Spigen Neo Hybrid Carbon Galaxy Note 5 Case with Carbon Fiber Design and Reinforced Hard Bumper Frame for Galaxy Note 5 2015 - Gunmetal

The case fits the phone very well, and has protected it from several drops onto the laminate flooring in my bedroom. I've seen it on YouTube protecting the Note 3 from drops onto concrete so I trust it to do the same if I should drop my phone on concrete.All of the buttons work well, they aren't at all loose or flimsy, and they click when pressed. There are holes in the case where need be, and I can still remove the S Pen with ease. No need to stick sharp objects or nails in to pry it out of the case.I keep very short nails and haven't had any issues with it.I noticed that one reviewer said the case obstructed his headphone jack, however, the case is compatible with mine. I Imagine it's possible he/she has a very thick casing on his/her headphone jack, and perhaps that is why they don't fit together.I can't fault the case, it seems like a 5 star product, and it's minimally-obstructive. I can still fit the Note 3 in the front pocket of my jeans. This is a great case for anyone trying to look after their Note 3.

It's a great, good quality, good looking case.Maybe there is a little too much emphasis on the packaging, and do you really need a certificate of authenticity for a phone case?I chose this case as I use my phone for work as well as socially and I needed the case to retain a professional look.It does bulk the phone up a little but that's the price you pay for protection.Access to the S-pen is still easy and call quality and clarity is unhindered.Comments about the case being slippery.... it depends on what state your hands are in. If you are cold and dry, then the phone is a little slippery. Not like a bar of soap but slippery like say a cold squash ball. At normal room temperature, the grip is far more pronounced and if your hands are warm and clammy, say after a run, then again, it becomes less grippy.That said, grip is not an issue here, the case is made of hard rubber and the ring that goes around the phone is plastic, hold it properly and you'll not have any problems.It's a little tricky to plug the charger in as the input slot becomes reccessed . It means that for athe first few times of plugging it it, you have to watch what you are doing. I found after a short while though, that you "learn" how to feel where the port is and it stops being a problem.I have dropped the phone three times with this case on, or rather the phone has hit the deck three times from waist height and there is no damage to the phone at all. Was I lucky or does the case actually protect the phone? Who knows, alls I cansay is that it's a cool case that works for me :D

Had to ponder long and hard over what I would buy to protect my new phablet. After a read of case reviews for the Note 3, this was included in many and at £20 is a decent price to pay for a case that is going to last 2+ years. I took the plunge and ordered from Amazon, 3 days later the case arrived. After reading some of the reviews on here about how difficult it was to 'put on', I sat down on my lunch break and it literally took 30 seconds. No problems at all. The finish on the case is smooth (but not slippery), and looks absolutely fantastic and definitely adds to the aesthetic look of the Note 3.To summarise, this is a fantastic case and it is well worth forking out the few extra quid for a case that you know will do the job and protect your phone and looks great as well.

Excellent case. Moulded silicon inner and tight-fitting composite outer ring. Well fitted to the phone and isn't so large that it prevents easy acces to the phone functions. Silicon section isn't so sticky that you can't easily get it into and out of a pocket but it is so that it doesn't slide off things. Correct useage of the phone buttons is not compromised at all. Careful though - as good as the case is, the gaps in it to allow charger and audio cable access are narrow, meaning after market items need to be tried first!

Looks nice but the clip on plastic surround is so delicate and I imagine it has the same protective qualities as an egg shell. My phone slipped out my shirt pocket while leaning out of the car at a height of around half a metre, it landed on the top corner and the whole outer frame cracked and opened up easier than a lady of the nights legs. If it had dropped from a little higher then I would almost certainly of said goodbye to my screen. I won't be purchasing another one of these.
