I had recently bought galaxy iphone and I had installed white iphone 4 skin cover. This skin cover provides protection to my device from scratches and any other sort of damage.
Iphone 4 skin cover
is there a point to this thread?
Yup, apparently he bought the Iphone 4 skin cover. It covers his phone and protects it from damage.

Yep, already ordered.
Guess I have to buy this phone now lol
To my fellow UK buyers, the total protection is £7.23 ish after international postage and currency conversion. (Via PayPal)

Thanks for this, wasn't going to have a cover but the feel a little worried about the glass on the back
How's the overall quality of their body protectors and screen protector? Orange peel, screen degradation, etc? I'm think of picking up their whole kit and just a bumper for my N4

What i dont like about this brand is that you use liquid soap to apply them wth, you put liquid soap on your device´s screen? that can´t be right
Do they ship to europe?
Yeah I never understood the soap thing.I still have the spray from my zagg so I'm just gonna use that

You don't actually put soap on your phone, its in the water then rinsed out.
Even though you can't see the soup once rinsed out,
It makes the water have a slight oily substance which helps to cure the skin and helps to apply it.

Ima order one. Never used this brand but it will have to do .

Do these skins cover it all? With the glass I need it on both glass surfaces at minimum. I would also like the sides covered as well. Does this company or any other cover that? Soft touch is great but I baby my devices. Having that extra bit of protection and cushion could mean the difference between getting a crack or not in a small fall.

Fit is nice. But After a while the screen starts the crater and look crappy.

I never had issues with BSE. I tried almost all the other types of skins but I always seem to find myself coming back to their product.

Can you elaborate more? , I don't fully understand
, what do you mean you rinse the water, I know what rinse is but rinsing the water makes no sense to me, sorry English is not my main language
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
What he means is that soap is not directly applied to the phone. It is diluted in water then the solution is sprayed to the skin. The amount of soap needed is very small. It is just enough to make the solution slippery so that when the skin is applied, you can slide it over the device for adjustment.

BSE is good quality, but it has orange peel effects like Zagg and others. I'd suggest something like XO Skins or Skinomi for the screen, as they don't have that problem.
Just ordered one. I use BSE on my HOX and it's fantastic, minimal orange peel effect and feels smooth to the touch. Much better than Zagg or Skinomi imo, I've not tried XO.
Xo is a good company... fast shipping etc but their skins are very rubbery. I'd rather have a little orange peel than have my finger stick. I had that on my nexus 7 and even after a couple months it didn't go away.
I ordered from bse but have never used them before. They claim to have changed their film for 2012 to make it feel better, apply easier, etc. How is their fit?

EDIT: it isn't so thin. I think its thinner then the otter box, (I have it) but not many cases are thin for this phone. If you find one let me know XD.

Best? not even close... but I bought a case similar to this one about two years ago. Its saved my phone several times. The part that clips on the keyboard/battery half does not stay on anymore though. The 4 nubs are worn out and don't hold it. The screen part is what I was most worried about though and it still holds tight.
I was planning to go caseless after having aluminum cases on most of my previous phones until I dropped my epic just right and shattered the screen. I replaced the screen assembly and decided to get a case for it. I have went without a screen protector and have not had a single scratch. Gorilla Glass is something I'll be looking for on future phones for sure.

Not a fan. The silicone is flimsy and our doesn't really cover the lip of the phone that well. Horrible case imo

It's a minimal dual layer, I have one for my gs3, as well as an otterbox. The otterbox has more protection but you gain mass and heft. I like the incipio because it is slim but still offers good protection
I actually had this one on my phone and was paying for it in the store but I scrubbed the purchase before I could even check out. I think it looks really nice and will probably give good drop protection, but the flimsy silicone would drive me crazy. When you push the side buttons the silicone would buckle. The silicone in the top and bottom didn't fit snugly. JMO. Like I said I looked the way it looked. It was the brushed aluminum dual pro shine with black silicone. Just not snug enough of a fit for me.

I saved my phone from a 6 ft fall right onto the hard floor.I guess some people just dont know cases.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
I have had this case on my S4 since I got the phone thru verizon, about 10 days . Black on black. I wanted a slim case with decent drop protection. This was a good compromise. The soft inner core does over lap on to the front of the screen a bit, wich is good as I can lay the phone face down without damaging the screen. The soft rubber inner core does attract lint where it is exposed, but I expected that.
so far I am happy with the case. But, I have not dropped it .....yet...:laugh:

For those that go naked (no case), have you gotten any scratches on the fake aluminum edges?
I'd like to use no case and have a screen protector & back skin but worried about scratches on the edges.

I bought one for my S3, those things are so cheap and crappy I wasted my money. However I bought a nice from Draco Designs ( which wasn't cheap) but definitely quality. FYI I emailed them this morning and they replied that one for the S4 will be available next week.
So far I have had no case on my phone (about a month) and there are no scratches. I have only a "Just Like Glass" screen protector
This is what I just put on mine.
search B00BMIG54O on amazon
$14.95 ArmorSuit MilitaryShield - Samsung Galaxy S4 Screen Protector Shield Ultra Clear + Black Carbon Fiber Film Protector
Skin provides nice traction as opposed to stock slick back cover. Edge skins included.
The sides scratch very easily! I highly recommend some type of protection if you intend on keeping your device in mint condition!
Its actually nice metal on the s4 so not the plastic coating like on the s3

Not the metal trim ring around the phone itself, but the chrome bezel that's bordering the display has scratched fairly easily on both mine and my wife's with some minor drops. I definitely wish I would've got a case for outings sooner.
The aluminum trim around the outside of the phone however has remained scratch free on both.
Mine has a small ding in it, and I don't ever recall really dropping it. It does bother me though, and I'm certain I had to have dropped it at some point, as it's on the bottom.

I second the Neo Hybrid. I bought my S4 about a week ago (changed from the OG note) and spigen is completely wrapping it with the screen protector and the Neo since day 3 (had to order the case lol). it doesn't add too much bulk, it levels out the back so your phone isn't resting on your camera when you set it down and it provides a lip so you can set it face down and won't even touch the screen protector and for a total of $30 my phone is completely covered and not too much bulk added.
Also NFC works and rumor has it wireless charging should work too.
Its the best case I have purchased, Im about to buy the Glass Screens from Spigen.
I skipped the glas.t and went to their Ultra crystal screen protector. Over in the i717 section there's a HUGE thread going over the Glas.t and they started out awesome but the later posts say that they're getting peeling up after a couple months and was probably due to a change in the adhesive. Plus with the extra thickness of the glas.t the home button would be recessed, with the Ultra crystal the button is level with the screen protector. And at $7 for the ultra clear you get 2 and MUCH easier to apply.
Been completely naked on mine for about a month. No scratches on the glass, chrome bezel, faux metal ring around the outside, or battery cover. I don't drop my phone, haven't ever shattered a screen in 5 years of having a smart phone. I keep it alone in a pocket, and that's it. All my phones have been treated this way. The One X looked like it went to hell and back after a few months, but my iPhones, Captivate, S II, and Note II all survived really well. My wife is not so gentle, just throws it in her purse. So she has a flip case on my old Note II she is now using.
The only place I have seen any of these phones show wear is on the back when they rub when placed flat. On the S II it was the lip below the battery door. On the S 4 it seems to be the bottom lip of the chrome around the camera lens. That small section is scuffed. Otherwise this naked phone is pristine after a month of use.

Hello, I have a Nexus 5 black version.
The phone is great but I have scratches in the rubber material. Can I repair it? I tried to paint the spot with matte black but I can see the difference.
Thank you.
You can't repair it. But you can cover it with a skin...

Anyone know if you can just rub the rubber coat off? I might consider that in the future if my N5 gets scratched up pretty bad.

You can always buy a brand new "OEM" back cover for about $30. Check online and see.
