Spigen Neo Hybrid Crystal Designed for Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Case (2016) - Satin Silver

Let me start by saying I ACTUALLY HAVE my galaxy S7 Edge. I was one of the lucky few who received their phone early. I received my phone yesterday Feb 29th and then received this case (bought it on Monday and paid for overnight, since the tracking on my phone said it would be there that day, the 29th.) today so here is a quick review for those who are debating buying one for when they receive their phone.I like to see my phone, the galaxy S7 especially since it is pleasing on the eyes. The phone however is slick and a little scary to hold with it being a little larger and having a glass body. All day yesterday, when I didn't have a case I was scared to even pull it out of my pocket. It honestly was a contrast from my leather back LG G4 so I couldn't wait for a slim case. I took a chance with this case, as Spigen generally does nice cases. I went caseless on my G4 but that wasn't really an option for this stupid expensive (but very nice) phone.As usual with Spigen it fits wonderfully and still lets you see the beauty of the phone without adding almost anything to it. The grip of the TPU is very welcome as it gives me better hold on the phone and eases my nerves that I'm gunna drop the thing. In addition, the small side bezels actually make using the screen easier in my opinion as the curve of the screen almost meets with the curve of the back, so I kept bumping the side of the edge while trying to hold it before. Now, it is easy to hold it one handed and I'm not bumping the edge as much with my hand or fingers. It adds hardly any bulk to the phone, and what little it DOES add is welcome personally for grip. As for drop protection, well.....I'm certianly not going to test it, but I can tell it will at least give it protection from small drops. It is also nice as it now will raise the phone if you lay it on its face. It also will protect that lovely curved screen from drops as well. Overall, it just makes me feel at ease having something on there "just in case" as I work at a desk most of the day. I've included two pictures, just in case any one thinks I'm pulling this out of my butt.The only downside would be that the TPU back holds on to fingerprints, however the glass back of the phone does the exact same thing so it is kind of moot. Just a quick wipe off with your shirt and the TPU looks nice. A potential FUTURE downside will be possible discoloration, however don't really use that against it as at this point we don't know.I'll try to keep an eye out for questions any of you may post. This is short review and is hardly professional or great, but I figured with all the reviews already here, you guys would appreciate one that actually HAS the phone. I'm sure better ones will come along, but hopefully this gives you an idea what to expect.

I really like this case, but have had a couple issues with it. First, I love the way it looks and feels. This is my first 2 piece case and I like the crisp look of the gunmetal grey hard plastic over the clear tpu. This case keeps the overall dimensions of the phone pretty thin while providing a good level of protection from every day use. I regularly toss my phone on the desk and on occasion drop it without fear thanks to this case. The buttons work well and the speaker, microphone, and camera have plenty of room to be fully functional. The usb and headphone jack are accessible, but the OTC adapter that came with the phone and a larger headphone plug I have don't fit in the cutouts on this case. Most cables will probably not have an issue. The first real issue I had with this case was with it pushing up the corners on my skinomi screen protector. It's only pushing up on the one side, and I've noticed my screen protector is not exactly centered, but there's not a lot of room for it to move either way. Recently I started using the gear VR. This case, and I imagine any case, has to be removed for the phone to fit in the unit. If it wasn't for this I probably wouldn't have noticed that this case is not the easiest to take off and put on. I always feel like I'm going to break the plastic outer piece trying to put it back on. All together I'm happy with this case. If not for the minor issues mentioned it would be an easy 5 star. It has done it's job protecting my phone so far.

I've tried almost every Spigen case for the S7 Edge, all paid full price by myself. Lots of them had things that I liked and things that I didn't like.The Neo Hybrid felt get and light, but the outer rim felt cheap and like it would push off easily after a few times of removing it.The Thin Fit was nice and helped with the palm rejection and also didn't feel slippery, but it still made the edges feel slightly sharp which bothered me with use of the phone when lying down.The Rugged Armor was probably my favorite, but somehow I feel like my phone is not that fully protected and wanted something a bit stronger.The Liquid Crystal is a nice case that felt great, including the buttons. I feel as if the case isn't that protective and that it would yellow too quickly for me.With this Neo Hybrid Crystal, my favorite thing about it is how great it feels. It doesn't add too much bulk, and the edges are a little bit wider while also feeling more rounded. This makes the phone feel great. The outer rim does not feel cheap like the one I had for the Neo Hybrid, so I'll wait and see. The dotted design on the inside of the clear case makes it extremely easier to clean the inside of just dust or hair, while not having to worry about smudges. The dotted design from the outside looks very attractive, in my opinion. Overall, this is likely to be my favorite case for my phone, I feel like I finally found that case I truly like after buying about 6 other ones and wasting money. When I had an iPhone 6 Plus, the Magpul case stayed on my phone for many months and I felt like I had "the one". This case feels that way to me. I should be a bit weary about the back starting to show signs of yellowing or whatever, but I can see myself just ordering a replacement if it comes to that. One thing some may not like about the case is that the back feels slippery, but it does not bother me at all.

This is a nice case, but I hold my phone in one hand and cradle the bottom with my little finger under the bottom edge to stop it slipping from my hand, this is where the cut outs are for the power and audio socketsBecause of the way it’s made with a two piece design the hard-outer edge is harsh plastic and has made my little finger sore.The cut out should not have harsh edges or could have a stopper to put in the cut outs, I have put some PVC tape over the cut outs as a temporary solution.Perhaps if you hold you phone differently to me, this will not be a problem.

Received my Spigen Neo Hybrid crystal case in clear. Very pleased. It seems to be well made and fitted my S7 edge phone snugly and feels good to hold. Having used it for 4 weeks am happy with the purchase at a good price.A word of caution though which I have contacted Spigen twice about through Amazon but they have not responded.Do NOT use with a wireless charger if you have the clear case. The case on the back has started getting pink spots more appearing every time I used the charger. There is no warning when purchasing this case that it is not suitable for wireless charging.The manufacturer has poor customer aftercare once they have received your purchase.I am not the only person to report marks appearing on the case after wireless charging. I suggest a warning in the description is needed but doesn't seem to matter to the company. So otherwise a great case but ruined now by marks on the back.

This has been a great case for my phone up to now. I am not one for putting phones in cases normally but the S7 edge needs a bit of protection if you are out and about. It just feels delicate to me. So this cover has stayed on my phone since I got it, I can't say it has saved my phone as I haven't dropped it but the cover has probably reduced the chances of me dropping it.It fits well,the buttons still work, you can still plug in to charge and it will wirelessly charge with it on. One of the things about the S7 edge is that it looks so good, fitting a cover ruins that look. With this cover the phone still looks good since the cover is transparent with a nice platinum coloured band, a trade off for the protection offered. The top and bottom are made a bit wider to take any hits so if the phone was dropped even face down on to a flat surface the cover would take the shock.One benefit I have found is when using the phone your fingers or thumb can touch the sides of the screen and make it react, The cover gives you that little bit more to hold and stops that happening so much.Overall I am happy with it and think it was money well spent.I've been using this cover for a few months now. The platinum coloured band has paint worn off the corners and an ink pen leaked on it in my pocket which I was unable to clean off. Still doing a good job of protecting my phone though and still happy.

I must admit I was very confused when this package arrived. Once I took it out of the amazon packaging, the Spigen box looked old. It was also scratched all over. I'm sure I bought a new case not second hand. On further inspection the case was fine, there was no plastic stickers for me to peel off. (had this case been used before????) After giving the case a quick wipe I fitted my phone into the case. It looked nice, all the cut outs in the right place. But not my go for case.

Buyer beware: If you have a full front screen protector on your device, this case will lift the screen protector from the screen due to it fitting so tightly to the phone. If you like you're screen protectors to be bubble free, then you may want to consider a different case.Aside from the above, the case is great. Fits great and looks superb. I was concerned that the case may interfere with the GPS where the phone flips out and doesn't know which way it is facing but fortunately that doesn't happen with this case.
