Hey guys,
I'm looking for a slim fit case and I currently use the incipio feather cases which I am in love with but I want a white one which they don't offer. I also don't want it to have the whole on the top of the case which is a cutout meant for the Korean phone antenna version, which is why I don't want the sgp ultra thin cases or the rearth ringke slim cases. Anyone know one that fits these categories? I know I'm being picky but I really like the way the white ultra thin cases look!

So I'm not a big case person but I found a light slim case that you can hardly tell and I love it so much thought I'd share it . Let me know what you got or going to get!

Otterbox Commuter -- its a thin, solid case, which I like.. and was only ~$26, which I also like.
otter box as well
I have a Incipio Feather case coming in soon. I tend to be pretty responsible (keeping my fingers crossed) with my phones and I like that the case helps avoid scratches without adding too much size.
I got the Otter Commuter as well.

Haha yep. Same here.
Otterbox commuter. I wanted a sleek metal case but was concerned about interference.
Really pleased with the otterbox, they have made major improvements since the last time I saw one a couple years ago. Slides easily in/out of pockets.
Awesome simple case and VERY cheap!

Man I wish I had seen that Neo Hybrid before I ordered my Cygnett UrbanShield Carbon Fiber Case.
I just ordered the Spigen Ultra Air case from Amazon. Looks very nice and not bulky.
cruizer lite here
i have three cases, all made by spgen. Neo Hybrid, Slim Armor and an Ultra Fit (got this one free).
I'll most likely go with the Neo Hybrid but we'll see how it fits and if it offers enough protection
I currently have a Rearth Ringke Slim (Black). I ordered the Aero UAG case and waiting on that. That is a cool looking case. I originally had ordered the Spigen in Slate Blue, but after seeing the UAG, I cancelled the order (about $30 with shipping from imarine.com)
That thing looks like it's made to be taken through combat... good grief. I don't want my phone to remind me of MIL-Crates though had enough of that over there...
SPG Neo Hybrid blk/yellow. Awesome little case keeps it very slim and gives good grip for such a thin phone.
Currently have the Otterbox Commuter. I normally use the Defender series but I couldn't find one local. Might get a Defender down the road. The Commuter is slim, but slick.
There really isn't much selection out there right now. Wondering what upcoming cases you guys are anticipating announced or not. I personally, am hoping that someone puts out a sview knock off that is more practical, and a bit cheaper.
$50 is my absolute limit for a case.
Interested to see what cases you guys, are looking forward too.
I wish I could get GodyGlove hybrid case. This case saved my Note 2 from falling.
But now I have to settle with Tech21 for now.
UAG Scout with the dot/dash pattern
Body Glove is usually good about having cases out at launches but I'm sure they will release a Fusion case with stand soon I hope. I also love Speck slim clear cases and again no idea why they don't have one out at launch.

A high quality genuine leather wallet case from Spigen, with a detachable urethane case to support the driving mode.
Waiting on the Seidio Active Combo.
Here's a good looking one.

With Note II I had the original flip case and I was very happy with it. Again now with Note III I seem to like wallet flip case most.
Ideally I'd love something like wallet flip case with no logo in the outer part and made of high quality leather.

I am torn between these 2 cases from Spigen
From what i have read the Slim Armour offers more protection and a bit more bulk however the Neo Hybrid is obviously slimmer and looks better, although i suppose the looks go on personal preference
Just wondering if anyone has any of these and would you recommend them?
I would recommend both cases. I prefer the slim armor though since I've dropped every phone I've ever owned multiple times. It is more protective, buttons aren't loose and the overall fit is tighter. Like a perfect glove. I still use my Neo though. I love the look and use it on quick trips to store etc.
I had a new hybrid before. And it's a nice case however, the plastic ring around the outside was pretty flexible and it eventually broke. So I ordered a UAG case for my note 3.
I also recommend both cases. I have the white slim armor and I have 2 neo hybrids. A satin silver and a champagne gold. Both are great cases but I'd trust my Slim Armor more to take a fall. The white Slim Armor is $12.99 in the US if I'm not mistaken

Wonder if slim armor is smaller than the bounce...
I bought and received the Slim Armor case from Spigen in Slate color and man, this is a quality case. It fits snugly and perfectly. Everything is flawless. This is probably the nicest case I've ever had.
It does add some bulk to the phone but it's not a whole lot.

I measured mine and it was 13mm. This case definitely adds some bulk to the phone. Holding just the phone naked is ok, but it is not as comfortable with the case on for me.
Just a question : do you have some signal loss with the case put on the phone (either wifi or gsm) : how many DB (decibel) do you lose on the signal while putting it ?
My neo hybrid came in last night and boy is this case slippery.
Don't think I'm going to use this case for over a week.

Slim armour
I would suggest the slim armour one as this is the case I have been using from last 6 months and believe me it has never showed me any signs of worries at all..It is very finely gripped on the phone...and creates no issue of the signals and works really very fine....I dont have any hard experiences with Neo hybrid...so cant say some wrong about it..but slim armour is one of my favorites and I would highly recommend this one...!!!!
From my personal experience of playing around with both cases on a friend's note 3 I'd say the slim amour is your best bet for everyday protection with no worries. ....The neo looks better but doesn't fit as snug and imo it's more of a eye candy case yea it looks great but is slippery and almost has zero lip around the screen..If you get both I'd only use the neo when at home or maybe a night out to eat ..something along those lines...Both are great but slim Armour for protection with some added bulk or neo for good looks slim feel but you sacrifice that extra piece of mind.

I like my neo hybrid.
I took a look at the slim armour and I dont really like how it looks.
The neo hybrid is enough protection for me. It doesn't add bulk. Most importantly to me it looks like there is no case at all (in slate at least)
There is probably a 1mm lip on the screen. That might be a problem for you but I like the fact that the lip isn't too high. Just gets in the way of using the phone.
I don't find it any more slippery than no case. And my case fits pretty dam snug.
I would recommend both cases. Neo Hybrid looks better and doesn't add bulky. Slim Armor fits much better with the phone and the quality/price is better than Neo Hybrid

I have the Spigen Slim Armor in Slate and the Neo Hybrid in Champagne. I love both the slim armor more. However I'll keep both the slim armor for best protection while looking premium and the neo for when going to office conference or something formal and extravagant because it adds more pinaché. The Neo is way slimmer than Slim. Neo barely adds and bulk to back and slight mm to side. So if you're wanting slimmer profile go neo. However beware the back holds on to your oily finger prints.

I ordered both of them and I would recommend the slim armor over the neo hybrid. They both are pleasing to the eye, granted the neo hybrid looks a bit nicer but the build quality was suspect imo. The plastic frame and super cheap buttons were a recipe for failure on a "legitimate" drop. But the slim armor has more protection a little more weight but between that and the EXCELLENT tactility of the buttons make it the ultimate case for the Note 3 imo and looks just as nice

Slim Armour with ZeroLemon!
Well I am experimenting again! Slim Armour with integrated ZeroLemon 10A battery! Watch this space!
I'm trying to figure out which case to buy. I bought two spegin cases. The slim armor I liked in terms of protection, but I hated the buttons on the side and how slippery it is. Also, the kickstand seemed low quality. The other one is just not offering the protection I need. I'm in a toss up between these two. Let me know what you think. I need enough protection to keep it safe, but not bulky.

If you're looking for not bulky. Look into ringke slim black or max.
Ringke slim, sf black.
It's got a great profile and full case protection against scratches. Might not be the best case to protect the phone from high drops though.
Cheap and not to bulky MOKO

Cruzerlite! Their cases are thin and offer great protection. You can YouTube videos of drop tests with the nexus 5 having the Cruzerlite case on it. It's a beast! They also feel great in hand.
Cruzerlite or TUDIA those are my two favorites , both are thin TPU cases and very durable!
Tried both the Spigen Ultra Fit and Neo Hybrid and did not like the extra bulk as its wide enough already. Bought a Dbrand skin for the back only and its perfect. Adds just enough texture so its not slippery but does not add any size to the specifically in width.

agree totally with you. i ended up with just a Skinomi matte skin. if an ultra slim clear or smoke case comes out which gives some grip but keeps the looks especially the visual of the Midnight blue back and metal sides i might reconsider. until then i'll be ultra careful!
If you're looking for a case without bulk, then get the Ringke SLIM SF Black. More grip and adds no bulk.
Although, Ultra Hybrid doesn't add any bulk very minimal in my opinion.

A tacky feeling, clear skin would be very nice.
I ran the Ringke Slim SF black for 2 days. Then my Spigen Slim Armor arrived. To be honest, the Spigen isn't impressing me that much. It makes the device feel bulky and it doesn't provide the grip the Ringke did. I might return it and get a different case with kickstand.

Spigen cases have let me down, I had both the ultra hybrid and slim armor and didn't like either one. I have a ringke fusion which I like, and I have a pure gear slim on the way.
I have one of these on order......unfortunately, it won't be in stock until Dec 24th. It comes in a bunch of colors and for 10 bucks.......it's a deal!!!!

I've got the Moko (2 of them), a Supcase on order, and just got the CF version of the Caseology off Amazon. All of them combined were still cheaper than walking into a Apple store and getting a cheap TPU case. That carbon fiber Caseology looks pretty nice in the pics.
I'm considering the Ringke Hybrid or Max, which get a lot of attention around here. The Urban Armor Gear looks good to me as well, but I haven't seen much about it. Anyone try the UAG case?
I really liked uag when I had it on my note 2. Was using their orange variant, wish that was available for the n6
