Received my UAG on Friday. So far, I've been very happy with it, but I'm having a bit of an adjustment coming from my Obliq. I got the Obliq as a bit of a rush to get a case, mainly for a little bumper protection, as well as having enough screen overhang that I could lay the phone face down on the nightstand to charge.

The Obliq has a similar back on it to the original phone, what I'd refer to as a "waffle pattern". It meant a pretty decent amount of grip and didn't add a ton of bulk. I was never able to get fingerprint reading to work consistently with it, but that wasn't an option that I really cared about, so it wasn't a major loss. I very rarely lose grip on my phone or track of my phone, but with the few very minor drops I had, the Obliq did a good job of projecting the phone.

Having an adjustment period with the UAG, mainly due to the lack of grip on the phone. I'm a "dude who has dry skin" so I use hand lotion from time to time and that alone can give me a bit of a time keeping a grip on the phone in the UAG case. There are edge cutouts that are meant to help with fingerprint scanning, but I still haven't had much luck with it. Not sure if the cutouts are mean't to allow you to hold the phone in a certain manor to allow direct contact with the side rails or just meant to allow a little more pass through since the case doesn't have the usual rubberized grip along the entire edge of the phone, meaning there are thinner portion of the case along the edge rail. Not completely gone, but enough to allow the top part of the rail to be exposed. I haven't figured out if there is some claw-grip that I'm supposed to use or if there is supposed to be pass through in those spots.

I loved my previous 2 UAG cases and they held up pretty good. My S4 case lost two of the 3 silver letters on the back, as well as started to form a crack that was about 2/3s of the length of the case, but it also had a magnetic holder plate in the back and was in and out of my pocket multiple times a day. At the same time, I almost miss the feel of the Obliq. I'm going to give it a little more time to adjust, but part of me is wondering if I wouldn't be back on the Obliq if I hadn't dropped $30 on the UAG ($40 less 25% for Black Friday discount week).

Not trying to discourage anyone from the UAG, as I know there cases are solid and historically have been very solid for me. I'm sure the new case will offer the same level of protection I've had in the past. I just don't know if the slightly rubbery yet smooth feel is going to work out for me.
[LG V10 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
Does your UAG have the little scratch lines near the fake bolts on the back? Clear or Ash ?

Can you put up a couple pictures.
[LG V10 Accessories] rsbenedict:
I'm out of town, but my UAG case is waiting for me when I return. I've had two cases so far. I had the Tridea case which was considerably more bulky adding a lot of thickness to the phone. Unless I was holding the phone with two hands (one of them touching the screen), the fingerprint scanner wouldn't work. With the Obliq case, I've had no issues with the fingerprint scanner unless my finger was wet or had lotion on it (this may be your issues). If my finger is dry, it works every time on the Obliq case. I'll give my opinion on the UAG case, once I get back and can try it out.
[LG V10 Accessories] rivera02:
I have the ash case, and it does have the scratches near the screws in that back of the case. I'm assuming they'll be there on all of them.

While the uag case seems like it offers solid protection, it's not nearly as grippy as my 2 previous cases from them. On the others the sides were much more squared off, whereas they are rounded on the v10 case. Part of this I'm assuming is because of the rounded side rails, and part because the case cuts off on the sides to allow the top of the rails to show due to the fingerprint reader. Fingerprint reader works great for me with the case btw.

I do also miss the great tactile buttons that covered the volume rocker and power button on the note 4 uag case, which they obviously couldn't include here due to the fingerprint reader.

Got the Rugged case in today. All I can say is got to be the best $10 for a case with holster. I first tired the case on with the case screen protector still on just to see how I liked it before removing it . I already have the Pleson Glass on so this made it a very tight fit. Was trying to snap the 2 parts together didn't want to crack screen or anything I did get it but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Removed the protector on the case and fit was perfect everything snapped in no issue's. You are right it is just like Supcase I don't think they are making one and if they did they are to late.

This case made the phone feel small again after using the Otterbox for a few week's. Took some picture's might not be the best but might help some people out. Also have a OBLIQ case to compare to the CASEFORMERS for size.

I'm going to keep my Otterbox since I do feel like it has a little better protection on the usb/charging port and headphone jack since it locks in better, but for day to day usage the CASEFORMERS would be fine only time I would really use the Otterbox now is for when I'm working shifts Outside and going to be Rain/Wet out and a backup. Since removing the Plastic Screen protector does weaken the face frame but that is just like any other case even the Otterbox's would have that issue. Just got to be careful when removing the 2 parts not to crack it which shouldn't be a issue as long as you don't rip it off. On the Otterbox though once in awhile when you Swipe down on the screen and you finger run's to the part where the shell and the rubber back clips together on the front the Rubber does peel away like it's (unlocking from the shell) removing the rubber does annoy me but it's not a huge issue.

FPS still not working with any case on Tmobile don't think we got a update yet. I might pickup the CASEFORMERS Ultra Slim case sometime as well.

[LG V10 Accessories] smikwily:
Yeah, it has what appear to be scratches. Wasn't a major detractor for me, but I did notice them.
[LG V10 Accessories] rsbenedict:
Any pics of the "scratches" on the UAG protector?
[LG V10 Accessories] bigpapi19:
That's great I'm glad you like it! The easiest way I've found to take the case off is to start at the bottom around the usb port and it pulls apart pretty easy. You are right about the usb plug is flemsy after awhile. Overall I'll give this case a 9.5/10!
[LG V10 Accessories] ph3nom:
This is to update to my previous questions and informations

I just got my Spigen rugged armor and I can still use wireless charging using the back cover from china and cheap qi wireless charger. still getting 500-900 mA

I like this Spigen case as it over full protecting from back, side to side, buttom and top, and front.. but i haven't drop it yet.. who wants too.. right?!?! LOL
[LG V10 Accessories] Mikey1969:
OK< not sure if anyone has covered THIS about the fingerprint scanner and V10 cases.

I just got mine yesterday. It's this one. http://goo.gl/7hRNp0 I like it, it does what I need, looks good, and provides some protection. But like, pretty much every case from what I'm reading, the fingerprint scanner doesn't work. I even tried re-scanning my prints with the case on. No dice...

Except when it's plugged in

and charging( I take that back, just tested with a cable plugged into the phone, but not the wall. Still works. Seems like it might be a little slower to respond, but it still works). Then it works ever single time, no problems. WTF?
[LG V10 Accessories] RDI:
I have no problems with the Finger Print Scanner, but I have AT&T and they did an update that fixed that problem. Someone in the forum asked if anyone could figure out what was changed. No idea if they had any luck

Sent from an AT&T LG V10
[LG V10 Accessories] rsbenedict:
I've been using my UAG Ash case for about a week. I don't know anything about the "scratches" people have been talking about near the screws. The sides of the case have notches cut out of them to expose a part of the metal sides, though touching the metal is not necessary to get the finger scanner to work. I've had three cases on my T-Mobile version and all of them worked with the fingerprint scanner (the Tridea case, the Obliq, and now the UAG). I will say that the UAG adds considerable bulk to the phone of the Obliq case. The Obliq case is the slimmest so far and still carries the look of the original back. I like the look of the UAG, but I don't like the bulk. Plus, it does make wireless charging very picky. If it's not placed exactly right on the charging pad, it won't charge. The Tridea case was also quite bulky compared to the Obliq. Not sure if I'm going to stick to the UAG or go back to the Obliq. I may keep both but I'm not generally a case switcher, so I generally end up preferring one over another.

Earlier this week, someone asked me why specifically I don't like Verizon, and I just realized the best way to phrase it....

Verizon would charge its users for this patch...
[LG V10 Accessories] kms108:
I just received my rose gold verus crystal bumper case, made in korea, a PU bumper on top of a TPU case, has a perfect fit, this case is not meant to be removed when put on, it has a very tight fit, and the bumper fits into a groove which is hard to remove.

Even my glass screen protector does not touch the table if the screen is faced down, and my rear camera glass protector doesn't touch the table either.

Forgot to mention, the case also works with wireless charging.
[LG V10 Accessories] TotallyAnxious:
http://www.ghostekproducts.com/phone-cases/cloak-lg-v10-case.html I'll just leave this here. I'd recommend ebay, just ordered mine. Will compare to UAG when I get it.
[LG V10 Accessories] Apache0c:
Nice find on that. Seems like a great deal with the glass screen protector included and that is the style screen protector I was looking for with the notched top corner for the camera.

I'm looking at getting black or silver. What color did you get?

---------- Post added at 09:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:55 AM ----------

I have Amazon giftcard credits so I'm buying stuff on there. The case you're talking about is $3 more there as opposed to ebay but it's still $5 cheaper than the MSRP on the website.

So to break it down, I'm either going to get the one you mentioned: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0186GGR2Y

OR

I'm going to get these two:

Case: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016LI6AIU

TGSP: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016XU0G0Y

Any thoughts or suggestions anyone has are appreciated :)
[LG V10 Accessories] TotallyAnxious:
I got black, but I really wouldn't recommend any "hard material" only cases. The lv10 has steel side rails, it's sturdy, gel/tpu/whatever will have more impact resistance. Of course someone can argue about some super thick hard plastic case, but anyways I wouldn't get that spigen case.
[LG V10 Accessories] Apache0c:
Thanks. I handnt thought of it that way before. I was thinking about the phone getting hot and that the TPU is more of an insulator while the harder plastic would dissipate more heat.

I've had two V10's now and both of them have gotten hot.

I figure the phone is somewhat tough and I've been good about not having any major incidents with my phones other than a few short non-violent drops. Thats why I tried to choose the thinnest coolest looking cases I could find. I'm leaning towards the Ghostek because of the actual aluminum 360 degree bumper. I always thought it was kind of odd that the V10 has metal on the sides and not top and bottom. But I like the other case because it's probably easier to get on and off. Seems like such a shame to have a beautiful phone and cover it up all the time. I used my G3 forever without a case or SP and I thought it was good looking, compared to that the V10 looks like Miss Universe and makes the G3 look like the cute chubby girl at the local swimming pool.

BTW, nice choice on the Black Ghostek. I think thats the one I'll get, if I go that route.
[LG V10 Accessories] TotallyAnxious:
Drill holes in any case causing you issues, the UAG for my galaxy s3 would get hot (not really sure why) and I drilled 6 holes 3 on each side so it still looked nice and helped with the heat. Just get a ruler and pencil or something to mark out possible areas to drill while not making the case ugly or useless. I think i have a pic from a while ago of it on facebook, I'll check. Yupp, just attached it.
[LG V10 Accessories] Apache0c:
Cool, I'd like to see the pic.

I can see how the holes would look nice if you got them real smooth.

Seems like that would be easier on the hard plastic than the TPU though, since the TPU would probably just shred, tear and melt.
[LG V10 Accessories] TotallyAnxious:
just attached it to the original post. Melting holes in tpu might be easier than drilling, to be honest lol or just use a good ol' xacto blade.
[LG V10 Accessories] Apache0c:
Duh, I'm dumb. You're right, you would definitely want to use a blade of some sort on the TPU.

Nice work on the holes in your old case.
[LG V10 Accessories] KOLIOSIS:
Just place something under the case (a scrap of wood/etc)..... & use a smaller pilot drill & gradually work your way up w/progressively larger drill bits until you reach the desired diameter.

A hair dryer w/o the heat on will serve as an excellent coolant,so that you are actually drilling/cutting & not melting the case.

Try placing it in the freezer for a while before drilling the holes also,for a more rigid drilling surface.

That is,unless you have access to a drill press,vise & compressed air...............
[LG V10 Accessories] ebpman:
I just go the UAG case. love it. Here is my review https://youtu.be/lY2BSDnWCQg
[LG V10 Accessories] Apache0c:
I bought the black one on Sunday. Amazon says it's shipped but the tracking number is not found by USPS. Whats the status on yours?
[LG V10 Accessories] TotallyAnxious:
Shipped a day or 2 ago. eBay says January 4th. But free ebay shipping + holiday time. I don't have my hopes up. lol
[LG V10 Accessories] Apache0c:
I just got word that mine will be here on the 5th. The seller incorrectly posted the tracking as USPS when it is really UPS doh!

I bought the ringke fusion case. I like it because it's clear and the most amount of branding is the word "ringke" on the bottom right side of the case.
[LG V10 Accessories] YrrchSebor:
Ultra cheap but works perfectly for me!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/331703793989?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

Took a few weeks to get here, not the speediest, even for overseas, but arrived on time.
[LG V10 Accessories] Apache0c:
wow CHEAP :eek:

It actually looks kinda nice. Post pix!

At that price I'm kinda afraid of some uncertified factory using toxic chemicals in it's manufacture but I guess if you dont chew on it, how bad could it be?

I was looking at that one too but the Gostek Cloak seemed similar but better.
[LG V10 Accessories] YrrchSebor:
Hahaha, I'll let you know if I grow a tail :D It's actually pretty nice!
[LG V10 Accessories] Apache0c:
I think you just sold me on this. Those pix look great. :good:
[LG V10 Accessories] KOLIOSIS:
I just ordered the last one,I'm guessing more will be in-stock soon..........................
[LG V10 Accessories] YrrchSebor:
It's a good deal considering the price vs. the mileage I'll probably get out of it. I dont think they were even charging the 21 cents for shipping when I ordered. Hopefully they'll have more..
[LG V10 Accessories] kms108:
I had two of the same one in purple, got it for temporary protection until I get the crystal bumper case from verus, the purple one looks good if you have a white phone, I have the verus one now so it's just sitting in my companies draw,.:o

Doh! :eek:

Oh well. I have my Ghostek Cloak Case/TGSP combo coming Tuesday ;)

That should keep me happy for a while :)

There's a larger variety on Amazon now. I think I'm getting this one. I can't post the link yet but just search Amazon for this.

I really like that one, but it won't be available until November 6th. I can wait if the phone is as tough as advertised.
[LG V10 Accessories] pepperpig:
Considering this one for sure. Especially with the cheap price! I bought a Incipio red case from T-Mobile last night. After breaking 2 G2s I refuse to go a day without one. I know I paid way too much but the red was pretty I guess. I'm too new to post a link to it.
[LG V10 Accessories] StaticMoot:
AT&T has a speck mighty shell case posted. I had to do some digging to find it. I've liked speck cases in the past but can't see shelling out $55 for one right now. For that much is rather get the oem bumper or wait for the quick folio case. Also looks like puregear will be carrying a v10 case. I've had a lot of luck with the pure-gear line with my previous phones, specifically for the g2 and g3.
[LG V10 Accessories] mingkee:
Spigen will have series of cases coming.

T-Mobile store is selling Incipio.

No word from UAG and Tech21 though.
[LG V10 Accessories] comhack:
Full protection

I normally get the three layer type of cases for my devices as I like full protection with a nice holster so I ended up ordering this cheap case from ebay. It's not the prettiest case but it does offer a ton of protection and since I spent almost $500 bucks on a device, I want it fully protected. Ugly or not, it will get the job done and not bad for less than 8 bucks

I am a bit disappointed that the phone did not have Qi charging and I am trying to figure out the best way of going about that as I have never had to add the feature to a device.

That and I have it unlocked but will not be satisfied until I have root access and a vanilla android rom (I am coming from a long line of nexus devices).

I just got the Ringke Fusion today from Amazon. I like it so far, seems good quality. I'm hoping it doesn't interfere with my Nillikin glass screen protector I ordered from eBay. I really like how the Ringke case has a loop to attach a wrist lanyard. I miss having lanyards on all my old Sony/Sony Ericsson phones

Can't use fingerprint scanner with case

Has anyone noticed that the fingerprint reader won't work when you have the phone in a case? I just had this happen with a case I bought from T-Mobile. If it's out of the case, it works fine. I made sure my whole fingerprint was on the sensor, but it's not working no matter how hard i try.

If so,have you tried to de-register the fingerprint,install the case & re-scan/op check?
[LG V10 Accessories] curiousnoob:
Fingerprint scanner issue

The fingerprint scanner works when your hand contacts the metal side rails of the phone. Have confirmed by trying to use power button/ finger print scanner without touching side rails and it doesn't work.
[LG V10 Accessories] 98classic:
This is right. I pushed out the sides of my case at the bottom just enough to make contact with the rails and the fp scanner worked.
[LG V10 Accessories] curiousnoob:
Fingerprint scanner issue

Hopefully someone can manufacture a case that has some conductivity with the phone. I feel the need to get a cheap case in the meantime, even if it ruins fingerprint functionality. (Even though this phone doesn't "need" a case, I work in an automotive shop so it does need a case lol)
[LG V10 Accessories] YrrchSebor:
That'll offer lotsa protection, it looks like..
[LG V10 Accessories] Apache0c:
Yeah, I'm pretty excited to see how it looks in my hand. Was hoping to have it here today but I guess I'll have to make it through NYE till it gets here on Tuesday :good:
[LG V10 Accessories] kms108:
This is the verus one I have, photo is not mine, but it's the same color in rose gold, very similar the ghostek, the bumper is PU, not aluminum, along with 100% coverage glass protector on the main screen and a glass protector for the rear camera lens.
[LG V10 Accessories] Apache0c:
I've come to decide that putting anything over the camera is a bad idea. These TGSP's scratch easier than the gorilla glass and make your photos blurry.
[LG V10 Accessories] KOLIOSIS:
That's a nicer case anyway,probably thinner/better feel-in-hand vs the other one. :good:

Now I don't fell so bad,snatching up the last one,THX for helping to clear my conscience......................... ;)

How about clicking the thanks button. You get 8/day ;)
[LG V10 Accessories] TotallyAnxious:
Mine came today. It is more difficult to put on than expected. So if you're one of those battery replacers, you might get annoyed. I think side by side it would provide better drop protection compared to the UAG, based on assumptions and my materials knowledge. I think it feels nice in the hand, results may vary on that. I have the intelliglass screen protector and the edges of the case are a milimeter or less away, so those with the spigen glass may get lifting. total finger print magnet on the tpu gel. Slightly heavier than the UAG, but I think it'll be my daily case for a while. In the end I'd rather have the best drop protection and the main downside is the fingerprints, it's not as grippy but it's not slippery. I'm not fixing the grammar or spelling, tired from work.
[LG V10 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
Please put up some "Real" pictures of the Ghosttek.
[LG V10 Accessories] TotallyAnxious:
Not really able to, don't have a camera besides my phone. Gonna have to wait till someone else gets it.
[LG V10 Accessories] Apache0c:
Interesting! Thanks for the quick feedback and, congrats on getting it. Mine should be here Tuesday according to UPS tracking. Hadnt thought of changing batteries, that will be my biggest problem with it as I have 3 batteries which is nice to pop in and out. On the flip side, since it does mount to the phone so securely, I'm guessing it will provide good drop protection.

No worries, I'll use my tablet to take pictures of it sometime next week :good:
