One if my friends bought the g3 and hated the feel of it. He was about to return it when i asked to see it, ends out he missed all the plastic other than the screen protector...
Glad to know I wasn't the only one. VZW rep took off screen and sides. Hated the back button feel and thought the coating was peeling off when I noticed the edges. Much better with it off.
holy cow.. had my phone for weeks now.. never noticed the volume button one.. feel dumb.. oh well.. good to know not alone.. was on there tight too.. probably would have never come of.. thanks OP
When I first got the phone I nearly missed the one on the back buttons as well. It wasn't noticeable to the eye but felt funny. I took a bit of effort to get it off also.
Okay, I've had my phone for 4 days now, and thought I had all of the protective films off of it. I found my wife had missed the ones on the edge 2 days ago, so she got all of those.
But did you notice there's one on the power/volume buttons?
Yeah, me neither. It is now OFF.
So, we have...
1. Screen protective film
2. 4 thin films going around the edge of the phone (if your phone edges feel rough, this is why)
3. Film that looks like a Tie Fighter covering the power button and volume buttons.
Some may know of these, but I bet you I'm not the only one that missed them...
Actually, old Army Secret. Always keep a fingernail handy. Used it like a scoop and scraped the edge till it pulled up a bit. Slid my nail under it and peeled it off. I LIKE the texture of those buttons.
