Half off on these skins until the 4th - OnePlus 3T Accessories

I don't know the rules on advertising, but I'm not trying to advertise.
I noticed this site, SlickWraps.com is having a half off sale until the 4th. What caught my eye were the unique textured skins towards the bottom of the list. They're $25-$28 normally which I consider unreasonable, but for half off, that makes them intriguing to me. I'm interested in having a skin with polyester texture to it. But it also applies to the cheaper ones which puts them under $9
anyway thought I'd share.

Your post is actually advertisement, though.

I couldnt care if anyone actually buys them. I'm just trying a skin out for the 1st time, I typically use cases. Thought I'd share because I think normal-priced skins, even from dbrand are unreasonable. Like I'd pay $20 for whats basically a sticker. I find it an easier pill to swallow to buy a fancier sticker for $13
Now I'm interested in anyone with a suggestion for a flass screen protector. I can't find one without that dot matrix junk on them. Who thought that was a good idea?

Their 50% off sale is just a bulls*it. Normally you can buy sticker only for back side for 9.99$ or full set 20-25$. But when they has sales you can only buy full sets (20-25$ and minus discount %). Its great for people buying full sets but i myself prefer only back side. That's why i'm buying from Dbrand. From Drand you can actually buy just for parts you want and when they have discounts its really real discounts not like Slickwraps "we will cheat customers".

Except DBrand has horrible customer service. 1st and last time I bought from them was just last month. Got skins for my Surface Pro and they send me an email saying because they were having a sale my 2 day shipping was going to be delayed. Took 2 weeks. Sent an email twice to their CS and never heard back. Do like the wood grain skin though

[VIDEO] Droid X Argyle TPU Case Review

I made a video review this morning for the Droid X Argyle TPU Cases. I used a Droid 2 to record it, so the video quality isn't quite professional quality
For some reason on all the videos I've made on the Droid 2, the first 2-3 seconds have a high pitch whine in the audio. Anyone else had that problem?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lv3ntrp1F9c
i just ordered this from ebay for about $3 shipped. sure it's from hong kong, but my droid x won't be shipping til at least the 3rd so i can wait.

Yes you can get them cheaper if your willing to wait a few weeks, but if you already have your phone that could be a costly mistake, as who knows how many times you might drop it the cheapest US seller I could find was selling them for $7.95 shipped.
i'll agree with that. get selling!
also since you do have them, couple of questions. are they a soft material like those silicone cases? do they have a rubberized finish so that they don't slide much?

They are softer then a crystal poly carb case, but harder then the rubber/silicone case. These have a smooth finish, so they don't grip like the silicone cases do -- which personally i like, since its easier to take out of my pocket. but others might like more grip. the main advantages i see to TPU over silicone is they don't sag like the silicone ones do, they don't pick up lint, and they are easy to clean.
Just wanted to let anyone who is thinking of purchasing these cases. Just got mines delivered, first off perfect fit and every hole cut out perfect ( headset,mics,speakers) its thin ( it feels as if It was naked to me ) love the texture and feel of it ) Fast delivery and Honest seller. By the way I will be ordering a blue one on monday . Thanks again for selling these cases ..

Glad to hear it! I love my TPU case. The design is so simple compared to cases I've used in the past (Speck CandyShell, SwitchEasy Capsule Rebel, etc). Seems to provide almost as much protection with 1/2 the bulk! Considering how big these phones are, slim cases are a must in my opinion.
yeah! i just got mine in!! i am very pleased with the cases! they have a nice grip but smooth enough to slide in and out of my jeans/dress pant pockets with NO LINT! thanks for the extremely fast shipping!
i have some pics of my new droid x w/case
awesome! 2 satisfied customers
Which do you like better, the clear or the smoke? I seem to be selling considerably more of the smoke then any other color. Not much demand for Red or Orange. Maybe come Halloween the Orange will be selling like hotcakes!
haha!! i am leaning toward the smoke! it's a nice dark color that matches the droid very nicely! and the argyle print is subtle on the smoke. I do like the clear though! its a nice change of pace. I can understand the low demand for orange haha. its a bold color! now all we need are some bold people!
I would totally buy an orange one if Verizon lets me upgrade (Clemson Tiger fan). My contract isn't up until next summer, but I got an early upgrade offer in the mail today on any smartphone. It's not showing up online, so I'll have to call tomorrow and find out if I'm really going to be eligible. The fine print on the offer says I must be 180 days into a contract, which I am. Will let you know how it goes!

I was thinking of marketing some of the colors to different sports fans earlier today. i put up an eBay listing with the word "vikings" in the title for the purple case. I live in WI so I should be able to sell some Red to the Badger fans! good luck with early upgrade. sprint lets me upgrade every year since I'm a preferred customer (whatever that means). thats pretty awesome if you can upgrade after only 180 days! do you have multiple lines on your account or something?

We have four lines on our account. Three of the four lines were listed on the package as eligible, as long as they are upgraded by August 31st. I have never received an offer of this sort before the X.
well that would certainly make you a "preferred customer" in my book! i wonder if they are worried about people jumping ship for the iphone 4, and are offering early upgrades? although you'd have to be a fool to leave verizon and their droid x for at&t and the iphone in my opinion!
still haven't gotten mine. phone should be in monday. perhaps case will be in then too lol. if not then i may just have to order for you. need a second case anyway for my car mount.
Wow, my new shipment arrived super fast. Shipped from Honk Kong at 11:00pm at night 8/3 and is scheduled for delivery this morning 8/5! Man DHL is impressive. Apparently they clear packages through customs in the air, logistics at its finest!
So smoke is back in stock... or will be in the next hour.
Are these the same cases as DCMUGEN? If they are will you be carrying the screen protectors too? I had already ordered my case before I saw this post but if you are going to carry the screen protectors I will order them from you.

I've been considering ordering screen protectors and selling them as package deal, but i haven't yet. No, these are not the same as the DCMugen cases, those have 1 large cutout on the back, which many people have complained about (I get people emailing asking to verify that mine don't have one large cutout). The ones I have have 2 smaller cutouts, leaving less of the phone exposed. Thanks

I got the same thing in the mail a few days ago, and stopped at a nearby store Wednesday. After talking to the salesguy for a few minutes I realized I knew more about the phones than he did, and stopped asking questions and just told him I would buy the Droid X and to please order one for me... But yeah, my contract isn't supposed to be up until like early next fall, late summer, something like that, so I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the notice in the mail! I have a Touch Pro2 right now, and I just hate it. It's my second WinMo phone, and the frequent performance problems just annoy the crap out of me (I'm running the stock 6.5 ROM just cause I'm too scared of bricking it), so I'm making the jump to Android.

I just got my DCMugen case and it does not have 1 large cutout on the back. It looks exactly like your case. I'm not trying to tear you down, because I would have ordered from you if I had seen this before I ordered from him.
DCMugen is cheaper (by about $4), but you will get your case much slower (took about 2 weeks to get mine from him).

Read before buying Tmobiles Gel Case.

So I did a little research last night on the Gel Case Tmoblie is selling for the price of $18 around here in NYC. While they were all out of black (at least the ones I checked) I hit the good ol' Internets and found something surprising.
Amazon carries the same exact case for $10 in a plethora of colors that Tmobile does not offer.
The companies name is "Amzer". A person posted pictures of the case on amazon and it indeed confirmed it for me. It has the same look and feel (yah I know I did not touch it but it looked like it did.) as the Tmobile branded version.
I saw in the T-Mobile gel skin (Black) thread Aeson asked about the manufacturer. So here is your answer.
Indeed these are Amzer rebranded cases for $10 a pop at amazon.
LINKS BELOW!!!!!!!
Amazon
Amzer
Enjoy!
DISCLAIMER: My research can be wrong. Amzer might have a slightly different case then Tmobile. Just a heads up before you buy and end up getting the wrong case and try blaming it on me.
so..
Usually ships within 1 to 3 months with free shipping or
8/3 + $4.99 shipping or
Now with instant gratification for $16.99?
I already have mine. This is what happens when you have no protection
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=740619
But this is a good bit of information no less. I don't think it'll stop people from buying it in the store.
these aren't available yet (till the 3rd)..these have been discussed in other threads as well.. but some prefer being able to pick one up in store after trying it out
speaking of Amzer.. is it just me or does this NOT have a cutout for the speaker?!? lol

Yea I saw that but I thought I would provide the info just in case (no pun intended) wanted different colors because I saw a lot of people asking for different colors like white. I myself would love a white one. Also They have been pretty difficult to find over here especially the black one but I do understand where you are coming from. I will buy a black on from tmobile and a white one from Amazon.

Yah I don't know if those are final or pre production images but if not than that case is a total fail! It's very ugly too I hate how it covers the ear piece part.
but these are the cases you are looking for
I just ordered it yesterday. Since t-mo stores are all out of stock. Hopefully they ship soon or before 8/3 or else would suck.
I bought a black gel skin from T-Mobile and it's actually really nice. A LOT better than the blue gel skin I got for my myTouch 3G at launch. I got the last one at a T-Mobile store 20 minutes away from me (my local one ran out) and I was at another store yesterday and it looked like they just got a new shipment of them cause they had about 5 blacks and one light blue, which was kind of nice, but I preferred the black, so it looks like they're getting more colors in eventually.
Can anyone confirm that Amazon is actually shipping these, in spite of the "Usually ships within 1 to 3 months" statement? I'd really prefer to order a few things from Amazon together w/ free shipping instead of different vendors.
Between my wife and I we just ordered 4 different cases from Amzer. Originally saw them on Amazon but was turned off by the 1-3 month comment. Amzer says that they will be shipping on the 3rd and the price was the same so I just went with them.

Nearly all of T-Mobile's accessories are re-branded versions of some 3rd-party accessory. T-Mobile just sells them for a lot more money.

True, but these are, in fact, different. Close, probably, but not the same.
I may still grab a white one, for when I'm just feeling something different than black.

I just noticed that amzer and amazon have both changed their pictures of these cases. The pictures that were posted when I ordered the cases last weekend looked identical to the tmobile case. The pictures that are posted now do not. This should be interesting to see what actually shows up on my doorstep.

Yea I noticed that as well so I added a disclaimer to the OP. So no one goes raging at me threatening to kill me lol.
I highly recommend NOT getting the Amzer case. I as well was duped. I ordered the white one last week got it in yesterday and I do not like it at all. The volume buttons seem slightly easier to push but the power button is not. It is very loose on the phone, like ridiculously loose. T-Mobile one is alot better.
I got the gray Amzer case today and I am satisfied with it. I mean for $10 its a good temporary case. It's not THAT loose. It does the job. For me the power/volume buttons are just as easy to press even though they are covered. Everyone's entitled to their own opinions though.
Took 3-4 business days to get here on super saver shipping.
anybody tried one of these cheapies yet?

Looks like I will be waiting for mine for awhile. I ordered a couple of the solid color jelly cases, which are in stock, but I also ordered a couple of the Luxe Argyle skin cases. Those aren't supposed to ship until the 17th. Oh well, I guess I didn't realize they would hold the entire shipment until they could fill everything.
My wife bought a tmobile case in the meantime, so at least I can do a good side by side comparison when the amzer cases come in.

yeah i ordered the one from amzer... talked to a buddy at a tmobile and he was "welll you can get it and just return it if you get the case with in 30 days" went home and saw amzer updated pictures.. cancled the order and just took the dive.. the case from tmobile is perfect i dont mind dropping 20 bucks to keep my expensive phone safe
Hadn't seen this posted yet anywhere...
T-Mobile is finally showing these cases as available for order on their website. Black, teal and a different chrome/black case that looks pretty nice. Still waiting for my Amzer black...sorta wish I'd waited now. I really like the look of these.

Original samsung carbon case in stock

Just checked samsung online store, they removed "out of stock" text and "buy from samsung" enabled now.
http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/...index.idx?pagetype=prd_detail&tab=accessories
I was just going to post the same thing.
$20 for the Samsung one or this thing on Ebay looks the exact same for $8?
http://cgi.ebay.com/BLACK-Rubberize...80544931656?pt=PDA_Accessories#ht_2594wt_1137
Anyone???
I would venture to say that the OEM ones are generally a little bit better quality (sometimes a whole lot better) than the 3rd party eBay ones. However, it really depends how picky on details you are with a case.
If you want something that is "good enough" than the eBay case is probably fine, but if you are a stickler for flush casing, perfect lines, etc. - then OEM is probably a better way.
Samsung's is Carbon Fiber, Ebay is just fiber.
I went with Samsung's.
BTW, use code SUMMER2010 for 10% off.
debating whether to get a case at all ... i kind of like the phone being thin and the design of it. you guys think it's just wiser to invest in a case and not worry about marring the OEM finish ?
$23ish (Tax/Shipping) for a case or blow $5/mo plus a $125 deductible on Insurance??? Kindof no brainer to me. Dropping your phone is 95% of the ways you'll damage it and, this covers it.
I also wouldn't worry about the OEM case harming the OEM phone, it's probably got some rubberized texture on the inside.
Would love to hear some reviews on this case.

It says free flat USPS when you do not enter your state/city/zip. Once you enter those it will show your shipping.

I don't know, I ordered an iPod case from ebay five years ago and I'm still using it. It was only seven dollars but has lasted a long time. It fits good as well. I think some of the cases on ebay may be bad but some can be very good. IMO that one on ebay looks like a good case. I even thought about buying it.
I'd like to see some better pictures of the Samsung case.

Gumdrop Military Edition

I ordered one of these
http://www.gumdropcases.com/military-edition-samsung-galaxy-tab-rugged-case.html
about a week ago and was told "Shipping in two to three weeks".
Well, hallelujah, it shipped yesterday.
I will post a full review when it arrives.
i'm not sure how I could carry this around....
I have two kids, two dogs, a swimming pool with a concrete deck and I use my Tab on the treadmill and elliptical. I'll take all the protection I can get. My iPod is in an Otter case, and I can't count the number of times it's been dropped in the gym and the case has saved it.
Looks great. It will match my uniform but isn't it a little expensive?
I just bought one, too! My kid has a tendency to drop things!
Been using mines for the past month. Black on black was the one and only choice for me. Plus, the optional screen protector works better than I had expected.
Sent from my Cyanogen-filled G2x or my GTab 10.1 now "In Paris"
Well, this thing arrived earlier this week. I'm not happy, but before I get into a rant, let me see how Gumdrop deals with the issue. The issue is - I specifically bought the Military Edition for the microfilm dust filters and.....there're aren't any. I paid $10 more than the regular case, for a...regular case, but in green. Other than that, the case looks like it offers some serious protection for the Tab.
So far, their response has been underwhelming. The have offered a 10% refund. Well, I'm not the best at math, but if I have done this right...10% of $59.95 is $5.99. A regular non military case is $10 cheaper. I'm still getting the short end of the stick.
I've politely declined their offer and asked for a full refund, item to be shipped back at THEIR expense. Does this seem reasonable, as the item I received is not the item that I paid for?

Sounds reasonable to me. If you used PayPal or CC just dispute it if they say no.
OK, Kudos to Gumdrop for responding quickly and satifactorily. I didn't realize that the military case comes with a clear plastic shield for the camera lens which the regular case doesn't. So it's not the exact same case as the regular. This is why I was offered 10% instead of $10.
They've offered to send me a shipping label and I can return the item for a full refund. I really wanted the dust filters, so I might take them up on the offer.
Anyway, good customer service and the case itself is well designed and offers what appears to be significant protection (I'm not going to purposely drop it to find out though).
It would take the $5.99 they are offering and go buy some thin cloth filter material similar to the material or composition of some reusable shopping bags and cut some strips to cover the speaker holes, glue it to the inner edge pieces or just place it there and call it a day.
Just ordered one today....looking forward to it.

[Q] Leather Back cover to replace plastic

I bought the G4 with plastic back, thinking that I can eventually replace the back with a leather one for less than the $40 difference. So far, I have been unable to find a leather back cover for less than that. The cheapest OEM LG cover on ebay is $60. Crazy right?
Anyway, I am sure as time goes on, there will be more and cheaper options.
Meanwhile, if anyone knows of one, please post here. Again, I am looking to replace the plastic back cover with leather, not applying a leather protector case on top. With G4 slightly larger than G3, I find it really bulky and ugly to add anything to it. I will most likely just use it naked with a screen protector.
Mobile Fun has brown and black for pre-order for $50. I think over at AC someone posted that LG might officially be releasing leather backs as early as tomorrow.
An LG rep told me that they will be selling leather cases starting Monday.

Thanks. But I don't think they are worth more than $40, which is what LG wants for them if you buy the one with the leather back. I might be willing to pay $20, but ideally around $10. I know, I am cheap...
Lol...I paid 70 after shipping for my red on on eBay.

Any more info on the backs straight from LG?
Nothing that I've heard yet. Once It gets it a little later in the day here in Cali I'll text my LG rep see what she says about them.

Why no black?!?! Y u do dis LG?!?!?!?! :crying:
Just ordered my 2 for 1.
Shipping is free so I'm getting 2 leather backs for $76.02 including tax.
they may get cheaper in the future but I don't care.
I have the deep blue verizon variant and I ordered the red leather and the yellow leather.
I know the yellow could get dirty, but I'll only use that on certain occasions.
According to web site, they'll be shipped on 6/26.

I didn't like the leather cases. Plus I use a case to protect the sides. So relevant. I got the white back. I love it.
So they're doing 2 cases for the price of one, but I only want one case. Anyone (who doesn't mind getting a Verizon model*) want to go in with me? I'll get two cases, and send you one for half of what I pay plus whatever it costs me to ship it to you. (Bonus if you're in the Chicago area and we can do this in person.)
*LG asks for carrier. I'm guessing that just means some kinda branding, but it's barely possible that brand has something to do with how the case fits. I'm on VZW so I'll be specifying that on the cases when ordering.

I'd be up for that deal. I have the black leather VZW variant, and would enjoy a red leather back to swap out on occasion.
why only in US.
this is bad for us Italians.

hahah this alone could be a good enough reason
Heads up - a few OEM black leather cases just popped up on ebay for $34, cheaper than the BOGO deal. Search for item 251989020528.
Personally I think I will still hold out for the $10 price point. But it's nice to see a quick drop in prices on these...

I just bought that. Let's see how the quality is and how genuine.

Very interested to hear what you think of it. My completely uninformed guess was that LG's would be higher quality. But I'd love to be proved wrong.
