Any of you guys with the galaxy note 4 have a case to suggest? I am not an abusive user but I want something to protect against the little bumps and drops.

my criteria:
-low profile.  This thing is pretty big already I'd like to not add excessively to the size. I am willing to trade heavy protection for this.

-I must be able to easily use the fingerprint scanner. Lots of the cases seem to hack a lip that would prevent me from properly swiping my finger.

-I would like black. No teenibopper colors.

-I would prefer rubber corners instead of plastic corners but this isn't a dealbreaker.

that's it! What do you have that meets these criteria. The fingerprint swipe is the tougher requirement.


ETA: I ended up with the Spigen Neo Hybrid case. It meets all of the above criteria nicely!

I have been using UAG cases and never had any issues with them.
Not sure about the fingerprint swiping though...

I had a spigen hybrid? On my 3 for a year. Worked fine along with the screen protector from eBay.
Recently took the case off since it weighs more than the phone

I like this case I can't tell from the pictures if the case edge will allow for clean finger swipe on the home button. Can you swipe  yours?

Get the Supcase Unicorn Beetle on Amazon. The version that comes with a built in scrscreen protector and an extra belt clip cover piece.  Awesome case.

It looks great and feels even better.  I'm very impressed with how sturdy and good this case feels in my hands.  It doesn't add too much bulk, but it provides great protection.  The vast majority of reviews on Amazon are 4 or 5 stars, and I concur.

I was originally considering the Spigen, but it doesn't come with a screen protector, and it doesn't work with the Verizon version of the phone (case blocks microphone so nobody can hear you). I got the Unicorn Beetle Supcase and it's amazing.

I don't use the fingerprint feauture, but I just registered my fingerprint and unlocked my phone 3 times in a row with the Supcase Unicorn Beetle on. Worked without issue.

I am using the spigen slim armor on my Verizon note 4 with no issues. The tempered glass screen protectors are out now too.

Spigen on my Note 3. I've had zero issues.

I picked up a Ringke Fusion a few weeks back assuming I'd get another when better ones came available. I don't think I'll switch it out after using it for a while. It's small, rubber around the edges with a clear plastic back, fits well, and came with a stick on screen protector. I've never been a fan of big cases. Got it off of amazon. Oh ya, there are no issues using the finger scanner.

What's your opinion of the cases compatibility with fingerprint downward swipe on the home button?

this one could also be a contender.

I just ordered one of these.  I fell in love with the kickstand on the Kraken for my iPhone, so wanted that.  The Spigen armor has a kickstand, and I think it looks great.  Already have a tempered glass protector on the phone.
