U don't need the spider web to give good protection. I use ultra hybrid without the internal spider web. No issue. Already saved me a few times from hand level drops.
Most importantly must have air bubble protection in 4 corners, and froont lip must be higher than screen.

Alright bro. I'm also looking for a transparent case which also give good protection to the phone now.

so far no color discoloration issues on my device
but found 1 very small chipped and it looks quite obvious... i know it just a very small chipped but that's the sign for me to be more careful
fyi im using spigen rugged armor but sometimes will use it without case in my office

Guys, can you recommend me a calendar app that is similar with the calendar app in Samsung phone. I find that the default calendar app is not useful for me.

Feeling sad, unnoticed that the back of my phone (matte black) seems to start chipping. Under certain lighting, I can see that the black colour is diff. However it is stil at early stage where no silver metal is seen.

P/s: I'm so pissed off with it so I'm using my phone naked now trying to enjoy its beauty as much as possible. Gonna put on sticker in the future when the chipping issue becomes too serious

Did you using Spigen case?

I still believe it is that Spigen case as a lot report using it. That Spigen case also unusual somewhere not right. For example it easier deodex and also left mark in phone. Others brand case none doing this.

I already throw away all my Spigen case and not buying any Spigen case in future.

Yes bro sad.gif What i do now is to use a layer of clean A4 paper in between the case and my phone in order to avoid direct contact of the phone to the spider web design. Hopefully this works

P/s : Goat Simulator and Geekbench 4 are free today! Grab it before it's too late! smile.gif

Weird loh i didnt use any case for almost 2 months now. Always putting on tables, car docks face up. Still no chipping. Matte black. I just put it like i drop a book on a table, not careful like really2 careful. No signs of anything yet. If i want to sell it i just say i put on a case 24/7 probably people still believe it i think. Still looks perfect af.

Maybe the chipping is caused by using case tongue.gif

Looking good! How much did you spent on the sticker?

And may I know if let's say I would like to change sticker in the future, will the existing sticker leave any adhesive on my phone ??

Just for the sake of updating & not discussing, I'd put a sheet of clean white Paper in between my spigen case and the phone so that the phone will not come in direct contact with the material/ spider web design of the case 2 weeks ago.

Upon opening up my case today for cleaning, I noticed there are black colour droplet on the piece of white paper. I'm not 100% sure it is from my matte black iPhone but I'm convinced that it is not dirt. My best bet would be my matte black iPhone 7 plus really has its paint chipped despite it is well protected doh.gif

Told you throw away the Spigen case lo. I already throw all or give to people. I not going to use any Spigen case anymore.

I don't believe it is due specifically by spigen case bro. Perhaps the spider web design speed the chipping process. Anyway, quite disappointed with apple QC doh.gif

Ur chipping issue is it something like got small spot (different tone of black) on your phone but can't wipe it off?

Yup, the chipping issue I experienced was still in its early stage where no silver metal is seen. However when view under certain light condition, u can see the difference in the intensity of black colour. It's like there's a spot where at first you may thought it is dirt or grease but it just won't go away even after thorough cleaning.

So you don't think the spigen case is the cause?

Not really bro becuz I noticed the chipping after cleaning it from another transparent case. I believe it might be caused by the heat generated and apple QC.

I rmb reading somewhere that those who do not use case actually don't experience the chipping issue, but just some scratch.

you guys have the early batch from last year?

I bought my phone on first week of Jan 2017. Checked my phone and found that it was made on last week of Dec 2016. Is my phone considered the early batch ?

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Apr 8 2017, 08:17 PM)
In this case I am lucky I already selling off earlier batch, my current is later bought. My sister & my friends bought even late than me.

Anyway I still reject Spigen case because it give stupid spider web.

When not using, it immediate deoxded for nearly all type, soft rubber or transparent. The hard transparent is the only don't deoxded.

For soft rubber transparent case, it very fast deoxded and yellowish.

Yes I have to admit the case did leave the stupid spider web mark at the back of the phone doh.gif definitely a design flaw in my opinion. However I really like the protection the case give. Any better alternative to suggest me?? This spigen case did protect my phone once from a drop of 1.5 meter.

I think you can try below for great protection case. smile.gif

ElementCase - This case is very tough and really kind of famous now, but a bit pricey.

Ringke - Onyx series is solid and nice. My favor protection case.

Nilkin - Defender series also nice and tough.

UAG - This brand is my previous favorite brand but since they do combo for iPhone 7/Plus and 6s/Plus, I didn't fancy it anymore because it got extra headset hole when use for iPhone 7/Plus.

Element case looks dope ! Thanks for the suggestion!
