I ordered a s-case view or whatever it's called with the phone. I'll use that until my Spigen shows up. I'm trying the Neo Hybrid again. Though I was VERY disappointed with them on my Nexus 6. The buttons broke in less than a month, but with my Note 3 they lasted a year+.

So I may have just gotten one from a bad batch. If this one doesn't hold up, I'll try something else.

 

At the risk of being THAT GUY............................
If you're gonna put a case on this phone,especially this phone,why not get the Note4 that actually has more features,costs less & surely will get updated to get the new S-Pen functions?

 

Just going off the assumption that one of the appealing aspects of the NOTE5 vs the NOTE4 is the different look & feel.
Most,if not all of that would be lost (covered up) w/a case.
Otherwise,you're actually losing features by moving "up" to the Note5 (no SD Card slot,no removable battery,no I-R Blaster).

 

If I were to get this phone,the only case I'd consider is a bumper-only/backless case,similar to this:

I'll admit it,the NOTE5 is a great looking phone,enough so that's it's tempting to pick one up.
For myself,I can't see putting much more than this on it.
Perhaps it'd be enough to keep a firm grip/prevent dropping as well...............

 

Alright,since this is a Note5 Case thread,& not a "will ya or won't ya get the Note5" one,here's a look at some of the OEM Samsung cases:

My apoligies for temporarily side-tracking the topic of discussion.

 

Here's their global page with NOTE5 accessories/cases:

I prefer a case with a kickstand and holster. BestBuy's Platinum Series case has been great for my last 2 phones so I'm hoping they roll one out for the Note 5. Verizon sells a similar case but it looks & feels very cheap. imho

 

If I get one of these I'll want a nice clear case.

 

Please let us know what you think of the NOTE5 & the OTTERBOX !

 

This is what I ordered

 

Is it the new fast charge wireless charging dock from Samsung:

Just got this case from Amazon, I am very impressed with the fit and finish. Got it for $17 Free shipping.

Not gonna case mine for most daily use until a backless bumper-only frame is available.
However,Best Buy does have an expensive TPU Case that I may pick-up for those times I need the protection:
(Best Buy FUBAR'ed w/the pix,got it mixed up w/another case,both listed here,you'll see the oops):

My prior cell phone was a Samsung Galaxy S3 (did not like that much) and I created my own deep purple and white case using two Otterbox Defender cases to get my color combination that I wanted. My new Samsung Galaxy S6 is now proudly protected using the Otterbox Commuter Case that is in a periwinkle/purple case that I am using a tempered glass screen. The purple is not as pretty but the case is protected and not so thick and protects my white slippery phone.

I am knew here so I am trying to figure out what picture I should use for people to recognize me as I was given this generic avatar.
