Has anyone here ordered or used they're skin it offer when you guys received your myTouch?
or has anyone used skin it before and what did you guys think of it?
i have one on my g1, and just ordered a custom one for my MyTouch 3G.... I like them. they are very durable, easy to put on, and fit under the snap on clear cases i use. the stretch to go around bent corners and such, to stay smooth with no bubbles or wrinkles.

Personally, I wouldn't order a skin (hate the way the peel up), but I would order one of the custom shells. Know a girl that just got one a couple days ago and it's damn near melted on. . . it's not going anywhere. lol
I have a gel skin (case) from T-Mobile on my HTC Magic and it's alright. It doesn't fit as snug as I would like and it's a dust/lint magnet. Perhaps, that is the case with all gel skins though. Finally, the hole at the bottom covers up the microphone hole on the phone but ppl still hear me ok, so it doesn't seem to be a problem.
Overall, it does the job of protecting the phone.
It's not realy a skin. they actually print the image on a battery cover. Overall it's not bad. The image you use will have a lot to do with the quality of the printing. If you use the 25% off code it comes to about 17 bucks and change with shiping. For the price I am happy with mine. I am going to order another as soon as payday rolls around.
I ordered one but it was a custom image. It looked great online but terrible when I got it. They were extremely fast in replacing it but the second one looked really bad as well. The image quality was good but it doesn't really cover most of the phone so you have all these white spots where there is no coverage.
So they gave me a shell. This was much better but the image quality isn't that good.
All and all they were extremely nice and fast.
So the shell is actually another back plate printed with your design? I hope I read that right, because I have a crack in my back plate near where the camera is and it makes me nuts, I ordered my shell last week, now im just waiting....
I recently ordered a Matte TPU case from a seller on ebay in Hong Kong. I like giving my phone some color on occasion but nothing overbearing or ugly. I dont like the clearish TPU cases with patterns because unless you get it in black or white (clear), the color looks awful to me against the black phone. So i decided to give the matte ones a go and i love it. The only down side is that i wish the buttons werent covered at all, it makes them a bit more sensitive but at least they arent hard to press and i suppose i could just cut it out. For now it doesnt really bother me.
I doubt these cases will provide much shock protection from a bad drop but i think they look good and are extremely slim. I went from using the Amzer to this and my phone feels naked now lol. Ill switch back and forth for when i feel like i need better protection. It feels great in my hand and slides easily in and out of my pocket. The plus about this case is that it doesnt have that hideous random red tramp stamp strip on the back like majority of the matte TPU cases. Im extremely anal about how my phone looks so that was a h*ll no. Also, youll see in the pic below that the front edges are a bit shiny, they arent matte like the back and i guess it adds something to the design. The material covering the buttons is the same thats around the edges. So if you wanted to attempt at cutting and freeing them from confinement, you already have an outline.
The seller i purchased from is out for the Chinese New Year but i think it says they will resume sales on the 11th or 12th. I purchased on the 23rd of January and got it on the 7th so thats pretty average wait time coming from HK.
I also tried out the "S" case that has a thread here in the forum, and way too snug for my liking and i didnt like the gloss next to the matte, so if anyone wants it i can mail it to you or its going in the trash. (i got it in black.)
Here are two pics, sorry i dont have one of it on the actual device but the best camera i own is....my Nexus lol. The itouch fails miserably at a decent photo. And yes remember it is flexible...

Then dont buy one. It was a couple bucks maybe? Its not like there are tons of cases out there that are worth the money so a little on the cheap side doesnt bother me. I wanted plain, slim, and color and thats what this is. I think its hard to avoid a "cheap" look when you spend 4 bucks on a TPU case. But anyway, thats what the review is for...to help you decide if you want one or not.

Haha I've been told a few times that I should but I don't think I have time to learn with school going on. I see like....3 girls on this forum so its kind of intimidating lol. The most I've even done for myself is make docks. I'm working on an icon set though that's been taking forever. Add me to gtalk...same name.
i actually got this case in white. It's actually a very good case for $1 and change. It is very slim. I love it. The buttons are easier to push then the ones on the amzer case.
Definitely worth the $1!!!
I'm thinking of buying this case for its reasonable price (11.99$ + screen protector) and looks but first,
has anyone here tried it? any thoughts? I just wanna know how much bulk will it add to the phone and how good it is with preventing dust going inside.
btw here's the eBay link to the case:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Momax-iCase-Pro...Accessories&hash=item1e625a3fde#ht_6048wt_905
I would say it looks like a very interesting case. I really like the White edged case might be ordering this just to see if its any good being it is only 12 dollars. Thanks for pointing this out to us.
EDIT:: I just ordered the white edge + smoke backed case! Give reviews soon as it arrives, but coming from china it could be atleast a week or two.
I already bought that and the full black one from the same seller yesterday. Can't wait..
I hope it fits perfectly. For now I just use the white capdase case (a bit tight for the i9023)..
the capdase one seems pretty cool as I like cases that doesn't add any bulk.. Can you tell me how is it? easy to press buttons? ext..
as for the Momax case, It seems bulky.. I'll wait for some feedback for now
I purchased one from Momax's website last Thursday and got in from Hong Kong (to Australia) in 4 business days.
The case is a good fit for the I9023, feels really nice and the buttons work properly.
Best thing is their is heaps of space for the charger/usb cable and headphone!

You can order it directly from Momax since they ship international. I just ordered a black Momax iCase Pro for my i9023 and really looking forward to fitting it on my nexus s.

I bought the white capdase (to mach my white battery door). Nice case, but a bit tight, especially in the on/off button, I have to loosen a bit to the right, so I can press the button for on/off, if not the button will be a bit presses, and if I push it, it ask for the shutdown menu. But now is ok. ---> Sorry for my english

I just got the momax Ipro case today from the ebay seller for my i9023.
I bought 2 momax case(smokey back and all black).
I love it, it is the best than the other 2 case I already had (capdase & generic plastic case).
For me, I think its slim enough, and easy to slide in your pants, because the back cover is hard plastik and the side is soft plastic/rubber.
O yeah... all is included with anti glare screen protector.
so.. how much buld does it add..?
do you think it add more than the capdase?
by the way which one provide more protection?
momax capdase or SGP ultra silke???
dont know what to get...
my review of the momax icase pro:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1106147
quite a few pictures!
i'm searching on ebay but still can't decide about case? is anybody use case with p970?
this looks very good but a bit bulky and expensive: http://www.ebay.com/itm/120736772569?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
i don't like it much but let's link for selection: http://www.ebay.com/itm/LG-OPTIMUS-..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item19c50c7ff4
(also those two above has a hole at upper right corner. it's like tv antenna for korea or something.)
this one is cheap and slim but don't look like that attractive: http://www.ebay.com/itm/280704959401?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
any other suggestion?
first one have a better look,i like it
ordered the case at the last link. i will review ~3 weeks later
I ordered a similar case from seller 'moonstore_au" more than a month ago.
They are going to either send me out a replacement or refund my money if it doesn't arrive this week.
With that said, be careful of cheap ones!

yes, this is the downside of free, un-tracked shipping. all of my dealextreme.com orders arrived with no problem. i hope this ebay seller won't dissapoint me.
btw, there is no p970 cases at dealextrme. it's really disappointing.
I bought two here, and its perfect:
http://www.focalprice.com/search.html?keyword=p970
I bought a standard black silicon case for my device and it picks up a lot of lint. Avoid them if possible.
Just bought: http://api.viglink.com/api/click?fo....m1438.l2649&jsonp=vglnk_jsonp_13153408294445 I'll let you know how it is ASAP...
my order has arrived. perfect fit. you can press hard buttons easily. don't collect dust. white one is looking really good. looks better than black case.
just one thing bothers me. sharp edges at back side are show some kind of trace at white transparent area.. it's not a permanent thing. it's not even a trace actually. just doens't look good. but not a big problem.
@murrun
Wow it looks great but can you post some pictures like the one you post in the first link. Thanks. I'm also planning to buy silicone/gel casing for my OB but still undecided.

I think i'm gonna buy this one, when my silicone case will waste.
http://cgi.ebay.it/HARD-RUBBER-CASE...ccessories&hash=item3cb9dfcd12#ht_1289wt_1139
it seems very thin and it is hard rubber!
have you guys tried looking around gmarket korea? it's like korean ebay, and because lg is a korean brand you can actually find quite a few varieties of optimus black accessories there. english.gmarket.co.kr. try searching "optimus black" or "KU5900".
I got mine for about USD10, and shipping to Singapore (where I live) was another 10USD (because I didn't buy anything else.. basically gmarket kr allows you to shop from all the korean shops, then consolidates the orders and sends it to you by EMS).
Unfortunately I can't post links and pictures yet. well if interested can just pm me.
If anyone in the US is looking for TPU cases for the LG Marquee / Optimus Black we have high gloss black and high gloss translucent smoke in stock. They include screen protectors as well. I'd be willing to send some free review samples to XDA members as usual send me a PM
I 'm looking for a new cover...and i found this thread.
I'm very interesting at the Mercury Case, I can only buy in
e-bay http://www.ebay.it/itm/LG-OPTIMUS-BLACK-P970-MERCURY-JELLY-CASE-HIGH-QUALITY-PEARL-JELLY-CASE-/110800569008?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item19cc3a82b0 or in this website http://www.nexcen.net/it/33-optimus-black
but i have a doubt, because the upper left corner is shaped? I have no buttons on that side of the phone
someone who bought it can help me, they seem good quality, is it really so? any advice is welcome
I bought this one & I am loving it.

I've been looking for a back cover for my ob for a long time, not a tpu to be exact, but more like a metallic/hard plastic/rubber back cover for the phone, anyone got any ideas where I could get one?
Hello X fold gang!
My device is on the way to the UK, should be with me in the coming days. Beyond excited!
Wanted to order some sort of case/cover for it, any advice or links on the best ones out there in your opinion? Photo evidence much appreciated

Well, i bought one and received it. The quality is really poor compared to the vivo original black one. I wanted to match my blue phone. Wrong idea. I will keep my black ordinal vivo. Better coverage, better material.

Hi, so far I see this is the best looking case for the X Fold but the only thing hold me back is the shipping take over a month to come

The only problem is that you will not get the wireless charge anymore. With that metal piece on the back.
And i you read comment, you loose fingerprint unlock on front screen... Too much inconvenient for me.
I ordered the Vivo case with the phone. Quite happy with the protection and it doesn't add a lot of weight - the phone is already heavy enough!

this is what i got. i didn't like the front frame, so i removed it. it blocks the bezel. you see, there are functions nowadays (such as sideapp menu, back button) that require user's finger to hold the very tip of the screen for half a second before the menu popups. then again, without that frame you may damage your front screen if it falls. secondly, the stand in the back requires a hard surface in order to hold it stilll. then again, i wouldn't say this is a bad case overall. but it has its flaws. the rest i am satisfied. the material, the durability, it fits well and it covers the side well.
