Nobody has their phones yet, so we cant say

I will fill you all in when it all arrives;P

Stupid me! Of course, I forgot about the UK release date. I'm thinking about getting one of these cases when I get back to England.
That would be great if you could let me know.
Did you receive these accessories yet? I'm curious to find out about how the pouch is working out. I finally found a vendor who will ship to the US for Tech21 products and I was able to order the iPhone 4 iSlip case. I'm pretty sure it's identical to the one being sold for the Nexus S but I wanted to confirm with a part number or something similar.
I really want that tech 21 d30 pouch.
weird but i actually feel like ordering one of these
kinda handy to have a case + desk stand all in one

[TMO/Sprint]TUDIA Ultra Slim TPU case

I just got this off of amazon for $7 shipped. I must say the fit and looks are awesome for the price. I think the biggest thing I like about it is that finding the buttons on the back are MUCH easier with the case.I highly recommend it.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00F27CY4Q/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Can you post actual pics of it? Had this case in my cart for a while.
LG G2
Sure I will do it when I get to work. I'm considered a "case whore" by friends since I always buy a lot of em, lets just say I haven't even looked for another case cause I like this one so much

grip, protection...
what's the grip and protection like for your tudia case???
Can you try something for me?
Can you see if 1 Credit Card and 1 Drivers License fit inside the back of the case and still fit on the phone? Its a way to carry those things on the phone case.
I need a case that does this like I was doing with my current phone.
Thanks!

Its not slick if thats what your asking. I havent had one scare or fumble with it yet. The protection seems great for a TPU case. I have no doubts when putting it down on its screen with the cases bezels being the size they are.

I was able to get the case on with my DL and a CC in there. It doesnt fit very well, it creates a gap at the bottom and where the case meets the buttons on the back. Putting just 1 card in the case, you cant even tell its there. Keep in mind I have a AZ DL which is very thick compared to say a CA DL.

I totally agree
It's a decent case. I'm not a big fan of tpu style cases but this one is nice. I think it's a bargain at $7.
LG G2
If someone could ship this cheaper, we Europeans would appreciate since it looks great
But yeah, 20$ shipping (like, what the hell) basically cans the deal.
How does this case compare to diztronic tpu?
Sent from my LG-D801 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I've used a diztronic back in the gs3 days and they seem close. Diztronic is a shady company though so I'd never support them again.
If wondering what I mean, search xda in gs3 forums for Diztronic.
LG G2
I'm also not a fan of the "lip" on the front and back of the diztronic case for this phone. Seems like it would trap lint like crazy.

M8 Double Dip case

I just received mine today and i must say I am really liking it! It comes with 2 colors(Blue and Orange) so you can change colors from time to time. Has anyone else got this case yet?
not I..I have the Dot View case....and another one I got off Amazon (black borders with a clear back). I had the Double Dip Flip for my M7 and really loved it, but the regular Double Dip never really grew on me

I've heard that the phone doesn't fit that well in the case as well as tops/bottoms can fall off. Is that true?
It was a little loose but not that bad at all, so what I did, was I bought 3 of those FULL 90% off full body Xtreme Guardz(Posted in this section) and put them on(Front and back) and the case is actually nice and snug now! Actually It is hard to take it off,lol. But not really hard but with the protectors on the case fits extremely well!!

Oh, I was thinking of going for a Nilkin screen protector that's why. Will the case still fit since I'm getting a screen protector only?
Oh yaaa it will def fit.
Here's a few pics.
Bump
The case looks great, have your tried putting on the case without the full body protector? I want to buy either this or the Otterbox Commuter.
Oh ya!! I had it on without the protector the first few days and it was fine, the only reason I put the full protector on was because I got 3 of them for $2.75, lol!! That's 3 FULL PROTECTORS for under $3!!! Crazy.

this was exactly I did, really hard to take off. I found the case too slippery so for now I purchased a dot view case; and find it okay
I have one (unopened) that I received for free with my phone. I'd be willing to trade it for the international tpu.
Oh man, I got this case at Verizon last week and returned it. I didn't think the fit was good at all. Maybe it was just the end caps being a little loose, but the phone itself felt loose in the case. I can just imagine those caps flying off the first time you drop it. It's too bad, I was really excited to get this case.
looks great
This looks better protect more and its cheaper also lol!

I love this case but hate that the end caps are plastic and not coated with a rubber texture that the M7 version had. That really helped with grip.
Would it be possible to spray the end caps with flexible vinyl paint?

Aluminum bumper from eBay/Amazon

I know I've read that a few people have purchased it... my question is for those who have actually received it.
First of all, I believe I read someone had said it DID fit a leather back phone... Can that be confirmed? Also, do you notice any degradation of WiFi or cell signal with the bumper on?
this
Well, all aluminum cases effects the signals and wifi too ... i had use aluminum case on my galaxy s5 ago . Im recommend to not use any aluminum case
Mine shipped today so i guess i will find out in a couple weeks. For $9 it's worth the chance.

This is a bumper, not a case. There is a bit of a difference.

Got my black bumper in today. I like it so far. Fits well. Doesn't seem like it will leave a mark inn the leather but time will tell.
I got mine a few days ago. I'm not happy about 2 things:
First, putting this on ripped my heart to shreds. It doesn't open nearly enough to fit the phone without seriously risking a scratch.
Then, the bottom part is not fitted properly. There's a space between the back of the phone and the bumper, and I can see through port holes. The phone doesn't jiggle or anything, but the frame is too far from the bottom back of the phone.
I'm using the plastic back BTW, and trust me, you don't want to use this on a leather back. There's no padding at all on this and it will leave marks. @tourbound129 I think someone already tried it and it only took a couple of hours.
I agree that it doesn't hinge apart as much as I would like but I had no problems carefully making it work.
I'm not to worried about it leaving marks in the leather. It won't really show in the black even if it does. And the backs are replaceable.

I'll try to get some later. GF has my G3 so don't have anything to take a pic with.
It did leave a small impression on the leather after leaving it on overnight. I have the textured black leather so not worried about it at all. Not even visible unless you are looking for it.
Has anyone dropped their phone yet, while wearing the aluminum bumper? How did it protect the phone?

Well if you coat a bumper case in cocaine and leave it there for a few days to absorb it it should go MENTAL by the end of the week. Very dangerous method but it surely drives the bumper case MENTAL. Haha on a serious note, I have no idea, felt this was a worthy joke and deserved to be posted!

Looks the same. I've had a couple for a couple weeks now. I posted about it in the bumper thread. I quit like it. One other person complained the lip on the front of the phone is very tiny though. It's just enough so that if you face the phone face down the screen won't hit, which is all i care about. I just want the back and front to have protection from when I set it down. Not so much for dropping.
The one I posted is two parts that come together so the front has a huge lip

Based off the pictures it looks identical to me. Never the less i look forward to your thoughts on it.
I got it for 4.99 from another seller. Using it on leather back. Fits nicely but it does not protrude out in the front. Hence doubt it will protect the screen much from falls
