Verizon Holster Shell Combo - Just received - G2 Accessories

I just received my Verizon holster/shell combo, here are a few first impressions.
http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/...d=15307&accessoryId=66806&initialPhoneId=7091
(no pics yet, as I don't have another camera at the moment...later)
PROS
- Fits well, snug. Cut outs are good.
- Tough, case and holster are not going to break easy
- kickstand, you can prop up side ways or upright
- works fine with wireless charging
- I like having a holster for when Im out and at the gym. Makes it convenient to have 1 case that serves dual purpose
- Not falling out of the holster, TIGHT fit
CONS
- Heavy, adds a bit of weight to the device - not a deal breaker though
- Protects back and sides, bottom and top are left "open"
- bit slippery
- little hard to get out of the holster, snug. A little much I think
The case is $29.99 from VZW. I would recommend it to anyone wanting this style of case. Not for everyone as it adds some bulk overall.

I just got mine today and am very happy with it. I now have all the cases offered by verizon. I do like the incipio feather the best but would like it in black instead of grey. I use the holster with the incipio as well as the window case.

I ordered mine through the mobile store to get my discount. Probably will get tracking number Monday.

Three local corp. stores only had silicone case. I'm going to order the Incipio.

How to you like the ballistic?
Looked extremely bulky....
Pop Case and Seidio Clip
Does anyone know if the POP kickstand case will fit into the Seidio Surface holster clip??
$35 at the AT&T shop when I got mine. Seemed way too pricey so I skipped on it. Turns out they're still pretty expensive on eBay. That's too bad. I'll probably end up getting a gel case like I did for my Captivate.
Currently using this CaseMate case.
Very large case, but once I got used to it, the Optimus 3D felt too small
I like how it feels in the hand and the stand is a plus. Helps a lot, but the stand is made completely out of plastic and feels very flimsy. Always worried it might snap off if used too much.

It's bulky but it still fits in my front pocket. With my Infuse, I had a leather flip case (that the Thrill also fits in very well), I couldn't put it in my front pocket, had to go in the back.
I like the added corner protection.

Ahh..., the famous Pop Case, it's very popular for phones w/o kickstands, wanted one for my SGS II, but couldn't get myself to actually buy one.

I am not sure if the kickstand is made out of metal or plastic though, the picture is horrible. For people who want a more thinner case.

Same here. Also, the power button is a bit harder to push than the other case, but I like this case.
The real down side is that the kickstand makes the phone stand where the power plug is, so you can not have it plugged in to power when watching a video on it unless you hang that part over the edge of the counter\table.

Note 2 cases. What are you using and why.

Just interested to see what everyone is using. I can't seem to make my mimd up.

I bought the JKase Premium Quality Samsung Galaxy Note II 2 GT-N7100 Streamline TPU Case Cover - Retail Packaging - Clear from Amazon. It was cheap and I was able to get fast 2 day shipping with Prime. (can't post a link yet since I am new)
This case and my Note 2 will be arriving tomorrow. I hope the case will be enough to hold me over until a better deal comes about on a name brand case. I'll be pairing this with a Spigen screen protector.
Im using the white and grey case mate case from at&t. The reason, I billed it to my company.

Same here. I also have the Proclips mount in my car, meaning I have to take the case off to use it. The Body Glove case comes off and goes back on very easily.
Also bought the body glove one from sprint. Was worried about cases and adding bulk but this seems to be minimal and my phone doesn't feel like it's going to slip out of my hand every time I hold it.

I went to several Sprint locations, and none of them had the body glove case. I was also hoping to get something with a belt clip.
The only case I found locally in stock for my Note 2 was at the AT&T store and it was a white/grey CaseMate with a built in kickstand I think it cost $38 and did not come with a screen protector. Wish Otterbox made a Commuter style with built in kickstand for the Note 2.
Case
I bought the Ringke SLIM Soft Feeling Premium Hard Case. It's slim. adds very little bulk while protecting at the same time and got it off of amazon for 10.99 on sale from 25.00. I added the Spigen SGP Ultra Oloephobic screen protector and it's totally protected. I love them both.......
Have this:
http://www.amazon.com/Cruzerlite-An...6902&sr=1-2&keywords=cruzerlite+galaxy+note+2
Goes really well with the Titanium Gray Note 2.
$5 Ionic Position folio-style case off of Amazon. Offers good protection, looks good, and doesn't have a magnetic closure (huge!).
I just purchased a Seidio Active-like case off of Amazon to use until the Seidio Active combo either comes down in price or shows up at Best Buy for 2/3rds of what it costs now.
I also just returned an Amzer Shellster because it was a piece of crap that broke three days in. Spending $6 to return an item that I'll get $14 back for, after spending $5 initially to have it shipped. Really thrilled about Amzer's customer service policies.

Same here. Paired it with the Spigen UC screen protector which was a PITA to install on such a large screen!

Diztronic, love it!

I bought directly from the site of the seller.
I've been a user of this case since my last phone (HTC Evo LTE). The case did me really well on that phone and it was slim on form factor. Protector was also very good on the previous phone as I've dropped it couple times with the phone in the case. No damage were shown on the case or on the phone. Because of this, I decided that I would choose the same company again if I were to change phones.
This time around, I went with the Samsung Note 2 as an upgrade to my previous phone. The case wasn't announced when I got the phone, but soon after they decided to make the case. I bought it the second day it was announced through the owners site. Case arrived quickly and the quality is still superb. If you check this listing, there's a few photos that I posted which represented the case. When you lay the case flat with the phone inserted, it's basically the same thickness as the Evo LTE with the phone in a diztronic case. Adds very very minimal bulk which doesn't affect the usability.
The back of the case is a matte finish. This matte finish actually allows the user to grip the phone better. That's not just it, the finish also reduces all fingerprints and dust particles.
Phone cutouts are all perfect and aligned to the spot. Power button and volume buttons use a soft silicon touch. It's covered, but in no way does it affect the touch. I can still easily press those buttons and the phone would respond to my action.
Overall, great case! Price is right! Go for it!
Im pretty pleased with mine too even though I normally dont use tpu protectors. It has a really nice feel and the sides seem like they provide substantial protection. No real complaints from me. I know diztronic has a great reputation and this was my first case from them so im happy.

Im on the same boat!! I detest silicone and TPU cases as they are flimsy and stretchy, causing plenty of dusts to get trapped inside and scratch the device. But when I saw this case on Diztronic site I was very amazed so I ordered one. It arrived fairly fast despite the holiday seasons for US to Australia. Been using for 2 days and have to say, the best TPU case I've ever seen. The texture is very very nice, matte and really nice to touch and hold, raised lips to protect the screen, cover all the buttons (my favourite features), compact and thin enough but still have a decent protection from it. I'm very happy with this case, by far the best case I've got for Note 2 yet.
The only thing they should improve is to stick with matte texture all the way rather than having the raised lips/edges in glossy texture. And the seams could use some clean up.
Perhaps. I kinda like the edges with the smooth finish. Feels good when I need to stretch fingers across the whole phone.
One other plus I noticed is it seems to not get stretched easy. As I said this is my first Diztronic case so I'm sure others already know, but I've taken it on and off about 5 times and it still fits tight.

I think it's pretty firm on my end. I don't seem to loose control of it when it's in my hand.
I just want to pipe in and say I really like the Diztronic tpu case on my note 2. I used their cases on my Galaxy Nexus and was very happy. They add very little weight and size to the phone, yet I feel like my phone has pretty decent protection. My Galaxy Nexus still looks brand new, even though I dropped it a few times. I've dropped my note 2 one time and it still looks perfect.

Can't wait to get mine. I been thru quite a few cases hope this is the last one, it seems to fit all the criteria.
Diztronic is my preferred case-maker. Good quality, decent prices, great fit and feel. Can't ask for more than that.
Quick question on people who has it, I checked out the bodyglove case from sprint, and while it fits nice the sides were flimsy, does the diztronic fit nice and tight on the sides?

I've tried to find reviews for the pro case that motorola is offering, but I haven't had any luck.

I haven't gotten it yet, but I've been a Diztronic fan for a few years (and a few phones) now. TPU just gives it a little extra distance between the face-down screen and the tile when I accidentally drop it.

I have the diztronic, the tudia melody (POS) and the griffin reveal. I only use a case while working. The griffin is easily my favorite, but the diztronic is very nice for a TPU case. Stay away from the tudia.
Any of those cases attract lint from pockets?
Sent from my XT1060 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Neither the diztronic or the reveal collect lint. Wouldn't know about the tudia because it was only on my phone for 3 seconds before I vowed to never use it gain.
Well, whatever the case I'm getting something. Thank God motorola screwed up and sent me two phones and I was honest and sent one back, because I dropped mine and cracked the screen.! out of courtesy motorola is replacing mine free of charge so the new one will be in a case regardless.

Yep, just got my shipping notice too!
I ended up with Cimo Motorola Moto X Back Case Flexible TPU Cover since I went with a black back. I picked it up on Amazon. I went with black, but it also comes in blue, red, clear, pink, purple, and white. The only complaint I have about it is there is no holes for the power and volume so it hides the customized buttons. Instead the buttons are part of the case. My solution was to just cut the holes. If done right you can't even tell.
I got the snap case from Motorola because I saw the review videos and it looked nice. I got it in the smoked clear color. 3 problems. 1st is price. $30 is a lot for what you are getting here. Not a whole lot of protection but enough for peace of mind. 2nd is that whatever coating they put on this thing is slippery as hell and it hasn't been mentioned in any of the reviews I've seen so far. It actually makes it uncomfortable to use one handed because you have to grip it so tightly. 3rd is that when I normally hold a phone one handed I put my pinkie under the bottom to stabilize the phone. On this case there are sharp edges where it opens up around the charging port right where I would normally put my pinkie. For something this much I would've expected little things like this to have been taken into account. It does fit the phone really well and doesn't add a whole lot of bulk which is what I was looking for.

I actually use the pro shell case from Motorola, it's been pretty good so far. Feels good in hand and the rubberized edge covers the entire edge of the phone. The phone fits nicely in the case and it doesn't add any bulk to it. I'd suggest it over the snap case that they are offering on their site.
i bought http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DMOV802/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i02?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and i love it. it has a kickstand which is the main reason for buying it. it offers easy of use. you can take it off and on easily and the rubber case isnt the sticky rubber that seems to pull your pocket out everytime you take your phone out.

It's ugly, feels bulky compared to the Diztronic TPU case, and just has a very cheap feel to it. I only ordered it because it looks like the Incipio Frequency case that I had for my iPhone (it's a blatant ripoff) but it is nowhere near the quality. If you are looking for a decent TPU case, the Diztronic is the way to go.

That's what I'm here for. Anyone who knows me here knows I have a problem with cases. I already have 5 for the Moto X, and I have a few more on order. The funny thing is, I really don't like using a case with this phone so I have no idea what drives me to keep buying them haha. I had 30+ for my iPhone, about the same for my One X, maybe 25 for my HTC One.... yeah. haha
If you want to get a really good case, help me pester Urban Armor Gear into making one for us. Best case on the market, hands down. Post on their FB wall about making a case for the Moto X. https://www.facebook.com/UrbanArmorGear
Has anyone who has gotten a case noticed a change/muffling in the rattling sound that seems to occur when the phone vibrates? I'd be interested in knowing if having a case on it somehow minimizes the sound in anyway.

I have one of these on my Verizon LG G2. The case adds just enough texture to take the slipperyness of the G2 away without being big bulky and obtrusive. You also cannot beat the price.

I am on my second phone (diff phones) and have stuck with these cases (2nd case). Just had the scariest drop over the weekend was drunk and bored flipping my phone in the air, bounced off my motorcycles gas tank and onto the concrete in the garage...
pulled off the case, not a dent/scratch on her..
mine also has a slight bend at the bottom.. but no biggy.
This is currently the case I'm using now. I started with Diztronic tpu cases on my galaxy nexus and it always did well. Was never afraid to drop my phone. Decided to go with it again on my g2 . You can't go wrong with this slim case, especially for the price.
