The case tech 21 works good for me, its slim design, its like u do,t have a case on at all, and theres the new impactology, that helps to protect it when or if it falls, its a little slick feeling in the hands, its not a soft rubber, more like a tough rubber, if that makes any sense loll, it was 34.99$ at tmobile, and it works good for me so far, just need to hold it tight, because it tends to slip sometimes
I agree great case. Makes the phone feel better in my hand. Works perfect with my glass SP

Had it for a couple of days now figure I'd give my two cents on it.
The case came in standard AT&T boxing nothing special added in. If you have ever used a tough case from Case-Mate don't expect anything new and exciting, which I think is a great thing.
The case is a two piece with the hard black plastic wrapping over the grey silicon which feels good in the hand because of the textured hard plastic cover. The installation is pretty straight forward and a overall very snug fit a bit tougher to put on than other cases. The buttons feel pretty good, the power button is a little bit easier to push because the covering makes it stick out a little more. The volume buttons a little tougher to press, but definitely not a deal breaker by any means, same goes for the camera button as well.
All the speaker holes, and ports are unrestricted and work/sound the same without.
The bulk is there so don't expect a super thin case, but it's not too big either.
Couple of my complaints is that the top and bottom sides of the phone don't the hard plastic doesn't go over, for the most part I wear slacks so pulling my phone in and out of my pocket at work is okay, but jeans or more constricting pants could be annoying because of the top and bottom lips of the case around the screen getting caught up. Also, the edges of the case around the screen also get dust around and under them as well, but that silicon for you. I wouldn't say either is a deal breaker by any means just a little annoyance at times.
The only deal breaker I can really see would be the price, $45 is a bit steep for this type of case in my opinion(Yet I bought it anyway.) , it's quality but would be a bit happier paying $30-$35.
Sorry for the crappy pictures only thing I have is an Atrix to take pictures with.
Good review thanks. I have to say that I hate that case on the Titan. I think I am going to stay naked. The phone is to nice looking and feels good as is.
I like the colour combination from that protector. Thanks for the reviews.
Anyone find any good tpu cases?
I found a couple on Amazon but most with bad reviews. Most complaints were that the cases do not fit.
I found this one.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00I86GGII/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_22zhtb0CC8DKH
It has no reviews yet and I bought it ...I don't have it yet... But let's hope it's good.
I have this one. It fits. It's snug, but it fits. The buttons are pretty hard to press though. It will do until some other options come out I guess!
If I could have any case for this device, I would want a Gumdrop Bounce Skin.
My wife has one for her Ipad air with a glass screen protector and there is nothing like it. Survives drops and a 5 year old, feels great to touch, sticks to your hand so you can use if one handed without a strap, sticks enough to a table or whatever so you can just lean it up against anything (wall, pillow, monitor, shelf, pencil holder, ...) and it stays at the same angle you set it down at, easy.
I just love this thing. If gumdrop doesn't make it, I'm going to have to bribe a silicone guy and get him to copy one for me. I think I could almost duplicate it with RTV silicone rubber if I bought two of them cut them up to fit and then did a two part mold, but it would take a bit of thinking and I don't know how well RTV silicone would last (but it would have the right shore A hardness to feel great and "stick" in all the right ways).
The best thing about the case is that while it grabs lint and stuff like most silicone cases, it does not feel bad and does not inhibit its stickiness. This might not make sense to you if you aren't acutely aware of everything you touch and how it feels (and I wish I didn't), but if you are sensitive to it, this is amazing. Now I haven't covered it in baby powder or anything, but it is amazing not having to worry about tossing it on a pile of laundry or the bed or the carpet and it not getting so covered in tiny dust that you feel like you have to wask it off. Even my otterbox for my GS4 makes me feel like that sometimes, but not my wife's gumdrop bounce, man I'm envious of that skin.
If you want here is the link to it on amz. for the ipad. they even have it in like 7 colors, I just wish they made it for the Note pro.., maybe they will.

I got my Poetic Graph Grip yesterday. I'm pretty torn about it. The fit is great, it is much better protection than the Fosmon case linked above that I have, it is comfortable to hold BUT... it is heavy!! It adds a significant amount of weight to an already large tablet. And it also seems to be a bit of a dog fur/dust magnet. Which is a problem in a house with three dogs! So I'm not sure whether I will continue to use it or not.
OK I got the tpu case.... And it's pretty good. The buttons are a little hard to press especially the power button.... Other than that it's not bad.

I usually never had a problem with them, its usually what I buy when I upgrade. But now after taking it off. I really dislike it. That soft shock absorber thing that the phone rests on apparently melts to the phone if it gets too hot. Which it does frequently. I had to peel my phone out of the case and on the back was all the stickey residue covering the back of the phone. A pain to clean. Any recommendations for a case that protects, looks better, and doesn't melt?

Spigen slim armour is a decent case. It's not too big in your pocket, doesn't stick, and has 2 piece construction for decent shock absorption.
Ah, I've seen it. Looks pretty nice. Might just say screw it and go with zerolemon lol
Great case, but too dang bulky, i love my spigen case

I have always wondered why I dont see more people using body glove cases, I have been using them for years, they are slim, look good, good quality, protect the phone well and the price is good, there are alot of other good cases out there but I found the body glove case is just as good and runs about $15, alot less then most other good cases....otter boxes suck, they are bulky as hell and never liked them, I had one a few years ago on a phone and got rid of it, my work gives me an I-phone to use and aside from the phone being a piece of s**t they make me keep an otter box on it, it makes the phone even more of a piece of s**t, LOL.....
Hahaha yeah I feel it. I took mine off my of DNA cause it just felt ****ty and I ended up shattering that phone but I have it on the g3 only because I don't wanna destroy this. I rarely drop my phones too but it only takes that one unlucky time. I shall buy dis new case
I had this case for a while and liked it...http://www.bestbuy.com/site/platinu...lack/7251018.p?id=1219260610755&skuId=7251018
I've now got the spigen slim armor and overall I like it....however the slicker back makes it not sit still when laid flat on a table or something, and the volume cutout sucks imho. But other than that a solid choice.
I picked up the Body Glove Rise case today at Walmart. I had a Body Glove on my last phone (RAZR HD) and it worked well. Dropped the phone (RAZR that is) once or twice and no damage or anything to the phone. One drop was face down and the bezel protection really did it's job. Overall, I like this case as it doesn't add much bulk at all so it still fits in my pocket comfortably. Haven't dropped the G3 yet and hopefully, never will, but this case gives me a sense of protection that I didn't have when the phone was naked. Doesn't mean I'll be less careful with it. On the contrary, I'll still continue to be cognizant of maintaining a firm grip on the phone at all times, but at least I have a better chance of the phone surviving a drop with the case than without it.
It looks nice too and now I feel like I have a better grip on the phone.
Which case did you get, the defender or the symmetry? I got the defender, and yeah, great protection, but makes the phone way too big. I was wondering if the symmetry was a little less cumbersome.
I've used otterbox commuter cases in the past and loved them, but this phone is so damn big already, I'm looking for recommendations myself.

I went from the defender to the Seidio Dilex case/holster combo. Great made case!
Sent from my LG G3
My son had his LG g3 in the OtterBox for some time, I took it out of the OtterBox to put a QI receiver on the back to surprise him for Christmas by having his phone on a QI charger when he woke up. The edges all the way around the phone or severely scuffed for the inside of that case. Not the front or the back, just the edges. He's not using that case anymore.
This is the one I'm using, similar to the OtterBox, but much nicer.
3 in 1 Rugged High Impact Hybrid Anti-Shock Pads Hard + Soft Durabl... http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MC64WP4/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_MnHQub1D00G06
I have had many cases on the g3, from Incipo, spigen, off brand cheapos and now the Defender from Otterbox. It definitely adds bulk, but by far the most protection. I feel better now, peace of mind I suppose.
Loved the slim armor spigen, but it scratches like crazy!
The Spigen Slim Armor is nice, but mine has issues with popping out of the corners sometimes. Theres a case called the Hyperion thats nice too. Dual layer but just not as protective
Anybody have anything to report on the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Pro cases?

Well I just bought the blue Otterbox Defender for my new G3 and I like it so far. I just wish the rubber outer layer was the soft silicone rubber instead of the harder rubber but it'll do.
My S6 edge will be arriving in under a week and just want to know your thoughts. I've never really put a case on a phone, but this is 1. Hugely expensive and 2. Looks a bit fragile.
I just think cases add bulk and make the phone look terrible... But if I do drop it I don't want it to smash to pieces.

I always put a slim case on my phones. The Edge seems a lot more fragile than my old S3, especially with the glass back, so this was a must for me. I also dislike bulk which is why I hate otterboxes, but a thin protective barrier is better than letting the phone fall (or land) unprotected IMHO. I usually opt for the soft TPU cases. I bought a Spigen tough for my edge and I've been enjoying it so far. It doesn't add too much bulk.
This thing is too slippery to use without a case and with the back made of glass, I put a case on it. I used a Spigen Neo Hybrid. Very slim case and gives you a bit of grip, doesn't add bulk to phone. Works with wireless charger too.
Here is a brief review of the Sammy clear bumper...
Cant get much more minimal but among all the cases I've owned I would vote it least likely to succeed in a drop but there are other factors.
The phone doesn't lose any pretty to my eyes and it does get the phone off the table both screen side and camera wart side by about .00001 millimeters. Another thing I noticed is the phone when naked is actually thin enough combined with the sloping sides along the long edges both on the screen and back side to make it so that it isn't easy to pick up off the table. Not that its hard but I had to pay just an itsy bit of attention to doing it, adding the case gives me just enough to turn it back into the ordinary thoughtless process of picking up a phone. The case is about as slippery as the phone itself but it does feel quite a bit less like it might squirt out of my hands as it acts to flatten out the curve on the back side edges which it fills it in slightly giving me more area on the to grip. This flattening out of the underside along the long edges also plays into comfort when holding the phone in landscape for extended periods. Other than that the only thing I can note is that my anus felt a little stretched forking over 30 bucks for it which I'm guessing is north of 90% profit. Still for now it is the only case I've found that leaves the pretty while at least protecting it for ordinary use wear if not drops.
Hi:
Has anyone found a reasonably high quality case for the LG X Venture/X Calilbur V9?
I love my X Venture, but I've already tried 3 cases for it. The first case-a MiniTurtle was complete garbage-unusable.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06Y2KZPD9/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
The second one, a Spevert, sold on Amazon
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073XCWJ6P/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
was almost usable, but provided minimal protection, and was also somewhat junky.
The third, a Zizo Bolt, looked to be quite well-made in many ways, and provides good protection. However, the buttons are inline or even slightly recessed from the edge of the case, and also stiff. That makes them extremely difficult to press. The case is also a little too slippery in the hand.
Does anyone know of a quality case for the X Venture? I'd prefer all TPU for grip, but two layers would be fine.
I'm using an Incipio NGP case and I really like it. I wish it was clear because I really like the design of the X venture and I would prefer not to hide it, but the case does give a nice extra layer of protection and I really like how it makes the buttons feel (the buttons on my phone require barely any force to press, which I really don't like. The case provides a little bit of extra stiffness so it makes the buttons feel a lot better. Definitely not too stiff though). It's also pretty grippy, but not quite as grippy as the bare back of the phone in my opinion.
I also tried a Speck clear case and I really didn't like it. It made the buttons feel awful and the material that it's made of - I didn't like how it felt in the hand and it's also totally smooth so it has much less grip than the bare back of the phone.
Thanks Rich. Is it fairly thick as cases go, thin, or somewhere in between?
Rich:
Thanks. Compared with other cases, is it thick, thin, or somewhere in between? Any chance you could measure its thickness? It's made of TPU, right?

It's decently thick, a little bit more than I expected, and it feels very sturdy. It's not one of those cheap thin cases. If I had to guess I would say it's somewhere around 1.5mm thick. I don't know if it's made out of TPU but the website says it's made out of a polymer material. It's flexible but still feels very sturdy.
I don't know if this will help at all but I took a picture of the back camera cutout so you can kinda get an idea of how thick the case is: https://i.imgur.com/BdDx5zo.jpg Like I mentioned before, to me it looks like maybe 1 - 1.5mm.
Rich:
Thanks again. I know what you mean-the X Venture is elegant looking, isn't it.
Mmmm..that looks like more than 1.5mm to me, but it's hard to tell. The other thing I really was hoping for was a belt clip, which the Incipio doesn't have. I will consider getting one anyways, though. I can use it on my second LG X Venture. I like the phone so much I bought a second one as a backup.
I'm emailed Armor-X to see if they have a case to fit the Venture. Why is this so hard?

Oh, if you're interested in one with a belt clip Pelican makes a heavy-duty case that comes with a belt clip I believe: http://www.pelican.com/us/en/product/phone-and-tablet-cases/lg-case/voyager/c31030 (a little bit too big for me)
Unfortunately it's not a super popular phone so our case options are a bit limited compared to, say, a flagship. Plus, it is a rugged phone so it does have some pretty good protection by itself.
