Just got an email this morning, slickwraps has released their skins for our Nexus 6. They seem to have a pretty good selection of colors and styles from the quick look I gave the web site. I've used their carbon fiber and wood tones on my Nexus 5. They make a great product. I just wanted to share this new option for anyone looking to protect their nice, new device.
Heres a link to the website.
https://slickwraps.com/devices/phones/android/google-nexus-6.html
I've ordered a black carbon fiber and a zebra wood, both full coverage. I'll add pic's of them and probably the zebra wood installed when they come in.
Link https://slickwraps.com/yellow-color-wraps-skins-for-nexus-9.html
Link says nexus 9 but it has both 6 and 9
30% off with code "holiday"
I love how it goes down I to the dimple but has the M cutout
I ordered back only in black carbon.. Should look nice under the UAG casw

Just ordered matte black back for $6.99 shipped. Hoping its a little trippy.
Making the dimple with that M cutout is a smart decision on their part and same with the frame coverage.
I hate that M symbol though and prefer to have it covered. Frame coverage is also smart but might be useless for some people.
Interested to see how these turn out.
Checking it out! Thanks! https://slickwraps.com/devices/phones/android/google-nexus-6.html
Grabbed the black carbon back for $7. Good deal.
I'll give it a try despite my poor experience with them before. I just want my blue carbon....
I got a black and matte black. Thanks for the notice about the discount code.
I would avoid this company if you want one in a reasonable time frame. I ordered a week ago, and still have no shipping info.

I'm not surprised, they were bad in the past. I hope they stop being slow with shipping and fixing issues but usually they just don't care.
So I ordered mine last last week on the 23rd... So according to you guys I won't be getting this anytime soon? . Well my phone won't ship till the 7th of Jan according to Mot, so let's hope to see it by then at the same time .

Its very possible that it was shipped out. If I don't hear anything I may cancel my order. I'll give them some time first.
Are there any video tutorials on how to install these effectively?

Dbrand is usually very good at fixing mistakes and shipping out on time. I got my last order in 5 days from the time it shipped. I ordered on 12/20, shipped 12/22 and it arrived 12/27. I'm in the Northeastern US and its coming from Ontario so that's not bad at all.
I ordered on the 23rd and haven't heard a peep..not even an email since.
Kinda frustrating not having any communication and not knowing
The ONLY reason I ordered this instead of the d brand is because I like the M cutout
Might try to cancel

I ordered it just because they had blue carbon, bow that I ordered my dbrand one and SW still hasn't emailed me I'm considering canceling my order.
Edit: it's been 7 days now officially so I opened a dispute via Paypal let's see if they refund me.
Edit 2: here is what they said about not updating anyone regarding the orders
Not sure what planet you live on but you ordered on 7:00pm on the 23rd and the following days we're XMAS eve, XMAS and a weekend. Get a grip.

Hey Jon,
I do see you indeed purchased on Dec 23, 2014 7:30:09 PM and we we're closed most of last week.
Regardless, sorry for the delay and problem. I will have this refunded asap, if you happen to receive your order "I show it went out this morning" keep it as a gift.
Thank You,

Hi All,
I was able to obtain some free TF protector samples from a manufacturer friend of mine. Was wondering if anyone would be interested in getting one for free in exchange for a review?
Correction: Factory is in Taiwan, warehouses around the world. Here is their website: http://jcm7635.myweb.hinet.net/. It's one of the highest quality protectors I've seen which is why I wanted to get more samples.
Previously, I made a thread comparing this protector with one from Viewguard which I was quite disappointed with and it costs $20.
An iPad prototype was used when I first made the comparison, but they now have the correct TF dimensions.
I will try to update more pics when I get home today. There are no bubbles along the edges now after I applied the correct TF protector.
Anyone interested?
Edit: PM me your address!
Edit 2 9/22: Update with pics taken 5 min ago. Now that I looked at it carefully, I'm surprised it hasn't picked up any scratches or bubbles after 4 months.
Edit 3 9/23: I got all your PM and addresses. I should be able to ship to US and CA. For those international, I will have to check the shipping rates. Today, I was able to get the actual retails units with instructions and packaging. I will send them out either today or tomorrow morning.
Edit 4 9/24: I've gotten more requests than I initially expected, so I've already shipped all samples I have on hand today. But I was able to get my supplier to provide second batch coming in Tue/Wed.
Please post reviews in this thread; videos would be great! Thanks!
Due to overwhelming demand, I cannot accepted anymore requests after Sunday 9/25 12:00 AM PST!
hey, i wouldnt mind a sample in exchange for a review, had the invisie shield that i removed because it was prone to smudges and screen wasnt smooth on the fingers
ok, PM your address. I'll try to have it shipped tomorrow.
im in. Need my address?
Hell, I'd pay and still review
I'm in though, just got this thing, and forgot about getting a screen protector
id most definetly be interested, got a bunch of little kids to keep the tf safe from!
I'm game! I'd post a video
I'd be happy to try one and review it if there are any left.
i have some samples just sitting on my desk. so PM me your address!

First and foremost....I got my Prime today. Its perfect. No light leakage...No WIFI issues, GPS works, No loose screen, Update took 5 minutes and had no issues. Keep the faith people...There are good primes out there...We just see a majority of the issues here on the forums.
Now to the order of business. I am a seasonal Best Buy employee (Senior at Purdue University who works here during christmas...mainly for the sick employee discount). You CAN CURRENTLY get the Grey dock at ANY Best Buy store. They are still not available to order online and you will not find the device in the store that day, but they are obtainable. The process is as follows.
1) Simply walk into said Best Buy.
2) Head to the computer department and find someone who does not look stupid.
3) Tell them you would like to do an OMS order for the Asus transformer prime dock.
4) They will say they cant do it and cant find a SKU.
5) Give them this sku: 4175048
6) They will be able to OMS ship either to that store...or to your house.
7) Wait a week or so, depending on when you order...(Our trucks come from the Chicago warehouse every Thusday night so it totally depends on when that store gets shipments from its warehouse)
8) Recieve your dock ahead of schedule.
This does work as I have done it for myself and have a dock on our truck due this Thursday the 5th.
Just as a quick update on the units themselves...I have just today started to see them moving through RSS (our investory software). Only 2 of them were shipped to the largest store in central Indiana which I bet are OMS or some sort of .Com orders. You are not able to OMS the actual tablet.
-Quix.
I will try this tomorrow. If it works, you are awesome. Thanks!
Wtf, why not. Ups usually doesn't arrive till about 5 pm so I have some free time thanks!
Ill kiss you if this works. Tired of missing online stocks that run out in <20 minutes.
Is this able to be done over the phone with your local Best Buy store? :O
Thanks for this appreciate it but I do hate to inform you your GPS may work from a technical standpoint( like everyone's) but will not work as a real world practical turn by turn navigation device.
You should indeed be able to do this over the phone assuming you are ok giving them your credit card information over the phone as well.

I owe you a kiss. On the truck for the 10th. The guy was pretty adamant about them not having anything at any best buy. I told him to check the sku for ****s and giggles and he told me there were actually 128. dont know if that was for the store or all of bestbuy, but its one less now. Thanks for the heads up.
Worked for me. Estimated delivery date Jan 9 - Jan 12
And you guys are sure they are sending you the Amethyst one and not the Champagne one?

As of 8 minutes ago I have a transformer prime, although I'm at work and haven't seen it (in person) yet. @OP any word when they will have them instock at the stores because I am leaving at the end of the week. If I would do this today would they have it by Friday? Or am I better of to wait and do it next week?

Depends on when they get their weekly inventory shipments in. Usually less than a week, but they can tell you if you call. My bestbuy is on Tuesdays, Quix says Chicago's is Friday, etc.

How would one go about doing this on the phone? I ordered my prime over the phone, because I had to do financing, because for some reason I couldn't find out how to do it online. I was transfered about 4 times to different departments until I was connected with someone who ordered my prime and let me do financing.
So if I want to get the keyboard, and use the "magic OMS word," would I call the 1-8xx number? (I don't know it off the top of my head) And once I call, who do I ask to talk to?

Even if it takes a week or so to ship, would rather they take the money and stop me from spending it
Now i just gotta get their playstore to respond so i can get my details submitted.
I imagine this is simply them implementing a pre-order system as opposed to being able to deliver any stock. Works for me though. With my hours as a chef chances are every time it came into stock i'd be unable to grab one

Haha, I had auto refresh on to notify me when it came in stock while I was watching tv! Ordered mine and came here to tell everybody but appears other people already got the word out
16gb ordered! Had been after the 32gb originally but i don't play any intensive games, as such large games, i have a computer for that, i have my music on my phone on a 32gb sd card, and anything i desperately need that won't fit on the thing i can keep on an sd card with OTG cable This is mainly just a machine for at home and occasionally on the coach or in the tent etc, so seemed daft to spend an extra £70 for a measly increase in memory.
I will in UK 2more weeks. Do you think google will ship it sooner than 2weeks?
saw somewhere on the www the delivery time in the US is 3-5 business days...it'll be nice to have my hands on it sooner but it doesn't matter as long as i know mines on order.
I hope there are still some left in the morning when the guy who orders stuff at work gets my email.

The number of refreshes, and in the end having to use internet explorer intsead of chrome, just to place the order, let alone the 2-3 week shipping time, google are not filling me with hope, I really would have expected better from one of the bigger companies in the world.

How do you check? I had a look on Google Wallet under transactions and it says nothing about 2-3 weeks, pending etc... The only thing i can see is
Delivery (Two Day): £9.99
Which i assume is the charge only.
Just ordered mine this morning and everything went through OK
I suspect the 2-3 weeks is just Google covering their backsides and expect some will be delivered earlier.

i had the same thing, called them this morning and the adviser said that the money was only in the 'authorization' and wont be debited from the a/c till after it is shipped. but bottom line is that part of my credit limit is not available to me anymore so they might as well have taken it.

Lol, I ordered the same one and the game stick thing. I ordered 2 days ago, but havent heard squat since. I know it says like 5 day delivery, but I would have thought some type of correspondence on the order by now?? Looks like DHL is coming up strong on people's phone orders, so maybe they will come through on this also...
Yeah I'm not sure what's going on with them. I ordered more than a week ago and when I asked them they just told me not to worry and that they will ship soon.
My order was placed Nov 11 . Haven't back from them
Got refunded from them finally after giving me the runaround.
I'm soon returning my mate 20 pro and have ordered a mate 20x to replace it. I purchased some plastic screen protectors (never opened) that are meant to work with the fingerprint sensor and a clear case that I will no longer need after I post it back. If anyone wants them if you will cover the postage they are yours.
screen protectors cost me £7.99 from amazon I think case was £4
If your in the UK I guess around £2 postage should cover it. Will post around 1st of december. Let me know if your interested.
