Accessories Cases?

I'm just curious as to what case you have if any, and the positives/negatives you have about the case. I'll start as always :D

I am currently using this case: http://goo.gl/BEiH7z (shortened the link, because it was super long)
Positives: really good fit, well made, good protection for a cheap case, slides easily out of pockets
Negatives: Its a bit hard to get on, feels kinda big in your hand but that's expected for a decent case, buttons are "mushy" but you get used to it.

Please share your cases or other accessories you have purchased for this phone! :)

Edit: Has anybody purchased one of the tempered glass screen protectors for this phone? I was looking to buy one but I don't think metro PCs sells them.

case:

screen protector:

battery pack (if i run out of power, in which I havent yet):

cable (on the way):

The belt buckle for the case broke after a while of use (because I would keep it on my belt even while sitting in my car), so I just use the case itself.

The screen protector yields good results. It's anti-glare so that helps me see the phone a bit. I don't know how long it will last, but I have about 2 more (three of them were used for trial and error)

I keep the battery pack in my wallet for the heck of it. Never know if I run out of power (this has never been a case yet)

The mini cable is for if I need to quickly plug my phone into my laptop to do some quick work to it, or to charge it in my car

Nice! How's the case holding up so far? I'm looking for a new one but I'm unsure of which one to get, I was thinking of buying one of the bodyglove cases they sell at metro or T-Mobile.
 
Sorry about that. This site seems to cry on my lesser LG optumus fuel, hence why I went on my avant now.

The case is a hit in miss in terms of aesthetics damage. It can cause swim scruffs under the case, but keep the screen good. Personally, that is all I care about.
 
How or, apparently my response never came to.

Anyways that last response was due to my LG options fuel crapping out on me.

The case is a hit and miss, it can still cause aesthetic damage to the body, but as long as the screen is okay, I don't really mind

Edit: apparently it did post but it just didn't update on my phone, in feeling like an idiot :c

I am just a BodyGlove type of guy. I use their dropsuit case for Avant. Picked it up off eBay for around 12 bucks.
Looking there for a tempered glass screen protector also, only thing missing from Avant is gorilla glass.

Let me know how well it goes! I'm really looking into buying one, I have no insurance in this phone lol

Its not really worth having the insurance unless you have a high end phone that costs hundreds of dollars. For example my last phone was an lg f6 and you could go in the store and get one for less than 80 dollars with tax and fees included but an insurance replacement was 100 bucks... WTF!?
 
I ordered a new case not too long ago.

It's a flip case, with in mind to the fact that my Avant keeps waking up in my pocket, which is rather irritating. Hopefully this time around, this case will prevent it from waking up (though I fear of the life of the case itself...)

Do you think I could take the glass screen protector into metro and have them put it on? I suck so bad with screen protectors lol. I know if you take in regular screen protectors they will put it on and if they screw it up they give you another one.. Dont know if they'll do that in this case xD
 
I got the flip cover case...I'm a bit meh about it...

The avant is a great phone but compared to other phones the screen felt different. At first I thought it was because it was LCD compared to AMOLEDS, but after I put on the mybat glass protector from amazon it feels great. I also have the first case posted up , and it really pulls the phone together.
