I've been searching for so long for a Case, that is protecting my phone at the sides, bottom and at the top,
i mean a fully body protection. I don't like the flip covers.
And a screen protector that fits the whole screen, the LG logo as well. So, the whole front of the phone.
What do you guys think about PureGear Dualtek
Show me your Case and ur experience please ...
I got the LG G2 D802, not a Verizon or other version.
That's the Verizon version. I haven't seen the DualTek for the G2, but it's a pretty protective case for the iPhone.

Is that a Verizon Version ? I don't think so or ? Link
The first link you posted was for the VS980, which is the Verizon version. The second link appears to be the one for the D800,which is the international version and should fit your phone.

with the buttons on the back, is it even possible to protect the phone with Otterbox or something?

I see no problem with making a hole for the buttons. LG already made the QuickWindow case that will be available at start.
There will be a few choices for cases I'm assuming when this phone finally launches. If I end up getting the G2 I'll probably go with Spigen. I mentioned this case in the other accessory thread.
What about Verizon model vs the rest? Keys are much smaller (I'm gonna say shrinking the buttons was equally as lame as the front Verizon logo, hopefully cases will cover that up)
I haven't been able to find anything yet for this other than the Verizon store who said they could order one (Quick view window case) for $50+.

The VZW G2 is thicker than the others and does not work with all the other cases. You need a specific VZW G2 case. I purchased the Poetic case and it does not fit my VZW G2.

I wonder if non-hardshell cases will work... like TPU cases, which are my preference.
So many on eBay from China.
Why do I always get stuck with a phone that never gets any worthwhile accessories? First, the HTC Incredible which was launched and then immediately forgotten about. Then the Galaxy Nexus which suffered the same fate. Now the LG G2 on Verizon with its different dimensions. Makes me want to switch to AT&T before my 14-days is up.

Looks like it offers great protection but a little on the bulky side for me.

Thank you, I have been waiting for this to come out. Price is a little high, but I still ordered one. I will post back once I get it just to let others know that if it fits the VZW G2 or not.
Shocked a little bit that more people have not been waiting/looking for this to come out. It does cost a little bit more, but I just really feel it is worth the protection of my phone.
definitely getting one! it's about damn time!
Per the Otter Box web site under Tech Specs "NOT compatible with the LG G2 (Verizon)"
I still have mine on order, so I will see if it will work on the VZW G2 and post back if it fits.

My otterbox defender case for my T-Mobile G2 has arrived. Fully assembled and ready for anything, except a dip in the pool lol. Ill post pics when i get home from work, if anyone is interested.
My Otter Box Defender came yesterday. It does not work for the Verizon G2. The problem is with the Screen Protection on the Case. There is space in between the G2 screen and the Screen protector of the Case.
Someone else did tell me to remove the screen protector from the Defender Series Case, I did that and I am using my own screen protector and the case will work.

It is interesting to see you have the same problem I am. I would have thought the problem would have been that mine is a VZW model, but I think T mobile was supposed to be different.

Hi, I am getting the G2 for Sprint in about a week, and I was wondering if anyone has seen a case with a built in screen protector, and if so how they like it? If not, what's the best accessory you've seen?

The only two cases that I know of that have "built-in" screen protectors is either the Otterbox Defender or Ballistic SG MAXX. Both of these cases are for heavy duty protection and so they will add bulk. These are NOT slim cases.
my friend had a waterproof case for his iphone. Ill try to find the brand of that. Its not bulky too.

I was not able to find one of these that will fit the Verizon model. I like the looks of the case, at least the one that has the belt clip with it.

Otterbox Defender is available for all LG G2 variants including the Verizon model. Go onto Otterbox's website and you will see a separate link that redirects you to the Verizon variant page.
Both the SG Maxx and Otterbox come with belt clips. However, I think you can only get the SG and not the SG Maxx for the Verizon model.

Yes I have the Otter Box Defender for my G2. I am just not happy with the issues with the Defender Screen protector. I have removed the screen protector and put a new one over my screen.
On the Ballistic SG Maxx, the screen protection sucks.. The touchscreen is just UNUSABLE.
Is the Otter Box Defender have a Built-in screen protection, or is it a film to stick on the screen?
Just ordered 2 Ballistic SG Maxx cases for the wife and myself. getting tired of the bubble in the screen protector on the Otterbox Defender case.
wondering if anyone has it and whats there take on it.
I paid $68.50 total with one day shipping and will be getting it on Saturday. hopefully im not too dissapointed as i never was with ballistic.
I have their gel case on my vs980 I really like, my girlfriend has one on her HTC one as well. As far as the SG maxx goes. I know people with one for their iphones and its a pretty beefy case but they like it a lot. Let us know how it works out for you!

Post pics if you can, im also thinking about going to the SG Maxx or a Trident case(would like the Kraken just dont have it for the G2) I just dont like the gap between the actual screen and the screen protector.
will upload photos as soon as i get it but usps messed up my order. its stuck in Oklahoma for about 4 days now. its supposed to be here on the 21st. late late late. one-day shipping is bogus with usps, they are garbage deliverers. sorry just frustrated with USPS right now.
will post up pics if i ever get it.
Ballistic case have the same problem with the screen protecter on G2.
I have the case myself, and due to the floop top and buttom, it makes the screenprotectors fall off. Pretty sure otterbox should hold them down better due to not having floppy top/buttom.
But I still love my case. Fixed it with a tiny piece of tape at the top and buttom just on the edge, so the case didn't lift them up!

my case has no issue with the screen protector. make sure you have it on the right way. the soft sides go over the lip of the screen protector. i have no issues with slipping or fall outs. its in there pretty good.
I have the Verizon version and have had no issues with my Obliq screen protector so far. The case is a bit bulky, but that's to be expected when choosing one for higher levels of protection. Normally I would have gone with an Otterbox, but a Verizon version wasn't available until recently, so I went with the Ballistic and have been happy with it. The hard shell has a bit less grip to it than an Otterbox, but it isn't too bad. Also, the Verizon variant has protection for the volume/power buttons on the back, while it looks like the Verizon version of the Otterbox leaves the buttons exposed.

Ballistic is a better option than the otterbox. ballistics's screen protector is flush with the screen as otterbox is arched over leaving an air pocket. i actually find the ballistic thinner than the otterbox. and way nicer.

The Maxx case includes protection flaps that cover the charger and headphone ports kinda like Otterbox Defender cases and comes with a holster. The regular doesn't.

Ok, thanks, becasue I'm thinking of buing regular one. How do you think, this is the best protection on the market in terms of protecting phone from broke digitizer when falling? Because my g2 fell from 30 cm and now is in lg repair

The Maxx case isn't available for the Version version, only the regular Shell Gel case.. not much of a differences unless you really want port covers and a holster. The regular should do fine.

I haven't used the Ballistic case for the G2 but I had one for my Optimus G Pro. It was definitely thick and offered great protection but I never dropped that phone with the case on it before. It should hold up pretty well considering how thick those corners are. I do however have lots of experience with Otterbox cases. I've dropped phones in those cases on concrete a bunch of times and the phone always came out flawless after but they're so ugly for this phone I ended up with a Spigen Slim Armor case. I've dropped it a few times on carpeted floors and it's fine so far but no accidents on concrete yet.

Sorry, I didn't know there was a Maxx version. I have the Verizon version of the regular one without port covers. The bottom edge is a little loose due to the cutouts for the USB, speaker, and headphones, but it isn't too bad. Otherwise, it fits great.

today the screen protector is making me mad it is not responding to double tap. so in my experience a few days with the case you start running into issues with screen protector.

Do you have a Verizon G2? If so, and you have the Slim Armor case then I don't think it is compatible. The Verizon G2 has a thicker back because of the wireless charging capability. If you don't have the Verizon version then obviously this does not apply to you and you can ignore my reply.

If you bought it online via Flipkart/Snapdeal for ~ Rs600, then its a fake
I had bought one via flipkart and it had the same problem hence I returned it and bought the original via Spigen's Official Site
You won't find the original one for less than Rs1500
Return it if you can and save your 600 bucks
