Thickness rubber at head and chin area will prevent your screen from touching the ground, minor gap. But if your floor has stone or roads, then no protection. I rarely will drop my phone.

I rarely will drop my phone but sometimes luck is not on my side when it happens no matter how careful I am sweat.gif That's why I got Ultimate Shield and Spigen Neo Hybrid on my S7 edge.

Guys, anyone heard of or using those hydrogel screen protector?

Looks like quite promising with full screen coverage and easy installation...

Want to hear some feedback about the clarify, sensitivity, durability and user experience before decide to get it or not~

I was looking at them in aliexpress...

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/IMAK-Full-C...2856975537.html

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/H-A-Full-Co...2852302197.html

But they look like those from Ultimate Shield and Zagg

Am using clear coat on my S7E now, found it a bit pricy. So looking for alternative... Of course if got TG with full coverage, it would be perfect for me...
I never bought anything from aliexpress before. Usually from taobao or tmall.

Is it cheaper from aliexpress than TB or tmall?
*
Actually, Aliexpress is Taobao/Tmall in English laugh.gif I think depends on the items if cheaper or not. Aliexpress is free shipping depending on items.

Wow cheaper Ringke Invisible Defender haha wink.gif Free shipping?
Mine also from South Korea Ebay wink.gif Official store. USD10.

Know what, Poetic Cases cancelled my ordered and refunded today.
It seems like the parcel got lost at customs and cannot be tracked shocking.gif
OTAO Tempered Glass still waiting from Aliexpress.

Time for casing-hunting again.. Verus, Spigen, Olixar look nice!
Haven't tried this type yet..
I will not miss the absence of Clear Coat on the phone.
Ringke Invisible Defender is wayyyy better and smoother than CC, CC was rubbery on touch.

This? https://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/OT...2852277683.html

I just ordered this from Spigen for USD52.74 with USD5 off after completing their survey.

https://www.spigen.com/collections/galaxy-s...case-hybrid-360

Was thinking of buying from their ebay site but didn't have this case there.

Yes correct! See.. 2 units ordered on Feb 20th from Msia.
That's me!

Spigen's nice.. But I don't think I want to spend more than USD20 on a casing.

The I bought is front & back... Not sure how sensitive the screen protector will be. As now using a tempered screen protector for my Mi A1 and it only sticks on the edges. Not full adhesive and it's not very sensitive when using the touchscreen.

Yup! all free shipping.
1st time but Ringke product, not sure how it quality go.
Actually i much prefer Spigen Neo Hybrid case but it is quite costly compare with Ringke wave.
if Ringke not up to my expectation will definitely back to Spigen cases.

My wife using Ringke Fusion for her Mate 9. Quite nice at first. In the end, have to cut off the cover to the USB C port as can stay in place anymore. The back got scratched badly but that's good when the Mate 9 is till nice and shiny.

Neo Hybrid is on sale in Spigen ebay page. US$15.99 + US$4.58 shipping.

Cheaper than Spigen own website.

Hi all, planning to buy S9 Plus(moving on from iPhones) and I've been using Otterbox & Lifeproof for my iPhone from 4s til now, 6S+.
Read bout these Spigen and Ringke cases. Are these cases reliable? I know its much more cheaper than Lifeproof and Otterbox but are they as good in terms of protection compared to the other 2 brands? Cos I usually pay abit more and use the casing for longer lifespan.. smile.gif

Been using full covered casing for years and never use any Tempered Glass Screen Protector as well, so not too sure which can survive better..

Thanks! smile.gif

Here's my Spigen Neo Hybrid Crystal on my S7 edge since first week of purchase until today.

Got battle scars from drops and all...

So your phone is all good? smile.gif
Seems pretty good.. but does the casing work along with most tempered glass? I also read that some of the tempered glass doesnt goes along with some casings cos of the cutting of the case and it makes the glass peel off..

No scratches at all on my S7 edge. I couldn't find a curved tempered glass for the S7 edge. So I settled for Ultimate Shield instead.
