What's The Best Thin/Mimimalist Case For Note8?

[Nickerz]

I have a good thick case I like (Zizo Bolt) but I'm looking for a super thin case that isn't slippery like my Note8 is when naked. But I have to say...when I take my Note8 out of the case to clean it...it feels and looks AWESOME but I definitely couldn't keep like this everyday without risking major damage to it. I know some damage can be done with a thin case too but still looking for something I can put on where it will have some protection but still feel naked...

So what's the best slimmest case out there? I've heard good things about the Spigen Thin Fit case and the Basstop Mimimalist case. Both for $9.99...

This one by Meidu looks nice too...

I have a Ringke clear case with black bumper. Slim and very protective at the same time. Looks smooth but surprisingly has a grip to it.

Here is photo of it before I took the wrapper off.

Wow that one by Pitaka looks really nice but too expensive for me. Definitely looks nice though!

Spigen thin fit is the best IMO. I have it black and its like nothings there. Also the Alcantra is a good one. I swap between the two.

Elago on Amazon.

The Infereecs is a nice one too and also around a tenner

You can get one of these Sandstone finish thin cases from eBay or the Bear Motion or Imak Cowboy case which is similar.

It does not provide any drop protection but gives a very minimalistic grippy feeling.

The VRS Design case I have is very slim/thin IMO and also tempered glass screen protector friendly, unlike the Spigen cases!

Worth bearing in mind IMO if you're wanting to cover the screen!

Can't go wrong with spigen thin fit

It has a bit plastic feel to it though.
I would like a bezel surround type case so that the isn't to slippy and have a minimum drop protection

Look at the Spigen NeoHybrid Crystal case. . It has a bumper around a thin clear case. The case itself is slick, but the bumper is more grippy. You can select from a few colors for the bumper. Mine is Orchid Grey which perfectly matches the color of my phone. I am sure there are more protective cases available, but there probably isn't another case that will show off the beauty of your phone almost like going naked.

This is what I have but mine is totally clear. Love it. Had good drop protection too. My phone is orchid grey, and its dull, insipid loveliness shows right through (butthurt remark because I miss my lovely blue Samsung 7).

If your Spigen case is entirely clear, you have the Spigen Crystal case, not the NeoHybrid Crystal case. What makes the latter hybrid is it combines a bumper around the sides with a clear case similar to what you have. The difference is that your clear case has built in heavier corner protection without a bumper, whereas the clear case on the NeoHybrid doesn't. Instead, it gets its corner and additional side protection from the bumper surrounding it.

They are both great cases. They are inexpensive enough that I bought both. However, because of the additional protection I use the NeoHybrid Crystal more.

I have the Spigen Neo Hybrid Crystal case. This is what I ordered. I have a bumper that's very unobtrusive.

It's the alcantera case slippery?

Not at all. Feels great in the hand.

I have the tech 21 tactical and it's been a good case thus far. Not quite as thin as some of the others mentioned but definitely not thick by any means. Offers good protection without the bulk.
I'm also contemplating the rhinoshield crash guard and using a clear "skin" for the back to protect from scratches. Just haven't pulled the trigger on that setup yet.
