I bought one from caseology and that thing ain't thin at all. Does anybody know where I can get a thin case preferably plastic
I have the Incipio Feather for the G3 and it's pretty thin, I like it. It fits tight too which is good. The Caseology has a tiny bit of slack making the phone move around in it. Once some grit gets in there that movement makes the case like sandpaper to the back of the phone.
Red shield tpu on Amazon.
G3
Cruzerlite bugdroid cases. That are much thinner than the Caseology. I can post a comparison because I have both. I need to stop buying cases.. I have 12 now..

I hope these help out. I really like the Cruzerlite, it has a nice finish on the back for a TPU case and the fit us excellent.

hey guys! as we all know the case situation for the gn3 sucks right now. I have preordered the uag in orange for my black gn3, I was using the diztronic and poetic invictus case up until last week when my gn3 took a slight but harmless spill. It got me to thinking that i need a little more protection until the uag arrives. The poetic invictus wasn't cutting it in fact I have using the diztronic exclusively after using the poetic invictus only a day. Ebay to the rescue! ordered a defender knock off that included a kickstand for 9 bucks shipped.Heres the link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/40058067139...eName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
Overall a very solid case with great protected especially for the screen the front lip is just as deep as the defender
Comes in multiple colors
the built in stand is adjustable from multiple angles and seems sturdy
The downside is NO portrait viewing for the stand and this case does not include dust flaps for the ports.
Conclusion, id say this is a very solid rugged case to hold us over until the uag and otterbox arrive, is it as high quality as either no but it is a great bang for your buck at 9 bucks.
i'll include pics(which include a side by side with the poetic invictus) and be please nice this is my first mini review guys, thanks.
Let me start by saying i HATE using a case. I would never consider an Otterbox before due to the thickness, This case seems to be slim. Anyone have experience with it?

I have had the Symmetry case for a week or so now. I like it. I picked up a Spigen Slim Armor too. The Spigen is a bit slimmer, but the white color I picked stained quickly at work (I'm a mechanic). The Symmetry is a good bit thinner than the older Commuter cases. I'd say it's like an Urban Armor Gear case but without the extra corner protection and added thickness from the design in the plastic on the rear.
The Spigen Slim armor will give you nearly identical protection while being a tad thinner, just stay away from white. With that said, I really like the Symmetry series. It'll be on my G3 for a long while. Wireless charging still works flawlessly.

The blue one is the best. I've sadly dropped my g3 a couple of times and it's perfectly fine, the case however, has some scratches and nicks, but its definitely built to protect while being fairly slim. As you can see in my picture the color is awesome and really looks good in the light.

I bought the Symmetry case for the HTC One M8 and loved it. Am now waiting for Symmetry case for G3.
Just got this case for a great price from Amazon. I had a Body Glove case, which is nice, but I wanted a bit more protection and wanted a case that fit tighter to the phone. The Otterbox is perfect - REALLY tight, no loose sides or top or bottom, so it feels like a tank once it's on. It's a little tough to get off, but that's no big deal. I can also confirm it works fine for wireless charging.
I think this is the case I'll be keeping my G3 in until I get a new phone next year.
Hi everyone, just switched from my Nexus 5 to an LG G3 today. First priority is to pick up a decent case and screen protector combo.
Been reading on the forums but haven't really found many definitive answers.
I've been looking at 2 cases:
-Tudia Ultra Slim Lite
-Diztronic Matte Black TPU
If anybody can shed some light on which will offer a better fit and grip/feel in the hand, and which is more compatible with a wide variety of screen protectors,
it would be greatly appreciated.
Lastly, I've noticed a ton of screen protectors seem to have one large rectangular cutout for the earpiece and sensors which I do not like.
Which companies offer the most screen coverage? (Doesn't have to be glass)
I've noticed these Spigen Crystal Clear protectors show precision cuts but who knows how accurate that is
http://www.amazon.ca/Protector-Spig...373279&sr=8-5&keywords=lg+g3+screen+protector
I would like to put in orders this weekend so I can start using this badboy to its full potential!
Thank you in advance, hopefully I'll be able to shed light on other questions in return sometime soon.

Diztronics makes great quality cases. Was not a fan of the feel of tudia case for my g2. Cruzerlite cases are legit as well.
I don't have any pictures, but I have the Diztronic and love it. It has a nice feel and doesn't smudge like a gloss tpu would.
It's paired with a Zagg glass screen protector and fits well. For a glass that has precise cutouts the PThink brand that can be found on Amazon has just the earpiece cutout. I would have gotten that one if I found it before buying the Zagg.

Thanks for the replies guys, I ended up ordering the Diztronic + Spigen Crystal clear protectors
Just thought I'd give an update here, possibly for anyone looking for a good case for their phone.
Got my diztronic in the mail today, and it makes me wonder why I never bothered to order one of their cases in the past.
For the price you pay, you're getting a great fitting case which looks good and feels good in the hand. Doesn't seem to add much extra bulk to the phone either.

Did you get the regular TPU case or the ultra version of it? Both are nice! I'd also recommend the Tactical Impact by Tech21. It is similar to the Diztronic but the TPU is more rugged and interior is lined with D3O material. Awesome case for $20

I opted for just the regular diztronic TPU as I didn't want to add any significant bulk to the phone but still have some sort of scratch protection
One thing that worries me about it though is if the matte coating were to start rubbing off.
This happened to a rearth ringke case I purchased for my Galaxy S2 way back when. That was quite disappointing
You shouldn't need to worry about wear on the diztronic case. I've had one on my Galaxy S3 for a couple years without any visible wear and it goes everywhere with me.
So I bought the Spigen slim armor with kickstand case just recently and found that it is rather a thick case and added bulk to the N6. It in turns made the N6 not be able to fit the car mount I bought. Anyone got recommendation for a good slim case?

Ringke Slim Case.
But keep in mind. Slim cases like this offers less protection.
I really like my Diztronic case. It's thin and feels well protected. A few videos on YouTube where people do drop tests and it came out without a scratch.

Got the diztronic... its not like its slim
The slimmest i have is ringke
Try Orzly case, it is very very thin.
The Ringke Max is actually pretty 'slim' with a lot of protection. If you want close to naked feel, then the Ringke Slim might be best, but really not that much protection.

I bought the Spigen Ultra Hybrid (clear), Thin Fit (clear), Slim Armor and S Wallet. IMO the Slim Armor fit and looked the best, but FAT. The TPUs just made the phone uber FAT(er). The wallet hinge/flap/binder thing is too loose and flabby [I wanted tight form fitting].
I ordered several generic gel jelly slim TPU.
First one to arrive is one with a logo that reads INSTEN and I am very impressed by it.
It's tight (queue up Micheal Meyers), lip is thin and holds on to the frame without going over on to the glass, barely raised ever so slightly higher than the screen.
It makes the screen/viewing pop out (it might be the color I chose, yellow).
The cutouts are great, the thinly covered raised areas over the power and volume rocker are just right (if you have the slim armor you might experience what I have, where touching the buttons is just too sensitive).
Grippy and sturdy. Knocked some on the table, I'd use it to press some buttons, sure..
I might go order more colors.
Usually I like Goospery Mercury Gel TPU cases on my phones, but haven't found any made for the N6.
EDIT: easy in and out from pocket.
Thanks guys for your suggestions. I think I'm going to go with the slick wraps full body because it does not add any bulk and provide some protection.

That INSTEN case is identical to the Caseology cases. Probably made in china, and companies just put their own name on it. But they look OK with medium protection.

I'm not doubting your choice, as it's your phone. But any "protection" you get from a skin will be just to prevent scratches and no drop protection. Good luck.

I dont have the caseology, but from the images I can agree, sans dimple. It's a good thing being at 1/3rd the price. I went ahead and bought green and black as well. It is so far my fave case.
I'll add, you know the form, shape that the phone has, makes it fit well in the hand and really gives it that unique feeling that it is a much smaller phone. This case INSTEN keeps that feeling intact..

I also really like the diztronic case. Minimal and functional.
I actually have the carved case and it's really slim and seems somewhat protective. Especially since it's made of real wood!

Agreed. Fairly protective without being too bulky. Good grip too.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a case that preserves the top heaviness and dramatic tapering of thickness at the bottom of the phone? Basically I'm as concerned about drop protection as preserving the original "feel" of the phone.
I keep my Nexus 6 in my shirt pocket. I do my best to hold onto it when I bend, but I'm not perfect and it could fall. Is there some kind of case that would attach it to the pocket to keep it from slipping out.
I'm not eager for adhesives. Maybe a case or bumper with some kind of clip.

Depending on if you have a case or not, you may want to look at the Seidio holsters? They have clips. I just tried my dilex one with the nillkin bumper case and that works fine. A bit bulky but it's not going anywhere. But if you have no case, or a thinner case, they have clip holsters for that as well. I actually have the N6 surface holster that housed my Spigen Ultra Hybrid case, but because the Nillkin was a bit wider and longer I had to get the dilex version.
