Welp. I ordered my case, the day after I ordered my phone.

FedEx dropped off the case today. Still Waiting on the phone. Otterbox Defender with holster



I wonder if that area inside the case that doesn't have padding is where teh inductive charging unit is located in the phone.

I'm waiting on iFixIt to do a teardown on these phones.

THIS Looks thicker than the otter box for the note 4

Can't say but I did compare the Otterbox for the Note 5 and Note2 and the Note 2 is actually thicker while the Note5 is slightly longer. Width is about the same. The Note2 OB will fit in the holster but BARELY clips in. The Note5 is too long to fit in the Note2 holster.

Any issues with the Otterbox screen protector? using the S-Pen or finger? I had one on my Glaxy TAB and didnt like it. always felt like i had to push harder than I needed to.

Are tempered glass screen protectors worth getting?

I think they are, they are easier to put on straight without bubbles at least in my experience and they feel better, I've had one on my Note 4 for like 10 months and it only has a couple of small scratches.

I was actually considering the same exact two except for the gold instead of mint~

Just a heads up these cases are 12.99 on eBay and the shipping is free, if you have prime with Amazon then it is better to get it on Amazon because of the free 2 day shipping, but if you don't want to pay shipping eBay is free,plus it's the same seller Spigen.

I decided to go to the Verizon store and pick up these items since Sprint had none available in store. I also now have 3 regular screen protectors and waiting on a cheap case to arrive.

Re: First case arrived: Spigen thin fit (+ pics)

Hi all,

So with very device I order I always stock up on no less than 2-3 cases for different needs, light scratch protection, bumper level medium protection and a case for trips where I'll use something like a neo hybrid.

Today the first of three arrived, the thin fit. As usual Spigen does not disappoint and this is another great feeling high quality slim fit case.

An interesting upgrade to this line is it now offers full protection around all sides of the phone where it used to have an open bottom.

Here are a few pics to give you something to look at while we wait for the 21st.

Does this case have a lip to protect the screen if you put the phone upside down? I just ordered it. Perhaps I should have waited to order it, haha.
