Skinomi Skin Protector

Hey guys. My Nexus is on its way to me, will be here soon. I've been browsing the Galaxy Nexus forums, trying to get a hold of the scene before I actually get my device.
Besides ROMs and what not, the most important thing for me is to protect the device. Also, I wasn't sure if this should go here or in the Q&A forum - if I got it wrong, I apologize.
Anyway,
Has anyone used this? I'm not talking about the Carbon Fiber skin, I'm talking about their Clear Skin Protector.
I was thinking of getting this and pairing it with the Rearth Ringke SLIM case.
Anyone out there used the Skinomi or has had previous experience with them? Any thoughts on combining their Skin protector with the Ringke?

Not sure about that screen protector, but ~17 users have it on this forum so they should be able to help.
Get it from amazon if you do decide to buy it, it's much cheaper there.
Regarding the case, this thread may be of use to you (if you have not read it already for more info)

I applied a tech skin on Friday and have been really happy. It took about 12 or so hours for all the bubbles to go away but it looks really good now, the cutouts are the perfect size and it covers the entire face of the device. but I bought mine from amazon for like 3 bucks for mine, looks like they've gone back up to 7
either way I'm very happy, especially now that they went back up cause I got 2 at 3 bucks.

First of all, thanks!

Yup, I read the thread regarding the protectors and the thread regarding the case. I'm pretty sure about the case, however when it comes to the Skinomi I'm not talking about just their screen protector - their skin protector is something you put all over the phone, with cut outs to the battery etc. Basically, like their carbon fiber skin, but transparent. I also really want to buy it from Amazon, but for some reason its not up there.

Really good to know. However, while their screen protector should theoretically provide a proper idea, I'm looking specifically at their phone skin - that is, there are cut outs for the front and back. I also really want to buy it from Amazon but for some reason it's not there. Thanks!

I loooove this screen protector. Bought one on amazon to replace the crap that otter box shipped with the commuter. Definately worth every penny. Covers entire front and fits snugly in my case .

Some Pictures :]

The Skinomi front screen protector, assuming that it's the same one that comes with the Carbon one, is really nice so far. The only thing id recommend, is that you wrap the microfiber cloth around that squeegee before you scrape the bubbles out. That crappy piece of plastic they send, has sharp edges, and will scratch the heck out of your screen protector. Really, like a few hours after I put it on, it's hard to tell it's even on there.

I second the microfiber comment above.

The quality of the plastic is superior. Once I bought one for my Galaxy Nexus I've got one for every phone since then. They are the best TPU brand for phones.
You won't regret it. It's cheap too!

My SII Skyrocket Diztronic case ended up being my favorite of the various cases I tried.
Not at all flashy. Nothing special about it.
It just "works" properly. And doesn't get beat up like cheaper cases do.
And I like that they are finally doing cutouts for BOTH the volume & power unlike on my last case.
I hate anything covering the power or volume buttons. Though some folks do like that.

I've used these cases for 2 years on Captivate, Infuse, Galaxy Nexus and Note. They're grippy, durable and fit perfectly. I just ordered one for my S3. Thanks for the heads-up.

I already have Rock Case, 4 Cruzerlite TPU cases... and a Leather pouch... Do I need/want one more....?

I have a Cruzelite...definitely sub par to the Diztronic cases I've had in the past and I'm sure it will be the same with the new one I have on the way.

cruzerlite is garbage. i sent it in for a refund. the cut outs dont even line up with the ports correctly lol

Sorry for the delay in getting our S III cases up guys, I was out of town and had an employee put them up. Unfortunately she accidentally set the start selling date as July 6th so the pages never went live. I said didn't you realize we weren't getting any orders?! We sent inventory to Amazon on Friday so Prime shipping options should be available either Tuesday or Wednesday.
We did include a screen protector with this release made of Japanese film. When we first started including screen protectors we were using a Korean film, which is slightly better than Chinese but still had some rainbowing and purpling. These Japanese based ones are great, very good clarity. Even though including them almost doubles our costs we've kept our prices the same for the time being. Thanks everyone for your continued support!

The company resides and manufactures in America (Madison, WI, near me!!). The customer service is absolutely OUTSTANDING. You basically end up talking to a real person who is dead set on making sure you're satisfied.
And TPU, in general, is perfect for me. Thin, adds a little grip but doesn't stick in pockets.

cldn't agree more, they are indeed bad. Just ordered Diztronic for my S III . Loved it on my Nexus , was waiting for a week for it to be available in the meanwhile i thought i would try cruzerlite . Apart from the fit, i dint like the looks of it too, esp that i wanted something with a plain back matte finish . Diztronic was the perfect fit . Love it Love it!!!

Actually they are in Madison, but my EVO 4G LTE Diz TPU's specifically stated Manufactured in China.
I put them in a bowl of water and they don't sink so I'd guess they aren't full of lead.
The water did turn green and looked like antifreeze though (just kidding!)

We are in Madison, WI but unfortunately we have our cases made in China for the time being. I'm looking at potentially having them made in Akron, OH but it's not set in stone at this point. If anyone has any contacts with US based factories that can manufacturer TPU cases feel free to contact me. For now we are using the same lingo everyone else uses, "Designed in ___ Manufactured in China". Our screen protectors however are manufactured in Japan. Some of you should be receiving your GS III cases today, I know at least one XDA member received theirs on Saturday as they were in Wisconsin. I'm looking forward to seeing some feedback as my GS III from Sprint hasn't arrived yet!

It doesn't have a cutout for the camera, as in my opinion I'd rather have it covered so it's protected. If someone can show me an example of diminished picture quality because of it I may be swayed to make a cutout for it in the future. As far as going all the way to the edge of the glass, from what I understand it's not possible to do so on the GS III because of the way the glass tapers on the edges, so we made the screen protector in the same way as our One X screen protector. It essentially covers the flat part of the glass. You could probably go all the way to the edge with a wet adhesive based screen protector, but with a static type screen protector they would just peel up.

Great response. Its great to have good interraction with the manufacture and the end user. That makes for the best experience in both parties. Thank you.

Anyone order a quicksand case?

And have experience with these?

So cheap but not sure of quality.

For 4 bucks how can you go wrong.

I had one on my HTC One and I loved it. Great feel in the hand and almost nothing added to the phone bulk or weight wise. Just don't expect to protect much in the way of drops.

Well I'm a sucker for marketing so I was wondering if I should wait for a Meifeng branded one or whatnot.

Just an FYI, there are several sellers on eBay with this case. I just ordered from the link below. $3.98 delivered. The one in the OP is $3.99 + $0.99 shipping. I know, it's only a dollar but hey...

I remember a recent news about street selling case vendors in china.
The cases have funny smell at first use due to cancer causing chemical agents in the material used to make the case.

Probably a shill.

Does not look that good...instead of that I would prefer to take my N5 naked.....

For 4 bucks, I'll pick one up too. I've never had a rough feeling case like this one on any phones before so may as well try it.

Had this on the nexus 4 and I loved it. Of course, I got it simply for scratches and not for drop protection although it probably did help a bit. I've already ordered this for nexus5.

I ordered one of these last week. Who knows when it'll come in. I'll check back here when it does though. I think I ordered a gray one but I'm not sure - I bought 4 or 5 cases on eBay and kinda forget which ones I got.

For those that have gotten these type of cases before; are the insides of the cases the same sand feel as the outside? I am afraid that the inside would scratch away the matte coating of the phone.

It is the same as the outside though it's not as rough as you think it is. IMO it won't scratch off the matte coating.

One's on the way eventually. Looked softer then the Nillkin patterned case.

Judging by how flexible the case is in this picture, it looks like it's made out of some TPU-like material rather than the hard plastic that other slim cases are made out of. So I don't think scratching will be a problem.

I had a quicksand on my n4 and it was not flexible at all, we'll see when my n5 version comes in.

Thanks for the plug OP. I'll try these as well.
Love these type cases. But they are not all created equally. Had the best Rock quicksand one my S3. It was very good. Have a Meifeng on my N4 and it is just as good. Rocking a Bear Motion quicksand type on my S4 and it is solid as well. But I've tried some knock offs until I found the good ones and found that those, while they had the feel, were very flimsy and would crack.
The problem I've found is that I haven't found one mfg that supports multiple phones. None of those that I named had a case for any of the phones except the one I already had it on. =-O

Got mine today, black version. Looks great on N5, fits like a glove but still easy enough to get it off and it doesn't add much bulk at all. Tiny lips around edges, won't protect against drop but good enough if you place screen face down. Material is pretty grippy, sandy texture doesn't scratch N5 soft touch plastic.
I've a gray version by bear motion for HTC One, but bought this one on eBay because BM isn't making one for N5.

MediaDevil Artisan Pouch Review

When I bought my nexus 5 I wanted a pouch, but really didn't find any to my liking . Last week I decided re-search and found a couple real good pouches, but really none what I had in mind. Then I came across a MediaDevil Artisan pouch, didn't really know what to think, like if it was going to be a cheap knock off or bad quality. As I looked into it I found out that this company makes very high quality pouches that I was never aware of. I decided to give it a shot based on amazing reviews. It came in a nice black gift like box and very professionally packaged . Has full grain leather with red stitching ( believe it comes in different colors), the phone fits perfectly in the pouch nice and snug. Not to tight and not to loose. It has micro fiber feel inside of it so when you slip you're phone it cleans the smudges and fingerprints. I would recommend this pouch to anyone who wants a nice look to there phone.
This is my first review so it might not detailed or organized in any way.

Thank you very much for this review dia_naji!
On your pictures I see you have the black with red stitching case, and inside you have a black phone?
On Media Devil's webpage it says that the black phone is different size to the white or red, therefore they sell cases for black and cases for white/red. And for the black phone there's only one option, grey with pink stitches, not my cup of tea. The case you show on your pictures is meant to be for the white/red phone only. When I first saw this I was sceptical at them, because both phones are the same size, only thing different is the plastic texture.
Can you or anyone else on this thread confirm that you're using a black case with a black phone? Despite the big red warning on Media Devil's website: http://mediadevil.com/us/artisanpouch-leather-pouch-case-google-nexus-5-by-lg.html
Thanks!

the difference, as I've been told by their employee, is the the material used inside, because of the texture difference and the material of the pull-out ribbon, as well as the size of the pull-out knob.

I thought it would be something like that....
My question remains, is anyone using the black case with a black phone? If so, any downfalls?

I asked Mediadevil about the difference between black and white/red nexus 5
Hi Marius,
I hope you are well and thanks for getting in touch.
The black and white Nexus 5 have a slightly different curvature, and as our cases are designed to fit very snugly to the device itself, this means that a black Nexus 5 will not fit into a case designed for a white Nexus 5. In addition, the black Nexus 5 has a soft-touch back as opposed to the harder plastic back of the white Nexus 5, which adds friction when it is being inserted and removed from the case, and we have also had to take this into consideration when designing a case for the black Nexus 5.
At the moment we are completely sold out of all colour combinations for the black Nexus 5 except for the slate/pink option, however we do have new cases in production, which should be available by the middle of March. I'm afraid I don't have a definite release date at the moment, however please feel free to get back in touch in a week or so, as we should be able to give you an update then!

Thanks very much for sharing this! Now that makes more sense. I think I'd rather wait for 2 or 3 weeks. I'll buy a cheap neoprene pouch case in the meanwhile.

I'm very interested in this leather pouch. But is this compatible with a tempered glass screen protector (0,30mm) AND with the toastMade (real wood) skin
I hope the pouch is not too tight for this? Or will it stretch over time? And what must I choose? Black or white/red version of the pouch, because Mediadevil said there is difference in size and material they use, but this is wood material so....???

Sorry to bump an old thread. I'm looking at this case for a Black Nexus 5.
Does this pouch cause the soft touch back to wear out from constant friction from inserting and removing the phone from the pouch? Especially near the bottom where the pull tab makes contact.
I had a similar type pouch for the Galaxy Nexus, and that worked fine for the plastic material on the phone. But seeing the Nexus 5 has a soft touch back I can see the friction causing wear. My Lenovo ThinkPad had a similar annoying issue as I found the rubberish soft finish was coming off from the sleeve I had it in.

Bump! Still would love to hear feedback from owners of this case. Just got my Nexus 5 and I'm looking for a nice pouch!

Well I have had mine for almost 3 weeks after reading this thread. I LOVE it. I got the gray/blue color and it looks great with my white n5. I use it hard and it has shown next to no wear in the 3 weeks I've had it. It is still as tight as the day I got it and wouldn't be able to be pulled out on it's own without the pull strap. Time will tell. Definitely no extra room for a TPU or similar case.
Side note: As pictured below, you can see one of the stitches wasn't tied off correctly and came undone just two days after using it. I think I curbed the unraveling by melting the end of the thread with a lighter. It hasn't moved since. I emailed Mediadevil through Amazon.com (where I made the purchase) and they had a new one out to me next day. Excellent customer service.
5 out of 5 stars would recommend to anyone.

ultimate shield glass screen protectors

I have recently purchased a ultimate shield glass screen protector that is case friendly from eBay for £10.99
The first 1 I was sent fitted perfect but would not stick to my phone so the company sent me another.
The second 1 stuck well but let dirt through the sides.
So they asked me to wait another week to try a upgraded version so I did and that arrived today. Although the sides are now black (previously clear) which fixed the dirt entering the side of the phone but none the top edges stick at all and there is far to much space between the phone screen and the glass so there's a clicking noise all the time when in use.
So I of course contacted the company again as I payed £10.99 and still my phone is not protected so I do expect a refund regardless to there help sending more out as they are not fit for purpose, I am thankful for them trying.
So the last conversation I had with them regarding a refund was they have yet another version of the protector they are sending out to me today to try so I shell receive that tomorrow hopefully and if it fits well I will upload pictures ect..
The bottom line is atm the ultimate shields glass screen protectors do not yet work for our devices so you may won't to keep clear for now if you have thought about buying 1.

Any updates please?

New 1 just arrived. I will be installing shortly. This 1 is described very different as a 3d silk printed / black

Just fitted this screen protector and it is the best I've had to date. It fits perfect! There is deffienetly no space between the glass. It fits perfect around the phone. The glue is much stronger than any previous protectors. The curve seems more of a curve than previous but I still am able to use my cafele case without any uplifting.
I'm extremely happy with this protector and deffienetly worth the £10.99!
I'm not sure what cases this will work with as I only have 2 slim cases and originally it's advertised as a case friendly protector so it should fit a variety of cases as there is a gap at the top and rear for the case bumber access. I will try and upload a picture of it fitted later today when I have access to a camera.
Ultimate shields seem to be a good company and will help you with any issues. I would recommend buying this version and if you was to go ahead and buy this model I would message them first and tell them you want the new version vimto25 from xda was sent in case you receive old stock.

Is it "Case Friendly" ?

I think it's a 50/50 situation. The first few I had of them was classed as case friendly and I believe they was very case friendly but as I stated they had issues.
This new 1 looks slightly less case friendly but I have a case on it and it fits to a T so I think it needs testing with different cases that I do not have. It has gaps around the top and bottom and the sides for a case to fit with a open top which I prefere.
I've just received a message from the seller after giving them my feedback. They have said it's not yet in production I am the first to of tried this. But they assured me if you message them with my xda username you will be send this new design of there's.
I hope someone with a few cases purchases this and gives there feedback on what cases fit and what cases don't.

Ordered one today and they are send me a development unit, thank you!
Just need to get the phone now....

Do you have any cases?
Well you've done it the right way a protector should always be brought before the phone arrives in my opinion ?

I have ordered the Nillkin Frosted Shield case based on the positive reviews in the other thread. Phone arrives tomorrow, and screen protector is shipping today so hopefully...... I always like to fit the screen protector straight away while the phone is new.

By the looks of that case the screen protector should fit fine

That was the plan ?

Just bought one of these and it fits perfectly with a uag plasma case. Thanks for the heads up

None as yet. Had it for 24 hours and all is good. Only issue seems to be its a fingerprint magnet

How's the glass protector holding up? Thinking of ordering one soon

Installed mine yesterday and it's kick ass. No reason to hesitate. Buy this.

Will do....Did you message the seller asking for the 3d silk printed / black one?

Is this the link to the Ultimate Shield Glass Screen Protector? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ultimate-...-Plus-Black-/142348224139?hash=item21249d868b
If so then this guy doesn't ship to the United States :/
