Hey There, I bought the extended battery and a hard case/clip with my phone from the Verizon store and I am happy with it. (It was the only option they had) Not as much protection as I might want, but covers the corners, holds on well, and looks good on the phone. I looked at the OtterBox, but that thing was a beast!!

Verizon shell / holster hard case is good
I also got the shell / holster combo hard case from Verizon when I bought the Bionic. It feels sturdy, accommodates the extended battery, and has a kickstand. Also, it still fits in the HD Dock wth the case on.

Oh yea I forgot about that one thanks for the heads up ima have to go check it out that should hold me down until other ones come out and I'm cool off the otter box that **** way too bulky for my taste

Great Holster & Cover Case Combo
This Driod Bionic Case w/ Extended Battery Support is highly recommended.

My opinion beats spending $49.99 for a Seidio Surface Extended that still isn't confirmed to be released yet.

This is the one I got from Verizon.

I'm using the Otterbox Defender case. I put the front plastic piece on and left the back piece off. Put the rubber cover on and it fit perfect.

I second that!!

I saw that thing today, fully assembled. It looks like a black brick with a phone sandwiched inside. Makes the Bionic look like a Zoolander phone.
Not for me.
EDIT: I grabbed the wrong quote. Talking about the defender case.

The other option with the otterbox case is to leave the extended battery back cover off and u can get both pieces of the otterbox to fit together almost. I have the top and bottom cliped together and the rubber outter cover holds it well

Could one of you guys post some pictures of the Otterbox / extended battery hackery? I'm on the fence of doing this myself and would love a visual.
Thanks so much!

Here you go, Bud. http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...ustom-otterbox-commuter-extended-battery.html

I cut up my otterbox defender 5 min after opening it this morning. Cut a hole in the stock battery cover to fit the extended battery like I saw someone post about doing before. Then cut the back of the otterbox itself. I'm not an expert with a dremel, so it isn't pretty. But once you put the rubber on, its all hidden. You can just feel the outlines of the cut into the case just barely if you slide your finger around the back with the rubber case on.
I used a grinding wheel on the dremel and exacto knife to round the edges and clean up my cuts

I'm a huge fan of the shell/holster combo I bought at Verizon. I didn't think I'd like it this much but it's sturdy and makes the phone feel better in-hand.

You like it because its your only option LOL. I skinned my phone with skinomi black matte fully body had to stretch it out a little bit for extended battery then bought that shell holster case. It looks better with the phone skinned and the black matte matches that case perfectly. Only issue is when you apply the skin i had to grind the inside of the case to make it fit. Yea 1/32 of a inch makes a difference the phone wouldn't fit but now it does!!!

Tpu cases say they will have a case that works with the extended battery at the end of October .

I bought the extended battery but removed it and put the phone back in the Defender case. Yeah, that thing is huge, but I've already dropped it twice with no ill effects. I'll wait on the extra battery until I have something safe to put the phone in.

Just picked up extended battery hard case from Verizon. I highly recommend it, solid build, excellent fit and not too much bulk.

Otter Box Cases

Hey guys,
Just got my Bionic and was wondering what you thought about cases.
Mainly the Otterbox Defender and Commuter. which do you like better? my problem with the Defender is the plastic bit covering the entire screen, i'd rather a regular screen protector. Can it be removed?
Any advice is appreciated, thanks!
I just got my Commuter.
It's pretty damn awesome. It is slightly larger, but is worth the protection.
I saw the defender, it's really just too big.
The Commuter's screen protector (separate that you apply) only covers the middle of the screen, not including the buttons. It feels slightly strange to swipe down the notification bar for that reason.
I just returned the Commuter. The DB is already a big phone, and either of those two cases really just add to the bulk of it. I'm going to use the phone naked for a while until some minimalist cases hit the market.
I can't believe they have the Defender available the same week the phone is released. Took them over a month to have it for the Charge. I was raging when I saw the Bionic Defender case in my news feed.
/endrant
I think the commuter is absolutely perfect, coming from someone who wore the Droid 3 naked and ended up with a spider Web screen from dropping it. + 1 otterbox for getting this case out so fast and radio shack for the 25% off!

I'm extremely pleased with my Commuter case. It actually makes the phone feel higher quality, which I didn't believe possible. The included screen protector was cheap IMO, so I'll be looking for a replacement.
Great case all around.

I love my Otterbox defender. It took some getting used to the bulk, but the protection is superior to any others, imo. Protection & functionality over sex appeal. This case isn't for everyone, YMMV.
Cut up a defender this morning to fit the extended battery and love it. I used to always break my phone at least once or twice during my contract due to dropping it. I am extremely clumsy and get the dropsies a lot. Since I started using otterbox cases 4 phones ago I have never had a problem with a dropped phone breaking, and i drop mine a lot. They just bounce now. LoL thank you otterbox. XD ill happily deal with the added bulk for the protection

What or how did you do this? Pics?
I have a defender too but would like to use it the extended battery.
I got the defender and I got used to it although its huge. When im out and about or at work i keep it on but once you snap it on and off a few times it becomes easier so I take it off while Im at home and it makes me appreciate the design a lot more. You really do get used to it and I'm saying this coming from Eris and Nexus S without cases. The only thing Im not really pleased by is the full screen protection as mentioned already. You could definitely remove it if you wanted to. having the extra inset of the defender plus a regular screen protector is definitely enough to keep Spidey from webbing your Bionic.

I got the idea off someone who did this on MDW. Used a dremel cutting wheel, a dremel grinding wheel, and an exacto knife.
I traced a rough pattern of where I wanted to cut the stock battery case, so the electronics would be covered. Left me with this after a few cuts and lots of grinding to fit the corners.
Ill warn you it is not pretty and i make a horrible craftsman. But the rubber covers all ;-)

Then I took the back cover to the otterbox and did the same thing. Once again not skilled craftsman quality. But if you do it good enough the rubber covers all and you can barely feel it has been cut
With the case on the back you can't see anything. But if you run your finger over the back you can feel a slight groove. I did the initial cuts with the cutting wheel. Then used the grinding wheel to make out more space where needed and round out sharp edges. Exacto knife was used to clean up the stuff the wheel couldn't do well.
The guy on MDW made the otterbox case bevel in near the batter to hold it in place. Mine is holding fine as is with. But I guess it is all how you cut it and where. Make sure to rinse the part off with water or use condensed air to clean the cut part between fittings. LOTS of plastic and rubber dust in the air while doing this. Don't want it getting into the phone.

In my opinion, these cases are unnecessary. My OEM gel case protects mine just fine. You guys are putting a paper bag over a Bentley....

Cases!!! (Alot of questions)

I was looking around for a case and came upon the Trident Aegis case ... looks like a cooler version of the otter box. Does anyone have it? Is it a good case? Are there any cases that support OEM extended battery?

Would love to know how this feels on this phone. I've never been a fan of cases because they make the phone bigger and the buttons never work as well. My phones always suffer for it too.
im ordering one once i get home.. provided i dont go to overboard at the bike shop after work.
I wish that made an incepio case for the revolution...

I have a CaseMate Pop! Case and I love it. It is hard shell with some softer rubber on the side for grip. Easy out of my pocket and not a lot of added bulk. A little pricey, but worth it.
Only gripe is the small piece of rubber on the right side where the HDMI slot is flimsy and not has a permanent bend in it. Other than that, awesome case!
I like the Kraken one. Well I like them both but the Kraken comes in various colors. I would like the Aegis in another color other than black.
Just got my case!!! Triton Aegis!!!! I love it! It is bulky and the screen portector that came with it wouldn't fit on phone it was too wide, besides that its great! Those are the only two cons!

Is the case a rubbery or hard and smooth plastic? I hate the body glove one bc it gets stuck in my pocket
I own the Trident Kraken and have for about a month now. I would give it a 7.5/10. Overall style is great. It looks really good (I have the blue one, wife has the pink). As for size it doesn't add too much bulk. I do not have the extended battery but assume it is less bulky than that is. All of the buttons work great. Sometimes if you press the volume button down tooooo hard it will press both of them. Both hdmi and usb are very easily accesible yet the silicone covers for them are very sturdyy. The only downfall I have for thewhole entire thing is the fact that it does indeed stick to my pocket. Now dont let that kill it for you. I have had phones that are like glue in your jeans (hehe) and this isnt like that. But it is harder to get out than just your average hard case.
Hope all of this helped. also it has a sweet kickstand that despite the amazon reviews works great.

Kraken 2?
Is the Kraken 2 thicker than this? Which would y'all suggest from personal experience?
I initially purchased this case:
gp/product/B00513JTOE/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
It's cheap and will break if you attempt to remove it. It's also bulky and covers the LED notification.
I've since gone with this case:
Revolution-VS910-PureGear-Black-Slider/dp/B007W82V2S/ref=sr_1_cc_1?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1338051595&sr=1-1-catcorr
I've been extremely happy. It's slim, sturdy, and has a nice rubberized finish that isn't overly sticky. Unfortunately, I think Pure-Gear has stopped production, as it's no longer on their site.
(de-linked because I'm a new member...you'll need to add "amazon" in the address.)
I got the Kraken II and its a nice case only disapointment was I also ordered the bike clip and it only works on the Kraken AMS. And they don't make a Kraken AMS for the Revo.
I dont understand why people like those huge cases. I have a hard rubbery case that fits very snug and is not huge. I dont want that huge thing in my pocket.
I have a regular soft gel case. I prefer these kinds of cases for my devices. It barely adds any bulk and it protects my devices quite well.

Samsung Galaxy Note II DualPro SHINE Case

Hi All,
I just got this case in the interim until I get the otterbox defender. I had it fedex overnight because I usually put my phone in my pocket. It reminds me of the otterbox commuter but not bulky and its in a silver Aluminum finish with a good feel and not a fingerprint magnet. Not slippery. Tactile buttons are responsive without any problems. Very well built dual protection case. Access ports are not covered.

Yeah the problem was that the Otterbox Defender wasn't available but all these other cases were so I had to go thru looking for a case that would fit in my pocket. The cheap tpu cases didn't instill confidence when I put it in my pocket and the Speck Candy shell case was a little better but it's rubber gray material frays when you put it in your pants. It also was more rigid than the tpu cases but I still was worried about it not being rigid enough. This case however is different and the hard shell is really rigid. No worries about putting this in my pants. The hard material is very solid and a very nice feel. Oh well still waiting for the otterbox but this will do until it gets here. Otterbox using Fedex smartpost sucks! I'm praying it gets here and not lost in the usps christmas frazzle. lol.
This one actually looks very nice. Interesting..
Wow, looks nice and sleek.
I see a seller in ebay has it for about $24.95.
Let me know how you like it when the Otterbox comes since this looks much thinner and easier to pocket.
Nice!..the color blends well with the white note 2..any other colors?..found some pink/white on ebay..
Psy, could you snap some pics of this case on your phone? Its hard for me to see how it looks with the stock images on their site. Thanks.

Finally stumbled across this case after searching for three days or so for a case for my incoming Note 2.
I just ordered it off ebay and had to cancel my other case I had ordered from Amazon. I figure the extra $8 will be well spent, and I really like the aesthetics of it. No kickstand is a positive for me.

Because the outer shell is very rigid there is very little play to move the silicone lip. You have to force it hard to move. This is not a case for changing batteries. I'm actually scared to pull the phone out of the case. I had the otterbox commuter for my old Galaxy Note i717 and the material for the outer shell of that case is less rigid than this case. my 2 cents.

Thats too bad, I have to do battery pulls occasionally (especially now that the power button long press doesnt reboot) and I usually depend on dual layer being fairly easy to remove. Right now the Aegis case I have feels like its bad to remove and replace frequently - which is good I guess in general just cus its snug, but bad of you need to remove the battery once or twice a day

Just got this case in last night and it is a great case no doubt, beautiful, not bulky, and offering decent protection, but holy cow is it tight and both hard to put on and remove. It's a concern for me, as I need to change the SIM when traveling.
I'm really afraid to damage the case, it is the tightest fit of any case for any device I have ever owned.

Case with kickstand?

Looking for a case with a kickstand for the Galaxy Note 2. Anyone know of such? So far the only one I've been able to turn up here is for the original Galaxy Note.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Verizon sells a case with kickstand for the Note 2.
Only downside is it does not cover the top or bottom of the phone.

It's a cheap case that will protect your phone, but the quality of inner silicone shell is not that great. It's too stretchy and will pull around the sides, and it gets worth with time especially at the bottom where micro-usb connector is. Also because silicone is soft, buttons will be too easy to press accidentally. But what the heck, for this price - its a workable Seidio Active knock-off with a kickstand that won't make your phone as wobbly in landscape as Active Plus, you can put your finger through the kickstand opening as sort of a flygrip handle.
The best case ever. No extra bulk and feels good to the touch, a hard case but with a soft touch feel, comes with a kickstand too. Bought one for the wife's too. I usually dont use cases but this one is a keeper . Go try it edit- Comes with a belt clip too

Definitely a good deal since you save $20 when you buy this BB PT case which is Seidio Surface rebranded case/holster ($55 for the original one from Seidio)

originally bought 2 cheap case/holsters one of which is the cheap 3 part listed in the OP. First one broke, second(OP) as noted the soft rubber part doesn't fit well and it's too tight in the holster. Finally broke down today ad bought this one from BB. There is no comparison in quality, Everything on this case is worth the money.
For my past phones I've bought the Verizon kickstand holster case combos and I've loved them, but VZW didn't make one for the note2 and the cheap online ripoffs are crap. Spend the money, your Note 2 will thank you.
Got this one for $6 shipped on amazon, cut the volume side out to work with my OEM flip cover.

More pics in the post a pic of your case thread, and mybat jolt thread. Kickstand hinge and latch is a tad flimsy but I haven't had any issues yet, and I dropped my phone 42' from the 3rd floor roof of a house, landed face down on gnarly concrete and not a scratch. Luckily the flip cover flipped closed or the uneven concrete probably would have been able to make contact with the glass, which would have been a disaster.
I like to break stuff!

I must agree with you. The belt holster has to be my most favorite part of it. High quality case. Very sturdy and makes me look like a fly kinda guy..
Here's a link to more pics of my modded hybrid PC/TPU kickstand case

You guys should check out a full review of Seidio CONVERT combo I just posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2177450
It essentially Seidio SURFACE/BB Platinum with an extra layer of protection on top of it. Turn your original SURFACE into a new rugged case. But as a side comment, Surface is PITA to take off the phone lol!!!

Thats a little too insane for me since I dont drop my phone lol. But definitely a must have for those who require protection along with comfort (by that i mean the belt holster).

Flex Thin Cases

What are the thinnest Flex cases? Post pictures if you can. The only issue I have with the Flex if you call it a issue is that I don't want to hide the curves. lol I want the thinnest case. Might just have to go with a full body protector.
thanks
get this one bro; super thin, great grip ridges on the side, and it fits like a glove..

You have it? I might get the clear or red one. I guess a mall has cell phone shop that will like shrink wrap a protector on any phone/tab. lol I might take a look at that today.
yeah, I have the red one..its super thin, just like you are looking for..
problem with those shrink wrapped type skins is that if you drop the phone on its edge, on concrete, they wont keep you from chipping the phone...

Post some pictures of the case on your phone if you can. I just wanted something that will make the phone not as slippery with limited bulk possible. I'm not going to say what I want to say for the fear of jinking myself. lol

I will later today, after I exchange this defective phone...but trust me, this is the slimmest, thinnest tpu type case you could imagine for this phone..
I ended up ordering that case and another one yesterday. I guess I didn't need to start another thread.
Sorry mods.
sorry I forgot to post pics; got busy restoring the phone all day yesterday..
Trust me, if you wanted a thin, unobtrusive cast, you bought the right one..what other case did you get?

This one. Only a few bucks so what the heck. A local mall has a invisible shield store and I wanted to have them install one but they said it might be a week til they get it. Might buy one online and have them put it on. I'm kind of picky and thinking they might not stay on with a curved phone as well though. I've had clear plastic cases that don't add much bulk but that's not happening with a curved phone. lol
Fosmon HYBO-SK Series Hybrid PC + TPU Kickstand Case for LG G Flex (Black)
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...N=B00HCNFVSO&linkCode=as2&tag=androheadl04-20
I had one of those on my one maxx; its OK, for a cheapo, but not as flexible as the other one you ordered..
for the price, its worth having around.
BTW, I had installed one of those skins on my flex; it was ok for a few days, then it started to come up around the round corners, so I don't know if one is good for a rounded phone like this. I am good at installing these things, but I couldn't get it perfect...
I'm still thinking about getting LG flip case. I know it's pricey but the discount helps and it provides good protection. Don't think you need a screen protctor with that case.

MPERO FLEX S Series Protective Case for LG G Flex
It's ok and doesn't add that much bulk. I don't think it fits like it should on my Flex because I have a Otter Box 360 on. I think I just want a pouch to put my Flex in when I go golfing.

Feather Shine
So I just put the Feather Shine on - it's a nice case, and looks pretty good. There's a strange thing, however: the corners on the front are shaped/recessed in such a way that when the phone is lying face down, the phone's top and bottom edges and corners are in contact with the table. I would prefer if the feather shine was what was touching the table.
I'm very curious about the Vest thing that LG has on their site. I can only find it (so far) from Korean vendors on eBay, with 3-4 week delivery times, so I haven't pulled the trigger. It seems to be minimalist protection, focusing protection exactly on the area I am concerned about: the front corners and top and bottom edges of the phone. Does anyone know someplace in the US that's selling these?
Thanks!
I have the quick window case. It's a nice design with nice patterns and such. The only thing I didn't like was that it really doesn't stand up to scratches much. It makes a nasty scuff Mark on the front of the door where it hits the back of the phone. I bought a vest from overseas last week for $20 on eBay. We'll see how that goes.

Not sure I understand the scuff mark. So the vest case overseas is the same as LG's but you save 40 bucks? Send me the link. Thanks
