Gelaskins review

Review for "Gelaskins Enamored Owl Samsung Galaxy S III "
Hellur everyone, as you can see the gelaskin is pretty much a sticker that goes onto the body of your phone, be aware that with the gelaskins you dont get a screen protector so youll have to custom cut your own.
It took me at least 45 minutes to put this on, i dont have any fingernails so it was rough to apply it to the phone correctly
But all in all it smooths out easily and looks freaking awesome. Gives your phone a unique look and feeling.
I would rate this higher than any other phone skin, gelaskins customer service is also pretty reliable and awesome. Great place to get a phone or tablet skin.

I've always wondered about these. How do you view your content/screen through this? All I see is the design. Doesn't that get annoying?

The design is just a wallpaper matching the skin. Nothing is covering the display.
The skin is 3 parts:
The back skin
The front-top skin covering the earphone
The front-bottom skin covering the softkeys/home button

That's correct. Gelaskins let's you download the matching wallpaper with the phone skin. Pretty awesome, make sure you pick a design you wont get sick of.

Big thanks to the guys at Gruver Concept.

For those of you who don't know who they are, they lazer etch preset or custom images on the backplate (battery door) of the Galaxy Nexus.
Not only did I receive it within a week of them having shipped it (they reside in the States, I'm from Canada), but they also sent it marked as a gift, meaning I didn't have to pay duty.
This was the end result:

We etch the SGS2 i777 battery doors. We have them in stock as well if you'd like to have some work done.

Hey OP, if u don't mind, how much didbu end up paying ?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

$48 with shipping, not too bad a price really for it being custom-designed and all. I'll do it again for the next nexus phone as well.

Wow that isn't bad at all. Hey phase, is there a certain pricing system u guys go by or is it random?

Killer design I love it. Only thing I am not loving though is how big those pics are! lol But regardless it looks great the etches are nice and clear so there is no issue with reading the quote as well.

Type cover

I recently purchased a Bluetooth keyboard that also functions as a cover for the Note. Keys are on a lower level so the screen doesn't come in contact with them. Tactile feel is a bit snap more than click.

But do you like it and after using it would you buy it again or look for another.

It isn't bad by any stretch but I'd be willing to pay a little extra for a model that clamped on to the Note a little more securely. Carrying it around by hand is fine, but if I'd put it in a backpack I'd worry that they'd separate. Perhaps some real world testing is required, but I'm chicken.

I've charged it once only. It is rated for 150 hours of usage so probably be another two weeks before it needs to be charged again.

I have seen a video review on it and they talked about that same issue, I would not trust it from what I saw in the video.

Wish I had seen that before the purchase, but I'd probably bought it anyway. To me it i a complimentary keyboard, my main is a MS Bluetooth Keboard 6000.

I have this keyboard and use it quite a lot. Battery life is good and I do just toss it into my bag and go. I've had it about 4 months with no problems.

For me the white one is more attractive and would go better with my white 8013.
The price is very good and makes me want to order one but I'm going to pass on this accessory.
For now.
.

is it possible to use a case while using the keyboard?
also is it possible to have a case on when its clamped with the tab?

Hand strap case?

Really looking for a case that makes it so I can hold my tablet with one hand and use my stylus easily... I used the search with no luck.... Anyone?
For reference, if you've ever been to a Verizon store you'll see all of them using it with their iPad
The ones on Amazon have awful reviews and look cheap as hell
Thanks in advance gents!

I bought this one from Amazon UK the other month: http://www.amazon.co.uk/MoKo-Samsun...qid=1397850078&sr=8-1&keywords=moko+10.1+2014
Very pleased with it (Also bought a 'Moko' case for my Note 8.0 and that has a strap and is good too)

Maybe this with the hand strap accessorie? It's a bit of a tank but I bought it because I'm a fumble.

Are you guys worried about the gap??

Are you guys worried about your note 4 having a gap? after hearing about the first phones over seas having a gap between the screen and the metal frame. don't know what to think of it, I wanna get the note on the 17th, but am afraid to pre order the note just because I don't want to open my brand new phone to a gap..

Nope.
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I'm not worried at all about it. I've had at least one spot, in every phone I've owned, that had a gap in it somewhere. If this is what it takes to bond metal to glass, I'm all for it. It actually states the gap is there in the manual, so it's a design feature. Check out this video about the gap.
www.youtube.com/embed/r3mNJCNnARo

If the glass was right up against the metal, the slightest drop would cause the screen to spider crack. The plastic had a little absorption abilities but metal will transfer any vibration directly to the glass...so you should be happy it is there...it shows they were thinking.

Had a pair of note 2's in the family for a couple of years they've worked fine all this time. They both had a gap that you could barely fit a sticky note in. Not really a problem.
