Is this case heavy? Does it add a lot of weight to the phone?

No, this case is not heavy. It is only 0.8oz, i don't even notice the difference.
1991362
Not significantly. There is a notable difference once you add the case but it is not burdensome
1991363
No, it is nice and sleek, I had the otter box and this feels so much better.not as bulky.

The bare S5 weighs 145 grams, the Spigen case weighs about a third of that at 46 grams, so a lil under 200 grams for everything.

Not so heavy, Phone feels very secured with it. I would recommend buying it.

I think "heavy" is subjective, but I found that the phone does feel bulky and a little heavy with the case on.

It does not give extra weight but it gives volume to the cel, because it makes the phone more thick

Case is pretty light, I think in some other reviews or answers it was estimated at 8 ounces. It does add weight to the iPad, but the textured surface and cloth lining on the inside of the cover also adds grip, I thought the iPad was slippery without the case. I have a friend who has the Apple Smart Cover and it is much lighter but only protects the screen not the back, and the back is still slippery. I am very happy with this case, I think it is a good compromise between weight and protection.

I think the phone is still reasonably sized with the case. It does add a little to the overall thickness of there phone but it is well worth the security knowing it won't break when I drop it. Which I do. A lot.

it is certainly heavier but it is not to the point where it is unwieldy. With the case it actually fits nicely in my hand. Depending on the size of your hands ofcourse

No, it doesn't really add too much more to the phone, but it definitely keeps me from dropping it so much. Especially when getting out of the car. The case goes on your belt. As far as the thickness, not much, and not too hard to get in and out.

Not at all! It is a regular heavy wooden case... But very good... I just trade in mine for a carbon fiber case... I was disappointed with the weight.

The bases are sturdy but if you mean 'heavy', then that are not. They're simply a charge port and as such are probably about 95% plastic. I have a master system and about 4 of the handsets connected to it. Never had a problem with any of it. But the phone sits high in the charger, so if you bump it, it will fall over.

No, the case is very light. I does make it not as slim, but that's expected.

Yes I have the answer to the question it is light weight not heavy I bought this for my son and he loves it very compact with the phone.

The case does add some bulk to the phone and does feel somewhat bigger in the hand. I would estimate thickness at approximately 1/16 ", bit look larger due to rollover of lip on edges of phone. Great case, just a bit bulky. If you want a good case but more like the feel of the phone, look at the Spigen Slim Armor line. I have ordered one for me as a backup

It is similar to lifeproof or otterbox cases. I do not think it is overly thick but does provide great protection of the phone. If you are looking for something more light weight this may not be the one. But if you are looking for a case that provides excellent protection to the phone this may be for you. As others have mentioned too, it is smooth enough to be able to slide in and out of you pocket.

It is not large and heavy, but it will make your phone a bit bigger in order to provide protection. But no, it's not as large and annoying as the big O.

It causes the phone to weigh down a bit but I think its lighter than an otterbox. I love this case, best one I have ever bought, and I would buy another one!!

It is quite thick, because youre not only adding the battery, but the case as well. It probably doubles the thickness of the phone. However I havnt had a problem with it.

The case it's self is not heavy at all. Once the iPad in it, it's a little heavier but my 3 year olds carry it around no problem

It functions quite well so far. I don't drop my phone as much and I don't have the case in 24/7. There has been times where I dropped my phone with the case on and nothing has been damaged. My dad on the other hand drops his phone at least once a day, whether it's a hard fall or soft fall, and his phone is perfectly fine with the case on. Overall I think it functions pretty well. The case does add a bit of weight but you will eventually get use to it after a while. I have small hands/wrists and it felt heavy at first but I eventually adjusted and as I used the case on my phone more it does not feel as heavy. It only adds some weight, nothing to major in my opinion. Hope this helps a bit! It functions quite well so far. I don't drop my phone as much and I don't have the case in 24/7.

The case barely changes the weight of the phone, it's very thin and doesn't add any bulk at all. And it will protect your case from minor falls. I was thinking just like you when I bought this case, wanted something to at least get the job done without feeling like I had a brick in my pocket, and this case does that job. Hope I answered your question!
