LG G3 Accessories Thread

[drexappeal]

it's all very nice, but I've already spent about $115 on the accessories for this thing, in addition to $658 that I paid to t-mo upfront.
no way I'm gonna spend another $49.

How about another $26.93? It's basically a knockoff of the TYLT. They didn't have this when I ordered the two (2) TYLT stands I already have, but I'd have bought these instead.

I might give this car charger a try, since I broke my current one being careless (and the teeth don't grip, unless the adjustments are in certain locations)

Even better! I've bought a ton of items from sunsky before. Great deals and lots of accessory options. Found this:

That's the best price I've seen anywhere and shipping is actually relatively fast, for other items I've purchased.

I'm so tempted, but maybe I should wait for cellphone-parts to get this color. Worth it for ~$37 shipped??

Rear Cover Back Cover Battery Cover LG G3 D855 Metallic Black New Original Brand | eBay

So I received my Qi back from Spain today, and it works perfectly. I kind of like the fact that it is a new OEM back (as opposed to the sticker), as it eliminated all of the carrier branding on the back of the phone. Not that that ever bothered me too much, but eliminating it is always a plus.

All in all, I am very happy and think the $37 was worth it.

I have decided to take a risk and bought 2 batteries+LCD charger from this guy
X2 3500mAh BL53YH Battery Charger for LG Optimus G3 VS985 F400 D830 D855 US | eBay
ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

Received it in 10 days after purchase. Batteries do work, although I had to charge them to 100%. So far so good. For $17.98 it is hard to beat.

Original Shockproof Bumper Case Cover Shell for LG Optimus G3 | eBay

pretty good hand feel. Just holding the phone you can't even tell the case is open back because the bumper wraps around a little on the sides. That also helps keep the phone from lying on the counter when you set it down to avoid getting scratched up. Materials feel premium to me and came in official retail pkging.

It charges ok? I've got it in my watch list on eBay now.

HiGot this - Amazon.com: [Ultra Slim] Caseology LG G3 [Copper Gold] [Armor Plate] Protective Hard Cover Snap-on Case [Made in Korea] (for Verizon, AT&T Sprint, T-mobile, Unlocked): Cell Phones & Accessories

Today. I bought it from Amazon because I didn't want to wait for an ebay purchase. I usually get a cheap TPU case but along with getting a non black phone for the first time in over a decade, I wanted something different. The case is about as minimalist as you can get beyond a stick on skin. It's a little more to the red gold color than the phones silver gold, but most people wouldn't even know there was a case on the phone. It wouldn't protect much from a decent drop to the pavement, but will protect the phone from keys in a pocket and small incidental drops. I'm careful with my devices, but this wouldn't be the case for someone who likes to chuck their phone around.

Addendum. The lower edge of the case has a rough edge. Combine that with the cut outs for the ports and you get a sawtooth effect. I tend to rest my pinky on the bottom of the phone and found it became uncomfortable. I was able to resolve the issue by smoothing the edge with some emery cloth. Thus did remove the gold paint from the edge, not tremendously noticeable. Consider in any purchase decision.

Yup, works perfectly.

looks really good.
I'd get one, but I am committed to the QC case w/NFC+Qi.

I'm switching from the S4 to the LG G3, thus voiding most of my accessories. However, I have a Techmatte car charger that I'm going to continue using- you just have to get a usb cable to plug in. I drive a lot, and this is the best charger that I've ever had for any phone. It's really quick.

Anyone pulled the trigger on one of these? Looks intriguing if it can fit in the standard cover.

And it's really 3800mAh.

 

[dubie7006]

True. I don't even know how you'd find that out....voltage meter?

I did. Not too much risk for $6 something shipped. And I've got shipping notification today.

And it's really 3800mAh.

I'll find out soon enough

there are a few apps which are supposed to do this..Battery Monitor Widget..PowerTutor..don't know how accurate they are though, but should give the user a rough idea I guess..

 

[dubie7006]

Maine when are you scheduled to get yours? Please update me when you do!

Coming from China so I dunno.
Stay tuned

Not sure how much interest there'll be for this, but it works pretty well for me. Created my own cloud storage, using an extra 2TB drive that I had at home:

Pogoplug Pogo V4 A1 01 Mobile for iPhone iPad and Android Devices 850877002290 | eBay

$9 is a steal. I got it when it went on sale a few months ago, at $29

Drex, you DO cost me money, do you know this?

Got one. In addition t o 4 other pogoplugs, not mobile though, my poor man server.

In other news:

Chinese batteries and charger that I bought for $17.98 work surprisingly well, the same as OEM battery.

Is that the 3800mah one? You're getting the same battery time out of that as the stock 3000mah?
