I keep chirping on but I love, love, love the Spigen Ultra Hybrid. Completely sold on always having one of these in my rotation in future. This and an Aspen is all you’ll ever need.

Although at the moment, I don’t even want to go back to my aspen.

Ordered my wife the non-MagSafe, non-matte version today.

Everyone complaining about MagSafe indents. Just use the synthesis, no issues after 6 months.
My only issue with the Synthesis is that mine gets all these shiny scratches all over the back after a few weeks of use. I do manual labor for a living but my phone is kept in a pocket by itself and I don’t abuse it…. What color do you use?

I’m not even going to attempt to post a pic. Made it home to my $25 black leather nomad. Either my hands are dry or this thing is slicker than a bar of soap. Ooof. Seems to slip on rather easily; almost too easily to me.

Probably a solid buy at $25. If it was $50+ it would be on its way back to Verizon.

Air 2 showed up and honestly for $20 I’m keeping it. The grip is perfect on it and I like the raised corners. Like others have said the back plate isn’t as stiff as the synthesis but I hated how hard that case was to get on and off and I’ve already condemned mine to the recycling bin a long time ago. This will be a good substitute. The indent on the back sucks but I can live with it for the other pluses that this case brings with it.

Anyone have the Spigen Rugged Armor case? Right now it’s only $20 on Amazon. How is the grip on it?

I just can’t spend more than $25 on a case.

I had this and returned it for what it's worth - the buttons were poor, very non-tactile. I am fairly picky about having good tactile buttons though.

There are some decent cases here but as it happens much of what I have read so far confirms my choice with the "the Kase" transparent case I got ... plus the company makes a lot of very nice accessories including selling reconditioned phones.
