Hi Alexander,Hard shell I think just means the case is hard plastic rather than soft rubber. Not sure about whether you'd have to remove the original phone back.
GT i9500 is the model number for the S4. You can double check yours by going into settings (open notification shade and there's an option in the top right), then the bottom option is "about phone" and all your model info is in there.
Do let us know how you go, and how you find that keyboard. I wondered if the phone size ones were a bit small to be comfortable to use though I have just ordered a similar style case for my nexus 10 tablet as well.

Hi all, Following the recent thread I started, to which both Quentin and Aaron contributed very helpfully, I have been doing some more research online and found the following case: Koolertron Bluetooth 3.0 Sliding Qwerty Keyboard Hardshell Case Cover for Samsung Galaxy S4 S IV i9500 I did consider getting this case but I have a couple of questions first: 1. Does hard shell mean that the back will have to come off the phone for this case to work? 2. What does "S IV i9500" mean? Is it a particular model of S4 and if so how do I check if I have such a phone? Alexander Shannon
