Phantom skin is amazing

Phantom skin is amazing

I just got mine in the mail. Ordered it from amazon on monday. I had the other brand first which I bought from best buy was complete junk. This one went on so eady and perfectly. Just letting people know.

Great stuff glad you like it. Installed for my fam and no probs.

Yup phantom skin is a quality product.

I just got one too, good stuff. I love not having to worry about little bumps. It also gives it the slightest grip, so I don't always feel like I'm going to drop it.
However, I did manage to get one little tiny black speck of dirt underneath it (argh! I'll try not to let it bother me...). Also, and I don't know if this is because of how I initially peeled the skin off, but there are a couple of horizontal crease/fold lines in the skin. Luckily they sent me two, so I might just do the second one and see if I can do a better job.
I also noticed these tiny (4mm long?) vertical rainbow lines that other people are talking about in the crackberry forums, and which are supposedly due to a bad batch. Anyone else see those?

I had the rainbow effect when I first put it on( the screen was still wet) but after waiting the alotted time it dried and now more vertical rainbow.

Oh Yeah, Phantom Skinz...:thumbup:

Dang, I luv your avatar luv, but I have to slide the left side of the browser off the screen, just in case my boss walks by... (very clever use of the wave too.. how'd you orange-sym-s that while holding up the wave? )

anyway -- my Phantom's been dry for 3 days and these rainbows don't seem to be a moisture issue. I think I know the rainbows you're talking about -- I had those the first few hours after application. But these are different.. Tiny little "scars".. no biggie, but noticeable.

:dft012:wink Thanks!!! It got me real psyched about training camp. Can't wait till kickoff!!! I had to raise the wave because it was blocking the Giants Cap...:dft002:eys_open And yes when screenshotting(word??):dft010:smile just keep the wave up...

:dft006:upset Sounds like there was a bad batch. The horizontal lines are normal but the vertical ones shouldn't be...

I had mine on now for about 2 weeks and it still looks like new. No scratches and I can lay it down almost anywhere without worrying about it. Great product!!!

Does it feel like the original plastic that came with the pre and will it provide more grip? My palms tend to get a bit sweaty in the summer so something with more grip will help me secure the hold of my pre.

It does feel like the original plastic. The only time you know it's a film is when you you put your nail to it. Since I have a Seidio cover, the skin is only on the front. I can't say that it gives more grip, seems the same to me.

thanks darreno1 I heard the Seido cover is relatively similar to the touchstone cover. Just one last thing about PS does it fit in the pouch that came with the pre? I really like the pouch for some reason but it'll be no big if it doesn't fit in it.

What website sells the phantom skin?

Phantomskinz.com

If you mean just with the PS and the normal sized back cover, yeah sure it'll fit no problem. But with the Seidio back cover that comes with the 2600mah (the big cover) the Pre won't fit the pouch.

Yeah I meant the PS with the normal sized cover. Cool thanks hopefully mine arrives quickly.

Do you all still use the suedelike pouch with the Phantom Skinz? I've been using mine because I thought it might be a good idea to have the additional protection as well as having something to wipe the phone off with, but it can be kinda a pain & I've thought about puting the Pre directly into my pocket.

Yeah, I still use the suede sleeping bag + the Phantom. It does require a little more oomph to slide it in/out, but that extra friction (from both suede-to-pocket, and suede-to-PSkinz) keeps the Pre from popping out of my pockets.
I occasionally skip the suede bag if I'm on a quick jaunt somewhere down the hall, but then try to be more mindful of its presence in whichever pocket. Sounds paranoid, but I've read enough broken Pre horror stories!

if you inside out the pouch to the orange side + phantom skinz, it makes it a little easier. before when you flipped it and no PS, it was too 'baggy'.
