iPhone 7 Jet Black Thread

Found that for my galaxy s6 the ultra hybrid by spigen case came with a back (not quite sure reen) protector meaning it eradicated the bubble effect :)

My son's clear spigen case for his 5c came with a clear back protector...Seems like they should include that for the JB models
 
I might have to get a different case, mine is like the ones that sticks and makes that ugly water mark. Not liking it

I have the same case, Spigen Ultra Hybrid, and had the same issue upon initial install. I was able to fix it by pushing the side of the case towards the back of the phone momentarily which let the air escape, if that makes sense. No more bubbles.

I was ready to return it and leave a 1 star review on Amazon before I fixed it though...

Thanks! That definitely helped! For others who haven't ordered the Spigen case but plan to, I got the clear one with black around the edges. It blends in a little better and looks less bulky around the edges.

Welp, it took some time, but you're right about them coming back... I just sent a note to them as well. Totally unacceptable and makes the case unsuitable for use IMO.

For anyone else... I'd wait for a revised version to come out before ordering the Spigen Ultra Hybrid. That sucks.

I'm glad I decided to go caseless. I'm now curious though how a clear skin would look on it.

I think I may end up going that route as well. I'm not sure if you mean a silicone skin or a "film", but I just ordered a clear film wrap from slickwraps (essentially a clear gloss screen protector for the rear). My main goal is just to prevent excess scratches in the least invasive way possible. We will see how that is, if it sucks I'll just go naked.

Darn. Yeah, well at least we now know the "trick" to temporarily fix it. And I also ordered the naked SlickWraps today too! Haha. I hope just getting the rear skin makes it eligible to receive the BOGO free offer.
 
Hey, just to let you guys know...after taking the clear Spigen case off of my phone a couple of times, the sticking stopped altogether! I guess it just needed to be broken in. I'm loving this jet black phone :)

Finally got some hands on time with one today.

I want it. No case either because I'm savage.

I'm glad I went with the Jet Black. Right now I'm using the Product Red leather case, but I might get another color (the brown and light blue also look good) and switch off once in a while. Without the case it definitely feels nice in hand.

The Spigen clear case feels nice too. You can't tell the difference between the front and the back
 
I just give Spigen a one star review on Amazon. I saw their response to one of the people who have the same issue saying you need to clean the back with dry clothe. I have done it several times and it does not help. I could get the air out perfect a couple times, but soon after if you put it in your pocket or touch the case at the back with enough pressure, it comes back on again! I am looking for an alternative.

Looks good! I actually ripped the back off mine making it a bumper. I'm going to clean it up a bit and see how it looks. It's also slightly looser but the back and front won't touch any surfaces when's put down and that all I really wanted. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
