I bought it. Absolute waste of money imo.

Why you even started a thread and miss titled it without having the product? Really placeholder?

I hot it for less than $1, haven't used it yet. Why do you say it's a waste of money?

I second this, the fit is anything but good. There are rather large gaps around the screen which defeats the purpose of having a screen protector.

It has poor fitting(large gaps on the side). Pretty thick compare to other protectors. Are you sure you got the temper glass protector? I find it hard to believe you got it for $1. I paid $6 and it's a waste.
I paid $16 for a flexible glass protector by iloome. Now that's worth the money. Great fit.

I have 0 gaps on mine, I think it's user error. If fits perfectly & I even have a case on mine. I purchased 10 of these for 10 different devices & good investment.

I have the spartan glass on the galaxy s5, and by far its the best one I've tried! I was planning to buy the same for the G3 but they are out of stock and then I see the negative reviews!
More to the point, the video actually shows the flaw everyone is talking about: Even though you have pushed the glass further from one side, the other side, still has a small gap! even ignoring that, the fact that you have left space on one side but the other side hasn't gone off the screen means the fit is not perfect. Don't get me wrong, it's still a great value but I can see where the complains are coming from.
Thank man for the video review nonetheless.

I saw no issues with it & fits fine for me. But if worse comes to worse, I'll just contact them & get it replaced. Their CS is AMAZING!
The edges of the screen protector don't go over because the gap is very minimal when I attached it, if I would have removed it & put it on again I'm sure it would have fit fine.
I'm just glad you don't even notice it with a case on it & it doesn't lift at all.

I don't know where all these rave reviews are coming from, maybe I got a bad unit from XtremeGuard. The glass protector is very thick, it feels sticky to the touch, it doesn't line up well and there's no cut out for the camera. If I hadn't ordered it a month ago for 90% off I would have sent it back. Now it will just sit collecting dust.

It can't be user error because if there are gaps its a manufacturing error not a user one. A user can't make the protector smaller.

Exactly. If you have room to push the screen protector over and it leaves a gap on one side then it doesn't fit.

All the protectors I've had that have the "gap" makes them case friendly. I prefer that myself, but to each their own I guess.

I understand your point, my only issue is the size of that gap. On other screen protectors it's almost non-existent, but this one has a big gap in comparison.

Aluminum Case with rear cutout - Love It!!!

So I've been looking around for an aluminum protective case for my note 3 since it came home. As most of you have heard from others, the full aluminum cases despite the protection, suffer from drastic signal loss. I figured I couldn't go wrong with an aluminum bumper and bought two awesome looking bumpers off ebay. One is a gorgeous solid aluminum bumper with no hole for mic but really nicely made and a thin aluminum bumper with all openings. The biggest drawback of both of these bumpers is that there is no camera protection. As all of you have noticed the rear camera is raised a bit, which makes these bumpers a no go if your laying it down on rear. I saw a full protective case on Ebay that was composed of three pieces : aluminum frame, silicone style case and aluminum rear with a cutout. I went ahead and ordered for a measly $14 and some change, thinking it wouldn't be a big loss. My package arrived today from Hong Kong and I couldn't be happier. I absolutely love it. It is the exact look and feel I wanted. For those who want a nice solid aluminum case with no signal loss I recommend you get one. I hardly write stuff on here but I felt compelled to share my experience.
Here's the link to ebay ad.

I'm pretty sure its for NFC as well. Plus it helps with reception as opposed to solid rear cases with affect reception. Personally I'd like to see someone step it up and make some premium CNC cut luxury cases lime they make for iphones with nicely made cut outs in rear. I reached out to three of those companies today , like MeeJoJo and 2 of them said only iphones and s4 's.
These are just some cnc cases for iphone 5s that I'd like to see for our phones.
I think that case is ugly and weird looking. I think it makes the phone look like a plain block of metal. Maybe it would look better if it was black anodized aluminum.
Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk
Had something similar for my previous Note 2. These metal cases tend to cause the phone signal to degrade. Hope you guys won't experience that problem.

I agree. It's about the ugliest case I've ever seen in my entire life.
I'm a fan of metal cases. I think you may have found the ugliest one of them all.
But if you like it, then good. That's all that matters.

UPDATED: LOVE MEI Ultra thin 0.7mm Aluminum Metal Bumper Frame Case

Hello, I recent brought his bumper on eBay, and I got to say, I love it very much, it adds no bulk to the phone and feels like its part of the phone instead of it as a case.
It's really slim and it protects the bezel. It lifts high enough to be able to put it face down, but the camera will touch if you put it down normally.
Also, keep in mind that the bumper uses a screw.
I had it for about a week, and have not notice any notable signal lost, but that's just me.
I got the case for 7.99, but it might be different depending on the eBay seller.
Here are the pictures of the black one, but if you guys like, I can also upload pictures of the red and silver one.
Sorry for the horrible quality, they were taken with my Nexus 7.
Could you post the silver and link where they were purchased. Thank you.

I had this case cuz I bought it from a local store. I gave up on it after two days because it is so easy to pry apart when screwed on. It makes my OCD scream because it doesn't feel like it's on there, and dust can easily get into the pried crevice.

Has anyone ever tried this case?

http://www.ebay.ca/itm/01-Metal-Cas...ll_Phone_PDA_Cases&hash=item4ace4c53bd&_uhb=1
It's a little on the expensive side, but I'm curious about a couple of things if anyone has ever used it:
1) They say that it's metal + tempered glass, so does it impede signal at all?
2) It looks thicker than the original back cover, so I wonder if it can accommodate a slightly thicker battery; even if I have to shave the inside of the case a bit.
The back is like the iPhone, glass. I can't say about reception I have not used any aluminum cover/bumper.
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
The back looks really cool, but other metal battery covers have been known to impede reception. I too would like to know if this does or not.
I've been wondering the same about this back

We the case arrived today and IMHO the quality is great and it adds the high end feel and look that I was looking for and does not affect the signal one bit. Now the cons are it does add some thickness to the phone. it basically levels out with the camera lens but slightly higher so it does not scratch. and second it you have fat fingers with no nails the s pen may bug you taking it out of phone. Ill post pics in am I left my s3 at work
Anywhere else sell them? Guy on eBay link is away until February tenth?

majority of the sellers selling these are from china or hong kong, during these 2-3 weeks, it's chinese new year, and it's hard to find a seller from the us or uk selling these, these product are too new, may be after a few months or so you may find a non chinese seller.

Cruzerlite Bugdroid case

I've had this case on my GNex, my G2, and now my G3. Always great quality and feel for the case. I usually get black but this time I got red. Normally I give this case a perfect score but I'm not liking the company logo in the center of the Android this time. I have this case and the Spigen slim armor and recommend both. This TPU case feels thinner obviously.
I feel the same way about the logo. I hope this phone becomes popular enough for them to male a few different styles. Cruzerlite has always been top notch in quality and customer service for me.

I really like these cases (I've had one on my Nexus 7 2013 for almost a year now), however, I've noticed as you mentioned the TPU is very thin. The case is great, but it has become stretched out in one corner over time and now it just looks a little weird, even though its not extremely noticeable unless you are holding the device. Are any of these issues still present in the newer ones? I was thinking about picking one up for my G3, but I don't want to to get stretched out and look bad or cause damage to the phone if it comes off during a drop.
I've never had that problem with any of the cases I've owned. Might be a tablet case problem. These cases have been solid for me.

I was considering this since the reviews say that it's still pretty slim while also providing decent protection. My question, though, is what is the texture of the case? Does it feel grippy?
I want a case that has some kind of traction in my hands so that it feels secure without me having to always feel like I should have an iron grip on it.
I have a Ghostek hard case which does offer a bit more trip than the stock back of the phone, but honestly not by much. I want something that will stay in my hands.

It has a smooth feel but not too slick. It doesn't feel sticky link the cases they had at the Verizon store. I wouldn't call the best grip but it's worked for me so far. My old Cruzerlite case on my GNex had ridges on the side that gave a better grip. The G3 model does not.
For $10 on Amazon, I think it's worth a go if to aren't looking for something that feels tacky.
It's a soft rubber feel to it. Not slippery. Best way to describe it is a "matte" feel to it. I like it.

I was considering this since the reviews say that it's still pretty slim while also providing decent protection. My question, though, is what is the texture of the case? Does it feel grippy?
I want a case that has some kind of traction in my hands so that it feels secure without me having to always feel like I should have an iron grip on it.
I have a Ghostek hard case which does offer a bit more trip than the stock back of the phone, but honestly not by much. I want something that will stay in my hands.

Do you happen to have experience with a Nexus 5 to compare?

If I remember correctly it was the same material they used on the LG Dare for the back. Yes very similar to that rubberized plastic.

I've had this case on my GNex, my G2, and now my G3. Always great quality and feel for the case. I usually get black but this time I got red. Normally I give this case a perfect score but I'm not liking the company logo in the center of the Android this time. I have this case and the Spigen slim armor and recommend both. This TPU case feels thinner obviously.

I have to agree about the company logo in the middle of the Android mascot. I used this case on the Nexus 5 and now on the G3 and I love it. Great drop protection and a nice non-slip rubbery feel

I think you'll be very happy with this case
Thanks, everyone. I had my girlfriend order it for me. I should have it by Saturday so we'll see how I like it.

I ordered one of these today also, I had one on my s3 and I liked that it had ridges on the sides to give u better grip. Hopefully this will work for me, I like that it is clear and will show off the design of this phone. This is the first phone I've ever owned that I feel like I can use it without a case because of the feel of it. Better b safe then sorry though.

I had 3 of these for my Galaxy s 3. I love them. I'll definitely be ordering a few for my G3 soon.
Just got my white one in for my white g3. Feels awesome! Everyone that ordered theirs in this thread should be excited! Thanks for the recommendation OP!

Any pictures? I'm thinking picking s couple of these up because the Android logo is the best part.

Does the case have room for a glass screen protector?

Like the peel-off film screen protectors? Yes, I have one on mine.

No I have a Spigen tempered glass one so its slightly thicker than a normal one. Its .23mm thick so I wasn't sure if it would distort the case or not.
