Looks like Skinomi already has some skins and screen protectors for the Prime. I have the carbon fiber skin for the TF1 and love it. I'll probably get one for my Prime as well.
Skinomi ASUS Transformer Prime Skins
Has anyone tried the dry tech one? I'm a Steinheil fan. I've tried Skinomi's wet one and hated it just as much as all the wet application ones I've tried.
I don't want to wait for Steinheil though. I want one before my Prime comes. So Skinomi looks like my only choice.

I'm also curious about the drytech version as well. And as far as Steinheil is concerned, I contacted them a couple of days ago about Prime protectors. They replied they had no current plans to produce them.
I ordered one of the wet kits, but the dry tech is intriguing, if anyone had any info on them that would be great.
I ordered a clear front and back... Got charged but never got an email confirmation hopefully they will show up! Got 25% off to with a coupon code! XD

On their site you can't see proper image, all images are so small. Why manufacturer can't show his product in High quality picture, there are so shy... And I'm not buying something I can't see clearly what it is...
What kind of Skin is this one:

This skin isn't perfect fit as you can see on borders, are all skins like that ?
Yeah they can't cut it perfect that's the carbon fiber one! I just installed that in my moms phone don't worry about the space at all! But you might wanna get clear cuz the speaker cut out will look funny
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
did anyone get a skinomi skin for the prime yet? What does the cutout for the speakers look like. I'm thinking about getting the dark wood one, but if its just a square cut out, i'll go for clear.
Have not received them yet...! I emailed support and they said it got lost in the Post Office but I think they haven't shipped it yet! I have a tracking number but it has not been dropped off at the office yet... I wouldn't expect it till way after the prime comes out!
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
I think it might be possible that they dont even have them made yet, and is only advertising that they have it. Skinomi is the only company that is selling one for the prime and the fact that nobody received theirs yet (shipping problems, no emails, etc) is a little fishy.

Just grabbed a Skinomi TechSkin screen protector for $15 on Amazon. Opted for the normal TechSkin over the DryTech after speaking with their Customer Service and verifying that the TechSkin feels more like a glass surface, aka no drag or friction.
Going to use this until the SGP Ultra Optic protector is released for the Prime. Until then, the Skinomi was cheap enough to hold me over.

They told me the same thing, and said they were going to ship a 2nd one, that if i got both just keep them. I wanted it here before the Prime so that I have protection from day one. I plan on using this at work, under more harsh conditions than most of them will ever see.

Yeah there has to be that's why I went with clear even cases will need to have that cutout so you can hear!
An update from their customer service representatives.
They said the skins would ship closer to the date of release of the tablet... When I do not know..
I think this means by like January...
As they will need to get the tablet it and take dimensions then cut the skins!
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
anyone get a status update on their order? i have got nothing from them and now contacting support
I have done a dry-tech install to my TF101. My advice - don't. Now, Skinomi is a great company and their customer service is wonderful. However, the dry install screen protector is a nightmare, and I have lots of experience in installing screen protectors on phones and tablets. You can actually wet-install the dry-tech version. After trying the dry version, i ripped it off and used the wet install technique. The wet result is a thousand times better. As I said, I've installed many pristine bubble-free screen protectors and am very good at it. However the dry version is so sticky you cannot get a smooth application. It's impossible to get bubbles out or squeegee out any imperfections. Maybe someone else got a dry-tech install to work, but I never did. Wet apply is excellent and perfect.
Update they gave me a 10 dollar discount! Off my already 25% off so I got the front and back for 12 dollars!
They said asus made a last minute redesign and they do not know when they will ship probably closer to January!

Have been searching a long time for a slick, non-bulky case for TF201&dock. Today, I found one for the TF101 and am wondering if anyone has seen a similar one for the TF201.
The TF101 version can be found at:
hzhkkj[dot]com/product_show.asp?pid=1579&bigid=2&smallId=735
Would be the nicest case I have seen around!
Yes, I have one and it is very good. already use four days and was really mean something else. just did a search on ebay for sikai and prime and voila...
Edit: i don't use it with the dock... for me the dock is just for extra batery. I prefer a thin case like this without the leather
Just ordered the case, with free shipping from:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190638465174#ht_6644wt_1043
Will do a review once received.
.,
@rndmnss: Can only be used without the dock....
@boyboi1234: Don't like the framing around the screen, but it's getting close!

I'm hoping that it will be similar to the TF101:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16989142&postcount=56
Even if it isn't, I was thinking of getting a separate case for tablet and dock anyway...
Ehmmm...I hope not... That's Fugly!!!
Don't want a whole rim around the front-end and what's up with that flap over the dock?
Just got an update over the mail of the seller (/maker?) of the TF101 version: The Tf201 version is going into production!!! I'll get an update as soon as they are for sale...Keep you posted!
It's in production!
Check it out: http://www.hzhkkj.com/product_show.asp?pid=1591&bigid=2&smallId=785

I Love the look of this case.
So much, I want to order one myself.
Price looks great as well ($31)
Trying to register was a pain to start with.
Once that was done I received a very unclear activation email.
The so called English on the site itself and the email was real bad.
After that, I tried to go back to the website to order my goodies.
But all I get is a page loading error.
Finally I decided to quit .
I even feel uncertain now about the website at this moment.
I might (hope) to be wrong but at this moment I want to wait and see how your order ends.
Please update once you receive yours, because I really like the look,of it.
Good luck !!!
Yeah....that site isn't really good, just use the E-Bay site: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sikai-leath...840246?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2c64829436
It's also cheaper there....

Thanks a lot for your reply.
I ordered one right away.
23 euros and free shipping, seems a great deal !!!
Just got the case today and so far I am happy with it. I like the feel of the case and it does not add much weight since it has been made from a light weight material.
The cut-outs all line up and the quality is good. Just tried taking some photos and there doesn't seem like there is a problem (I know that the cut-out can sometimes affect the flash). What I also like about the case is that I can access the charge port easily.

Lol, I think I agree with you after a second look at it. I ended getting a separate Case Logic tablet bag and just received my Sikai case today. Tried it with the dock but it really does look ugly and it's not very functional since the flap covers part of the keyboard.

I just got my Sikai case it. It is pretty sharp looking!
For me the best feature is that it doesn't look like leather or fake leather. It has a nice minimalist modern appearance to it that doesn't feel pretentious but woudl work well in a corporate environment.
So yesterday in the mail I finally recieved my Cruzerlite Persona Cases that took 3 weeks to ship after they told me it would only be a couple of days longer on pre-order. To be honest navigating through the website was slow and sluggish on my phone or my comp. But back to the cases we go.
I was shocked when my GF told me they came in the male and looked terrible. I thought she may have been being picky or something but was left horrified when i got home. These cases don't look as nice as they do on their website. The inside of all the cases are not painted and are white, which shows on the outside with big contrasting bold white lines around every hole from the power button to the mic hole. The paint and case feel nice but the paint isn't just missing in some places, it's also rippling in small places across the phone. Looks like the phone has wrinkles.
I ordered 3 cases. They're all like this. One of them actually leaves a flap open right under the kickstand and also makes it so that the power button gets stuck. I would recommend going with another case even their own Androidified cases, but they did a terrible job on these cases for the price.
i got 3 yesterday in the mail. the unpainted white inside is not a problem at ALL. you dont see it once its on the phone. these are the 3 i got...
I don't know if you got free cases to say that or something but you can see the white right there on the last case and it shows just the same when you put it on cause i own the same one.
the white near the kick stand doesnt show once its on my phone though.
BUT, once you said how the paint looked unfishined on some of the cases i noticed on my yellow case that on the front its not painted fully =/
im going to contact them about this =/

Good luck with their customer support. I was PROMISED a refund on an order, to no avail. 15 something emails, and months later, nothing. Won't waste my money on this company again, and have been making as many people aware of them and their ways as I can.
Tried the sharpie. Cases are a matte finish sharpie is shiny looks terrible. Wiped off.
I bought the Rorschach and I was equally disappointed in the quality of the printing. The color is way off and sloppy compared to the pic on the website. I'm asking for a refund right now but they are being super slow at responding to me.

FYI, Tried this and the guy told me he didn't work there anymore...still no joy on a refund.
EDIT: Rejoice! I have received a refund and they didn't even ask for the stupid POS case back - who would? it surely cost them only pennies to make, more costly to restock than toss it out.
I like to buy from this type of companies that care about the costumer. I'll be getting a case from them for sure.

Does anyone know where to get a cases and screen protectors? all I can find is for the international and sprint version. My phone arrives on monday
Got mine from ATT yesterday and they had a case on display, it's a dual protection case for $35, adds a little thickness to the phone. I did find this one online http:// http://www.amzer.com/Amzer-Simple-Cl...ack-P95089.htm
im currently rocking the belkin bumper from the att store. looks good and feels good
I got a "Body Glove" which is a gel inside a hard case. So far, I like it. It doesn't add as much girth as an otterbox. I also added a screen protector (yeah, I know that it's gorilla glass, but I've seen scratches on GG too).

Screen Protector and Case
I too was looking around for cases and screen protectors as I just got the phone today! Love it so far. Really well made and fast phone. I found an Spigen (SGP) screen protector but it's for the Sprint and International one, but since the screens are the same (to my knowledge) I sent an email asking Spigen if they are compatible and also asked then when the AT&T Optimus G cases will be released. Will update when I receive an email back.
P.S.
I tried the Belkin Bumper for this phone at the AT&T store, and truly hated it because it made the phone look super weird.
I found a good screen protector for the front and back of the phone.
Search Amazon and eBay for the screen protector: REALOOK AT&T LG Optimus G(LG-E970) Screen Protector
(I'm not allowed to post a link until 10 posts)
I ordered this today and will post here on the quality when I get them.

I can vouch for the quality of this BodyGlove case that AT&T sells.... this morning I found my phone laying underneath our kitchen table. The phone had fallen 6 feet from a shelf and our floor is made of smooth concrete. I noticed it somehow made contact with three corners of the case leaving gashes... but inside my phone was found in pristine condition when removing the case. If it works from 6 feet it will most certainly be fine dropped from your hand or out of pants pocket

Got the body glove dual protection case from AT&T for my wife's LGOG, it seems to be the best case out at the moment although I hope Seido puts out something soon since I think the case is a little too smooth/slick and it's bound to slip out of her hands at some point in time. Would like something slightly more grippy.
I got one of the cheapo snap together hard cases locally, and the tabs on it snapped when I put it on.
I would avoid these, and for now, go with either the Belkin bumper, body glove, or wait for the speck and otterbox cases to be released.
Anyone have pictures of the case they are using?
I've had good luck with GreatShield screen protectors on my previous phone (SG2). Just ordered some from Amazon, they come 3 to a pack, easy, dry install. I prefer their anti-glare (matte) version though, low drag. The glossy version showed fingerprints and had an annoying drag effect. GreatShield also makes a nice, cheap TPU case but I couldn't find one for the OG.
I have a favor to ask can some one with the AT&T Optimus G and a good scanner the higher the DPI the beater make a scan of the front and back of the phone I have a company that can produce glass screen protectors all they need is a good scan of the phone the higher the DPI the beater. just PM me if you can help. Thanks.
I ordered this case for my e970 as it clearly states that it is for the at&t model. It came in today and of course is for the LS970 instead. It won't fit but it is a cool case. I would actually recommend this of you have the LS970 model.
I also ordered 3 screen protectors from EZ Gaurdz and I can 100% honestly say they are the worst I have ever seen. I've had a couple bad ones before, but these are awful. The cut is horrid and the material is decent at best. They do not come with top and bottom peel off layers like most do.
I've requested a refund on both of the items.
******UPDATE*******
I've received a refund from both sellers for the items. If anyone wants the case they can have it. Just pay shipping. PM me if you're interested. I will weigh it in the morning and update this post with shipping info. It shouldn't be more than a couple bucks for US. I like the case and I'm sad it didn't work out, but at least someone here can use it.

I tried that same case, same results. The seller was prompt with the refund and told me to keep the case. Guess it's going back up on Ebay. Finally rec'd the GreatShield screen protectors, but they were too long and the cutouts were wrong. The package was labeled LG Optimus G but the fit wasn't even close. Still waiting for that refund (3rd party on Amazon).
TPU Case
See my post at the link for information about a TPU case.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34786302&postcount=11
I got another case and a bit bored, so might as well post pictures of this if anyone out there was curious about clear cases on this phone. It's been a very long time since I had a clear case, but I thought it would look well with the white Note 3. I actually like it. For now until it gets dirty. I like it better than the Spigen Bounce case. Both do feel different in the hand because the Bounce case has a fully matte texture. Both are slim.
Pros
- Border/Bumper is TPU
- Back side is hard poly carbonate/plastic
- Holes/ports match up
- Buttons are easy to press
- Looks good on white (I don't have a black one to check out)
Cons
- Back side can get scratched
- If it gets dirty inside the case, it'll show.
- If your phone is dirty, it'll show.
I got it on Amazon, just copy the title of this topic and search it there.
EDIT:
I'll just post a link, might as well.

I got this case yesterday i really like it allot , slim profile , i actually can hold the phone in one hand and operate it , as listed above you've pretty much nailed the pro's and con's to a t , nice job , the only thing i quess i would comment further on is that it does scratch very very easily, i just go it yesterday , i keep keys in opposite pocket , and man are there allot of scratches already , it's really ashame , still i would reccomend this case , i just wish it where made of different material.........

Edit: Hm, I could only find the black and clear but it's unavailable. OP how much was it?

Hmm...strange. It was up for $9.99 with Prime two days ago.

Thanks. I agree about the scratches. I already see some because I was spinning the case when trying to take pictures, but if you have a white phone, it's hard to spot unless you're under direct light or there's a lot of scratches in one area. It's probably easier to see with the black version.
Just got mine yesterday also. I agree with the OP review and will say the case is better than I expected for $10. Samsung makes a case very simaler to this one for Note 2, S4, etc. It's a little bit better, waiting for the Note 3 version to eventually come out...
I almost got that one cuz I want to be able to see the phone but opted for a gel one, should be here in a day or two and we can compare em.

I got this last Thursday and I am glad I did when I went to best buy Friday to get the note 3 they had zero cases. It's a nice case and shows off the back very nicely.
damn pretty much exactly what im looking for but shows unavailable
i ordered mine earlier in the week. out for delivery today hope its nice!!
Well, this case is back in stock, but the prices has been raised unfortunately. I don't think any TPU type of case is worth over $10 unless there are designs on it, but that's just my opinion.
This case isnt that great returned it after, a day the back was scratched . Nice idea poor design or material

Get the one I got for 3 dollars shipped and delivered in 3 days, been using it for a couple of days now and haven't even thought of putting my Caseology back on. I totally forget there is a case on it and can appreciate the looks of the phone plus this is tpu and won't scratch and it is not flimsy in the least. The sell counter on Ebay says its sold close to 500 cases, good to see so many Note 3 owners taking advantage of a good deal.
I just realized it comes in four colors too.

Any clear case will be scratched (I'm not talking about matte frosted cases). There's none that's scratch resistant.

Yup, I figure better the case than the phone! Plus these things are so cheap, if it starts looking really bad after a few months, just throw it away and get something else.
I got the one with the black around it. I like it.

I got one and like it. Nice fit, holes line up for all ports, low profile. I did look closely and notice some very light scratches on the clear back. Guess I'll try something else when the scratches become too visible.
Update: my Luvvitt case looked so scratched up that I ditched it and got a Diztronic Matte Back Black Flexible TPU Case. I've been *really* happy with the Diztronic - great design, lightweight, holds up great, no scratches or marks, and has protected my phone on the few occasions when I dropped it.
I love clear tpu type cases but I find most of them turn yellow after a while so I have to keep buying them.

I got one of these. I also own a bunch of other cases. I thought this case was noticeably heavier than others.

I know this thread is a bit old. Just went to find the clear one and shows out of stock.
I bought one of these, see how it works out:

ToastMade now has the wood back and front kits in 4 colors now available!!
http://www.toastmade.com/products/nexus-6.html
That is actually nice! I think I will get one for the back.
Curious to see a review of this
Looks nice but it offers literally zero protection.

What skin offers protection for drops?
Anyways I like how they also cut out the dimple and put a small logo at the bottom. Just makes it more interesting than just a slab of wood.
Ordered the ebony front/back with 8-bit etching. Will post pictures when I receive it. Order status still says "awaiting fulfillment". I was able to pick up and hold multiple example devices they had at their CES booth, and I absolutely loved the quality. The one I wish they made for the Nexus 6 is the leather. A guy at the booth had the leather on his iPhone for the past few months that he showed me. The wear of the leather made it look absolutely captivating and unique. I loved it.
it looks amazing.
I just want a real wood replacement back for the N6, kinda like the ones you can get for the moto X from Moto Maker

That's the whole reason I got excited when I approached their booth at CES. Such a simple way to give me the wood back I want, and a bit of protection to keep the actual phone looking nice. I have some 3m film in a roll at the house that I'm tempted to cover the sides since the toast cover doesn't wrap all the way around. It's such a large phone already so I don't want a huge case, but I don't want to run completely naked either. This seems like the perfect way to protect and make it look more gorgeous than it already is.

Is the wood smooth or does it feel like it will splinter and give me splinters lol?

Surprisingly smooth! It still has that wood, somewhat grainy texture, but very very smooth. So no possibility of splinters!

I ordered mine as soon as it showed up as well, so surely that means mine will ship tomorrow. What shipping method did you choose? I did the USPS priority.

Just free shipping. They usually don't take too long, this is my third toast (used 2 for previous Moto X's), and they came in fast. I think it's just because this was a brand new product and they released it before the weekend, so they didn't actually start making things till yesterday or today. Best of luck to you and getting yours! I'm looking forward to mine.
I can't decide if I should completely replace the back with the cover or just stick it directly on the back.
Has anyone ordered a custom one from them? I'm thinking about getting one

Finally shipped at 4:30pm CT today. Hoping to maybe get it by Saturday since it's shipping priority via USPS. Saw the other thread where a person already posted pictures, but I will post my own too. Hoping the 8-bit etching turns out good!
Mine arrived a day early, so I installed it today! It looks incredible. Pictures taken with a 2014 Moto X.

Did you just stick it directly onto the original back of the phone? I think I read somewhere that someone had removed the back cover of the phone and replaced it with the Toast cover. That's what I can't decide.. Whether to replace the back cover with the Toast, or just stick it directly to the back. Is it raised any at all on the edges to cause a little annoyance when gripping the phone?
