Spigen OnePlus 3 / OnePlus 3T Case [Rugged Armor] Original Patent Carbon Fiber Design OnePlus 3 3T Cover Shock Absorption - K03CS20615 [Black]

Wow,This may just be the best TPU Case available for this, or any other device.I've tried 3 different black TPU/Carbon Fibre cases,up to now and kind of wish that I'd gone for this one first.I'd really love to find a decent "hard," case for the phone, but, since they either leave the top and/or bottom exposed, I've not found one yet :O(In lieu of that, I've been looking for a TPU case that feels really solid,not floppy, or which doesn't "give," excessively below the Home Button.These are also very difficult, nay, impossible to find.This case, I believe, is about as close as it's going to get.The other 2 cases I tried were fine, design wise, although one didn't fit the phone neatly at the top, although it may've just been a dud and and the other, although it provided decent protection, didn't feel like a totally tight fit all round and also added a fair amount of bulk to the phone.This one feels just right..yes, it does "give," a little in the place I most dislike, but, it's much thinner in profile, adding almost nothing in the way of bulk to the phone, than one of the cases and fits like a glove everywhere else.I've read some reviews from people saying that they always go for the Spigen Rugged Armor for every phone they get and I wish I'd taken notice of those and gone with this one from the start.It would've saved me a whole lot of hassle and trial and mostly error! :O)I would thoroughly recommend this case.The official OnePlus 3T Leather case arrived on the same day as this and, to be honest, as it stands, I'm more impressed by this, in terms of protection and overall feel.

This case is quite thin and doesn't cover the phone as well as my other case (An Orzly Fusion Bumper). I'd say it offers about half the protection of the Ozly case. The Spigen is a really nice case, with a great finish, very nice material and an OK fit. But I was expecting at least a level of protection equal to the Ozly case. I believe there are several places that it falls short.-The case uses thin material to reduce phone bulk, but this lowers the protection on offer for drops etc.-The raised lip over the face of the phone offers some protection when putting the phone down on a table face-down, but the lip is not high enough and is probably lower than most cases.-As above, the lip over the front of the phone does not wrap around the face of the phone well . This gives two problems, first, it means the case can fold off the phone at the side when in your pocket / bag. Second, it leaves quite a bit of the phone / screen protector exposed, so dirt could get under the screen protector and lift it. If they had added another 1mm of coverage it would have been so much better.-The fit around the phone camera lens is not good, other cases use a 'tear-drop' design that contours around the lens and flash, this one uses a square cut out that exposes part of the phone material.It's nice case and doesn't add too much bulk to the phone. The materials as really nice too, but as mentioned earlier my other two cases, an Ozly Fusion Bumper and a Cruzerlite Bugdriod offer much more protection. For that reason I wouldn't call this case either 'Rugged' or 'Armour' like and I'll most likely return it.

I like this case overall, but as with most phone cases there are pro's and con's. For me they are:Pros:- Looks nice. A nice shade of black, with a textured 'carbon fiber' bit. You can feel the lines.- Seem to be good protection. the corners have a little gap, that I imagine will compress slightly if you drop the phone, giving it more cushioning.- I only have the standard glass protector right now, but I expect this case won't interfere with a properly installed tempered glass front as it doesn't come over the front screen much.Cons:- A little bulky. To give it proper protection the case is a bit thicker. For me it's a con, at least on most days. Then when I drop the phone I am grateful- The case isn't as grippy as I'd like. With the added bulk making it larger in my hand, and added weight from having a bulky case I find it harder to use my phone one handed and unless I'm on the sofa I now feel I need to use two hands to be safe from dropping.

It fits my OP3T perfectly. Periodically I remove the phone from the case to check if any dirt has built up behind it, but so far nothing. The seal is good, dirt does not get in hence the phone stays mint. I am yet to drop the phone, but genuinely think this case, the way it is built, with little special moulding details in the corners, would cushion the impact and save my phone.The only negative I have about this is that holding the phone in this case while reading the internet pages, I tend to support it on my little finger where the speaker is and headphone jack, on that edge. And this has some sharp edges, so much so that my little finger starts hurting after half an hour or so, so I have to change hands. But I have come to accept this as part of the robust design. If it wasn't for this, 5 stars surely would be guaranteed.

I’m really not a fan of cases, as I prefer to have my phone naked and really appreciate the design that the manufacturer intended.My arrogance here has lead me to break my last phone, and after buying the 3T outright, I didn’t want to risk breaking this one, so I thought I’d compromise!I’ve had a few cases for my 3T, all have had seemingly good reviews on Amazon, but have been complete let downs, either due to design flaws; such as corners snapping whenever you slip it off the phone, aux cables not plugging in properly due to the poor frame cut out, or due to poor material, or a combination of the above.This case however, is the best I have ever used, hands down. The material is firm yet flexible, the cutouts are perfect, and it just looks good on the phone. That’s a combination that’s really difficult to find in a case, and actually doesn’t make me feel like I’m compromising at all, in terms of not appreciating the naked phone itself.I’d highly recommend
