i hope they sell this OEM on amazon or ebay, its pretty slick...i dont know about the actual material though
there is a video of it in action on engadget also, it shimmers
http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/14/t-mobile-galaxy-s-4g-hands-on/

I was wondering the same thing...definitely a buy for me. I would finally be able to have a "high-end" looking back.

I would have to agree on that! Looks awesome!

would definitely buy

Check this out!!!! Sick skins for our x10

Hey guys, i was just looking up accessories for the x10 and came across this website: http://www.istyles.com/sony-ericsson-sony-ericsson-xperia-c-292_532_749.html
There is soooo many to choose from and so many lovely ones. Apparently they also come with a free matching background, where the skin actually matches the screen. SOOOO COOL
But one question, im a noob and i want this but what exactly is it, a sticker, case, What????
sticker...but to me skin is useless. i have xperia skin at home..but i paste it on a paper, cuz im not using it. i prefer case. but not the type where it "FAT-ASS" it.
wow those are some really cool skins!
oh so is a sticker?looks nice....
Nice find!!!
I've heard that is good ones, but for my case is case anyway.
Very nice styles! Thanks for the hint!
Are there maybe some cases like those? Im not accurate enough i think :b
that's looks dope love it.
Awesome.. i ordered this one.
I WANT IT!
Hey guys, i haven't ordered one yet but i want to wait until someone can tell me, especially OmegaRed, if the order was successful and you received it without any problems. Please also describe it when you get it
Thanks

I was informed there was a store nearby were i live.
Gona go check it out today.
Very nice, how long it will to keep on the phone?
It's actually very nice. i didn't buy one they ordered the one i wanted.
But they showed me one that was in a i-phone.
Looks great.
I haven't bought one for my X10 since I would rather have a hard case than stickers but the rest of my family wanted some for their phones so since apparently I'm the only person in the house who is savvy enough to purchase things online I ordered a couple a while ago and they all arrived after about 2 weeks. the quality is actually quite good, though I'd recommend you pay the extra $2 for the Matte coating.
Another cool thing is that after your first purchase any time you buy another skin they give you a small discount (think it's like $2).
So yeah, if anyone is worried about the quality or reliability of the skins I've applied three to different phones and they are easy to put on and look great with the matching wallpapers which are really easy to get too.
Just got mine in the mail today... ordered online and got it pretty quickly...Looks very sharp and it appears like its peelable and you are able to reapply anytime you want. It looks veryyyyy sharp but doesnt offer much protection(obviously just a sticker). Somewhat difficult to put on. Needed help applying mine, but it fits just right when you get it. If you want a sharp look. I recommend this.
Woooooow Very Nicee !!
I will Wait for it
nice news!! pls guys when you'll receive your skins,post some photos..i'm very curios to see how they look!! Thanks

Good wallet/diary style case?

I'm looking for a good book/diary/wallet style case for my new T-Mobile Galaxy SII. Something like the BookBook case for the iPhone:
http://twelvesouth.com/products/bookbook_iphone/
or this case for the international Galaxy SII:
http://www.bizwinkorea.com/tablet-p...ine-leather-diary-wallet-type-case-cover.html
I'd kinda want it to look like a leatherbound book, but that's not as important as it actually being leather. I do want it to have pockets opposite where the phone sits to hold money, cards, etc.
Anyone seen anything like this?
None? Nobody's seen anything like this?
Honestly bro I looked high and low for a case like this and it just isn't out yet. There's an OEM product called "Samsung d30 t989 leather slip cover" coming out sometime in the next few months that can be found with Google if you search the quoted phrase. The one case I found like what your asking turned out to be an incompetent eBay seller labeling **** for the international gs2 like it would work for ours.
Sent from my SGH-T989
eeeewwwwww.......
i don't like those cases, yes, they have their good uses, but... not my type
i can see many scenario and situation when & where i might want to use one, but it's not worth the cost
just search for something similar, you don't need an exact fit for those type of cases, look for another phone with similar size spec, and find it
any updates on this case?
bump for great justice. i really like the twelve south case
I've been looking at this
http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=34089
just ordered it few days ago waiting for it to show up
---------- Post added at 10:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:26 AM ----------
dont buy for talkietech or wirless age or something like that, they both dicked me around for two weeks and told me not in stock, there is a guy on ebay from hong kong that has stich color options for pd case, but i got the original from the website above
I ordered a "black Napa leather case" off Amazon. Nice quality but so thick it could hold 2 sgs2's and way too wide. Clearly not made for our phone.
http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0075/8682/t/1/assets/phonefoldgrey-full07.jpg?111878
This case is exactly what I want but it's only for iPhone and the measurements don't match.... our phones are too wide
I've been searching for the same thing. I found this one and I really like it. Although the camera and speaker holes are wrong. Might get it and try it out anyway..

I actually might have found it on ebay.

The picture shows an iPhone but the description says it's for a galaxy s2. It's a bit on the pricey end and I'm not sure about the quality since it's not a genuine Twelve South. But they sold 12 of these so far without negative feedback.

I guess, given that there's no hole on the back for camera or speakers, it should work just fine. I don't know how much different our phone is from the original GS2.
Still, at $40, I guess I'd like to hear from someone who has my phone and has bought the case.
I emailed the seller and asked for some pics of the actual item. I'm sure it's an i9100, but here ya go. Looks nice none the less. I may pick one up.
I axially bought one of these and I really like it. It doesn't line up with the holes for the touch buttons perfectly, but my x-acto took care of that easily. Seems to be pretty good quality. I've been using it for about a month.

>>> Nexus 5 wraps from SlickWraps.com <<<

These guys were kind enough to send me a wrap, so I through a review up for you guys. Let me know what you think, and go check them out. Feel it is a very good product, and I was hesitant.

Thanks for the review, I was just checking the website and they look really interesting. I'm really curious about how the glowing ones work.
But man...how much did you have to drink? :laugh:
Sexy looking phone
Nexus 5 sucks
Even though I am the type of user that can't afford to not have a case on my mobile devices (proven by painful past experiences), I couldn't just go around with a wrap only. But I have to say that the one shown in this video review looks beautiful and this person must be a pro in installing them since it looks superbly installed.
Got a silver CF one and in the mail. But I have been using slickwraps for my Pebble watch pretty much since I got the Pebble. I can attest to the great customer service, the great quality of the skins and willing to work with you with any issue you may have. And the packaging is pretty top notch too. No risk of bending there! Well, you really have to try if you are intending to bend the envelope lol.
I haven't gotten mine in, but I will post up pics once I do.
Glow in the dark... interesting
Thanks for the review Callip!
I went with the XGear skin because it was on sale, but I like how precise the cut-outs on the skin you were sent look.
Keep us updated about how the skin wears and what you turn to next.

Moto 360 bumper case 3D printed

I haven't seen anyone post this on XDA and I thought this is was different. sorry if already posted
below I have the quote from the original posting from the seller. DISCLAIMER: I have no affiliation to the seller nor do I know him!
ogdobber said:
I've designed two simple snap on cases for the Moto 360 that I hope will offer some extra protection to the glass face. Right now there is a short and tall version. The short is just 0.3mm over above the glass and the tall is 1.5mm above.
I've been wearing the short one in black since Thursday and have been happy with it from a fit and look standpoint. The matte black next to the stainless ring on the front looks great. And the tall version should be here this week and as long as it looks OK i will likely switch to it as i feel like the short one is mostly appearance and not helping to protect the glass at all. Can you tell I'm phobic about scratching the face of this watch?
I have only ordered the black and polished metallic. The black looks great but the metallic looks cheap and I wouldn't willingly wear it.
I'm open to suggestions for changes to shape and design if people would like some other versions. And while i make a few dollars off each of these, this is not a business and I'm never going to open tooling and make these commercially in volume. But i would be really surprised if there are not a dozen phone case makers turning out similar products in a few months. I'm actually wondering why they are not there already? Maybe Motorola didn't release outside dimensions ahead of release like they do for many phones.
If other are interested you can order from here: www (dot)shapeways(dot)(Com)/shops/Raelx[/url]

Great find! I may order the white one.. The only thing Im iffy on, is its covering up the beauty of the silver
Love the idea. but then again, its just more bulk to the watch (which is already big on my smaller wrists)

Like I said, I may order the white one as I feel it looks more like what a watch would be. So maybe get a white band too. More options to match an outfit too.

Short or tall version? This looks very interesting.
This is definitely interesting, I like it. To bad the shipping is almost as much as the case itself. Any discount codes for the site? I think I might just have to order one.
I ordered the matte black one today. I already have a few scratches on the side of the watch and bezel, but I managed to buff them out for the most part. This will help keep it from getting more scratched up I think. I'll post pics once I get it.

Short.
Looks great, I was ready to buy one, but it shows $19.99 for shipping, too much for a package that small.

I just ordered one with USPS First Class shipping total out the door $12.99
That's a reasonable price, the problem is i live in Puerto Rico and it shows $19.99 for ship to a total of $27.99, and some sites think we are international shipping. We have in PR USPS, UPS, Fedex that I use always without problem. Sending a small like that would be like 5 to 6 bucks on USPS.
For example: Yesterday i was going to buy a Amazon Fire TV for my boss, and I was unable to buy, even calling amazon support they told me they cant be shipped to Puerto Rico, and the crazy thing its I have a Fire TV since launch that I bought directly from amazon and received via UPS next day and she saw the order on my history he don't even know how i do it. I have prime and I receive the diapers for my toddler second day via UPS. Crazy stuff LOL
I live in NY so I have asked Shapeway if there is any way I can come pick it up. Their website does mention the fact that they are cool with personal pickups.
Shipping 2 to Florida and only 4.99 for USPS First-Class Shipping

Battery Case - Too good to be true?

I pre-ordered a battery case on Amazon, but it just seems too good to be true. I cannot see how they can fit a battery that size into that case for that price.
https://www.amazon.com/Rechargeable-External-Portable-Protective-Charging/dp/B06Y63HPCL
5200mAh
$26.99
Very slim and slick looking
Any thoughts? Should I cancel the pre-order or is Amazon reliable when in helping to avoid fraud?
I just saw this, it's not that expensive, please post IF you get it with pictures as to how thick, hand feel, and so on. I'd be very interested in it if it's not going to make my device look like a brick from the 90s.
There's about 5 pages of questions now and there's a LOT of discrepancy between what the "description" states and what the answers from the seller state:
Description: has a kickstand
Seller answer: has not kickstand
Seller keeps saying you can wirelessly charge with this case in the questions, I WANT to know how that will work. I may order this JUST to see if any of the hype is true
It looks monstrously big for the s8 plus
Update: They increased the price from $26.99 to $39.99. That sounds more realistic now. Also the picture is different and it looks a bit more clunky than the original images. Once I get it I will post pictures of it and give a review.
No way that's 5500 is such a slim case, this case is 5500mah look at that fatty https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06ZXYRCKM/ref=psdc_7073960011_t1_B06Y63HPCL
Okay, holy mother of crap, that thing is huge.
I just could never do a case that big...not with phones this size. Holy crap i can't imagine that in my pocket.

Plus I foresee a case that thick making the fingerprint sensor unusable.

Please post feedback when you get it.
It may not be the slickest case but if it does add 5000mAh then it can be a backup plan for a weekend outdoors. There are times when having a battrey pack makes it much more clunky than a battery case, no matter how bigger it makes the phone.

So, let's see what could possibly go wrong:
Third-party company that no one has ever heard of making a battery case that doesn't even agree with its own pictures of the product/product description
Will it overheat? No, why would you think that?
Will it make your phone burst into flames? Why would that be an issue?
Will it actually work as stated? Sure, so many of the cheap knockoff battery cases work just great.
Please do post how this works out for you. Also, make sure you have a spare device from which to call 911 (or 999 depending on your location)
Best power case would be zerolemon when it comes out
Just ordered this one from Amazon. It's in stock and I will get it monday and let you know how it is.
https://www.amazon.com/ALCLAP-Porta...-catcorr&keywords=Galaxy+S8+Plus+Battery+Case
I guess there's one manufacturer that makes all of these cheap power cases for any brand. The price is great but I wouldn't risk an S8+ for a 50$ price difference. And everything above 3000 mAh will add too much bulk. Don't bother and think that it won't look like a brick. I was prepared to order the Mophie but got insulted by their bad marketing moves. Articles all over the web about the release of the legendarry Juice Pack, and all I got was a coming soon warning! No Thanks. As djhulk2 said I would go with the ZeroLemon or the I-blades. Remember these are brands, plus the I-blades adds extra memory, a platform for other modules and Military Grade Certificate.
They should have different size of batteries...maybe 1000mAh, a 2000mAh, and 3000mA

There are numerous choices out there (just from a google search using the terms S8+ battery cases):
https://powerpluscases.com/collecti...-galaxy-s8-plus-battery-extender-case-5500mah
https://i-blades.com/products/galaxy-s8-plus-case-battery-life-memory
https://www.amazon.com/ICONIC-Portable-External-Protective-Charging/dp/B06ZZB2QYC (has a code of 2RADT4V8 for $10 off making the price about $30, know NOTHING about this battery, BGR is hyping it)
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06ZZB2QYC/ (another case with a code HC7VJ26M for more of a discount, again another site is promoting this)
https://www.amazon.com/Rechargeable-External-Portable-Protective-Kickstand/dp/B06Y63HPCL/ref=sr_1_5 (no idea about this)
https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_...+battery+case&rh=i:aps,k:s8+plus+battery+case (a generic search for s8 Plus battery case on amazon)
And that was about 10 minutes worth of looking. There are PLENTY of options out there, just got to be willing to look.
