Howdy guys & gals,
Thought I would share this one, it's the first time having a Nillkin case and I managed to bag it for £6 including 2 official screen protectors (they are rubbish) from someone on a local forum I visit here in the UK.
Anyway hopefully it's help to some of you.
thanks for the review, would you recommend this? i need a case asap lol

Has anyone picked one of these skins up yet?
I am going to buy one, because I hate having a bulky case on my phone, and wanted to know if anyone had any experience with it yet. If no one has gotten on yet ill post a small review and some pics when I get it.
I ordered one last week and it arrived about 30 minutes after I left town for the week. I'm going to install when I get home this weekend.
ever try skinomi?? ive been using their skins for a while and never had a problem. Their customer service is on point also.

I bought and installed the carbon fiber from skinonmi and I get compliments all the time on it. Easy installation like the zagg, and the screen protector is awesome.

Thanks for the skinomi recommendation (and video review). It convinced me to buy one.

there are some pics I took real quick. Great product, more for looks tho. I def recommend it. I bought this before the phone was even released and it cost me 15 dollars direct from the website. It also comes in a nice air tight tube that can be reused to store anything that you dont want smelling up your car or girls pocket book if you know what I mean...lol.
does the carbon fiber skin feel smooth or does it have a grip-like feel to it?

I am wondering the same thing. I hope it's grippy b/c that's one of the main reasons I ordered a skin.

Well depends on what your view of grippy means. Its a slick feeling skin so it slides around easy, but the only grip you really get is from the grooves or knurling in the pattern. Basicaly to answer the ? best to my ability I would say the skin provides added or great grip on the edges of the phone but for the large area of the back can be a lil Slick.

oh ok. from the design i thought it would have a textured feel to it. sounds like its just smooth with a design like a regular skin would be.
thanks for the info
I can just barley tell that its textured when I touch it.
I did a review for you guys

Hey guys ,
Just shot this video on a pretty cool case. The only problem with this case for me is the colors. No matte, or no cases without the little sparkles on it, however still a pretty solid case
pd.- sorry for the bubbles on my screen! I just installed it lol
Enjoy!

Great review Raul. I had one of these a few weeks ago and they are beautiful, but it's on it's way back for a refund. It just wasn't quite sturdy enough and doesn't hug the device the way I like it.

you should check this link
http://www.casesss.com/model.aspx?model=223&categories=6
I've already ordered two cases from them, the simai and nilkin case and both are slim and perfect I think the rock flip case is better than the case you've already checked out.

Good to know. What did you and didn't you like about the aliexpress case?
its not that i didnt like the case.
its nice, its functional but i dont
like the look & feel of the backside.
It has a good price, but I was going to buy it and it says up to 40 days on standard delivery! Any other sources? preferably in the EU
http://www.amazon.com/DevilCase-Pro...52359681&sr=8-1&keywords=devilcase+z3+compact
I couldn't find it on the Amazon EU page, and it's $46 USD. If you can get past that, it's an awesome case. I've got one, and I can drop it onto concrete without worrying. It adds very little bulk, as well.
Its important to protect your precious devices from scratch and cracks. So, I suggest you to buy Ringke phone case for your Z3/Z3 Compact which is comes with the HD screen protector.
Anybody ever hear of a Stomob case ?

Tried one the same binned it straight away. Glass on glass is asking for trouble. Not practical goes no where near far enough. Avoid.

Isn't that just the plated tpu you can get for £2ish on ebay?

Wish I would have read this post first. I bought that Stomob case. It does look good with the translucent cover but within 6 hours of putting it on I had 3 large scratches across the screen of my brand new OP7 Pro. The hard plastic cover (it isn't glass - likely polycarbonate) grinds into your screen. I'm super bummed and will see if Stomob stands behind their product at all that they claim ensures screen protection.
I've used clamshell cases on other phones for years without ever getting a scratch - this case causes scratches - avoid at all costs.

Thanks y'all for this info, the adds are awesome, but not the case. I'm going to keep using the provided case until I can find one I really want. It'll have to be a clear back as I'm not covering my Nubia up!!

Yeah totally agree. This case rocks and at half the cost. I looked at a few other cases similar to this stomob one but was concerned about the effects, if any, of the magnets on reception. Can't go wrong with a Supcase tho... Got mine off Amazon at under $13.

Am I really missing something or are all the cases on their site stuff you can get for a few pounds on ebay? But at ten times the price?

Anyone ever thought about modding this case, and cases like this, to remove just the clear backing so that only the frame is left?

No. They're the only option for this kind of case. That sucks. Which is why I question the idea of modding other cases in order to have a bumper-only case. RS cases are just not that great, IMO.

Agree. They're not. I used them on my 6p and if you drop the phone, it's a scuff mark. The paint job peels quite easily as well.
