Spigen Slim Armor (NEW)

Where do you guys see 26% off? Aren't they legally bound to charge the price that is at the time of shipping? Amazon did the same once and immediately refunded the difference, just said price dropped before order shipped.

Mine shipped today too, wouldn't mind sending them an email asking for an adjustment, but I don't see any sale on the site.

Just ordered a slate. $13.31 is a great price.

Haha thanks! Indeed it does. How do you like your Zoogue cases by the way?

They're alright! I find the edges/seams where the grips are a bit sharp though when holding the phone in the case in the hand. But for the price they're pretty good.

Yesterday I ordered the Spigen Neo Hybrid Ex Slim in Satin Silver which I think will look pretty slick on my white iPhone 5 It's my first time using a bumper case so hopefully I will like it. If I don't, I will try out the Slim Armor!

For those of you who have this case, have you noticed any scratching on the back shell? Thanks for the input.

The plastic part on mine has shown scratches , the bottom corn slips out occasionally also. Since the case is designed to work with glass.tr it slips from time to time.

Interesting about the corner slipping out, no where on the Spigen website do they mention it having to be used with the glas.tr screen protector. Appreciate the input. Still think I am going to pull the trigger on this case, wasn't planning on going with the glas.tr protector though.

It does not have to be used with the glas.tr. the glas.tr will work with this case, if you choose to use one. My corners do not slip out. I am commenting on the neo hybrid ex slim.

Here's the back of my Slim Armor case. This is not from rough treatment - just from being moved around on a smooth tabletop. I have contacted Spigen and sent them this photo. Haven't heard anything from them yet. I like everything about this case except for the ease of scratching the plastic back and the fact that this case is SLIPPERY in my hand. If Spigen would redesign the plastic back and make it more scratch-resistant and more grippy, they would have a winner.

Thanks for the photo, this is what I was afraid of. I was thinking of going with the slate, which may show less scratching, or maybe it would show more?? Other concern is the lay on the table factor, most reviews people seem to have the glas.tr included on the phone so there is no lay on the table. Anyone using it without the glas.tr shield? Is there any lay on the table factor?

I don't have the glass protector, just a regular screen protector. There is a slight bit of screen protection from the lip of the case. I usually lay my phone face up on tables, which is what caused the scratches on the case.

I'm on the verge of ordering one of these.
Can someone describe what the case feels like? Not the shell thingy, the actual case.
Is it super grippy rubber? Is it easy to pull in and out of pockets or does it get caught? Does it attract a lot of lint?

The part that holds the iPhone is a rubber-like material. It doesn't get hung up in pockets and has about the right amount of grip. I haven't noticed it attracting lint. But once you put on the plastic shell, only the top and bottom parts have the rubber material visible. What you're going to be holding most of the time is the plastic shell, which to me has a very slick feel with absolutely no grip. If no grip is what you want, go for it.

Got my case today

Did anybody else get a $7.99 spigen gift card ?



Also how many here use the jelly button sticker ?

Yes, got the $7.99 gift card also.

No, I don't use the jelly button stickers or screen protector.

Which is why I said that the back needs to be made of or covered with something that doesn't scratch so easily.

So it seems that there is some, albeit small, lay on the table protection to help not scratch the back of this case. Thats good enough for me, I love the look of this case I am going to pull the trigger.

Hmm, I really don't like cases, but that one, I would consider

Other than the tendency to scratch and the lack of grip, it's a very nice case- very sharp looking and priced reasonably. I guess I'm the only one here who prefers to lay my phone screen-up rather than screen-down. I'd rather damage the case than damage the screen.

I just got the case and its nice. Not worried about scratching the back or front because I don't slide it on the table and I normally keep it in my pocket. The plastic has no grip so don't hold it too gently because it slipped off my hand once onto carpet.

Wirelessly posted

I have my phone in the satin with a glasstr. It does add weight to a naked phone (with the glasstr), and it is noticeable, but I love it. It feels so solid, no creaking, lifting, nothing! I was working overnight and usually carry my phone in my left front pants pocket, but I had it in my left breast shirt pocket of my uniform. I got out of my car and bent over to grab something and it fell out onto the asphalt parking lot, I guess about 3 feet or so. Not a scratch front, back, or corners.
So the case worked for what it is intended for, to protect my phone and the bonus is ip the case and sp still look great!

They should sell the middle part separate
I would like to switch colors from time to time


Is that glasst screen protector worth it ? I already have ghost armor in the front
