Does this case cover the white bezel surrounding the glass? I have an S-Line clear case and the bottom portion of the case does not fully cover the white bezel portion under the home button.
Like so

I have ultra hybrid and it covers the whole thing

Yes, the Ultra Hybrid does cover the whole white bezel.

Most reviews on Amazon claim that the heart rate sensor doesn't work all the time with your case.

I've tried the heart rate sensor with all cases, they all work as long as you follow the instructions and just press gently.

I'm disappointed the edges don't have much tpu on the slim armor cases. I like to have a good grip, especially on my note

I have the tough armor, and while I like the case (especially for the sale price), the stand is VERY flimsy, even though it is metal. the hinge that connects to the plastic case, seems as if it will just fall off is you wiggle it too much.

The kickstand is not metal, it is cheap thin plastic. In the review I state for the slim armor I said that it has come off numerous times since its held theres no support in the hinge. It's easy to pop back on, but can be annoying since you have to take the case ofd to put it back on.

A tip to prevent it from coming off, hold the hinge area while you try to take it out so that it doesnt come off the hinge.

2 complaints about the Sigen tough armor:
1) flimsy, worthless kickstand. seidio does it right with their surface cases
2) kept the case in pocket with car keys and the back is already scratched up everywhere.

Yea the kickstand is a p.o.s. At first I thought I'd rather not have it, but there are times when I need a kickstand so I'd rather have it then have nothing.

The tough armor also Is tad alippery. The main contact points for your Palm and hand should either have grips points or be made of rubber.

It's very sleek but also very slick, and the volume/power buttons should have more of a bump, or lettering to allow for better differential feeling vs the rest of the sides of the case. I have to always look at the buttons to make sure my fingers are in the right place.

I bought the ultra hybrid, neo-hybrid, and slim armor. Does anyone else have some sloppiness on the left side of the ultra hybrid? Also notice some sloppiness with the neo-hybrid. I lent my cousin my sim armor until her cases come in so I cant comment on that one.

Great videos man. Well shot and covers the information very clearly.

What do you mean by "sloppiness on the left side of the ultra hybrid"? I don't notice anything particular on mine. For what it is and the price I paid ($3.49 + $3.00 shipping), it serves well while I consider more protective cases.

 

[NogaroS4]

basically I can press on the sides and it squishes in on the left side whereas on the right it just feels solid. Same with the top..press it and it just feels solid. But press the bottom you can feel the tpu move towards the phone

I don't have that with the Neo Hybrid since the fit is just so tight but on the Tough Armor, Slim Armor, and Ultra Hybrid, because the fit is not as tight as the neo hybrid, there is a very very very slight amount of movement if you grip firmly but It's definitely not anything too serious.

I have the neo hybrid and:
- i dont like the textured feel at the back unlike the smooth back on note 3.
- finger cant touch heartrate monitor due to back cover being thick on that part of the case. Never had a successful measurement in like 50+ tries when case is on. So annoying.

Still looking for something to replace this. Sucks because I like neo hybrid in my note 3.

Am I the only one who wishes the neo hybrid came with a white back option? Love the case but don't like the dark color with my white phone.

the heartrate works with mine, you just have to be really gentle.
