I can't seem to find a Gel Case anywhere. What would be ideal is one that is notched out at the bottom so it can still be used with the dock. Can anyone point me in the direction of any gel case? Thanks.
Idk if we will ever see a gel case that will fit both the keyboard and tablet....... but gumdrop is coming out with a great looking gel/hard case!

I'm so desperate for a gel/silicone case too. I can't believe there isn't one out there. The things must be cheap as hell to make... come on, China!

yes sir.... I'm looking for a simple, thin, gel/silicone case. I may do some mods to my prime and need it to cover things up
Looking for more of a felt case, kind of like the ones incipio make. Any suggestions?

I'll help you out, here's the link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Asus-Eee-Pad-Transformer-Prime-TF201-Skin-Case-Soft-Gel-Fitted-Cover-Black-/280848492153?pt=US_Tablet_Accessories&hash=item4163dfe679 This is what I originally wanted but it wasn't available, ended up with the Roo case instead. I still might pick one up.

Its a start ... I asked if they plan to carry clear color
YES! I can't believe it took this long but I'm happy. I'll probably order the eBay one above just to get something on my TFP and then hope that maybe some higher quality with different colours becomes available.
Just bought one! Glad to finally see a case like this.
I ordered one off ebay. I can't believe how long it took for these to be released. I would prefer TPU or a plastic snap-on case to soft silicone, but its a helluvalot better than nothing.

+1. I just ordered mine too. I expect something better to come along but this will do for now.
I would love to see a review on these when you guys get them. I'm thinking about getting one for mine

Ordered one this morning as soon as I saw the link. Thanks!
Ebay guy said no clear version coming... but what does he know really as these cheap things just come in from Asia.
How is the case? Is it snug and does it stay on?
I got one from Otterbox like that one for my EVO and it was too loose. Please let me know. Thanks!
Just ordered one. Thanks!
Now if anyone can find a cheap smart cover ($44.99 is ridiculously overpriced) that would be great!!!
Got one too. Thanks for the link!
Anyone have any experience with a case from Ventev? I've never even heard of them, but looking at their site it seems they make a lot of products.
Anyways I found this http://www.tessco.com/products/displayProductInfo.do?sku=532148&eventPage=1.
Honestly never heard of them myself. The price looks like it may be on the high end for what it seems to be, but if it's good quality then it'd be worth it. If you get one, post back and let us know how it is. I have a cheap Ebay TPU case on the way for now but I'm keeping my eye out for a good one.
I havnt heard of that case series, im waiting for the Commuter Case by Otterbox.. Still hasnt been released.. :/

Have you received your TPU case? I ordered one yesterday but I got an email today from the vendor saying that they just found out they wouldn't fit AT&T phones and they refunded me. Now I'm not seeing any TPU ones on ebay.

I ordered mine off eBay 2 days ago and got the same message, he also gave me a full refund. Time to start saving pennies for an otterbox!

Thanks, I saw that. I've had 2 piece cases on my other phones in the past (incipio, body glove) and I actually prefer the cheap TPU ones best. The cheap TPU ebay/amazon ones (like this: http://tinyurl.com/ct4ktzd) are really low profile, slide in and out of the pocket easily, are flexible yet firm enough to absorb shock from reasonably high drops and only cost like $3. Hopefully someone comes out with one for the OG soon. I might buy one of those ones you linked to in the meantime.

I will be gone all week for work, so you will probably have yours first. Will look for your post.
Ventev Case
The case arrived and fits the AT&T LG Optimus G E970.
The case consists of 2 parts, a TPU case and a Polycarbonate back cover. The Polycarbonate back cover can be taken off and you can then just use the TPU case.
All buttons remain functional with the case even though the case covers them, and all of the ports and the camera remain functional and accessible.
I have no problem slipping in or taking the phone out of my pocket with the case on.
The case does add significant thickness and heft to the phone, but the case seems solid.
I should mention that I ordered the case from Amzer.com, but it looks identical, and has Ventev printed on the back Polycarbonate cover.

What about power button notification light?

The notification light gets covered up unfortunately.
Here's some crappy pictures. Only complaint is the tpu rubber part fits really tight. It was hard to get in and lifted up the corner of the screen protected. But took it straight from mailbox and put on phone, so maybe I should have let it warm up.
Thanks for the pictures, folks. I'll probably go ahead and get the Ventev case for now until Otterbox comes out If it does, of course).
So, from what I see, the Amzer and Ventev cases are identical, except for the logo on the back?
Hi guys.
I currently have a case from mobile fun that has s-view and qi charging. it is good but the screen is scratched and has seemingly made scuff marks on the phone screen also. at least i have a screen protector on.
i dont really utilise the benefits of the s view like music from the home screen etc and as soon as it moves slighlty off centre the full screen shows below so i lose the s view screen.
so, i want a case, not just a replacement back that has qi charging but not a flip cover/s view.
do they do them and are there any recommenations?

Glad you had a screen protector.
For the case you're looking for, I don't think so. Most people on here are using Qi insert receivers. Mine works fine. Use what ever case you want.

It's it easy to use a qi insert? Which is a good one, i read a lot about over heading with them.
I like the spigen slim armour case, any experience with it?
Cheers for the help

This thread has a lot of info... a lot.
I never tried that case, I use an insert with the Spigen Neo hybrid... works well... The insert is ineffective 5mm away from the charge pad. 1mm is taken from the insert and the backcover of the pphone... that leaves you with 4mm. Your case needs to be less than 4mm thick. I think the slim armour meets this.
Happy hunting.

Not sure what the nfc does for the charger.
Check out the thread I posted earlier... and then you can make a decision on the charger. I got something cheap and stylish for my nightstand but works fine.

Self explanatory title.
I'm choosing a good protection case for LG that work with the LG WCD-100 charger.
I almost buy the Spigen Slim Armor, but then i read that it doesn't work it.
Can you indicate a good option to me??
Thanks
Its not a WiFi charger its a qi charger. The total distance that qi is rated for is 7mm so between the back of the phone, case and charger that's the maximum it can charge through going off the qi standard.

No problem, I know it's hard to measure and know how far the qi coil is from the phone, so if the slim armor is too thick the odds are you will need a thinner protective case that will hold up just as well.

And i dont know if im wrong,but what i see is that these cases from LG arent real cases, just back covers to chamge the original back cover (protecting the battery) with a more rugged back cover with qi support on it.
Im looking for a transparent case like the spigen ultra hybrid
The only thing I dont like about that case is the antena cutout.
Do you think this cheap one will protect the phone any good compared to the spigen?

I got this Ballistic Clear Case.
I also have the supcase. It's translucent, not transparent, if that matters to you. You don't really see the full beauty of the phone through it, but you do kind of see through to the back.
Wireless charging works fine with it.

I've got the Supcase as well (I have the white phone and got the grey/clear case). So far, I like it a lot. Wireless charging works through it, just barely; it's almost too thick, so you have to be careful how you position your phone to avoid the "slow charge" warning.
The only issue I have with it is the weight; it's heavy enough that my Infinniapps magnetic car mount doesn't work with it. I could have moved the magnet to between the case and phone and it probably would have been fine, but then the plate would have blocked NFC or Qi. I just went and bought a different mount unit instead with clamps instead of magnets (this one) - the reason I went with magnets was because of the clamps hitting the buttons on the sides, and since the G3 doesn't have those it should be fine.
