Here is one of my four cases Spigen Slim Armor in gunmetal. I need more cases, having options is nice. The photo quality isn't great but it was taken with my wife's S5.

Yes I have it since day 3 of having my G3.
I would say it adds about 5mm to thickness, 4mm to height and 4mm to height.
I have small hands but it feels fine for me and the outside finish makes gripping it really easy, I would have to be really clumsy to drop it. Forget 1 handed usage though unless you have some big ass hands.
My only negative feedback would be the screen cover, it's awesome that it covers the screen and protects it and it is not a flimsy thing,it is really well constructed, but as everyone knows when it comes to screen protectors and covers it is hard to find the ones that don't affect visibility. Not to say that this one does, I feel like I can see everything fine however in direct sunlight you will see the cover, I don't know how to explain what you see, but just to say that you will notice the cover in direct sunlight.
On another note,I haven't felt that the screen cover is affecting the sensitivity in any way, it is responding better than I thought it might.
And finally,the usb and headphone covers are a bit hard to open, but that's because they seal so good. I like having these covers because I remember from all my other mobiles how lint,dust and all manner of things sometimes land up in these holes.
Cheap case, very good protection is all I can say.

Some pics of different Verus cases. Will post better later. Using the iron shield is like having a Neo Hybrid in steroids, design is really well made with those little dots around the back and the aluminum frame, its very slim so it doesn't add any bulk to the G3.

I still love my Bodyglove case. It's a hard two-piece case the perfectly slips over the phone. The red looks really nice. I've had it for a short while, still like it. Dropped the phone a few times no damage. Although once on a hardwood floor the bottom of the case popped off (kind of like when you drop a phone by itself the battery cover pops off).
Here's the original thread about it...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1473047
I dropped mine on concrete from 5 feet in the high gloss silicone case from vzw on day 2. It's still flawless.....
I use the standard kickstand case on htcpedia. Has a beltclip. Case is slim and tight. Doesn't cover the very top or bottom.

I'd like one too. I usually use the silicon one from VZ if I have one on but I can't stand how cheap it is. And I wouldn't mind one that's thinner too. Really just to protect against scratches and keep the camera lense off of the surface or a table lol. This phone feels great without a case, not so great with one. Does anyone know the thickness of the silicon ones? I see that the seidio cases are 2.0 - 2.2 mm thick

Incipio has two sweet cases for under 30 bucks. One is a little bit bulkier than the other but both are much smaller than the otterbox case. They both come with screen protectors as well, just know that they are about 1/8 inch short all the way around. Check out there website.. Incipio.Com
These are smaller than Seidio as well but offer great protection.

It's very good quality. It's a two-piece design that slide and lock together so it will not fall off when dropped. Also, there is felt on the inside of the case so your phone doesn't get scratched.

I saw these the other day when I was looking, they look pretty nice, but I was wondering if the power button is hard to push cuz it looks like its covered
The two piece case actually makes it easier to hit the power button and volume buttons. The feather case makes it more difficult. I really haven't been using my feather because of this fact.

How about something like the otter or seido active? Only you could paint the outer shell part. I'm thinking I'm going to paint mine again, this time white. I painted it the first time when I had some expensive paint mixed up and it was better then wasting it. It came out really well, plus matches one of my firearms. I think the black and white will look better together, but the coyote tan looks nice too.

I have a safe full of em but that one is my baby. Nothing fancy and probably the cheapest of the lot, but was my first.
The case is pretty damn good. The holster broke but was replaced with proof or receipt. (Thats why I always use Google checkout). The case itself has absorbed many drops. Had the otter box been out I probably would have gone that route for better protection, but the seido gives good protection for a somewhat slim package.

I don't have a case for my phone, otherwise I'd post it.
I'm contemplating about getting a slim case though. But I have a car mount, and then a desktop dock. I know that if I got a case, these would be rendered useless.
This is true my bezel around the screen has began to break off. So I have no choice other than put a case on it. I have already broke one and would like to make this one last

The description says pu leather, that's polyurethane leather, also known as "pleather". Another way to say fake leather made from a plastic material.
It might not look bad in person, and given how thin it will be it's probably more protection than real leather.
I don't really mind that most phone accessories aren't real leather, but I do wish the sellers would say "leather-look" instead of leather.

I'm sure that dBrands will make a vinyl skin that looks like carbon fiber and improves the grip. They have great reviews for all their skins on the Nexus 4 thread. No impact protection of course but excellent scuff/scratch protection, easier to grip, and good looking.

I recall someone in the forums of one of the older phones I owned, might have even been the Note 2, got some 3M type carbon fibre vinyl sticker, of sorts, and covered the stock cover with the stuff. Looked pretty sweet, not sure how well it would work on the Note 3 cover considering it has that fake stitching, but if you could find some cheap enough, it could be worth a go. What have you got to loose?

my Baseus Yuppie......
Just got mine today. Overall i'll say it's ok. The quality of the cover feels a little more plastic as compared to the original but once you snap it onto the N3, you can't really tell cos it's fits very well. The one plus point about this cover compared to the original is that it does not get any finger prints and does not feel oily. The textured surface is just right IMO. Does not feel too rough. Attached some pictures for those interested.

I just got my Samsung Note 3 a week ago, and earlier I received my Borderline bumper from Poetic to go along with it! After installing the case and using my phone for the day, I have to say my first impression is very positive.

The case consists of hard plastic coupled with a gray dense rubber that provides a small bit of shock and drop protection. The favorite thing about having a bumper like this is that it covers the metallic ridges on the side of the Note, which I found personally to be ugly. With this bumper on, the phone has a uniform black look that I find much more appealing.
The volume buttons on this case feels snappy and clicky. The power button, on the other hand, is mushier and you’ll need to hit it in the middle for it to register. Another thing to note is that the case makes it slightly more difficult to take out the S Pen. These are only minor complaints, though, and the good outweighs the bad in this case.
As you can see here, there is a pronounced lip on both the front and the back of the case. This lay-on-table ensures both your front screen and the rear camera lens aren’t touching the table’s surface.
The Note 3 is a sliver-thin phone, and the Borderline adds little thickness or heft at all, only a few millimeters on either sides. From the pictures, you can see the Note’s slim profile persists in the Borderline. Unless I’m seeking more protection from my case, I can see leaving my Note in this minimalistic case.
Anyone who is looking for a simple, unobtrusive bumper case for the Note 3, be sure to check out the Borderline.

Thank you for the post and pictures. I am going to pick this up. Glad that Poetic release this bumper.

I really want to know if this bumper will work with the Samsung wireless charging back.
If anyone sees this mentioned anywhere, please repost it.
EDIT: I sent an email to Poetic to ask this. I'll post the answer, but I will be amazed if they know.

It is snug fit based from the picture. Very Simple bumper case. I bet it will not work with tempered glass screen protector. I will post the answer once I got this case in 2 days.
Just ordered one for the hell of it. It's only $10 do we shall see!

Does this case work well with the official Samsung Qi charging battery door? My understanding is the door is a bit thicker than stock and has prevented people for using normal cases.
What does it feel like? Looks like hard plastic. I'm looking for a grippy texture. I wouldn't mind having something grippy on the sides and a textured back
I use one of these on my nexus 4. Its saved it a few times.
Nice pics and review picked one up as others for 5 bucks , can't beat that ...........this will make case 6 ............ to the collection................
Just ordered one as well, good find.

Yep. I had one on my S4 and now on my Note 3. I absolutely love the MIME glass. Because of my stylus I might try the feather glass if this one has to be replaced. The Ghost glass is .32mm thick and the feather glass is only .15mm thick. My stylus works just fine but there is the slightest of offset and thinking the thicker glass may be the culprit.

Amazing! Harder to scratch then the phones screen and feels as smooth or smoother. One thing though. These glad protectors have an oleophobic coating to keep fingerprints showing. Don't use anything but water and a microfiber cloth to clean the screen. Even the screen cleaning solutions can break that down and never ever use a glass cleaner like windex with ammonia or alcohol in them.

I am using the Zagg Tempered Glass protector and looks great. Can't even tell that it's on the phone. Very easy application.
The Anker one is nice just got it yesterday from Amazon and it was under 20 bucks

Ditto. Only paid $15 on Amazon. Went on with ease and our crystal clear. Can't even tell is on there. As smooth as a naked screen.

I have a Mime and it's just like the screen glass that came in the phone. Easy install. First time I have no bubbles too!

Never used zagg but I can't imagine it's any Better then the Mime glad. It may be as good but I doubt it's any better
I'm using the Flex from iLoome. I've it on my Nexus 5 & Note 3 and it's a pretty good setup. The Note 3 had to be replaced because of a known issue affecting one of the sensors. Absolutely no problem getting customer service to replace it. I just picked one up for the S5 and so far, so good.
My friend bought one for her s5 from a Verizon store and the edges curves down. I'll try to take a picture when I get a chance but I really liked it. It costs $25 though.
