[Q] Any interesting/unique cases (Or hardshell leather)? - T-Mobile LG G2x

So I've looked at all the popular cases and most of them were pretty minimalistic while offering protection. None of them had the pizazz I want though and I grow envious of iPhone users because they have much more interesting covers.
I'm wondering if there's more unique and special cases; I guess what I'm looking for are cases that are more "gimmicky."
I'm also interested in leather cases that are a hardshell with leather on the exterior without the cover flap.
I'd post pics but I'm a new member.

Nothing to help you, but I wish these guys would make some other cases: http://www.metaliphonecase.com/

i cant post a link (just re-registered) but type in g2x bumper case into google search and it will come up with the one i use. it kinda looks like the iphone bumper case but with a smoke grey back piece. hope that helps

Thin Hard Case

I'm looking for a hard case for the n1. I would like to find the thinnest case possible so that it doesn't add bulk. Ive seen a couple for the iphone that ive liked, but I haven't really seen much for the n1. Any suggestions?
Yeah open your eyes..
I guess I should mention.... I found a few, but they all suck. Some are argyle, some have flowers printed on them, and a lot of them, have a raised square in the back. I'm guessing for a belt clip. None of these are all that appealing to me.
Well, that wasn't helpfull.
The best I found is the Crystal Case: http://www.overstock.com/Electronics/Google-Phone-Nexus-1-Vinyl-Crystal-Skin-Case/4582739/product.html?cid=123620&fp=F&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=12517446
that square thing annoys me as well.
I just ordered off of ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/BLACK-Frosted-E...wItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item3a56f8d0fe
I will see what it looks like.

Yes that would change things drastically.
I got the TPU arguile one and its nice does a very good job of protection..
Just ordered http://cgi.ebay.com/5-EPIK-Case-Fro...Accessories?hash=item45f0974fb8#ht_3736wt_820 as well figured for 20 me and my girl could have a bunch of different colors if you are looking for a hard plastic I would say wait it out another week or 2 and seidios should be ready http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/csr3hnx1-bk.htm
They probably make the best hardcase I have ever seen.
I'm waiting on Seidio...these cases have always been quality thin protection for me!
does Seidio make gel cases too?

Don't think so, but you can check here: http://www.seidioonline.com/category-s/4025.htm
just put this on this morning, super tight snug fit
http://www.daydeal.com/product.php?productid=39711
I ran across a hard case that was slim and would also fit into the existing sleeve but lost the website. I know its probably a bit OCD but thought it would be nice to have the extra added. Been looking for it all over but can't seem to find it again! Anyone run across this?

I've had good luck with Seidio, so I'm stickin' with them.
Just ordered this (Innocase II and Holster combo pack)
http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/bd2-hlcsr3hnx1-bk.htm
Ships on the 1st. :-D
Purchased a hard case:
http://cgi.ebay.com/CLEAR-Phone-Cov...wItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item3a56b27079
Purchased a gel case:
http://cgi.ebay.com/SMOKE-BK-CHECK-...wItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item414c2ff716
Both are a great & tight fit. Both are quality cases.
The clear hard case is perfect for those situations where you need hard protection. Most of the time, I'm using the gel case, as I like the feel with the N1.
Try contacting....
www.ultra-case.com
&
www.iskin.com
i have owned both their products before on my blackberries..
and they are legit and protect fine.
i have sent emails to both of them and they said if there is demand for them they will make them.

It's a catch 22 waiting for the demand. When the demand hit, they'll have to do all of the design/distribution legwork. By that time, there'll already be many other options.

I concur. I bought a black and a clear smoke off ebay and both fit nicely and the phone still fits in my existing case. Only issue would be if you get the new desktop dock for the phone, as these cases don't expose the contacts.
Like some of the other members I bought the "gel" case from ebay:
It's pretty thin and seems to be very durable and fits great on the N1. As stated in the above post, the case does block 2 of the 3 (the 2 on the left side of the USB port) contact points on the bottom of the device.

Is there good soft case with no lint?

Im wondering if anyone has found a soft case that doesn't attract lint and dust to it like a magnet. I currently have the cheap silicon one from ebay.
dcmugen88-- search ebay for his epikcases. he includes really great screen protectors as well.
I find silicon ones always attracting lint from my trouser pocket for some reason, which is why I had almost forgotten the existence of silicon cases.
Just my 2 cents.
well anyway, why not go leather?
Take a look if you got a min or so it's pretty cheap for what it is

Try out the gelli by case mate. Not soft but it is flexible and a great alternative to silicone. Look up an iPhone review of the same case to see what I mean.
Everyone I have mentioned it to has purchased one.

Anyone try the Body Glove case w/ kickstand?

Has anyone tried the Body Glove case with kickstand? I can't post the link as a new user but it can be found on the Bodyglove.com website under Mobile and Epic 4G. I would really like a case with an integrated kickstand (one thing I still envy the EVO for). I've got the Sprint case just to keep my Epic protected, but I would like a higher quality product.
I'm not sure I'm a fan of the textured case, and it's a little pricey at $29.99. Hoping someone who has it can give me their take on whether it was a good buy.
looks like the kickstand is in the clip, not the case. They sell the clip seperate for 4.95, I wonder if it will fit on other cases? Anyone own one that can check it out?
You're not gonna provide us with a link to see what you are talking about?

I really would prefer if people actually read my posts before replying.
Thank you luis12285 for providing the link.
That looks like a nice case and the belt-clip/stand is sorta innovative combo. I'd really be interested to see if anyone else has used one or had their hands on one. I ordered the Body Glove case for my wife from Sprint.com accessories, but don't think its this model with the belt clip and kickstand.
Thanks for sharing this guys! Wasn't aware of it and definitely interested!
Looks interesting, but body glove cases for other phones I've handled in store are on the bulky side, and this one appears to be the same comparing the photos online to my sprint case.
I got the Body Glove case from Sprint Accessories and was really disappointed with the quality of construction. Sending it back. Went to to Best Buy and got the Platinum "quick clip" case with swivel holster. Keeps the screen safe against a felt lined holster. A little bulky, but better than scratching my baby!
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Platinu...07487&st=platinum case&cp=1&lp=8#BVRRWidgetID
Yeah I wouldnt go with the "Body Glove" on such a high end prestigious phone. I work in a foundry and have a Nokia 5800 (or something along those lines, crappy little flat phone.) that i use there because of all the sand/heat/oil that i'm around at work. I wouldn't dare expose my epic to sand/metal shavings! So I take the Nokia. It had a body glove on it.
The case lasted a few good months and then started to fall apart. Peices of connecting clips broke, leaving it floppy on one side of the phone, the "grip" stuff on the back of the phone is very grippy and feels nice, but unfortunatly it too peels off and away after a while. It's a very neat design of a case, but it just dosen't hold up. Just my 2 cents.

A hip holster that doesn't look like a cheap leather EBAY item

I am looking for a holster with a belt clip that doesn't look like a cheap EBAY rip off you get for $3. It doesn't need to be leather. I just want a nice one that will fit the G2x good.
PDAir (pdair.com) makes a great one, I've used them for all my phones. They're not cheap but they're very high quality. I have one coming and will post pics.

I've owned 2 of these, 1 for my N1, and one for my Vibrant. These are good cases and are very well made. I highly recommend.

I have two same cases for old Blackjack II from PDair. They were expensive, however they have held up well. The interior portion of the spinning clip came free from its attachment, so when it sits, it can bend at an angle, and isn't stiff. The rest of the clip and the outer part still attaches, its just isn't stiff and if I were to get it again for the G2x, I would get one with a permanent belt clip and not the spinny thing. The rest of the leather is OK and has held its shape- not too nice of a grain.
i have a pdair leather case for my old motorola xt720. It's of good quality but I don't really like the tightness of the case, but I do understand that most people would prefer having a tighter case. My concern is that they are probably selling this universal case for all phone models so it might be a bit too tight for the g2x (since my xt720 is smaller than the g2x and I was already complaining about its tightness)
quality-wise, it definitely live up to its price
I am still looking for a hip-holster leather case for this phone. I don't want to buy pdair's horizontal pouch leather case because I know it will be too tight... any more suggestions?

I'd like to find leather case without the front flip/folio design. Something similar to the OEM Samsung case but in leather. I haven't been able to find one, as they all have the front flip.

If you have deep enough pockets, id say go for the MontBlanc Meisterstück case. Had it for a few months, absolutely love it! Although I rarely use it so may sell if the price is decent.

I'd still like to find a non-flip leather case with the proper mic opening on the bottom that works with the Verizon Note 4.
What brand of screen protector are you using?
EVERYYONE ASKS ME ABOUT MY SCREEN PROTECTOR looool. Even when i list up cases etc on ebay people private message just ask what make my screen protector is and someone asked on another forum same thing. People just love my white/gold phone
Its just a generic one i bought from ebay for £1 lol nothing special. Found it way better then most £5-6 ones ive bought of ebay before leaving behind nasty halo affect. This is almost perfect. But it being white cant really see the right side halo but its because its slightly off or else itd be perfect as my other note 4.

Ah OK, guess you're in the UK then.
I've tried a total of 5 screen protectors for my Note 4, iLoome, iCarez, Cailifu, Coolbo and intelliArmor. The last 3 I listed are full edge-to-edge coverage.
Out of all of them, I like the intelliArmor best. I have the black, but it also comes in a white.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63092069&postcount=3013

I also have a similar one to this, Zenus Metallic Diary Synthetic Leather. Feels nice in hand and has better protection than other s-view type cases which don't support the sides when falling. not my type of case but maybe itl suit you.
