looks on the S7 Edge. Hope it helps[/ATTACH][/ATTACH][/ATTACH]
I purchased 2 cases for my Galaxy S7: Spigen [Thin Fit] Exact-Fit [Black] Premium Matte Finish Hard Case & SPIGEN Clear Crystal TPU. I have the black S7. I loved the clear case for my white Note 5 but do not like it for the black S7. The other case, premium matte hard case, is awesome! Adds little -> no bulk.

I just got my thin fit exact fit and agree looks very minimal just enough to protect back glass... hope I get my s7 early.. are you going to use a glass front protector?
Nah, I'm going to take my chances. I've never used the screen protection and all the years of had phones or PDA's.
I've heard about the RhinoShield CrashGuard Bumper Cases. Apparently, they can withstand 11ft drops on concrete. Has anyone had any experience with them in the past? Do they hold up? I am deathly afraid of cracking my S8 Plus but also find the idea of covering up my GORGEOUS phone with a case to be stupid. Thoughts?

I had this for my S6 and my Pixel. It is a great bumper case. I liked it more, as das as comfort on my s6 than the Pixel.

Do you recommend it for a balance of protection and minimalism?
I do. When I had it in my s6 I put a slick wrap skin on the back and a tempered glass on th the front.

I had one on my Note 5 with a Dbrand skin, they didn't make one for the S7 Edge or a Note 7. I pre-ordered and it's supposed to ship next week. Only downside I had is it takes a while for the buttons to break in because they are a little stiff.
I had/have on my s7. I also have the back and front protection. My s7 is still in perfect condition. it's taken a few normal drops and handled them with ease. I pre-ordered for my s8. I totally trust it and love the minimalist look with awesome protection. I even put one on my daughter's iphone 7. Flawless performance. I do change up cases occasionally, but always come back to my Rhinoshield band.
Am more interested in the screen protector from Rhino, and wondering if any tried it.. They were the only company that made full adhesive screen protector (glass) for pixel xl.. So wondering how will this end up to be.. No mention in the website if the screen protector is full adhesive or not.. I guess i will have to wait and see when i receive it..
My only issue with the rhinoshield bumpers in the past is that it adds too much extra width (it has to I guess to provide the protection it does).
Too much extra width? It's like a a mm or 2. I loved it on my s7. Survived some nasty drops. I don't know about this one with the more curved edges though. I got a spigen neo hybrid.
Really liked it on my Nexus 6! Was bummed they didn't make it for my Nexus 6P...
I ordered mine last week, it has been shipped today.
I also ordered a back black mate skin from dBrand.
I will post some pictures once everything arrive.
after reading this thread i went looking for vids... found one for the S6... amusing and durable...so i ordered for the s8.

Ordered. This bumper has been saving my gfs ip7+ on many occasions

Hello there!
I am looking for a leather case for my yet to be bought OnePlus 5. Not a flip case, but something like this Apple leather case.
Has anybody seen something like this for the OnePlus 5?
Thanks!
I am also looking for something like this. I loved my OnePlus 3T leather case, to bad that they discontinued it.
From noreve.com there will be such a case available in future.
Für example the OnePlus 3:
https://www.noreve.com/en/3/3386-oneplus-3-leather-cover.html
https://www.noreve.com/en/5/3556-oneplus-5-leather-cover.html
That looks promising! Thanks for sharing!
If you want leather, what I did was buy a small roll of real leather and then just sew it to fit the phone perfectly, like a sleeve. I just hand sewed it. You can put your thread color to contrast with the leather, or to match it. Then you can also cut a small hole for the notification slider or they things (like the notification light).
I've tried many cases, but none are quite as good as just a perfectly fitting leather sleeve.
Almost no added bulk. Plus it cleans your screen every time you take it in and out.
And you can just scrunch the leather back into your pocket when you are using the phone.

I ordered 2 @ Aliexpress. One from MOFi and one from KEZiHome. I hope they are not the greatest crap. I think they will be ok until something better is available :laugh:
@Walhalla, once you get them, please post back a few impressions.
Thanks!

I have both, KEZiHOME is from genuine leather, MOFi is not. The first one looks more luxurious than the mofi one.

How tight do they fit? Is there a difference in fitting?
How long did shipping take?

Works fine for the OP5 as well. Really nice soft leather feel to it and as you mention, easy to just scrunch up in the pocket.
This looks similar but it won't be real leather:

I ordered one btw! But from a different store. Will update once received on Feb 15-March 10. Ordered the Alcantara fabric case and calf leather case for OnePlus 5t and iPhone X.
Sorry guys I totally forgot to post the pictures I shot.
Here you go: Gallery
To be honest, I never used them, because I didn't liked them.
MOFi - The color is more gray than black and the texture is very smooth and somehow slippery. The in hand feel is definetly not leather. Opticaly the thick edges were not eye-pleasing.
KEZiHome - Nice textured feeling. I never had the feeling that the device would slip out of my hand, but I didn't liked the color in person. Another bummer was that it was very hard to use the alert slider and the volume buttons.
Too bad that OnePlus canceled the leather case after the OnePlus 3T. I f**** loved that case.
