now it's always a difficult decision when choosing a case for your smartphone but signet has exactly what you need whether you're looking for style ultimate protection or the best of both worlds what's up everyone clayton youngberg here with android authority calm your number one source for all things android and today i'm going to review six of cygnus hottest cases for the gs4 so today we've got six signet cases and every single one of them serves a different purpose whether it be protection aesthetics or just the feel of the case now they also come with screen savers that you can apply and many people are wondering if the screen savers in fact fit inside the case so I'm installing my screensaver right now and i'll be using every single case in the video with the screen saver applied now oftentimes if you have different brands screensavers they might not be compatible with the cases you've purchased so always make sure to get a screen saver and case combo if you're ordering cases but you won't have to worry because they come with them anyways getting right into it we're going to check out our urban shield case for the samsung galaxy s4 now this is designed with actual carbon fiber and has a nice white accent throughout the entire case you simply pop the phone in and it formed fits to the galaxy s4 quite surprisingly now there's access to all the buttons including the volume home and power you also have your speaker part on the back cutout as well as camera and LED in one hole looks very very great with the carbon fiber and it just sparkles in the light next we're going to check out our cage tactile flip case now this is a very very stylish case and it also is very functional as well protects both the front and back of the galaxy s4 with a hard shell on the back and a soft flip cover on the front now it's very soft to the touch and it also provides cutouts for all of your necessities and it has a credit card or a business card holder in the front flip the front cover is sewn on and it's very heavy-duty does not feel like it's going to tear off anytime soon it provides protection for the volume keys as well we have access to our top and bottom of our phone including the charger and the headphone port as well as the mics and we can actually fold the case for a media stand it's very very nice next we're checking out our flip fiber soft microfiber flip case now this is made with microfiber so it is a bit softer than the first case case but it is still a flip cover case very durable in the back nice and soft in the front with some nice artwork on the front as well fits very nicely with the phone and looks great in the Sun of course it provides the cutouts for the LED power volume headphones microphone and charger and this one has a credit card holder as well now this one you can't use as a media stand but it makes up for it with this beautiful aesthetics just fits greatly on the Samsung Galaxy s4 and the color matches the blue color galaxy s4 as well next case up is the feel soft touch slim case now this is more along the lines of the cases that most people are used to it's just a shell case but it does have a nice rubberized coating on the outside that feels great hence the name simply snap your Galaxy s4 in and you have protection wrong along the bezel you also have access to the bottom speaker LED camera and all the buttons on the device feels very great in the hand it has a nice color it's available in multiple colors as well and it protects your Galaxy S 4 from Falls to the side and back so next we have our form high gloss slim case now the packaging doesn't lie it's very glossy that's a nice vibrant finish and it is quite slim now as you can see this is in pink but they do have other color combinations as well but many of our viewers will enjoy the pink case anyways when you slide this case on you simply snap the galaxy s4 into place you can slide it in your pocket from there like all the others it does have the power cut out volume as well and then it exposes the top and bottom of the galaxy s4 so if you drop it in lens directly on the top at the bottom you will sustain a little damage but i would feel perfectly safe dropping it on its back we have cut out for speakers as well on a nice signet logo you can see the high gloss is vibrant and it's popping galaxy s4 looks great in this case and I would suggest it to anyone on a budget next we have the best of the best with the workmate evolution case now this one's a try material extra protective case and actually comes together or comes apart into as you can see this is black and blue looks very nice and as I have the darker samsung galaxy s4 and popping it into the first layer you can already see the color match so you simply do just pop the rubber layer on and then from then you put the blue shell on and click it into place you can see there's a nice anti-slip protection on the back and that will absorb some of the impact if you drop it now this one has full protection including the corners sides and it has a deep dish bezel to help if you drop your samsung galaxy s4 face down if there's any protrusions in the ground see the deep dish is a few millimeters tall and it is going to protect your phone so here are a few tips guys out of the six cases we checked out if style is you thing I would definitely go for the urban shield the flip fiber any cash cases these have unmatched aesthetics and they don't compromise on protection at all the case and the flip fiber both have front covers so they're going to protect the front of your screen and then you can't be the carbon fiber styling on the urban shield if you are looking for a budget case that also is very stylish and looking for a few different color options I would go for the feel and the form cases these are just your Bay six shell cases but they work very very well and they look nice too but if you're looking for ultimate protection and you do want some nice aesthetics I would definitely go for the work mate case this one has unmatched protection it has that deep dish so you're not going to drop your phone and break it on a rock or anything like that if it lands screen down two layers of protection and then you can't beat the color scheme especially if you have a darker colored galaxy s4 alright anyways guys check these cases out hit up
