Just FYI for those of us who got lucky and got an opportunity to test this case and provide a review, check your email. I received my code this morning and it's only valid for about 24 hours. I paid for 1 day shipping and will get it tomorrow. I will update this thread with my review once I'm done with my testing.

Sweet looking forward to your review.
If anyone from ZL is reading this thread, might want to correct your case description on the website:
"We at Zerolemon knows how to make battery right for you. With 3500mAh battery installed, you will get 130% additional power for your Galaxy S6 Edge. With the small battery and big LCD screen in Galaxy S6, you will be glad you are carrying this battery case around!"
Samsung phones have AMOLED screens, not LCD.
I got my email and paid for 1 day shipping as well! We'll see how good they are. I got black, you?
I am excited about the case as well. I just accepted the free shipping so it will be to me on Saturday. Very nice of them to offer up free cases for us to review.

i got black as well.. i didn't see options for different colors? I would have chosen black either way cuz my phone is black..
Yea, only black option for me as well. Cant wait to test it out!
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Yeah black was the only option. I was confusing myself with the ones they offer through their website. My edge is white but it should look good. I'm interested to test out NFC with it too.
Is the offer still available for testers? Link if possible?

Initial pictures. One thing I noticed off the bat was it doesn't sit flush on the edges where the volume buttons are and the sound seems to be extremely muffled.
Sent from my SM-G925V using XDA Free mobile app
Dam that just ruins the whole look of the s6/edge. Lol so ugly.
What I noticed about this case also is the bottom edge sits really close to the home button. If you put your thumb flat it dosent even touch the home button. You literally have to go at it at an angle. Feels very plasticy and makes the edge look so ugly

Correct. Initial impression is not very good. Feels cheap, charges very slow, doesn't fit right, muffles sound. And I had to remove my front and side skins to get this thing on thinking I might use it for awhile...

This kind of case with extended battery might be a hot thing few years ago, but now with all these new technology like power bank, wireless charging, new fast charging from Qualcomm in both wall and car charger. makes these old thing obsolete.
Pair this with S6 Edge, that's even a bigger sin by itself.

I agree but i also think its time for phone makers to start thinking more of new battery technology and less processor and new designs. However. .. my opinion is they will do away with big bulky phones, go with the new flexible screen and cloud service. Same with laptops and desktops.
i forgot to hit one day shipping when i got my code and mine comes Thursday.
i have purchased other items from them in the past and been very happy and not reading reviews here at all yet so i dont go in looking for stuff and its a clean slate in my head

You maybe right, but it's worth a try. If anything I can imagine the whole back of the case needing to be cut out to fit this monster.

lol... I might order one just to check it out and run it through the paces on my test gear. I'm not real fond of the TPU type back cover, but it might be alright, and it would have some shock absorption value.
I read the Note 2 won't support NFC. I would be willing to pay extra money to have a case that supports NFC.

Agreed.
I am sending them this little note, in case they are willing to consider adding NFC in their battery as an option:
Greetings,
Xda developer Note II forums have mentioned that you are currently developing a Galaxy Note II super capacity battery.
I understand that due to the extreme size of the lithium ion battery, the NFC contacts are no longer exposed, thus NFC cannot be implemented in the battery back cover, as the Samsung and other third parties are currently doing.
I am currently using the Mugen extended battery, that does use NFC in the back cover, and use NFC for google wallet daily.
Although this is none of my business per se, and your product will be very successful, the lack of NFC will deter some users (including the writer of this brief note) from purchasing.
May I offer the suggestion of implementing the NFC back on the battery itself?
Since your battery will effectively sit on top of the NFC contacts, you could wrap around the battery the NFC contacts and implement the NFC on the battery’s back.
This after all is the way NFC is handled on the Samsung GSIII and Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
I understand that this would increase your production costs, so perhaps you could offer two models of the battery, tacking on the extra cost to the customers that would be willing to pay for this. I for one would be more than happy to, and I am sure that you will see the sentiment reflected in the online communities by others too.
I had one of their batteries for my s3. It was amazing. 3 days easy without charging and 10+ hours screen on. This one not having nfc sucks though.

Theoretically, if they don't do it themselves, we could add the nfc as a DIY.
Ebay sells the nfc adhesive strip, which you could attach to the back of the battery, and use contact copper strips to make the connection with the phone work again. I might actually experiment with that once they ship.

That was my plan also. I just got a cheapo flip cover I'm willing to hack for this mod. But now I just gotta wait 17 days.
5mins later...
The suspense is killing me!
My buddy has the one for the GS3 and while it is bigger the fit and finish can't be beat. It almost looks like they took three batteries and wired them together.
I'm willing to bet that this is going to be a great buy. If i didn't have the Anker and get great battery life already I'd be snapping this up!

yeah they've been in stock. they just update their website poorly, and they don't respond to any messages or emails you send. trust me, i know because i've done this. i ordered a white one (all you have to do is just order despite it not being in stock) and then they start working on it. mine came pretty quickly.
now the problem. upon opening, the white had smudges - indicating that it was not brand new. second, it doesn't fit that nicely, which shows that it is made of cheap TPU. i really had high expectations for it. the other two downsides are the screen and the power button. the screen is way too reflective making it impossible to see in lighted conditions when using navigation etc even with brightness on 100%. the other issue is the poor cut out- the power button is way too far from touching the actual power button so you literally have to push super hard with your nail for it to hit - this makes the casemate tough's power button super easy to touch in comparison. the volume keys however are easy to touch.
i hope you have better luck with yours. i was very disappointed in my case despite the nice youtube review online from oli. oh well - i have other nice cases

I like the concept of not covering the back, but I agree it should fold. It´s seems prety rigid, making it even somewhat uncorfortable to hold the tablet. I will wait for some reviews and photos around here.

Same here, its a crap design for $30. I'm going to stick with the poetic case. Id prefer something that just covered the front (im not clumsy) because the tablet is so thin and light and then folds into a stand but this isnt it.

It is not as tight or secure on my phone as I thought it would be. Dropped from a couple feet and the phone popped out of it. I have one of the older gray ones. Anyone else have the same or different experience?
The flap would not close all the way because I already had a tempered glass on the screen. It is extremely hard to use with one hand. I tried really hard to like it because I personally think it looks nice, but had to return it for those two reasons.
I just bought mine today. I thought it was broke at first because nothing happened when I put the phone into the case. I turned off my lock, checked to make sure the app was installed. Then I remembered I have a tempered screen protector on. When I took it off, the case works just fine. I think I'm going to take it back because it provides absolutely no protection at all. It only works with HTC apps: no gmail, fb, hangouts, 3rd party sms apps...nothing other than HTC's apps. It looks good and it's a neat trick but for $50 I saw all I needed to see here.
I do really like the principle of the Dot View Case, however its the effort of one handed operation that is hampering the thing... Its not as if i have small hands either - at 6'3" i have absolute shovel hands and still struggle.
Unsure...

I really like the case and the idea of it, but it is slightly off for me. When it is closed, the case is a few mm to the left, so the dots aren't as sharp and more of a blur. If I push the flap to the right a little they line up perfectly. I don't have a screen protector. Does anyone else have this issue? Possibly a defect?
I don't mind holding the flap to use the phone as the phone is big enough that I pretty much need two hands to use it anyways. I will continue to use the case, but I may end up returning it before my 14 days are up if I don't fall in love with it. Right now the only thing really bother me is what I mentioned above with it being slightly off.
I have no interest on Dot case. And also don't have any one.

Given the quality of the doubledip cases for M7, I wasn't expecting much in quality. I hope 3rd parties are allowed to do their own dot view. I've only seen S view type cases for the M8 right now.

Flip the cover around the back and one hand use is just fine- it may not wrap around the back perfectly due to the curve, but does not stick out enough to hinder one hand typing, browsing etc, unless you have smurf size hands....

Purchased the Dot View case from VZW originally, wasn't very happy with the Warm Gray color. Purchased the Warm Black Dot View case from the Shop Android part of the site and received it today, its the exact same color that VZW is advertising as warm gray, I was expecting a black case as depicted in the photos, the part numbers on the packaging are different, the VZW packaging has an HTC SKU 99H11530-00 and the Shop Android packaging has an HTC SKU 99H11416-00. I will edit this post with a photo in a little while but has anyone else found a similiar situation or has anyone received the shop android Warm Black case that can comment and/or share a photo to compare the Warm Black color? Thanks! VZW Warm Gray on the left and Shop Android Warm Black on the right...
Anyone interested in buying a case? I bought it earlier thinking I'd like it, but it just isn't for me. Instead of returning it to sprint, I'd rather sell it to someone who's had a hard time looking for one. PM me for details.

Too bad the output current is just 800 mAh, when the phone can handle 2A.

you guys do realize most of these battery/ battery case come from china right? just like MUGEN battery. For all you know they are probably from the same factory, make the battery and then just slap on the sticker and you're paying extra for it.
I like this case/battery combo. However, from the pictures it looks like the case offers absolutely no protection for the screen. It would be nice if there was at least a raised lip to keep the screen safe.
Seems like it would be extremely inconvenient to have to remove the case and charge the phone and case separately.
I've never had one of these 'charge' cases before.. Is that the normal operation?

When I had my G2 with a Zerolemon battery case it would charge the phone before the case. The only thing I didn't like a out it was a 1 amp into the case and phone, then when you click the button to charge the phone it was a 1 amp output to the phone. So you really can't use the phone and charge at the same time. like you can when you use a wall charger, other than that it was ok and the bulk didn't bother me at all. I have 3 friends that have Mophie cases ( HTC One m7, galaxy s4 and a iPhone 5) they like the cases, I just hope they make one for the M8 I'd love to buy one.

Just got the case today so far it seems really nice. It does add some bulk and to some might seem as a brick. Coming from Nexus 5 zero lemon this is "thin" for me.
The case looks nice and despite it's plastic feels more premium than I expected. Maybe it has more to do with the weight than the material.
Protection wise I am a little nervous. The edges appear to be protected but the edges are exposed leading me to believe that it's more prone to damage such as cracks and dings. I expect the aluminum on the edges to be dinged up using this case.
Charging wise this thing is nice. It came with with 3 charging lights indicating it was roughly .75% charged. It died after 2 hours however left me with an almost completely charged phone. Mind you I was charging with GPS and screen on. On the zerolemon battery would drain(not charge if I were use GPS and screen on even if battery was charged. The insctructions state that you can charge both phone and battery. The phone would charge phone first and then battery. On the zerolemon it charges both at a a god awful snails pace.
One huge benefit of this case is how easy it is to install, just slides right in. So if your like me and clumsy you can put on the case as needed and use you other case as needed.
Packaging was also nice, It looked similar to how the m8 came in a box except instead of cardboard came in plastic. Will upload pictures and give a more detailed review after I had it for a few days.
All in all after owning it for a few hours I can say I recommend this case

Just got the case today so far it seems really nice. It does add some bulk and to some might seem as a brick. Coming from Nexus 5 zero lemon this is "thin" for me.
The case looks nice and despite it's plastic feels more premium than I expected. Maybe it has more to do with the weight than the material.
Protection wise I am a little nervous. The edges appear to be protected but the edges are exposed leading me to believe that it's more prone to damage such as cracks and dings. I expect the aluminum on the edges to be dinged up using this case.

Noticed it here for $20: http://www.amazon.com/Aufine-3200ma...8&qid=1403191603&sr=8-69&keywords=htc+m8+case

Looks identical.
I had ordered one as well and had issues with it not holding a charge and only charging about 20% with what it did have. Contacted seller for a replacement, which they never requested the original back(wierd), and the replacement had the exact same problem. Returning them and waiting for an official case to come out.
So far have had nothing but positive experience. I am wondering if these are the same product I bought from mobile fun. If have issues I will report. So far is my only complaint is lack of protection. It charges surprisingly fast when charging it says it's charging AC in the battery stats. Fits like a glove and easy to take out and put back in

The review for the last one is not the same as the one I ordered for instance it doesn't have lightning night nor do I think they carry a white case. The other 2 look identical
