I've seen reviews saying both are pretty good, but I wanna know your opinions. Including what you think about how they look. Thank you!

Edit: I've got a iPhone 7 Plus.

Save your time and get an Apple Silicone Case. They're the best.

But if you insist on choosing one of these two, then go with the black one. Looks more symmetric, thus nice.

I would go with the Spigen. I personally prefer the Apple silicone & leather cases myself. I like the fact that  cases offer a felt lining inside the case for added protection and fit is always perfect. I have owned Spigen cases and had them break on me.

Not ever reassuring :D

Sorry, should have been more thorough with my response. I have to agree with your comment considering mine. The Spigens I used were two piece cases and had a bumper guard wrap around. The bumper guards were very thin and after a couple case changes back and forth the bumper guard broke. All the one piece Spigen cases I used were pretty decent and held up well.

If I had to pick one of those it'd be the Spigen for sure. They've never let me down over the years.

I have that Spigen case on my iphone 7 plus and love it. Feel comfortable that it will protect my phone should I accidentally drop it.

I would also choose Spigen out of these two. However, that said, I am currently going back and forth between the Apple Silicone case for my 7 Plus and the Tech 21 Impact Clear case. I honestly can't decide which one I like more. After years of trying dozens of different cases and brands, I always go back to Apple and Tech 21 as my go-to faves

I also like Apple's silicone cases but of the ones you posted I would also vote for the Spigen.

I'm not a fan of cases where the phone is in direct contact with hard plastic as it will probably scratch or scuff the phone over time. I think the Seidio has felt on the inside but it's not the same as say silicone or TPU. I also vote for Spigen because the kickstand and seam on the Seidio case is just plain ugly.

This ....
Not to mention you'd have to hold a gun to my head before I would choose either one over an Apple case ...

I like the aesthetics of the Apple cases but I don't like how the bottom is not protected.

I have spent countless hours searching for cases and the vast majority of them are gaudy and ugly. It's even worse now because a lot of case makers are making one case model that works with iPhones 6 through 7. This means that the headphone jack cutout is present and it just looks weird with iPhone 7.
