Note 4 What case you going for?

Just got my crystal clear case. Snug fit, slim and show my black sexy note 4 :)
I'll be returning the s-view. It's nice but doesn't provide protection from drop.
That's the case I'm using at the moment, at least until I receive my Spigen Tough Armor case! I'll make my decision on which to actively use after I've spent time with both but I am liking the Ringke Fusion more-so than I previously believed I would!
 
You have Verizon. They are the only idiots that decided to have their mic in a different spot...
 
Well just not to make this seem like a VzW decision made in a vacuum or even a VzW decision about the mic hole.....

All the carriers support different base line technologies. They all have to be backwards compatible with technologies they have supported that are still active in some territories and they own different frequency blocks in different territories. It is likely the technology piece that forces different radio trays into the N4 by carrier. That also probably means the trace lines between the radio tray and some antennas are different for any antenna not actually mounted somehow to the radio tray. While this is only my opinion and a guess, I would guess it is that difference that forced the VzW N4 to have a different location for the left side mic and even a tunnel or funnel that funnels your voice up to a mic that is actually to some extent set back from the edge of the housing.
 
Following up on my 'anti-Spigen' post from yesterday (sorry if I offended anyone - was just going through my reasoning on case selection), a buddy of mine ordered the Spigen Strong Flex Capsule case as a temporary case for his Verizon phone. He called me after he picked up his phone from BB (still waiting on my email to get phone from Braintree, MA BB) and he sounded very muffled. Same problem as noted by others - the mic hole for the VZ version phone is covered up. Once he took that case off, he sounded fine.
 
I have spigen slim. In general OK. Very slippery, the kickstand is garbage. I think it'd take a fall well. The lip over the screen isn't huge but would be OK for falls on flat surfaces. Uneven, not so much, likely. .
 
I ended up with one from Tech21 after the Spigen debacle.

Hey is that one of those Tech21 mesh deals? How do you like it? I just did not know what to think of it on the rack. I do give them credit for the way they designed their retail packaging. You can get into the box and get a much better look at the mesh stuff.

I want this one but it doesn't ship until Monday. They only offer free ground shipping from California and that's gonna take too long coming to DC. I'm hoping Amazon will have it on Monday and offer prime shipping.
 
UAG shipped early for me! I received it today (wasn't suppose to ship until 10/27). It's more compact than I thought it would be.
 
My phone is vzw note 4 and I bought a spigen, holes did not line up. After some drilling... now they do lol. Anyone have links to VZW note 4 case that do not require drilling? The vzw accessories are limited.
