Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Spigen Neo Hybrid Microphone holes don't line up

[felloffthetruck]

Just got in the Spigen Neo Hybrid and the bottom microphone holes don't line up with the phone.

If you have this case please let me know if yours line up OK?

The hole on the right might be close but the left one will completely cover up the microphone.

Had good luck with Spigen cases in the past but it's not looking to great this time around.

Yea, Verizon. Would that make a difference?

Hah. I have the same problem with my new Ringke Fusion case. Verizon as well. I noticed the left hole is way off and covers that microphone port. I was gonna email them this weekend and complain. I wonder if it's a Verizon specific thing.

I sent my Spigen Neo Hybrid back today and purchased a Tech21 Impactology Classic Mesh case. Looks like it'll work just fine.

I don't see how the microphone holes could be different on the Verizon version ?

Where did you get the Tech 21 case from?

Did they have the clear one also? Can you post a picture showing the holes on the bottom of the actual case? Thanks.

If you really like the case drilling a second hole is always an option.

Unfortunately this one was the only one.

Yea, that left hole is elongated and will work fine on the Verizon Note 4.
This is what we have to look for. Thanks for the picture.

That's what I did with my Caseology case. Drilled an 1/8" hole - It was pretty painless; it looks fine and the microphone works now!

Thanks, JasW
I did not even know there was a subforum for Note 4 Accessories.

I used a Dremel to elongate the microphone hole on my Neo-Hybrid and then snapped the metal bumper back on without modifying the hole. Everything is working fine now.

Now if I could just get the heart rate monitor to work

Yeah, I can't get mine to work either. This case is going in the trash one the UAG case comes out next week.
