Whats the difference btw this and the SLIM ARMOR case - aside that this doesnt come in a white option (for a white Nexus5)

The Neo Hybrid is very slim but it doesn't keep the shape of the phone. It makes the Nexus 5 look like an iPhone. I have not used the Slim Armor but I have read that the case is slightly thicker than the Neo Hybrid, it is harder to put on, and the buttons are very sensitive. Other than that, both cases looked very good.

The Spigen Slim Armor case has much more hard plastic on the back & sides. There is no smooth rubberized design on the back of the Slim Armor. In my opinion the Neo Hybrid is much more tailored, like a tuxedo. And the Slim Armor is a bullet proof vest.

From looking at the slim armor case I think the only difference is this one comes with a metal piece that goes around the case. I think it's just for decoration. It isn't very sturdy so it doesn't protect the phone much.

Your answer would be best directed to the manufacturer. However; at a quick glance, I see physical differences like a raised rim around edge and camera area.

None. They are the same, only the one at Amazon costs less by $10. Depending upon shipping costs and your patience, the Amazon buy is a good deal. I have had my for two weeks and for once, I have no qualms about a case. This one is excellent (for me anyway).

I don't know. I was very disappointed with the performance of the one I got. I tried every way possible to make it operable, but the only use I have been able to make of it is a protective case for the Nexus, and for that, it is perfect.

My white case is still very white. I would first think about how you treat your phone and if you couldve put it somewhere that made it change colors: asphalt, chalk or something. Then, I would check the material. If it's chalky and really synthetic, rubbery material then I would return it for the bad quality but only if you're sure that you didnt cause the discoloration.

Depends what color you want, its your preference. If you ordered a white phone, then get a white case.

The outer case is black the white is the inside cover so u only see the edge of the White the black is a silicon that can be used or not but white does not protect the phone its only a replacement cover for back to cover battery only

Hello David, the case is very light and transparent. I don't care for thick cases. In addition to being light, this case is somewhat of a soft, bendable plastic. I have the white Nexus 5. Cheers!

There is no difference since it only has 3 buttons on the back of the phone. The case will make no difference. When in doubt, google it.

Aside from the cosmetic differences, on the Spigen site it suggests that the Slim Armor has a better protection because of the material used to make that case. You can check out the information on Spigens site, they even have videos show casing the different cases. I would link you myself, but I'm unsure how Amazon handles direct linking to competitors.

I have no idea why there is a difference in price. I saw the black and white case at Sam's Club, but not the blue. I really like the black and white case with my white iPhone 5s.

Both models are sold here. If you click on the picture with the hinge and screen side door, the model name is different. The case without the screen side door are called Slim Armor case while the ones with the screen side door are called Slim Armor View Case. The prices are different, too.

They are both slim. This may sound dumb, but the reason I chose the neo hybrid over the slim armor is because it was a little bit more expensive (I believe $24.99 for slim armor, $29.99 for neo hybrid). I also opted for neo hybrid because of the simple, subtle, and clean look and overall appearance. I was reading a few reviews for the slim armor, and it seems that everyone who bought it say it doesn't add too much bulk to their phones, which I would say about my neo hybrid. The only real downsides I've read from the reviews of the slim armor is the lip around the front edge seems a little too small for them and the hard plastic back cover (the part that goes over the black rubber TPU casing) shows scratches easily if you're not careful. Some even say that that same hard plastic cover collects fingerprints often... one person even commented on how the fingerprints require more than a t-shirt to clean them off. Maybe I've said a little more of an answer than you may have wanted, so I apologize. Overall, the two cases are both slim and both offer great protection. But in my own opinion, I think the neo hybrid may be a little slimmer and sleeker than the slim armor. I hope this helps.

As of January 10th the color you see if you look at the Nexus 5's case in Brown is not correct. Look at the description images and every other model they display and that is the color brown you will actually receive (if you get brown). Wasn't an issue for me but I liked the one they displayed for the N5 more. Additionally the power button is a bit hard to press (not sure about other phones) which can be important because the cover won't shut off or turn on the display. I'm looking into using Tasker to try and imitate the behavior currently

I hear it is thinner. I agree with the first answer, and would deffinately wait for a Bear Motion case. I love mine on my first edition Nexus7, and would get one again. in fact, I'm thinking of getting another one in red, just for a change.

Right now I think theres only black and white slim armor view casesGo to Spigen website. If there is no colored view cases there then they wont be anywhere on Amazon. The view Case is a relatively new thing from Spigen. Def an awesome case
