[pics] Skinomi carbon fiber

Well I received my package in the mail today and what do ya know, its the carbon fiber skin I ordered! I bought a skin because I highly dislike cases, it always adds bulk and it really peeves me. Took me about half an hour to install it and I think I did a good job. Doesn't quite cover it 100% but i guess its enough.
Pros: Looks amazing
I like the texture
pretty good coverage
Cons: wasn't expensive, but it wasn't cheap either ($20)
Afraid it might peel (will update this in a few weeks)
still kinda slippery, possibility of it falling =\
I apologize for the blurry pics, I will post better ones once my camera is charged.
P.S. I also have a SGP Ultra-Oleophobic screen protector on, best screen protector I have used.
If you want to buy your own: Skinomi Carbon Fiber
SGP Ultra-Oleophobic

Looks quite good. I just wish they would make one that has front and back coverage. Having a cf back but stock front looks like skinomi did a half assed job.

Where would you even put it on the front? The whole thing is glass up front with hardly any bezel

The OP included the link in his first post, but wanted to point out that all of the skinomi skins for the atrix are cheaper on amazon than the actual skinomi site. It's only a few bucks, but might as well save when you can.

That's why I put "The OP included the link" part. Just wanted to specifically point out that it's cheaper on amazon in case someone just googled skinomi and found their site lol. I would have ended up ordering from skinomi if I hadn't checked amazon first (wanted to take advantage of prime for shipping then found out it was cheaper) so I wanted to make sure others were aware.

I have the same thing, since this doesn't affect the car dock. I used the same skinomi carbon fiber kit on my Droid X, doesn't just peel off, you have to peal it off if you want it to come off..
I did use the screen protector that came with the kit, if you have any bubbles or blurs, it will go away within a couple of days.. I had 3 bubbles show up on my screen the next morning after installing, but it went away in 2/days.. I can't even tell I have it on, looks just like it did before I installed the screen protector..

They work fine just like they did for my Captivate too - put a T-shirt over your front buttons and try pressing them, does the same thing!
OP - Looks like "skinomi" charged you $20 for a pre-cut version of what you could have done yourself from an $8 strip from CarbonFiberFilm.com.... but hey, the cuts look good from what I can see in the pics, and it solves the issues people keep asking me about rounding off the corners on the back cover. I didn't do the back cover for a reason, so if you want to, buy this!

Yes I understand I was overcharged, however i do not have the expertise with cutting and probably would have wasted more than $20 worth of di noc

original flip case ..Anyone found a solution for the cover ?

My original case (whick I think is brilliant but has a big manufacturing fault)is starting to fall apart at the edges as with most other users.I thought about applying super glue or tape but wanted to see if anyone was able to solve the problem before I begin experimenting.

Very true ,I wondered how the people who made such a good device can make such a bad cover for the case ,problem is it is very practical and does not add size ,I have the Zenus case also but I prefer the Samsung which is falling apart!

I bought a I would recommend going for a full body skin as the full body protectors give the same protection that a case does but without the added thickness.
My flip cover went through the same as yours, I superglued it but even then it kept coming off.
BTW... I went to the samsung store to see if they had the MHL adaptor, there was a galaxy note booth and the guy there wanted to ask me if I had any grievances...
Told him about the flip cover and the lack of gorilla glass (dont you get me started on that ) The guy later came home and collected my flip cover and said its being sent to samsung and i should hear a reply from them in 2 months... have NO idea what that was about... dont use it anyway so gave it to him...

Yeah, paid $45 for mine. It's cheap junk but a good idea.

Wouah.mine still good. Only a week yet. Too bad i like the flip case a lot!

Guess you are lucky, mine started falling apart since day 3

SAMSUNG THE FLIP COVER IS VERY COOL BUT QUALITY IS BAD SO PLEASE IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF IT BEFORE YOU RELEASE 100.000 MORE OF THESE!
You still have 200.000 of the bad ones?
Give THOSE for free and give THE GOOD ONE when someone pays for it!

At least this flip cover back is thick enough to protect the camera lens better than the stock thin battery cover which doesn't.
Woah~ got mines as a bonus w/ phone. Going on 2 wks old and still intact but the back cover pops out once a while. Not as annoying yet, however I already ordered my Zenus leather case.

Expansys is dropping prices every other week it seems. You can get it now for $32 + fatwallet cashback 2% on top of your credit card reward choice.
And anyone looking for WHITE S-pen replacements, then ebay seller shimshop has some.

I thought I was one of the lucky ones also but unfortunately sooner our later the case goes bad.
I agree that Samsung should release a better version.

Yep, me too. Put it on the day i bought the note (sometime in November - release day UK) and it's still like new! Admittedly, being winter, i have only put it in the inside pocket of a jacket or coat. Maybe it has a chemical reaction to jeans!

I have the Original flip cover too, and yes I Love it too. The edges are wearing, I thought by now someone would have made an aluminum flip case. Thought about ordering the aluminum battery case, but I want the front to be the same and work like the Original flip case.

Somehow leather products with "glued" edges do fall apart quite easily. Happens to ladies' handbags all the time!
As for how to fix it, the answer is simple: blanket stitching!

I can't believe we're all being so tolerant!
This crappy fall-apart "case" from Samsung is totally unacceptable!
They must have known they had a problem when they started to give them out free.
They should have recycled and remade the lot PROPERLY.

[Q] Diztronic case and mercury screen protector

I was wondering if anyone tried the combination of the diztronic case and a mercury screen protector. The new mercury SP's doesnt cover the entire front anymore (see picture) and was hoping the rest of the front would be covered by the diztronic case.

I have the SP and matte case diztronic, and it shows a little bit of the S3 front screen when the case is on. its unnoticeable though. I have a blue Galaxy S3 and black case, black SP.

That actually looks really nice. I really like that the screen protector covers the Samsung logo, but hate that it adds the Mercury logo to the front of the phone. I would love to have an all black S3 with no logos but, alas, I've yet to find a way to do that.

try bullkin. I think there's a thread somewhere here with a direct link to buy from china.
the only drawback is that the menu/back key barely lets the light through.
EDIT: since it ships from china, it will take a while, but i have the red one and it covers up nearly everything save a tiny sliver on one or the other side.

do you have a case on the s3 or just the sp? because i really want the diztronic case and trying to figure out which SP would be best to pair with it

I didnt order the bullkin one. I kind of prefer the mercury because its anti glare. lol.
Btw, my phones back cover has a xtremeguard back protector and when its not there, the case wraps much better on the phone and doest show the original screen of the phone

thanks a bunch. That was the one I was looking for (but in red) I know ebay has some for sale and I remembered someone here said they're buying one so i'm waiting to hear their response in regards to "lift" for the bumper.
the only thing that bothers me about that case is that it's a cutout of the buttons rather than a cover.. but that's why i'm thinking of taking apart my other case to modify to do so. I'll see if I can post results if it's successful.

this one is red.... im thinking about try it because i have the same one but the slider version and not the screw.
Let me know if it works well with the bullkin SP.
also i like the cutouts.... cases with a cover over the buttons tend to be too sensitive or impossible to press the buttons

sounds good. when i get to modding mine. i'll post a review of some sort.

oh god. that case, i have a black one of that. One of the screws goes through the hole, but this is because of the case being defective. But the piece where the screw rests, gets. The case looks good though, but the buttons are too deep in the case. You wont be able to press them with ease. Maybe when youre done modding ill try the case again.

btw, since you said you have that case, when you place the phone on its back, does the camera lens still touch the surface it's laying on or does it give abit of space?

The "full body" just cover the back itself, doesn't cover the sides, top or bottom. All in all, it's pretty good, all the cut outs are pretty dead on... Except for the front face ear piece, it's cut so that there it about 1/16" of uncovered screen on the right and then about 5/8" on the left... My ocd is screaming at this, but I'm sure I will get over it. (Edit shortly after posting this I realized there are two sensors to the left of the ear piece, lol... With the black front they are nearly invisible)
Ultimately, not bad for 2 bucks.

In case anyone needs a code, currently (12/3) the following just worked for me:

Just got 9 front/back and 1 back only, came out to $14.30.
Thanks again for point these guys out.
1 Question, do you really need to use soapy water? Or if the device is brand new can you just use regular water? (Thinking the soap might be the cause of the rainbow effect)
Thanks

Picked up 3 fronts and a back for 2.10 on Black friday!
put the front on and ****ed one up it seems to work pretty well. has that rubbery feel to it which is fine with me.
only complaint is a slight orange peel texture (look) to it.

FYI the Cyber85 still works, just ordered the full body skin for $1.60

Just ordered 3 body kits for $4. Cyber85 still works!

Zizo Bolt Cover is not well-made.

Just received the Zizo bolt cover case. It looks nice but that is about it. I did a short Youtbe video and left a review on Amazon. I was going to leave it at that but the return/exchange policy was so bad I wanted to share this with you guys. Overall the case feels like cheap plastic. For the price I wasn't expecting much so that was not the reason for my return. The kickstand does not sit flush on my particular case. When the kickstand is closed only one side sits flush. I figured they would send me a prepaid label so I could return it in hopes that the replacement wouldn't have the same issue. The box itself came in a flimsy bag. the bag was intact but the box was torn. just a heads up guys!!!
One thing I want to mention is that I wish companies would make a standard and a premium case. All the 10 to $20 look and feel cheap. I am going to get a real leather case for it but I wish someone would make a rugged case made out of hard rubber/plastic and metal.

Maybe it was one bad case in the bunch. I have been playing with my kickstand to see if it goes in flush all the time and it does. I got the orange one. It is a nice color and case. The screen protector that came with it is pretty good too.

I figured it was just a faulty unit and figured they would have no problem replacing it. They are making new pay for return shipping and for a box to return it in. This is the video I shot to show the issues and the confirmation of the box damage.

Just received the Zizo bolt cover case. It looks nice but that is about it. I did a short Youtbe video and left a review on Amazon. I was going to leave it at that but the return/exchange policy was so bad I wanted to share this with you guys. Overall the case feels like cheap plastic. For the price I wasn't expecting much so that was not the reason for my return. The kickstand does not sit flush on my particular case. When the kickstand is closed only one side sits flush. I figured they would send me a prepaid label so I could return it in hopes that the replacement wouldn't have the same issue. The box itself came in a flimsy bag. the bag was intact but the box was torn. just a heads up guys!!!
One thing I want to mention is that I wish companies would make a standard and a premium case. All the 10 to $20 look and feel cheap. I am going to get a real leather case for it but I wish someone would make a rugged case made out of hard rubber/plastic and metal.

I'm seeing other people report that the charger doesn't work with the case on, can you confirm?

I didn't even get to test that out before I returned mine. I did hear they were aware of that issue and were sending out replacements. That informal came from an Amazon review I read.

I'll try to snap pics later, but I can confirm that my zizo bolt ordered from Amazon on 11/15, fits perfectly. I can charge, and use headphones with the case on without any issues.

I personally think that it is well made. Seems sturdy, and everything works as it should. Plus it looks nice. I don't use the holster, but it seems solid for those who will use it. Also the included tempered glass screen protector is pretty nice

Not well means that mine came out of the box defective. The kickstand does not lay flush with the case on my unit. I did an out the box video review that demonstrated the issue. As with ever product especially first production run there will be more QC issues. I just happened to get a defective until.

did you had yours replaced?

They made me pay for return shipping, tracking and a box to send it in. I am not going to risk that again.

i feel you man... hopefully new batches are all ok... but heck, you shouldn't pay a dime for the return coz of their mistake. tsk tsk
