Everywhere says that the Spigen Slim Armor case is incompatible with the Verizon G2, and I know that's probably the case. But out of pure curiosity, has anyone at all even tried putting it on the Verizon model? The only difference is the button layout, and there's enough room for them by the looks of things.
Yep. It fits but it doesn't go over the screen because of the wireless charging
Does this pose a threat to the phone by the case falling off easier if it's ever dropped?

I have ordered a few cases before I was told that the TMobile USA HD2 is a slightly different size than others and now I have received those cases and they don't fit, now I am dissapointed and back out on the search for a case that actually looks nice and fits as well...Any advice? One case I do like is this :
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150398009772&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
But please dont let this limit your advice/recommendations... I am looking for any kind of case other than a leather pouch type case and I also do not wish to have those leather cases which have a flap that covers the screen..... any advice ?
I have been using a T-mobile Wing case I found for $5 at the tmo store on clearance. Good fit but it snaps on the front and it makes me nervous every time i push on them and they push against the glass. Still looking for a better case.
Someone told me the type that are held closed using a magnet may cause the famed "newton ring" so i'm not sure what to get.

Don't get that one. I ordered the exact one weeks before I got TMOUS hd2, and it doesn't fit.
I mean, it fits, but not perfectly. Plus, the material was too rubbery.
I don't even know if that's the word, but it's very shiny and doesn't feel that great in my hands.
It gives killer grip on any surface, though.
But once again, that cover does not fit your device perfectly.
I threw it away. such a waste...
I'm using the default gel skin it came with.
It's very nice, surprisingly. it's not the normal silicone cover that attracts every sort of dust in your pocket.
yeah i ordered two cases off ebay and one came in guess what they don't fit lol..awaiting more cases
I ordered and received that case already, but I wanted one that fits my phone...it does not fit completely but it will do , it is very nice in my opinion, shiny and slick , I do not like the stock one too much as it causes my fingers to feel dry and sticks in my pockets so it doesn't slide out easily enough...
any advice...anything like a 'barely there' case for our phone ?...
please post any ideas/ advice/ experiences/ anything..

I don't have an HD2, yet, but...
I've used a horizontal belt holster with a magnetic clasp for my TP2 since I got it in September. It's in the holster everyday, and I have yet to see a Newton Ring develop on my screen.
When I get an HD2, I'll be calling my local T-Mo store every week to inquire about future cases (like the one erebusting purchased) for the HD2 -- I'm afraid a 3ft drop would cause the thin phone to break in half! I also want a thin, hard case so I can still put the phone in a horizontal belt holster (I hate putting my phones in my pants pockets).
Hi guys,
Was just wondering if anyone had any recommendations for cases for the G2?
I like how it looks naked but am worried about dropping it!
If it was made entirely of that grippy grey material and didnt have the aluminium finish on the back itd make a difference but..
Also if phones had wrist strap loops I wouldn't need a case at all!
What are you guys using and what's good about it?
Thanks!
Edit: erm i just realised the existence of the G2 accessories forum
Sorry mods! orz
i got a smoke clear case from vanguard... 5/5 stars
Check out the Accessories forum
I like the cheap black G2 case that is posted in the accessory forum. I also trade off between that and the clear case with kickstand that T-Mobile sells. Got it on accessorygeeks.com for cheaper though. The clear one is hard to take off.
I use the G1 OEM Black Pouch for my phone. Mostly when its in my pocket to protect it from my keys and to keep dust away. Fits perfect. About $4 bucks on Ebay.
the cases at accessorygeeks.com are good
if you live in canada it takes 3 weeks to ship to you
I run naked! Well I grabbed a Stealth Guard on their site for $3 and so far I like it, protects the back fairly well...just wished it was on the side better
Bought a $3 case off of Amazon. Great fit butthe paint job isn't the best.
I was watching a lot of reviews about this phone.
TheVerge review:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=herJmqIGOoM at 2:25, he says that it is a glass phone and he dropped the phone
from his kitched table.
And the back of the phone, near the camera got a crack.
I am buying this phone and also planning to buy a protective casing?
Do you have any recommendations? What kind of casing I should go with.
I have zero knowledge about this.
A TPU case is the one to go with in this case.

I want something that looks cool and avaliable in Canada. I understand the cases will be avalible
few weeks after the release of the phone but any good companies.
Are any of you planning to go with a casing. I dont want to buy a case at all but the review scares me
I sold iPhone cases for awhile. It's going to come down to taste for more people than not, but if you want the most protection, the Griffin Survivor, the Lifeproof case and the Otterbox Defender were what I'd recommend (assuming all of those are made for the N4; the Otterbox will certainly be, but can't say for sure about the others). Another extremely protective option that isn't discussed much for whatever reason are cases that are also wallets; they tend to have a lot of padding, and at least then you've got something that serves double duty. Not all of them are well made of course, but some are. I have no idea who'll be making wallet cases for the Nexus 4, though; you'll have to just wait on that.
If you want something slimmer but still protective, the Speck CandyShell is a solid option; it has both rubber for shock absorption and hard plastic for stability & feel. And I'd guess it (or one of their similar products) will be made available for the Nexus 4, since they made a version of their (IMO quite handsome) Pixelskin HD for the Galaxy Nexus.
I have bought the D802 international model, and I know how fragile the device is.
I have seen many cases, but I haven't managed to figure out which case will actually protect the device.
What cases really do protect the device ? (even at the price of a little added bulk)
I am considering buying the Ballistic Shell Gel SG, Or the spigen slim armor.
What do you think of this choices, do you have other suggestions ?
Also, what can I put on the screen to protect it ? I saw the glass-M nano, but I also saw some negative opinions on it..

I order something like this:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Free...Skin-Holster-Protector-Swivel/1408732118.html
Price is good, and it looks good also, but I can't tell u, how is working because I've not recive it yet
Not sure if this is the right spot or not but I just picked up a s7 and I need a good holster case.
I'm not a fan of the otter box. I don't like the built in screen protector. I like to use the zagg screen protectors. I usually use a plastic case that slides into the hip holster on my s4 but since the s7 seems to be fragile I want to go with something a bit better than that.
Anyone use a holster case and like it? What brands and styles?
Thanks
Nite Ize XL Hard shell case is the only one I've found that will hold the S7 with a protective case on it. Fits and protects well except the belt clip doesn't swivel.
Look an Amazon, that's where I found mine.

What kind of case did you go with?
I got this one https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01D8ZFVJS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and I really liked it. I did break it but I got it caught getting into my car and really put all my weight on it, but I cannot blame the case for that.
I don't remember the brand but it came with a light case and a slide in holster that has a swivel clip.
I've been using these types of cases for more than 5 years now.
I got this one for my S7 Edge and I really like it: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01D3RRH70/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
They make one for the non-Edge S7s, too: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01BCP4462/ref=s9_acsd_hps_bw_c_x_5_w

Yes I love these cases also. This is all I've ever used on all my phone's I've ever had but I'm afraid with the exposure at the ends of the phone and with how fragile this phone is that it may not be a good idea since I'm pretty hard on phones lol
