This case won't sag or deform. It's totally different material, before they were using silicone.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Intercrew:
I just got it during the morning in the mail (Infinite White). The packaging was good okay, but the actual packaging where it holds the case (the plastic cover) was all scratched up with the stickers falling apart.

When I opened it up, everything was nicely put, the cutouts were good and the texture of the case was actually nice but doesn't seem like it'll give any protection at all. But the design is very nice.

I seem to be having the exact same problem as everyone. The power button seems to be stuck and it keeps rebooting with the case on. The volume rocker doesn't seem to have any problem. I'm guessing theres no fix for this other than to contact SGP?

I don't want to send them the case in as it'll take over 10 days and for them to ship back another 10 as it arrived pretty late (pretty good delivery since I'm based in toronto) so that'll be a waste of time...

This is my first SGP product as I always wanted one for the SGS2 but seems like I got the bad batch D=
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wond3r:
As was mentioned here, just shave a bit of the inside of the buttons off with a razor blade or something sharp. They are too long which makes the buttons too sensitive.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Product F(RED):
After using the case for a day I feel like the case is also too thin. I don't know if t was just me but in the videos it looked thicker. I mean, I'm still keeping it because it looks great, but it makes texting and holding the phone uncomfortable. So I went back to my Casemate Pop! w/Kickstand for now.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Intercrew:
Shave as in basically cut off the inside tips entirely or by little?

And lol the top left corner of the plastic is already cracked halfway.. think I'll go with speck later but the design and feel of this case is just superb that I'll probably stick with it
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Tomatoes8:
Too thin? Looks too thick compared to the old Neo hybrid to me. It also needs a black/black but I wouldn't say too thin is a weak point. Lol looks a lot bigger than the older silicon neo hybrid. From the pictures at least.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Product F(RED):
It's not a weak point. I have big (though not freakishly huge) hands. I'll put it this way; holding the bare S3 in my hands is more comfortable than holding the Neo Hybrid, probably because it flattens the edges where they're normally curved.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ReggieTee:
The packaging mine arrived in yesterday was also beat to hell.

I got a reply from Spigen today. They requested video/pictures that shows the issues. I linked them to the youtube videos and also sent them pics of my phone/case. We'll see what they do for me.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] eiraku:
Just received my Lumi Blue (or what I like to call ICS Domination Blue lol). Happy with what I got definitely - although I would have prefered a black TPU base vs the grey we have for the Lumi series.

Cutouts are perfect (as per all SGP cases) to the point that my helplessly oversized third party OTG Cable fits (tightly, but it works). The raised rim around the screen is great.

Niggles? THEM BUTTONS. I'm not quite ready to send it back for a replacement though, so I whipped out a razor and solved the issue myself (just trim the nubs on the insides of the buttons).

Now it works perfect.

Also the plastic frame is very, very thin and very, very slippery. To the point that I had to score diamond patterns into it with my razor just to improve grip somewhat.

Otherwise, for a simple case with repectable impact resistance, the Neo Hybrid does not disappoint.

Just don't expect it to survive multiple drops lol.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Intercrew:
Did you guys cut the nibs entirely off or just "trimmed"?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ReggieTee:
I got a reply from Spigen today. They gave me two options. The first is to return to amazon for a refund. The 2nd option, their manufacturers have decided to update the design of the case but it won't be available for a few weeks. They'll ship me a new one once the redesign is completed. I went with option two of course.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] keyzjh:
Can people who own this case take a few shots of the front from an angled view? Would like to see the depth of the lips

Thanks a bunch.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Intercrew:
I did the same and went with option 2, but are they shipping it for free or do we have to pay extra?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] il buono:
Just got mine today and it is definitely not as sensitive as others have reported. Installed it, moved it around a bit and perfect. A nice solid fit and the volume and power buttons behave as normal. I may shave the inner part of the power button to reduce the chance of it turning on in my pocket. I'm going to have a hard time deciding between this and my sgp modello case.

Sent from my SPH-L710
[Galaxy S III Accessories] eiraku:
Some more pictures, taken with a BB so do mind the quality:

Very nice paired up with Vert's JB Domination Theme as Lumi Blue looks very close to ICS Active Blue.

Would have prefered a black TPU back though, but well, let's just wait for that shall we.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Tomatoes8:
I am currently using the modello too. How much thicker and fatter is thi compared to the modello? The pictures make it look quite big but I am not sure if my observations are correct or not.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] il buono:
They're basically the same. The back side of it is the exact same design and thickness as the modelo. There is slight extra thickness along the sides and the lip allows for better separation between the devices screen and a surface. It's still a thin case though and it provides better protection than the modello. It also doesn't interfere with full screen protectors so that was a plus for me.

Well my case's plastic band that goes around the case isn't fitting right, its popping up from where the headphone jock is. Going email sgp :(
[Galaxy S III Accessories] xXJay_RXx:
So you just grab a razor n shave off the nubs on the volume rocker? Cuz I'm having the same issue too -.-

---------- Post added at 05:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:35 PM ----------

Okay just grabbed a knife and I shaved off the indents on the volume rocker and all is good now :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] woostar88:
Damn, after hearing all the response... I might skip this one... I've ALWAYS and ONLY bought Neo case from SGP for all my devices... including iphone 4s, galaxy s3, galaxy nexus, and etc... damn this is a shame, because I really like the color contrast and how it looks on s3.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] parapluie:
It's ridiculous that it's necessary to shave it down in order to use the case. Has anyone who owns the case actually received word back from Spigen regarding the problem?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] eiraku:
Somebody got emailed back a couple of pages back, supposedly Spigen is working on a revised version to be sent as replacement upon return of the defective first batch.

I've modded my NeoHyb much (+ liking and using the Faxion more nowadays) so I'm probably not eligible for this.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] King Shady:
Has anyone gotten an orange one yet? I've been waiting for 2 weeks and SGP hasn't sent me anything (emails, updates, etc)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cuhrazy:
I bought the green had the same problem as every one else. There remanufacturing them and shipping me a new one for free.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] xXJay_RXx:
how did you get a hold of them? I contacted them on their Facebook page n nothing

---------- Post added at 08:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 AM ----------

Okay I did get a response from them, I just didn't see it
[Galaxy S III Accessories] picachux:
I contacted them from their main page but they told me they couldn't help since I purchased it from what i thought was their ebay store. I contacted their ebay store and they gave me a full refund and let me keep the case. :victory:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] JungWoo:
I have a question for those who have the Infinity White.

Does it get dirty or discolored over time?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] unique77:
So far mine has not. No one has had them long enough to tell... but the only white part is that strip of plastic. I don't see why that couldn't be cleaned with a little soap and water if need be.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Product F(RED):
Forget Facebook; contact them through their website. Every website has a "Contact Us" link on the bottom.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] JungWoo:
Thanks. White is my favorite color for cases, but they get dirty so fast. Since the outer part is hard plastic, it probably won't get dirty.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] parapluie:
SGP posted this on Amazon:

We are sorry that you have a problem with your product. We have updated our Galaxy S3 Neo Hybrid Case. Please contact our Customer Service at cs@spigen.com for more details. Our representatives will be happy to help resolve any issues. Thank you very much.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Black Dawg Down:
I ordered mine from my local SGP authorized partner in Australia and have the same problems.

Despite the seller's attempt to contact SGP, they haven't been able to provide me a date when SGP will supply them with the updated version.

So they offered a refund and I am now asking SGP directly if I can buy the updated version get a discount considering the problems I had. Because I lost the shipping fee when I ordered the first time, and now I have to pay for shipping again.

Reasonable?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] nsx280ps:
Really want to order the grey and yellow on amazon, whats holding me back is the button issue... i wish there is a way to confirm that it is the updated version
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Black Dawg Down:
None unless you order from SGP directly.

Which is what I'm doing now. They confirmed the updated version is now available, but I'm trying to get a discount for the problems I had when I bought the case from their authorized partner.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ricey:
I had gotten an email about the updated case about a month ago (when i ordered), and I just got my case a few days ago. The volume buttons are absolutely perfect. The power button on the other hand was a tad sensitive. Not sensitive enough where it would turn it off and on with just the case on but enough if u tapped it lightly it would activate. I just shaved very little off the power and now the buttons are great.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rha_december:
I ordered one via Amazon, but the seller is Spigen SGP. I should be able to get a replacement if I email them my order#, right?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Product F(RED):
Yes, I did the same thing. They emailed me back a day later and processed a replacement for me, but it hasn't shipped yet. They said they will.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] xXJay_RXx:
Okay so I got a Neo Hybrid from a member here. SGP said they wouldn't do a replacement since I got it from a 3rd party but after enough complaining I got them to send me at least the silicon part thats been giving me issues. Now this is supposed to be the "updated" one but the moment it went on my phone, wouldnt you know. Same sh*t. Volume goes all the way down and I'm asked if I wanna power down. I moved the case around until I got it to where it won't do that. Now I wonder if the updated version is supposed to be this way. But at least for now I got it after a minute or two of moving the silicon around. So this is a heads up for people when they receive theirs. Spigen is truly a great company. They have top notch customer service and top notch products.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mrbuzz1967:
I'm looking to buy the Reventon Yellow as my pebble blue S3 is arriving on Tuesday. I too emailed spigen about the revised cases as I'd seen the Neo on ebay uk. they said that their own stock is the revised edition but I would have to contact the reseller to try and determine what version they had.

just looked on amazon uk and it appears their stock is sold via spigen themselves so I'm thinking that should be the revised one I hope!

have a cheap s-line case on standby just in case!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] avocco:
I bought myself the grey and yellow one and it is definitely one of the best cases I've ever had with any phone.

I had the same problem where it would try to power down my phone and also the volume buttons kept sticking, I got a knife and shaved off the inner buttons on the grey part and now everything is perfect.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] unique77:
Got the updated version myself.... works perfectly.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Product F(RED):
Got my replacement today. They sent the purple (or grey if you have that) TPU part alone, so save the plastic ring. The power button is completely not-clicky. You feel resistance but no click when pushing it, which is not a huge deal, and definitely better than how it was originally. The volume rocker is less sensitive now and clicks more, which is plus as well.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ReggieTee:
I got my replacement today also! The case is now perfect! I have several cases but this one was my favorite. Now that they have fixed the sensitive buttons issue, I'll buy another color. Good customer service Spigen.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] xXJay_RXx:
Does anyone who got a replacement still find it sensitive? I have to move the case around before I can find the right spot. Once I've found it, its good.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Product F(RED):
Nope. Contact them again. For me the volume is perfect but the power button is very stiff.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] adamboyd83:
Emailed SGP and asked if both the lumi and color series were both fixed. They said they only the color has been fixed but the lumi will be soon. Ordered the white. Already have a lumi that I fixed myself. Looking forward to seeing how they fixed it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wilsse:
Darn it! I ordered myself the Lumi case through their authorised reseller just last night (United Kingdom). It's just been dispatched.

Do you think it would be worth sending it back and waiting for a fix, or attempt a fix myself?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Product F(RED):
Send it back and wait. Or you can fix it yourself and then contact them for a replacement.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] adamboyd83:
I would send it back. It was a pain in the ass to fix. Not hard just a pain. They didnt say a time table but I'm sure it won't be too long. If you decide to fix it I just used sand paper to file the inside of the buttons.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wilsse:
Thanks both, I think I'll send it back. I've contacted Spigen directly to see how long it'll take for the UK reseller to receive the re-manufactured cases, hopefully that won't take too long.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] scotiwis:
I just got mine today - Infinity White. Looks like all orders now are the revised design because I have no issues with the buttons whatsoever - work perfectly.

As for the case, it looks fantastic!! Have tried numerous cases on the S3 since I got it and this is far and away the best.

The purple is dark purplish in some lighting conditions and dark grey in others - looks great.

The white border looks great.

Is no more slippy than any other case I've tried, I wouldn't call it "slippy" - the sides are actually quite grippy, the back is slightly slippy but if you're worried you can stick a little case grip sticker thing on it as I've had to do with other cases - but I'm not bothered with this one, the overall grip is fine.

All up highly recommended - best case I've seen or used so far :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Product F(RED):
The only thing I have to say about the revision is that the power button is very stiff; I can't feel it when I press down on it. But other than that, it's an all-around improvement.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mrbuzz1967:
received mine today and it's going straight back to amazon. I thought It was the revised version but it's not. buttons are horrible. also I find it very slippy in the hand.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] TheInvisibleBoy:
I just received mine today, how could you tell it wasn't the revised version? Mine seems fine.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Product F(RED):
Buttons on the original are waaaaay to sensitive. That's why they revised them.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] TheInvisibleBoy:
Judging from what you say, I think mine is the revised one? Not quite sure, anyways it's some-what sensitive but I'm enjoying this case overall. I have the Infinity White, the frame feels a bit flimsy but seems like it will get the job done. For the price, I'd say this is a good purchase considering you get a screen protector along with the case. I just hope that I do have the revised version and won't encounter any problems in the future.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mrbuzz1967:
very sensitive. my phone turned on and off twice while trying to put the strip on the outside! think I'm going to get the trident aegis when i've been refunded. for the moment I have a cheap tpu case that does a pretty good job.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] larry62:
Ordered a white one directly from SGP which arrived today. I asked them via email prior to placing an order if a new order would be the original or improved version and was told it would be the new one.

Power button was VERY stiff, but even worse were volume buttons which were beyond sensitive. Volume-up was being held down continuously once even slightly touched and released. Removed it and re-installed several times always with the same problem. Completely unusable, and being returned ASAP.

It's too bad as I like the concept and like the style.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Product F(RED):
I got the revised Infinity White one as well after starting off with the original when the series first came out. The revised version does have a stiff power button, though it works fine. The volume buttons are improved on my revised case though.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] dkreventon:
Is there any way to check if the case is revised from the box? maybe send sgp the barcode .... I want to ask the seller before buying. www.tiny.cc/sgp-ebay

Some of you said that it is possible to use a rezor blade to shave the inside of the case. Will the case last without that cuts becoming cracks and eventually breaking the tpu part?

Also, will the white part get dirty over time? like turn grey or something... Is the micro﻿ fiber cloth good for wiping the screen or is it just a cloth?﻿

One little problem I have with my current bumper is that the camera lenses is touching the surface I put my phone on, hope this won't happen with sgp case.

I've seen in a youtube video that is looks quite girlish (purple). Is the color fine for matching my blue galaxy s3? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_EL9A4Tz4o

Last but not least, is the case thin enough so﻿ it won't﻿ make the phone bulky? I had a galaxy nexus + sgp neo hybrid and it was great. The only problem was that the sillicone material expanded after a month and it was quite annoying, but it was very thin.

I was in my local AT&T store today and picked up the official flip cover and the Moshi screen protector.

I am afraid to open because I haven't seen any feedback on this model yet? Anyone get one too? I have a Tru Protection AG on now so I am in no hurry to open.

PS - I picked up some TecTiles also... Will start playing around with those tomorrow.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] lostaggie:
No one?

It might be an AT&T store exclusive. Just curious how it fits with the curved glass...

[Galaxy S III Accessories] gaveup:
curved glass...?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] dante2512:
I put a Moshi on every phone I've had for the past year. They don't show any fingerprints, they are washable and reusable, and they never bubble. Well worth $25
[Galaxy S III Accessories] titans1187:
Just put one on my GS3 and I like it but the only downside is the Bodyglove case I have pulls it right up :( I saw at my At&T store that they had the Speck Candyshell so I might head back and pick one of those up as well.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] lostaggie:
The glass curves at the edges so the standard static type filters fail...
[Galaxy S III Accessories] lostaggie:
It works great with my flip cover case... I have the incipio feather also but may send that back.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] titans1187:
The candyshell I bought fits great with the ivisor so for now ill be using that combo. Good thing the ivisor is reuseable cause ill be taking it off when my replacement SGP screen shields come in and I can switch off between the candyshell and the bodyglove(which is a real nice case)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] vince2398:
Is it a matte finish on the Moshi or are they completely clear like the SGP Ultra Clear ones? Thanks
