I normally buy an OEM case for my phones but so far I am not over taken by the offerings on the Google store.
So do you normally get a case for your phone? If so which one?
Or do you not bother with a case and just go "vanilla"?
Let me know your thoughts and if you can lets see some pictures of your case if you have one.
I usually just get the google case. Don't go "vanilla". If you drop it you'll probably have to pay more than triple of what the case just cost from the beginning.

Is there any chance you guys can post the weight of your cases? This is the one I ordered. I'll post its weight when it arrives. Thanks

Spigen Liquid Air now and probably will buy a Matte Black dbrand Grip later. I bought a black leather skin with my Pixel 6 Grip case, but the skin it's so thin and isn't very durable. The Grip case itself is great.
I went with the Caseology Athlex. I am a bit hard on phones, so I will probably get a UAG case as well if/when they come out with some more selection than the Scout. They always have my favorite cases as they offer good protection with a slim profile.
Edit: I cancelled my order and ordered the UAG Scout...

I don't like the notch for the camera, but it has the oleo-phobic coating.
I have been really happy with the "Poetic" cases from Amazon. They started copying the Supcase Unicorn Beetle's and now design their own. Excellent protection. I also had an issue with one and they sent me 2 for free with no hassle.

How much thickness does the case and screen add on?
Quite a bit. That model is not petite.
Are there any cases with inbuilt stands besides Spigen and the cheap aliexpress options?
I'm unfamiliar with the 'Poetic Revolution' cases - are they as durable as Spigen?
I'm getting a Gadgetsdhieldz screen guard and Spigen Thin Fit Case! Hope this will be a good fit...
Caseology Parallax looks and feels great on this device, if anyone is curious about one. I've always been a Spigen user, but the grip and colorway on this case have won me over.
Ordered the Spigen rugged case and glass protector off Amazon.
I got a Spigen Thin Fit Case in black for now.
The case may well change in the coming weeks.

I have the Sprint version of the LG G2.
Currently I am using a cheap generic case which I bought to just have one on the release date.
Now I want to get a better case like the Poetic Palette or the Diztronic.
Both cases seem great, but I haven't found any reviews comparing the cases.
Poetic Palette VS. Diztronic Matte TPU
Looking for:
Lip over the screen.
Little bulk as possible.
Non-slippery material.
Playing nicely with a screen protector.
Proper cutouts for all ports.
Some protection.
Staying attached to the phone.
etc!
Does anyone have any opinions on which case is superior to the other? and why?
Thank you.
i know this wasn't in your battle, but the Incipio Brig is an AWESOME TPU case. i can't say that enough. Of course, if you want something flat black, it's not right for you (it has a checkerboard pattern, which i actually think looks GREAT). But it is a high quality, STURDY TPU case.
But in response to your original battle, i prefer cases that cover the entire phone (like the brig and diztronic). The pallette is open on the top and bottom. not saying that's bad protection (it could be... not sure), it's just personal preference.
The Poetic doesn't provide any top, bottom or glass protection. The Diztronic(or any case with bezel lips) doesn't play too nicely with a full cut screen protector on this phone since the glass is bezelless. I've got a Diztronic and a Zagg HD screen protector that is cut to be "case-friendly", I couldn't be happier with my Diztronic.
What I have noticed is that all the cases for this phone don't play super nice with headphone cords, really cheap or bigger cords generally don't work that great. Other than that which is far more of an issue with the profile of the device, the Diztronic is flawless.

Wow, I have not seen any of the Incipio cases yet.
The Brig looks interesting, but the DualPro looks like another option.
I should have put a price range in the OP, the 2 I was looking at are about $10-$11.

Thank you both for pointing out the lack of protection on the top and bottom, I didn't notice that.
The poetic case doesn't seem to offer anything other than a $10 piece of plastic that makes the phone thicker.
I might just go for the DualPro one for $7 or $8 more but still pick up a Diztronic for a backup.
Thank you both for saving me from making the mistake of purchasing the poetic.
I voted for Poetic.
Just received the new Poetic (VZW), so now I have both to compare.
I just need something to cover up the slippery back (fingerprint magnet & accident-prone) and provide some
protection against scratches. Both are nice for $9. The poetic doesn't have protection on top & bottom, but
I think that makes it looks better ---> I voted for it.
I'm waiting for the Spigen Amour VZW to come out.
My own naked (10-day old) G2 glided off the table (damn slippery back) and dropped 3 feet onto the tile floor (face up)... lucky me, not a single scratch. I feel a little better now with the case on.

Have been using a Poetic for a month, couldn't be happier. Great finish, clean lines, tight fit. I'm careful with my phones so the top/bottom protection wasn't as big a concern as the feel of the phone, the fingerprints on back, and being able to set down on back without worrying about lens. The Poetic answered all those needs.
I voted for the Diztronic even though I prefer the look of the Poetic more because it offers more protection.

Great to hear that it's a good case, just ordered it myself.
However, I am concerned about cutting the protector. I guess I will go with normal size first, since it comes with 3 protectors, I will give it a try first. How far did you have to cut the protector? Do you have any pictures? I ordered the Pure Crystal Obliq protector.

Did you also check out D3O cases? T-Mobile now is the exclusive seller I believe, I don't know if you have AT&T or VZ, but I assume T-Mo cases should be compatible with AT&T except you may want to check to make sure there is 3rd mic hole on the back for AT&T.
There are two of them:

I am sure you are familiar with D3O? It's a gel that hardens upon impact.
The only thing bothered me was that visible orange strip. Why couldn't they make it all black...
Sent in my phone because the charging port stopped working, and I'd like to buy a new case for my m8.
I am looking for something that looks decent and adds protection, with support for a tempered glass screen protectors.
I had a spigen case before this for a few months and the back is already scratched and looks very unappealing now.
Does anybody have recommendations?
I've always been a fan of UAG cases aka urban armor gear http://www.urbanarmorgear.com/.
Every so often they have specials going on as well.
I've been very happy with my Trident Aegis case. $20 on Amazon and offers excellent protection. I've dropped my phone several times and the case has held up well. I've had it nearly a year now with no issues.

This, I love my UAG case.
I have a ringke slim case black matte one from amazon... Been using it for a few months and works amazing! Catches mad oil though but one wipe and its clean
Otterbox symmetry
Check out the Amazon reviews.
I bought and reviewed 3 cases here in my post. I've since then ditched the dilex as it seems a bit bulky and have switched over to a black supcase unicorn beetle with a red body since i was replacing the usb/3.5mm board on my phone. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2728080 I hope that might be some help to you.
spigen hybrid. transparent, great materials, very strong
Yup, i think UAG has one of the nicest looking tough case out there.
So I ordered one of those knox armor cases for $14 off Amazon. They're similar looking to the Otterbox and offer similar protection. Only thing is they don't have a built in protector but that's not a big deal because I have tempered glass on mine.
Only think I really don't like is just like the Otterbox Defender, the rubber near the home key tends to work a little loose after riding around in my pocket.
The rubber around it seems a bit more dense so hopefully it last longer than the Defenders. After just a couple months my Defenders always become looser due to the rubber wearing.
It's not the best case but for $14 bucks I'll take it over a Defender though. It provides more protection than the Supcase too. Only other durable case I can think of that is more durable than this is my Poetic Revolution which I love but it's huge and doesn't work with wireless charging like this one does

The Ulak case is thick and feels more like a Defender. If Ulak case wears like the Otterbox I'll probably rip the temperd glass off and go back to Supcase or the P

To each his own but I'll go to bat for the unicorn beetle. I v dropped it plenty of times and not even the tempered glass has broken yet..... knock on wood. The buttons work great and it has a belt clip. Can't beat that in my book

I like the built in one on the supcase. It isn't like Otterbox. It fits flush so dirt doesn't get under it. However the Supcase is stiff and too thin for my liking for drop protection. The Ulak seems good. Even if it only last 6 months it was only 14 bucks. My otterBox after 3 months was wearing a lot so I bought other cases. Waste of 50 bucks. My next Note phone I'll order some Amazon cases a few days before I buy the phone so I'm not suckered into buying otterboxes.
I have and use the supcase daily. I love the fit and finish you can definitely tell it's a well made piece. I did also grab one of the Knox armor cases too for around 3 dollars with a coupon code from amazon. Side by side it's easy to tell the supcase built much better. As far as drop protection goes between the two I have no idea, but I have dropped my note a couple times so far. I have yet to actually put the ulak case on, never found a reason to take the supcase off

The Supcase the phone feels kind of thin to grip. Maybe it's because I'm so used to using Otterbox Defender and Poetic Revolution cases. I always thought the Note 5 was a bit thin to grip.
Another good case to check out is the Artech 21. I like the Supcase but it just seems a bit too thin especially with all the glass on this phone. That is why I went with the Ulak. So far after a week it's still holding up well compared to the Defender I have.
Which of these is the better one to get
Otterbox Symmetry Case for V60
UAG Scout for V60
Currently have the UAG Plasma for the V30
Combined with the InvisibleShield Glass Elite Screen Protector with VisionGuard, how well does it work with a capacitive stylus?
And with color ("Classy Blue" or "Classy White") is better with a case?
Uag and blue is better

It's out of stock on Amazon but is available on eBay or UAG website for the same price. I'm not a fan of grimy clear cases get so I prefer the UAG. I also think it provides better protection from the looks of it
I normally love UAG my favorite brand but the scout looks like ass :-( so boring.
I have a Nimbus9 Phantom 2. Priced in the $35 range, but I think that it makes the phone stand out..
Otterbox Symmetry is absolutely useless. It actually increases your chances of breaking your phone. It's literally so slippery that if placed on your desk it will just slide right off with even a 2 degree slope, i.e don't put it on a book or magazine. Especially so if it's plugged into the pc, the charging cable will just drag it right to the floor. I had to cover the back of mine with skateboard grip tape off amazon, (comes in a roll) just to make it useable. I don't' know how they can go from the defender to the symmetry, it's also like an F.U for not buying the defender, but they don't' even make a defender for this one.
I just got the dual screen , but it really kills your battery so for out of the house use I think I'm going back to a case .

Casemate clear fron Verizon
I have had experience with the clear Casemate case from verizon for a few days now. Its probably the worst case ive ever had. Terrible design, uses adhesive to adhere the front screen piece and easily come off with any pressure against it. Rear case holds just fine but is incredibly thick and changes the device into a boxy phone. Needless to say save your money and get a different case
Cool, thanks! Let us know how you like any of the ones you order.
I was thinking a possible case idea would be a rear TPU case that adheres with adhesive, but then has an extended flexible rubber that overlaps the screen edges. Then you could fold back the rubber when you want to swivel. Just a brainstorm, not sure how it would work in a practical use.
Just pulled the trigger on a case and protector from a Korean website (GMarket)
