Just got premium care for a piece of mind. Nearly dropped this baby a few times cause it was pretty slippery and I have sweaty palms.

I think it might save me $ from spending much more as it is encased in all glass front and back.

FYI

wireless charger is damn slow... i already kept mine in the box, too used to fast charging already...

Where did you guys buy your S6 from?

I wanted to buy from Northpoint, but they got no freebies.

buy online, you will get the phone by next day plus $50 off. check out the webstore for latest offer. need to sign up onepass if you haven't.

I'd do the same too. Maybe just a simple clear case at least.

with the soft aluminum metal surround, a plastic clear case might not save it from getting a dent. This is because the force of a drop from waist or shoulder height is unlikely to be dissipated by a minimally yielding plastic case.

To me, the minimum is a TPU material for the added shock absorption.

I got this dilemma.. a TPU case will cover the back. If you wanna show off the nice color you gotta get a plastic cover. Who is using Neo Hybrid CC here? It has a clear plastic back cover but I wanna get some comments from people using it.. heard that it yellows after some time.

Thus bros, ^^ I m using a Ringke Fusion case! See Through and Thin.

Since i was at the service ctr, might as well enquire on the Aluminium Bezel replacement cost also - was quoted $150.00

Sadly Premium Care covers only the front and back glass :(

The aluminium bezel is like the Note 2, S3 and S4 - a mid frame that can be replaced - a good design on Samsung's end but to get to it, one has to remove the back glass still.. then remove 10+ screws (you can refer to ifixit tear down guide... tedious)

Its is good, The back is definitely hard plastic and see through but the surrounding sides is a softer TPU then you fit a plastic bumper on it. It looks nice and the grip is quite good. It definately make your phone thicker but the design is nice and protection is quite good.

Sides, front and back protruding camera are protected. The back clear plastic piece is thick so that it flushes with the protruding camera.

Felt quite safe~
