That's one FAT case, but for those that want to be 100% safe, here you go! hehe. Tons of colors, too.

And for only 17 dollars @@

We have been talking about this knock-off case for 2 weeks already in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2174889
It's a fake Griffin case for Note 2, even so Griffin does NOT even make cases for Note 2. They took S3 design and scaled it up to Note 2. This is NOT waterproof case, but has one of the best protections, better than Defender. Check out my review in the link above. Plus, you can get it cheaper from www.tvc-mall.com

Insane color selection!!! Nice!!!

Really cheap! Are they reliable sellers?

Pretty sweet looking case, choice of colors are good also... the holster doesnt convince me much but for the price its worth a try.. although the camera being covered might present a problem for someone who uses the camera often.

Look into my review here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2174889 and also scroll down to the second post where you see a lot more pictures. Quality is superb, protection is better than Defender, built in screen protector is very functional (though have to remove inner plastic cover which I forgot to do lol!!!), the case will be very bulky with additional protection but it's meant for a heavy duty rugged use outdoors. You toss this em-effer from a 5 story building on a concrete floor and it will probably survive
Belt clip is bot as sturdy, but its a design of original Griffin Survivor. Keep in mind, Griffin does NOT make Survivor for Note 2. This is improvised knock off where S3 case was scaled up for Note 2 footprint. Camera flip is fine because it attaches on a string where you can turn it out of the way without a need to hold down the flap.

Think it's too much to hope I can buy 2 of these and mix colors? From the other fake survivor thread it seems like the quality control on these can be spotty. Do the microphone holes look much smaller on these than the ones from case parts or am i imagining things?
Also, I too am wondering about the validity of this site.

Of Aliexpress? I buy from them all the time. I have yet to have an issue with the sellers. Also, you should buy from popular sellers. Regardless, they don't get paid until you get the product in your house and release the funds. I wish I could say the same about CrapBay.

locally here in china.. 42RMB is around $6.75
View attachment 1836863

I ended up ordering one locally here in china on taobao. The case is really nice and I like it alot. The only downside is the rubber that protects the camera I could do without . It is a littke bit of a hassel when you want to take a picture. Other than that well worth thr $6 usd.

The only bad part that I dont like about this case is that the power cable if you use a non standard end it will not connect properly because the case.

Why would you want to use an escrow service for such a small amount?

That's how they do their sales. Wasn't another option available on the site or at least not one I could find.

Tetded Leather cases

While looking for a Verizon leather case I came across this brand. They seem relatively new to the case scene. If anyone knows of a company that is producing a leather shell/case for the Verizon version, please let me know. Thanks.

These look pretty effin' sweet! Gonna order mine tonight, as long as it isn't too costly. I am gonna try and figure the exchange with shipping and I will let you know. It looks like a really nice case so I am ok with paying a premium, but probably won't go over $60/$65.
Sent from my LG-D801 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Free shipping and you can click $ in the upper right to see the price in US dollars. Might get one myself!

Those look great. I'd want to know how protective it is before I bought one, though.

I sent an email about Verizon compatibility and they said it is suitable for the 980.
"Dear Sir / Madam
Good Day
The Tetded LG G2 cases are suitable for LG G2 V980.
LG G2
Best Regards,
TETDED CS Department"

Did anyone get it?

I got it and it is by far the nicest, high end case I have ever had on any android phone, period. The one (and only) thing I envy about the iPhone is the amount of accessories, especially high end cases, that are available for it. But finally, I have a high end, actual leather case that even my Apple friends are envious of! I will try and post pics, or maybe a video later today. By the way, I have the tmobile USA g2 and it fits perfectly, if anyone is wondering, so this should fit the at&t and Sprint versions as I think they are the same sizes, but I have heard the Verizon is a little thicker so I don't think it would fit?

I'm also interested in this case....can you upload some pics please? Has anyone else tried Tededs cases?

I'm really tempted to get one but I can't decide to get just the back case or the book case with a magnetic flap. It looks really nice but how much protection would it deliver if I accidentally drop it? I've had my LG G2 for about six months now and I've only dropped it once while naked when I stepped out of my car and I forgot I had it on my leg.

All the cases on that page actually fit the Verizon LG G2? They do look nicer than others cases I have seen, even if it isn't a lot of protection.
Edit: nevermind they replied to me just now that they are not compatible with the Verizon G2. The earlier reply posted by someone was wrong which is what I figured. Personally I think Verizon changed the phone just enough to force people to buy the case from them. I have never seen a phone with so few quality cases.

Anyone who have bought case from Tetded and have any feedback/pics how the quality is etc?

Love it but does anyone make a case like this that wraps around the front?

The "gadgeteer" in me says "Why yes, of course it's worth it." My wallet says otherwise. It does have a metal band, metal face, and fingerprint resistant face.

the matte black with leather strap looks pretty good, i wish they'd sell it with a choice of straps though, might take down the price a bit, the 250$ includes both a metal and a leather strap

Overpriced. The regular Pebble at $150 is too much. I got it with the Best Buy deal and at $100 it's worth it.
$250? The Galaxy Gear can be had between $200-$250 when it's on sale.
One major problem I see is the special strap (Yes Im aware the Gear has this same problem but you're getting superior hardware at a similar pricepoint albeit a shorter battery)....you can't use any 22mm strap like you do with the original Pebble. I use my Pebble while I'm working out to get notifications and change songs. I use a rubber or Nato strap for that and swap it to a leather strap afterwards.
I'm not going to workout with a watch on a steel bracelet. Sure I could opt for the leather but if you sweat on it consistently, it'll need to be replaced in a few months. Guessing it'll be 39 or 49 to swap it out.

Looks a lot nicer than the original plastic version. Still sticking with my Gear

It's a lot more fun playing with the Pebble than the others. I have the Sony SW2, bought the Gear, returned it after 30 days, bought the Pebble and the new Sony. I'm planning on returning the Sony, don't know yet. The Gear was so limited in terms of apps and plain simple "fun" toys. After all, these are all toys.

Most reviews I've read indicate that it has an one-week battery life like the current Pebble. In fact, not a whole is different, except for the metal material and firmware.

"Pebble Steel will run firmware 2.0. Pebble has promised to push this firmware update to existing Pebble users toward the end of January. The software update will be compatible with SDK 2.0 apps that will be available in the appstore."

It also has an led that I'm sure somebody will come up with a use for, double the flash memory and both metal and leather straps come with it. As for the non standard 22mm strap, when I went looking last weekend for a new strap for my plastic pebble, I was presented with many bands that would fit the design of the pebble steel.

Look up 22 mm notched straps on eBay and there's none.
Look up 22mm strap and you get tons of options.

Apparently RAM has been upped in new model (how much, I don't know). Addition of LED indicator too. Otherwise, same functions as original one.
I will stick to my original black pebble with black metallic bracelet. IMO, looks amazing still

Hi, not sure if links are permitted so will just give you the details. I purchased it from Amazon UK from the marketplace seller Ritche Horologe Co. Ltd. The product details are: Ritche 22mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch Band Strap Straight End Solid Links Color Black (£12.99). Took about a week to arrive but we'll worth wait. Good quality for price and easy to adjust length with removable pins.
Returning to thread topic...who's bright idea was it to stamp a massive pebble logo on the front of the new pebble steel? Not sure how popular that will be...IMO, this logo dominates the screen. Should be much more discrete/subtle.

[Q] wich watch band?

I will buy one, as soon as the watch is available in europe
I wanted to allready buy a watch band for it, since it takes a while to order stuff from china
and I prefer a metal band over a leather one...
and watch bands are really cheap in china
what kind of watch band would fit?
this one :

I will be up for buying someone's OEM leather band if someone is willing to sell it in the U.S. Just P.M. me and let me know!!!

I ordered a custom strap from Patrik at Clover Straps for my Moto360. He's just started it. Then on Friday I ordered a G Watch R and asked Patrik to not cut the little notches in the strap that the 360 needs and I'm gonna use it on the GWR instead

Am I right in assuming that any 22mm watch strap will work with the G Watch R?
I'm interested in getting a stainless steel strap but I might wait until I have the watch before I choose the strap as I want to ensure the colours match.

I think what your asking is if you need the rounded or straight pin, correct? You need the straight one.

I guess the strap will just have to wrap around the cradle. It should sit ok.

Genius.

Currently waiting for the my watch to arrive.
I was thinking about buying the following from eBay (18-22mm Hadley Roma Stainless Black MB5178A)
- seems like a pretty good deal for me. I just need to be sure, that this is compatible before I buy it.

I bought one at Walmart that has white stitching on it for 14 bucks. The one with the watch irritated my wrist and its all red now.

Where is this band?
Can someone point me out a band similar to the one in the attached picture? I want to buy something similar to this.

http://www.amazon.fr/Montre-Bracele...=8-1-fkmr3&keywords=bracelet+montre+alu+22+mm
I choose this one.
is someby already change his brand?

I'm waiting for my LG G Watch R to arrive and have been looking at watchbands on Amazon. Quite a lot of nice designs available here
E.g.
Black metal link watchband

Just took a punt on this
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/18-20-22-.../221591933172?ssPageName=ADME:L:eek:C:GB:3160

Lug Adapter Zenwatch 3
I looked at the pictures of the lug_adapter and to me personally
it looks ugly and not professional at all.
What's really needed is to find someone who can make lugs identical to the
original lugs attach to the watch just like the original ones but 20mm in size
so we can attach any 20mm bands to the watch without making the watch
look un-professional.
This lug adapter on Reddit looks similar to what I seen on Amazon.com
for the Samsung S2 Classic watch which had the extra link attached to
the original lug which also looked bad. (if you all know what I mean).
Have a great day!

This is available on Amazon now, but the reviews aren't stellar. Apparently, it's actually plastic not metal (why are they called Steel Connect?), and the color/texture doesn't match the watch metal at all (not even the black). I'm really disappointed because this looked like a really good (even though overpriced) solution, but I ended up buying the watch anyway after several companies came out with metal mesh bands that are specifically designed for the ZW3.

It's aluminium. Lightweight.
Though the corner edge is of the connector is sharp.

As I said in my previous post here, the steel connect is an ugly piece of junk
which makes the Zenwatch 3 look like something home-made by someone
who does not know what they are doing.
It might be OK if you broke your stock band and there were no other choices
of bands, even then I would not pay more than 99 cents for it since that's all
it's worth. At Amazon Com there are many other very nice choices of bands
specifically for the Zenwatch 3 which look great and look very professional.
They also cost half as much as the cheap, ugly steelconnect adaptors.
Your screenshots prove my point very well, the steelconnect adaptor
makes the Zenwatch 3 look ugly and unprofessional. LOL
Have a great day!

It's new year eve. Chill. I just post to share my experience.
Really like the aluminium used.
Though not sure your problem with "plastic". Definitely it is not made of plastic like what the Samsung Galaxy series is using.
Some other views with the aluminium finish. Take note sweat will erode the aluminium gently. So do wipe it with damp cloth regularly.

Though not sure your problem with "plastic". Definitely it is not made of plastic like what the Samsung Galaxy series is using.
Some other views with the aluminium finish. Take note sweat will erode the aluminium gently. So do wipe it with damp cloth regularly.

Sorry about that, I forgot it's almost New Years eve!
Enjoy your Zenwatch 3 with the steelconnect band adaptors.
Have a great day!

The photos of the connectors in the Amazon reviews really look plastic, and the reviews actually state they are. Do you know if the manufacturer created multiple versions? Maybe the original ones (prototypes) were plastic?
All that being said, your connectors don't look plastic and actually look pretty good (even if I don't really care for your choice of bands -- that's the Steel Connect band, right?). Glad you like them. I would probably buy a set myself if I could confirm the ones I would receive are definitely not plastic. I'm not paying $40 for plastic.
Happy new year!

Here's mine with a nato strap that came with the connector. I have had it for about 3 months I think.
Colour matching isn't perfect, but it does the job well.
Worth it or not? I guess it depends on whether if you really want to freely change watch straps.
