I messaged dbrand to see if they would be making skins for the z2 series in the future and they basically said no. I'd really prefer to put one on the back of this phone, and was looking at maybe purchasing the original z1 back skin and seeing if it fits.
I think it should as they are moto-mod interchangable so should be skin-interchangable. Anyone have a dbrand skin on their z2 play/force?

I have not done this, but am considering.
I agree with your assessment that the back skin should fit.
I would be interested in a screen-skin of that kind, that would not be the same as Z Play, but gadgetshieldz does not plan this either. Skinomi though does have similar skins for the Z2, but is pricewise only really interesting for US-residents because of the shipping costs.

I'm thinking of getting the Moto Z one for my Z2 Play...I had the Moto Z dbrand for my Moto Z Play and it fit just fine. From what I can tell, the only difference between the Z/Z Play and the Z2 Play is the little gold strip on the back under the pins, it's a different shape (slightly)
I had applied z play skin on my z2 play, I purchased it from a seller on Instagram.
The only flaw that i found in Z Play skin is, there remains a empty circle sort of below the camera because camera modules are different rest all perfect.

The one for the Moto Z fits fine
Only thing I'd day is that the cutout for the gold strip below the contacts is a slightly different shape but this is nothing major.

This is so damn awesome. Doesn't look like a skin at all. Love the way dbrand gave the cutout for mods. All other skin maker give a big cut exposing the mod area, but this one is so precise. I wish i can get this in India.
So, I got dbrand, Z Play camera and back skins.
Can anyone say with certainty, that the cameras on the Z Play and Z2 Play are the same?
Particularly the two small, sensors, to the left of the lens, when looking at the back of the phone. It can seem either was, depending on viewing angle.
ETA, I couldn't be certain that the camera sensors were not covered. The wife had a 1/8" hole punch for crafting. I used this to enlarge the sensor holes, in the vinyl skin and in an pleased with the results.
FYI, the CARBON FIBER skin is thicker than the TITANIUM skin. I think the thicker the better, for the protruding camera protection.
I used A DRAGON Z Play skin on the Otterbox Commuter, in order to add grip to what I thought was a slippery case.
there is an alternative Skinomi, has Z²P carbon fiber skins.

its just like any other skin. I used to have one on my laptop like it. it's a plastic kinda like latex lol.
my eyesight is poor, so I had a hard time lining everything up. the sides are easy, but getting the back on straight was a challenge.
Yes mods work fine with it, even the Gamepad Mod, which is the worst as the whole phone has to fit into it.
my Metal bumper case fits well too,.
it's thin, so I don't think it would interfere with any case.
I don't know how it compares to other phone skin brands, as this is my first one. until I stumbled upon this thread, I had no idea they existed.
i don't like the camera protector, so I left it off (I have a clear one in the mail)
you really must have a blow dryer or heat gun.
For me, it hides the corner damage I told you about. and the black/gold looks very nice. actually it really does look good. just they could've done a better job on volume buttons (see picture)
---------- Post added at 02:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:58 AM ----------
I think every couple of months I'll change to a different color/texture. but I imagine the black on gold will be hard to beat.
This summer I might try the wood.
for the price, it's worth it. And it makes your phone look new again.
use the Coupon if you try it.
BTW, There are full front tempered glass plates for the front on eBay, so you can change the front to White or Black. Refresh your phone!

its better than the slippery metal, but nothing exceptional.
it's a rubbery material so that's a bit less slippery. , and you can feel the texture. but nothing outside a good case (or one of the Mods) will make this wafer thin phone truly gripable.
best Mod compatible case (all mods fit/works except Gamepad mod)
nice buttons, good protection.
looks expensive, paid only $10.00 from US retailer, but it costs around $5.00 from China on eBay.

1. its rather hard, looks not like TPU, hard plastic would i say, but still flex enoth to fit it
2. the grey one is not that shiny, matt i would say
I ordered the black one, and it just arrived today. Bit of a shame I don't have a phone to put in it, because it looks great. It is glossy, but not overboard. Maybe similar to the gloss on the original PS3? But don't quote me on that, I only owned the slim.
My One should arrive tomorrow. Once it does, I'll post up some pictures so you guys can check it out.
As far as Rock cases go though, I had one for my One X and I really liked it. I would def recommend you guys check them out. Or also Capdase. I just got a white case from them today as well. Both very nice. One is glossy, one is matte.
Thanks! Looking forward to the pics

Do you order straight from their website ? I had their case for my s3 and loved it but then a whole ton of knockoffs started coming out.
So my phone arrived, and I had it in the Rock case within about 5 minutes. I'm in Korea for the day, so I'm trying it out. So far: really like it. The case fits like a glove. Doesn't snap on really tight like some, but there is absolutely no movement. I actually prefer this to the ones that make you think you are going to break your phone putting on/taking it off. The black on black looks so good! It's super thin, so the phone shape is maintained. It also has a very slight lip around the edges on the front so you can put it down on it's face, if you want.
The negatives: the black is a fingerprint magnet. I guess that's why they bundled a cloth in the package. The other is I am afraid I'm gonna drop my phone and it will break. I attribute the fear to having just got the phone, as well as being pretty hungover . If I were to drop the phone, the case wouldn't do much to protect it. It's more like a scratch guard.
Anyway, so far I really like it. I bet the coloured ones on the black would look ridiculous good. I'll add pictures when I get some time.

It arrived yesterday and I've been gathering my thoughts on this case. First of all, if you did order this, expect it to be delivered within 20 days or so. Mine took a long time.
This case/bumper feels very rigid and grippy despite the shiny borders that clamps down the sides of the phones. As you can see, I bought the yellow version to differentiate my phone a bit in spite of the boring black phone. The buttons feel pretty solid and aren't mushy as some might be worried. The case seems to offer decent protection too, and should aid against minor bumps or drops. My only complaint was that it does make the phone a bit wider and taller than other cases I have. I have an old blue TPU case that I bought a long time ago, and it is ever so slightly taller and wider in comparison. Most shouldn't notice the difference though, I just have an eye for those niggling details.
Overall, I'd give the case a 9/10. I think it's superbly solid for the price and I love the colors of the black and yellow that it provides my phone.
Also, sorry for the bad photos. I didn't realize how bad my old digital camera had gotten.
Bought one just now. This will be my fifth case for Moto G

Hi although the official grip cover looks cool on the device and doesnt add extra thickness to the device.. I am not very confident about how well it would protect the device..hence I have been thinking about getting a Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit Case for the phone. Any of you who have been using the Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit Case kindly provide some feedback..how thick does it make the phone ? Does it really protect the phone well ?

You're asking a question and in the sentence after that you're answering your own question assuming something.
Most of these things have no problem with water.
Lol.. I was just thinking aloud. I wouldnt have asked if I didnt want clarification. Cause you know.. Usually when you have real wood or leather products you dont usually submerge them in water. Droplets I can see it handling no problem but I just had the thought come across my mind before I drop ~$35 on a back which could potentially get ruined after one instance of trying to show off the novelty of our water resistant phones.

Hmm I see, well I guess it depends what the manufacturer uses, some use real wood and some just use a texture to make it look like real wood, but in the end it would just be plastic or some sort.
Has anyone had the pleasure of ordering one of the skins from this company yet? I just recently got my dbrand skins and they were not what I was expecting. Still very slippery and the material is very unsatisfying. Can anyone clarify the feeling/quality of the skins from OP's company?
leather back
I have the black leather back on my white Z3 compact. It looks and feels like leather, not at all like DBrandz (which I also have). It has improved the grip and texture so much that I don't use a case if I have a lanyard attached. It's much thicker than any of the other skins which are plastic rather than leather, although at a push you can still add a case for extra protection on those occasions when it's needed without removing the back.
It was expensive to buy, and I paid an extra £18 to get it through UK customs but this single item has vastly improved the economics of the Z3 for me, which until now has been the single most disappointing thing with my Z3.
---------- Post added at 03:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:45 PM ----------
Just as an after thought, I wouldn't go swimming or take it in the shower with this back on as I suspect it's leather, but would be fine out in a bit of rain.
Also for those wondering about the logo 'colors' it's just printed on and would be easy enough to remove or even cover over with a black felt tip pen.
10/10 for me.

Upstate: Received on Sunday from Amazon. I'm happy with this case. It does what I wanted, which was protect the front and rear glass areas from contacting surfaces when I put the device down. The raised rubberized black lines keep the phone up away from the clear cover. The holes in the clear cover for USB, mic, stereo jack (bottom), and whatever the tiny hole next to the camera is on the back all line up perfectly. I like the bumpers on the corners too. Hopefully I won't have reason to test them, but they look capable. :good:
Okay so now I'm pissed because my fave case manufacturer UAG came out with a new model for my phone just days after I settled on something less.

I also picked up this case. It is quite good, nice and slim with solid side grips. Having a clear back allows my Skinnova skin to show through which is cool. It fits tightly around the phone and feels quite sturdy. I'd definitely recommend this if you're looking for something close to a bumper case. I think this might be as close as we're going to get for this device.
i didnt receive my g5+ yet but i found this and i think it looks awesome.

Wow, you found one! This might be the very first bumper case for the Moto G5 Plus. I think I might order it and see how it looks.

Will do! I just ordered it yesterday, the total came out to around $20 USD. It looks like they 3D print the cases individually, so it won't be shipping out until Aug 31st.
I just got the bumper case from Shapeways today. First impressions - it's just ok, nothing spectacular. It feels like a $5 -10 bumper case, not a $20 one. The fit is a bit loose and not as sung as I would like. The grip is really solid though, and I like the texture. Overall I would say this bumper case isn't worth the money. But if you REALLY want a slim case, I would say go for it. I'm not sure if we'll ever get a different bumper case for this phone, so this might be your only option (at least right now).
