Just got my QuickCircle case and I want to share my thoughts with everyone.
Size: Although the case is suppose to replace the back panel of the phone, the size of this case is a little bigger thicker than the original back plate. Gripping the phone is also a little bit harder and a bit uncomfortable when the flap is opened and flipped to the back while using the phone.
Colour: I got the blue one and it looks very nice with the white version of the phone.
Software: As you've probably read in official reviews of this case, the software experience is limited and are proprietary to LG's selected software. There is a vast selection of watch faces which all looks really nice. The white light that circles around the parameter looks fantastic but i only wished it looped around a few more times before it disappeared. It only did half a loop, from top to bottom either way.
Connectivity: This case comes with NFC and Qi Charging enabled wish to some may be an upgrade as i've heard that the US and Korean variant do not come with Qi charging capability.
Other Thoughts: The flap can unlock and lock the screen automatically if you wish to set it that way. However, i wish there was a magnetic strip that can keep the flap in place even if I were to flip the phone faced down hanging. I'm not a case kinda guy so this is my first time with a case, i only bought it to play with the QuickCircle function. Let's see if this case is good enough for me to keep it on at least for a while.

I'm mainly interested in the QI Charging capabilities of this cover.
If you were to detach the front cover/flap,does it appear that the back portion would look decent & have a tight seal (along the edge of the phone) w/o the front cover?
Just ordered the black one on Ebay.
$55 with free shipping.

if you look at the pics you can see that it over laps. it's not the same size as the stock back so I'd imagine removing the flap would make it look strange. a mother option might be to buy one, remove the qi Charing area and put that on a stock back. maybe?

I've been searching for it as well and I haven't had any success. I checked almost every Chinese website that carries phone cases that I could think of. I have a strong feeling that they weren't released yet. I also checked ebay and its various foreign versions.

Different To UK
Just so some know, the wireless capability is already built into the phone in the UK. Means not only is the case cheaper, no added bulk as the case doesn't incorporate anything extra for wireless charging. The back is basically a direct replacement.
Just saw the unboxing and compare of the Korean vs. international version. Looks like the qi charging points are a tad diffrent. really hope the circle case I have bought still works with the US version when released.

Yea, hoping someone can try the case on both. I could have just been mislead by the video, angles, ect.

See if I can post a quick picture. I guess it is going to depend on which version the US gets.
Here is a picture
Guy in the t-mobile thread who has the t-mobile version verified that his is like the international version (pins with a gap). So guess I am going to have to go through the hassel of returning my case to Korea.
That's very strange as they'd then have to make two different circle cases.

>> REVIEW << Galaxy Note 3 S-VIEW case - Authentic VS Fake - Lots of Pics!
Fedex just dropped off my new note 3 s-view case today, and I have to say that this is one serious high quality case.
As I have been riding temporarily on the cheap flip cases from China, I have a few days of comparison under my belt.....
and for clarity sake.....there is NO comparison.
Quick Observations:
1. This case has REAL nylon stitching. This was completely unexpected as everyone said it was molded. Well, not on the flip cover. I hobby with leather craft and know real stitching when I see it - Bravo Samsung !
2. The case is heavy ! Compared to the OEM plastic back, this case is a porker.
3. The bonded vinyl is textured but NOT to look like leather. I hear the black case has a leather texture. This does not.
4. The cheap case has a soft felt lining on the inner surface (real lint collectors), the OEM case is slick vinyl.
5. The view port on the cheap case comes pre-scratched to save you the trouble. Its CHEAP and looks it. The OEM looks like some bonded or coated plastic and it definitely feels sturdier.
6. The view port on the cheap case DOES NOT transfer any touch commands. So its only a pretty window at best.
7. The cheap case has no control element, so opening and closing the case does not trigger any s-view options.
8. The cheap case clearly has no NFC antenna. Ironically, neither does the OEM back. The OEM flip does !
9. The OEM flip case is stiff. Out of the box, the cover wants to flip closed. I am sure that will change over time.
10. Last but not least, the OEM flip case extends beyond the plastic shinny edges (really samsung ??) of the phone for added protection, vs the cheap case's flush-to-the-edge design.
OVERALL - This case is well worth the $60 they charge. I do suspect it may suffer from some edge de-lamination over time as its clear that the vinyl cover is bonded. Given where the stitching is, I can see some potential for peeling around the edges. That aside - this case is a total win for the note line and Samsung R&D hit their marks on this one. I do expect to get a black version at some point as I used a black cheap case for a few days, and the the color combo looked great (like a classic tux!).
Enjoy the pics!

What a godsend this option is. I was so sick of fumbling with my Gnote 2 flip case when trying to take a pic. This is brilliant and much easier to handle.
I like the look of this case and would happily buy one but I can't help but think it's going to be a giant pain in the ass to use the phone with it on. Does the flap get in the way of holding the phone when you're using it?

I have been using a real s-view case since last week and it's amazing. I wasn't happy with the price but I got it for $35 bucks with my discount. The case is stiff and wants to stay open or closed but is slowly breaking in.

The case is stiff, no doubt, but I do expect it to lose up similar to my experience with the note 2. This case has more substance to it so it will probably take longer. Concerning the pita factor, if u buy it from Verizon and dont like it, I believe u can return it in 14 days. I don't find the case to be an issue as I talk on the phone with the cover in the closed position. This works out better as I don't have to deal with greasy ear prints. Also, when open, I slip my pinky and ring fingers on each side of the case which makes 1 handed typing easier as you have a good grip point. I also forgot to add earlier, the case does not interfere with the back camera!
A few hours in and I am loving the sview screens - just the right amount of data and jumps right yo the alerting app when you open the cover after a text or call comes in.
It doesn't have nfc built into it. Those pins are for the s view to work. Nfc is built into the battery.

great review/pics... ordered one, 25%off using business account... not bad
I think my OCD won't let me use my Note with this case, just imagining it flapping around annoys me.
Thanks for this.
I have been checking with some of the other makers of S-View cases and got this response.
"sorry, this product do not have s-view function, and sleep/weak up model,
at moment,ONLY official case has this funcion as there is a chip in the back of case,
nobody can copy that in a few month. whatever you see in the market or ebay, all of them do not have s-view function exclude OFFICIAL Samsung CASE"
So I guess it will only be the Samsung cases that work for now.
Might be another reason Spigen are holding back.

It bothers me a little bit. It starts to feel pretty "sharp" after long use. Plus It doesn't like to stay closed unless you put it face down--albeit I've only had the case about 3 days. I'm giving it a break for right now, because it's not very useful for me right now. I use my spigen most of the time now.
does S-View adversely affect Battery Life?

seems like I will go without a casing for quite awhile...
I got the case few days ago. I got nothing good to say about it.
1. Case really is "sharp" (Thankfully not so sharp that it could cut your fingers off - but close)
2. If I'm right there is magnet in the flip (left - down corner) It's just for phone to know if flip is closed or open.. But, why it could'nt be at right side of flip --> It would be abel to hold flip closed, now it flaps freely
3. Why case have to come over phone lines everywhere, why case can't be like S3 and S4 (Nohing else changes but the flip) Note 3 comes bigger and harder to handle + when flip is turned to back of the phone, it's very hard to take s-pen out.
4. Why there can't be hole for indicator led that is top of phone next to speaker, When you attach the flip cover, you can't see that blinking LED telling you that you have missed call, or any other notifications (messages, phone is fully charged, etc..)
5. S-Hole (lol, or should it be called s-view window or something). Anyway, I think it is too a total fail from Samsung (Mean the software side of it) So to list what I think is bad in it: Weather, needs that one widget enabled to work + if GPS is off it don't update weather (if GPS is all time on, that eats you battery, you cant manually set place for weather). Alarm, why window can't show when you have next alarm? How about using camera through S-Hole - What a joke, no matter what settings you have in your camera - pictures will always be squares (3096 x 3096)
That makes the camera option totally useless for me.
PS, Im not 100% sure of everything I told there, but that is how I think. And forgive me my english, I know it's not smooth and fully right writed, but I think you'll get the point

You might want to make sure that last one is official before you drop $69 on it. Looks to me like it says "for Lg G3", the official only says "Lg G3".
Just to give a rundown of what I have found since buying my wife the AT&T LG G3 on Sunday:
AT&T sells a LG quick circle wireless charging (Powermat, not QI) case that replaces the back battery cover for $60, though I only found 1 AT&T store in my area (Birmingham, AL) that had any in stock, and my wife didn't like the color option there.
Verizon and Sprint both sell a LG Quick circle case for $50 that actually just snaps onto the phone, without replacing the back battery cover. It does not include any type of added functionality, aside from the quick circle (ie: wireless charging). I believe verizon offers black and purple, while sprint offers black and gold (at least the stores we looked in, oddly nobody in this area has the phone or any LG brand cases in white, not sure why).
My wife liked the gold color at Sprint, so I bought her that, since she refused to use the phone until we got a cover for it, since her old phone had a crack from one corner diagonally all the way to the other corner.
I know I could order her something cheaper off amazon, but I wanted to get her a case yesterday so she could start using the new phone (mostly so I could start playing with it )
Sadly, with the phone only just now coming out here, the case options in general in retail stores are sadly lacking in qauntity. makes me mad when I walk in best buy and they have multiple aisles of iphone cases, and literally 1 choice for the LG G3 (a plain black hard shell case, don't even remember the manufacturer)
Here are a few Quick Circle cases that I fould while looking around.

Agreed, I bought the offical LG Quick Circle case offered at Sprint stores and found it lacks Qi or NFC, no prongs whatsoever as it attaches over the back cover (i.e., does not replace the back cover). Returned the case to Sprint, drove up the road to a Verizon store and bought their official LG Quick Circle case (the packaging looked identical to Sprint, but had a different SKU), opened it up and it is identical to the Sprint case w/o Qi or NFC. Returned the case to Verizon and am still on the hunt for a back to add Qi to my TMo G3.
By the way, see the sell sheet I located online for the Quick Circle, no model numbers provided, but note the footnotes for distinctions between carrier versions:

So do none of the U.S. variants (AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, T-mobile) come with wireless charging capabilities out of the box, without the purchase of an accessory case?
And is AT&T the only carrier currently selling a case with wireless (even though it's not Qi) charging?
The only thing I am jealous of iphone owners over is the selection of accessories that they can choose from that are actually stocked in stores. I know we can find lots of stuff online, but I would like to see and feel the cases before I buy them. not a ton of selection right now out there in physical stores for this phone, though I guess it has only been out a few days, but still, wish they would have at the very least the official LG accessories in stock the day the phone's are released.

I think I may go with the Sprint or Verizon one in black and just waiting for my local stores to get one in. The faster they do anyways the faster I drop $50 so no hurry.
Wireless charging is really slow is it not? I bought a Nokia Qi for my Nexus 7 and it was ridiculous so I returned it.

Looks to me like there are different types of flip cases that replace the back cover. I wouldn't want a case that didn't support both wireless charging and NFC.
"Genuine LG G3 F400 Quick Circle Case Smartphone Cellphone Wireless charging New" (sorry, still can't post links)
This looks like it's for the international version? (F400), but supports wireless charging and NFC. The rim of the circle also lights up, which is a feature I'd really like to have.
Note the word of caution in the beginning to the arrangement of contacts and different G3 versions.
Has anyone seen a flip case like this that is compatible with the Verizon (VS985) version?

It's a light pattern from the screen, and the cases themselves have a thin, clear plastic ring around the inside of the circle opening that the light from the screen shines through.
At least it is on the quick circle case from Sprint.

Has anyone received their oem case yet? If so, are you pleased with it? I just ordered the phone today, but I'd like to have some feedback before buying a case. I'm not willing to spend $60 on a case, so I'm hoping the Chinese/Korean cases that are on eBay will work.
Hey folks - I was debating if I really wanted the "Extra step" of flipping the phone open to do my stuff, etc blah blah... SO....
I was wondering if they offer battery covers with wireless charging that AREN'T using the Circle Case? There's still a good chance I'll get the circle case anyway, but I wanted to explore my options. A couple Google searches didn't get any luck, hoping the community knows more than I do(highly likely)
Thanks!

Also I wanted to point out that I Have the AT&T variant... which I'm learning more and more is going to have difficulties finding a good wireless charging solution?

The official LG G3 Slim Guard Case supports wireless charging and it replaces the battery back. There is also an option of replacing the antenna in your standard US back with the dual antenna, discussed here:

As far as the AT&T variant is concerned, I dont know of any back-only cases that are not the circle case.
Personally I hated the circle case, I had it for less than a day and found it excessively annoying and always in the way to have the flap there.

That's a lot of good information. One thing I want to point out and get your feedback on is that the LG G3 Slim Guard link that you posted above seems to be for Qi charging and not PMA. I looked at that link earlier and followed the link to the eBay listing the guy said he got it from. Apparently, that particular case doesn't match up with my contacts.
HOWEVER, on that note... with the link you sent for antenna's above, does that mean I am free to get almost any case as long as I replace the wireless charging piece in the back with the antenna in that link?
Similar question - can I just replace the antenna in the stock battery cover?

Yes, everything I linked is for Qi charging, I dont know of anything available currently for PMA, but I havent looked.
You can use it on any BACK not case unless the case directly replaces the battery back, because inside the back is where the contacts are located.
And yes, as I mentioned, you can replace the antenna inside your stock battery back, but I dont know of the ramifications of using a qi antenna on the AT&T phone, there has been discussion, but since I dont have an AT&T phone I dont know. It probably wont work.
EDIT:
apologies, I guess I misread that the second post and the first post were both you (same person) I thought it was someone replying to your opening post asking for an AT&T version as well. So my information may not be terribly helpful.
Doing a lot of searching.... how can I differentiate visually between PMA or Qi?
Does PMA have the four contacts grouped in two's and Qi has all four contacts directly side by side? Or can that contact layout be for both?

The ONLY PMA case/antenna is in the Att quick circle case as of now. Your phone has the pins spread apart. The close pin grouping is only for the Korean models I.e. F400S/K/L. If you have the Att model that's the D850.

Here is a seller on eBay that sells the White and Gold battery/back covers with Wireless Qi. http://stores.ebay.com/Cellphone-Parts/_i.html?_nkw=g3 This way you can use whatever case you'd like.
The prices temporarily jump to over $100 when their stock is low. It goes down to a normal price of ~$35 USD or less when it is back in stock.
Reports have been that it works with the Sprint and Verizon models so far. T-Mobile should be fine too. No go on AT&T as they suck and only support the much less popular PMA standard.
My two Shine Gold battery covers should be arriving today for me to test out with my Nokia DT-900 Qi chargers.

Got it - so the pins layout isn't indicative of Qi vs PMA.... that is decided by the internal hardware, which from my knowledge PMA is only AT&T.
So there's no option of perhaps transplanting an antenna from a QuickCircle case into a standard case/cover? I saw talk about it - but don't know if there was any successes.

I can confirm that the cases from the eBay seller "Cellphone-Parts" DO work with the Nokia DT-900 charger. I really dislike the Shine Gold color, but I have a case covering that hideous color up. Too bad a black/titanium color back wasn't available.
So I'm running this dock currently in my car, it is Qi, works with the LG G3 just fine, but I don't like it. I used it with my Nexus 5, and with the flat sides of that phone it held fine.
http://www.amazon.com/UPGRADED-Wireless-Charging-Blackberry-Qi-Enabled/dp/B00F5XPCSC/
^^^
That IS the one I ordered, but it looks like they are sending out a different model of it now with flat arms that might hold better, but the bottom doesn't look adjustable like mine.
The LG G3 has those really narrow sides, and with the case I'm using it pops out a few times a day, leading me to look for a new one.
So the setup I have is above. What are you using?

I keeping messing with this idea aswell, I was considering this, The Air Dock.
Another part of me wants to DIY it, like this.
I use this magnetic mount in my car now with the S3 and it works great, but it doesn't charge it obviously.
I was looking at the magnetic ones in the past, just don't know how good it would hold on some of the really bumpy rural roads we have in NM.
Not to mention, does the G3 even have the metal plate or tabs inside to mount this way? I haven't seen anyone mention them.
I'm tempted to just buy 4 or 5 on Amazon and see what works the best. I REALLY like the vent mount (I can't believe I just said that) that came with my current mount.

The mount I use now came with two thin metal plates that you can either stick to the outside or inside under the battery cover. I placed the metal plate inside.
Bumpy Roads: Depending on the phone your mileage may vary. iPhone? perfect no problems...sticks fine even on a bumpy road. Something bigger, like the Note 2 and our G3, not so much. What I ended up doing was spraying the magnetic base with Plasti-Dip, the grip provided by the rubber coating made it so even over really bumpy roads my phone doesn't move. Yeah its a bit of a hack, but it looks good and works great.
With respect to the Air Dock and the DIY thing...I have no idea, they look strong. Ill have to Google a bit and see what others are saying.

That thing looks pretty cool. But thats 50 bucks just for the cradle, it doesn't actually include the charger.
I've used one of these since my Droid X:
http://www.amazon.com/Tetrax-iPhone...im_auto_4?ie=UTF8&refRID=015X7XRCR14GHF5XKKFY
Works really well even on bumpy roads and only requires a small metal disk (about the size of a dime) to be attached. On my GS3 I had a case with the disk attached that I'd use when I need navigation. Otherwise, I'd use a different case without the disk.
It would be great to be able to hack something like that for wireless charging, but I'm wondering how well it would work to have a strong magnet near your magnetic induction coils? It could affect it, but since induction works on a changing magnetic field, it may not impact the charging. It would be an interesting experiment though.
Will these charge the phone fast enough when using nav & streaming music?

Hey, I remember seeing that when I got my Nexus 5. Awesome looking holder, probably perfect, but really spendy considering you have to pay another 40 or so dollars for the charger.
Maybe I can find a good deal on one...

Yeah, I have one of these http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00I0DL2OC/ and a cheap Qi plate on order. I'm seriously considering that mod, putting a 20ga steel plate right on top of the battery to get the magnets to stick. Maybe even adding something like this to the face of the Qi brick to reduce slippage http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IH5VVHQ/

Do it , as soon as there is a reliable place to get the qi back plates from....I think I'm gonna give that a shot. I really love the convenience of the magnetic mount.
Waaaay back I had a Palm Pre that used something called a Touchstone to wireless charge and a magnet to hold it. I set this up in my car and absolutely loved it. I'm craving that setup again.

I'm not sure but this is a concern of mine as well.
The one currently in my car charges enough to charge the phone while brightness is all the way up and navigating with Waze or using Ingress.
With Streaming? Probably not. I don't stream though, I see it as a huge waste of my data. I have a podcast program called BeyondPod that downloads tons of music and other podcasts to listen to so I can use my bandwidth for other things.
Is there an official G3 car dock at all? What I did on the G2 was I took apart a wireless charger (the circle LG one) and modded it into the official car mount. It was perfect.

I got a cheap Qi charger and did some quick tinkering with it. It looks like sticking a Tetrax magnetic mount in the center of the coils will work with the wireless charging! I'll have to do a bit of work to rig it all up more permanently though.
I have a Bracketron vent mount kit that I bought at Best Buy eons ago that I'd love to retrofit with a Qi charging pad. Certainly seems to be a cheaper option than the Choetech.
RED ZMAN's experiences aside, is the Choetech still the best of the bunch? I'm not prepared to drop $50 right now, but maybe Santa Claus might leave one for me under the tree...
I wouldn't use it at all, my G3 pops out of it and bounces across the car. The other one I got, that one holds firm, charges about the same. Looks nicer too.
I modified my lg g2 car dock and added Qi wireless charging. I had to heat up and stretch the top arm so that the phone would fit, and cut off the left and right corners. The charger is from the official LG charge pad, the little round one.
Exactly how I had it set up for my G2. Its not pretty, but it works great.

Hello everybody,
now that the first HTC U11 are going to get delivered it's time to talk about some accessories as well. As the in-build case seemingly ages in shortest time, that'd be one part. But other accessories should not go unmentioned.
Thus I'm opening up this thread to - even if my U11 is not delivered yet - show you which accessories I already got or am going to get for the U 11.
First off and to have one besides the one coming in the box, I ordered an ultra slim TPU bumper case from MaxKu to have one surrounding the whole frame of the device.
In addition I already pre-ordered the Spigen Liquid Crystal Case which covers up all of the frame as well, and where I am sure my device is going to be protected really well. It is in addition Edge Sense optimized, by flats in the region of the Edge Sense Sensors (see picture attached).
Second thing I wanted to accomplish was to connect my U11 to the TV via HDMI, while still able to charge it meanwhile. My choice fell onto the EgoIoggo USB-C-Hub where I could not only connect TV to my U11 using HDMI, but also another USB device by utilization of two additional USB-ports. It is already working fine on my HTC 10 and I'm looking forward to try it on my U11 soon.
I'll try to link all products mentioned and linked in the replys of this thread to the second and third post, depending on where they fit better. Guess following this way everyone will be able to watch up the mentioned products and decide for themself which one to finally buy.
Best regards

Can someone recommend a good case that does not cover the right and left edges of the LCD? I like using apps like Sidebar that allows a custom side tray to be lauched from swiping from the edges. Very helpful when switching through my frequently used apps without visiting the home screen (and increasing the risk of the app being closed).
Thanks.

I'm curious about this too. I won't pre-order a case until I see some reviews, especially since a case could potentially interfere with the edge operations.

I agree about the included case. In past phone releases I'd guess that the case manufacturers received and used a dummy phone in order to create a case that fits. I'm wondering if the case manufacturers should have asked for/received that cheap included case as well so that they could have figured out which part of their cases needed to be unblocked/open for proper functionality.

They must have had dummies for sure. At least Spigen seems to have had one, looking at their case.

There are very few options out there! This is worrisome. The HTC 10 had far more at launch.
I'm really looking for a full body clear skin. Don't really wanna cover up that beautiful rear. Did the same with my 10 and it's been perfect (even made it easier to grip).
I think a big reason for no cases is HTC kept the u11 from leaking a heck of a lot more. They must not have released care of the phone to case makers. Seidio has some on their website coming soon

Didn't have such a Problem with the crystal clear case from Spigen on my M8. In any case the Sense Edge compatibility goes first for me. As the Spigen got this, it's what matters most for my personally.

I just got off the phone with Seidio (I've had good luck in the past) and they said, "Yes, they will have cases for the HTC U11. Expect them in 2 weeks."
I pre-ordered the Spigen Liquid Crystal in the meantime. Just letting all know.
