Otterbox Commuter vs Ballistic SG

Waiting for my Sprint LG G2 to ship, I've been comparing cases. Looking for something thats not too bulky, provides good drop protection, and is grippy. And I keep coming back to two cases, the Otterbox Commuter and the Ballistic SG. Here is a to-scale comparison I threw together (as size accurate as I could manage):

}
Based on the available images and not actually handling them myself:
The two cases seem to be about the same size at their widest and tallest. Though the Ballistic is a bit thinner around the center grip area. (Note: Ballistic's stock image seems to be based on an iPhone, so I could be off on the size comparison)
The buttons on the Otterbox are definitely wider, but more pronounced on the Ballistic, so it's hard to tell which might be easier to use.
They both retail for about $35, though I've seen the Ballistic with more availability and cheaper reseller prices.
The Otterbox appears to have port covers on the bottom for the USB port and headphone jack.
Both companies offer a 1 Year Warranty
I'm actually tempted to buy both when I get my phone so I can compare and return the one I don't like for a refund.
I'd like to find out which case grips better in the hand and holds on to the phone more tightly.
Anyone with either case, please chime in with your opinions. Thanks!
EDIT: Ballistic got back to me with the exact dimensions on the Ballistic SG:
SG – SG1227 – LG G2
Width – 78.92mm (3.11in)
Height – 145.58mm (5.73in)
Thickness – 17.03mm (0.67in)

I'm not a fan of the silicone that's use on the ballistics case.

Can I ask why? Durability? Feel, grip?

It feels cheap and real rubbery and lint sticks to it like you wouldn't believe, it also sticks inside your pockets.

Ballistic looks better imo....

I do like how the ballistic covers all four edges of the screen
Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk

I have the ballistics case for vz. Pros, makes the back buttons easier to find with a finger. Phone feels very safe. Its got a nice look to it. Cons, it's pretty big. With the small bezel of the g2, touching the sides of the screen can be a pain. And ya, lint sticks to the silicone parts as well as harder to slide in a pocket.
Over all I'm happy with it but if I can get a thinner profile one that covers the back buttons, I'll prob get that

I too am using the ballistics case for the rugged good looks. aesthetically the only other case i would consider is the LG G2 Slimpack.
The only issues I have with the ballistic is the easily attracted lint and the mickey mouse looking 'ears', but the benefit is that the

So it seems the Ballistic gets a lot of complaints about being too "sticky" in the pocket and attracting lint. Haven't seen any complaints like that about the Otterbox.

I have the ballistic case and it works really well. It doesn't cover the corners of-the screen. The only thing I wish it had was a built-in screen protector. I have no issue with the "stickiness. " All in all I am really pleased with the case.

I hate the case that have a hole in a back of the cover bc all the dirt will stick in the hole I prefer Otterbox better than anything

It's for the extra noise canceling microphone that one of the models have (the sprint one if I remeber correctly)
cover it with some hot glue if you don't have the G2 with the extra microphone

I'm getting for the Ballistic SG Maxx case and holster. I wont have to worry about lint and it has port covers.:good:

Not a bad looking case. It does not say it will fit the Verizon G2. I have a Otter Box Defender Series on order. They also claim not compatible with the Verizon G2 too, but I am going to take a chance that it will work ok.

I almost wonder if the big issue why they say it will not work with the Verizon Phone is because of the wireless charging?? I will see how the Otter Box Defender Series fits when it comes next week.

I have the Otterbox commuter and I can comfirm that the rubber is not sticky. I was also looking at the ballistic happy i didnt go with it now.My only gripe is the otterbox hard shell is a too little slick for one handed operation imo

I got the ballistic... Dropped my phone 3 times in one day for some odd reason (I MAYBE have dropped a phone twice before this one... EVER) and no issues.
Its my heavy duty case for sure. It does add ALOT of bulk to the phone in terms of size and weight. But its worth it to me. Those drops were all waist height and I'm 6'2"

Incipio Dualpro Verizon version

Hey All,
Anybody get the dualpro case yet?
http://www.incipio.com/cases/smartp...s-verizon/dualpro-case-for-lg-g2-verizon.html
Looks pretty legit and price isn't bad. Was wondering if anyone has it and cares to comment, like it or hate it. Tried searching the thread but its not working, did a little digging but figured screw it, I'd post on here. Sorry if someone has already asked or reviewed it!

Its the best. I posted a bunch of pics on Android Central. The black/black in my opinion. It has a very matte tacky feeling that repels finger prints. Very good protection with minimal footprint. Better than Otter box Commuter I had on GNex which I loved.
Edit: pics I posted are here, page 9 http://forums.androidcentral.com/verizon-lg-g2/316095-cases-verizon-g2-9.html

I bought the case and really like it. If I had to find something wrong with it I would say that the rubber can be a lint magnet but it feels good to hold.
I also bought the "iGadgitz Black Leather Pouch Case Cover for Samsung Galaxy Note 2 II N7100 Android Smartphone Tablet" to protect the screen. After using it for a few days it has loosened up enough to slide in and out with ease. Adds a bit of total protection for the phone.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A25T6XU/ref=oh_details_o04_s01_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I've had mine for a week, and apart from picking up any lint like a magnet, which is true for all cases with silicone I've seen, it's fantastic.

Thanks guys, ordered! Went with the white/gray, I'll get a pic up when it comes in!

I like it a lot.
But no case will defeat a face plant on a loose stone driveway, right?
Hold on tight!

I have owned the white/gray one for a little over a week. It is already starting to discolor at the corners and on the back. Pretty sad about that but still a great case. The two part design is great and it adds very little bulk to the phone. The Verizon version back is very slippery so i was happy to add a case that had a tacky feel to it.

I think that would be me, and it's only gotten worse. Too bad, because the white looked good at first.

Case with Verizon holster?
Does anybody know if this case will fit into a Verizon OEM holster? I know the feather did and felt appropriately snug, but didn't know if this would be too tight.

I got mine last Saturday. I picked up the white/gray one even though I heard it discolored easily, it really does pick up colors easily. If you don't clean it right away, it will be harder to clean later. I think I'm going to try and scotch guard it. My one beef is the headphone jack hole, Depending on the plug being plugged in, it sometimes doesn't seat all the way, or stay seated, I may try to open it up larger.

I have the black and the cyan version. Only problem with the cyan is when it gets dirty it will show. Just like with any colored case.

So, today is day 4 and the case has finally picked up some stains that aren't coming out. I should have had some scotch guard ready....

Wireless Charging
Can anyone tell me if the wireless charging will work with this case on the phone?

I had a Otterbox Commuter for my GNex also, which I hated how slippery the outer hard shell part was. Is this one similar or does it have a layer of "soft touch" paint for grip? I read in the second post that he thought it was tacky but wasn't sure if that was relating to the soft core or the shell... Thanks!
edit: received my dualpro and the shell does indeed have soft touch coating. It is still a little slippery, but nothing like the naked phone or my last Otterbox.

Puregear slim vs Incipio Brig

Title says it all. I want what everyone else does, maximum protection and minimal bulk. I've narrowed my choices down to these two because they're not too big and seem to offer good protection, especially around the screen which is lacking with a lot of other cases. So if anyone can weigh in, I'd appreciate it.

Just wanted to add since there's a 125 views and no comments, I'm really looking for comments on the drop protection. I liked the spigen slim armor a lot but after watching the drop test, I don't think the lip around the front bezel is big enough. So between these 2 which do you guys think feels less bulky? Also wondering if the incipio translucent color is actually translucent, kind of like the back of the puregear, I couldn't tell in any of the pictures. Finally, which one feels the best. Thanks

It's looks like you've already have all the info and your questions have already been answered more than once, just browse between the threads and you will find all the info you need

The Incipio has a decent lip and doesn't feel bulky. It feels sturdy and premium. The translucent blue isn't clear, it's just a tad see thru. And add for the other colors - the gray doesn't look that great with a black g2 - the pink I can't say as I've never seen it in person - the black is solid black and not translucent.
I feel like I'm praising the case to much. But it's such a ridiculously great feeling/looking case.
That puregear is a nice looking case, but I bet the back of it will scratch a lot over time.

It reminds me of the ringke fusion for nexus 4. I hate that case. One of my most regretted cases ever. Lol
LG G2

the back of the pure-gear case has a couple risers so the the back doesnt get scratched as much. As for protection go with the Brig since its TPU it will have better shock protection. T-Mobiles website has the brig on sale for like $9 right now too

Took credit for my $9 find in the other thread? Lol
LG G2

The Incipio case looks like a TPU case. I have the Diztronic TPU case and it is nice. But I don't think it will give great drop protection. There will be some but not great like a Otterbox or Ballistic case. The pure gear case seems to have some more side protection from the pictures, but hard to tell.
I also have the Ballistic Aspira case and love it. It's a little bulkier but feels good in hand and not huge. The paint is slick feeling though. But the rubber edge gives good grip. It doesn't attract dust like silicone cases. Plus there is extra protection in the corners, which is a huge plus for me. It is still pocketable. It is my everyday case. I use those durable screen protector like bodyguardz.... Think it is extreme something brand. The Ballistic Aspira case works well with it.... It doesn't lift up the screen protector. Unfortunately the diztronic case does lift up the edges of the screen protector.
I would recommend you check it out if you haven't gotten a case yet. Good luck in your search.

UPDATE
Just wanted to update everyone. I went to the T-mobile store to check out the Incipio Brig and it just wasn't for me; I didn't like the checkered pattern on the back at all. I'm friends with one of the sales guys there and he told me I needed to check out the Tech 21 D30 Impact Shell case they had for the G2, so I tried it, as well as every other case they had, all of the other Incipio's and the G2 window case plus a few others and I really liked the Tech 21 case. So... that's what I ended up with, it seems like it has great protection and isn't too bulky, plus the videos on the D30 material look awesome. I'll post some pics when I have a chance.
Here's a link to the case: http://www.t-mobile.com/accessories/lg-g2-d3o-impact-shell-smoke.html
Here's a link to a demo of the D30 material: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98U7rkwN3NI

I was interested in that case but couldn't do the smoke color. Clear would be sick looking though.

I've seen this case for other phones in clear but I can't even find a place online to buy it for the G2 and smoke was all they had. Clear would have been really nice, but I still think this looks good, hopefully I don't change my mind!

Anyone using just a Screen Protector or Body Skin?

It's been awhile since I used a screen protector. What do you guys recommend? Or a body skin. I suck at putting them on so hopefully maybe a T-Mobile rep can do it. lol I don't want to hide the Sexy curve in a case. :laugh:

I considered just going with the Otterbox 360 skin and no case but after putting one on for a customer at the Sprint store I work at I decided against it. The back skin for some reason has trouble sticking to the corners and sides. I decided just to go with an otterbox commuter for now.

I ordered a skinomi screen protector. That should be in soon. Won't be using a case, same as my G2

Working for Best Buy Mobile, I see how easily phones can be scratched and how much that drops their value. I sell/trade in my phone about every 3 months so it makes sense for me

The big display shows more fingerprints. Screen protectors help that. If I don't like it I'll just carry her naked. Hehe

So the screen looks fine with it on and does it feel different using the phone? I might have to see if someone at T-Mobile could put it on for me. lol I suck at that stuff. How much was it and where did you buy it from? I see Amazon has it for $5.95 + $3.99 for shipping.

I put an xtreme guard on the back; got the front and rear set for 3.99 on Amazon.
I dont like those thicker, "Zagg like" things on the screen. I am hoping for a glass screen protector for the Flex, since they are the best. Once you use one, you'll never use film type again.
Until then, I put an "Icarez" screen protector on, 99cents for a 3 pack on Amazon..

I see what ya mean with the Otter Box 360. I didn't want to hide the sexy curves so I decided to take my chances with buying it and had a Sprint rep put it on my T-Mobile Flex. lol For some reason T-Mobile stores don't have it or the flip cover case yet. I have 4 dogs so always have hair around me plus I just don't like putting screen protectors on. The rep did a good job, just have a few bubbles but will probably go away with time. I wish the top front of the screen protector was cut below the camera and earpiece so it would be a straight line across. I hate being so picky. lol The phone isn't as slippery with the protector so that was my only issue with the Flex. Well also that it's a dust/lint magnet but the protector should help with that as well. I have 14 days so will see how it holds up. I have a few cheap Amazon cases on the way but not sure if I'll even use them now.

Flex Thin Cases

What are the thinnest Flex cases? Post pictures if you can. The only issue I have with the Flex if you call it a issue is that I don't want to hide the curves. lol I want the thinnest case. Might just have to go with a full body protector.
thanks

get this one bro; super thin, great grip ridges on the side, and it fits like a glove..

You have it? I might get the clear or red one. I guess a mall has cell phone shop that will like shrink wrap a protector on any phone/tab. lol I might take a look at that today.

yeah, I have the red one..its super thin, just like you are looking for..
problem with those shrink wrapped type skins is that if you drop the phone on its edge, on concrete, they wont keep you from chipping the phone...

Post some pictures of the case on your phone if you can. I just wanted something that will make the phone not as slippery with limited bulk possible. I'm not going to say what I want to say for the fear of jinking myself. lol

I will later today, after I exchange this defective phone...but trust me, this is the slimmest, thinnest tpu type case you could imagine for this phone..

I ended up ordering that case and another one yesterday. I guess I didn't need to start another thread.
Sorry mods.

sorry I forgot to post pics; got busy restoring the phone all day yesterday..
Trust me, if you wanted a thin, unobtrusive cast, you bought the right one..what other case did you get?

This one. Only a few bucks so what the heck. A local mall has a invisible shield store and I wanted to have them install one but they said it might be a week til they get it. Might buy one online and have them put it on. I'm kind of picky and thinking they might not stay on with a curved phone as well though. I've had clear plastic cases that don't add much bulk but that's not happening with a curved phone. lol
Fosmon HYBO-SK Series Hybrid PC + TPU Kickstand Case for LG G Flex (Black)
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...N=B00HCNFVSO&linkCode=as2&tag=androheadl04-20

I had one of those on my one maxx; its OK, for a cheapo, but not as flexible as the other one you ordered..
for the price, its worth having around.
BTW, I had installed one of those skins on my flex; it was ok for a few days, then it started to come up around the round corners, so I don't know if one is good for a rounded phone like this. I am good at installing these things, but I couldn't get it perfect...

I'm still thinking about getting LG flip case. I know it's pricey but the discount helps and it provides good protection. Don't think you need a screen protctor with that case.

MPERO FLEX S Series Protective Case for LG G Flex
It's ok and doesn't add that much bulk. I don't think it fits like it should on my Flex because I have a Otter Box 360 on. I think I just want a pouch to put my Flex in when I go golfing.

Feather Shine
So I just put the Feather Shine on - it's a nice case, and looks pretty good. There's a strange thing, however: the corners on the front are shaped/recessed in such a way that when the phone is lying face down, the phone's top and bottom edges and corners are in contact with the table. I would prefer if the feather shine was what was touching the table.
I'm very curious about the Vest thing that LG has on their site. I can only find it (so far) from Korean vendors on eBay, with 3-4 week delivery times, so I haven't pulled the trigger. It seems to be minimalist protection, focusing protection exactly on the area I am concerned about: the front corners and top and bottom edges of the phone. Does anyone know someplace in the US that's selling these?
Thanks!

I have the quick window case. It's a nice design with nice patterns and such. The only thing I didn't like was that it really doesn't stand up to scratches much. It makes a nasty scuff Mark on the front of the door where it hits the back of the phone. I bought a vest from overseas last week for $20 on eBay. We'll see how that goes.

Not sure I understand the scuff mark. So the vest case overseas is the same as LG's but you save 40 bucks? Send me the link. Thanks
