Fake SGP Neo Hybrid Color Series Case for only $14.39

I came across these fake SGP Neo Hybrid cases on eBay and purchased one for only $14.39 free shipping, I should be getting one in couple of days and post some pictures and maybe do a review. I contacted one of the buyers who already received the case about the quality, he replied back with the following.
(I did not realize it was fake, until i saw on the side "designed by spigen california". I had never heard of Sigen before, so i didn't know what to expect. Overall i'm impressed by the quality, only the white part is on top en bottom a little lose.. The case is definitely worth the money).

I received the case today and as promised I took some pictures, first two pictures were taken outside so you can see the actual color of the case, let me know if you have any question.

I was looking at these too. I was going to buy one but I go for the Ballistic instead.

Spigen IS SGP just another name

My responses asking whether they were authorised resellers and if the case was genuine:
Dear:

and
OK

Seems like they're not even pretending they're real?

Yeah, definitely fakes. Also messaged one of the sellers who was honest and stated it was not genuine. However, will be interesting to see what the quality is like. Cheers.

Should be delivered by Thursday, I will check it out and report on the volume rocker and power buttons.

I could get them for less than USD 5, the quality looks good, you probably can tell them aprt if next to each other.

There are similar ones being sold with a black back as well. You can see them here:

Sorry but I don't think those are very similar at all. SPG is TPU with PC border....That case is silicone, PC back, and ugly.

[Q] UAG for the HTC One?

What do you guys think of the chances that UAG will make a case for us HTC One owners?
Was there any announcement on this before? ...or hints of it?
I wrote a request to the UAG Labs at their official website under 'Customer Support' (Sorry, I still can't post links!). Not sure it would be of any help though... Hopefully they will consider making it. They have great cases and HTC One seems to be a great phone. They would be a great combination! :good:

!
Our prayers has been answered! :angel: A case for the HTC One has appeared on their website. :highfive:
(Again, sorry guys... I still can't post links lol)

Looking good IMO.

Think I'll be buying one of those:thumbup:

The UAG cases do not cover the IR Blaster on the One. Mine should be in tomorrow, and I received an email from Customer Service assuring me that the case shown is just an illustration, and the Power button is not covered on the actual case.

That's great news! I wonder if they made the case material slightly "grippier" (less slippery) than their previous ones...
That would make this case pretty much perfect! Or am I being too greedy right now and asking for too much :silly: haha

I did the same, I got:
When we launched the GSIII we had limited colors and then spread the palate. This may be the case for HTC One solution.
Thanks for reaching out. We don't have plans for the Aviator for the HTC currently; however, the landscape of our product road is a constantly evolving picture and this may become an option for us in the future. We truly appreciate your comments and suggestions which help us to provide better products and services.

Try the otterbox commuter case with mime ghost glass. I love the combo, not very bulky and superior protection :good:

Does the defender (since we are talking about bulky cases) have the same issue with the silicon coming loose over time like on the sgs3

Had on on a S3 now have one for the One using the MIME glass instead of the included plastic screen protector. Works great and no problem with pockets.

You're running the new 1.29.401.13 or later firmware? That's supposed to help. You can't be running a custom kernel either; you have to be running stock kernel (for now) to get the touch improvements until HTC releases what was missing from the last source update. If you are already running the latest 1.29 on stock kernel, there's nothing else that can be done at this point, short of trying a different brand of protector. Based on the comments I've been reading it seems as though some screen protectors are much better than others at passing through the human finger capacitance to the buttons. It would appear that the plastic material that some companies are using is interfering with the capacitive sensing of the somewhat insensitive buttons on the One.

Will I'm completely stock so I'm on 1.27
1.29 isn't available for me apparently because my phone says there's no updates available.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

I'm using the Spigen ultra colored too, and I've got fmno problems at all. Concider returning it if you haven't got the 1.29 update or wait untill HTC releases next version of android or new update (maybe around late june?)
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

Was having the same problem with the Spigen Ultra Crystal until I rooted and updated to a ROM (Android Revolution) with the 1.29 update. With the update the capacitive buttons are perfect.
You might have to just wait it out until you have the official 1.29 update.

Sgp ultra crystal and fosman both made my keys pretty much useless...then I bought "amfilm" invisible on Amazon and the keys haven't given any trouble at all since, they work every time I hit them. Some reviewers for the amfilm are saying the same thing, that their keys work great since switching screen protectors. The amfilm are pretty much exactly like the sgp, only they cost way less and you get 3 for 2.99. But "techmatte", the seller for the amfilm, has a coupon code on the page for the screen protectors that will give you $2 off, so you'll only pay .99 cents for a 3 pack. Worth a shot.
Here's the coupon code:

I just edited my post with the link and code for the $2 off....don't let the price fool ya, they are awesome! You can't even tell you have a screen protector on, it's invisible, and it feels just like the glass, your finger glides smoothly.
Oh, and they fit the screen perfect! The seller recently revised them, before they were a little short, about 1mm on the sides, now they are edge to edge. And they have a lifetime warranty!

I heard 1.29 helps with that issue, I'm current on 1.27. I've notice my Capacitive buttons are not responding great, even though I have no screen protector.

Yeah I've heard the same thing, that the update fixes the issue. Sprint has their update rolling out now so I'm going to check out their forums, if they have one, and see what people are saying about it and whether it fixed it.

Omg. The experience is so different without a protector. I just checked my amazon and the order was actually 20 bucks so I will return them.
Also. The ultra crystals didn't fit all the way either. You can really notice these protectors because of where the swipe down notification bar is.

[Q] HTC Double-Dip Case Question

Hello all,
I have seen/heard many things about the double-dip case for the HTC One (which I'm picking up next week!), however I am trying to find & buy the black/grey/black double dip case and can't find it anywhere! If anyone can point me in the right direction, that would me much appreciated.
Also, does it even exist/is it out yet? Almost everywhere I look I only see the red/white/black one, but on HTC's official site, the 4th picture accross shows the one I'm looking for.
Again, any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

I did read here on the forums that some people's phones were scratched because of it, but that the cause was remnant plastic from the speaker grill holes.
Also, I don't think it is too badly overpriced. Maybe by $5. Most of the other slim cases sell for around $20.

The HTC One itself does bear striking similarities (and I'm getting the black one, so even more so) to the iPhone 5 already, I don't really mind that. After all, everyone tries to copy the iphone in some way or another. Just look at Samsung. Plus, the case is basically the same as the back of the phone itself. Just a little added protection .

I have double dip case and it hasn't scratched my phone. Picking up the case-mate tough case to go with all the others I have. It's an addiction!

I haven't seen all the colors from the official HTC site so I was the wondering what the build quality is.
I'll give it ago anyways. Thanks for the same eBay link, I live in Australia so its very helpful!
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 4 Beta

So I bought the grey/black one from that seller. Build quality seems solid. I have never played around with the red/black/grey one so I can't compare.
Fit was snug but no scratches. Volume buttons are a bigger pain then without the case which says something since they already weren't that great. Everything else seems pretty good. I like that it doesn't add much bulk to the phone.
Won the auction on the 19th (Friday) and received the cover on the 30th (Tuesday). Not bad considering it was an international delivery.
Let me know if you have any questions.
