I bought this case for my LG D802 Asian, and fits perfect, the size is like my Galaxy S2 + Otterbox, less bulky than an Otter.
I like the black mate and the phone doesn´t slip so easy like when it doesn´t have the case
The case box
Thanks you for the pics!
Do you have screen protector on it?

There is no need of screen protector in this phone, it has Gorilla glass 2.
can you make picture with phone next to it, front and side on flat service?

The second picture is with the phone near the cover, to have an idea, the G2 with this cover is near the same width of my Galaxy S2 with Otter Box and the depth is exactly the same as my S2 with Otter, the lenght is larger because the phone is larger

Thanks for the pictures. Looks like the cut is quite wide but a llittle bulky...
Because I still looking for a case which can use along with meenova.
Did you happen using meenova?

I saw meenova, personally I think it will fit ok, its only 1 mm of rubber
Okay thanks for the input citytrader. So if I decided to buy incipio then on their site which carriers should I choose?
I'm using D802 Asian too

I bought it at ebay at this dealer:
http://www.ebay.com/usr/cellcase4u
My experience was great, my cover arrived to Mexico in 6 days, very fast.
Personally I think that any cover that fits G2 T-Mobile, AT&T or Sprint will fit D802.
The customer support of INCIPIO is horrible, I dont understand why because the case is nice, not bulky like Otterbox, I think is enough to protect the phone.
Try to check at ebay or ask directly to INCIPIO where to buy the DUALPRO T- MOBILE variant, the models I saw are colored, personally I prefer black, but is matter of taste!
Okay... thanks.. will contact the seller then

Yikes, seems like the rubber portion attracts lots of dust/lint (top/bottom) of your pics. Maybe I should get the Spigen instead to avoid that.

It attacts not lot of dust, in the picture seems worse than really it is, if you pass your hand you will clean it easy.
Personally I dont like the Spigen because its bigger and the hole in the flash is so small that could affect the beam and personally I like more the black mate back of Incipio.

Good point about the flash. I read about it earlier somewhere on this forum, but I didn't think much of it. If the flash isn't properly dispersed, it may very well affect picture quality.
I'm planning on getting the white dual pro to match my white G2 that I'll be ordering soon. Hopefully the grey rubber bottom doesn't show dust/lint as much. I'm mainly concerned not with it being there, but that it might constantly be getting on my hands and may make the case slightly difficult to hold (I had a TPU silicon case for an iPod Touch one time and it was terrible with lint).
Do you think there's enough room on the sides of the case to have a tempered glass screen protector there without experiencing any lifting?

Most of the case is plastic and from my point of view this case is optimal because it does not slip from my hands.
About tempered glass, totally useless in phones with Gorilla Glass and total waste of money, for one side, this type of screen (Gorilla glass) never get an scratch with normal use, for the other this kind of screen degrades the clarity of the G2's wonderfull screen.
I have a Galaxy S2 for two year and still I see one scratch, of course maybe you will found something if you look at the microscope hehehe.... but from the normal eye sight, there is nothing and this is what matter most.

Yea, most likely one doesn't need a screen protector, but even with gorilla glass, I would feel more comfortable with one on there. Never know when I may drop the phone by accident and any additional protection helps. I don't particularly like to see any scratches on my screens, so I know it would bother me if there was on there.
Also, I'd probably get a higher resale value for keeping it in better condition!
Anyone seen this yet?

I am very happy to see Glass protectors finally for our Edge but disappointed that they are colored now instead of fully clear.....Wouldnt that make the capacitive buttons look recessed or sunken in now? I just don't like the idea, kind of like adding depth to the buttons...
Skinomi Tech Glass
thanks for the post I was on that page just a couple of days ago and that option wasn't there yet. Seems interesting as most full edge covered tempered glass screen protectors are black and that one seems to actually be blue like the phone is. Also about the clear/coloured the reason is the adhesive used would show at the top and bottom so I personally don't mind it being coloured as long as it matches the original colour. It seems it's the only way to achieve full coverage and not lose
the glow from the capacitive buttons by adding the cut out as it is 0.33mm glass. I think it'll still make the phone look amazing and definitely want to give it the best yet still slim protection and this seems like it'll be for now so I decided to order it even though it won't ship until around July 17th.
would it fully cover the phone screen?
I have one. I dont mind it but it doesnt cover the full front of phone. Doesnt interfere with viewing really but the only thing i don't like is the cut for the top spots is off slightly
looks like a gen 2 protector
i don't have any experience with this particularly product but let me tell you this is not a GLASS protector but a FILM protector like INVISIBLE SHIELD or BODYGUARDZ, so take that in mind before buying

How is the touch sensitivity? Especially around the edges?
Good! Thanks!
I got mine yeterday and sensitivity sucks on the left side. I'm off by tiny bit hen installing it and that could be the reason but who knows. I did post a picture in the Skinomi review thread in here if you want to take a look. Not sure if I have gen 2 or 3 but it does look great. Too bad for my left side sensitivity issue. Slightly getting better so there is some hope. Guess I'll give it a few more days.
EDIT: after re-aligning the glass, I don't have sensitivity issues on the left hand side anymore.

Skinomi Tech Glass screen protector for the Samsung Galaxy S6 is perfect. It does not cause any touch nor tactile sensitivity at all though I knew some did experienced touch sensitivity especially on the sides. what works is aligning the shield to the center.. really it works great as those expensive brands.. worth a try!
oh great

That's for the normal screen protector, not the glass.
Decided I shouldn't go without a screen protector, looks like the tempered glass ones won't work well because the screen in curved on the edges. Anyone have experience with or can recommend a good one? I often see suggestions on here that I couldn't find on my own and I'm thinking one of you guys can help.
By the way i went with this case:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M15T2I3/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&th=1
I like it except that the camera and volume buttons aren't cut outs. It fits the phone well.
I appreciate any suggestions.
Same boat as you. The ones offered Amazon all seem to complain about them being too thin, bezel to bezel.
The only one that I have found for the phone that fits properly so far is listed below. It's not glass but works great.

Nillkin has crappy cases for F5321 that offer little more than scratch protection, and you're incessant advertising for them across the all the device boards is obvious, so you can hardly be considered objective. Please go troll your mother and go away. There are people here looking for serious solutions.

I decided to go with the Skinomi as well, put it on my XC yesterday. Very happy with the results, it's been a while since I have used a non-tempered glass screen protector and for some reason I was expecting the touch screen to be hard to use and the experience generally unpleasant. This wasn't the case and it fits perfectly. recommended.

I saw those but have seen to many negative things about G Color protectors to ever try one out myself. Lots of videos on youtube about them being crap.
I got these ones from ebay and they're a perfect fit. Quite easy to apply and cover right to the edge of the curved screen.
Worthwhile watching the video before starting. It's been on a few weeks now and no finger marks and the feel is good

I ordered one of those g color protectors yesterday. I'll be that guy that tests it. Should get it sunday. If its moot I'll try that skinomi one. I kinda want the skinomi one just for the rear protector.
edit: Ok got it in yesterday. Packaging was nice and it came with the normal included things. Putting it on was kind of a pain in the ass. This was mostly contributed to the curved screen but it is doable with some patience. I messed up putting it on the first time and lifted it up gently and repositioned it. The adhesive was just as sticky as the first time so there is room for error. I have a cheap jelly case off amazon on it currently until my devil case comes in from overseas but it does not have any conflict with the screen protector as long as you get it on next to perfect.
Clarity is good except for one small small detail and another really annoying detail. The small detail is you can see a line around the boarder between the glass and the "carbon fiber". While annoying I can understand that it's 2 different materials and I don't see how you couldn't have that problem. The really annoying one is it cuts off some pixels on both sides of the screen. It isn't really noticeable until i use reddit sync which then when viewing the comments it becomes apparent. It kinda irritates me but for the moment I'd rather have a couple of blocked off pixels then the screen exposed.
I give it a 6/10 mostly because of the cut off pixels. If it wasn't for that my initial rating would be more of a 8 or a 9/10. I will comment later on down the road if I experience the adhesive pulling up.

Lol, I am positive I saw your review on Amazon when I left mine (we also have the same case). Anyhow, although I disagree with the installation, I agree with everything else. Installation for me was slightly confusing, but really easy once I understood what to do. Air bubbles were a pain to get out, but that's to be expected. As for the quality, it's perfectly fine except for your two points. Mostly your second point: the pixel cutoff. While definitely bearable and not very noticeable most of the time, in certain apps it really is irritatingly noticeable. I would have to recommend against getting this screen protector and waiting until a better one comes out. I'm keeping it on until I find a really good case and/or a better glass screen protector.
Has anyone tried the Nillkin "Amazing H tempered glass screen protector"? Would really like to know if it's any good because I enjoy their frosted case.
Looks like Devilcase now offers a curved glass screen protector: http://www.twdevilcase.com/en/index.php?menu=prod_detail&mid=21&did=7&pid=5280&list=class
BTW, their case for this phone is really thick. Not as stylish as their early, asymmetrical cases :/

This is not great, but is the best I've found so far. It's not got perfect adhesion on the edges, but I've tried the super soft screen protector, flat glass and curved glass with glue only on the edges so dirt gets under it. I'd love to find a curved glass one that has glue all over it instead of just a tiny but around the edges.
I'm also looking for a curved screen protector that "glues" properly (direct contact) to the entire screen, not just the edges.
It doesn't have to be tempered glass either, simple cheap TPU would work fine.
The ebay one mentioned above doesn't ship outside of UK, so it's no good for me.

I have a problem with that screen protector, it turns proximity sensor always on, so you can't access the phone in call.
When I removed the devilcase curved glass screen protector, the proximity sensor starts to work again.
Seems that roxfit screen protector has similar issue.

I do have it installed.
Not a bad screen protector, applying it was not hard. It wraps around the back, but I get straight line bubbles on the edge, which is not awful. Works with the cases, but sometimes cases push the bubbles in and you'd have to keep pushing them out. Overall, 5/10.
Screen sensitivity is okay, seems a little dry and there is a friction with the spen.
I'm using the same. It'll do for now. I may try the Armorsuit one next as it worked well on my N7. I rate it as a 6/10. Same issues as stated above.
This screen protector is waste of money. It's easy to apply but there will be a lot of bubbles and is sticky as well.

I hate this protector more than ever. It's so rubbery that my nail drags along every time I swipe or scroll. It's worse than the wet applications I've used in the past.
this is a pos product. Yes it does go on clear and wraps around but the plastic they used is so sticky that you cannot scroll and drag your fingers much less an spen. This must be the worse product ever!!!

Does this one have any holes or cutouts for the sensors? I can't see in the photos.
EDIT: NVM, I looked it up on Amazon, I don't like those cutouts. I'm gonna order it along with the protector for the Galaxy Tab 3 and use the Rinke one as a template to cut out of the other one. I've had a Tab 3 7.0 from IQ Shield conver on my Note 7 for a year and like it. Took a couple of tries to get the holes just right. Trying to get a good tempered glass solution is a headache, this option will keep me from going crazy till someone gets it right!

Yep, it was sticky but it smoothed out. I used alcohol on it and it helped clean the sticky surface. For me, it's great with the s pen. The annyoung thing so far is sometimes bubbles get pushed when I put the case and force it. Otherwise, no problem.
Here are some tips,
I did he steamy bathroom thing when applying. Make sure you have a clean surface.
I held a flash light between under my chin so I can see dust.
Have more alcohol pads on you just in case.
Air pressure can to remove dust or stickers, but the air can is better.
Check out the video ringke.com/go/guide
For those of you having problems... did you let the screen protector stay without a case for a few days as per the instructions? If not, that's why you're getting bubbles and lifting on the edges.
Hey guys a little update. I ended up removing the screen protector and I installed the Spigen wet install.
The reasons I removed it are:
It kept getting sticky. After I cleaned it with a alcohol cloth, it gets sticky within a few hours or a day sometimes.
After a clean installation, and being out of the case for a while, any case you put in, no matter what will get the edges pushed, which leads to some air gaps, then it creates bubbles.
Pushing our bubbles with such a sticky screen will damage and stretch the screen. I will upload a picture later of what had happened.
Overall, do not recommend for long term, for short term, it is alright.
I am trying he Spigen wet one, and it seems smoother, but the clarity is not as good as the Rinkge one, but still more than enough for me. Most cases for the note 8 really suck and will push most screen protectors up unless it is a case friendly screen protector.
Happy hunting.
This is my best screen protector for curve screens e.g S7,S8.
You need to have a very clean screen no dust and you be fine. Case friendly.

True I have iq shield isntalled and it was great on my s8. Also the skinomi one is fantabulous.
The case attracts a lot of dust whenever I put it in my pocket. I used it for a little bit before the dust problem got really annoying and i bought another tpu case on amazon. Any fixes for the dust problem? I really love the feel of the case and the cutouts are better than the TPU so I want to use it.
Me too facing the same problem, but I have lost that cover. Any idea where to find the official one? It is not available on the website.
hey guys is it true that case is responsible for some negative effect on the matte finish?the matte finish is coming off after using it for around 2-3 weeks?
I've just got the phone this week and I've ordered a ringke onyx case for the phone. I think its best to stay away from the offical case that comes with the phone just to be on the safe side as some users here experienced paint chipping after using the case provided inside the box.
I got the 5t the day it came out and used that stock Silicon case for about 2 months without any sign of paint chipping. It did collect dust like a vacuum. I got 4-5 cases on AliExpress for under $5 each and they too have dust problems. the one I use has a clear plastic back, so I can see it all of the time.
Did drop my phone today and scratched the stock film cover. Pulled it back and it didn't damage the screen, but now I get to research the best film screen, since the last time I researched it, there was no good tempered glass one that didn't have issues

In the tempered glass topic, the topace brand was recommended. But the gadgetshieldz looks good too.

I primarily use this case, and without getting a ruler out, there is about 1/16" on the top of bottom and about 1/32" on the sides with the stock film. (or as much as the coverage past the screen of the stock film)
Ironically, the first link for topace on amazon is a film, not a glass and the glass product has 1 poor review.

If you mean the official OnePlus case, no, i have not experienced any chipping of the phone after using the official case. Currently used for a month already.

The way they did the curved screen on both OP5 Models made nearly all glass screen protectors on the market not very good at fitting. Even the official ones from Oneplus themselves were whack. I tried loads. Best of a bad bunch were the orzly ones, but even those weren't perfect. The phone itself just makes it impossible.

Yes, from what I had read, the orzly and NILLKIN were the best glass, but the edges were the issue.
I used to have some various cheap glass protectors on my S4 and never had the issues people are noting on the various glass protectors for the 5t - reduced touch sensitivity, rainbow effect, hot spots, etc
Honestly, though I have gotten descent at installing screen protectors, I despise putting them on and getting everything perfect, so I am trying to do as much research before hand, so hopefully I only have to do it once.
I got the OnePlus glass when I got the phone, but read the initial reviews and had planned just to keep the stock film on, as it seemed to be doing a good job until I dropped in in the backyard and damaged the film about 1" down and 1" in from the right.
Sorry if I have hijacked this topic...

Yes, there's definitely no ideal way to do it. This is why I personally prefer the flat screened phones, as they have none of these issues.
Pity in a way that curved screen phones have become a fad this past year. Last decent looking one that I was tempted to get was the Razer Phone for gaming. (That one's completely flat screen, and generally looked like quite a decent smartphone for alot of other reasons too). It's been out for a while though now, and haven't got round to it yet, but I still might. In the meantime, I'll just struggle on with my OnePlus until it dies (or more likely, 'til my screen breaks!) haha
sorry to hear about you dropping yours though,. that must've been harsh. was it just the film that got damaged, or did any of the actual device's screen underneath get hit?

Yea, about 4ft drop when pushing my kids in the swing to the dirt and debris that settled under the leaves (that I had just moved so they could use the swing for the first time this year.
I was trying to take pictures of them and dropped it
I dug my finger under the corner and peeled back the screen protector past the damage and the screen was clear. It's almost like a rock dug up the surface of the film

Phew! That was close! (it's always a bit unsettling when you see the cracks in a screen protector). With protectors also being transparent, at first it often looks like it's gone right through to the actual screen, until the moment of truth when you remove it afterwards.. (I've had a few scares like that in my time! So I feel ya!) But is a satisfying feeling of relief when you pull the protector off and everything looks good as new underneath.
Anyways, glad you got lucky that time aswell! So far so good!
after 2 months my phone is completely ruined by this case. I should have changed the case earlier.
