The white N5 mockups look so good! Anyone tried using a dbrand or SlickWraps white front vinyl? Does the edge of the vinyl feel rough to the hand? And how well does it make the phone look white? Also, has anyone tried combining it with a display only screen protector? Does it make the skin and display seamless?
If someone can post any pics, that would be awesome!
TIA

So I was thinking about a way to remove the branding so that we could have sexy, logoless captivates like seen in the youtube videos. Would it be possible to create a screen protector that is black, except with a clear transparent windows where the screen would be? Take this black decal sticker for example Logoless Decal The faceplate decal in this setup does not protect the screen, as the window is cutout where the decal goes over the screen. Does anyone know of a company that could do something like that? High quality screen protector that is mostly black but with a transparent middle?
That would be great. I'd definitely dish out $4.99 for it
I might buy one, just for the front panel. I already have a body guardz setup, but I bet I might be able to place the front over it.

That is what I did, and it fit very well, but it also looked very tacky. That is why I was wondering if it would be possible to make it as one piece. Seems like a solid idea, but I don't of any place that can do it.
In my quest to turn my pebble blue phone black without adding any bulk I ordered a black colored screen protector from Mercury. I don't have any complaints about the coverage or quality of the protector, but the black isn't truly black. It has little white sparkles all over it that makes it look glittery. Does anyone know where I can get a truly black colored screen protector ?

Oh that's nice. I already have a carbon fiber skin on the back so that front and button sticker would be nice to match it.

yes, but the quality isn't as good as the mercury, it doesn't cover the edge, and the top and bottm of the home key and speaker are not covered.

sounds like a common plan. the advantage of the CF vinyl is that it doesn't have to EXACTLY match anything, due to the texture. now that i have a red draco bumper, i am considering going that route too.

They are nice, but they dont cover the entire screen. They just cover the bezel around the visible screen realestate.
If your fine with that, you might want to check out decalgirl aswell. Many different styles aswell as plain color options available in a gloss or matte finish. You can also contact to design your own custom print.
Hey guys I'm looking if there's a screen protector that covers just the screen. I'm looking to order a matte black decal to cover the front of the phone around the screen to match my black UAG case (favorite case so far btw, its amazing!!! If you havent tried it your really should. 8th case is the charm? Lol). But right now I have the spigen curved screen protector on and I still want one when I put the from decal on just wondering what you guys would recommend. I'm a little hesitant to put a screen protector over the skin or vice versa. Or is there any skins that include a screen protector??
PS the curved screen protector works awesome with this case. You can't even tell there's one on there and there is no bubbling or edges being pushed up. I will post more about this in the UAG case forum when I get a chance to get some pics and stuff.

Best I can think of would be getting a universal screen protector. Downfall is they aren't going to be as good as the name brand protectors, but pretty much like the cheap generic china made protectors you get off of ebay.
Upside is they usually come with multiple (3-5) sheets that you can cut out your self. Otherwise I was unable to find exactly what your looking for (nor heard of any). Maybe someone else has though, wait and see.

dont know if bestskinsever will ship to the uk, but u can ask. His matte body skin is nice. Full matte skin , sides are seperate from the back but the screen is a glossy wet apply screen.
good skins. cant even tell its on with the silver Ones. With the black Ones it doesnt look quite right at first. kindda cloudy, but give it a day or 2 to set and it looks awesome. Even gives a realy nice circular cut protector for the camera lense.

I use the Full Body Matte from Phantom Skinz. I've been using them for my last 3 phones. They are awesome!
Just got my 2 Bestskins ever Total Body Skin in. I ordered 1 with matte body and 1 glossy. Anyone have a pic of an One with one of the 2 skins? I'm not sure which one to decide to go one. Ordered from their website deliveru to The Netherlands. Ordered on 28th of Maym they have fast shipping and think to the UK would be no problem too.

no pics atm because im using a leather-look vinyl, but I personally like the matte better mainly because the device is already matte so it really doesn't look like you've anything on it. Glossy does provide far more grip tho.
Take your time applying. The corners will not stick at first. Just squeegee out the water as best you can n let the corners air out abit then they'll start to stick.
Alot of people get frustrated when rounded edges and corners dont stick and due to lack of patience can ruin a perfect good install on these type of protectors.
Had a hard time trying to get a precise fit around the camera, flash and the FPS at the same time.
I've made a quick album on Google Photos for your enjoyment. What do you think of the combo, Clearly White, matte black back and matte white glass in the Pixel 2?

I like that setup. it looks good. If I didn't want the magnet for the car mount so bad I'd probably do something similar but alas for the metal plate have to use the case.. lol

It's beautiful.
I've ordered the "Dragon" skin, because I only care about grip, if that skin is grippy enough, I'll stop using the Ringke Fusion case. Phone size is beautiful without cases, but so damn slippery to use.
Looks great! I have the opposite (black phone, white body sticker, black glass sticker).
Did you find it difficult to get the skin to adhere to the glass? I bought a single piece dbrand and could not get it to stay on the glass portion... wondering if I had a bad skin, oily glass, or something else...

The matte white skin from dbrand is a touch glossy. Not as matte as the black one.
So it's actually more slippery than a naked Just Black.
I would say the matte black skin provides better grip than the white one.
I installed a Dragon Skin. So far looks good and grip is better than naked. Let's see if I'm feeling confident with it...if not I'll put back the horrible case!
