Winner chosen, Congrats @djtoonjr.
So purchased a LG G3 but i did not end up liking the phone, it's just too small and slow for my liking. I've switched back to my Note 3. I purchased 3 cases from Amazon and since i will be returning the phone i thought i would give away the cases to someone on XDA.
Just leave a post here and i will pick someone at random on Monday Afternoon.
I will only ship to Contiguous United States, sorry.

Very generous of you, well happily pay for shipping and was looking for a caseology...
I was looking at reviews for that third case (Aura?) and was interested in it but the reviews said it was kind of loose on the phone. Was that your experience as well?
Is tough to find a good TPU Case with any sort of design but the last 2 you posted look pretty cool.
What's your opinion on them and where did you get the second one you posted (the EZ)
I'm in. Thanks
Count me in. Loving that first case.
Awesome idea! Thanks for sharing! Now I'm gonna hold off buying a case for my new phone until I see if i get one of these! Hah
Wouldn't mind the first case either.
All of those cases look pretty, in your experience, which one do you think protects the best?
Count me in!

The Aura case isn't a "perfect" fit, but it's definitely not noticeable unless you look at it closely. It never bothered me.
I got the EZ one from Amazon as well. I can post the link if you can't find it.

Very cool of you to do this. That first one, the Caseology would look great with my white G3!!
This is very kind of you. I actually got my sister the g3 but haven't had the chance to play with it yet. Was it too slow for you in general or was it lagging in some places?

If you happened to see the first nook tablet case / disguise I made, it was great at looking "dressed down", but less suitable for a more upscale or professional atmosphere (i.e. job interview, lol)

This one is at home in more dignified locales. And, there's just something about holding a real book that feels... natural.

Yep. One guy told my folks they "must not care about their child's future'" when they declined to purchase. Lol.
Now, they can be had at the local goodwill for $0.50 each, or three for a dollar.

Another work of art!
On a side note...I got suckered into the door to door encyclopedia sales...Cost me a total of like $890 bucks. But it was a lot more than just a set of books. I was basically a complete "homeschooling kit".
Wow, cool! you're genius!
The first Pink is very beautiful!

It was the right thickness. The original plan was to use the foam insert from the nook packaging. That didn't work out, wasn't secure enough, and couldn't access any buttons/ports, hence, the "broccoli bands".

X-acto knife, it took a few blades, they get dull pretty quick cutting paper. I don't like posting links outside of the forum, but, if you google "hollow out a book in 80 easy steps" the first result is the guide I used.

I love it, but there's something painfully ironic about ripping out the guts of a book to hold an e-reading device. XD
best mod EVER. I'm going to buy a nook just so I can do this. thanks
hows it going all? i was just wondering if anyone knows about this case.

it looks pretty legit, a little on the pricey side, but that doesnt matter. i went ahead and purchased a black one. reviews soon to follow once the phone and case come in. was hoping anyone could share their thoughts if they have it already. thanks!

Doesn't look like it will support NFC.
Plastic trim on top may not fit tight.
Hi!
If you see a picture around the middle, you can see the trim does not fit tight.

That was the only reason I ordered another one "Color Edge Leather Case ". I just received it by mail today but after inserting 4 cards, it became too thick and hard to close the button. Anyone else want to try this, the max is 3 cards. Also, the stand sticks out a little and it will be too easy to tear it while putting in my jean.
Overall, it is what I expected. Enjoy your case and hope top fits well.

Looks kind of cool. I have my zenus leather wallet case which I like for the most part, but this looks thinner. If this had an etra card slot I might be interested, but only 2 cards is not enough.

Anyone try any wood cases for the Note 3.

Before I get the responses of (oh this is crap, or why do you want a wooden case or something else, just remember, we all like different things)
So, I'd appreciate any and all "constructive" feedback on these cases or anything someone else might have found in terms of wood cases for the Note 3.
Thanks in advance.
Haven't tried these ones, but my partner has a wood case on her S3 and it is really nice.

I had a wood case for my S3 as well, and can't for the life of me remember where I got it, might have picked it up one weekend in Chinatown when I was out and about in the City (I live in Brooklyn, end up going to the City occasionally on weekends), so if you can remember where your partner got hers, I'd appreciate the tip.
I like the feel of the wood and the one I had for my S3 wasn't slick at all when you held it. It weathered a lot over time and so it made it worth having.
Thanks for the feedback.
Yes I got one of those they it was outstanding. Only problem was, I prefer my phone naked with the OEM wireless charging back.

Here's a link to a thread on that bumper. It comes from China so it might take a few weeks to get. I'm waiting on mine.

I bought the Sonivo fusion bumper for my Xperia Z2 and it works a treat so I automatically jumped at getting another for the G3.

It's probably my favourite style of case and I have been through quite a few.
Not sure why they call that a bumper case. lol

I think someone said that bumper scratched the phone. Just letting ya know. I was going to buy but didn't want to take a chance.
This one is different from mine, with the sliding closure, seems safer
I got a Love Mei metal bumper, with the clasp.
Fit fine over a dBrand backing and didn't even hit the Zagg on the front. However, my cell reception was awful. (Fixed as soon as I took the bumper off.)
What are you fellas using? My old one just tips over because of this behometh.
Looking for a clean looking one.

Ok your going to LOVE LOVE this
i have no idea why and how this is so cheap
but i love this stand and i love this case. Id happily pay over $20 for this. Please come back and give me your thoughts if you buy it, im sure this is a price error because it just doesnt make sense to me....
They have it in a few other colours so iv ordered a few more tonight so i can leave the stand in different parts of my home

you can find it on usa amazon if you type in nexus 6 case basezip
I use a Flygrip. It works as a horizontal and vertical stand and keeps me from dropping the phone. I having been using one since my Note 2 and always the first accessory I buy.
I use a plastic business card holder on my nightstand. Cheap and simple. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001E6EWVW/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_iapCub1KJB7Y8

or if you like bigger one
