I have a verizon G3 with NFC but no Qi case.

I would like to get a case or back plate with Qi. I am considering getting a Qi back plate separately and add a spigen slim armor case. There are conflicting reports of spigen case working with a Qi charger.

Can anyone recommend a suitable combination of case+charger that is known to work?

The LG slim guard is $50 total. But im not too crazy about this case.
Spigen case is 10-18, Qi back is 15-25

I don't know if this helps but I ordered a nfc+qi pad that replaced the nfc pad that is on the back cover. It took me no more that 5 minutes to do and now I have wireless charging working.

Coming from the g2 that was important. I'm waiting on the spigen case and another tpu care to come in the mail.

Adding the wireless charging not expensive and I got to keep my original battery cover.

Here's a strange story about qi charging on my g3... Purchased the qi sticker on ebay and I already had the Nokia dt 910 fatboy qi charger, so I figured I would be good to go! Not as easy as I had hoped ?
The phone would charge with my lg circle case but not my Spigen Slim Armor case (my personal favorite), all that would happen is the dreaded disconnect and reconnect ? and a few days later I tried again and it actually worked! It still works perfectly fine.
Yes the lg g3 can use qi with the slim armor case with the right charger
