Has anybody tried these out yet? Just saw them on eBay today.
OtterBox Knock Offs
Their feedback is pretty good, but they haven't been selling these particular cases for very long. So, I'm guessing nobody that bought one has reviewed it yet.
Whatcha think?
Been thinking about one of these as a backup. @ 20 bucks might just go for it.
I like the Defender so much because of the camera protection. This knock-off leaves the camera area exposed, offering them no protection...Guess it all depends on your wants/needs, but this case also just has a cheap look to me..specifically the button/hole covers

You can get a defender case for only 12 dollars more on amazon.
Just received mine today. I think I paid 36 all together with shipping.
As long as it not otterbox, then yes.
Otterbox wants you to setup a crime scene before you can return a defective unit.
They don't have any integrity about standing by their product.

Quite the opposite actually. 95% of people who call in don't have to do anything to get replacement, myself included. I called them, explained the issue, he asked for my email address and mailing address then told me i would receive it in about a week, didn't have to do ANY thing. Plus get to keep the old one for a backup, nice!! Bet customer service anywhere!!

I pretty much guarantee you will get better customer support from otterbox than you will this knock off company.
I got an otterbox defender for my OG evo as soon as they became available. 3x I had to have it replaced (for minor issues) and 3x they sent me replacements with little to no trouble. I had to take a picture of the damage the first time.
Btw the replacements were for 1 the kickstand snapped in half and the other 2 were related to the holster cracking. (I was very hard on the holster, always bumping it into walls/doors lol)

I went ahead and got one full price 49.99 right after i bought my Evo. Could have waited---- but whatever.
I think this would be a good cheap alternative mainly due to the exposed buttons. The defender works as advertised but i might want a lower profile, easier access, less tapedeck looking case.
Ive had one problem with the defender. watch were you sit. The belt clip has a weak point and it will break if you hit it in the right spot.
Edit: On second thought- there is no way to make the Evo 3d not look like a a Walkman
I woul probably like the knokoff more if all buttons/ ports were exposed.
MMMM, Nom Nom Nom
I ordered the Defender. Got a discount from Retailmenot.com and really like it. Ditched the crappy built in screen protector and grabbed a zagg also got the discount for that at retailmenot.com.
I am suppose to be getting my otterbox in the mail tomorrow from fedex. I love the camera protection it offers. And the best thing is I got it for free, haha through best buy accommodations.

Hello everyone Just wanted to let Y'all know that RadioShack is selling the Zagg Invisible Shield for $9.99!! I just bought one and thought that I would share the info with everybody.
Good find. How did the screen feel after the protective screen was on?
awesome! doesn't get much better than the zagg shield. I like how it covers the whole front of the phone too
I hope it doesn't peel.... My experience with zagg is that it peels after some time.
I have a zagg on mine and a kraken case Great combo and works fine
yea, its a good cover, ... i bust out the plastic one with my otterbox and ballistic case.. not as hard to clean... i do not recommend the zagg with matte finish though, it made my old evo4g look pixilatied
i work at radioshack and i have gone through 2 zaggs both of which peeled off rather easily. i also did care for the feeling... it made scrolling feel laggier almost... and with my OCD the smallest air bubble or speck under it drove me nuts.
thats just my 2 cents. i know alot of people and my co-workers love em.

Nice man . I have snagged them up on eBay for 10 or less in the past I have a extra zagg just in case I ever need it ... Tricky part is you have to make sure you have clean hands dust free area. Then spray your hands down with the solution . Take the paper off the back of the zagg and spray it down good and line her up on the glass . Use the thing they give you to get rid of the extra fluid and air bubbles. Should clear up fine in a day.
Take battery out just to be safe while applying
Was @ the mall and ran in to a kiosk that sold Zagg. I didn't know that they were going for 9.99 though. I feel like I was ripped off but on the up side though they cleaned and installed it for me. So far no bumps or weird distortion. The feel of it will take some time to get used to though as it is a bit more griper. Anywayz, so far so good. Just glad that they offered a lifetime warranty so if this does go goofy, all I have to do is go back down and get money back or they re do it. Oh, instead of 9.99 it did run me about 25.00 dollars w/ tax (front @ back)
Has anyone had long standing good luck with these?
Thanks,

Nice I have had zaggs on my phones in the past always hold up well even a year or 2 and still looks good as new...
I was kind of wondering, I know that other people had it on their phone for 10 dollars, but was wondering what is the normal going rate for this?

Well if you are lucky you can find them for 10 bucks if on sale ebay is cheaper with free ship... If you go to best buy they want 20 bucks plus tax and they won't put it on....
20 bucks in the mall or other areas that those folks sell for zagg they will install it for you which is nice...
I got one on ebay for 5 bucks free ship another for 10

The Zagg's actually are not as hard to install as you would think. There are quite a few videos on the net to show you how to do it. I admit though, the first one I ever did was a little jacked up. But now that I have done a bunch of them, I can actually put one on in the car no problems. Just make sure to clean the screen and wet your fingers and the protector
I bought it for 10 bucks from the mall. I convinced a female worker to cut the price down for me. Zagg FTW.

Love my zagg, it feels almost impossible to scratch. I got the soft otter box case for it though, and didnt like it. Fit too loosely on the phone:/

at my local best buy has them...i bought mine yesterday....its really nice....i like it...
Not a single one in my town. I did spend a lot of time showing my phone off because I'm the only one in town who has it. Anyone care to comment on the fitment of it?; this anti-glare Moshi wont even stay in place but it was free.
*edit* Found one. Nice fitment.
Put it on yesterday within about 2 hours of buying mine. (Took that long to track one down at Best Buy). Wend on easy and feels smoother than a regular Zagg. I'm quite happy with it! :good:
At best buy the front only is 25 bucks on Zaggs site the complete body one is 25 bucks. Just fair warning to all of you!
Though you can get best buy top price match the front for 15

Actually, the one on Zaggs site is not the HD. Zagg doesnt even list the HD version as of yet. The HD are always more than the original because of higher quality. Actually, im sure that might be objective, but to me it is. They just seem more clear, and they feel of them seems closer to the actual screen than most screen protectors. I actually Zagg today because i wanted to register mine for warranty purposes and its not an option on their site. The rep even verified for me that their site does not list this version, and that it will probably be another week before it does.
Now, having said all that, has anyone else experienced any issues with theirs scratching? I have the Zagg HD on my One X, Galaxy S3, and on the OG. Ive had them on my other phones since they day the phone was purchased and they still look wonderful. The one on my OG was placed on it the day i got it, the 3rd, and i actually peeled it off today because it is so scratched up it looks terrible. Im just wondering if maybe there is a manufacturing flaw in them or something.

I went to best buy today and they had a bundle special. I got the Zagg screen & the Rocketfish case for $35.
The reason for the price difference is because the one at bestbuy is the HD screen, which will better compliment that beautiful display.
BTW, Zagg is having 50% off sale for CyberMonday, still going today.

Ghost Armor makes clear protectors for both the front and the back that are just awesome.
12 bucks for maximum coverage (back, front, and sides) on Zagg using InvisibleShield with lifetime warranty is basically a "because why not?" deal. I recall paying 20 bucks some years ago just to have the front of my Inspire covered.

No it did not. I bought it without having my phone yet and when I tried to put it together it was absolutely to small.

Is the zagg LG optimus g for the at&t version without a doubt? They have sprint version listed and then just lg optimus g...thanks
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
I was trying to determine if the LGOG kit they have listed on the website will fit the E970 so i tried calling Zagg several times on Monday but they never picked up the phone. I sent them an email late in the afternoon and have not yet heard back from them.
kinda frustrating that they had the 50% off sale but not reply to my inquiry. If I hear back from them I'll update this thread.
edit: was informed that the LG OG (the one NOT listed as Sprint specific) would fit the AT&T device. So i ordered a full body kit.

I have used extreme guard on all my devices for years, I even had it on my Note 3, I have 2,, me and my wife... but 3 months ago, my cousin found someone on ebay, lucky he was close to our neighborhood, and delivered the protectors...
It is even better, its the tempered glass... cost 10 bucks each.. feels so smooth and so real... this is my 3 phone, my 2nd replacement from my original Note 3, and this is the same tempered glass... I must have took it off over 20 times, because and eyelash fell in, some little dust, and I removed it and took off the little specs and it still looks great.. except on the lower right corner has a little air pocket, but remove it about 20 times.. I don't care about it anymore.. this is the guy, I couldn't find the Note 3, but we have bought 3 Note 3... 2 S4, and 1 for HTC One M7, and 1 or the Note 2... also 2 iPhone 5s..
My cousin actually dropped his getting out of his SUV.. all that happened was the screen shattered,,, well not the screen the temper screen, that is what is supposed to happen, the temper glass is supposed to protect the original glass, he didn't have a case...
I sold my Note 2 to my other cousin in March, she still has it on.. no problems.. the guy is cool is all I can say, none of us has a scratch on the glass... it is awesome,
this is the link to this guy, and the price dropped, we got them all for 10, now there cheaper, http://www.ebay.com/itm/PremiumTempe...item3ce3ca6890

Anyone with experience from Xtremeguard, got a question for you
I paid for the 2-5 day USPS package shipping, but the shipping confirmation email states they shipped it via the 6-10 day regular envelope method.
Is it just a canned response email and the shipping i chose was used or did i get screwed out of 2 bucks? I know its not a lot of money, but its still something i paid for so i am curious. I dont want to end up with a damaged tempered glass protector like the last one i got from Amazon which was shipped in an envelope.
Anyone able to tell me if this fits with an Otterbox commuter? Before i order something from the other side of the planet
(6 quit shipping, that's the price of the product, bloody hell. Books weight 50 times more and ship for free...)

I also got a similar email, however when I checked under my account on their website, there is a tracking number available. So I guess this email is an auto-generated one which gets sent to all once the item is shipped. You should check under your account on their website for more information.

I just ordered 2 tempered glass screen protectors, a full body skin, and a carbon fiber back skin for $9.30.
What the hell, right?
Enjoy.
Have fun with those halos.
Nothing great actually, they will always have this promo on and off.
True, halo city with their sp.
Their sp won't last long, not because of the quality, but I change it for a better looking one few weeks later.
I had the Deff, only lasted a week. Dust under the FFC was almost immediate since there is no silicone across the top of it. I have been sticking with regular screen protectors since. For $3, I didn't really care. Deff was a waste of money. Either way, I figured I'd share, not everybody knows they always have these sales.
