I'm looking for a really thin and lightweight case for my note. I really prefer to use it without the flipcase, and like the SGP ultra thin that I had for my S2. But the ultra thin is not out yet and just about every case is either too bulky or made of tpu or some other material that I don't like.
So what do u guys think? Is it sufficient to just use a screen protector? I keep my phone in my bag when not in use.

supposedly the slimmest case around.
either grab one of those, or grab one of the ebay plastic cases.
but pointless to get a case that is too slim as it wont end up offering any worthwhile protection. it may prevent scratches, but wont help with drops.

i got it 2 days ago , great grey/smoke transparent case , also i noticed it is very thin ,even thinner than the Nillkin cases (i have 2 Nillkin cases).
now i can easily plug my MHL / those big 3.5 stereo audio adapters, while with the nillkin, i had to take it off for both those adapters to fit , not saying Nillkin case is a bad one , no its is a great case.
so far im loving this new case , cos i tend more to like transparent dark cases.
hope this helps someone making up his mind

SGP Ultra Thin
Thank you for all the suggestions! I didn't know about the existance of some of them! I may still go for the Ultra Thin Air now that it is available as I had it for my S2 and coupled with an SGP screen protector, seems good enough.
For those who are unsure about how good the screen protector is, check out the video at the bottom of this page.
Does the SGP ultra easily get fingerprints?

Surprisingly you can't find that case on Casemate site. Fake case maybe?
Well being a glossy plastic I suppose it does. My case for the S2 was white so it wasn't that obvious. Btw, I had dropped that phone at least a couple of times with the casing on, without any issues to the screen or bezel. Though admittedly the height was about three feet or less.

This case, FlexiShield Skin is pretty good in the thin department. Not the thinnest but then I think its good to offer some protection just in case theres a drop and you need it:

I have read bad reviews for the Ultra thin air sgp for the GS2.
What are the chances that SGP will fix the problems from the S2 for the Note Ultra thin?

Got one of these a few days ago, the case itself is thin and fits like a glove, that being said it scratches really quickly (it was scratched by the time I put the screen protector on) on the backside, screen protector so far seems solid.

Yes but the case-mate tough case is of better quality, and gives you a better grip.
It will depends on what you'll want to protect.. if entire body or just the critical areas..
the barelly there covers the back and side while the tough covers the top and bottom too and add a little bump in the 'face' edges.. i think you understand.
the tough maybe get a better effect if you somehow drop your phone to the floor, while the barely there will cover the just the essencial agains scratches for most.
it's a dificult decision i know...
good luck anyway
I went with the tough and a zagg screen protector I don't want this phone hurt it's my baby
How I wish the Barely There gave total protection. Why can't a case be slim and thin and protect everything?
I went and ordered BOTH
Plan on using the BarelyThere for general everyday use, and the Tough for when I'm doing outdoors stuff or travelling.
I'm using the tough case. I actually wanted my phone thicker as I find handsets too thin nowdays. I also like full protection as I'm pretty active and my phones tend to take some hits. This one will take that thinness away that many covet so if a person were one of those this one should get a skip unless the need for protection overrides that. Other attributes are that it has a decent gripiness factor for a hard case. Does not collect lint on the exposed rubberish parts. Cut outs are very accurate and sized so that I did not have to trim to get any of my chargers or headphones to fit but the cutouts are not overly large either. Overall I would rate this case highly for the right person.
I had the second one for a few days but found the edges very rough and poorly made - took it back

What's the second one for you? (because mahdibassam puts the tough image first and barely there image the seconde, but in links is barely there first..)
I'm waiting on my tough case to arrive. Should be here tomorrow. I also have a zagg on the way thanks to the 50% off sale.
Would one of you that own the tough case mind posting up some pictures of it on the phone? I've only seen the promo shots.
Thanks everyone for your replies.
my heart is with the tough case, because i like its full protection and good grip, but i am worried it will make the phone too bulky.
Could some of you who have the Tough case post some Pictures in this thread? i and everyone else will really appreciate it.

Did you go with the silke or the capsule ?
EDIT - I was lucky enough to see both of them, my mate ordered quite a few of both ..I prefer the silke ..feels and looks better ..
SILKE
Fully recommend...
CAPSULE
More of a vinyl look ..gets a little greasy from fingerprints ..still a great case ...seems a little tougher too ...
is the tough-case the same as they the iPhone one, they have in the video on their site?
Does it have an internal silicone (type) case? and then the tough case goes onto of that?
I have a tough case on mine, I buy it for all my phones. Love the grip and protection it adds. I also like the fact that the edges around the screen are raised so if you drop it wont hit the screen unless its an uneven surface.

Yes, it has a thin silicone inner liner and then the hard case around that. The fit is very good with both and the cutouts are exactly right and line up on both. I have now drop tested my phone on a linoleum floor and the phone and case were unblemished so that answered my question about this case and others like it as far as popping out on a drop. At least in this instance the phone stayed in.
And guys, some of us have had SGP and not liked it as well so remember in many ways you are talking opinions and those will change based on needs and preferences. For me looks are at the very bottom of my buying criteria. To be honest I liked my old seidio innocase better than this case. Fit and other factors were about the same with that case but I really like the hard rubbery feel of it, I thought they nailed it with that material and feel. Great grip, didnt get sweaty in the hand when you were forced to make a long call, didn't collect lint, no fingerprints.
Got my tough case in the mail today. Slapped it on as soon as I got home. Fits beautifully. Adds size to the phone but honestly I prefer it a bit bigger. Has a nice grip feeling to is now and I'm not in panic mode every time I take the phone out. I'm sure the phone is durable. I just don't want to take the $750 challenge.
My screen protector should be here tomorrow and I'll be good to go.

No branding. Buttons are dimples, work fine. Cutouts are perfect.
Mix of matte and gloss black.
TPU is tight and resistant to pulling off the edges of the screen.
Ordered late Friday night, got Monday morning.

Looks pretty good. Question: The amazon title says "and screen protector." This isn't a case with a built in screen protector, is it? I have a screen protector on mine already, so I don't need a case that has a screen protector built in, like an Otterbox or something. Just want a snap on case. So provided that it's just a case and a screen protector comes separately, how's the case fit regarding the screen? Does it seem like it'd interfere with a screen protector? Thanks
Screen protector is not part of the case. Just received this. Very nice
Awesome, thanks for the reply. Sold it for me, buying now
It just includes a cheapo plastic stickon protector.
The edge that wraps around the front is small, shouldnt interfere with any normal screen protectors.
You also have the quicksand case right? Which do u prefer this or the quicksand?

Quicksand is obviously slimmer. The sandy texture is nice.
This provides WAY more protection though. The matte texture is also nice.
It's a matter of what you need.
Just got this Hyperion case in. Perfect cutouts, perfect form factor still kept (it's very slim). $6-7 on Amazon, can't be beat.
+1 from me. I've got the clear case, nicely shows off moto maker colors while still giving it that bit of extra protection.
I also ordered this one and was pleasantly surprised.

Got it today and love it. Wondering if I should've ordered the clear one though so I could see more of the back.
I got the frost clear one for a white moto x and it looks really good. The back has a nice matte feel to. I think this is the best tpu case for the moto x. I'd like a simliar hard case that is below 10$ but I can't seem to find one. Clear, dimple cut out, thin with a little lip for lay on the table.
Got this in frost clear. It's not bad but still too thick for my liking. Biggest complaint is that buttons are hard to press, would prefer a cutout of the buttons. Would've liked the whole thing to be matte and to reduce the edges on the front; they are too close to the screen.
The quest continues for the perfect TPU case.

Yes I had a TPU case from Spigen for my GS3 that was simply perfect. Super thin and somehow it did not interfere with the front of the phone at all, unlike most other cases. It kinda tapers outward, instead of towards the screen, so it still gave protection from falls. And yet it all managed to stay snug. This is the kind of case i'm looking for.

I've got that case; it's pretty good, has a lip to keep the screen off the surface of a table if you put it face down. Main downside is that the SIM/MicroSD card tray is cut out so the surrounding plastic on the screen surface is thin. Over time I'm worried this may get weakened.
The Ringke Fusion looks good, however the one I had for the Samsung S4 had issues putting in large headphone jacks (e.g. Etymotic ER-4, Sony MDR-7506) and the headphone jack hole on the Z3+ case looks even smaller if that's possible. No issues with headphone jacks and the Spigen .
A while ago I ordered this case:
http://www.banggood.com/Nillkin-Sup...k-Cover-Case-For-Sony-Xperia-Z4-p-991532.html
Takes a while to be delivered, a month for me, but it really is a nice case. Pretty slim, but it is is rather firm. Adds a nice grip to the phone, due to the 'soft' feel of the plastic. It covers just the back and the left and right side, but it's edges extend just half a millimeter to protect the other sides of the the phone as well, even when it lies face down. The holes for all the buttons are nice and tidy. And bang-for-the-buck-wise, it really is a no brainer
Got the Spigen one because I got tired of the flip cover I had been using. Very nice. Not pretty, but feels good in the hand and very robust. Why oh why does it have to have the silly "air cushion technology" text at the bottom, though?
Got the Spigen case and it looks great on my white Xperia™ Z3+ Dual.☺

I haven't been using any case or anything with my Z3+ since I bought it. The back is as extremely polished as the front, so it is super slippery in almost any surface where you'd put it - seriously, very slippery; it's like my Z2 wasn't half as polished. As a result, mine already shows a few very minor scratches from the various surfaces I've parked it on, and a very light one over the camera glass. It seems that the back is not as resistant as the front, though - the same week that I bought it, I accidentaly dropped my Z3+ on the rough floor of an old church (it was during a marriage ceremony, very silent atmosphere at the moment and just imagine how I wanted to scream and swear all sorts of bad words when that happened!); "fortunately" it landed on its back, but it made a very noticeable scratch Because of all of this, I just bought a silicone case. I hate cases because they fundamentally alter the immediate look of the device, but unfortunately it gets too much exposed without one.

those china ones still do not have a cover over the glass though correct?
No no cover. I'm using one like that the amzer hybrid and it's actually pretty decent. Haven't dropped yet so don't know how effective it is. You might need to take an exact knife to the USB and 3.5mm holes though depending on what cables you use. That being said I ordered 2 lighter tpu cases on eBay yesterday. The case fits the phone like a glove though

Being the freak that I am, I always order three things when I get a new phone, first, Glass screen protector a must! second, silicone case for everyday use, third, rugged case for sporting and outdoors. I got this rugged case, for the price, it actually works quite good, good enough for drops. Not a fan of of the "kick-stand" but no choice in the matter. Fourth, I usually get a waterproof case but haven't been able to find one for this phone. I'm sure it will come out soon, nice thing to have when you're on the beach in Jamaica

I have one as well....the only thing I don't like about it is when taking it off, it wants to take the back with it. But yes, in conjunction with a tempered glass screen protector it does the job

Current cause that I know. Rugged and covers the front as well. Had it for a few months and the phone is still spotless. Case itself it's a bit scratched up but it has more quality than you'd think.
The transparent silicone bumper on Aliexpress works pretty good. It overlaps the screen a bit so it's protected from falls or scratches.

I picked up this one on ebay...it is very similar to one that I have had on my Samsung S3 for the last 3 years and has done very well...dropped the S3 a few times and it never received any damage so am hoping that this case will protect this phone...
cheers

I saw one Chinese manufacturer website that says that the galaxy note 5 waterproof case fits zenfone 2
m.made-in-china.com/product-772732375/Cheap-Waterproof-Diving-Case-for-Asus-Zenfone-2.html
Does someone know if it would really fit?
I currently own the Spigen Neo Hybrid, which I thought was slim:

But it's not that much, really... The slimmest I could find was the Spigen Thin Fit, but it's not that much slimmer:
Is there anything slimmer out there?
I have that case... Try using it without the border....
I also have the seidio case... I just use the inner cushion part... It doubles as a thin case cuz I can see their logo on it... I don't think you can go much thinner
I didn't measure but I have a cheap Chinese TPU case and it looks less than a mm. It was less than $1 shipped.
I have the nillkin nature TPU case. Perfect fit, and only 0.5-0.6mm thickness. Not much "bulk" added at all when used.

Don't really like it without the border and it's still too bulky.

I don't really like those kind of "translucent" cases... Had one for my previous phone and with time it became yellowish and ugly.
I also have the Nillkin nature, and yeah, most of these transparent cases do discolor over time, but for only $5 I'll pick up another one when that happens. As far as the case itself goes, I had one of those $1 TPU cases and the mold was a little loose, in particular the sides had a tendency to bulge outwards so I would definitely check the reviews and images before pulling the trigger on one of those. The Nillkin one is pretty spot on and the buttons feel much clickier. Nillkin also have a hard case that's almost as thin as the Nature case, I'll put a link below:

+1 for the Nillkin, I also have this, some months now and not even remotely going yellow.
I have had cheap brand ones in the past that went yellow before now so holding hope this one will not do that.
Good case, light, slim and easy to remove if wanting to run naked around the streets for a bit

I am really liking this case, the pictures look great.
I am currently enjoying the Spigen thin Fit case, but will be grabbing one of these, thanks for sharing. :good:
--------------
I had a 'barely there' case by Casemate on my M8, and was hoping they would bring it to the 10, but it seems they have discontinues that case for whatever reason.
Watch out for the spigen case, it has some issues with flash when using the camera. Otherwise it's solid.

This is the one I bought: link
It doesn't look exactly like the picture, but it was really inexpensive. I like the look of the HTC 10 so I got a clear case. I also figured that if it yellows a bit, I could always get a replacement for really cheap.

For that price I can jump on board, thanks for sharing.
Mind posting some actual pictures of the case on and off the phone, please? :good:

Thank you kindly, looks real nice, especially for that price.
Do you suggest it?
I do. I have a more rugged case also, but only use that rarely because I feel safe enough with the thin case.
Thanks. Bought 3 of them just in case they get yellowish since they are so cheap and if I don't like it, well, too bad...
I've been rocking the Imak cowboy case (there's a review of it somewhere here). Keep in mind it'll probably have little impact protection but if all you're needing is scratch protection I find it perfect.
Slimmest case by far for me would be the included case from Yelun that was bundled with the TGSP. I've gone used only the HTC Ice View, Nillkin, and Spigen Crystal (I think).

I grabbed 2 myself.
For 77 cents, can't go wrong.
I'm at that point where I love my 10 but no longer treat it like a baby, so I still want some protection against surface scratches and what not, but still want to be able to enjoy the device.
Hopefully it holds up as well as the M8 did for me. Bought it on release day, used it up until the 10 release day, in just a slim case, not screen protector, and it's still in mint condition.
X-Level probably makes some of the best slim cases I have ever used. I first discovered them for my M8 when I visited Hong Kong and I've gotten them for all my phones since then: http://www.ebay.com/itm/X-Level-Lux...hash=item1a1de87d40:m:m4lwJH0dcr1dceg1As9H-EQ
They're also really cheap which is nice.
This is one of the nicest and slimmest that I've used: http://www.ebay.com/itm/360-Protect...hash=item3d2066daa1:m:mJx-cwyQu1UTdGuV1gRW8gw
