It's so identical to the tough armor version that the only difference may as well be the color.

Unlike the Tough Armor, the buttons on the Neo Hybrid stick out a bit from the sides of the case making them very easy to find without even having to look

I bought 3 Spigen cases; this one, tough armor, and the one that holds the cards in the back.

I really like the somewhat hard back rubber instead of the Spigen Tough Armor plastic

Now, I usually buy two Spigen cases for my cell phones, the Tough Armor and the Neo Hybrid

Sidenote: I ordered my wife the Spigen Tough Armor and it does come up more on the sides of the phone for added protection and ironically the back has a great sticky grip but without the "sticky" feeling.

I returned mine for a Tough Armor case.

Much thinner than Tough Armor model, but fits secure and seems like it will do a good job

A plus the Neo Hybrid has from the Tough Armor are the buttons

I usually go for functionality and safety over style by purchasing Spigen Tough Armor for my Note 7, S7 Edge, S8 and Note 9
