Silver bezel material??? - LG Optimus 4X HD

Could someone tell me what is material of 4x silver bezel? It is steel, metal or just schome plastic? I expected it is metal but it's seem plastic. Flashship phone of LG with all is plastic .

Seems that it isn't steel but look at samsung flagship is it plastic at all ? Quality of LG 4x is outstanding in my opinion 10/10.

Yeah, I agree with you. Design of 4x is much much better and manly than S3 (IMO). But I still hope its bezel is metal. Korean phone is almost plastic.

Got the phone. And I kinda hate those silver metal lines. And the gs3 metal section looks way way better. That's one thing I hate about the 4 x

Bumpers for corners?

I don't know if anyone else is thinking the same but these things are built like bricks . I would just like some stylish colored bumpers for the corners. Kind of like the ones for the iPhone. I seen ssomeone made clay ones for an iPhone but I wonder if anyone is gonna try to produce them?

Good idea, I'd buy one. I have a bumper type case for my Galaxy Nexus and love it.
maybe there is a case out there that you can cut into a bumber case. i did this with the galaxy nexus incipio neo hybrid and it works and looks perfect.
Yah. Even if I made em out of rubbery clay. An you used carpet adhesive. I wonder.

Loving this one too. If my final decision is the note 2 this will be mine.

They have it at T-Mobile stores. Bought it and returned it a week later. The elastic strap that holds the front closed stretched out really quick and after that the front cover didn't align correctly causing it to look pretty crappy.

Looks like cheap material but really like the idea, this is what the smart case should have been (like in that MOD thread where they take the flip cover and add a TPU to it); esp like the stand feature
Stupid case, bad execution.

terrible case - the cover is connected with a floppy piece of elastic fabric, the elastic band to hold the cover is stiff and overall it feels like it triples the thickness of the phone rather than doublet it... pass..
purchased this at t-mobile, returned it. The strap was the deal breaker for me.
Cant you just cut the strap off?

This actually look not so bad. Ive seen worse credit card hauling leather wallet/case. Imma snag one from local tmobile tommorow if they have it.

Any skins that just covers the back? (looking for brushed steel)

Skintomi has a skin but they're full body and $20. I just want the one for the back cover as I'm looking to go with an aluminum bumper case and I'm not a fan of the shiny back side.
Full body from zagg is frosty but still semi transparent. It gives texture fill and phone is not do slippery.

would prefer something non transparent. but i'll check out zagg. are they still making their on screen display protectors with that orange peel look and tacky feel?
After only 5 days there is slightly "orange peel" look. About "tackiness" I prefer it's feel with stylus, it is more like real paper.

Link?
I'm intrigued now
.... I have to return some videotapes....
Why not just buy replacement back covers from ebay? Most of them have the brushed steel look and in different colors.
I had a gelaskin on my Gnex. Thy have some great designs but you can also use your own image. Might also be an option although an expensive one.

You could buy 3M vinyl wrap? I used it for covering my Samsung tpu case since I hated getting finger prints on shiny back. One I used has steel brush effect and came out pretty nice.
3M 1080 BRUSHED BLACK METALLIC VINYL CAR WRAP - 12" x 60" (1ftx5ft)
That's the one I purchased for $10 and that's enough to cover your device lifetime for fraction of cost!

Obliq screen protector

Just got this in from Amazon. Fits perfect with the tech 21 case. Sorry for the horrible pic of the phone my daughter took it.

Did you get HD or the anti glare? I'll see how this HD holds up with scratches. I had the anti glare from ghost armor on my S2 and loved it.

Does it cover edge to edge?
I can't open the pictures for some reason.
Also, does it really feel like glass? What's the texture like?

The screen protector is very thick and feels just like it's not even on there. It does not cover edge to edge, has plenty of room for a case. I to recommend this screen protector.

Just got mine in today, ordered on Wednesday.
I'm surprised that it came with 3 instead of the 2 that's advertised.
I also like that it doesn't cover the front sensors
I'll see if I have enough time to put one on today. Hopefully it fits with the diztronic.

How does this protector feel? Does it feel plasticy or more like glass?
I'm curious to know as well
Okay so I just put this on my phone.
I'm hating how LG design the curved edges of the screen right now.
I have the oleophobic ones and they are cut out correctly for the phone, but **** man. You have to be a surgeon to not have any bubbling edges, and that's due to the curved edges of the screen.
I managed to get mine in with only a bit of the top bubbling up, but it doesn't worry me as my hopefully prevents it from coming up.
The Diztronic fits good with the screen protector and doesn't post the edges up.
It feels a bit sticky, but that is something common for the first few days. I'll report back after I get the stickiness off the protector
Clarity is great, screen looks pretty much the same as before.
My only gripe with the screen protector is that there's a bubble that isn't any dust that is on the bottom right of the screen. I'm hoping it goes away after some use and settling.
Edit: I forgot to mention that it doesn't cover any sensors, so there's not problem with knock on/off.
Also, after some use the stickiness is already coming off and it now feels much smoother.

So far the feel is in between glass and plastic. It feels much better than plain plastic, but sometimes gets the squeakiness of plastic when your finger is sliding around

Just got mine in today. I can now swype with a clean screen! The bare glass is a bit sticky for swyping but this screen protector is great.
After a day I take back the stickyness. Its very close to bare glass. After a little greasing up she's slick but after a good cleaning its hard to swype because the finger sticks.
I'll be sticking with it for sure though because it fits very good with my DualPro and TPU case. No it doesn't cover the curved edges but I think my case would peel back a screen protector like that.
I really love the feeling of the G2s screen and hate putting on a screen protector but this one is as close as I'll get to that silky feeling I think.
how is the protector holding up ?
i was about to order the pure crystal one
Mines holding up fine(oleophobic) I also have a case so that helps

Good to hear. Im waiting on the oleophobic as well.

Anyone tried Ghost Armor?

Either the full body matte or carbon finish? I'd like to see how it looks if anyone's got pics and if they're satisfied with it.

One thing ppl say that they don't like about GA is that the side coverings leave a lot of gaps and they don't look good, but seeing as our phone really has no sides, I'm wondering if they even have those pieces in the full body set, if its just a front and back piece that basically connects at the sides
Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk
I have the clear on on my RAZR Maxx. The sides have to be replaced every 3 months. The screen protector has to be replaced ever 4-6 months.

I had ghost armor on my Samsung Galaxy s3 and I only had to replace it once due to me getting a replacement s3. It stayed in great shape but mostly because I used the armor with a urban armor gear case on top of it. Screen protection is really good on it and you can't even tell it's on there

I second this.
I don't the the full body portion is all that great, in terms of durability, but the screen protector is really good. My first choice in screen protection.
I put it on my old Galaxy Nexus and peeled it off after a week. Can't stand the "orange peel" feeling to it.
I also have it on my s3, its a little dingy looking now but it does work really well
Sent from my G2 using xda app-developers app
I use to work there (don't anymore, so no bias) but while their skins are a bit expensive, they're very high quality and the life time warranty makes it worth it where you can go to any ghost armor cart or online and get your old skin replaced.
Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk
I put ghost armor on all my devices. I ask them not to put it so close to the edge that a case pulls it up. On the g2 the guy wasn't sure he could since it pretty much doesn't have a bezel. Turned out great. On my girl friends G pro, it isn't even looks like crap. But her keys or change in pocket are scratching her screen

I had It on my DROID DNA. It, the carbon, was quite slick.
I've converted to exoskin and they're great. They don't make a screen protector though.
