Trying to get a head start on accessories before I get the phone, lol.
Does anyone own the High Gloss Silicon Case available direct from Verizon. It comes in 3 colors. $19.99 each.
They have a sale this weekend, buy 3 items get 20 percent off, buy 5 items get 30 percent off.
I was planning on getting the screen protectors directly from them also, and maybe an extra STANDARD size battery.
What do you guys think?
Here is the Verizon link:

oy that's expensive.
honestly, i'd just reccommend checking out cruzerlite tpu cases...go checkout my thread for pics, reviews and links to their stuff..they're much cheaper than 20 bucks..that's really expensive

I coughed up the $20 for this case in black. I bought the phone just before traveling on business and did not want it naked. (I actually had just decided not to purchase another phone for a while as I had my Incredible rooted and on a stable ROM with a great kernel, etc. etc., but the LCD cracked. I suspect it was a Verizon OTA screen cracking exploit nobody knows about....)
I like how the case wraps around the Rezound. I also suprisingly like the gloss. We'll see how it holds up. I typically keep a case for a few months then decide I want something "else." Once a phone is rooted, I need to be able to pull the battery frequently while tinkering around with it, so a silicon case is a nice option, as opposed to a hard two-piece case that I'm constantly pulling apart. It feels like a "better" case than the cheaper silicon ones I can get at the stand at the mall right outside the Verizon store.
Picked up the red gloss case and so far so good I like that it doesn't add any bulk.

I tried it on in stores and it looked pretty good but honestly theres not much of a difference from the ones found on ebay
I have this same case in black and love it. I just need a holster that this case can fit into.

the standard clamshell holster that verizon sells has always worked on the silicone cases on all the phones I have had.. bionic, charge, tbolt and razr; yes i may have a problem
I have the black one aswell. I liked it ok for a cheap case... I didn't like that the camera wasn't really protected... But that's really it tbh. Love my commuter otterbox

I have the vzw one in red, got it with the phone... fits good, looks decent, not bulky. I like it.
Yep, I have the black high gloss case also. With the case on, the Rezound fits perfectly in my hand and the case adds a nice grip to avoid dropping

Grabbed the black one when I picked up the phone. Fairly nice but not worth 20 bucks imo. Once my Otterbox commuter comes in, it's going back and I'll pick up a car charger.
I picked this up from Verizon about a week ago and I love it it protects my phone and it provides a good grip and with my discount I only paid $15

Window Mount
Does anyone know if the phone fits into the verizon window mount while using this case?
I got sick of taking my OG Droid case off everytime I get in the car, so I left it off... of course that was the day I dropped it.

This one
^^Yes sir... I actually went out and got it... had a verizonwirelss gift card plus my employee discount ...
Fits nice and has a good grip...plus still easy to slide out of a pocket. (and I don't have to remove it to put it in the charger.)
that's cool but... no pink one?
and do they have them for the extended battery to?...

I was looking at that earlier. Is it a complete case with built in screen protector?
Picture doesn't exactly show much.
they don't have the 4g lte listed on their site yet but if it is like the one x cases then it looks like it does have plastic that will cover the screen
http://www.otterbox.com/HTC-One-X-D...2-83100_color=20&start=1&cgid=htc-one-x-cases
I brave it and never use cases. I find them bulky and makes the phone ugly. Lol.
What if I drop it :3
I think I might go with:
OtterBox 77-20042 Commuter Series for HTC EVO 4G LTE
Also on the Amazon site, but this one is the commuter series for $35ish
I've had my commuter series for my OG evo for over about a year and a half now... still going strong. The design is one of the best.
Does anyone have the Defender, or has anyone had the chance to try both for the OG evo? If so, which do you like the best?

What will you guys do until this case arrives? I'm thinking of buying a temp case and then returning it when the otterbox arrives cause we are getting the phone before the case. I would hate to drop my phone or put any scratches on it.
They posted the cases on otterbox website midnight Blue? Or black?

I held the Otterbox Defender and both standard and anti-glare invisibleshields in my hand while people on this board swore they weren't out yet. I even took pictures. Otterbox's website as well as their customer service reps had no knowledge of their existence then either. I remain wholly optimistic.

love the inflated shipping costs to make it look they have the cheapest prices.. while they are cheaper by a couple dollars.. 10 dollar shipping is a joke as i know that case would fit in the small flat rate usps box and thats 6 dollars. i see that a lot on ebay.. they will offer free shipping but their prices will be 5-10 more then others with shipping. im curious as to why they claim to have it and otterbox the company who makes them does not?
Guess I'll also pre-order the defender. cant wait for friday.
Otterbox Available
I just received tracking info from Amazon that my Otterbox Defender is on the way with Thursday delivery.
I am thinking about getting the Otterbox but the price tag seems a bit much. $35 for the commuter and $50 for the defender. Can anyone explain the difference between the 2?

the defender has another layer of protection. so its a little thicker. I also believe that it has a built in screen protector. it also includes a holster. htcpedia.com, would've made it a hyperlink but apple might sue me, has them a bit cheaper. I got the defender for $39.
Please share with everyone

eBay has a great selection and variety. I got the i9100 tpu case for a $1.30. The only difference is the top mic hole is in a different spot, which is easy to fix. There is also a small extra hole for the strap, but the i777 doesn't have this. It shipped from Hong Kong and takes around two weeks, but its really cheap. There are also plenty of other cases that you can choose from, just browse eBay.

Hit the various AT&T Corp Stores in your towns. All the cases they have/had for the i777 are on their clearance rack for $5 each. I've picked up 4 cases in 2 different cities for $5/each. CaseMate/Ballistic, all the good aftermarket brands that AT&T sold for $30 when the phone 1st came out. Again, this is for corporate owned AT&T stores. Have no idea about the authorized retailers.
Im using the tpu s line on both this guy and my nokia. Nice and simple, cheap, and primarily not bulky like other stuff out there.
i love my case and its cheap. doent get stuck in your pocket or collect lint. covers the whole housing. very nice tight fit. has an ok design on it. had it for awhile now and its held up great. doesnt make the phone bulky at all either. the case is just right and i love it. was worth the money for sure. i had the cheap 3 dollar silicone case from ebay and that thing sucked so bad i hated it lol. i highly recommend this case to anybody looking for one on the cheap but fits the phone nice and does wut its suppose to

Not $10 but a good deal!
I had a white Case-Mate POP Case for about 7 months but after some drops i wanted to replace it. I purchased the first one from a AT&T store for $35 the day I got my phone and didn't care about price just wanted a case to protect my phone. I recntly purchased this black one from there site for under $20 it was $19 and some change, and I ordered the phone thursday morning and recieved if from Fedex friday afternoon and that was with free shipping. So I know it's not $10, but this is a great case from a good manufacturer. My favorite thing about the case is the stand and the volume and power buttons have great feedback.

I bought this case from Ebay as well. I found the power and volume buttons difficult to push and when trying to get the volume to go up or down was difficult as it seemed to want go both directions when pressing it.
I use the AGF Magnate case. Can be found at all4cellular for $8.
Does anyone know where to get a cases and screen protectors? all I can find is for the international and sprint version. My phone arrives on monday
Got mine from ATT yesterday and they had a case on display, it's a dual protection case for $35, adds a little thickness to the phone. I did find this one online http:// http://www.amzer.com/Amzer-Simple-Cl...ack-P95089.htm
im currently rocking the belkin bumper from the att store. looks good and feels good
I got a "Body Glove" which is a gel inside a hard case. So far, I like it. It doesn't add as much girth as an otterbox. I also added a screen protector (yeah, I know that it's gorilla glass, but I've seen scratches on GG too).

Screen Protector and Case
I too was looking around for cases and screen protectors as I just got the phone today! Love it so far. Really well made and fast phone. I found an Spigen (SGP) screen protector but it's for the Sprint and International one, but since the screens are the same (to my knowledge) I sent an email asking Spigen if they are compatible and also asked then when the AT&T Optimus G cases will be released. Will update when I receive an email back.
P.S.
I tried the Belkin Bumper for this phone at the AT&T store, and truly hated it because it made the phone look super weird.
I found a good screen protector for the front and back of the phone.
Search Amazon and eBay for the screen protector: REALOOK AT&T LG Optimus G(LG-E970) Screen Protector
(I'm not allowed to post a link until 10 posts)
I ordered this today and will post here on the quality when I get them.

I can vouch for the quality of this BodyGlove case that AT&T sells.... this morning I found my phone laying underneath our kitchen table. The phone had fallen 6 feet from a shelf and our floor is made of smooth concrete. I noticed it somehow made contact with three corners of the case leaving gashes... but inside my phone was found in pristine condition when removing the case. If it works from 6 feet it will most certainly be fine dropped from your hand or out of pants pocket

Got the body glove dual protection case from AT&T for my wife's LGOG, it seems to be the best case out at the moment although I hope Seido puts out something soon since I think the case is a little too smooth/slick and it's bound to slip out of her hands at some point in time. Would like something slightly more grippy.
I got one of the cheapo snap together hard cases locally, and the tabs on it snapped when I put it on.
I would avoid these, and for now, go with either the Belkin bumper, body glove, or wait for the speck and otterbox cases to be released.
Anyone have pictures of the case they are using?
I've had good luck with GreatShield screen protectors on my previous phone (SG2). Just ordered some from Amazon, they come 3 to a pack, easy, dry install. I prefer their anti-glare (matte) version though, low drag. The glossy version showed fingerprints and had an annoying drag effect. GreatShield also makes a nice, cheap TPU case but I couldn't find one for the OG.
I have a favor to ask can some one with the AT&T Optimus G and a good scanner the higher the DPI the beater make a scan of the front and back of the phone I have a company that can produce glass screen protectors all they need is a good scan of the phone the higher the DPI the beater. just PM me if you can help. Thanks.
I ordered this case for my e970 as it clearly states that it is for the at&t model. It came in today and of course is for the LS970 instead. It won't fit but it is a cool case. I would actually recommend this of you have the LS970 model.
I also ordered 3 screen protectors from EZ Gaurdz and I can 100% honestly say they are the worst I have ever seen. I've had a couple bad ones before, but these are awful. The cut is horrid and the material is decent at best. They do not come with top and bottom peel off layers like most do.
I've requested a refund on both of the items.
******UPDATE*******
I've received a refund from both sellers for the items. If anyone wants the case they can have it. Just pay shipping. PM me if you're interested. I will weigh it in the morning and update this post with shipping info. It shouldn't be more than a couple bucks for US. I like the case and I'm sad it didn't work out, but at least someone here can use it.

I tried that same case, same results. The seller was prompt with the refund and told me to keep the case. Guess it's going back up on Ebay. Finally rec'd the GreatShield screen protectors, but they were too long and the cutouts were wrong. The package was labeled LG Optimus G but the fit wasn't even close. Still waiting for that refund (3rd party on Amazon).

It will work just fine. But why would you spend $30 on such a cheap case? If you're going to get a cheap case with a kickstand, get it from Amazon. This one looks really solid and comes only in black with a lifetime warranty and is only $8! This other one also comes with a lifetime warranty but comes in 4 different colors and it's $12! If it says that it's for the Nexus 6, it'll work on any Nexus 6, no matter where you buy it. :good:

I think you quoted the wrong person. I'm saying I'm going to try the $8 one first, and I saw the $12 one that you linked as well, and I'd try that one second. All before shelling out $30 from Verizon.

I can tell you from past experience that those cases look just like the shell combo Verizon offers but the quality isn't the same. I had both the Verizon brand and ones from Amazon on my m8 and note 3 the Verizon shell is always better. The ones from Amazon never provide a decent lip(lay on table clearance for screen), and the holster for the Amazon ones always break super easy unlike the one from Verizon. I hate overpaying for cases at carrier stores but in this case (pun intended lol) it is a difference, I've noticed on two of my past phones.
Thanks for the comments and the links!
I get a very good discount on accessories and stuff at Verizon through a "deal" with my employer so it's just a couple dollars more expensive than the Amazon cases.
I have this case and it offers absolutely no protection. I shattered my screen the 1st time it fell (2days) I just ordered a trident aegis for the new one when it gets here.

Sorry to hear - I had the similar Verizon case for both my Droid Incredible and Galaxy S III, but went with more protection for the latter, then decided to go with a dual-layer case/holster combo for the Nexus 6 due to its bulk.
IMHO, less is not more when it comes to Nexus 6 protection.

Actually I was hoping that since Verizon now has the Nexus, Otterbox would build a Defender for us..hell Verizon f#cked up the Xperia Z3 into the Z3v and Otterbox built a Defender for it(even though its plain with no design whatsoever). Now that Verizon has the 6 you'd think they would have enough of a demand for the Defender...I have the Unicorn Beetle case and I miss the full silicone skin that the OB has...oh well, rant over.

if you like the otterbox, check out ballistic tough maxx. use the code Terry30 for free shipping and 30%/$15 discount. ordered the tough jacket maxx a little while ago was $49.99 cost $34.99 shipped with the code. the case is great, had it fall out of my jeep with 6 inches of lift onto the pavement and survived without a single scratch. far better than the otterbox i had on my last phone
Ordered this CellJoy case in "red": http://www.amazon.com/CellJoy-X-Hatch-Motorola-Holster-Kickstand-/dp/B00SXF5O3W/
But when it arrived it was not even close to the vibrant red color as in the photo on Amazon. It was a dark maroon color, same as Texas A&M colors. Not bad if you are an Aggie fan, but not good if you are LSU.
My main issue is with the kickstand. The Kickstand is offset too far to the side for the large N6 so that it is very unstable when propped up in landscape. The kickstand on the CellJoy was also cumbersome to deploy and not as smooth as when I had the Verizon variant on my previous phone.
My Verizon version case/holster is tough to remove from the holster. Any tips to getting it out easier? Does it loosen a bit over time?
