So I have been looking at some of the Covers offered on the new Samsung S5 and have decided this time round I wont be getting an S View Cover after having one on my Note 3 . It did a job protecting the phone ,but I found it to be a real burden when wanting to take some quick photo's . Especially with Young kids ,the moments pass so quickly .

Anyhow I was just wondering if anyone here has ordered anything (Cover wise) for their S5 as yet and if so what as I am looking for a couple of ideas . I have not seen anything in stores as yet so I have gathered I will have to order online more than likely .
 
Have a look at the Spigen cases, convinced a friend to get one :). I'll be getting one once I've got an S4 or S5 later in the year
 
I have had two spigan covers since I purchased my s4. The neo hybrid covers look awesome, best cover I have seen for the galaxy phones.

But it doesn't last long especially if you remove the cover often. The plastic is weak I broke the plastic on the first one, ordered a replacement and broke that one as well after a few months.

Currently on my second spigan cover, this one is a shell type and not the two piece type which I had first aka the neo hybrid cover.

If you after looks get a spigan neo hybrid cover, looks the best and doesn't add mass to the phone. It won't last long though. But maybe this issue is fixed on the s5 cover
 
Well after looking in various stores over the past week and finding nothing other than the S view covers and some horrible gel covers I went ahead and ordered 3 Spigen covers from abroad , now just to wait for them to arrive .Ill be keeping 2 of them and the 3rd will be for my wife .

I ordered them using Amazon , I'm hoping to receive them in the next week or so .
 
If I paid the extra R30 for normal delivery it would have been here by now
 
Does anyone know where to get the original Samsung S5 S view cover in metallic green? Takealot.com has white and black at around R400 but not the green. Or looking for a generic cover that works exactly like the original with the sleep/wake function and S view window.

I have looked in almost every store in the big shopping malls in CPT, no one has the green (also would prefer not to pay the R700 they are asking in shops since Takealot is cheaper just doesn't have the colour).
 
Well I received my 3 Spigen covers today (A neo and 2 Ultra fit covers) , the Wife has claimed the Neo so im left with the Ultra Fit covers which I actually prefer so far anyways . Really nice and they came with screen protectors as well .

I got the Electric Blue and the Copper Gold .Ill try posting some actual pics later on . All in all at around R170 each and they are genuine (came with little authentication certificates and serial no's),plus considering they came with quality screen protectors as well a good buy . Certainly much better than any of the covers Iv seen thus far down here in Durban anyways .The cover has a nice lip in the front which protects the screen nicely even when putting the phone down face first .
 
I saw those , actually saw someone selling some on bidorbuy (don't know if they are genuine though at that price point) ,they look great ,but I was after something very thin that would not add bulk to the phone , so I am happy with the Ultra fit Spigen . It does the job I need it for , was priced well ,came with the free screen protector and it does not add too much bulk to the phone , so really happy with it thus far .
