EDIT: Updated with pics of it installed now that my phone has arrived.
I'm not a huge fan of cases that add bulk to the phone. Over the course of the past 2 years I have grown fond of TPU cases as they protect all edges/sides of the phone while also not turning the phone into a brick. With the G3, I once again went on the hunt for a solid TPU case that didn't have the cutout on the top left of the phone for the expandable antenna that is not found on the U.S. version.
After doing some searching, I narrowed it down to a few different TPU cases but in the end the Fosmon TPU case seemed to be the best option. It's very cheap at only $5.97 with tax + free shipping, doesn't have the cutout on the top left, and has all the appropriate cutouts. I was surprised/happy to see that the back of the case is flat black while the sides are gloss (I missed this in the product description). It makes for a great look.
It arrived today and as I suspected, it fits perfectly. The cutouts are perfect and it's a nice tight fit all the way around. So if you are like me and enjoy the minimal protection TPU cases provide, I don't think you'll be disappointed with this case.
** I also installed a Spigen Tempered Glass screen protector as well (seen in the pictures). The case fits perfectly with the screen protector as well.

I haven't seen anyone post the TPU case I have so i figured i would. I got it for $10 at the sprint store and couldn't find is cheaper than $20 online.(i got a 50% discount). anyways i have some pictures check it out. I really like the look of it compared to the other cases out there. Oh and the honeycomb adds a nice grippy texture and protects the camera and the front screen. heres only link i can find where they sell them in different colors as always

Looks nice, but I hate the idea that the camera lenses are not protected.
I really like the clear one!! Thanks for sharing
I hope they sell that in black or grey.
hmm looks like Red/Clear/Smoke and Pink for the ladies
i have this case but in the smoke color. i picked it up at a sprint kiosk for 20 bucks. i love it. and as for the camera not being covered, it mat not be covered but the case makes it not sit flush on stuff. i always choose a tpu case over any other case. they are cheaper and they protect just as good as any other case.
I have one in Smoke and i love it. It is stiffer than standard TPU cases which i really like and the camera does not touch when you lay it on it's back.
Got my tpu case from daydeal.com thru amazon for 9 bucks. Best case I've owned.

I really like this case! Thanks!
oh look at that very nice $8.61 ^^^
I recently had the opportunity to get a few of these cases to try out on my photon. I must say I have never really been a fan of TPU cases, but these are great!
The fit of these cases is perfect and very form fitting. You don't lose any of the cool design of the edges of the photon. The ports are all accessible and I haven't had any issues with the speaker on front or back being covered up. The volume rocker and camera buttons are covered and have raised buttons over them. Only issue i would have is i wish they had done the same over the power button as sometimes it is difficult to press. It ads barely any weight at all to the photon.
It glides in and out of your pocket and mine actually still fits in my leather pouch with the TPU on.
I love the look of the smoke colored one that I was sent. You can see the Motorola logo through the back as well as the sprint logo.
I also tested out a solid black one that was nice and a green one. They all have an argyle design on them which I really like. My wife liked the green case and if she had a photon I would buy her one as well.
Overall this case has completely opened my eyes and this is exactly what I needed for my photon. With the gorilla glass I don't really have to worry about the screen and now the outside is protected as well without losing the slim and cool design that I really love about the photon.
If you want a TPU case I would suggest buying them from cruzerlite and supporting a great product and fellow xda member. You can find them on Amazon or the cruzerlite website.
I will post some pics. Any questions or want other pics let me know.

I wish they weren't argyle. Otherwise I would have bought one
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
I bought one similar from sprint. Had to cut buttons covers off because it was pushing in on power button and making phone go wacky on its own. Would also move too much on edges and was pealing edge of invisibleSHIELD. Now its sitting on my desk, which reminds me...will visit the trash can on my next trip to the kitchen.
I got the hard case and much happier, plus more rim protection when placed face down.
The jet black one is not argyle
The inside is,the outside is not.

Hey everybody, just thought I would give you a heads up on a great product, I plan on getting one for my Note this summer when I get my beast.
http://www.senacases.com/samsung-cases/galaxy-note/ultraslim/
It's the Sena Ultraslim pouch. I had one for my iPhone 3G and for my Captivate, and they are great cases. They are made of high quality leather that is hand stitched and buttery soft. I highly recommend them, as they are great for those of you that like to use your device naked, yet want some ultra thin protection for when it's not in use. Inside the pouch is a soft, velvety material that will somewhat clean the screen of your device as well. The pouch starts out kind of tight to the device, but loosens up a bit with use and conforms to the curves of the device perfectly. It barely adds any thickness or weight to the device as well. I had one white and one black for my iPhone, and a black one for my Captivate. The white can get dirty, as it is leather, but good care will keep it clean. Also, when you take the device out, if you hold it behind the device it can provide a little grip on the device with the leather being warm from your pocket, as the leather grips the plastic of the phone. I plan on getting a white one to match my white Note.
Here is a picture of the white one, they also have black, brown, and red.

Feel free to ask me any questions! And hit thanks if I found a new case for you!
Edit: One note, it does not work very well with Zagg InvisibleShield screen protectors due to the tight fit and the rubbery nature of those protectors. However, most high gloss or matte protectors have no troubles at all.
Wow
I really wish there was a design like this but as a case instead. It would be nearly the same thing. Maybe a flap on the top to tuck in and close it, with cutouts for the screen, buttons, and USB.
The only options we have right now for leather cases are either bulky, or flip. no thanks.
I'm tempted to order this and see if I can make the appropriate cutouts myself.
I just submitted a comment to them suggesting this.
So I got two new cases in today, and one is the Pierre Cardin brown leather case! I recently purchased a leather one for my Note 4 and one for my mom's Note 5, and honestly, I love these cases. The real leather feel is so cool, and it's nice and soft when you place the phone down. I have a TSCASE leather case as well, and I can say that this one might just offer a tad more protection on the corners, and is a tiny bit beefier than the TSCASE so that it feels a bit more substantial and curved. The feel in the hand is awesome.
The packaging is nice from the company:

All buttons are easily accessible, and honestly, compared to the TSCASE leather one, the power button feels better on this because of how the cutout is:
Can easily access the heart rate scanner:
I love the look of the stitching on the back:
All ports accessible:
Overall, looks awesome and feels awesome
This case is definitely worth it if you're like me and you're bored with basic TPU type cases. I love leather cases on these phones; it just gives it a different feel. They have a bunch of colors, but I decided to just stick with ol tried and true brown leather...plus, it matches my moto 360 2015 watch band! i personally haven't had any cons with their cases, but one member claimed that on the note 4 case, when it got so hot from setting his phone up, the inside piece of felt or lining came apart from the leather. i've yet to seen this, as i've done the setup on my note 4 as well, but who knows if that's an issue. he may just have gotten a faulty case; i haven't had a problem with my note 4 or note 5 case, and my s7 case is still doing great.
bought it off amazon, and they do prime shipping as well. totally worth it if you want a high quality leather case

Being a holster user, and not someone who keeps my phone in a pocket, (work!)
each time I get a new phone I immediately purchase a PDair leather holster.
They are the lowest profile holster you can find.
Most holster use a big bulky plastic clip. Not these.
They come in 5 or 6 different colors.
I did a little comparisons of phone sizes on a few websites, and figured out the iPhone 7+ case works the best.
If you use the coupon code pdair at checkout, you can get it for $37.79 shipped.
Just received the case after about 2 weeks (from China).
Absolutely perfect.
High quality genuine leather, not some fake stuff.
The inside is coated in a soft foam, so works great with or without tempered screen protector.
There's a bottom cutout for speaker, charger, and headphone jack.
The bottom 2 pictures were taken with an iPhone, which is why they look worse. =)

I want something like that but without the clip, just like a sleeve I can put it in for when I chuck the phone in a bag, not found anything yet (in UK anwyay). Dont want some big expensive thing, just a basic sleeve I can put it in to keep it clean from dust and dirt in the bag and give some small protection to it.
Check out nutshell cases from New Zealand.

Easily the best and also the best looking.
