Looking to order a compatible case with Whitestone dome glass. Looking for something that doesn’t sit right on top of the glass, just in case it pushes it up when in and out of the pocket and bag
Spigen. Using it with Whitestone. No issues.

Which spigen case?
I would hazard a guess that all. Except of course the ones that come with screen protector

The rugged armor supposedly doesn't fit, which is a shame as i was using that one on each and every one of my smartphones. The tough armor fits perfectly though, and i am quite happy with it. The kickstand might be useful but doesn't seem to be that robust. Time will tell.
Another favorite of mine was the ringke onyx case. That one does not fit.
I've used the Spigen Neo Hybrid in the past and currently the UAG Monarch with the Whitestone and have had zero issues.

I meant in combination with the whitestone dome glass. The upper lipp was just sitting too tight. I didn't want to risk the glass to peel up, so i deemed it as unfit.
You should have a look at this list, made for S9/S9+: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11upU3Lh5bIZl3rPAoN23gCxBDU6MwkNZyEzY01HLUeE
Unfortunately, even if one case from company works, it doesn't mean that the rest are compatible. There are even cases of the same lineup (Spigen Ultra Hybrid) which are compatible and others aren't. In my opinion, if you want an ultra-thin case, then the Torras is the best bet. The Spigen Neo Hybrid is great (got one) for slim ---but adequate- protection. If you want the best protection possible, you should be looking at the UAG Monarch (expensive) or Otterbox Symmetry & Strada
Personally, I gave up on the Whitestone and now got myself an Otterbox Strada. Partly due to VR compatibility (I do AI research and now working on a VR project) and partly due to installation problems; once with the phone sitting tool was weirdly tight (compare to the 2nd kit I got) for the phone and the other it was my fault. Also, I got tired to looking for cases that are compatible. VR
I used that list posted above and this has been my experience so far.
I can confirm that UAG Plasma will push on the Whitestone.
The Spigen Neo Hybrid does work with Whitestone, but there's very little separation between case and Whitestone. The case does extend past the added thickness of the glass, so it will protect the Whitestone if placed face down.
Samsung Alcantara case doesn't seem to push the Whitestone despite seemingly touching. Perhaps the alcantara fibers makes it look worse than it actually is, but I didn't want to take the risk.
I'm currently using a Tech21 Evo Tactical and it gives the largest space to the Whitestone than any of the previous covers above. It's also a very thin case, yet has great drop protection. Lastly, this case provides more face down protection than the Neo Hybrid.
I went with the tech21 evo tactical due to @coiledwire post above

Agreed. My Whitestone install is 99.9% perfect and I don't want a case to mess with it. I'm loving this tech21 case. Its pricy for what it is, but it works really well with the Whitestone, looks nice, and feels solid.
UAG monarch fits really well, plenty of space like the tech21 tactical
Has anyone tried the Griffin Survivor Strong Clear?
I can confirm the Whitestone Dome is compatible with the Griffin Survivor Strong Clear case.
Does anyone know if the mous cases are compatible?

As the title says. It absolutely ruins the beauty of this device for me.
I use a verus high pro shield (I think) most of the time. But when I am at home I use the phone without a casw
I use a Nillkin nature tpu case, which is clear and ultra thin. It won't do much against drops I presume but it does prevent the aluminium back getting scratched, which is what I use it for. I like it and don't think it ruins the beauty seeing as it's see through and adds virtually no bulk.

I use rinke fusion just cause I can add a lanyard to it. been like this since HTC one M8
Orzly TGSP and a dbrand skin on back. Purchased the official Google case but got tired of it because it added bulk.
Nope. I'm always very careful with my phones and purchased Nexus Protect in case of emergencies.
I use spigen rugged armor. Its slim and looks great.
I'm using a Supremery cover on long drives so I can stick my phone on the magnetic mount in my car.
Usually I hate covers because they destroy the beauty of a 700€ phone but yesterday I noticed that probably shouldn't have kept the phone in the same pocket as my comb as I now got scratches allover the upper edge. Small but visible.
I'll try to live with that...
Always wrap your thing!
Yes.
Currently on Moko Halo series Hybrid cover and rotate it with Poetic Affinity (courtesy of Poetic) and Adopted TPU from Google play store. I can't stand having a single scratch or scuff mark on my phone or screen.
Supcase Slim Hybrid for me when out, naked at home. What an amazing case, so much protection, so little bulk and a truly unique design.
This is my first smartphone without a case, but I did invest in a glass screen protector. Going strong with no problems for three months now.
Spigen Ultra Hybrid clear case.... I actually dropped my phone the day before it arrived, so it's staying put!
(Luckily no damage from the drop, but my heart skipped a beat when it fell)

I have the supcase unicorn beetle. I like it pretty well. I have ordered a Evolutive labs Crash guard bumper with rhino shield. They have some pretty impressive test videos to check out if you haven't heard of them. Just an outer edge bumper so it still shows off most of the beauty of the n6p.

That might be an advice for at least one more thing in life. ?
Yes, I agree with you it can ruin the design of this phone but I bought a transparent ultra thin hard case and a 9H glass screen protector both for € 3,00 so I won't mind throwing the case away one day although there are already scratches on the case so I'm happy with it for now.
I used the Spigen Neo Hybrid EX the first couple of weeks, but I took it off once my dbrand skin got here. Pretty happy so far
Got the adopted case. Immediatly lost all love for the Nexus. Only using the case when alcohol is involved now.
I also use the Nillkin Nature with the Nillkin tempered glass. Is the thinnest case out there IMO.
Using Adopted Frost for now just to have some protection and still see the Aluminum through it...
Which is the best back cover for our one plus 5 ? Anybody from India , Please suggest.
Spigen Rugged Armor
Been covering my phone with it for almost 3 months. Good grip, no scratches, no drops etc... Fits well with fabric front foil or anti fingerprint screen protector.

I wouldn't get the ringke the bumper just gets super messed up on those. I'd say the best thing I like about orzly is that it just feels so much secure. You can check my review on Amazon.in I have some pics uploaded there too.
I can only say don't get the Kevlar one from the official site. You can't use the alert slider in that. And it just looks bulky. Got one and using it.

I think because of the rubber sides it would feel more grippy compared to Ringke's sort of slippery material (I bought one for op3 last year). I had read all the reviews on Amazon and surely leaned towards Orzly only. What color do you have though?

I can vouch for this, since I use the same case.
I use the spiegen case
Spigen Neo Hybrid for ruggedness and Nillkin basic is a decent average in all areas.
The OnePlus 5 Bumper Case Karbon direct from oneplus is the best!
Expensive but best protection. I tested it last night Fall from 1,5 m on the really rainy road without any damage (phone or case)

I have always preferred minimalist cases, especially on a phone this gorgeous. I've always had great luck with the Ringke and Nillkin slim/thin fit cases but, this time around, when I went to pre-order my phone, the only slim cases available were manufactured by Spigen and Elago. Now, I LOVE Elgo cases because they're almost like not having a case at all, just like a skin. They offer no real drop protection, but are primarily designed for scratch protection. Absolutely no lip on the front to protect the display. Still, they fit the bill for me and are my case of choice when at home or the office. Places where I NEVER drop my phone and, if I do, it's on very soft carpet.
Anyway, I went ahead and ordered the Spigen slim case. While it DID look awesome and provided some added protection in the form of a slight lip at the top and bottom of the display, ultimately the case failed me. My phone is perfectly unscathed. However, the Spigen design results in a ton of flex and bend when removing the case. Eventually, this lead to the case cracking along the backside. Not acceptable.
Today I received my Ringke slim case (now available on Amazon) and I must say I'm VERY happy with it. The fit is perfect, almost no bend or flex when taking the case off or putting it on, and the lip of protection for the display along the top and bottom edge is even more pronounced than the lip on the Spigen model.
5/5 stars from me. An awesome, lightweight, nearly zero bulk case that offers excellent drop and scratch protection. If this is what you're looking for, look no further than Ringke's offering. Go get it!

Absolutely, it will. I used it together with the Whitestone on my S8+ and Note8.
I won't use Whitestone anymore though. Way overpriced and far too fragile. They also tend to lift up over time, even with a perfect installation and no drops or knocks. There are smarter options available, if you're patient.

Pics now attached. You can see my fingers on the other side of the phone with it face down on the table, demonstrating the lift the lip provides. The display is well-protected. This is surely the slimmest case you can get for the S9+ that still offers drop protection and guards against screen damage in the event of a fall.
You can also see that the camera is well protected. I was even able to fit a large metal plate behind the case to allow it to attach to my car mount, and I've positioned it in such a place as to avoid any interference with wireless charging. Everything works properly.
I got this case and love it as well! Even thinking about getting some of the other colors available, for days when you need a little extra protection their onyx case is not bad either, still thin but not as slim

UAG cases don't compliment the design of the S9/S9+ at all. They're functional, and offer great protection, but they're bulky and rugged-looking. The S9 is not bulky or rugged-looking. That's not its design.
Surprise! Button cutouts allow for direct access to the buttons. Keeping the feel and function of those buttons STOCK.

Sorry, didn't realize the rotation was off, but you still get the idea, I'm sure.
I found this master list of cases that work and do not work with the whitestone dome glass on Reddit. I thought it would be helpful for those here as well! There seems to be a submission form for other cases that people have tested out and whether or not they fit, so it is continually updated.
Hope this helps others as it really stinks to spend so much on that screen protector only to have a case screw it up because it doesn't fit

Thanks,
I submitted a couple models that work using the link.
Spigen skin air works perfect with my dome protector ?
Nice! Looks like they were already added.
I pre-ordered the Moment case... it's a gamble.
Did the Moment wind up fitting? I was thinking of getting that with the Dome Glass screen protector as well. Haven't seen it on any of these lists.
I have the Spigen Neo hybrid. I noticed that the corners of the screen have a little gap between the screenprotector and the case. On the sides , the gap isnt noticable.

Warning about the Moment case. The bottom 2 lips of the case touch the glass (the sides and top are fine). I don't know if I want to keep it on long enough to see if the bottom of the glass lifts....
Edit: The Moment case is not compatible with the Whitestone.
Your list says the OtterBox Pursuit series does not fit, this is false. I would say it is an exact fit with only a few millimeters of "wiggle room" but it does fit with no glass touching or conflicts with the case.
Anyone tried the Youmaker? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BMSMFC8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Looks similar to the Unicorn Beetle and was wondering if it worked. I just ordered that and The Unicorn Beetle Hybrid: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079BSJH8M/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Figured Ive never really had a problem except when I had my S7 Edge that the screen shattered twice. Hoping cause its not as curved that itll be less likely to break as long as I have a decent case on it. But still want a screen protector.

I just went with this combo as well. Whitestone said that they haven't had any problems so far with this case so I got it. Now that both are in my hands, it seems initially that it might cause problems... However I don't think the case bezel actually sits fully flush with the glass. There's a soft, flexible barrier used to keep dust out, and I think this is what keeps the comparability. I can try posting a picture if needed but from what I'm reading around I haven't seen anybody claiming incompatibility with the Pursuit so far.
Of course, I just installed my Dome today so I'll let you guys know how the pursuit goes for me.
EDIT: Fits perfectly fine. No part of the case is really touching the glass. Just be careful when putting the case on is all.

Yes it seems like the case come close to the screen, but there is a gap with a barrier which is raised off the glass letting the WhiteStone dome fit.
I have Spigen Liquid Armor, Slim Armor, Ultra Hybrid Clear, and Air Skin.
I'm very sure Air Skin can fit, and also Slim Armor cannot fit.
I need to verify Liquid Armor and Ultra Hybrid can fit. Anyone also using the same type?
Master list indicate Liquid Armor cannot fit, and Ultra Hybrid can fit. But I need a review from the users direct if there's any.
I haven't seen any reviews on the included case with T-Mobile's McLaren edition. Waiting on my McLaren to ship, and I was wondering if I should order a heavier duty case for it. I work in fire/EMS and construction, and I also tend to drop my phone a lot. I currently have a a cheap 2 piece Incipio case on my V30, the one with the soft rubber covered with a hard plastic shell, and I've beat the tar out of it. I've even forgotten it on the bumper of one of our trucks (apx. 2.5ft high), and it fell off in an area we'd have been doing about 45mph through. When we found it using Google's "Find My Phone" thing a couple hours later, it had tread marks across the case and the TGSP was totally shattered. However, my V30 still looks brand new inside the case. I suspect I got incredibly lucky with that though, and wouldn't bet on any case to reliably hold up to something like that. So, barring something catastrophic like that event, will the included case stand up to my rough lifestyle, or should I get a more "rugged" case? Also, semi-related, I've ordered one of the Alinsea almost-full-coverage TGSPs from Amazon. Has anyone tried that one with the included case, and if so, do they play nice together?
The quality of the included case is very good. I work in EMS as well but rarely drop my phone. With the way you describe your work day I would probably get a tougher case. I'm sure the included case would withstand normal falls but I doubt it would do well with significant falls. Hope this helps.
The case is nice, but made for show not toughness. And I've read a post where the user claims the metal from the McLaren logo started to come off and punctured his hand. I think it only offers minimal drop protection.
Got my McLaren, and I'll definitely be getting a different case. It's a shame, considering how slick this included one looks. Also, for anyone interested in the Alinsea TGSP, it's a perfect fit with this case if you line it up perfectly. It's almost entirely invisible, have to look closely to realize there's a screen protector at all. Feels like the unprotected screen too. Any recommendations for a rugged case that looks as nice as the included one?
I'm using the stock case until I find something worth buying on Amazon. Id like a good kickstand case that's 360 protected. The wifeproof case on my pixel XL was awesome.
But even with the stock case, I threw a plate behind it on the back, and I have no issues with the magnetic mount in my car.
Correction, the plate is sitting between the phone and case, with just a piece of tape holding it in place, nothing is seen from the outside.

Got my McLaren, and I'll definitely be getting a different case. It's a shame, considering how slick this included one looks. Also, for anyone interested in the Alinsea TGSP, it's a perfect fit with this case if you line it up perfectly. It's almost entirely invisible, have to look closely to realize there's a screen protector at all. Feels like the unprotected screen too. Any recommendations for a rugged case that looks as nice as the included one?

What brand is your magnetic mount? I tried the same thing with mine, but it barely sticks. Looking for something stronger so I don't have to worry about potholes knocking it off.
