What's your preferred? Genuine for stock look of more stylish with Spigen?
Spigen Neo Hybrid or genuine bumper case?

I picked up the Spigen Case Slim Armor -- liked the look of the white one & love TPU cases, even though this is a bit more plastic than TPU cases from CruzerLite.
personally the stock cases from the market seem a bit too painful to look at.... especially the yellow one, I already picked up a Neo Hybrid - Silver, I was at most considering stock grey
Those cases are freakin' gorgeous, just wish they had one in bright neon yellow.
I think the Neo Hybrid looks great, but I'm worried about the polycarbonate frame breaking. Look up the user submitted pics of the Neo Hybrid for the Galaxy S4 or iPhone 5 on Amazon. There are reports of the frame breaking near the charging port or headphone jack since it's thin in those areas.

Yea my sister's Galaxy S4 one broke. They apparently reinforced it with the new revision. But both my mom's and my sister's paint job did not hold up well and started peeling. I'm probably going with the Ultra Hybrid instead.

Have you tried seeing if they'll replace it under warranty?
They are. I didn't get any response from their email customer service so I ended up using Twitter to contact them.
Wow thats a pretty big concern for me if thats the case. The case looked very appealing and had good color schemes. I don't care too much about the case peeling but as long as it doesn't break then I'm okay. I probably won't get it just incase unless Spigen sends a replacement without question incase anything happens.
They did revise it... as seen here:

But can't tell of they did this for the Nexus 5 version since it's just renders.
I would have gotten a genuine bumper if they were, a: available and b: came in white.
Seriously, bright yellow and red but no white? Gone for a spigen ultra hybrid, seems to keep the angles of the official bumpers but lets me see my white phone

I was disappointed with Nexus 4 genuine bumper: ugly, power button remains pressed (I had to cut with a cutter), bezel and chrome keys peeled off...
Poetic slimline bumper for the n4 was perfect, for me anyways. Fitment, looks, and colors were perfect. And the price was better too. They have them for the n5 available, being shipped in a few weeks.

Personally I didn't like the poetic bumpers. They felt very cheap in terms of the buttons as well as the bumper itself. It provides no grip to the bumper itself.
You get what you pay for I guess
