It's a little on the expensive side, but I'm curious about a couple of things if anyone has ever used it:
1) They say that it's metal + tempered glass, so does it impede signal at all?
2) It looks thicker than the original back cover, so I wonder if it can accommodate a slightly thicker battery; even if I have to shave the inside of the case a bit.
The back is like the iPhone, glass. I can't say about reception I have not used any aluminum cover/bumper.

The back looks really cool, but other metal battery covers have been known to impede reception. I too would like to know if this does or not.
I've been wondering the same about this back

If it should be a match with your suit and tie , then I think it's the perfect solution
Yeah I don't put cases on my phones, so that's a non-issue. Just looking at nice back cover that might fit a larger battery with a bit of... persuasion (read: sandpaper).
Also, @chrisleon11590, go take your shameless plugs somewhere else.

We the case arrived today and IMHO the quality is great and it adds the high end feel and look that I was looking for and does not affect the signal one bit. Now the cons are it does add some thickness to the phone. it basically levels out with the camera lens but slightly higher so it does not scratch. and second it you have fat fingers with no nails the s pen may bug you taking it out of phone. Ill post pics in am I left my s3 at work
Anywhere else sell them? Guy on eBay link is away until February tenth?

majority of the sellers selling these are from china or hong kong, during these 2-3 weeks, it's chinese new year, and it's hard to find a seller from the us or uk selling these, these product are too new, may be after a few months or so you may find a non chinese seller.

Bumper case with a glass-back phone..
Why not just get one with a handle across the top, they you could actually use it as a curling rock.
I'm totally with you on the bumper case. Want want WANT. I've also seen some cases that are silicone with a clear plastic backing... might do in a pinch. Still much prefer a bumper (that's not $35... yeesh).
I have Belkin Bumper and I'm happy with it.. The only Con I have is the Headphone Jack/Port.. I have the Cassette Adapter in my car and it does not fit as the hole on the top is small. For that reason I might want to sell this case. If I can and get a new simple one.

I hate the bumper case. So ugly and bulky. You can remove the rubber part from the outer shell and that's the size I wish it was. But you can't use it that way since it is loose and looks unfinished.

I agree that the bumper is too expensive for what it is. I spent $35 on a bumper I used for 3 days, and stopped because it was much bulkier than it needed to be and ugly to boot. My LG's naked now and I feel fine.

I found this bumper for the E971 on a Canadian retailer's website. Seems like the E971 and the At&t E970 are the same size so it should fit:
gocellular.ca/?item=lg3005 (new member so wont let me post direct link)
Part number for this is CCH180AGCABK and seems to be manufactured directly by LG. Looks much slimmer than the Belkin version.
According to Rogers website, it's the same size as the 973, not 970

Yep your right wasn't paying close enough attention, site I was using to compare sizes showed the E970 at 5.15 x 2.82 x 0.33 (131 x 72 x 8 mm) and the E971 at 131.9 x 68.9 x 8.5 mm (5.15 X 2.82. X 0.33). I looked at it in inches got excited and then failed to see that it is actually a different size.
lady at puremobile.com said this was for the AT&T version and would not fit the Sprint version. I ordered it via Amazon...we'll see.

I had mine on a wireless charger on a table about 5ft up. I got up to get some water, stepped on the wire and the device launched in the air about 8-9 ft with stock case. Landed face down on the screen. I thought it was totally done. I pick it up and not one scratch. I guess some are just luckier than others . I drop my phone from 5 feet+ all the time doing bunny hops on my bike when it falls out of my pocket and never any scratches. I think this phone is really strong and durable. Can I see a picture of the device? It hurts to see such a great device and such terrible condition.

So I've been looking around for an aluminum protective case for my note 3 since it came home. As most of you have heard from others, the full aluminum cases despite the protection, suffer from drastic signal loss. I figured I couldn't go wrong with an aluminum bumper and bought two awesome looking bumpers off ebay. One is a gorgeous solid aluminum bumper with no hole for mic but really nicely made and a thin aluminum bumper with all openings. The biggest drawback of both of these bumpers is that there is no camera protection. As all of you have noticed the rear camera is raised a bit, which makes these bumpers a no go if your laying it down on rear. I saw a full protective case on Ebay that was composed of three pieces : aluminum frame, silicone style case and aluminum rear with a cutout. I went ahead and ordered for a measly $14 and some change, thinking it wouldn't be a big loss. My package arrived today from Hong Kong and I couldn't be happier. I absolutely love it. It is the exact look and feel I wanted. For those who want a nice solid aluminum case with no signal loss I recommend you get one. I hardly write stuff on here but I felt compelled to share my experience.
Here's the link to ebay ad.

I'm pretty sure its for NFC as well. Plus it helps with reception as opposed to solid rear cases with affect reception. Personally I'd like to see someone step it up and make some premium CNC cut luxury cases lime they make for iphones with nicely made cut outs in rear. I reached out to three of those companies today , like MeeJoJo and 2 of them said only iphones and s4 's.
These are just some cnc cases for iphone 5s that I'd like to see for our phones.
I think that case is ugly and weird looking. I think it makes the phone look like a plain block of metal. Maybe it would look better if it was black anodized aluminum.

Had something similar for my previous Note 2. These metal cases tend to cause the phone signal to degrade. Hope you guys won't experience that problem.

Using it right now. Sure it does feel heavy and stuff. Aint water proof more like water resistant the glass panel of the casing easily left a finger print mark. Phone feels solid and sturdy drop it a few times and it sure does give u a peace of mind knowing how well this case protects your phone. To me even if it feels heavy or big or bulky it is well worth it to spend on it rather than letting your phone drop and smashed.

I actually ordered one of these last week for $28 eBay. I'm hoping it is decent. Didn't buy for waterproof just want drop protection. Search the forums other people have reviewed this case. Plus there's some reviews on Amazon.

i had one for my S4 and I can tell you the following:
water covering over the earpiece makes it hard as hell to hear anyone
water covering over the speaker makes anything playing out of it dull sounding and not as loud
water covering over the mic makes anyone on the phone sound muffled
Now I took all my water coverings off so it was pretty much a metal otterbox with no waterproof seals and I loved it. Some people didnt like how heavy it was, but it was not a big deal for me.

Now I took all my water coverings off so it was pretty much a metal otterbox with no waterproof seals and I loved it. Some people didnt like how heavy it was, but it was not a big deal for me.

I love that idea.
This case is great for the look and little water protect but what's happening for the reception for phone, wifi, BT, GPS ... ?

The back and the sides are not covered by metal so the reception shouldn't be affected.

Great, thanks a lot for your reply. I buy it as fast as possible !
Well whenever I saw the TakTik case for the iPhone I was VERY tempted to jump over the chasm just for that beautiful beast of a case! I've always looked for a case that would mimic the TakTik. If anyone can post a picture or two of it, and also if anyone finds a link for a low price for one, I'm sure all of us will appreciate it!

Found one for $29.90 with free shipping worldwide! There are some a bit cheaper, but I always search for the seller with a decent amount of feedback at 100%. You can also choose from a few colors!
Does anyone know about the screen protector that's built in? How responsive is it?

I got one on my phone everything is functional. Yes s-pen is in there but on exposed there is a mod to hid all items in the top left of the status bar so this way you can leave your s-pen a quarter of the way out and you will be able to pull it out with your finger nail other then that it's great. I had to buy a case with a holster for the 6.3 mega to use it with a holster. I heated up the side of the holster with a heat gun bent them out and now it's no longer a brick in my pocket. Down side it's heave now with the case one hit and you can knock someone out cold with it and still make a phone call when done. Lol I haven't tried. If you guys want pics I'll be happy to post some.

Pretty responsive. It was made of a real glass not sure is it a true corning gorilla glass or just a normal glass for the case screen protector. I'd say worth the money bro. Should get it. Im sorry no picture as i didnt have a phone or xtra phone to take a picture of it

Is there any sort of TPU on any of their protection levels to help absorb shock/impact in case of a fall?
Thanks for all the responses! I ordered one from the link I posted earlier. When I receive it I will make a video for you all, probably won't be anything special but it I'm sure will help out your decision making process. I absolutely can not wait!

I had ordered a week ago the same case and I hope it will be here in a week out two but now I thought how this case glass will be on my phone since I got mime ghost on it, really haven't thought it, you think I can put above the case glass? Or I need to take out the mime?

It's a bargain for $5, check out the video for more details.

I bought it. Absolute waste of money imo.
Why you even started a thread and miss titled it without having the product? Really placeholder?

I hot it for less than $1, haven't used it yet. Why do you say it's a waste of money?

I second this, the fit is anything but good. There are rather large gaps around the screen which defeats the purpose of having a screen protector.
It has poor fitting(large gaps on the side). Pretty thick compare to other protectors. Are you sure you got the temper glass protector? I find it hard to believe you got it for $1. I paid $6 and it's a waste.
I paid $16 for a flexible glass protector by iloome. Now that's worth the money. Great fit.
I have 0 gaps on mine, I think it's user error. If fits perfectly & I even have a case on mine. I purchased 10 of these for 10 different devices & good investment.

I have the spartan glass on the galaxy s5, and by far its the best one I've tried! I was planning to buy the same for the G3 but they are out of stock and then I see the negative reviews!
More to the point, the video actually shows the flaw everyone is talking about: Even though you have pushed the glass further from one side, the other side, still has a small gap! even ignoring that, the fact that you have left space on one side but the other side hasn't gone off the screen means the fit is not perfect. Don't get me wrong, it's still a great value but I can see where the complains are coming from.
Thank man for the video review nonetheless.

I saw no issues with it & fits fine for me. But if worse comes to worse, I'll just contact them & get it replaced. Their CS is AMAZING!
The edges of the screen protector don't go over because the gap is very minimal when I attached it, if I would have removed it & put it on again I'm sure it would have fit fine.
I'm just glad you don't even notice it with a case on it & it doesn't lift at all.

I don't know where all these rave reviews are coming from, maybe I got a bad unit from XtremeGuard. The glass protector is very thick, it feels sticky to the touch, it doesn't line up well and there's no cut out for the camera. If I hadn't ordered it a month ago for 90% off I would have sent it back. Now it will just sit collecting dust.

It can't be user error because if there are gaps its a manufacturing error not a user one. A user can't make the protector smaller.

Exactly. If you have room to push the screen protector over and it leaves a gap on one side then it doesn't fit.
All the protectors I've had that have the "gap" makes them case friendly. I prefer that myself, but to each their own I guess.

I understand your point, my only issue is the size of that gap. On other screen protectors it's almost non-existent, but this one has a big gap in comparison.
