[T-Mobile LG G2x] brett_day:
just ordered the green. I have been a fan of the trident cases for a long time, the cases are top, top quality and offer amazing protection. I had a cyclops on my old MT4G and it was a beast, the Aegis does not look as bulky, but i am sure it will protect very well. I will post pics when it arrives.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ihowilde:
The green and red one looks nice. I want to get one later on.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] brett_day:
The case looks great! I ordered the green one too! Cannot wait to get it. Thanks for the over view and awesome pics.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Luthien1:
Just got the blue one, this is def the best case around.....just as good as a otterbox
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phaet2112:
FYI- Trident replied to my inquiry about the screen protector, and said that the case does not come with one- it was an error during the first few days of creating the store entry. So don't expect one with the case.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] brett_day:
Just received mine in the mail today. 3 days flat which is good going. I got the green and black and could not be happier. The rubber surround is very thick and offers a lot of protection, it will definitely protect against a serious drop.

The back of the case is a hard plastic, but it has a great rubber texture to it.

For the price you cannot go wrong. I have always used trident cases on my phones and have never been disappointed and the same goes for this case. I highly recommend it
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sellingfear:
Got mine today. I to went with the green. This is a great case I'm very pleased with it. I wish they would make one of there other series that have the screen cover but I asked on facebook an was told there is no plans on making any other series at this point

My take on Trident case

Shipping was really fast. I ordered on Monday and got it in yesterday. I got the red/black one for my G2x, and pink/black Aegis case for the Samsung Galaxy S 4g for my lady. Was really impressed with the build, the grip, and especially the tabs that cover the ports. At first I was totally happy with the size...until I put my girl's on. The design of her case was made to keep her phone both protected and without adding too much bulk to it. I admit I was jealous at first, but that all changed once my phone and case was tested. My phone got thrown about 3 feet from my really high bed, onto my really hard tiled floor. Was worried, but the case did its job. Had it not been for the design of the case, my phone would of been totaled. It really helped protecting the G2x. Overall satisfaction is at it's highest. Definitely recommend this case to anyone wanting to protect their phone without worrying too much about size. Hope this post helps :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tombaker1:
These are now on ebay for 22 or 23 depending on color....just search Aegis G2x
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iamdeemo:
Just ordered the black one from ebay. $23 shipped... not bad.

After heavy research I decided to try this brand out. I've never owned a Trident case before but as far as protection goes, this looks like the best case out for the g2x.

We shall see!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mikeb85:
Had a Cyclops for my vibrant ordered a blue one yesterday shipped out today. If the case in n e thing like my Cyclops for my vibrant I will be happy with it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmapcpro:
I just picked one up from ebay myself...ordered the blue for $21 and change with free shipping...expected delivery will be the 24-25th. I figure it will be nice to have something like this for when I'm out doing recreation, and keep my seidio for business and nightlife.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] S0NiX0928:
Got this case in the mail today. Noticed the 'backbone' plate didn't align flush where it the hard plate clips to the sides of the phone... not a huge deal though...

What I also noticed is that this case gets in the way of the FFC slightly. Kinda a bummer but liveable I suppose since this case really seems like its protecting the phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mikeb85:
Bad ass case excellent protection doesnt feel too big either...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chrisdepew:
For those that keep it in your pocket, is it bulky in your pocket? Do they make a plastic belt holster for it?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sellingfear:
It is kinda bulky but i think its worth it for the added protection. I dont think they have a belt clip for the aegis series. And the response i got on facebook about other series of cases for the g2x was. At this time there are no plans for any other series other than the aegis
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chrisdepew:
Thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] brett_day:
It does not feel bulky at all. I keep my phone in my pocket all the time with this case on and it is just fine. only bad thing is that the rubber surround like to attract dust/lint from pockets
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JonEk@t:
Just ordered the black case from Amazon for a cool $20 with free shipping. I can't wait!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JonEk@t:
Got mine today. I'm a little disappointed that the hard shell is difficult to put on and doesn't exactly fit flush with the silicone. The hole at the bottom of the shell really forces my usb cable to leverage against the socket. I love how the buttons feel, and the phone looks like it could really take a beating now. Overall, I'm pleased with my purchase.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmapcpro:
Since I am a crackflasher of a phone that also requires frequent battery pulls, I have made putting on and taking off the trident case into an art form, lol.

After I put the soft cover on, I start securing the hard overlay over the top part of the phone first...so I cover the top speaker first...then I slightly bend the bottom of the hard cover and bring it around the bottom of the phone. Then I secure the sides until they fit snug. Finally, I pull the hdmi, charger, and earphone covers out and set them back in so that they fit nicely.

Doing it this way, for me, allows the case to fit pretty much perfectly. I used to do it another way, and that really thin part that runs along the lower edge of the top speaker was getting bent, and I really felt like it wasn't going to last. If you have this case, you probably know the part I'm talking about...it's clearly the weakest part of the case, so I pay attention to it. But it's all good now. With the new way that I put the case on, I feel that this case will last me.

To take the case off, I start by raising up on the bottom lip of the hard case first, then the rest of it slips off easily.

I used to rarely use this case...but now it's become more my go-to case. I use my seidio surface case if I'm going to have a lot of things in my pockets and I need the pocket clip, or if I'm on business (the seidio just looks more elegant). I don't know what I'm going to do when my 2 Nillkin hard cases come in...got 1 in red, 1 in white. I'm gonna have to find a red cm7 theme for those red case days, lol...I'm obsessive like that. :P

Now if I were you and I just read this long ass 'dear diary' of a post about cases, I'd probably say, "cool story, brah"
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JonEk@t:
Have you had any trouble plugging the usb cable in? I'm pretty sure my case is responsible for the socket loosening up, because it was never like this before. I actually had to trim some of the plastic from top of the micro-usb end to make it fit without stressing the plug.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmapcpro:
I'm sorry you're having difficulty. But I have no trouble with my USB cable, HDMI cable, or headphones with this case. FFC is not blocked or covered at all.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Sk8trfred:
how does this compare bulk wise to the speck case?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FishyJap:
Has anyone had any heat/temperature issues with this case?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] S0NiX0928:
I'm sure the FFC mention was in reference to my earlier comment about such... Though it isn't a deal breaker like I said... Your case doesn't 'round-off' the corners of photos taken with the FFC camera?..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmapcpro:
Not at all. As soon as I read your comment about the FFC, I put the case on and started taking pictures.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlsolorio5746:
I have a black speck case and like it alot! the only problem is that it seems that it cant take a good drop :( plus every tmobile rep that has the g2x has a black case with it :eek:

how does the trident case compare to the speck case with over all bulk and accessibility, and not sure what color to get haha (red or black):cool: what do you think?!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chrisdepew:
Its bigger on the phone than speck. It will take much more abuse than a speck as well. If you are familier with otterbox's defender series, its like that. Take off a little bulk from the defender and you have a Trident. Its a great case. I love mine. I got mine in red.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C0dy:
I just ordered the red Aegis case, I should have it by Tuesday.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
Best case, hands down.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
Still using the G1 case.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlsolorio5746:
thanks for the input guys!

Im going to get it in red at amazon, found it for 20 bucks!

will give a comparison on the speck and trident case when it comes in
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jokyla:
Made the purchase and already returned it to Amazon. Just big rubberized case w/plastic color cover. What disappointed me is all port access to the phone is covered. A real annoyance just to charge the phone or use headphones.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sellingfear:
Ports being cover is the greatest thing for me. To say that its a annoyance is just sad wow you must be lazy lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlsolorio5746:
that sucks, but the pics showed that they were cover.. pay more attention next time? I ordered my yesterday!:cool:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C0dy:
Got my case today, and I gotta say I'm impressed. I love the way it feels in my hand, covers all the ports, offers good protection, and looks nice. I snapped a few pics for you guys.

Sorry for the bad quality, my Dash is my only other camera.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] whoamanwtf:
Awesome review phaet2112! Great selection of pictures and everything, this is much appreciated!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] HTXg2x:
So does it come with a screen protector? I keep reading different answers, I need to know!!!! I ordered mine from amazon on the 5th, and it is scheduled for delivery by the 16th lol.... Terrible ship time, but hopefully worth the wait.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C0dy:
It does not, it even says so on the website.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JonEk@t:
I just this second dropped my phone from 4 feet and the corner bumpers on this case are like 4 little silicon guardian angels watching over it. This is the 3rd such drop which would have totalled my G2x. Great case for $20!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
I've been using this case for about 3 weeks now, and all I can say is that I love it. I've never dropped my phone, but this case makes me that much more relieved that if I ever drop my G2x, I have nothing to worry about.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlsolorio5746:
Got the red trident case and I love it except! For the fact that the lower sides (about half of a inch bottom from the rocker on both sides) isn't flush with the thicker black silicone. Am I the only one with this problem? Or am I putting the case on wrong!?

I'm thinking about calling trident and asking for a red shell replacement

Idk feedback please!!!:eek:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] HTXg2x:
Just got mine today as well. Couldn't be happier for $20. Everything fits well, and the ports all line up perfectly. I would say that this seems like the most protective case for our phones atm.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] F0rgiven:
Sorry but I think this case is hideous...looks like it's for a child...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rvdangel630:
ordered a blue one last night. looking forward to it, my speck case looks like it got scratched up by a cat.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phaet2112:
If you mean the sides of the hard plastic case vs. the inner black silicone, yes my outer green plastic portion's two sides do not reach all the way up to the top of the black silicone, but just by about a milimeter or so. The top and bottom of the plastic which reaches over the silicone are flush. You can see it in my pics of it on the first page.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
I hope they create different designs! This case has been great so far! I took my G2X to the beach, and I didn't get sand inside my phone! I was pretty happy. :P
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rvdangel630:
got my case, and i really like it. Money well spent.:D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phaet2112:
Dropped my phone today from waist high- bounced off a brick wall and onto concrete. No damage thanks to the Aegis- it hit the corner off the wall, and landed screen side down , but there was clearly enough padding to absorb the shock, and enough distance that the screen didn't get scratched.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] btate0121:
Got mine in the mail today. Replaced my Speck Candy shell (which seems to be crumbling to dust).

one word.

Winning.

This case seems pretty nice! Otterblah can keep ignoring the G2x, this case does nicely! Let's see how it holds up after a few months. I WILL say i didn't expect the soft touch on the plastic shell... muy bueno!!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chrisdepew:
I wish they would make one that has a belt clip. I love the case otherwise. My cover for the USB tore off and so did the HDMI cover. I don't care so no problem.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Beekersguy:
Yeah, my usb cover came off by accident when I was unplugging it. At first I was pretty upset, because I LOVE my trident case. Then I realized it's a lot easier to plug and unplug without it, so no big deal.

Great case, super sturdy, and WAY better than anything I've seen from otterbox.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Hereford Dan:
Fixing port covers on Trident Aegis

I inadvertently tore my power port cover off. I fixed it with Instant Krazy Glue Gel. The repair seemed very stout, and it was as I learned a couple days later when I tore it off again! However, the initial repair was still intact. I fixed it again and it has held up without issue for over a month now.

The Trident Aegis is 5/8" at the thickest. Saying I am "pleased" with it is such an understatement. I'm an engineer and I can't believe the quality of this case. The website pictures and verbiage do not do justice to the excellent construction. All the ports are covered but accessible by integral, attached flaps. The volume and power buttons are fully covered and integrated with the contiguous case yet all are fully operable. The speaker, camera, and various sensors are accounted for with neat and precisely configured openings. Many times I am in dusty, dirty environments so I appreciate having this protection. I suspect that this cover would even provide significant water-shedding protection in the rain.

---------- Post added at 09:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:27 PM ----------

Prior to purchasing the Trident Aegis, I had a "G2X Body Glove Flex Chrome Snap-on Case". This is a decent case for someone who doesn't desire the extra protection provided by the Trident Aegis. As for me, hands down it's the Trident Aegis.

Trident has AMAZING customer service.

My case was damaged, and began to crack, and fall apart. I emailed their Customer Service, and they were prompt with their response. They offered to replace it for free, even though I didn't purchase it directly from their site.

I am extremely pleased. Well worth the price.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] moeahmad1995:
That's awesome. How did it start falling apart and cracking. Is it just by general use? Or did you drop it.

Ive had this case for around 6 months...

Great protection...dropped on concrete and hard floors at least 10x... no damage

only issue is it is very bulky...almost doubles the thickness of the phone

since my kids drop my phone often ill trade the bulk for protection...

took awhile to get the case off and on quickly but now I have the hang of it and its not much trouble
[T-Mobile LG G2x] I r Z4ck:
little thick but looks nice
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AlicetheBrit:
I *love* my Trident Aegis (Red) case - and I am a pro at taking it off and putting it back on (sigh - yes my phone randomly reboots and often needs a battery pull to fix it) but I just got the ebay 2 x 3500mAh extended battery plus back cover deal from ebay ($18) and though I am jumping with joy at the battery performance, it feels NAKED without my Trident protection!!! SO wish they made the case that would accommodate the extended back cover - I'll take protection over sleekness any day!

Alice the Brit,

in sunny but chilly today Florida

who wishes there was someone near me in Palm Beach County that was a pro at rooting G2x's because I am a newbie/rookie and too afraid to jump into those waters alone !!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mr_Maverick:
I've been looking for a new case and stumbled upon this thread. Just ordered mine off ebay. I don't mind the little extra bulk for added protection. Will report back once I receive it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kcxda78:
just got mine... very bulky...

but def solid.

Weird but i thought it was going to be a bit different.

Thought it was the type of case that separates into 2 parts and slip/click together but its more like a silicone case with a little exo-skeleton to support the back. :(

Not bad though:)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tekrhino:
+1

Agreed, got mine on Ebay for a steal.. Green

Not what I expected but WAY BETTER than the crappy Body Glove I picked up from the TMO store. I wish OtterBox had a case for this model but Aegis definitely won out for now
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mr_Maverick:
Reporting Back:

So I've been sporting my case for about two weeks now and no complaints on my part. It's an awesome case. It doesn't make your phone that much bulky. But I do feel that my phone is protected by the case.

I would recommend you guys looking for a case to give it a try. Definitely worth it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] agentdevan:
I have this case also, it's a great case but it's sooo big. It's a pain in the ass to get in and out of my jeans, because of the rubbery casing. Still very nice it protects my phone alot. Trident Aegis + Zagg Screen Protector= 8==D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] noobletsausecakebbq:
If it wasn't for aegis my g2x would be dead. Ive dropped it so many times and it doesn't have a scratch
[T-Mobile LG G2x] theNOOBuser:
Aegis plus Zagg equals THAT?! Disgusting.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] G2XPerson:
I've been using the Aegis with a Skinomi screen protector for a few weeks now and feel confident that it would survive a fall from elbow height without any blemishes.

With that said, I don't like how dust clings to it, nor how it seems to accumulate dust around the light sensor and front camera with ease. I mean, it's nothing a can of compressed air or momentary removal and wiping can't fix, but it's a bit of a nuisance.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
It could easily survive a 6 foot fall. Haha. I've done many times.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] squallz506:
i have the seidio g2x case with the holster. it provides enough protection for me without the bulk of the aegis case. plus the holster is a nice addition.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dillmanr3:
Aegis

I have been running with this case for about 3 weeks and I must say that I love it. I had a body glove and destroyed it in about a week, the only thing about the aegis case is that the charger port cover has already ripped off, not really a big deal but fyi...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
I used the case for like 5 months, without ripping any of the port covers off! haha

I did manage to crack the plastic part though, but that wasn't a problem, since trident sent me a brand new case for free. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dillmanr3:
I'm not worried about it but I got mine off Amazon so I don't think I can get them to give me a warranty.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redmonke255:
Contact their support anyways, I've heard there's great and will help even if you bought through amazon.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dillmanr3:
I'll do that, its worth a shot. Worst they can say is no.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] edekalil:
I figured I would pick one of these up for yhe extar protection ot offers.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dillmanr3:
Warranty

I heard back from Trident's customer care and they are going to send me a new case even though I got my case off Amazon, all they wanted was the receipt from Amazon to prove that I got the case new.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] edekalil:
Just put this case on my phone. I like it. It's smaller than I thought it might be. I do like using the thinner snap on rubberised mesh looking case but for protection this is it.

Hey Guys,

I did a fresh install of phiremod 6.3 and I saw on the post to use the battery calibration app after you install any new rom. So I did. but now it seems that my battery dies at 15% completely, to the point when my nook will not even power on without the charger. Can someone tell me what i did wrong?

[XPERIA X10 General] kantk20111:
A bit of a weird topic, but I got thinking today...

The X10 is my first smartphone I've ever had, before that I had a tough as nails Samsung SGH-E180, which was one of those cheap 100 dollar phones. I fell in love with the X10 after seeing my friend use one, and without even looking at the competition bought one.

And I love it to this day. Thanks to the devs at XDA, my X10 is the fastest smartphone out of all my friends (who have Desire HDs, iPhones etc) and wherever I go I get a few looks at my phone from strangers, because of it's sexiness ;).

Once I met another X10 owner on the subway and when we saw that we both had X10s, we had like this manly nod of approval. It was awesome.

Anyway, how much value do you hold your X10? How emotionally attached are you to it? I don't think I'll ever get rid of this phone, when I get a new one I'll probably pass it down to my brother, but I don't think I'd have the guts to get rid of the phone that brought me to the wonderful world of smartphones.
