Yes it charges fine. I'd actually recommend that you look at the EXOSkin skins too because they wrap all the way around the phone on the sides instead of requiring separate strips. The strips leave a slight gap between the back skin and the side strips which I'd rather not have.

I already ordered the other one. I had read about the Exoskin but reviews of their company seemed a bit negative. I'll try this one out and see how it is. Thanks.

It doesn't go well with the VZW screen protectors. It pushes up the edges. On a related note, does anyone with the VZW screen protectors feel that it affects the clarity of the display? Any other screen protectors that might be better in clarity?
[G2 Accessories] jayochs:
what i did was cut two small slits in the top corners of the tpu case so that it was looser and didn't push up my protector anymore. that was so annoying bc dust would get under it. cutting those small slits is fine, and now it works well, but i'm getting the incipio feather soon, woot

and what do you mean affect the clarity? these are clear ones, not anti glare. it seems pretty much normal to me.
[G2 Accessories] texasPI:
I returned the case, too glossy as others have mentioned but good idea! As for the clarity, I dunno, the screen protectors seem to dull the display more than I'm used to. They seem to really show finger grease, maybe that's the cause?
[G2 Accessories] jayochs:
perhaps. screens nowadays don't show grease like screen prtoectors do..but obviously if you run w/o a proector you risk scratching it lol
[G2 Accessories] TrustAvidity:
I emailed Diztronic and they said they are making a Verizon version of the G2 case that's on Amazon right now. They said Tuesday they'll be posting the VZW for preorder, no date on release. I got their cases for both my S3 and S4 when I had them and loved them. Matte, thin, worked with screen protectors I used (Tech Armor), goes all the way around to cover the top and bottom and has the raised edge on the front so you can set it face down without worry. If it's priced the same as all the others it'll be cheap too! $9.90 w/Prime shipping for the non-VZW one at the moment. Here's a link to it to get an idea of what it'll be like:

Here's a pic of Verizon's shell / holster with kickstand.

Sent from my Verizon LG G2
[G2 Accessories] WPWoodJr:
The shell weighs 29 grams without the holster part and it has a nice soft touch finish. In contrast, the TPU case weighs 26 grams and the plasticity Quick Window case weighs 30 grams. The shell is a bit thicker than the others to accommodate the stand.

[G2 Accessories] chrisexv6:
Thats great news!

I bought the Ballistic case for times when I need something tough, but the Diztronics are perfect for use at home and work where the phone isnt really in jeopardy of being banged around.

IIRC they include a free screen protector too....not the BEST one in the whole world but its nice to have a backup just in case.
[G2 Accessories] WPWoodJr:
The weird thing about the soft touch shell is that although it feels great in the hand, it's actually a little bit slippery on the sides (which aren't textured) making the phone harder to hold.

Sent from my Verizon LG G2

---------- Post added at 11:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:00 PM ----------

So I just took the shell off and am back to my bare G2 with Skinomi black carbon fiber skin. I wasn't imagining things, the phone is not slipping through my hand anymore, and its lighter and thinner. Not much protection of course but the soft shell doesn't cover the corners and top/ bottom well anyway.

[G2 Accessories] beddachedda:
Anywho, loving the Incipio Feather. Would rather have it in black instead of grey, but this will work until they do a bigger release of them. Very thin case, great grip, fits snugly.
[G2 Accessories] OneStepAhead:
We at Diztronic will be opening up pre-orders this afternoon for our Verizon LG G2 Case, expexted to ship to customers next week. Our AT&T Specific model should be ready to ship to customers tomorrow, and our Sprint / T-Mo / International case has been available for a couple of weeks now.

---------- Post added at 08:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:14 AM ----------

That was something we tested with a few select models in the past. Our G2 cases will not have screen protectors included. I'll probably put up the preorder with a ship to date 10 days from today, but that would be conservative. I'm hoping we can ship them 1 week from today, Oct 1st.
[G2 Accessories] chrisexv6:
No worries about the screen protector. Love your cases anyway and looking forward to ordering one (even if I have to wait until next week to get it)

The wife just got a G2 also so Ill be ordering 2 now!

Check out XtremeGuard screen covers:

Same concept as InvisibleShield except they are $5 and look like glass when applied. No orange peel whatsoever. This is my first time trying them and I won't buy anything else. I just hope they keep the price down.
[G2 Accessories] kyler13:
Apparently there's no standard definition for "clear" when it comes to screen protectors. :D
[G2 Accessories] sreymj:
I do not use the holster, but this is my favorite case. It is durable, feels great, and not too bulky. I used the same for my RAZR HD.

[G2 Accessories] jayochs:
honestly, i LOVE my gray incipio feather! i hate that it cost 18 dollars for a piece of plastic though...like, seriously? meh, i didn't wanna wait though.

so back to screen protectors...you guys who are saying the verizon ones suck, what clear ones are you using? i refuse to use any crap that you need water to apply; i just don't do that and i hate how those look/feel, especially when they say 100% clear and "glass" bc they never are.

Emailed otterbox today about their commuter for the g2. They say it works for all versions.
[G2 Accessories] hd-renegade:
I would really like for them to come out with a Commander Series. Problem is they will never tell that they are working on it either.
[G2 Accessories] MoNsTeReNeRgY22:
Mhmm, thats interesting considering our version is thicker then the rest...

---------- Post added at 08:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:14 PM ----------

I agree, feather is a nice case that still gives the phone a slim feel while giving a nice grippy feeling on the back. Way better feeling then the shiny plastic
[G2 Accessories] rdcamero:
Otterbox is full of bs.Read their facebook page.Their replys to the same question are all over the place.I emailed them yesterday and the said they have no plans for a Verizon version of the commuter series.You can search for Otterbox defender lg g2 verizon and see pics of them on whole seller websites.Did not see pics of the commuters.

When I pre ordered the date was October 4th.. now its the 10th.. Per my confirmation email I should have it before the 10th.

[G2 Accessories] iowabowtech:
The Xtremeguard ones actually are clear. But yeah you use water to apply. It's the best protector I've ever used tho and finally for a price that's right at $5. I'm glad to hear you're liking the feather. Just bought a black one today, looking forward to getting it. I couldn't agree more with you (noticed in another post) that the vzw tpu is waaaay to bulky. That didn't last 10 minutes on mine.
[G2 Accessories] toddnbrown:
Feather

For me, the Incipio Feather feels okay on the phone, but I'm scared to death of dropping the thing with this case on it. Very little protection offered by the Incipio. Sucks I paid 25 bucks at the VZ store for a temporay case... then again, I'll probably try and return it when I get something else.
[G2 Accessories] chrisexv6:
The Ballistic shell gel for VZW version is available on Amazon. Mine is arriving today.

I ordered the Diztronic TPU (similar to the Incipio) for times when Im babying the phone like at home or in the office.
[G2 Accessories] toddnbrown:
I know I'm Mr. Picky over here, but I saw the Ballistic case and am concerned that it will be too hard to get in and out of my pocket. So I'm complaining the Incipio is too little, but the ballistic is too much lol. When you get it, report back with a pic maybe. I'd like to know just how "rubbery" the corners and what not are. I had a UAG case on my last phone (S3), and absoulutely loved that. They make cases for only the top selling phones, so I don't expect one of those, although I emailed them and requested it anyways.
[G2 Accessories] chrisexv6:
I have the Ballistic for my Gnex. You are correct in thinking they arent exactly the easiest to get in and out of pocket, but at least they can FIT in a pocket, unlike something like the Defender (my brother in law has a Bionic with a defender case....we call it a "billboard" because its so huge)

They are made of the standard matte looking rubberized silicone stuff so its "grippy". On the flip side, the corners are like 1/2" thick so it provides excellent protection while not being as bulky as a Defender.

Ive never used UAG cases, I will take a look at their product line just to see (maybe they will make a G2 case, who knows)
[G2 Accessories] SmacTalk:
Spigen reply

Still nothing from Spigen on cases, also asked about their tempered nano glass, haven't heard back yet

SEP 26, 2013 | 07:46PM PDT

Spigen SGP replied:

Dear Customer,

Thank you for your interest.

We unfortunately do not have a case to fit the Verizon Variant of the LG G2 at the moment.

Our developers are in discussion about the case but we do not have any definite plans.
[G2 Accessories] texasPI:
My first reaction was the same. I mean really, it seems like more effort was expended on designing and creating the packaging than the case itself! So at full retail ($24.99) it would be hard to swallow. Even with discount of 25%, I paid about $20 with tax. Also, it is not as grippy as I'd hoped it would be but ANYTHING is an improvement to the naked backside of the LG G2. Honestly, the slippery fingerprint magnet of the back of this phone is my only gripe.
[G2 Accessories] heffzilla:
I wish we had a UAG case, just put one on my wife's s4, it's great.
[G2 Accessories] texasPI:
Agreed. I had one on my S3 and I put one on the wife's Note II.

Currently out of stock but they have an order of over 1500 coming in. Loved the Incipio Feather on my GNex.
[G2 Accessories] IamPro:
I like the feather so far but would prefer something a little more protective on the top and bottom. While I wouldn't want it to be too bulky like the Ballistic, I would prefer it somewhere in between like the Trident Aegis for the Note 2 (not bulky but protective esp on corners).
[G2 Accessories] zandroid:
I haven't bought a G2 yet, but it's most likely my next phone. So naturally I started looking for a case. Has anyone tried these cases from eBay?

Maybe the Incipio DualPro? It's not out yet, but it looks promising.

[G2 Accessories] LaDeekus:
Those perforations look like they would invite dirt and pocket lint though. Anyone else have experience with this kind of case?
[G2 Accessories] dbatech99:
Incipio DualPro looks sweet. Just hope it isn't too bulky. I hate the bulky protectors... nice protection... but don't like big thick cases.
[G2 Accessories] Bxrider117:
I ordered the grey one from eBay. It said I should receive it today but the tracking number doesn't show it was shipped. I'll post picks if it is delivered.
[G2 Accessories] invalidlogic:
Is the Incipio a hard shell case or a rubber/TPU case?

I just got the Fosmon case and it fits alright... it overlaps the edge of the camera area slightly and buttons are off center, but it was only like $3 and will do until I can find a better hard shell one.

Ironically, the cases were arriving the same day my wife dropped her G2 and cracked the screen. :(
[G2 Accessories] big70tom:
The Ballistic arrived today. What I like is the rubber is not tacky like my trident and dual pros in past. It doesn't stick or grab lent like those. It is the MOST protective you'll ever find, just ugly. Damn ugly. A case only a comma could love UGLY. But what can I do. I want some protection, and until speck, or Body Glove makes there one piece case, this is all I got.
[G2 Accessories] gregish:
That dualpro case looks really nice in white and gray.

Might pick up that over the feather just because I'm too clumsy and I've already dropped this phone twice.
[G2 Accessories] toddnbrown:
Yeah, a little pricey, but the dualpro does look like it could be good.. I wonder how the buttons will function with that thing.. most cases seem to have gone the wide-open route... I see incipio has added their own button cover, can't be worse than the original.
[G2 Accessories] Silvaire:
Installed the Skinomi Carbon Fiber skin yesterday. Like another person mentioned, it's not ideal because there is a seam on the edge of the device that you can feel when you are holding it. So I'm either gonna replace it with the Exoskin version or drop the idea altogether and get a case. The carbon fiber itself isn't that grippy and while it certainly looks nice it isn't a substantial improvement over the plastic.

I'm looking for something primarily that adds extra grip to the device edges and back without adding much bulk and being able to easily slide in and out of my pocket. I'm more concerned about preventing a drop than drop protection. I had a soft touch case for my iPhone that I liked, so I'd like something similar. Anyone have any suggestions?
[G2 Accessories] chrisexv6:
I dont have one in my hands yet, but the Diztronic might be an option for you. I had one for my Gnex and liked it...not too bulky, matte finish so it wasnt a glossy fingerprint magnet.

Just got the Ballistic ShellGel for my G2 yesterday....I like that as well but its a bit bulky, more for drop protection than preventing a drop.
[G2 Accessories] Silvaire:
I'm fairly inexperienced with case choices. Does TPU feel like a hard plastic? It looks like a hard plastic to my untrained eyes, but maybe looks are deceiving. Does anyone have the Diztronic yet? As an aside, I also need whatever case I get to work with the TYLT Vu charger I ordered.

Thanks!
[G2 Accessories] chrisexv6:
Its not exactly a hard plastic feel.....it is flexible but not as flexible as a silicon case. Hard to describe.

Diztronic hasnt shipped the VZW version yet (late next week I think). I pre-ordered mine when they were available.

FWIW my thick bulky Ballistic case works with my Nokia charging plate with no issues.
[G2 Accessories] Silvaire:
Cool beans. I'll do some research on TPU and maybe I'll grab one to experiment with if its not too expensive. I assume people mention Diztronic a lot here because it's popular/solid performer.

EDIT: Now that I see that the Diztronic comes in a "Pink Glitterflex" option, it's a no brainer! (JK) Went ahead and ordered the matte black one. Thanks.
[G2 Accessories] chrisexv6:
Yeah, good quality, excellent customer service and great price. Just have to wait for it to be released at this point....it comes out cheaper than the Incipio version directly from VZW, at least.
[G2 Accessories] Vysin:
Can anyone with the Ballistic case give tell me if the IR blaster works with the case on, if all the ports are cut out well and how the covered buttons feel?

Edit: And if NFC works with the case on
[G2 Accessories] kyler13:
I would describe it as a stiffer version of silicone cases. It provides flexibility and impact protection like silicone but the stiffness of tpu allows them to make the case thinner. Silicone is too soft and loses it's elasticity when thinned.
[G2 Accessories] big70tom:
Covered buttons are A GIANT IMPROVEMENT. Will try ir shortly
[G2 Accessories] IamPro:
How much thicker does it make the phone? Like a third, half, twice the size?
[G2 Accessories] big70tom:
IR blaster works as good as it did. About a third thicker.
[G2 Accessories] big70tom:
Anyone know of any new cases on horizon?
[G2 Accessories] Napa7m:
In case anyone wants to check it out. I just picked up a glossy black silicone cover in a Verizon store today (not all stores have them).

It's over priced IMO at $20, and really shiny bling gloss black, and pretty thick. But, it does fit great, and will provide great protection. Virtually identical to a Diztronic. Cut-outs are all perfect.

They also had the Incipio Feather in gray. Those are really nice and thin, but definitely wont offer as much protection as this VZW cover or a diztronic.

[G2 Accessories] bckrupps:
i just didnt like the lip on the back of the diztronic. i got it cause it's dirt cheap and there will be way more options in a couple months. i got the verizon tpu case now and i hate it. tons on fingerprints and such but i never trust myself with a naked phone. things always seem to happen on tuesday $1.00 PBR night here lol
[G2 Accessories] IamPro:
Same here, rocking the Feather atm but don't think I can trust myself with only this case.. I have insurance incase of damage but I'd prefer to not have to deal with that if I can (esp with root status showing etc) plus a case < $100 deductible
[G2 Accessories] JJones1210:
Received a response from Incipio via Twitter that the Dual Pro case for the Verizon G2 will be available in 1-2 weeks. I cannot wait for this case. It adds the most protection with the least amount of bulk IMO. Had one on my S3 and it saved it a couple times.
[G2 Accessories] chrisexv6:
How does it compare to a Ballistic Shell Gel? Seems to be the same concept, but Ive never seen a Dual Pro in person to know if its any more or less bulky than the Ballistic.
[G2 Accessories] JJones1210:
Based on pictures I've seen of the Ballistic, and my experience with the DualPro, I'm confident in saying the DualPro will be thinner. I had several of the 2 layer cases on my S3, and could never find anything thinner than than the DualPro

Via Jonesey's G2 from hell, er, Verizon
[G2 Accessories] coolkatz321:
Good enough to convince me! I ordered it. Here's to hoping it ships ahead of time.
[G2 Accessories] harrychimp:
I know exactly what you mean. I wear dress shirts at work, and prefer to keep my phone in my shirt pocket. Otterboxes and Ballistics feel too bulky taking up the entire pocket, not to mention it looks awkward having something protruding out like a breast. Spigen and TPUs are slim but do not offer the protection similar to Otterboxes and Ballistics.

For me, Case-Mate Tough Case fit perfectly between these two options. The cases are sleek yet offer enough protection from the occasional drop. So my hopes are Case-Mate makes a case for VZW. Otherwise, I'm SOL.
[G2 Accessories] heffzilla:
The ballistic for the g2 is smaller than the models I've seen for previous phones (hd Maxx specifically). I was worried about size, but it's not that bad. I would guess the dual pro to be thinner though. Keep in mind, if you use any sidebar launchers/apps the ballistic and probably the dual pro will not be very friendly. It's almost awkward to hit the p and q keys on SwiftKey because of the lip of the case, but then again I have sausage fingers. Hope this helps
[G2 Accessories] GlassForest:
Looks like Cruzerlite has released some of their awesome case designs for the G2, but of course not for the Verizon model. :(
