Need your help guys

So i'm interested in getting this case: Amazon.com: RINGKE SLIM LG G2 Case [SF Black] SUPER SLIM + SF COATED + PERFECT FIT Premium Hard Case Cover for LG G2 [International / Eco Package]: Cell Phones & Accessories

It looks very nice and everything but the reviews are saying that it doesn't fit the international D802 version. Can anyone that has the D802 version confirm this? I'd hate to order it then find out it doesn't fit, it seems like a really nice case.

One comment says it only fits the 8.9 mm version of the phone. ?!? How many versions of this phone are there???

I have no clue, mine is the 9.1mm version afaik.

Looks like the Verizon version is 9.7 mm.

It says it's only compatible with the International version. Unless you want to gamble the $6 on seeing if it fits, I'd look elsewhere.

Interesting. Product description says it only fits the International version yet the reviews say it doesn't fit their international G2's. Somebody's wrong. On a related note, I thought the Verizon G2 was the only odd duck due to the differently sized back buttons while all the other variants were the same size and layout? Could be wrong there.

Apparently the international version is 9.1mm and the ATT version is 8.9.

I've also seen someone ask if this will fit the international version and 2 people answered that it does... Weird.

Seems like 0.2 mm wouldn't be enough to make a real difference but I don't know that for sure. I wouldn't be surprised if manufacturing tolerances could even be held to account for that difference. :dontknow:

In any event, maybe the tolerances vary on this case enough that you either get one that fits or you don't? Just a guess but there's kind of a lot of negative feedback, albeit a pretty small sampling size which could skew the results.

I guess you wouldn't be out much but can't blame you for wanting to know up front. Seems like a legitimate question when a person makes a purchase.

Yeah this is what I was thinking, I prefer slim cases and this one provides more protection than most of the ones of this type so I would definitely like to try it out. I mean worse case scenario I'm out of a few bucks if I can't get a refund.

I have a Nilkkin case (great cases, highly recommended) but would definitely like something different.

And the Verizon version is 9.7 mm.

And the Verizon version is 9.7 mm.

That makes sense because of the wireless charging but I'm not sure why the AT&T one is slightly thinner than the international one.

^^ me too, i am rocking the Incipio Feather. just got the phone a few days ago and surprised by the lack of cases on Amazon that will fit the VZ version of the phone.

to the OP, let us know how this non VZ version fits a VZ model.
