Here's what I don't like. I ordered neo and slim weeks ago. And they said they shipped and I just got them today and had a priority 2 day usps label on it. I drove package to post office and had them put return to sender. Screw them. I will rock my $10 spigen bounce case once I get my developer note 3 and also I'm not sure I'll buy again with their lying not a company model I like. They had me sold after I had s4 with neo but now after this not sure I'll be back. Hope spigen reads this but I'm sure they don't care.

Ordered my Neo hybrid in metal slate from Amazon (spigen) on Oct 7, said in stock. Shipping label printed on the 12th.

Accepted in the system today, 18th, and only first class.

Mine just shipped as well. got the 2 day shipping, so it should be here monday

Ordered my metal slate Neo Hybrid Oct 7, got it today. It fits good, looks great, but I think I'll return it. Ten minutes after I put it on I nearly dropped it, the first time since I got the phone. That back is slick!

The other issue is the amount the TPU flexes at the front edge of the phone. It moves so easily I'm worried it'll screw up the Mime Ghost Glass I got today. The plastic frame fits fine & overall it seems to be great protection, but that soft rubber right at the edge of a screen protector would worry me too much to put up with it for long.

I also have a Poetic bumper that seems to be ideal. It looks & feels like the one I had for my Nexus 4, and that worked out great. I had another one one my S4 and liked it too, but it had a soft edge, very flexible, and it pulled away from the main part which was a harder plastic.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] sendmarksmail:
I thought I was the only one. I was under the impression that the back was matte with almost rubbery grip. But it was slick and slipper. Not good for a large phone you're trying to hold with one hand while using thumb.

Is the neo hybrid available
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] uvaman:
Received yesterday an email from mobilefun that my Neo is coming. After two and a half week of waiting. We'll see if its good if not returning back.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] baste07:
Coming but when
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] P2o8wer:
Spigen has been out of the office..they just got back the 16th. I've been waiting for my neo hybrid and crystal screen protector for 2 weeks now.. i can't wait no more. I still have the protector on the screen from out of the box..
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] keynith:
Mine should be here monday! Ill update you guys on how it goes
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] jurey24:
Just got mine today even tho I tried to cancel it through amazon on the 16th because I ordered it on the 28th of October. Got the silver one. Fits nicely had no issues with it once it got here. I might actually keep it. Can post some pics later if anyone wants to see the silver on the black note 3
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] flexte:
My order has said shipped for the past week. Time to get amazon involved.

I had couple of pics of the metal slate with my black note 3... I like the case
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Despyse:
Got my infinity white case yesterday. Gorgeous case, fits great and feels good in hand. No loose anything and all holes are accounted for. The headphone jack hole is my only annoyance as I cannot fit my Audio Technica jack in it. But in order to do that the hole would have had to have been thicker than the case itself. So ill just get a small extension. Overall 10/10.

Quick review

I've had my case now for about 1 week and here are some initial opinions:

1) really like how the case looks and feels, feels solid and one of the thinner cases I have used. Haven't dropped the phone yet to test the durability.

2) disappointed when applying my glass screen protector. I put the protector on first and then the case which was a big mistake as the case didn't fit perfectly around the protector and ended up displacing the protector. Was able to reset the protector later and reapply but by then the damage was done and now I have some dust and very tiny hair under the screen.

3) the case usb port doesn't work with many of my micro usb cords. The OEM Samsung cord works fine but most of my micro usb cords are too think to fit the case, so be warned if like me you have a collection of micro usb cords and home, work, and around chargers as many wouldn't fit for me.

Regarding #3, does anyone have any recommended slim fit micro usb cords? Doesn't need to be 3.0, any are fine.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] craigels:
Got an email too saying that they didn't get there shipment from them and it's delayed another week
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] krelvinaz:
My case arrived today, 2 days early (Like USPS). Solid packaging like you would see in a store. The case itself is very lightweight and looks fine compared to what I've seen others that had issues with theirs.

Unfortunately, it is empty, since my phone itself won't be here until Tuesday (UPS is SLOW!)..... nothing to play with.... :crying:

Funny the case is about 1/4 larger than my existing phone when I put the phone on top of the package. Keep forgetting how large the N3 is. Played with a Co-workers phone on Friday, it is easly 1/2 the weight of my current phone as well.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] chronos7:
I received my case today almost 3 weeks later and I must say the case is really looks nice and fits nice... It's a shame that spigen has bad customer service
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] dmitt25:
Lucky... Still waiting here. Monday will be the start of week 4.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] samklee:
yeah, same here. been a long wait. ironically, i ordered batteries from the middle of china and they got to me faster than this case, which is yet to appear.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] wilflare:
which launcher are you using? :eek: that looks pretty good!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] droidguru:
Got mine and not impressed for $25. It looks good but the quality just isn't there. The buttons are really loose, but the volume rocker feels like it's going to fall off and rattles every time I get a message or call. I've messaged Spigen about this twice, and had Amazon send an e-mail on my behalf with zero response. I'm using my $3.51 Caseology case right now because I just can't stand cheaply-made products with horrible customer service. I'll give them to the end of this week to offer a replacement or refund until I initiate a claim through Amazon.

Neo hybrid Case

I'm interested in buying.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] tererai:
My Dante Red arrived today

I placed the order on the 29th of September before they had any in stock and the case finally arrived today. I ordered it from Amazon and I live in Australia. The case looks amazing and fits perfectly. NFC still works with the case on and the Spen is easy to remove which is what i was worried about. all my earphones fit perfectly through the headphone jack. I currently have a plastic screen protector on but i Have the Spigen Glass. tR glass screen protector coming later and I will update you how that fits with the case. Current pictures at the bottom.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] porkaysi:
have the glass TR on with neo hybrid, the fit is good now issues what so ever.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] flexte:
Just received mine it does not work with my charging dock.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Despyse:
My headphones don't fit with this case. Need an extension...
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] MANswers:
This thread needs more pictures. Now that the case is reaching out to the members... more people need to leave their first impression along with pics.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] keynith:
I got mine today. Fits well once you get all the corners pushed down so that the bumper fits in correctly.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] gordonzhao:
I wrote to them about this 2 weeks ago. I don't know if I should be happy they replied at all or disappointed it took them this long to do so.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] scoot05redss:
NVM!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Ravaloft:
Does it say Hybirid on the side? Tell me the manufacturer didn't misspell the name of their own case. Definitely looked more red in the pictures.

Thanks for posting!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] scoot05redss:
You are correct, just noticed it was misspelled. But if you ordered it from spigen I wouldn't worry, I ordered this one on eBay, probably a knock off. It was a bit cheaper lol! Hilarious!!

Sent from my Galaxy Note 3
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Ravaloft:
You probably got it a lot sooner than other people too! Unfortunately, I still haven't gotten mine.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] wilflare:
hmm that looks like a knock-off casing

the Neo Hybrids should have a cut-out for the speaker at the bottom
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] scoot05redss:
YeahI believe it is, i'm gonna pull this pics down, not to confuse people!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Medic1013:
I have a dante Red that I'm looking to sell. The Red wasn't for me honestly and that's the only reason I'm lookin to get rid of it.

Pm me if interested.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] llfloyd79:
I ordered a knock off too on eBay lol...from China. It was $9.00. I couldn't get the S-Pen out either at all. The speaker was also covered and "Hybrid" was misspelled. The saying is true...You get what you pay for lol. I ordered the official one today so hopefully I get it soon.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Tidefan13:
I ordered mine on the 12th and It still hasn't shipped. I haven't got a email saying it's shipped or anything saying anything. Hopefully it'll ship soon. I'm a nervous wreck Walking around with it naked, having paid retail..

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Mr Ian B:
Pm sent, can you post a pix.

Ian B
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Mwinggg:
waiting for gold one myself as well
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] AssassinsLament:
I got the gold one and it looks very nice. Fits perfectly. I also installed a qi wireless charging coil and the case still fits fine since it's part tpu. You can hardly notice any difference. I've tried NFC and it still works fine. I have yet to try wireless charging because my charging pad hasn't arrived yet.

Oh, and the Seidio Surface Holster doesn't fit the Spigen Neo. It's unfortunate because I need a holster, but love the look of the Neo better than the look of the Seidio Surface case.

The Neo case makes the note 3 look like an oversized iphone, which I kind of like!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] wilflare:
I'm getting more and more tempted to get this casing...

the only problem is the considerable bulk it adds to the phone
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] dgco86:
I'm liking the case so far. Only issue for me is that the official Samsung MHL 2.0 adaptor doesn't fit with the case installed. Is there such thing as a USB extension cable? Would that prevent the MHL function from working?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] xXJay_RXx:
Got any pics? I'm interested in the gold one now
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] GTvert90:
Just got my slate blue it's more slick then I expected. But I like it
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Gadget_Grover:
I got the same Neo Hybrid knock off from eBay. Is it just me or the stylus is impossible to take out with this cover. I hope it's just a problem with the cheap version only.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] BlueChris:
I just received myne after 3 weeks w8ting but I really don't like it to be honest, the case is great is just I had used all this time a soft bumber and this is hard in hands, don't know maybe I will use to it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Crsdr37:
Here it is after 3 weeks champagne gold have to say I love the color on the black note 3. Also have the Spigen tr glass on it which first glass screen Protector but so much better than zagg
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] YungMage:
Does screen protector sit flush with lip of case?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Crsdr37:
Sits perfect as long as you get the screen protector on exactly if you have never done a glass one they are not fun but worth it for stylus usage. I love it

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] bigup7:
Looks like spigen uk have stock of the metal slate now with free postage

Tempted :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] YungMage:
Actually it is KOREA
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Maverick777:
Real Neo Hybrid cases are made in Korea and if you do a Google search on fake Neo Hybrids you'll find that the fit and finish is not as good on the fake ones. For instance, the silver buttons on the Neo Hybrid are actual buttons on the real one, but just silver paint on the TPU piece on the fake ones. This leads to noticeable loss in tactile feel on the buttons. Instead of being clicky like they should be, the buttons become mushy. So while it may look similar, in everyday use you will notice a difference.

So it's up to you if that's worth the premium Spigen charges for their real ones. I'd rather get something like Dizontronic or Cruzerlite for cheap cases. At least they're well made (as in the button holes are precise and the volume and power keys are easy to press and don't feel mushy).

I've had plenty of cheap Chinese knock offs. They're not worth it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] gordonzhao:
Haha.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] bigup7:
Been looking on eBay and it seems the fake neo hybrids don't have the speaker cutout at bottom of the case

Am I correct ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] zmore:
FINALLY received my silver Neo Hybrid case today (10/24); ordered 10/4. Waited 3 weeks for this case, and it LOOKS nice enough, but I'll probably return it as it's MUCH more slippery than I would've imagined.

Using my "temporary" Caseology leather case until my Incipio DualPro arrives. Incipio's case has a grippier texture.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Tweh:
Got mime this morning. Taking it apart and puting the boarder on last screws up the fit. The sides bulge. I put the two pieces togther then put the phone in. Fits perfectly. Shipping pains aside, I'm really satisfied with my purchase.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] BlueChris:
Yeah no way to put second the outside part, together 1st the top and squeeze the bottom did the trick
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] dkotoric:

Volume Rocker

Received mine today after ordering it on Monday. Very disapointed. The volume rocker does not stay in place. One side falls out then the whole piece falls off. Looking at how the volume and power buttons are designed I won't be getting a new one. There is almost no material to hold the buttons in.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] elracing21:
Anyone know if you can buy an extra outside part of this case. The (bumper) plastic piece? Just wondering because I'd love to get all the colors for me and my girlfriend to mix it up.

USB3.0 cables - amazon

I ordered 6 of the usb 3.0 cables of different lengths to use all over the place. They dont fit out of the box with this case but i just took a sharp knife and shaved back some of the plastic on each one. for whatever reason the casing is really thick on these things. anyway they are all working great now, just be careful!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] xXJay_RXx:
That probably won't be for a while. That's how it was for the S4 at least. It was a while after the release date that they sold the bumpers/back plates separately for the Neo Hybrids and Slim Armors on the S4. Especially if they're still struggling to meet demand with how it takes weeks for them to get them to us.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] gunnnnzzz:
does anyone have a recommended set of earphones for this case? I ghetto rigged mines for now but want to find a good set that fit snug
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Harmony707:
I need a case that has a good amount of grip, does this case provide that?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Mikegrmn:
I have a spigen bounce bc the neo wasn't available yet here. I like the fit and looks, but I'm totally disappointed by the grip. It just feels like a matte plastic piece. So it doesn't feel like a glossy Samsung back, but it's also no otterbox silicone shell. I had the defender for my razr HD and I just loved that I could lay the phone on my fingertips and almost turn my hand down by 90 degrees without the phone slipping. I assume the neo has the same materiel as the bounce. So no, I'm not crazy about the grip.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Harmony707:
That's a shame because I really like the look if this case. It doesn't make the phone look cheap and most cases do.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] krelvinaz:
One of my problems is that in the case, the phone is flat on both sides. When I put the phone down on a table I am having problems picking it up quickly.

It wasn't until after I pulled out my old phone to check some settings that I realized the old phone was not flat. Sitting on it's back, the cover is actually raise a bit so that when you go to pick it up, the edge of the phone is not flat on the table.

I am going to add some "feet" to it in a day or two just to see how that works. I like the look of the case, but it is not very grippy.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] bobbyphoenix:
That's the worst for me. I feel like I'm trying to pick a penny up that's been glued down. I have to slide the phone to the table end to pick it up. LOL
