Spigen cases have probably the market's best combination of affordability and durability. They do exactly what they're supposed to do. Always a perfect fit. I've used Spigen Rugged Armor cases for several years, and when I came across the Liquid Air Armor, I wondered what the difference was. Online resources weren't clear, so I picked one up for comparison. The answer is: basically no difference, other than texture.
Rugged Armor is slightly thicker but not by any significant amount (at least in my mind). Liquid Air is functionally the same, still protective and long-lasting, just a bit slimmer and lighter. There doesn't seem to be any need for Spigen to have Rugged Armor, Thin Fit, and Liquid Air as separate products. Just make Liquid Air the standard. It's the best combination of thickness and comfort, and doesn't sacrifice durability to do it. Your phone is still protected, in my experience so far.
Thin Fit: 0.95 oz
Liquid Air: 1.09 oz
Rugged Armor: 1.23 oz
However, if you drop your phone all the time, you'll want the slightly more expensive Tough Armor which is Spigen's thickest and heaviest option. I used it for one of my old phones (at the store I was in, there weren't other options available at the time) and didn't like how bulky it was, but Tough Armor is definitely sturdy.
Either way, it's hard to go wrong with Spigen.
