EDIT: here are some that LG is releasing that look promising (one is just a back plate) and they have qi charging capabilities.

[G3 Accessories] lunarken:
some of the cases u all link here have a hole on top. is for korean ver
[G3 Accessories] liamR:
Yes. It's for the Korean version it's a cut for the antenna, I emailed some of them and they wrote me back that they aren't going to make cases without the antenna hole.
[G3 Accessories] 30Seconds:
I ordered the Fosmon TPU case. I've had good luck with these on other phones and they are very thin and do not change the look of the device:

[G3 Accessories] dadsterflip:
I am fixing to order reagkle or something I can't remember lol. Its a clear case. I starting liking those see thru cases when I got my s4.
[G3 Accessories] liamR:
I think I'll go for the Spigen Ultra fit with their tempered glass bundle. I hope that it fits the International G3 (D855).
[G3 Accessories] ziggazee:
Yea I'm getting a ringke case as well. They are the slimmest cases available for the g3 and cover the whole phone.. Going for the black one as I bought a gold g3 so it should look good with a black case.

Spigen SlimArmor

And I ordered this as well:

Verus Aluminum Metal Frame

http://www.amazon.com/Verus-Aluminu...F8&qid=1403312319&sr=8-6&keywords=lg+g3+verus

A bit bulky but it offers good protection. Been using Spigen all the time even my S4.
[G3 Accessories] 2dorr:
For the Korean version, this is the best. It brings wireless charging and it protects the phone.

I was thinking about that. Did you buy one? There must be an easier way too get qi charging.
[G3 Accessories] stas333:
do you have any pictures?
[G3 Accessories] zen123:
I tried the Spigen Ultra fit - not bad but leaves both the top & bottom of the device exposed, keeping it as a spare. Didn't bother with Spigen Slim Armour as experience tells me its not really that slim at all, nice cases though.

The one I'm using at the moment is http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00HS5LRC0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Fits perfectly, protects the whole phone, all the cut outs align perfectly and keeps the phone slim. Only complaint I have is that there is a cutout for an aerial which my EU G3 version does not have. If they ever make an international specific version of the case I will be buying one.
[G3 Accessories] huskerkate:
i'm using the Ringke Slim case, as well. it is definitely very slim, and certainly keeps with the G3's original form factor. I agree with you, too, that the antenna cut out is a little irritating for the US variants. but, i've always been a big Ringke fan.

I also have the Spigen Slim Armor. while it isn't nearly as slim as the Ringke, i would not in any way characterize it as "bulky". and, it feels like it offers a lot more protection than the Ringke. if i'm just at the office or home, i use the Ringke. But, if i'm going to be travelling or active, i put the Spigen on to give me more peace of mind/protection.

the Incipio Feather mentioned above appears to be a nice compromise between Spigen and Ringke - i might grab one of those, too.

[G3 Accessories] huhmuhnuh:
The Feather also does not have the antenna cutout while the Ultra Fit does.

I just got the Tudia Ultra Slim which I am liking a lot. Feels very good in the hand.. soft matte feel. The top and bottom are more of a shiny plastic. I guess it's for protection but I wish the whole case was just made of the soft matte material.

Very slim for a case of this sort.

It is also the case in this drop test video. (SPOILER: it does very well)

[G3 Accessories] The Elite:
I've been looking at a variety of slim cases for awhile now, and finally chose to order one. I ordered the Ghostek Stealth case for my G3. It doesn't cover the top and bottom, but it does have 0.5mm beleveled edges on all sides (screen side, top side and bottom side). Since the edges are 0.5mm it should be compatible with most tempered glass screen protectors (they are usually 0.2 to 0.4mm thick). The case looks very sleek and seems to look thinner than the Incipio Feather and the Spigen Ultra Fit (comparing by looking at the depth of the back buttons with the case installed). By looking at the photos provided, the case looks really nice and sleek, with an exceptional matte finish. Comes in a variety nice colours as well. To top it all off, it's available at an amazing price (7.95 on Amazon and 7.98 on eBay). I ordered the black one.

amazon.com/Ghostek-Stealth-White-Screen-Protector/dp/B00KVIISUU

Personally, I've never liked clear cases, as they looked cheap and you can really make out the plastic, which in my opinion makes the device seem cheap..Other cases I've thought about, were the Spigen Ultra Fit, however the cutout at the top, with no functionality for my version, really bugged me. I also thought about the Rinke Slim, which also had the cutout at the top. I almost went for the Caseology ones, but I noticed they attracted fingerprints a lot and had this glitter, that I disliked about them. The Insignia soft shell case which BestBuy carries, was another option, but looking at the photo, the Speaker cutout seemed bigger then needed to be and off centered. The Supcase and the TUDIA, looked a bit thick to my eyes, just by looking at the picture.

However, with all this, this one did catch my eye on eBay, and it's under $2 with free shipping (sometimes I wonder how these people even make money, like the shipping cost should be close to that price). Similar to the Ghostek Stealth and Ringke, but with no branding. But I just went with the Ghostek in the end.

When I get the case, I'll probably give an update on what I think about it.
[G3 Accessories] icoman:
Best case I have used so far is the bug droid.

Minimal bulk, decent grip, decent protection, very slim, no square or jagged corners and sides.
[G3 Accessories] fullyflaredfred:
Just got the Incipio feather in black. I now own the spigen ultra fit, the Ringke slim, and the Incipio feather. Out of all three slim cases, I am really liking the Incipio feather the most. It has a great soft touch feel to it and fits very snug. It also has the most corner protection out of all three and has a good lip for face down screen protection. The best part a out this case is that it does not have the cutout for the Korean antenna. I read somewhere that the spigen ultra fit black version also has this same type of coating but since I have the mint version I cannot tell u which coating feels better.
[G3 Accessories] liamR:
I have the Ultra Fit and I'm looking for replacement (because of the smudge magnet material of the back). The Incipio is a bit pricey. Do you have them both ? How is the Incipio in terms of smudge ? Does it have the korean G3 antenna cut ?

Thanks

Edit: got the antenna question answered.

How about the smudge ? Is it smudge magnet like the Ultra Fit ?
[G3 Accessories] fullyflaredfred:
Unfortunately I think they are made of the same material. Have u considered the white or mint spigen ultra fit? Those have the matte smudge free material I think u are looking for. The Ringke slim is also made of matte smudge free material.
[G3 Accessories] huhmuhnuh:
if smudges are a concern, I would not recommend the feather. it might be a little worse than the ultra fit.
[G3 Accessories] Jagdish84:
I was wondering how come no one mentioned Casemate cases...Always had a good experience with it so i just ordered it off Ebay...
[G3 Accessories] 20degrees:
What case? The tough case it's ugly. It's like their design team just cuts out squares for the ports now.

[G3 Accessories] SCWells72:
I received the Incipio Feather case today and REALLY like it! It adds very little additional bulk, though it does add a little extra weight. Obviously no case of any value is going to be able to avoid that, though. It also looks nice. This one's a keeper for me!

LG G3 OEM Slim Guard

Hi Guys,

I know some of you wanted to get the LG G3 OEM Back Cover Slim Guard case... And had a hard time finding it ( for the D8**), because you find a lot of them on eBay that is made for the Korean version (antenna hole and wrong wireless charging specs). But at the end of the post, i put a link where you can find them for the none Korean versions of the G3.

I have to admit it fits pretty well on the G3 as a replacement cover, but kind of surprised that it is still not very "grippy". it's better than the original one, but still not what i hoped for (good back grip). Although i admit it feels very solide and not made to be a short term case... but very sturdy.

Here is the link i got mine from :

https://www.digitec.ch/en/s1/product/lg-g3-slim-guard-black-polycarbonate-mobile-phone-case-2584309

EDIT : I just checked, unfortunately, they only deliver in Switzerland.
[G3 Accessories] Trinergy:
Which is bulky? I ordered both and although the Spigen Slim Armor is nice I prefer the Verus Iron Shield. The back of the case is thinner than the top and bottom which allows you to have the protection where its needed most while keeping the bulk down on their place where you hold the phone the most. It's also adds a little clean style with the metal frame. It really makes the case feel integrated with the phone and I never had a case do that before. Hands down best case I ever owned on any phone. I returned the spigen slim armour as it does feel like two pieces and the iron shield just feels like a part of the phone.
[G3 Accessories] The Elite:
The Ghostek Stealth case arrived on Friday, but I was busy, so I couldn't update. Shipping was fast and great. Came with a screen protector too, that seemed pretty decent, but I didn't use the screen protector, because my tempered glass one will be arriving shortly. The case is really, really slim, and the cutouts are really well done, so there isn't a bunch of excess space, especially around the back speaker, like many others I have seen. I am quite pleased with this case, especially the lip at the front that prevents the screen touching the ground if the phone is placed face down. I think that even with a glass protector, there still would be a good enough lip to prevent even the protector from touching the ground if placed face down. I'm loving this case so far, no regrets, as I hate bulk on my phone, but this case feels like it adds nothing, just better grip and extra protection. Would definitely recommend it especially for around $7!!!

[G3 Accessories] sweets55:
Slap a unicorn sticker on the hot pink and rock that. lmao I really like the looks of my Nillkin just adds a tad more bulk that I like. I like my Insignia but not sure why I got since it's all black and I'm tired of that. The "perfect case" hunt continues. lol

I just received the case today. It looks just like it does on the web. I got the black one.

So far in my half day of using it, I think i'm finding it difficult to hold the phone because the sides are thin (Guess I'm use to the square of the nexus 4 for the past 2 years.

As of right now not 100% sold on it.

What I don't like about the Spigen Slim Armor case is that the plastic back is a bit slippery for me and its a bit too loose that it comes right off with not much effort.

[G3 Accessories] Amo_rphis:
Its the greyish one,the seller have clear also;it nice on the titanium color of the phone,maybe clear one fit better on white and gold.The dots are like microscopic "balls" and keep a small distance between case and phone,enough to dont get that water effect.Coutouts are not perfect,but decent enough,you can see in pics posted,also no antenna cut.

[G3 Accessories] xraytedjim:
I can speak to the Caseology and the Ringke. The caseology feels great, but is a little bulkier than i thought. The white looks great with the white phone. The grip is very nice and my favorite part.

The Ringke looks really nice and clean, but it's a little slicker, but the worst part of it is that it attracts greasy fingerprints. It gets dirty fast and looks nasty.

Just my .02
[G3 Accessories] Richieboy67:
That is a bummer because I have one arriving tomorrow.

I will probably end up going with an otter box. I like the thinness of the g3 but I really want to protect it.

I loved the ACase for my Nexus 4 but they don't have one yet for the g3.. Bummer.

I have the Verus Aluminium Metal Frame case and the the frame is no longer a snug fit to the rubber case. The sides are slightly bend and bulging out - all due to regular use and not due to me dropping it. I'll be going back to my Spigen case now.

Does anyone know of a case that replaces the back cover but also provides bumper type protection too?

So temping... then I watched one of the LG G3 screen replacement videos and did not want to go through that process. But still very nice and slim, if only the lip raised a little more.
[G3 Accessories] MalekoUK:
I think the lip is just enough, don't like large protruding edges.

Also, over all the phones I have owned I have never scratched the screen, and I don't use screen protectors either, think they're a waste of time.

The main thing for me is protecting the edge of the phone, dropped my old phones enough times and the screens were never damaged, but always dented the plastic housing! doh!

But hey, each to their own :)
[G3 Accessories] Fentadroid:
Really nice but also really expensive :(

Very fond of the Diztronic Matte Back Ultra TPU Case. Adds just enough protection but still keeps the phone (as the OP asked) close to the original ergonomics. Very easy to grip too; won't slip from your hands like the naked phone

[G3 Accessories] erickcgm:
Haha, similar here. I have the Spigen Slim Armor and find it too chunky and slippery. So I ordered the official Slim Hard case. Didn't go for the Slim Guard because: 1) It's much more expensive, 2) I have a dbrand skin on the back so I can't take the cover off, 3) The material of the Slim Hard seems much nicer than the Slim Guard.

Will post my thoughts here once I get it. :)

I really like it as it completely preserves the phone's slim look but protects it from pocket scratches. After using this case I can see that even the Fosmon TPU case I was using previously (http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00KNYOYAA/ref=oh_details_o07_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) ruins the slim look of the phone.

As long as you are not looking for drop protection these are great cases and cheap.
