Im looking for thin and grippy black tpu case for my S7 but couldnt find many decent ones. I have Spigen rugged armor but its too slippery, maybe glossy surface would be better? Any one bought Olixar flexishield? It looks nice but I wanted to know if buttons works as they should.

I don't like to lose the style of the phone when I use a case so I'm always on the lookout for the thinnest case possible with enough protection all around. I usually do all my case shopping on amazon and went through two "name brand" cases until i found what I was looking for. I decided to try the calicase as it was one of the thinnest listed on amazon. I received it earlier today and I soon as I opened it I knew this was the case for me. I went with the clear black which has a nice matte texture to it so the device doesn't feel as slippery. All the cutouts are spot on and I have not had a problem with button feel or plugging in headphones/usb cable. Case is unbelievably thin but manages to have enough protection for the S7's protruding camera. Screen appears to be flush with the lip on the front of the case so it should prevent lint buildup around the edges. I have no complaints about this case and for my usage it is perfect! So if you're like me and just want a minimal case with all around protection then definitely give this one a try. I will post pics when I get the chance.

Yes, I would like to see pictures too. Though I just ordered one on amazon myself after seeing your post. So far I have tried 3 really thin cases and like all of them, but none are perfect. The thin hard case I am using now is the bomea and while I like it a lot, it has no protection for the corners, so the one you posted seems promising.

BTW, this is the most fragile phone I have used in years. I dropped the S7 the other day while working in the garage - it was on my motorcycle's seat and fell over from about 4 feet. The bomea case did its job but the top corner front glass (same plane as the samsung logo) cracked right at the edge. Without a case I imagine it would have been much worse, but the lack of corner protection on the bomea has me slightly worried. I have not had a case on any phone in my life and they have all held up to everyday drops and nicks fine. I don't think the S7 is going to.
