Default Really nice case

So this looks like a really nice case

Amazon.com: Skinomi TechSkin - LG Connect 4G Black Carbon Fiber Film Shield & Screen Protector: Cell Phones & Accessories

Does anyone have this case?

I dont like having my phone naked, so I bought this crappy one at the store just for now ($20...)

The problem is that the Lg connect is a tiny bit thicker then other phones so most cases would make it look rather chunky.

This case tho, Skinomi-techskin, looks really nice and professional, does anyone have it? If so can someone take pics and show what it looks like?

this is not a case, is a skin is like a screen protector for your back of the phone so it doesnt scratch, 1 thing i i should tell you if you drop your phone this is not going to help.

http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=260984002160&index=3&nav=WATCHING& nid=49976969175 I bought this one, its affordable and does the job as far as protection. Only problem I have is the home buttons are a lil weird to get at, takes a lil to get used to. Other than that it's a great case imo.

I can see that being a hassle, but I've only got one battery so I haven't had that issue yet. lol

Edit: Are you using a ext life battery, if so how does it fit in the case with it on?

I am using the ext now , and no I'm not using the case, it will work with the 1900 one but not the 3500, the case is ok , but nothing out of ordinary, still not otterbox quality lol maybe some day.

An otterbox would be awesome! Unfortunately the only metro pcs android I've seen get love from otterbox was the lg optimus M I believe.

Edit: They also made one for the htc wildfire s

You can get this on any MetroPCS store, is really not that good, the power lock key is hard to press really uncomfortable, I had to change mine because of it.

Yeah I have one of those covers. The power and volume buttons are hard to press with this cover and the kickstand is positioned where you can't have the phone on the kickstand and charge the phone at the same time.
