Hello everyone,
I wasn't expecting to be writing this so soon if I'm honest. Expected a few more days before I got rang by my wife whilst and work and asked what I'd ordered this time.
So the Orzly Pro-Fit Tempered Glass landed in my hands today (as well as their 5 pack film set, but I'll get to that later) and since we're having issues with the Official OnePlus TGSP it made sense to remove that and get straight into this protector and find out whether it's worth you lot purchasing.
A quick disclaimer I'm writing this after applying the glass and using it for a few hours. I will keep you updated in the comments below over the next week on how it holds up.
So, how does this differ to the Official 3D screen?
- Unlike the official 3D screen, Orzly have opted for adhesive on the sides and the top but not in the middle. This was an issue with their V1 screen last year as the Dot Matrix and Oil slicks were an absolute nightmare, less so with V2. After spending a few hours with this one, I can already tell they've made some significant improvements. It feels more premium than the OP3 screen did, I can't see the dot matrix under my house lighting at all and no oil slicks.
- They have incorporated cut outs for the front facing camera and sensors. The official one just has clear glass over them.
My verdict: Buy this one.
I haven't tested many yet (infact just the official and this) but if the choice is between the two like it was last year, this one wins for me. It doesn't cut into your screen and it seems like it'll work with most cases as the fitting of it is very good.
It's also a TON cheaper than the official one and its a twin pack.
Where can I buy?
As far as I'm aware they sell on the various local Amazon sites. Two of the big ones I use are Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk
Take a look at my video here if you want to see it in more detail:

No worries
Great video as usual! Thanks for sharing this! Glad I didn't pay the £18 for the official one after all the bad reports on it, waiting for my orzly one to come now!
I hope I will be able to fit it in this case

@niijonodhg you just saved me $30, thanks! I subscribed to your channel, too
Thanks for this, just confirmed what I was hoping. Another quailty product from Orzly. I still can't fathom why OnePlus made such a terrible screen protector and charged people more for it.

Thanks!!! I'll give it a try.
I bought a clear one off amazon before this one was available. It should be here by Friday. If it fits and looks as good as yours, i'll provide a link. If not, I'll buy this one. Thank you for the review!

Be sure to let people know when you try it,. According to what the actual manufacturers are saying about them though, they have written the following...
PLEASE NOTE: The Pro-Fit Glass Screen Protector is designed to work with Orzly Cases for the Oneplus 5. We cannot however guarantee its compatibility with OnePlus 5 cases from other manufacturers
This doesn't mean that it won't fit another case, but it does mean it's risky. So probably a good idea is if anyone on here tries different cases with this screen protector that we let as many people know on here which ones fit with it versus which ones didn't, as that may be our only way to truly guage this. The Orzly screen protector definitely seems like the only tempered glass screen protector that works well with the phone, so whatever I do I'm going to need to base my case around what works with that, so the more info I could get on this, the better. (I'll probably just get one of orzly 's cases anyway at first just to be sure, but would be nice to know what all the options are for later on (if there are any)

I'm planning on making another video, just as soon as a bunch of cases arrive! But if someone else can get to it sooner, then please do!
Thanks a lot for the video. Nice to hear it doesn't cut into the sides of the screen like others. What's your opinion on how deep the fingerprint scanner feels in the cutout?
Seems that Orzly is shipping them from the UK... found a similar one that ships from the united states - https://www.amazon.com/s?keywords=Oneplus+5+Screen+Protector&hidden-keywords=B07378RSWD. I've used amfilm a lot before- never any issues at all.

I've not really noticed it, the cut out is slightly wider than the the fingerprint sensor so leaves a good gap around it.

I had a small issue with the amFilm TGSP for the Nintendo Switch not staying on the Switch properly under heat. But other than that it was reasonably OK.

I've heard that that is from the dock. My son has the Switch and we had that issue. They sent a free replacement that worked for him. Might be worth sending an email.
So Orzly is better because it dont cut the screen like OP official tgsp?
For me i think Oneplus own is better because adhesive on entire visible part, even when it comes about 0.3mm top of sides. I have used Orzly products many years. V2 for OP3T was disappoined mostly thanks to glue on borders only. Screen wont look that clear as with tgsp with full adhesive or without tgsp at all. Also oil slick can come because adhesives only on sides. It depends how greatly you clean your screen.

Does anyone know where to get a cases and screen protectors? all I can find is for the international and sprint version. My phone arrives on monday
Got mine from ATT yesterday and they had a case on display, it's a dual protection case for $35, adds a little thickness to the phone. I did find this one online http:// http://www.amzer.com/Amzer-Simple-Cl...ack-P95089.htm
im currently rocking the belkin bumper from the att store. looks good and feels good
I got a "Body Glove" which is a gel inside a hard case. So far, I like it. It doesn't add as much girth as an otterbox. I also added a screen protector (yeah, I know that it's gorilla glass, but I've seen scratches on GG too).
have any pics?

Screen Protector and Case
I too was looking around for cases and screen protectors as I just got the phone today! Love it so far. Really well made and fast phone. I found an Spigen (SGP) screen protector but it's for the Sprint and International one, but since the screens are the same (to my knowledge) I sent an email asking Spigen if they are compatible and also asked then when the AT&T Optimus G cases will be released. Will update when I receive an email back.
P.S.
I tried the Belkin Bumper for this phone at the AT&T store, and truly hated it because it made the phone look super weird.
I found a good screen protector for the front and back of the phone.
Search Amazon and eBay for the screen protector: REALOOK AT&T LG Optimus G(LG-E970) Screen Protector
(I'm not allowed to post a link until 10 posts)
I ordered this today and will post here on the quality when I get them.

I can vouch for the quality of this BodyGlove case that AT&T sells.... this morning I found my phone laying underneath our kitchen table. The phone had fallen 6 feet from a shelf and our floor is made of smooth concrete. I noticed it somehow made contact with three corners of the case leaving gashes... but inside my phone was found in pristine condition when removing the case. If it works from 6 feet it will most certainly be fine dropped from your hand or out of pants pocket

Got the body glove dual protection case from AT&T for my wife's LGOG, it seems to be the best case out at the moment although I hope Seido puts out something soon since I think the case is a little too smooth/slick and it's bound to slip out of her hands at some point in time. Would like something slightly more grippy.
I got one of the cheapo snap together hard cases locally, and the tabs on it snapped when I put it on.
I would avoid these, and for now, go with either the Belkin bumper, body glove, or wait for the speck and otterbox cases to be released.
Anyone have pictures of the case they are using?
I've had good luck with GreatShield screen protectors on my previous phone (SG2). Just ordered some from Amazon, they come 3 to a pack, easy, dry install. I prefer their anti-glare (matte) version though, low drag. The glossy version showed fingerprints and had an annoying drag effect. GreatShield also makes a nice, cheap TPU case but I couldn't find one for the OG.
I have a favor to ask can some one with the AT&T Optimus G and a good scanner the higher the DPI the beater make a scan of the front and back of the phone I have a company that can produce glass screen protectors all they need is a good scan of the phone the higher the DPI the beater. just PM me if you can help. Thanks.
I ordered this case for my e970 as it clearly states that it is for the at&t model. It came in today and of course is for the LS970 instead. It won't fit but it is a cool case. I would actually recommend this of you have the LS970 model.
I also ordered 3 screen protectors from EZ Gaurdz and I can 100% honestly say they are the worst I have ever seen. I've had a couple bad ones before, but these are awful. The cut is horrid and the material is decent at best. They do not come with top and bottom peel off layers like most do.
I've requested a refund on both of the items.
******UPDATE*******
I've received a refund from both sellers for the items. If anyone wants the case they can have it. Just pay shipping. PM me if you're interested. I will weigh it in the morning and update this post with shipping info. It shouldn't be more than a couple bucks for US. I like the case and I'm sad it didn't work out, but at least someone here can use it.

I sent Joel Michael from Cruzerlite a message via Gplus earlier about making a case. I will let you know why he says. Even if he says yes it will still take a month or so before we could have one in hand.

I tried that same case, same results. The seller was prompt with the refund and told me to keep the case. Guess it's going back up on Ebay. Finally rec'd the GreatShield screen protectors, but they were too long and the cutouts were wrong. The package was labeled LG Optimus G but the fit wasn't even close. Still waiting for that refund (3rd party on Amazon).

From where?
I bought XtremeGuard protectors when they were 70% off (I got 2 of them @ $1.50/each). They are pretty good, and the same material as ArmorGuard and InvisiShield. If you are looking for low price, I would recommend them, but they do not cover underneath the center button (they have U-shaped cutouts, rather than holes). Good enough until I can get the InvisiShield on sale. I do like the feel and protection provided by the wet-apply protectors.
I also got "Black Candy Skin TPU Gel Case Cover For LG Optimus L9 P769 (T-Mobile)" from Amazon (was $1.29 + 2.94 S/H). The case is slim, and slips off easy enough, as well as slick enough to not get stuck in my pocket or pick up dirt. They do cover the buttons with indents in the thermo-poly-urethane. The volume buttons work pretty well, but the power button is a little harder to use. It works for now until they develop nicer cases for the phone.

From eBay. I can't post link because i'm noob here and forum doesn't allow me.
EDIT:
by the way, if you look for L9's screen protector / L9's case at eBay or AliBaba, you'll find it.
I got the Case today, I got this on ebay for $9.50 with free shipping and its called P769 3 in 1 Travelers hard case holster. there are 2 color available white and black with a rubberize finish on it, i got the white one for now.
I really like this case, at first i was thinking of not using the Holster because I just want a 1 piece hard back cover for the P769. but this case and holster works really well together so im going to use both. the holster can be also a landscape/portrait stand for the phone. the case slide to the holster smoothly both in and out and feel secured when they are attached together.
Pro:
Fits very well
Ports are well cut
Feels great to hold
Good build Quality
Good price
3in1
Cons
rubber Finish might chip soon
No other color
Holster clip is not that strong
Nice!
Do you have a picture of the clip?
Does the phone slide out or snap out?
p.s. This thread needs to be moved under accessories sub-forum.
Looks cool, what is that launcher you are using? or is it rooted
I got the EZguard Screen protector for $4 (4pcs) on ebay and its 100% GARBAGE!!!
The screen protector is already scratch up out of the envelope, installing instruction is somewhat not clear... I read somewhere that it supposed to be wet install but still its pure garbage i tried it. i still got 2 out of 4 screen protector.. well its $4 cant complain anymore.
Im going to get the Skinomi or IQ LIQuidskin on amazon later. they got good reviews so i think that should work.

I have this case. It does work well. The "kick stand" will prop the phone up in both landscape and portrait orientations.
The case does add a little bulk. It has a silicon/rubber soft layer that goes around the phone and a hard shell that wraps around that. Should provide good protection.

Since this case was close to what I wanted: A "clam shell" case for the phone to put in my pocket, I went ahead and bought it in black.
The clip came off very easily. Too, easily. I'd be afraid to let my phone dangle from my belt with that clip.
Anyway, as you pointed out, there was a "gear like circle" protruding from the case after the clip was taken off. I carefully removed it and made it flush with rest of the plastic with a dremel tool. I doesn't look too bad.
Bought this universal case with elastic edges for $14.99 from Target. Magnetic front clasp. Phone fits snugly, very comfortable to hold or wear in pocket-feels secure (feels cumbersome on belt). Added screen saver for L9 from T-Mobile for additional $16 (believe). Screen protector was well worth it to cut fingerprint grease.
bought 2 of these phones for my parents and was looking around for good quality cases. Just thought I'd share my findings :
1) For my mom : Tech21 White snap case for LG optimus L9 P769 (refer to T-Mobile Website, shows middle camera hole) :
http://www.ebay.com/itm/151027412771?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
2) For my dad : Body Glove case with stand (reviews in amazon are excellent)
http://www.ebay.com/itm/150992696200?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
The two companies also have several other cases available for P769 (middle camera hole version), just lookup Tech21 or Body Glove Optimus L9 case..hope that helps for members looking to find quality case for this *mid-range-and-obscure* phone. Phone's arriving tomorrow! Cant wait.
Cheers!

I too ordered these first... And also had the exact same issues you do/did. Needless to say, I sent them this email (coped word for word) and was refunded. Then I order what's in my previous post above this one, and they are wonderful! Here's the email"
After receiving 6 of these screen protectors, I must say, they suck. I was expecting to keep a few as backups later on, but no... This item is so ****ily made that I used 5 of them to even get it close. I threw the 6th in the trash, because that's about the only thing it is good for. I have never had issues installing a screen protector. Its normally pretty straight forward and easy. Not this product. The moment the backing is pulled off, the static cling attracts every dust particle in the known universe before you can even line the damn thing up. Even after lining it up...FIVE TIMES, the things still weren't cut correctly. But, I guess you get what you pay for, so my bad.

Image 2......Wireless charging???
No doubt Xperia Z3 is a beautiful design and most of the owners are inclined to show its curves, shape and color (specially the copper version) to others. I have been looking for many transparent cases around from different brands. In order to check their reviews, I looked at the reviews for xperia z2 cases by all of them.
My findings: Cheaper options available like yousave are not as transparent as they claim. The gel and silicon based cases are not at all transparent. Most of the transparent cases are susceptible to scratches. I have read good reviews about the tough naked case by CaseMate but the case does not protect the front. Then there is Spigen's case (which is not yet available yet) which has good reviews but the side bumper is made of TPU which is not totally transparent and looks a cheap look. The best reviews I found was for Ringke Fusion case however one really bad thing i have read about it is that if the phone falls, the sides of the case scratch the color off the phone. The case claims to have shock absorption but I fail to understand how they claim it.
If anyone among you have used any case before, please guide and recommend and review.
I was looking for a transparent slim case like this, but I can't find any for the Z3 only the Z3c.

Mine was ordered on Oct. 2nd, the next day I received a Tracking Information, still today it just says Label created, when I finally could reach them they told me that they had production issues and was delayed, but the new shipping date was Oct. 24th then later another one called me (left a message earlier) and said that it was 27th, when I asked if it was the 24th or the 27th, he insisted that it was next monday, that of I wanted to keep the order they will offer me a 15% discount if not they could cancel it.
Due that I think that Ringke Fusion design is the best there is for our phones I kept it, I've been using the Fusion in my past 3 phones and are of great quality, honestly I don't know what happened to them this time as is the first time I have problems with them with an order or product.
i ordered this one, really like it...

I ordered the Case-Mate Barely There case. It looks and feels OK, although protection is minimal as you'd expect. The cut out on the left is rather large as you can see, to allow the official dock to be used.
The case scratches rather easily. I marked the back by sliding my phone a few centimeters across the desk within an hour of using the case.
Overall, I wouldn't recommend it, due to how easily it scratches.
I'd be really interested to see if anyone handsome photos ofnthe Ringke Fusion case.

This case looked to be the best. It got really great reviews for the iphone 6+, hopefully this one is built as good. I ordered it from eBay, I hope it has a descent opening to use a magnetic charger. It should be in Thursday, to bad I don't have my phone yet to try it on.

Mine was ordered on Oct. 2nd, the next day I received a Tracking Information, still today it just says Label created, when I finally could reach them they told me that they had production issues and was delayed, but the new shipping date was Oct. 24th then later another one called me (left a message earlier) and said that it was 27th, when I asked if it was the 24th or the 27th, he insisted that it was next monday, that of I wanted to keep the order they will offer me a 15% discount if not they could cancel it.

The review left by the user wasn't too positive. I ordered this today on Amazon and cancelled it. :/
I finally got mine about 10 days ago, I really love it and to me it looks great, they thought of everything, it even fits the Dual Sim D6633, the left side flap fits perfectly on it, plus they thought of all the Magnetic chargers and even adapters out there so I kind of think that this is the most universal cover for our z3.
BUT, I left them a negative feedback on eBay simply because that's no way of working on the Customer service side, no responses to emails for weeks and after offering me a 15% discount if I kept the order active, I'm still waiting for them to rely to the email I sent dating yes and asking about how was I suppose to receive the credit.
EDIT: SOLD!!
Just purchased the Ringke Fusion Case, what sold it for me mostly was the cool headphone jack protection.
My previous phones have ended up getting pretty corroded in there. And after taking shots with the xperia Z3 in my pool yesterday, the headphones attached macro application, was causing the phone to go nuts as soon as water entered the jack slot.
Another nice thing which annoyed me with a similar case, is that the cutout for the lens and flash was not very big, causing horrid shots when the flash was used. This case looks to have a good space around that flash to hopefully avoid this issue.
Will keep you posted after it arrives

I have this case and I hated it from the moment I got it. It came with a round sticker in the back. By simply trying to remove it, the case got very badly scratched. I was furious. I keep my cases 100% clean and this piece of garbage got damaged by nothing and within 2 minutes of getting it out of the packaging. I was going to return it immediately, but the other cases I bought were even worse in other aspects.
This case covers all the buttons, the MicroSD/SIM card slot, and it has a plug for the audio port. The magnetic and USB ports are not covered. I had to cut the audio plug off because it was putting too much pressure on my earphones.
The lips in front of the case give the phone some protection; they're thick in my opinion. I feel this case will protect the phone in case of a drop. It's thicker than I'd like, but it's definitely not a "thick" case. The fit is not tight at all, so I believe it won't damage or displace screen protectors. It's not going to fall off the phone, but it's not difficult to put it on at all.
This is my daily driver because I haven't been able to find anything less bad. I was looking for an ultra thin, transparent case, but this one had great reviews all over the Internet.

True! When i got mine, i wondered why it's not as clear as I'd expected it. So i tried wiping it with my handkerchief to see if it's just some dirt or leftover adhesive from the protective film. To my shock, what i was wiping was a scratch already, and i made it even worse by rubbing it. Good thing i have the white z3 compact act so it's not too noticeable. But really disappointed with it's quality. I waited two months for this cause i live in the Philippines. Sigh. Rinke's Fusion case isn't as nice as it advertises.
UPDATE: apologies, there was a sticker on the rear panel. That's why it wasn't as clear and it easily "scratched". my phone looks okay now. Haha
You should take a look at http://aliexpress.com - it might takes 3-4 weeks to ship, but you will find literally a ton of transparent cases from 2$ (incl. shipping).
Got mine also from there - took 3.5 weeks.
Hi Guys,
I've seen Orzly thrown around in a few threads, mainly for their glass screen protector but also quite heavily in the OnePlus One Forum so thought I'd share a bit about the cases they have on offer. Also looks like they've got the handset and cases judging by their YouTube Channel...
There's this link on their site which pretty much sums up all the cases that they sell...http://orzly.com/nexus-6-key-info
Also here's a link to their YouTube Channel, https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC32F5reVmWnjp4UrCZY88Ng/feed
Looks like they have the real handset too as they've done an unboxing.
Going to be tough to decide with all these branded cases around. They all are similar in terms of design but have different price points.
Sorry I didn't know how to upload videos so it is embedded. Anyone who knows how to do that it would be great to have them posted to this thread.
Thanks,
Just ordered a black orzly fusion. Should be here Monday.
G3
Well I ordered this case as well since it was in stock. Turns out this thing is coming from the UK and won't be here until December 8th. :crying:
Got the orzly fusion today and can't say I like the buttons. They're flat and hard to feel.
Can anyone confirm what the cutouts on the backs of these cases are like? The pictures all show a big cutout that goes around the camera and the Moto logo, but the videos show only a cutout for the camera.

Only the camera is cutout. No other lines, circles or dimples on the back.
Got the FlexiCase today, not impressed with the buttons either. They are completely flush with the side of the case which makes no sense, not sure if they will bulge with the phone in the case. Also confirming that there is just the one hole for the camera.
^ Did you leave a review on amazon? Maybe if they get enough bad reviews, they will fix it.
G3
I did not, not a big deal since I end up with so many cases. I'll leave a review though.

LOL bit harsh isn't it
I've just sent them an email directly about the buttons, lets see what they come back with.
I am definitely not bothered about the back cut-out for the logo as to me that is pointless - why would anyone want a portion of their phone scratched especially when I'm guessing most cases which are semi-transparent or fully transparent, show the logo anyway.

Nah, not harsh at all. They show one, sell another and the buttons are horrible.
I've bought the Orzly Fusion Bumper case. And I complained to Amazon last night that the buttons are flat and it's hard to know what you are pressing until you've actually pressed it. Orzly replied with my email and told me that they've already initiated the refund for my payment.

Exact same situation. The case fit great and looked very nice. But the button issue rendered the function of the phone almost useless. They were very kind and issued my refund immediately. Solid customer service! Hopefully they make a revision because I will definitely buy it again.
They refunded my purchase too on the fusion.
N6
I got the some clear invsi case from Orzly. Alas, I don't actually have a nexus 6 yet but the case seems solid.
problem with them is the shipping is more expensive than the actual case!

I just ordered the carbon fiber tonight. It looks like it's a pretty nice case! I'm hoping it won't take weeks like I've been hearing about Orzly shipping to the US. Either way, I'm still waiting on my phone to ship so it probably doesn't matter anyway haha.
I ordered the FlexiSlim black case on Nov 18th and it arrived today. What a gorgeous case.
Sorry for the crappy pics, I had to use my tablet.

To keep from cluttering up the Deff screen protector thread, I wanted to start a thread on the Nillkin Full Body Protector with the black frame.
-I am still awaiting for my shipment to arrive, but wanted a place to discuss this protector further. Once I receive it I will post pics and details about the install if someone else hasn't by then.
I ordered one from ebay for $10.99. They can be found from $10.99 and up here:
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odk...=Motorola+Nexus+6+Nillkin+full+glass&_sacat=0
Official Nillkin Page here:
http://www.nillkin.com/english/proshow.asp?mid=2&sid=0&tid=0&cid=1&scid=13&id=5109&page=1
Its been noted there appear to be 2 versions of images on the ebay listings, both saying Nillkin, but the official Nillkin page above shows the image that has the larger cutout by the speaker for the proximity sensor it seems, while the other ebay image shows a cutout separate for the proximity. Perhaps one of the images is from an early test run, and it has been revised to the newer design on their official site?
P.S. I know there is a thread for "tempered glass screen protectors" with posts regarding this protector, but I wanted a place to only discuss this particular product and share images/reviews of it specifically.
Interested as this states its specifically made to deal with the curve on the N6 screen.
20+ days for shipping?! That pretty ridiculous seeing as how people are ordering protectors from the same region and having them shipped halfway across the world in half the time.
when you do receive it please let us know the total shipping time also. Thanks

The other brands are from the same region, but they have them sent to a warehouse in California to allow faster shipping. Mine was shipped on the 20th and I live in Ohio, so we'll see how long it takes to get here (and hopefully it arrives safely from overseas).
Just ordered a couple will post my experience, my replacement N6 hasnt been too kind to tempered glass protectors as just about every single one has had HALO, only one that didnt was the vzw protector but that was very fragile and cracked after a wk.
Just ordered one for my phone! I will post some feedback when it eventually arrives.
Ordered from this person: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nillkin-C...750?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item33a14da66e

Remember that in China they just manufacture the products and after that the only difference is the retail packaging.
I had a Nillkin glass protector on my m8 and it was awesome. Great quality and very thick. Whether or not the N6 one is good or not who knows but they do make a good product.

Since I always use a case, not sure if these would play well together. I guess a SP that goes to the curve on the side of the screen but not beyond is better for case users.

I have the Ringke Max case and it doesnt lip inwards towards the screen as much. Its support to allow screen protectors, so I hope this one applies too.
the graphics may me questionable.
but i use nillikin SP on all my devices, their quality is one of the better ones out there.

Guys, really? Its just a graphic illustration of how theirs is "better". Its not supposed to look real. You'll see similar illustrations on nearly every screen protector site.

I would guess that it is a similar/same size as the deff. I use a diztronic tpu case, which has a lip & the deff fits perfectly inside that lip. So perfect that you can't see the edge of the protector. Sorry for the plug of a different brand, just comparing as I think they would be the same size.
Mines in IL 6 hours ago via tracking. I'm in Ohio. Should have it in 1 to 2 days.
I bought one directly from the store in China, should be here super soon. But I'm holding out on it...cashed out a lot for my InvisibleShield HDX and not risking another glass halo TGSP. Will wait for @ryancell to post
