    Best Cases for the Samsung Galaxy S8+

    After trying a number of different cases, I've ended up with the Otterbox Defender case.

    What are your favorite cases for the LG G4?

    I just bought an i-Blason Prime [Kickstand] **Heavy Duty** [Dual Layer] Combo Holster Cover case with [Locking Belt Swivel Clip] for LG G4. Installs and fits very well; kickstand looks a bit flimsy. Phone clips into belt holster and seems very secure and easy to release from the holster.

    Is it still worth it?

    Nexus 7 (2013) is still an excellent buy. It can be updated to Android 6 and it runs well and fast. I have Android 6 installed on my Nexus 7 LTE (2013) and my wife's Nexus 7 (2013). It is still, in my opinion, one of the best buys out there.
