[Nexus 5 Accessories] slickwraps:
"The fact that sw made a false claim is laughable"

"1A. You are not crazy. The fit is not flawless on the white device. When we designed the skin, we designed it using a Black N5. The white device, while a close match, is by no means a 100% perfect fit. We released the skins with the mindset that, if applied properly, the fit would be about 90%. While we wouldn't call this "good enough", it was the best we could do with so much else going on. Any extra time coding logic into the website for two variants of the N5, or doubling the manufacturing process to accommodate two separate fits, was not feasible. "

Bad experience

ordered the glow in the dark white slickwrap. came pretty early but it didnt come with the sides. i noticed this after applying the front and back pieces already. While waiting for them to send me a replacement, the pieces i already put on were tearing and messed up from not having the sides so i ended up taking them off. When i got the replacement it was just the sides that they never gave me so now i have no slickwrap and they wont answer my emails.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] DowntownJeffBrown:
Lol here's the thing they at least make 2 skins one for the white n5 and one for the black. You guys don't so your making skins that 90% perfect. At least they fixed the issue. So you basically pointed out dbrand for fixing an issue that you refuse to fix. That's just to funny... So your skins are just "good enough" And u find that acceptable.

so this is my second purchase from slickwraps, not to butt-in to the conversation, but i have a white n5 the fit is flawless, minus 1 major detail, not totally sure about the cut out for proximity sensor on the screen piece, but it has done this with both installations. when making a phone call with the screen wrap in place, i cannot for the life of me turn the screen back on. as soon as i make or receive a call the screen goes blank as if it were up to my face. with absolutely no way to turn the screen back on. it was this way with both screen pieces i purchased with the only resolution being to take off the screen. very disappointed... but other than that one issue, shipping speed was amazing this time, and i'm very happy with with slick wraps!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] slickwraps:
Hey There!

Thanks for your purchases! Really appreciate the support.

So would you say it's more than 90% flawless? :) j/k

The front is to precise and if it's not perfect, we're seeing this issue. Please DM me your order # and i'll have a set of replacements sent back out so you have that 360º protection and style.

UV Light will make it POP. The photoluminescent material absorbs UV light and then releases it, the more UV the better.

I got my maple wood skin in today. Overall, its OK so far, though I am a bit disappointed.

The cuts were not finished so while I poked out the filler, there are a few spots with snags like around the sim tray and its opener. The bottom with the open grilles and USB port was perfect, but the one with the covered grilled was really poor and I could tell it would have had a lot of snags from all the poking i'd have to do to open up the vents. I never intended to use that one anyway, so not a huge deal.

Installation went great. Got the screen protector installed no problem and the back was cake along with the sides for the most part. The front went really easy as well, until I tried to make a call and I noticed there was no light going into the light sensor because the hole on the right was not quite big enough. I used a pin to poke it and make it a little bigger, but in pulling the skin back up, it snagged onto the screen as well and then the bubbles popped up :( Tried to salvage the screen but it wasn't happening. Had to take it off and leave my screen naked for the time being.

Recommendation for those installing: When doing the front, do the mic/camera/sensor first, but before you lay it down to the bottom, check the front facing camera and do a test call to make sure lights going into your sensor before finishing up the bottom.

I'd post pictures but I don't have a camera until the wife gets home. I'll be installing her iphone case tonight, hopefully it goes a bit better than mine.

Hi there,

[MENTION=5582214]slickwraps[/MENTION]: I ordered a wood skin for my Nexus 5 cuz I wanted it to look like a wood Moto X. I ordered it in combination with two antibacterial sprays on I think December 30th.

On the Slickwraps website it says shipping began on 01/01/2014 with USPS to Germany, and on the Track my Order Website from USPS it says this:

January 2, 2014

Electronic Shipping Info Received

January 6, 2014 , 11:45 am

Processed through USPS Sort Facility

CHICAGO,*IL*60666*

This is what it says since January 7, now it's January 22....

I know that shipping to Germany takes a while as it said 10-15 business days, but I'm really wondering why it is at the same status quo for now 16 days...

Ah, forgot to mention order number:

#127701

[Nexus 5 Accessories] Wiisper:
I recieved my red carbon today, apart from a small problem with the e because of a piece of material being stuck on the sticky side (see photo) everything was perfect.

Here are some photo's, the ones of the phone are made with a nexus 7 so my apologies for the bad quality (and I maybe could have chosen a better ligtht).
[Nexus 5 Accessories] chronichemp:

[Nexus 5 Accessories] knapz:
I finally got around to installing the front skin and lens. I usually only use a generic black TPU, but decided to go a little different with this phone.

The pictures are not that great and it looks a lot better in person.

Thank you Weston for the multiple packages to get the order right and for the freebies to make it up to me. I'll see about installing the back in the near future.

I'm definately up to trying out one of those new cases you are working on, especially if its in white! :highfive:

So I've read the last few pages of this thread and am wondering if there is still a problem with the wraps not fitting the white N5 correctly? I'm debating on ordering a wrap, especially with the sale, but if it doesn't fit properly, it's a no go.

On a side note, if the wrap is installed correctly, is there an edge to it? I've read both yes and no to that question on various websites. Thanks
[Nexus 5 Accessories] slickwraps:
Hello,

We've never seen anyone complain about the white, I believe that was another competitor.

Not sure what you mean by edge, by nature there is an edge to all wraps. They do lay down and conform the the curves on the N5.

Cases? :D
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Wiisper:
After making some phone calls I noticed that the promoxity sensor doesn't work, a test app confirms this, the sensor is stuck on always near with the skin installed. I think this is caused by the fact that I installed the front wrap on top of a glass screen protector which adds a little distance between the wrap and the sensor.

Is there any way to buy a front wrap which has a more elongated hole across the promoxity- and light sensor just like the screen protector has? This really bugs me out because I'm unable to end a phone call myself.

Took off my blue glow skin. It turns out that my phone is always in my pocket so it never absorbs any light to glow in the dark.

I applied my wood back and I like it a lot. I installed it slightly crooked but I have to deal since I learned with the glow back that there is no taking it off without destroying the lettering. Oh well. Looks great inside my black ringke fusion. Pics to come.

Hi Wiisper,

Due to the high caliper in precision even the slightest bit of out of alignment will cause this issue. We are currently testing a new front wrap that would accommodate for variances of OEM manufacturing and alignment of the wrap. With that said I will have a Ver.2 front sent to you immediately. Please DM me your order #.

Hey Robin,

We still show this left USA borders via Chicago on the 6th via the supplied tracking #. Generally, we see these hitting people in Germany within 1 week. However, sometimes due to customs, etc we see that it can take up to 4 weeks. I will continue to monitor this and will reach back out later this week to confirm delivery status.

Hello,

There sometimes is no rime or reason why shipment delays happen. It can be a combination of processing, shipping and customs clearance. Note, tracking is not an international tracking #. Germany has yet to be added to USPS tracking capabilities. They are slated to be added in the 2nd QTR of 2014.

Hello,

Your order is scheduled to be reshipped since you have yet to receive your replacement sides. Generally, for reshipments we do not provide tracking so we have no record of it's current destination. We have escalated this to international tracking to resolve any future issues with arrival. I should have tracking information tomorrow.

Hello,

Thanks for your interest in SW! :)

I do recommend checking out our install vid and the thousands of review vids on YouTube. The proprietary photoluminescent "Glow in Dark" is true state of the art in the way it absorbs light and later releases that energy to produce the glow effect.

Brightness of a product is measured in mcd/m2, but this can sometimes be misleading because the brightness of glow in the dark products depend on how much light it has absorbed (charging capacity). Testing glow products is not the same as testing electrical lamps because the later produces a fixed light output and requires no pre-charge. This is why we do not use mcd/m2 to grade our glow products, but instead state the number of hours it can glow.

Charging time for glow in the dark products depend on the light source and its brightness. The best light source for charging glow products are those with UV rays in them. Examples would be sunlight or UV black light. However, a few minutes in basic led or incandescent will charge the glow in dark material for a few hours of glow.

Some users have reported waking up in the morning with their wrap still glowing on their nightstand. :)

Just got the blue carbon decal; came across this forum and thought I'd personalize my N5 a bit. Have to say it fits really nicely and looks hella cool! It shows a small white border around the edges of the decal (I have white N5) which actually sets off the blue quite well. I held the phone up near my gas fireplace to soften the decal a bit and it helped me get a really smooth fit/adherence. Good product for under $10!
