This case isn't for everyone but I enjoy the nice look of a "bumper style case". The case isn't what I would normally call a bumper case but its still nice for $7. The buttons have an alright feel (they can get a little spongey) and the protection is what you would expect from a bumper. The bumper makes my phone larger than the Spigen Ultra Hybrid which is surprising considering that its just a bumper and the Spigen is a full case. The design could have been better by making it smaller. The charging port is a fair size and will fit the stock cable just fine with a very minimal bulge. The headphone cut out is also on the smaller side but it should fit most headphones. Overall its a decent case for the money, and if you want a bumper I'm sure you will enjoy it.

Thanks I'll fix the videos when I get home today. I'm waiting in a class to start currently so I can't change them until its over.
OP Updated Nillkin bumper added
I'm looking to buy a new case to replace the official bumper case. However I can't decide between ringke fusion, spigen ultra hybrid and tech21 impact frame. Also I want to have a skin, so the case needs to have enough room for that.
Thanks
Can anyone recommend a case that doesn't add much bulk to the phone but will offer good protection from drops?
Any advice?
Try out the Pitaki Carbon Fiber case. It's a little pricey but offers real carbon fiber and adequate protection without any bulk.

if u are looking for thin case, tbh all thin cases aren't good for drops, will minor drops are still ok. if it is high quality.
I recommend pitaka's thin, minimalistic case.

Works with tough armor and rhino bumper but had best fit with the liquid air one.
What's the difference?
spigen marked armor vs rugged armor
Thanks in advance,
The rugged armor is well, more rugged and bulkier. Thus a little more protection. Marked armor is a nice case but offers little protection of the screen and camera. They pretty much sit flush ( i.e. no lip ) with the edge.

The images on Amazon looks like the complete opposite but I will take your word for it.

Ah man, no no no, I'm sorry! I got the rugged armor confused with the spigen slim armor case. Sorry about that man. Can't comment on the rugged armor, but the Marked armor provides little screen and camera protection.
Here is a link to a Rugged armor review.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...s/spigen-rugged-armor-huawei-p20-pro-t3777178
Sorry again.
Been following this as well and personally always regarded the rugged armor as nice but something that has grown into a generic Spigen design that gets scaled/cut to fit the receiving phone.
The marked armor for the P20 series looks like its a redesign or extension of the old rugged style for vertical running camera setups and also has a bit of a raised lip to protect the raised camera bump. Actually I'm on the spigen website now and it appears like they are reverting back to the 'Rugged' name for the upcoming series (see P30 renders) instead of running with both 'Marked' and 'Rugged' labels. Raised lip and wider hatch patterns looks to be present for the rugged case design for vertical running multi camera setups
Anyhow, I've taken a gamble and ordered one to see if the marketing holds true. haha
Do you have some case to recomend? Ringke looks good as allways
Honeycomb armor case from Aliexpress similar protection to Ringke
Xundd case
Spigen has both rugged slim armor and tough armor cases. Rocking the rugged slim armor now currently but awaiting the tough armor with kickstand. All bought from Spigen website.
I like Samsung's own hard case for A70. It's basically clear but with choice of graduated colours.
It won't protect the screen from smashing or damage but it will keep scratches from the back and sides.
It adds very little bulk to the phone - in fact you wouldn't really know there is a case on. Amazon UK has them for about £10.
Aliexpress still has a good assortment of cases depending on whichever style you prefer. I always check the reviews before buying. Aliexpress withholds all funds which are not released to the Sellers until you receive the product and are happy with it. If there is something wrong where the Seller does not agree then it's easy enough to enter a dispute. Aliexpress will step in to protect their clients if needed. A very safe way to buy direct from China.
