Just a simple review of the skinplayer aluminize aluminium frame for the SGS3.
Its made in korea and available in 11 colours, the frame comes standard with a aluminium home button, 1 mirror screen protector, 1 gloss clear screen protector, vinyl button for the menu and return button, skin for the battery lid and other accessories to help apply the frame and protector.
The cut out for the frame is very precise and fits right to the edge of the phone the silver version has the aluminium finish, but is covered with a coated to have a smooth finish, the frame has adhesive to stick to the screen of the phone and can be removed easily.
As in the photo's you can see with the frame on I can still use the tridea bumper, mercury jelly TPU case and the aeonaz S-contact case.
the screen protector is applied after the frame, and you can choose from clear or mirror finish.
The home button is also precisely cut, but the two other button is a let down, they used vinyl instead which doesn't look good, instead I used the mirror screen protector and did some cutout which looks better, you can see them on the photo's with the green tridea bumper.
Nice review, but in my oppinion this is sexual harrasment for your phone.

Yeah the shape of the button cutouts is not working for me.... Aluminum either but if it were different colors with better shaped cutouts then it'd be on my must have list

It rather a new product, i only got it to try out, if you want one check out ebay time to time, it should be available soon, or get it from www.gmarket.co.kr
I couldn't wait for it to come on eBay. I ordered a red aluminum one. Probably receive it next week I'll update with local one I get it

It looks great on its own, but putting it on the phone makes an otherwise great looking device look like a chinese toy.

I eagerly wait for your review! I have been looking at cases for my SG2, and this one may be the perfect one. This case would make it much easier for designing a tripod adapter.
It looks as though the buttons holes are too deep to use them, maybe it is just how it looks to me. I hope so. I want to get one of these as soon as I know about the button holes.

Those look awesome. However I wonder if they have a liner or something on the inside to prevent damaging the phone itself.
According to the website OP linked they do.

Raises up the camera and screen so as to have less chance of scratches on either, less chance of scratching the sides, which seem to me the most tender in terms of scratches, and offers an easier item to hold. I only want to know if the holes are too deep to use the volume and power button. If that is the case, than I wont buy one. But they do look really :awsm.
One of these in black + a Zagg Invisible shield should be the way to go Pitty BestSkinsEver don't have quicker shipping options to AUS
Really looking forward to hearing your thoughts.please keep us updated.

Damn these look sexy. Especially the gun metal and matte black. A review would be appreciated!
Wish they didn't say "Taurus" on the back and side though.

Airbrushing isn't that hard, just sand the thing down, prime it, sand it, paint it, then clear coat. Take you about a days wait, with about 2hours work.
if you're lucky, the letters will be in plastic, this way you can use a sugar cube to scratch it off. the reason for the sugar cube is because its not hard enough to scratch the paint/metal off yet strong enough to remove plastic lettering
Got this case from Tmart.com. It comes in 2 pieces and they give you an extra color to change. I ordered the light blue+yellow/grey. The material has a nice grip but its not that "grippy". The case wouldnt provide that much protection from drops. The case quality is superb for its price. I was browsing around their website and they seem to have cheaper cases than the one i bought. I would reccmmend this case for people who dont need much protection but want to interchange cases depending on color and looks.
This is the case I bought

Other S3 cases on their site.

The case fits with my Glass screen protector which is edge to edge and a little thicker than most screen protectors.

Lol i agree with you but I didnt want to pay for a aluminium home button sticker and used a free one. I change my screen protectors depending on my case(Which was a grey one today). I guess I should have changed the screen protector before I did the review.

No, I got the red aluminium button from a red aluminium frame and the yellow screen protector is a glasszone bulletproof.
I dont think i did this case properly. I was using some crappy color settings

Lol, looks better with the red button. my bad dude.

For those interested in an excellent, form-fitting, comfortable, and inexpensive case, I highly recommend getting the Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit case from Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00E6N68QM/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I got mine earlier this week and I love it. Perfect cutouts for the buttons and ports, and feels great in the hand. I got the clear one, so the sides, top, and bottom are completely clear, with the back having a frosted look. Overall, if you're looking to customize and want the color to show through, this case is a great option. Here are a few pictures:

For those that have this case..how is the swiping in from the side of the screen (to open the new google standard slide-out menu). I had a speck case I got from AT&T and returned because it covered to much of the sides of the screen and made it impossible to do this. Any input would be appreciated!
I have this case. Its hard to text sometimes using swype because the case comes so far up to the sides of the phone. Otherwise, its perfectly fine.

Got the cruzerlite care and the diztronic. Greatly prefer the diztronic, as it seems easier to press the power and volume buttons.

I really wanted the Black, but everywhere that I've called say that they only have the silver.
Anyways, what case will you be rocking?
I chose the Seidio Surface case for light use and the Seidio Active w/ kickstand for heavier duty.
this is the first phone I'll primarily be using naked, so I got this as a quick case to put on and off depending on the situation, along with a mime ghost glass tempered glass screen protector

I'd like something thin and clear to show off it's style but I'm bad about dropping my phone. Ideally I'd like something like the old invisishield that's just a layer over the screen and back but also covers all the edges. Any suggestions?
Incipio Dual Pro Shine Silver / Black

Really like it so far. Fits the phone well. The only quarrel I have is that the screen on/off button is hard to hit right, but muscle memory will make it easier in the future.
Urban Armor for me!
Otter Box Commuter series case has never failed me before.
Speck GemShell
I had to cut slits on the sides of the volume buttons though to make it easier to press. Poor design.

Diztronic TPU
I ordered the goospery slim, avoid it. Not only is the fit garbage but they put a sticker inside the case that has been impossible to remove in one piece.
I got the Verizon brand..."high gloss silicone" cover...
I have this case: amazon.com/Poetic-Palette-Premium
Its very minimalistic and feels very soft. Only $8 but I would have paid double.

Hello,Fellow Nexus 5 Users! This is the review of the SlickWraps Skin for our Google Nexus 5.Most of you might have heard of SlickWraps.They produce a variety of skins for a plethora of devices such as smartphones,consoles,smartwatches etc.Do check out their website www.slickwraps.com and I’d like to thank them for sending one out to me for review.
So,The skin which I have here is the white alligator skin from the leather series.The package came to me by Post,Slickwraps does send these skins worldwide.Inside the package,The are the front,side and rear wraps for the Nexus 5 along with 3 tiny wraps for the USB cable and wall adapter.Slickwraps also includes a nice clear Screen Protector inside the Package.
The screen protector is good.It only covers the screen instead of covering the whole front of the phone.This prevent any TPU case from creeping under the protector and removing it
Installation
Coming to the skin,the installation is actually pretty simple.Just align the skin properly with all the ports and the buttons and you are good to go.Do keep a hair dryer next to you while installing because after installing the skin,you need to use it around the sides and edges of the screen.This will melt the vinyl of the skin and it will stick properly to the phone.Also,this skin is removable and it will not leave any residue. So if you don't get it right the first time,you can re apply it again. Also, when applying the front skin,make sure not to cover the proximity sensor because if you do, the screen would go off,in case you try to call someone.Try to keep the notification light blinking so that you don't cover it either.
My Opinions and Review
After using the skin for a few days,I feel that it is a nice little addition to the Nexus 5.It gives the phone a different look than the traditional colors and makes your phone stand out from the crowd.The cut outs are perfect for all the phones but I feel that the finishing of the skin is great but it could be slightly better.The skin attaches perfectly to the phone and it won't get detached from the phone accidentally.Overall,the skin feels very nice and in my opinion the white leather skin which I have looks amazing on the Nexus 5.For $16.95,considering that you also get a screen protector,it is definitely worth checking out.SlickWraps also did send me its camera lens protector and a few Nexus 'X' Stickers.
If you don't like this particular skin,there are many other series and colours to choose from.I have attacthed high resolution images of the skin in this thread.I hope you guys like it.
For more details and instructions,watch my full review/installation video linked below.

Do drop your questions and feedback about the skin.
Thank You!
Side pieces NEVER look good. Even applied perfectly they look hack.
