I will be purchasing this phone tomorrow and I'm wondering, do any of you monitor your device's or battery's temperature. Widget, app, etc. For anyone that does, does the temperature rise significantly with a case on? I'm coming from a droid razr and I had to abandon a case because of the higher and longer lasting temperatures. At rest, battery temperature would sit at about 86 F. Under heavy use, I've hit over 124 F. Without a case, the highest I've hit is 116 F. Extremely significant when you can't remove the battery. I believe that it lead to it's premature failure. I want to avoid that with this phone.

Thanks for the pics! I didn't even know they had these at the VZW stores, may have to consider picking one up now.
[G2 Accessories] ronaldeang:
i'm really considering a wallet case...but without cutouts on the front cover you can only use the camera with the wallet part just hanging out right?
[G2 Accessories] ronald5:
Just an update: received my incipio dualpro case this weekend and it's just awesome.

Great soft feel and all around protection.

Worth the $18.

I also got supershieldz HD screen protectors (x6) for $4.99 from eBay, and I'm very happy with them.
[G2 Accessories] Lesser Version:
Just got my dualpro as well and this case is exactly what I wanted. Protection with little bulk added and back button enhancement for easier use. Very pleased and well worth $18. Good job Incipio!! :good:
[G2 Accessories] CtK4949:
How did you get it for $18??

nice thanks i got one :)
[G2 Accessories] bckrupps:
i ordered one today also. can't wait. how long did ground shipping take?
[G2 Accessories] ronald5:
Ordered it Monday, and got it Saturday.
[G2 Accessories] bsems1000:
How much bulk did this dualcase add? My last phone i purchased protection with Diztronic. Which was the slimmest profiled case i could find. And just this morning i went and bought the G2 version.

Do you have any pictures of the dualpro case on the phone? Does it interfere with your screen protector at all? DOes it cover any of the screen along the edges of the phone (due to its amazingly thing bezel)
[G2 Accessories] zandroid:
I agree this case is crap. It is what it is, an $8 dual layer. I think there is a reason the Incipio DualPro is 3 times the price.

Based on the cutouts I think it was made for the AT&T or other versions and they are selling it as a VZW case. The case does not fit well and the lip at the top and bottom of the phone bow out.

I only ordered it to have something until other cases were released. I opted for the Diztronic over the DualPro for the slimmer profile. The Diztronic fits very well.
[G2 Accessories] Lesser Version:
For great pictures posted by user "ronaldeang" look in this thread on page 20, post 196-198. My case is the same, except all black. I have the diztronic case as well and like that one too. I just needed something with a little more toughness when I am at work. I am just using the screen protectors from verizon which leave a tiny edge around the entire screen that is uncovered, however the screen itself is completely protected. Neither case interferes or causes the screen protector to peel. The diztronic case is the thinnest and nicest looking I have found. The dualpro doesn't add bulk as much as it adds weight and a solid feel. Both cases cover the device completely and thoroughly and don't leave a giant lip between the edge of the screen and case.
[G2 Accessories] sdny8:
Any reference to how rough this skin is. I ordered one. Still hasn't arrived. I'm looking for extra grip. Don't want sand paper rough, but small nubs of the weave appearance I think would be good.

I've been using this phone with two hands since I've gotten it because I'm afraid of dropping it.
[G2 Accessories] BigCTM:
Looks like Trident has the Aegis case available. I will definitely be picking this up soon.

http://www.tridentcase.com/shop-products/aegis-series/aegis-case-lg-g2.aspx
[G2 Accessories] driggity:
That doesn't look like it's Verizon specific. The cutout on the back would probably be fine but I believe the Verizon version of the G2 is a bit thicker because of the wireless charging so it might not fit right.
[G2 Accessories] WPWoodJr:
Like you say its small nubs of the weave appearance. I prefer a soft touch feel with grip. I like the Incipio Feather but still may try another skin.

Sent from my Verizon LG G2
[G2 Accessories] BigCTM:
I ordered one so time will tell. At least Trident does say it will work with the Verizon version (VS980)...I had this case with my Spectrum 2 and liked it alot.
[G2 Accessories] leocal79:
Here is what trident says on the cases.

We appreciate your interest on our products, our Aegis case fits the Verizon version but our Cyclops does not. I apologize for the inconvenience.

I paid 8 bucks with free shipping for a case pretty much just like this one from ebay.
[G2 Accessories] BigCTM:
I doubt very seriously the $8 case has the quality of the Aegis case. I have tried lots of cases (Otterbox Commuter, Otterbox Defender, Rearth, Ballistix, etc.) for different phones and the Aegis is my favorite. Very high quality and they look the same a year later as the day you bought it...You can actually buy the new Aegis case for the G2 quite a bit cheaper than the list price.
[G2 Accessories] hd-renegade:
I am not trying to knock your choice of protection, but just offering something that has worked well for me at a much less cost. I have been waiting for Otter Box to offer the Defender Series for the G2. They came out with the Defender Series case yesterday and I ordered one for my G2 last night. The cost of that is high as well. I used the Defender Series on my last phone, and it worked very well for me.

My preference is to have a case that protects my phone very well and to have a belt clip too. I have seen very few cases out there that offer a belt clip too. The case I bought from ebay for 8 dollars is comparable to the one that Verizon sells for 30 bucks.
[G2 Accessories] big70tom:
I just spine to otterbox, they said they had no cases compatible with Verizon G2
[G2 Accessories] thenewak:
Case

I got my ballistic case in and it works fine but i wish they would have tried a little harder on the bottom and the top where the rubber is not covered by any hard plastic to make it more durable feeling. overall though it will protect your case and it does not keep me from being able to use any function on my phone. Although I could not get my Xtreme screen protector to stay on because this case kept peeling the edge of it :( overall 2.5/5 or so.
[G2 Accessories] big70tom:
I have Ballistic, it's just ugly. Will someone take pics if they get trident
[G2 Accessories] bowen873:
I have a Commuter on my Verizon G2 right now. There is another thread about the Commuter I posted in - not sure why they say it's not compatible, but I haven't had any issues. I just ordered a Dual Pro too - seems like all of the reviews have been good.
[G2 Accessories] kjun14:
Thanks for the link! I may have to bite although I am pretty satisfied with my diztronic
[G2 Accessories] hd-renegade:
If he Commuter Series fits, I really cant see why the Defender will not fit too.
[G2 Accessories] leocal79:
I have been trying to get Ballistic to make this Aspira case for the Verizon Version they said they are not sure if we email them they may release it being they already released two versions of the other case.

[G2 Accessories] xdabbeb:
The incipio dualpro is a decent case, but if you get the white/gray one as I did, be careful not to allow it to come in contact with anything that isn't 100% colorfast...mine is already turning red from just being put in a pocket. Not too impressed with that aspect. I sent them an email but haven't heard back yet.
[G2 Accessories] crashN2u:
That was another reason I gave up my previous case. It was turning blue from my jeans. Well, I guess I'll have to hold off on the dual pro. Please let us know what they say. Also, if possible, ask if it can be bleached white again. Thanks.
[G2 Accessories] IamPro:
Damn, hope they will exchange it if it does change :(

Loving mine otherwise :)

(not too thick, makes the buttons better)
[G2 Accessories] The_Engine:
Got my G2 yesterday and the Diztronic case arrived the day before. Fits perfectly and feels good in the hand. Real nice case for not a lot of $$$ IMHO.
[G2 Accessories] csmith8507:
Same here. I had the feather and moved to the dual pro for drop concerns. I do like the feel of the feather slightly more, but the dual pro is a great case and doesn't add a lot of bulk. There is certainly a bigger lip on the front which I also like in case the phone happens to be face down.
[G2 Accessories] gotwillk:
but are there any cases with a cover like the quickwindow case? the only one available is still the one on from vzw? do they have exclusive rights to that patent or something?
[G2 Accessories] BigCTM:
Here is a knock off one on ebay:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/GOOSPERY-Flip-Easy-View-Cover-Hard-Case-For-LG-G2-/321220061569?var=510164049468&_trksid=p2054897.l4276
[G2 Accessories] crashN2u:
Gotta be careful with these. Some don't work. Someone here picked one up and it wouldn't work. Don't remember if it was in this thread.

Plus, in the notes of the ad, it says not for the VZW version, if that's what is being looked for.
[G2 Accessories] BigCTM:
Agreed. I have one of these that was free with the G2 I ordered from ebay and I cannot wait to get rid of it! The case that is...The phone rocks!
[G2 Accessories] gotwillk:
yea saw the pic of the back of the phone. that is def not for vz version, which is what i'm looking for.
[G2 Accessories] crashN2u:
Is there a reason you don't want the verizon one? is it because it's still slick like the phone?
[G2 Accessories] gotwillk:
i said i do want the verizon one. thats the one i'm looking for.
[G2 Accessories] big70tom:
Speck or Bodyglove PLEASE PLEASE MAKE US A CASE
[G2 Accessories] big70tom:
Please take minute out of your day and click this and send quick email requesting there case. Even if there work is not your cup of tea, Bodyglove has a track record of listening to these, and most times after they decide to jump more follow. Especially Speck, and Spigen. Please just try, for me and my 3 legged dog named Bingo.. He's adorable, but he's getting on in years and needs to believe in the idea of HOPE....

[G2 Accessories] leocal79:
Sent them an email hope they don't just make a dropsuit case
[G2 Accessories] big70tom:
I know, but right now, I'd take it
[G2 Accessories] big70tom:
Can someone tell me how Trident made a case that fits Verizon and the other variants. I see how the back works, but our phone is thicker. How?
[G2 Accessories] cc1995:
I just got the Diztronic case and I really like it. Minimal and the feel is nice and not slippery like the bare G2. I had a screen protector on my G2 that I got from Verizon. They are the dry ones that you get in the store that come in 3 packs. I've lalways had great luck with them. When I put on the Diztronic case it ended up pushing up the corners of the screen protector so I just took the screen protector off. Has anyone here ever rocked there phone without a screen protector. I know this thing should have gorilla glass but has anyone scratched their screen without a screen protector before in normal use. I'm thinking about going bare or does anyone know of a screen protector that will work with the Diztronic case?
[G2 Accessories] lattiboy:
Ditztronic

I've had the Ditztronic about 4 days now and I like it a lot:

This feels better than the super-slim TPU cases I used on my S3.

Looks nice (I have the black)

The cutouts are perfect

The grip is just

perfect

. Not too textured, but not at all slippery.

The extra "lip" around the screen gives it just enough protection to not worry about putting it face down.

Easy to install and remove.

Really, can't come up with any negatives for it. Improves the grip, doesn't add much bulk, and protects it well. For $12 with shipping, I ain't complaining.
[G2 Accessories] leocal79:
Maybe it was made to fit the verizon phone and as such it will be slightly more raised up on the other versions. I do not like how the buttons are exposed on it however.
[G2 Accessories] xdabbeb:
Finally heard back from them and their only suggestion was to try household cleaners (which I already had). Too bad. I like the look of the white/gray. They said to try for warranty next, but I don't know if it's worth the hassle.
[G2 Accessories] Reginald476:
After a couple of weeks with the Diztronic, I have to say, I am sad that I hadn't used one before, this case is AMAZING. It is perfect for me and I think most people who take reasonable care with their devices. It is more than enough protection.
[G2 Accessories] crashN2u:
That's a shame. I really wanted the gray and white. I guess all black it is....
[G2 Accessories] bckrupps:
Just got the incipio dual pro in black and everyone was right it is awesome. Make the buttons way easier to use after verizon destroyed them. Onlysmall complaint is that i love the soft touch feel but would have liked slighty more grip but i suspect the material may wear down slightly and that may happen otherwise they didnt a great job
[G2 Accessories] big70tom:
Please an someone past pics of ballistic and dual pro side by side
[G2 Accessories] farbster:
has anyone found a case with a belt clip yet? Not a holster, but a clip? obviously for vzw only
[G2 Accessories] WPWoodJr:
I haven't used a screen protector in years. Droid X, Bionic, Razr MAXX... never had an issue with the screen.

I have a case that cost me 8 bucks with shipping from ebay that works on VZW.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/221270868056?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

This is comparable to what Verizon has for 30 bucks. It works well, but I also have a Otter Box Defender on order too.
[G2 Accessories] farbster:
Otterbox website clearly says "NOT compatible with the LG G2 (Verizon)"

Is the one on ebay ok for VZW?
[G2 Accessories] heffzilla:
I was at my local Verizon store and actually saw the invoice for the commuter and defender. The guy said they will be there by the end of next week
[G2 Accessories] farbster:
Perfect news. my phone arrives wed
[G2 Accessories] 06stang:
I've had the Verizon see through dark gray rubber case on my phone for about a month. I have the Xtreme Guard full body protection under it and everything feels and looks great. Thin enough case for me
[G2 Accessories] eddie33081:
Does wireless charging work with the Dual PPRO?
[G2 Accessories] jesssiii:
I went ahead and ordered one myself. It doesn't pull up the screen protector, does it? I have the Zagg.

VZW LG G2
[G2 Accessories] hd-renegade:
I have the Screen Protector from Verizon. I bought the phone, screen protection, and I got the phone case the day before I got G2. Been using it sense 9/12 and I have not had any issues with the screen protector coming off at all.
[G2 Accessories] Ronbo19:
I have the LG wireless charging puck and yes it works with the dual pro.
[G2 Accessories] docslate:
Looking for holster

Yes, I still use one, so no more comments.

I had a Rezound, thought the Verizon holster was acceptable but the case itself offered no protection, nor dit it fit the phone with an extended battery. I paired it with a TPU case and it fit adequately with good protection. I am in a similar situation with the G2. I purchased the holster, hate the case. The Incipio feather on G2 fit into the case snugly but I am looking for something with a little more protection and panache. Any experience with this combo out there or other holster/case combos. I could always wait for Seidio but I'm not sure if the VZ option will materialize.
[G2 Accessories] IamPro:
Yup, works fine
[G2 Accessories] bb12489:
I just got a Zagg shield on my VZW G2 today. they finally got them in stock. Cost about $37 total for the front and back shield. I'll post pics for anyone interested!
[G2 Accessories] crashN2u:
Can anyone with a dualpro let me know what the headphone jack clearance is like. I would like to order this case soon.
[G2 Accessories] Darkestred:
If anyone has the dual pro. Is the plastic a flimsy plastic?
[G2 Accessories] ronald5:
The cutout for the headphone jack is pretty spacious.

---------- Post added at 01:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:03 AM ----------

No, it's matte. Soft on the touch but solid.
[G2 Accessories] big70tom:
Damn, this is the worst phone for cases I've ever owned.
[G2 Accessories] CtK4949:
And i blame it on dumbass verizon!!
[G2 Accessories] Lesser Version:
What are you looking for??? There are several great cases for this phone out. Incipio feather and dualpro( equivalent to commuter otterbox), diztronic tps, Verizon has a window case, hard holster/case combo, etc. I have two of the ones I mentioned and am having no issues with those cases.
[G2 Accessories] big70tom:
I am a case junky. But I really usually am a Seido, Bodyglove, and Speck guy. I know those are not the most popular but I always end up using one of those three the majority of the time. Right now I'm leaning to the feather but we will see
[G2 Accessories] big70tom:
Me too... Even the DNA had more options than this, and it was Verizon only. Hell I think the Sensation was Tmo only and it had cases
[G2 Accessories] CtK4949:
I had 16 cases/bumpers for my previous phone the S4!!

There is only like 6 cases to choose from for the verizon G2!!
[G2 Accessories] erasable:
Looks legit! http://www.myvoicecomm.com/cell-phone-mobile-device-accessory/212051/
[G2 Accessories] zathus:
Funny enough, I've owned the g1,my touch, og droid, gnexus and now the g2. This is the only one I've wanted a case for (the gloss kills me) and of course no one wants to make cases for it lol
[G2 Accessories] droid_<3er:
It is legit. It just took Otterbox quite some time to put it up on their website, letting it go up for sale on other wholesale websites but not their own.
[G2 Accessories] SeanRinVA:
I received my G2 Monday - even though I didn't order the bundle (car charger, screen protectors, clip-on shell w/ kickstand), that's what they sent. Anyway...just ordered the Xtreme Guard for my phone and my wife's RAZR MAXX HD. Found a 50OFF coupon code, so I got both for $8.99. Now to decide on a case...

---------- Post added at 08:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:22 AM ----------

I have loved every Seidio case I've owned. On my Nexus, I had several TPU cases for it and always went back to the Seidio.
[G2 Accessories] powerplaygraphix:
I've got the Verizon OEM Hard shell/Holster. I got it to make due until better ones started showing up because holding this thing without any kind of case is asking for hurt! I actually really like it now. I never use the holster but the case has a GREAT Kickstand that holds it vertically and horizontally and even works as a place to slide my ring finger to secure it in my hand for one handed use. It doesn't really offer any kind of drop protection but it does make it exponentially easier to hold on to. Soft-touch textured case feels really good in the hand and it doesn't add any bulk even with the Kickstand since it lays flat on the back when not in use. I would love to get a dual-layer case that had the same kind of kickstand on it. That would give me the drop protection AND the great kickstand/grip that I've become accustomed to.

If you want to try the case out, most stores will let you open the cases and put them on. If try it in the store and like it, I'd probably recommend going to Amazon to buy it because it's about $10 to $15 cheaper on Amazon.
[G2 Accessories] bngnome:
Received my Tudia case from Amazon on Monday. I typically don't like to use cases on my phones but I really like this case. Fits and looks great. I highly recommend it.
[G2 Accessories] docslate:
I use a holster, purchased the Verizon setup but am not crazy about the case. On my Rezound, I was able to pair a TPU case with the holster and the setup was fine. The Incipio feather fit great but wasn't really any more protective than the case that came with the holster. I am looking for a slim case that is more protective and will fit into the Verizon holster.
[G2 Accessories] blahRus:
Anyone use just the Verizon flip cover case? Like it?
[G2 Accessories] masri1987:
Got the incipio feather case and diztronic
[G2 Accessories] crashN2u:
I have one. I like it most of the time, but I have 4 main issues with it.

1. Have had it almost a week and the hinge seems to be loosening/stretching/fraying already on the inside edges. Nothing major, but I can already tell it's just a matter of time.

2. When I open it up, there is an outline of the window filled with dust or whatever else has touched the screen.

3. Near impossible to open one-handed. You don't have to open it to answer a call, but other than that, you will probably need two hands or have to lean the phone up against something to open it.

4. The only notification that shows up in the quick view window is texts and the number you have. I wish it would show what kind of emails I got so I know whether it's worth opening or not. I ended up setting custom ringtones/notifications to everything.

Like I said, I mostly like it. I like that fact that most of the screen is protected for the most part. I will be getting a dualpro though because I need to be able to access my phone one-handed.
[G2 Accessories] helpme364:
Got in the Incipio Dual Pro case, and I love it so far. The matte finish is nice, and the case didn't add too much bulk to the device itself. I paid 18 bucks for it, and it was well worth it.
[G2 Accessories] Vakharn:
Has anyone tried the Verizon kickstand case & holster combo's holster with the Diztronic TPU case? I have the TPU case and I need a holster for it (I hate screen protectors) and since Seidio, my usual source for good holsters, doesn't make one for this phone I figured maybe the Diztronic case will fit well with the Verizon holster. The only concern I have is that the Verizon case is somewhat thicker than the Diztronic so the fit may not be good, but those Verizon holsters tend to be rather tight anyway. Has anyone tried this, or any other thin case with the Verizon holster?
[G2 Accessories] hd-renegade:
I bought the Otter Box Defender Series even though it said it would not fit the Verizon G2. It did not really fit the Verizon G2, but a member here recommended to remove the Otter Box screen protection, and so far it works out.
[G2 Accessories] Vakharn:
This may be gorilla glass, but I've still got a very tiny scratch on it already after 3 days. It's not even on the screen portion and I can't see it unless I hold it just right, but it does scratch. I will be getting a holster of some kind. I can't stand screen protectors and I can't stand thick cases.

The holsters are nice because they provide good screen protection when you need it, and so long as you only take them off when you're using the phone you'll have an undiluted experience (nothing messing up the quality of the screen) without risking scratches. I've never dropped a phone while using it, only when carrying it in my hand or (once) slipping on ice and having it fall out of my pocket.

The other advantage of a holster is that they generally have a clip, I put the phone in my pocket and clip the clip over the outside of the pocket, thus preventing the phone from falling out and allowing me to take it out of my pocket with the holster still on it when I need to put it down. Taking the holster on and off a belt all the time is a pain in the ass, I've never used them that way.
[G2 Accessories] hd-renegade:
I understand your thinking here. I have not had any issues with screen protectors, so I do still use them. Like you I really want something with a belt clip with it, as I do not put my phone in my pocket but yet I hang it off from it. There really arent a lot of options out there for this.
