Case recommendation. Leather back. Easy/quick on and off?

[ShaneRay]

Sorry for another case thread...

Looking for a case that provides decent protection against drops and that is easy and quick to put on and off. I want to slip one on while at work and remove when I'm not. Needs to fit the leather back as well.

Too many choices for a newbie....

Thanks.

I'll be interested to see what people post up I need a case as well.

I used a bumper on my G4 before I got the V10.

I got mine on eBay for $4.95 but Amazon carries quite a few now for a couple bucks more.

I had the black leather so I wanted to still be able to see and feel the leather while having protection for the sides and corners. It comes off pretty quick and easy as well.

Not sure how much protection you need but this is the case I have over my black leather back. Very easy to slip on and off and has kept my phone safe from lap drops out of the car with screen protector.

Thanks, guys. I'll have a look.

The Diztronic is a great choice for that level of protection/style.

Tudia also makes a nice one that is similar in price and style to the Diztronic.

Thanks, guys. But, decided to change my approach...

Realizing that the G4's "naked" style, while good, wasn't really killer for me anyway (with just the black leather back--a brown or red would be different), I decided to just go "full out" and purchased an Otterbox Commuter at Best Buy today for it. Figured leaving it in full time was the way to go.

The case is OK. Nothing great to look at, but it fits well and is doing what I want. Skipping the screen protector, though....hate those things.

Never used a case before, but felt this one needed it...I've already "almost" dropped it as much in the past 2 weeks as I did in the past year+ with my old phone.

Thanks again....

Hey, I was looking at cases the last few days and the otter was an option. I decided to try a case from amazon called the caseology wavelength in black. It looks way better than the otter and more than likely performs just as well. The color is different in person than in the pics, as it's black fully in person.
Best of all, it's way cheaper.

Go for Ringke Fusion. It's transparent and it has got bumper in 4 corners. It has scratch resistant coating also. You can get it from Amazon. I am using it for past few months. No issues. Would recommend.

Just as a follow up in case anyone is interested...

I absolutely prefer the G4 naked, no contest. However, I also need a case while at work...something about this phone makes it easy to drop for me.

That said, the Otterbox Commuter is working well. As I think has been mentioned before, this case also fits the leather back without issue: I'm not sure why Otterbox stated otherwise. As a bonus, it goes on and comes off quickly...I can pop it off in seconds and have it back on in a few seconds more. I've always heard these cases were difficult to get on and off. Not the case with this one.

Anyway, I never would have been completely happy with any case (for looks and added bulk), but I feel safe having this on while at work and it slips off easily and quickly when I'm at home.

The Diztronic is a great choice for that level of protection/style.

I picked this one up as well in Black and for the price and protection plus grip I've loved it so far! Definitely recommend this one for sure.
