Xtreemguard is good but it is shiny and fingerprints magnet.
Thanks in advance.

Skinomi has a set that comes with one. Pretty good. Back is a real pain for install because of the long radius on the back.... I ended up having to gently use my heat gun...
I bought an exoskin that came in yesterday. Haven't had a chance to put it on yet but I go the 3M Di-Noc back that looks like carbon fiber. Matte and has some texture for more grippiness.
I got the Poetic Pallette, it's not a skin but it is skinny, about 1.5mm thick. Matte black with rubberized texture,feels really good. J just barely wraps around the front edges and open at the top and bottom.very light.

Me too. The Poetic Pallette is great. Has a great soft touch feel and protects the rear without adding bulk.
I just ordered a carbon skin from Bodygaurdz. Had 1 on my old optimus g.

I put the Zagg full body screen and back protector on my Tmob G2.
It gives a better grip than the polymer back, no fingerprints and has a nice matte finish.
You can see the shiny part near the flash and lens where the Att mic hole would be.
The details of the back with the lines are still there with no shine.
Can't believe anyone hasn't recommended the Diztronic TPU case. It's great. I feel like it would protect from drops very well. Alot better than that of the Poetic Palette anyways.

I have the Exoskins black carbon fiber back and its pretty sweet. Much better than the naked back but it is still a bit slippery but it has some texture for more grippy-ness when you're actually holding the phone.
I did a review with pictures of the black carbon fiber exoskin in this accessories section if anyone is curious. I also have the dizitronic case, but I like the look and feel/texture of the exoskin so much that I'm rocking my g2 with no case. The corners will never line up completely perfectly, but that doesn't bother me personally and other people will not be able to tell unless they are looking for it.

I'm not short on money right now so I can spend a lot, but I obviously don't want to if I don't have to. What's the best case for this phone for protection from falls?
I enjoy the outterbox commuter case, it's not overly bulky like the defender but still providers good protection from falls.

I prefer the spigen slim armor case, with the metal slate color. Looks really good and provides good protection as well. I recommend the metal slate color because it isn't glossy, so no fingerprints.

Yeah, my dad has the soul black one, and that is the one thing he doesn't like, but, as you said, overall the case still looks pretty good and protects the phone.
Incipio Brig.
I have it in black and translucent blue. Best case I've ever used for any phone.

I have the LG G2 Dual Pro in white and grey and I love it. It provides plenty of protection but doesn't feel overly bulky and it has a nice lip on it to keep the screen off the table when I put it down. It has a soft rubbery feel to it so it doesn't feel slippery. 2 pieces one hard and one soft for shock absorption. I am very picky about my cases but this one is perfect and I have tried a few.
Hi,
Just ordered a Ringke LG G2 SLIM Case, looks good ....
I'm currently using the diztronic tpu matte case. Haven't dropped it yet but I had one on my previous galaxy nexus and it was great on it. Almost no bulk added. I've dropped it countless times and my phone was always good. It's also pretty cheap. Good luck!
Sent from my LG-D801 using Tapatalk
Definitly get one. I once droped my while getting out of the car before i got my SPIGEN case. Thank god i only dent 2 corners without damaging phone or display.
G2 is definitly not very good phone for dropping. Before this i had HTC One x and i dropped it on monthly basis for year and half without any major visible damage. I dropped LG G2 once and i already have visible damage.
Now my SPIGEN case for g2 even covers those dents so i dont see it
Still that phone is sexy without the cover more. But believe my you will eventually drop it so its worht getting the case and using it constantly. So better get one.
I've got a otterbox computer. And I've had it fall twice in a span of 15 mins from a little over 4 ft on to a old brick pad and it was just fine. (I was trying to set it up to take a family picture and it fell off its perch...twice)

Does your case tend to get dirty ? I mean, since it's white... Cuz I realy like this one and thinking of buying it !
Thanks !
Any comments on TUDIA vs. Diztronic from owners of both TPU cases?
Even better if you can also compare them vs. the Incipio Brig.
Thanks
What would be the best armor/protective case for the G2 with a small size?
Not as big as an Otterbox Defender, nothing bulky...
But not as thing as a thin TPU case...
Looking at the SPIGEN Slim Armor right now, seems appealing but also kind of thin.
I love my slimArmor, It is a bit thin on the face side but that's where I have the iLoome Flex glass protector on. Hopefully in a drop the iLoome cracks and my screen stays in one piece.
If you want less than the defender then try the otterbox commuter. I have it for mine and I don't regret it at all, very reasonable thickness with a nice lip on the front for a case this protective, plus none of the button problems that seem to plague the defender series

It's a very thin case, with almost zero rim. Thinner than the Slim Armor, if the photos of the latter are correct. Like 1mm of rim, which is barely that tall. The only cases with less rim that I've seen are the official QuickWindow case and maybe the Feather.

I bought it for my wife's Verizon G2, the pink one. It is a very good case, a good mix of protection and being slim. The plastic back has a matte finish a has a slight grip to it.So nice in fact, I just bought the white one for my newly purchased G2. :good:
My Verizon LG G2 came with a white/grey Incipio DualPro case. My initial feeling toward it is that the silicone is too flexible and pulls too easily away from the top and bottom front faces of the phone. While putting the outer shell on the phone, it felt like the case just wouldn't be stiff enough, but now that it's on the shell isn't so bad. The case has decent grip, but the white color of the outer shell picks up color from your pocket (or whatever else it rubs up against for a bit). I really like how the rear buttons are covered up, yet actually easier to use because of the more pronounced power button bulge.
On my previous phone (a Verizon Samsung Galaxy SIII) I regularly used a pebble blue TPU case from Belkin, but also had a blue Otterbox Commuter for when I'd go camping and hiking. I quite liked the Commuter and will compare the Incipio DualPro against it.
I've been using a Diztronic matte black TPU case for the last week (my first full week with the device). Now I've switched over to the Incipio to check it out. I'll give it as long as I can stand it and will post back here.
Anyone checkout or have experience with the trident cyclops case for the g2? I used it on my moto x, for the protection it offered, really didn't have much bulk, was thinner then the commuter. Found a good deal on a g2 cyclops thinking on checking it out.

Just ordered a poetic invictus. For under $10.00, it seemed like a high quality case.

24 Hour update: I've spent 24 hours with the Incipio DualPro case on my Verizon LG G2. It is definitely growing on me. While the slightly rubberized hard shell feels slightly slippery to the touch, it is grippy on most surfaces when set down. The case seems to offer protection on par with an Otterbox while feeling better. There's very little added bulk with this case, considering what it's offering in terms of protection.
The case looks good from the back, but I'm not too keen on the white shell peeking around the front edges of the phone (or with how it picks up colors from rubbing on its surroundings). The grey inner shell looks good enough that it's not distracting. Had I purchased the case separately, I would definitely have gone with the black case. But I don't feel strongly enough to buy the black version as a replacement for the white/grey case I already have.
I'm happy with this case and would recommend it.

Received my black Invictus today and it's going back. I'm not impressed. The biggest thing is the cutout at the top left corner the pics on Amazon don't show it but it's there and annoying. The plastic is glossy and looks to scratch easily. The kickstand is just a flap cut out of the back of the case and doesn't snap into place very well. I was expecting a somewhat more premium case. Obviously not high end but better than this.

Today I tried switching back to my Diztronic case because I'm tired of the white/Grey color scheme of the Incipio case. I couldn't do it. I've grown used to the way the Incipio case covers the rear buttons and actually makes them easier to use.
But it turns out that I really do feel strongly enough about the color to have ordered a black version of the Incipio. It should get here in a couple of days. Hopefully it feels the same as this white one.

I really like my incipio dualpro. it's really thin but it's survived a couple drops already. my only complaint is the back is kind of slippery and I could see it slipping out of my hand (hasn't happened yet)
Having used the Slimarmor and the Diztronic TPU, I just recently moved over to the Tech 21 D3O case from Tmobile and I'm loving it.
With the slimarmor I felt it being a bit bulky as well as pretty slick at times. With the diztronic, I didnt feel as if there was enough protection if I were to ever drop the phone.
Looking at the videos of drop tests online for the d3o material, I was sold. The fit is snug, the only bulk added is on the edges where the d3o material is. The textured tpu is nice to hold and doesn't feel slippery, plus I feel much more confident in the event if it were to ever drop on the corners/edges of the phone. For the front face drops, hopefully the Glass M protector I have will take the impact.
Very satisfied with the Tech 21 case and would recommend to anyone looking for slim and protective. They have them in the Tmobile stores so you can definitely try it out first before you buy!
I have the Seidio Surface case and holster. I really like the holster but the case doesn't seem like it gives much protection. Anyone familiar with a case that will give more protection but still fit the holster.? I've tried a couple from Ebay that look slim but protective in the pictures but tend to be pretty bulky in hand. A kickstand would be nice but that's not a deal breaker.
Ballistic SG Shell Gel Protective Case
I used to have a Razr i before my LG G2.
The Razr i was tough by its own and still I had a "trident aegis" case for it, I could throw it meters and was always nice.
G2 seems way more fragile, but the trident series for the G2 are really creepy awful. So with a little research I came across this nice piece of plastic protection the "Ballistic SG Shell Gel Protective Case", checked some youtube videos of drop tests and reviews.
I bought it on ebay today, so now I'm waiting to arrive.
Hopefully its as nice as it looks.
Hi.
I'm looking for ultra thin case for LG G2. Can any reg. any good?
Also interested in this, I'm checking out the ones on ebay from China that reviewers have said is very thin (<1mm). But was hoping to find the thinnest possible case without having to resort to a skin.
The ultra thin ones from china are only good for scratch protection, but don't help at all (as I found to my cost) if the phone is dropped. I also found they're not very grippy, making it more likely that you will drop it.
Depending on your carrier, but the Vzw model Incipio DualPro is minimum bulk, buttons on the back are covered, and provides a good grip. The non Vzw one doesn't cover the buttons, unsure about the thickness comparison.
Not sure what super thin is, but I use the Tudia Melody and am a fan of it.
I've used the Incipio Feather. That is the thinnest case you can buy. It is also super awesome matte rubber like touch feel and high quality plastic. I just purchased a new one after original 2013 case was sort of a dingy blue.
http://www.amazon.com/Incipio-Feather-Case-Verizon-Packaging/dp/B00F4AYBPG
I just picked up the teal/light blue one the other day for $5 shipped. It is a little pricier now but normally run $24ish.
For as thin and skimpy as they are, my G2 looks flawless for having been dropped many times on concrete and hardwood. My case corners had a few scratches but the phone itself is protected. The case provides a small lip to protect the screen and grabs the corners to catch drops.
It is the only case I will buy.
Yesoo slim from amazon. Its the thinnest and has a great matte finish liket he nexus 5. Better than the super slick G2 back.

I've got two of these cases and have ordered two more: http://www.ebay.com/itm/HOT-Ultra-T...Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item20f131738a
Second two haven't arrived yet and I ordered two weeks ago but a long delivery time from China is to be expected. For ~69p delivered you can't go wrong!
Very thin, almost don't feel it other than it being a more pleasant matte texture. Not very hard wearing, mines got scratches on after about a month, but I intended for it to be sacrificial anyway as they are so cheap.
http://www.amazon.com/MPERO-SNAPZ-R...=1423222408&sr=1-4&keywords=mpero+lg+g2+snapz
This case is wonderfull. I ordered it, but can't use it because i use tempered glass protectors that case would work only with a smaller one glass or with plastic screen protectors. But it has the nexus feel and is extra slim. Try it guys, very cheap and very good quality
I personally do not like TPU cases. They are too thick and add a huge lip around the screen which makes it hard to get to the edge (especially on the LG G2's screen).
And all TPU cases feel the same to me. The Incipio Feather is a hard shell and snaps to the back. It is pretty difficult to remove, even after owning my last one for a year and a half.
I have one of these an its very unobtrusive, and more grippy than the bare phone - it clips on very securely and protects the corners which is all I want.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00FRFT3PG?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00
BUT I suspect if you drop the phone the case won't last long - I've not dropped mine (fingers crossed a drop now isn't on the cards!) but my wife has one for her Moto G and it broke a piece off the corner when dropped on the corner - the phone was fine, but the case was junk, but at £2 for another it's not the end of the world and certainly stopped the phone getting damaged.

That probably won't work with the Verizon VS980 because our device is a little thicker then the other models due to Qi Charging. It is also basically the same thing as the Incipio Feather I posted, except the Incipio is specifically designed for the Verizon models thickness and different button size.
I've dropped my phone tons of times and the Incipio holds up nicely.

I've had 2 of these, and they are great. Very thin, and stylish... and grippy. I had to replace one because I dropped it right on the corner on concrete from about 4 feet up, and the corner of the case broke off, but the phone was only slightly damaged. Great case!

I have to agree, while no OtterBox, the Incipio feather has protected my phone well. Bought one off eBay for $10 and see the ones sold on Amazon have dropped in price as well.

I have 2 of them. By far the best rubber/plastic case with minimal foot print you can by. Have used them always on all my phones.
Agreed, have 3 of these in different colours, using as my daily driver. (once in a while I'll switch to my Urban Armour Gear but keep switching back)

I was undecided about these cases as I have a leather back, and 2 plastic ones with dbrand skins on them and did not think the case would fit.
I see you installing this with no problem in a leather back so I am going to purchase one.
I have been using Cruzerlite TPU cases for years (g3,g4,note2). The one for the G4 fits perfectly. Barely adds to phone profile but protection is good. I have dropped mine a few times on hardwood floor with no issue. I think the case gives that bit of cushion the corners need to keep you out of trouble. I also have the iCarez tempered glass screen protector. I have the leather back, looks cool but I think grip is better with the Cruzerlite case.
This is actually really nice. Surprised I haven't heard more about them.
