So, I went over an acciden I was in at the end of last month. I was riding a bicycle and was hit by a pick-up passing illegally. Crash detection worked, call the emergency services and my emergency contacts. 18 hours in the hospital, new titanium bits in my upper arm and a bunch of road rash. Healing nicely, so far.

My watch (AWU2) had a screen protector on it, which was demolished (posted in the AW reddit about it) but the watch itself only has a couple nicks on the casing. My phone (iP 15PM), also had a case and screen protector on it went flying down the road. The screen protector needed replacing, which was simple from Zagg. The case I had on it was the Spigen Enzo Aramid that was 3 days old. It was also torn up as well. Phone was fine under all that, no blemishes at all.

I had reached out to Spigen through their Enzo email address for support. I asked if there was a discount code to replace the case. They ended up asking how it was messed up and I told them the story of the crash. In the end, they took my address and original order number and sent me a brand new Enzo Aramid case. I was not expecting a free one, just like a 15% or 20% off code.

The case and screen protectors did their jobs. And it is nice when companies stand behind their products and take care of their customers. I just wanted to share a positive outcome from a negative afternoon.

And don't be like me and "not wear a helmet because I am only going down the block." Always wear a helmet regardless of the length of the trip.

Happy holidays.

I love spigen cases. I have the classic c1 case, it looks amazing and fits so well. Glad to hear you’re healing :)

I bought this one but am going to return it. The sides are too bulky but it’s looks really nice

Meanwhile my Iphone 13 pro max back glass shattered after a small fall from off of a dining table in an Otterbox symmetry case.

I requested a replacement case from Otterbox, and they didn’t have the symmetry in stock, and the case I picked instead started peeling apart in less than a week.

Spigen quality has gone downhill the last couple of years

Best case for 15 plus? Preferably should be a clear case.

I’ve exclusively used Spigen cases the past 4 years and love them ! Hopefully the healing continues with no issues !
