Second review is for the Aluminum Metal Bumper Frame:

This is a very minimal bumper that barely adds any width and height to the phone. It fits snuggly and after I lined mine with some electric tape any possible wiggle is now gone. Out of the box the inner edges of the bumper which contact the phone are quite sharp. My first time putting it on my phone ended up nicking a corner of my back cover. The bumper is held in place by a very small clasp in one corner. I'm still not sure how durable the clasp is, but it has survived drop tests onto cardboard and carpeted floor multiple times. The feel in hand is nice. The metal is cool to the touch and is a nice matte finish so there is some grip to it. It adds a slight lip to the front to protect the screen while the back won't really be protected from a backside down fall since the bumper is virtually flush with the backside. The camera housing will actually be what is contacting a table surface if the phone is placed on its back with this bumper. It's definitely a face down type of case. The FP functions just fine though I did add some foil shims to fill in the space between the metal rails and the bumper just to increase conduction just in case. All the cutouts are perfectly lined up and I can plug in larger micro USB connectors. Larger headphone plugs may have some issues however seeing as how mine didn't fit while my smaller earbuds were fine.

I ended up having to mod it to make me feel like I could use it in the end. I sanded down the inner edges, lined the inside of it with vinyl electric tape, and added some foil. After all of this I wasn't afraid it was going to damage my phone during the install process.

Conclusion-After some modifications I really like this bumper. It feels nice in hand and seeing as how it's a minimal bumper it almost feels naked esp since it is the original phone back that I am in contact with most of time. I do wish it had more of a lip on the back side to help protect the camera module, but normally don't put my phone backside down usually so it isn't much of a deal breaker to me. I think this might be my daily driver case until my other ones I have ordered are delivered.

update (12/01/2015): I ended up going back to the Spigen Thin Fit after a few days. My grip never felt secure probably because the geometry just wasn't compatible with my small hands.

This case looks great. I just got the Obliq case, and while it is what was advertised as, I really was starting to get used to running the phone without a case (I already have a tempered glass screen protector). My only concern is the lack of protection for the camera, and so why not just go low-tech with it and get something like this for the metal outer ring?

**edit** Apparently I haven't hit my 10 post minimum, but if you go to Amazon and search for "Stick-on rubber washer", they are by Desmond and are the 10 x 25mm rings.

Obviously make sure that the hole is large enough or use a drill, etc to make it a bit larger, but still, that should offer sufficient protection if you place the phone camera-down on a desk like I do. I'm thinking about going this direction myself, along with that bumper case.
[LG V10 Accessories] bjtcars:
Got this today and the FP scanner works 100% because the right rail is exposed. A little awkward in getting used too but looks really good. When you swing the cover around to the back it covers the camera a little bit so you need to hold it open while taking a picture. Opening the cover wakes the phone and it works good. Haven't received a call with it yet so will see how that goes. without opening the cover.
[LG V10 Accessories] KOLIOSIS:
It appears this case snaps over the existing battery cover (as no NFC sticker is depicted in the pics).

Is this the case (no pun intended)?

Regardless,does the case fit well w/o the battery cover?

THX!
[LG V10 Accessories] bjtcars:
Yes it fits over the existing and fits very snug but still easy to take off. When I first put it on I just assumed (like my note 4) that you take the original back cover off and it actually works that way too but you can see some small gaps at the top and bottom. The phone is still very thin with the case on. The only negative thing I see so far is that the secondary display is always on even in the dark. The brightness doesn't dim down either so I will have to see if that affects the battery life. Answering a call works good and the sound quality is the same.

Nillkin Frosted Shield Cover Review

Just received it today and I was in love at first grip. *that's what she said :D

If you can believe it this shell is slimmer and smaller than the Spigen Thin Fit. It snaps on snuggly and fits perfectly. The finish/texture feels very similar to the duraskin found on the top and bottom bezel of the V10. The back has a nice knurled texture that is just a pleasure to hold and I feel very confident with my grip on it. The slight increase in width and thickness is almost not noticeable which is greatly appreciated by these small hands.

There is however a problem with the slimness of this shell. The top and bottom are barely covered if you can even say they are covered at all. This is great for port access, but really bad for any form of protection. There is also no lip at all for the front face so you can't lay the phone screen down. The sides don't completely cover the steel rails resulting in an exposed sliver of metal that if you can contact with your fingers will allow you to use the FPS, else it is just like any other case and you'll need to do some conduction modding. The no lip and barely there top and bottom covering are my only issues with this shell.

Conclusion-I just love how the Nillkin feels in the hand and am still debating on how much I really care about protection of my phone just so I can use this thing. If you are willing to forego on any protective lips/edges and hand feel is really a priority this is your case, else look to something more protective.

Did you remove the stock screen protector from the Defender case?

If so, is there any movement of the phone inside the case?
[LG V10 Accessories] psygnosi:
Yes I removed the stock screen protector and yes there was movement. Kinda loose which was odd.
[LG V10 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
You have tempered glass on the phone? My Defender is coming today and the first thing I do is take out the stock protector.
[LG V10 Accessories] psygnosi:
Yes I have tempered glass. You have too be very careful taking off the plastic screen protector because the adhesive is tight. The plastic frame is thin. I did not want to break.it by accident so I took my time and carefully pulled piece by piece, little by little.
[LG V10 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
Just got in the Defender and it's HUGE ! I'm going to need a trailer to haul this around in.

I thought the Note 5 Defender was big.
[LG V10 Accessories] CantGetAGoodName:
I want it but they're out of stock still
[LG V10 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
In stock as of tonight.
[LG V10 Accessories] CantGetAGoodName:
order is placed, thank your sir
[LG V10 Accessories] Double0EK:
I removed my Otterboxs' screen protector. But I didnt peel it off. I cut out just what was covering the screen. I did this to minimize moving (as you mentioned). It leaves the double sided tape on along with a part of the plastic screen protector..

Amazon had them on backorder bet UAG doesn't even have them ready
[LG V10 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
Just picked up the Speck Mightyshell for the V10 last night and it might be the best case for the V10 so far.

There are 2 things I don't like, It leaves the front of the metal sides exposed and every time you remove the case it rips the back off the phone.

I'll get some pics up later.
[LG V10 Accessories] gmplr831@comcast.net:
Just found this on Ebay, looks like manufacturers are embracing our V10:

And it looks like I am late to the party lol
[LG V10 Accessories] rivera02:
That could very well be. I wish they would've listed that on the website I would've waited until their black Friday sale to order one ?
[LG V10 Accessories] zoomzoomz601:
I emailed the seller a while back and I believe these to be fake. There is no way these can be official and include a $6 Glass protector. I normally don't care but the last fake uag note 4 Case I bought looked the same bit didn't have a volume up cutout and didn't fit the phone correctly.

[LG V10 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
A friend just got in the UAG and he says the case leaves the front of the metal sides exposed. I guess they are doing this to help the fingerprint scanner.

I've ordered one but guess it will be weeks before I see it.
[LG V10 Accessories] ph3nom:
i have the same case and in fact it is doing well and just protected my phone from dropping about 120cm height and i was trying to catch it with my right foot ended up kicking it to my cabinet.. no scratch no crack, the Nilkin protecting my phone well.. I feel the bottom side a lil bit sharp especially when i'm holding it and my finger at the bottom holding the phone so it will not slide down. Maybe because V10 a lil bit heavy this is why it pressure from the bottom felt more.
[LG V10 Accessories] TotallyAnxious:
Has anyone heard anything about cases from Tech21? I emailed them about the v10 and haven't gotten a response (they have cases for the Flex, G3, and G4). They responded within a day when I asked about the nexus 9 a while ago. Their m8 case saved my old phone dozens of times. I just messaged them on facebook to see if that would get a faster response.
[LG V10 Accessories] bigpapi19:
Hey guys just found this case a few days ago. I ordered one it'll be here in a few days.

I have a UAG case on order. They were running a sale last week for 25% off, so I decided to spring for one, as I've loved their cases on my last two phones. Ordered early in the week, but still waiting for confirmation of shipment.

I'm currently running an Obliq and very happy with it. I'm on a VZW V10 and haven't had much luck with the fingerprint scanner (works about 10% of the time), but I don't use that feature that much, so not a deal breaker for me. Great case for the price.
[LG V10 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
UAG is slow shipping when a product is on the shelf, I can only imagine how long it will take them to get out the V10 cases.

You order clear or ash?
[LG V10 Accessories] smikwily:
Ash. It said 7 days for shipping when I ordered. I just emailed them a bit ago asking for order status. Was hoping it made it out the door before the shipping notification hit and it would just randomly arrive. I'd be more upset if I wasn't already in a case.
[LG V10 Accessories] CantGetAGoodName:
Just got my otter box defender case and I'm actually pretty happy it. It came with the plastic and tpu shell and a holster. The phone for me was already a bit cumbersome,I can't palm a basketball but the weight of the case hasn't affected me much. I for the finger print scanner to work 100% with the case on and no hand on the screen or anything.

I like the bullet in screen protector and the install of the case was easy. No complaints from me really.
[LG V10 Accessories] felloffthetruck:
I don't even believe that you can check your current order status on the UAG site or dial them up on the horn. :(
[LG V10 Accessories] rivera02:
I emailed UAG to check my order status. Ordered on Nov 22nd and still nothing. They said orders are beginning to be processed in the order they were received and they hoped to have them out by the end of the week. Like I said before, you were better off ordering one on black Friday and getting 25% off since everyone had to wait anyways.
[LG V10 Accessories] TotallyAnxious:

[LG V10 Accessories] bigpapi19:
Just got my caseformers case in. Here are some pics. I took the built in screen protector off.

This case feels really good, solid, and durable. It has the rubber on the side that's gives excellent grip. It adds just a little bulk to the phone, but I have big hands so it doesn't bother me. It feels like I can drop this off my house and my phone would be just fine. It was just $10 on Amazon.
[LG V10 Accessories] TotallyAnxious:
There was an ice uag on amazon I just grabbed (97% seller satisfaction, didn't think it would be fake). Also I got the dimensions of the case from UAG (emailed them) since they didn't list it "6.30 in (L) x 3.40 in (W) x 0.44 in (D)". The one from the seller I got is still listed so I don't know if it hasn't been updated yet or they have more than one.
[LG V10 Accessories] Double0EK:
Does this come with a Holster? And does the phone face outwards inside the Holster?
[LG V10 Accessories] bigpapi19:
Yes sir! The holster looks and feels durable. The face is inside. Attaching pics. This case reminds me of the unicorn Beatle pro supcase.
[LG V10 Accessories] Double0EK:
So theres no way it will face outwards? Thats what im looking for. A face out case and holster combo. I already have the Otterbox Defender just looking for another alternative.
[LG V10 Accessories] bigpapi19:
Yes u can. Pics attached.
[LG V10 Accessories] Double0EK:
Sold!
[LG V10 Accessories] bigpapi19:
I really think that this is a better deal and as good a case as the otter box. I stopped using otter box when my wife had a phone with one on and she dropped it from about 2 ft and it shattered the screen. Cost way to much to not protect as good as some cases that are $50+ cheaper.

[LG V10 Accessories] BDestroyer8418:
Thanks for the picture's looks good and good price. I have the Otterbox it is nice but this might be something else I will pickup. I see the picture where the phone will sit inside the holster face out but does the belt clip have the kickstand option where it locks like the Otterbox does looks like it will ? Either way I think I might grab one since I really don't want to remove the plastic screen protector on the Otterbox, but would on this one. This is almost like the Supcase I had for my G4 and once I used that I never used my Otterbox again.

Only thing I don't like about Otterboxes is the plastic case where it clicks together usually they are PIA to remove but the V10 case they enlarged them and a finger nail can unlock them easy. I believe your case is just a Rubber back and the grove on the face cover holds the rubber back in the grove just like the Supcase I had this is much easier to get in and out of the back of the phone.

They also have a different case looks pretty good as well http://www.amazon.com/dp/B017N4K8JI/ref=psdc_3081461011_t3_B017VTT96I has built in kickstand on the back but no Holster and doesn't have the cover ports like the rugged case you got.
[LG V10 Accessories] bigpapi19:
Yes this does have the kickstand, I was using it last night matter of fact. Its exactly like the supcase! I had one for my N6. This seems to have a few more protective points than supcase though. For one the little rubber feet on the back when you sit ur phone down. On the sides and corners extra raised bumper protectors. The built in screen protector was way worse in my opinion than the supcase so I took it out, it was super easy to remove.

I really dislike otter box, no better protection than the case I have on. I'd rather $10 than $60 any day. I can get this case in all the colors except link lol and still save $10.

I saw that case and thought about getting it too. I was wondering if this phone is like the N6 where different cases can use the same holster. That one seems slimmer than this one but I would figure could still fit in the holster.

i just got my aluminum bumper from ebay.. i can't use it.. it couldn't fit and i don't want to force it on my v10.

Luckily i also bought leather back cover. the leather part just a sticker glue to back cover made of plastic.

I chipped on four corner side trying to fit in the bumper.. this is why i ended up not wearing it. and go back to my Nillkin frosted cover.

Edit:

so STAY AWAY from This bumper case.. even tho it is cheap only 3 bucks but it ain't worth it as it chipped your phone!!

I thought i only chipped the back cover.. when i pay attention i chipped a little on front left corner even tho it is not noticeable due the color black but if I pay attention closely

I can see a dot there.

Regretting why i force to put it in!!

Btw that just the front chipped and more 4 corner chipped on the back cover. luckily i used other back cover not the original back cover

It's legit,this is the 2nd item I've bought from 'em (OEM V10 Bumper).

Shipping (free) took only 17 days from Seoul to USA. Expedited shipping will shave off about 10 days.

Anyhoo,the item is exactly as pictured (Actually has both the LG logo & initials in place of the V10 imprint):

Works well,doesn't have any additional (negligible) bulk vs non-QI Cover,should work well with any case available on the market.

If you want to wait,it looks like it will be available at Best Buy (eventually) at the same price:

Should have read my review for this bumper a few pages back. I mentioned the sharp inner edges and the nick it made in my back cover. I ended up filing the inner edges and lining the bumper with vinyl electrical tape to protect my phone. I also talking about how the leather qi backs were thicker than the normal OEM back and wouldn't fit this bumper in the qi charging thread. Had hoped my write ups could have saved others from my troubles, but oh well live and learn I guess. Thinking we need a stickied compilation list of case reviews to make the info easier to find.
