Atmosphere case has lot of reviews for S4. It should work for S5 even better with visible back texture.

Has anyone had any trouble with the otterbox defender headphone jack? The rubber on mine that covers the headphone jack is getting loose from it being push out all the time

Just picked up the Tech 21 clear case today at Best Buy and it's my favorite case so far. I have about 7-8 different S5 cases and this Tech 21 just feels good. Here are a couple pictures of the Tech 21 next to the Ice flavored UAG case.

Also put my Zagg Glass on and there is one tiny speck of dust under it. :'(
Should have had the Best Buy counter monkeys install it.

How do you like the Tech 21 compared to the UAG case?

I love the way the Tech21 looks in blue but I'm not the biggest fan of the huge opening by the mic and USB port.

It's actually larger then the UAG and quite a bit more slippery. The Tech 21 just feels good in my hand. After a couple of days use my story might change.

And the hinge part of the charger port is mighty close to the case. Don't want to put any extra stress on that flimsy charge port hinge.

Just replaced my incipio case with a spigen neo hybrid. I love the spigen. The buttons built into the case are awesome. But it does make it a little wider and Its not very grippy.

This is the one I'm sporting and I -really- like this case. The edges are smooth, raised front so the glass doesn't sit directly down. Dimpled back keeps the S5 aesthetic. It's super light and the rubbery finish gives a great grip in the hand. No issues with the charging port or headphone plug. IR blaster still works fine. Highly recommend it if you want a "feather" case. I used the same case line on my Galaxy Note and my S4 and they've definitely made some improvements with this version.

are you having any issues with the phone popping out at the corners? Currently have that issue with my Incipio feather shine and i hate it. Looking at the slim armor or the neo hybrid

thank you!
it looks great!
like an OEM fitment!
curious.. is the case "slick" like the plastic of the actual phone back or is it a smidge grippier?

 

[AZwldcats]

I absolutely love this case. I usually go through a case a month. But the real wood really classes up the phone. WIll be keeping a while!

I'd say it's noticeably, but not profoundly, more grippy than the black/gray back. It has a rubbery matte finish on it but it's not as sticky as something like the best buy platinum or seido surface Soft touch finish. It's a good balance where it resist finger prints pretty well but is still no problem to hang on to. I find it a better grip than the bare phone in my hand, it also puts that rubbery finish over the chrome which was always the slippery part of the phone for me.
