Lg G3 Bumper Case? - G3 Accessories

Does anyone here now of a good Lg G3 bumper case? I mean only the bumper part, not the back plate, kind of like the bumper Google previously sold for the nexus 4.
Thanks in advance!

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.)

New BoxWave Case

Just did a quick search for a new case. This caught my attention and thought I'd share. Going to order this when I get back from Hawaii.

Sickest case I've seen for this phone yet
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using Tapatalk 2
I have a case very similar to this one, and am very happy with it. The only difference I can see between mine and this one is around the camera and flash, mine is more open showing the trim around them where this one is just open around the lens and flash. the back is a hard plastic, and the sides are the TPU material. It fits VERY well.
Is it a BoxWave? Early BoxWave Amaze Cases didn't appeal to me. This one is well built/molded. Can't wait to get back from vacation so I can get this.
Plus I think this case would look really nice with my white cover.

What case do you have and where did you get it? I just got a good deal on a d30 band for my amaze, but it is literally the worst case I've ever used. NONE of the buttons on the case work and it slips off the edge of the phone.

This is the one I have. There are a couple of different colors on eBay from the same seller as well, including one with a smoke colored back with the black TPU sides.

Carbon fiber battery cover

has someone already discovered a carbon fiber battery cover for the SGN3?
most of these don't come out good... hardly any company use real carbon for their products.
I had two nice looking in good quality for my SGN2 - a flip cover and one battery case only - it give the device an "exclusive touch" - I miss it

There is a TPU carbon fiber back (in white and black) on Amazon but it's "hidden" pretty well; needed to do some deep searching. It's by Ginovo.

I have one that I bought from AliExpress.com and it's decent. It's not real carbon fiber, but it feels nice and it was only $7 and some change. I also bought a brushed aluminum one for the same price. I like them, and since they were cheap, I'm not concerned the carbon fiber is only a "look"
I wouldn't mind that dark blue one

I actually ended up getting one of the carbon fiber back covers on ebay, it was a replacement exchange because the aluminum one I was sent blocked signal.
I actually really love the feel it gives the phone, it looks like the kevlar on the motorola phones, and I actually returned my S-view case because of it!

Mind linking the ones that you got?

the carbon fiber one is the same as the one linked on page one for the ebay version.
I actually would send you the link, but the ebay sellers store closed down, and when that happened, I didn't think he would send me the replacement for free as an exchange, so I requested my money back. I ended up getting my money back and the next day the cover came in the mail. I felt bad, but there was nothing I could do, his ebay store closed. Plus, it was closed for a reason anyways.
I now have a carbon fiber and an aluminum back cover that I got for free!

Caseology note 3 TPU bumper case only $8.50 @ Amazon

I thought I'd share the case I finally settled on after going through 2 crappy ones. One was a metal frame and the other was all jelly.
This case is like a hard plastic but bendable enough to easily get the phone out if you want. It looks great and is really durable. I like it because you can lay the phone face down and not have to worry about the glass touching the surface.
I haven't noticed any extra heat build up, unless I'm just going nuts, like downloading a torrent and playing a game. It's only about $8.50 shipped and I would recommend this to anyone. Feel free to tell me how much you hate it or love it.

Why is it called a bumper case when it has a full back on it?

Do you know if wireless charging will work if using this case?
Had mine for about a week nice cover. The Spigen bounce case has more protection on the corners.

I have the burgundy leather one, but I'm not a big fan of it. It's not as attractive as I expected. Also, I found it too thick for me although it did seem like it would protect from drops. So if you don't like thick cases, this may not be for you.

When do you think we'll get cases for G3's without the antenna cutout?

Considering Korean G3's are the only ones with the TV antenna, I'm wondering if we'll get cases without the cutout for that. How long do you think it will be before we start to see them?
There are plenty of cases without the cut out just look on again or eBay. We don't need a OP when they are already released. These were found within 30 seconds on amazon.
Some examples

As far as the Ringke Slim case, don't expect a version for the variant without the adjustable antenna. Here is the response I received from REARTH this morning regarding creating a version without the antenna cutout:

It's a shame really. It would be the perfect case for those of us who love the minimal look. But I just can't get myself to love a case with a giant cutout for something my phone doesn't even have.

I emailed them too, because i REALLY liked their clear Fusion case. I'm still going to buy it because it's the best looking clear case I've seen so far. But I would love one without the cutout.

I'll email them too. Maybe with some growing demand they'll make one without the cut out?

Thanks. I was curious... damnit
I heard Spigen gonna make the case for international version of LG G3.
And actually, I can find out some case without antenna hole on Amazon.com
My Tudia TPU has no antenna cutout.
I think it's already available now.
I saw the picture that Spigen case without antenna cutout on a comment of other thread.
and there are alreday some case without that actually.
If you like Spigen here is the link of the post I made on another thread.

Supcase unicorn beetle

Just received this from amazon uk £6 and very impressed fits perfectly unlike IMO the ringke slim great protection all round quick video here
I got the similar one, but £12 - its got a rugged feel, adds a bit of weight (in a good way) - it has a feeling of almost granite in the hands. It will do nicely for general use until I get or need a expanded battery case.

How's the built-in screen protector? any touch sensitivity issue?

Yea I've ordered both.. Got the clear back one which was a bit more plus postage so it cost me around £12. Il return one but still gonna lose out on postage. But i like the look of the supcase more.. wasn't a fan of the one big cut out for camera and flash I preferred 3 separate cut outs but having seen your video I think it actually looks really nice like that.
