[Review] A Kin Leaves skin for Xperia Z - Xperia Z Accessories

Hello,
Just wanted to check in with skins for my new gadgets (s4 for my gf/htc one for me/xperia z as my secondary phone)- this topic is about a Kin Leaves skin I just received for my Xperia Z. About a week ago I ordered a bunch of skins from them as they were the first ones to add support for s4/One/Z.
1) Shipping- the shipping is free worldwide and they ship inside a cute amazon style envelopes. Every skin is packaged in its own translucent envelope with setup instructions enclosed.
2) Price- somewhere between highly priced zagg products and the chinese ones. Judging by the fact no other vinyl skin supplier could help me at the moment- price was no object for such a small purchase (~8.50 EUR/12 USD).
3) Quality- all great here. Love the semi matte surface finish.
4) Ease of application- I, personally, believe anyone would be able to install one without any problems. This one didn't stick to the surface right away, so positioning was no challenge. After you press the skin against the surface- the adhesive becomes sticky. I have had skins on all my gadgets ever since my old BB in 2008.

Do these come with skins for the front aswell?
And if so, do you find it bothersome to touch the edges of the screen?
I ordered three pairs (buy two, get one free) a few days ago from Intoroskins:
https://www.intoroskins.co.uk/buy-case/custom-skin-for-sony-xperia/65044/
For the Z these are priced at £7.99 (front + back)
I do love the flush surface of the front, so I don't think they will be staying on in the long run.
Just too curious to leave them be I suppose.
Pics will end up in this thread:

HTC Hermes (SPV M3100) offered £15 or FREE -(spare parts/repair)

Firstly, I'd like to apologise if this is the wrong place to post. (Got a banging headache...)
I've my old Hermes (SPV M3100), with no screen and some cosmetic damage, especially at front (see picture - silver strip has come off in 2 pieces).
Included is a quite new glossy black hard plastic case which covers the whole handset but it can be used with it on on - like a clear crystal case for normal candybar phones.
Also, a 3.5mm headphone extension/adapter, original earphones, battery, charger, and 2 leather cases (including original).
It's a bit crappy in condition but it does work but there's no screen...
(I had 2 - the screen on the other, which was in perfect condition broke so I took this one).
See the pic.
start at £15 paypal, for a sponsored walk/run we're doing (proceeds to Red Cross for Burmese and Chinese aid). Is this too high a price? I can promise every penny (after postage) will go to the Red Cross. I'll provide you with proof or whatever if needs be.
I'll stick it on ebay if you want, to prove I'm no bullshitter or conman
Thanks, remember your money's going to a good cause. (Better this than recycling the handset).
PM me for any more info or reply below.
I'll also swap it for a good pair of standard (3.5mm) earphones. (But this'll have to be soon)

Those pouch cases look awesome but has anyone tried them with the Desire Z or G2? How is the fit? I read over in the G2 forums that the OEM G1 case fits the Desire Z very well but its doesn't look half as cool as these!
I love the one in Red.
Fingers crossed it fits well!
I have a white and black on order, total was like 6 dollars US off ebay, will post fit after I receive.
Did you get your cool Android pouch yet?
2-4 bucks each, there are plenty of different styles.
Personally I liked the OEM G1 Pouch the best so I bought 4 of them. Cost under 10 dollars total.

Yes i did, got the cool green one. And it fits the phone perfectly, theres abit of gap in the pouch but it fits the htc phones fine.
What are the insides of the pouch like?
I'm currently using my G1 pouch & the inside is nice & soft while I was looking at another pouch in store at the Carphone Warehouse & the inside of the pouch is coarse, so much that I was worried it would scratch the device.

Accessories for HTC Sensation

This is just a placeholder thread!
I ordered a leather case to replace the one I am using from my Nexus 1. The N1's one was too small but I just got this 10usd case and works for now until better ones come out. I also ordered the kickstand case from body glove and I'll report back on its build quality as well as some pics. I know other members here already bought theirs from the tmo store, but I purchased mine from an online retailer for 18 bux free shipping.
Here are some pics of the leather case with red stitching. Purchased from ebay. Taken from my Sensation

Just got back from lunch and I got my bodyglove case. It is indeed the same you get at the tmo stores, but cheaper somewhat . As for the case, it works, it adds a bit to the phone which I am on the fence on right now. I kinda like it but takes away from the beauty of the phone. I took off the clip and put in the tab so that I would have a flat tab so that I can fit it into the leather case I also have.
I did try the stand. It works but seems a bit flimsy. I just don't like having my phones' face exposed to the elements like door jams and door handles and desk drawers at my office, so that is why I chose to not have that clip on. I don't know...I may want to sell this case in a day....anyone want it for 15 bux shipped?
Anyways here are the pics taken from the sensation. I do not have any pics of the case with the actual case on of course

Digging the texture. Might have to nab one.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
I have this one since day 1. It fits N4 precisely.
The only con is like OP said. The top and bottom open too wide to protect the phone properly.
nice and looks very slim
Guys I bought the Red version.
I notice that there are some sellers on Ebay that ships the case from the US for just 9 dollars, I updated the OP, there is no more reason to buy from China.
The Red color is not a deep red(example: ipod touch red), it is like a washed out red, I bought it for a girl friend so it is OK bc IMO and her opinion looks a bit girly.
I bought this but with the leather cover which doubles up as a stand. It looks identical to this but with the leather bit so it's good to know OP is happy with it.
Shipping is over a month though which is a complete joke, if anyone finds a similar one for similar price (UK) quickly let me know as I can't see one.

[Review] A Kin Leaves skin for Samsung Galaxy S4 with free shipping worldwide for 12$

Hello,
Just wanted to check in with skins for my new gadgets (s4 for my gf/htc one for me/xperia z as my secondary phone)- this topic is about a Kin Leaves skin I just received for my s4. I got my s4 about three weeks ago from a source inside samsung before the retail launch. About a week ago I ordered a skin from them as they were the first ones to add support for s4.
1) Shipping- the shipping is free worldwide and they ship inside a cute amazon style envelopes. Every skin is packaged in its own translucent envelope with setup instructions enclosed.
2) Price- somewhere between highly priced zagg products and the chinese ones. Judging by the fact no other vinyl skin supplier could help me at the moment- price was no object for such a small purchase (~8.50 EUR/12 USD).
3) Quality- all great here. Love the semi matte surface finish.
4) Ease of application- skin for s4 didn't include anything for the front, so putting on just the back was fairly easy and I, personally, believe anyone would be able to install one without any problems. This one didn't stick to the surface right away, so positioning was no challenge. After you press the skin against the surface- the adhesive becomes sticky. I have had skins on all my gadgets ever since my old BB in 2008.
