Hi All,
I've been going trough some threads here regarding good covers for the G2, but I all photo's I saw with covers are with the black version of the G2.
I have the white version and here in The Netherlands we only have the standard window LG cases, so I have to order mine international. I'm looking for a cover that has still a good protection but does not make the phone much thicker or make it look like a tank.
I went trough some threads and so far I have found two brand types I'm interested in. They are the Poetic Palette Case or Body Glove Fusion, but they come not in a white version and I have no clue how they look like on a white G2.
What would be a nice fit to the white color?
Thanks!
Edit: I have the T-mobile G2 (Netherlands)

I cant believe I cant find a two piece snap on case for the M8 yet. Well let me correct that, I cant believe I can only find a pink or clear snap on case for the M8.
i.e. http://www.amazon.com/HTC-One-M8-2014-Edition/dp/B00IX2LP5Q
In the past I have always order from:
http://www.ebay.com/usr/luxuarycellwireless
For my HTC EVO 4G LTE I had this case for 2.5 years without a single problem. This was such a great case I have over 10 friends order the same style case for their phones with no issues.
I ordered one case from Amazon that was advertised as this style, but ended up being a TPU case. Just like before, I can not stand the TPU design. Think who ever thought this was a good idea and designed this style case should DIAF.
I have contacted the ebay seller, and they do not know when they are getting a M8 case in yet, they have asked their manufacture to produce, but do not have a delivery time yet.
Please help me find a black, gray case in this style.
I am not sure what you mean by "two-piece" case since this isn't a slider but I got one of those black snap cases with kickstand and hip holster at the Verizon shop for about $30.
I found the one I have on Verizon's website for about $25 simply labelled as "Shell/Holster Combo for HTC One m8". I would post links but I don't have that ability.
I also found a similar one (labelled as a Maxboost All New HTC One m8 Case) on Amazon much cheaper but it looks like the holster blocks the charging and maybe even the headphone ports.
I like the look of this case, looks very protective, but it's still so far away from coming out

i really like the poetic cases, but if you want a look like that thats out now, try UAG

By two piece case I mean one where the front "trim ring" if you will, snaps into the back part of the case, so the phone is clam-shelled into the case. The one thing this also provides is more of a lip around the screen, which not only protects the screen better, but also helps me personally when I use keyboards like Slide it or Swipe, as it keeps my palm from hitting the edge of the screen causing letters or enter key to get accidentally hit.
Here is a good example of what I am talking about for a Droid Incredible

Just wish there was grey one. But it will be black for now.
Does anyone know if the U.S. carriers, or specifically ATT / T-Mobile, sell the White Nexus 6 ? I saw the Blue Nexus, and it looks ok on the front and back, but not digging the purplish looking trim sides, which much prefer those to be aluminum color like on the White.
Or can skins like from DBrand or Slick Wraps cover those up ?
I know it doesn't really help you too much, but I work in a Corporately owned Sprint store and we do not carry the white Nexus 6.
Skins such as Slick wraps on the side can cover it up. Only U.S. Cellular sells White Nexus 6. Everybody else is Midnight Blue unless you get it from Motorola / Play Store (or eBay/Craigslist/Swappa as well)
US Celluar is the only carrier with the CW model. I don't know if you can buy it from them W/O service but you could always try to.
Also a skin can cover up the blue back, but you still have the blue frame as opposed to the silver one. SW makes frame skins to cover up most of it.
Hi guys !
So I just ordered a 2014 Moto G. Need help on deciding what case to buy.
Do any of you have opinions/experiences on/with the following cases ? I need something thats slim yet protective. These are the cases that I am able to get locally (South Africa)
Fosmon Dura-Fro
Orzly FlexiCase
Cotechs Black Fusion Bumper
Theres also the Cruzerlite Bugdroid which is slightly out of my price range, but if its highly recommended, I'll consider it.
So yeah, any opinions wrt to the cases are welcome. Thanks !
Just got my Moto G2, waiting on this one: SUPCASE [Unicorn Beetle Series], sorry, can't post links yet.
I received the Bugdroid with a G1 I had previously bought used. I didn't like it, it had cutouts for the buttons, so they were harder to actuate,
it was kind of tight and a bit stiff. I also didn't care for the graphic on the back. The 3 you mentioned all get good reviews on Amazon,
the Fosmon has the most reviews.
Bugdroid
I'm currently using a lime green Bugdroid case on my G (2014). I have a love/hate relationship with it.. I love the color & design, however whenever debris gets up under the lip of the case, the material magnifies it, so I have to take the case off several times a day to remove debris, otherwise it looks atrocious.. Also, the cutouts aren't quite big enough to effectively hit the buttons. All in all, I'd stay away from it.. Mine will be coming off when my Dbrand skin comes next Wednesday/Thursday.
Edit: just looked at the Amazon listing for the Bugdroid, you may not have the debris issue with the pure black/white versions of the case, they don't look to be transparent like the rest of the color choices.
Just got the Verizon black leather variant of the G4 yesterday. I had read that some people didn't think the Verizon leather felt as nice/soft/leathery as the tan leather offered by T-Mobile, but decided to go ahead and order the leather from V anyway. It's not terrible, but I agree it feels a bit "textured plastic" like. Is there consensus that the tan T-Mobile backs are indeed better than Verizon's black one? I guess I would prefer something that feels a little more like a leather work glove or baseball glove that softens overtime. The tan one looks like it might be more like that? Verizon's leather doesn't feel like it will do that at all, but perhaps I'm wrong. I know there are lots of different places to buy backs and I've looked at a bunch, but not sure which to try. The different color backs from LG appear like they are the same texture as the black Verizon one. Do they have the same feel or different/better? Are there differences between the different carrier phones that I need to make sure I get a back for a Verizon phone, or are they interchangeable between carriers? I'd appreciate hearing opinions on the best feeling leather option out there, and if you happen to have a link to the one you bought, even better!
Thanks in advance!
I would guess that the two different texture backs have different feel/wearing characteristics. The tan leather seems smooth, but the black (at least the Sprint variety) is bumpy/stiffer.
The black and other colors are textured and feel more stiff in comparison to the smooth brown leather for the T-Mobile version. The smooth T-Mobile brown back is more prone to damage though since it's soft. The black and other colors will hold up better to wear.

Are the backs interchangeable between carriers? Would a T-Mobile smooth brown back work on the Verizon model?

Thanks! Now to see if I can find one to try out.
Well, I guess buy a leather case from Spigen or somewhere else. DesignSkin's leather cases are not bad. I think buying a leather case is the best option. Find a leather case that really make your phone look awesome.
Hey guys,
Really quick questions that I don't believe have been answered so far on these boards.
Going to put an order in today for a Spigen Slim Armor but have 2 questions for those with the case:
1) Is it difficult to remove the phone from the case? I like to dust my phone off every once in a while.
2) I'm eyeing the shimmering white color. Does anyone know if this is a matte or glossy finish? My initial choice was gunmetal, but my worry is scratches looking like crap on the gunmetal color after some use.
3) I've seen mention of edges being too sharp. Do they make the phone uncomfortable to use for extended periods, or is this just a nitpicky thing?
Thanks in advance!
I have there Neo Hybrid (which I love) and it will take off the back cover each time I remove the case. If the Slim is build the same, I would guess that is going to be your only issue. It does fit very snug though which I like about Spigen cases.
Yeah one youtube review I saw said that the case tends to bring the back cover with it, but this was with the leather back.
As far as I know the leather back is not suppose to be compatible with the case.
I'm still on the fence about it
I m currently using the white case and its not bad at all. It doesn't have the old Glossy finish like the one for S4 did, but its good nonetheless. Its not that hard to take the phone out of the case. And also like mentioned above it does fit pretty snug.
Thanks for the response. So is the finish on the white one semi-gloss? I'm not sure how to interpret your post
I as well have the Neo Hybrid on my G4, and she's a tight fit. i like that, but, for me, getting that last corner of the trim ring on for me was a bear. i havent taken it off since, lol.

it's not a gloss finish, it's a smooth matte finish, almost pearlescent
Thanks for all the responses guys. I went ahead and ordered the shimmery white one.
To be honest I love my diztronic TPU but for some odd reason it collects lint like no tomorrow, much more than the diztronic TPU I had for my G3.
I'm guessing it's due to the complete matte finish on the edges for the G4, whereas the G3 had glossy edges that didn't "grip" my pocket lining as much. I know it's just dust, but it's super annoying to bring your phone out to check something and be greeted with abnormal dust build up
