For those thinking of ordering a leather back off eBay...

[GibMcFragger]

Don't hesitate. I ordered mine from "superkosmos" and it arrived from Korea in about 3 weeks. They all come carrier branded with "band LTE" on them, but the embossing isn't very deep, so it doesn't stand out. I ordered the brown and it looks amazing. Here is a pic so you can see the embossing and decide if it bothers you before ordering one.

PS: Ignore my hairy leg in the bottom of the pic. It's hella hot and I am wearing shorts, lol.

Glad to see that you had a good experience. How much did it cost?

$50US.

I just made a point to mention the carrier branding, because ALL the eBay ones from Korea come branded, but they don't necessarily tell you that in the listing.

How is the quality of the brown leather? I haven't held one, but I did hold a black leather version and it felt real cheap.

It feels the same as the black, but not as slick. Remember, it's a piece of leather mounted directly on plastic with no padding, so it won't feel plush like a couch.

Thanks. I'm glad you answered this before I ordered one.

The brown feels more like actual leather. It's solid though, no squish.

I'm happy with the leather back I got off ebay also. US seller took less than a week to get to me for about $37.

Which seller?

It took you three weeks? They must have been out of them. I ordered the brown from the same seller and had mine in three days.

I love that Brown Leather!

Mine came within the promised ETA, but yes, they may have been out of stock. I did get the cheapest shipping though, so it was slow out of Korea.

Me too, but man it's going to get dirty easily.

Bought it from this seller:

LG G4 H815 Battery Backdoor Housing Cover Replacement Leather Black | eBay

Bought it from this seller:

LG G4 H815 Battery Backdoor Housing Cover Replacement Leather Black | eBay

The seller includes: Compatible with LG G4 H815, H810, VS986.
Aren't the backs compatible with all G4 models? With the G3 the AT&T version was the only exception iirc.

I would think so. The cover I got was for the Korean version, and it fits my H812 fine.
