Slickwraps white matte review

Just received my order for 3 wraps (Matte White, Gunmetal Carbon fibre, Cork, lens protector, cleaner spray). Ordered 11/7, arrived 23/7.

Came in bubble wrapped envelope. All ok except for the Cork. The surface of the cork was stuck onto the packaging. Surface of the cork is already pretty irregular, so the wrap isn't greatly affected, but still isn't good.

Also, the lens protector is quite average. You can see in the image below that it's not perfectly clear. Even though I thought I installed it well, there seems to be bubbles and some sort of irregularity/marks on it. It seems almost identical to the lens protector that came with the Nillkin glass screen protector I bought (lens protector not glass).

Slickwrap itself:

The white matte is as it says: white and matte. The material marks/scratches quite easily. It got slightly marked just from the application process.

Can just see it in this photo:

All in all, it's quite nice and I'll keep this on for a few weeks and perhaps will then change to one of the other 2 wraps that I bought.

Installation was pretty straightforward: line it up carefully and press down. If you make a mistake and haven't fully stuck it down, it's easy to just pull it off and start again or readjust. I used a heat gun at low setting to get perfect sides. Without the heat gun, it wouldn't have stuck down properly. With the heat gun it was a piece of cake.

Here's a heap of photos. (Nillkin glass protector on screen)

Hope this helps someone...

Edit: photo links died. PM me if you want to see.

Had anyone got their chrome skin? I ordered June 13th I've been told they can't give me an eta since they don't know when they will receive them. Per their rep on their site
[One (M8) Accessories] Tower1972:
Not yet..still patiently waiting...ordered the same day as you :)... I really want my lens covers too but since I ordered those on the same transaction as the chrome...still waiting on those also
[One (M8) Accessories] EliTlake:
In an attempt to ease your mind--the lense protectors really aren't anything to write home about, and in my opinion negatively affect picture quality. If your lense appears to be scratched it is actually just a coating that can be wiped away with a drop of alcohol, a Q-tip, and some elbow grease. My lense is scratch-free after about a month following the removal of the coating and without the Slickwraps lense protectors.
[One (M8) Accessories] EliTlake:
Can anybody post a picture of the matte naked on their M8?
[One (M8) Accessories] Oditius:
OK, so no tracking available more than 35 hours later. And I did email you about the chrome wraps. And of course, it's no change.

1) Tracking - Tracking information is not available at this time. Please check back later or double-check the tracking number entered and try again.

2) email - A reply is not available at this time. Please check back later.

So anything new? :confused:
[One (M8) Accessories] Oditius:
48 hours after tracking info given and still no info. I guess it doesn't matter, my Chinese screen protector with its lens covers come in today, so I guess I just wasted my money on this. Thinking that it is only two little pieces of plastic and could have been put in a regular envelope and dropped in the mail box.
[One (M8) Accessories] bleedscarlet:
Just jumping in to say the official HTC Dock does NOT play will with slickwraps. I finally bit the bullet and bought one, and I had to remove the bottom pieces and use an x-acto to cut the sides off of the back.

It BARELY fits. It takes some muscle, and I wasn't a fan. Removed the slickwrap, I had leather. I have a spare purple carbon fiber that I'm going to try just the back for, because I really like having a textured back, but I'm note hopeful.

This dock is pretty annoying. I hate that it's the only one available of this quality for this phone.
[One (M8) Accessories] MoDriouch:
Well, i'm really dissapointed with Slickwraps. I have ordered a chrome skin on the 6th of July and at this moment still haven't received anything.

Yesterday i've contacted Slickwraps via the website and I got a reply that the material is still on backorder & no ETA available. How is it possible that I received an email on the 7th of July that my order has been SHIPPED? I do understand that some types of products take some time longer because its exclusivity, but why do I have to ask first before I know that it's in backorder?

Ordernr. 210032

Try reading the thread before you post something that has been said over ten times.
[One (M8) Accessories] MoDriouch:
I've read the thread. Wont change my post at all. I ordered via the website and came here to tell the Slickwraps crew how I feel about their service, i'm guessing they'll understand me better than sending a message via the website.
[One (M8) Accessories] EliTlake:
First off, I never had told you to change your post. Secondly, Slickwraps probably won't understand you any better on this thread as suppose to their website being your complaint isn't hard to comprehend in the first part. I say this just because the thread is getting stale due to all the repeat complaints about the same issue. Weston, and Slickwraps have stated multiple times that the delay is due to a backorder, or lack of material. You aren't doing yourself, or anybody else any favors by your post.

[One (M8) Accessories] MoDriouch:
LOL. Well i'm doing myself a favor. Since it is the right topic (Hence SLICKWRAPS FOR m8), and i am being on-topic, so i don't see what i'm doing wrong. Maybe my complaint will change the situation at slickwraps? Maybe after all the repeated complaints (like you said), Slickwraps will send us an email with information before complaining? Who are you to judge?
[One (M8) Accessories] Oditius:
Dang, you are right, I looked closer and I guess I got a couple numbers transposed. OK, this is cool, I will have yours and the Chinese pair to compare side by side. USPS isn't known for it's dependability. And when I clicked on the tracking number in the email, it brought me to the USPS website, but it didn't show anything. I will get them tomorrow. Thanks, now lets put some fire under those Chrome suppliers.... But it isn't that important to me as the lens cover was. :good:
[One (M8) Accessories] iKoolkid:
He's here to judge that no, you're complaint won't change anything about it since its not directly their issue, it is the materials manufacturer. Also, I think it's rather difficult to obtain all the emails of everyone who ordered chrome wraps and email them, hence when I brought it up, they had to ask for my email. Also, what you are doing here is practically saying "there's a problem! They said this, blank happened, I'm not happy" etc. Pretty much for a couple dozen pages this issue has been addressed and discussed, and they know. Don't try and say "maybe my complaint will change things" because one, you've said pretty much the same things we have, making yourself sound like you're trying to seem important, because maybe your complaint might fix this, although everyone else has done the same, maybe yours will miraculously be more "important" than ours and it can change an issue which is out of their reach. Think of this issue as a tub of water, where all these complaints are water drops. One more won't drastically change how much there is. And if you think yours is the one to make it overflow and get someone's attention, you're wrong cause that person already has it but can't do anything about it.

EDIT: Also, what you're doing is equivalent to reporting a bug on a ROM on a thread about the Rom, except that it's been reported dozens of times and there are efforts underway to fix it. No one wants redundancy.

[One (M8) Accessories] EliTlake:
I may be blind, but I don't really see where I judged you, or as a matter of fact anything. I will however apologize if I offended you. I am in the same boat as you and everybody else, but felt complaining, and insulting Slickwraps would get me, and the situation nowhere. I do realize I have overstepped my boundary in suggesting you do the same.

p.s the address in the account is in nyc but that address actually forwards it to me in dubai ! so yes slickwraps is spreading out here , wish there is a proper way to get in touch with you guys besides email to see if we can somehow conduct business and have you shipping in bulk out here !

I've been reading since day 4... sooo interested since the beginning but had all the regular reservations. That and the fact that I'm so bad at being nifty and nimble so I've been dreading screwing up. I'm just a sorry ass perfectionist gah!

But, looking to how Weston has been handling this, I've finally bit the bullet. Someone trying deserves my monies - I'm in business myself and know what it's like. I've ordered the Black Leather Alligator and the Chrome LE. I would like the "Google Suede" but don't know how to go about it? Do I get some goodies? :)

Order# 212861

Please guys, check my products quality wise as returning is something hard for me these days as my wife and kid are seriously ill (the latter, as in deathbed) far away and it is taking up all my time. One of the wraps I'm gonna take for my wife. Also let me know in honesty how long shipping should take. I don't want them "urgent!! my life depends on my toy!!" but it's nice to know the truth and get yourself mentally ready :) I'm in NW, UK

Hey Weston,

I was wondering if you had any plans on releasing a full body naked wrap, with the same coverage as the carbon wraps. I love the protection that the carbon series provides, but sometimes would like the M8's metal back to shine through. If so, I would be interested.

[One (M8) Accessories] iamonfire:
finally just received the envelop by mail, after 1 month. The customs has hold this for 2 weeks and I need to pay 21 EUR to the Belgium custom for this. So if you live in Belgium and want to order, take this to account.

But Weston, I'm missing 2 pieces from my order. The Chrome one (which I understand that there are still problems with it.) and the Stickerbomb version. Both items are marked with some blue marker on your packing list. I just send you an email with my order number, can you reply to this once you verified what went wrong? Many thanks.

ps: I hope I don't need to pay another 21 EUR to customs once you those 2 wraps to me... :confused:
[One (M8) Accessories] OsirisPrime:
I've got (almost) exactly the same problem as you have.

Received an envelop of SW containing just a part of my order (the chrome wraps were also missing) but as the customs slip had the full value on it (including the missing chrome wraps), I had to pay a lot tax and customs duties.

Now I'm also hoping I don't have to pay again for the chrome wraps once they will be sent. :mad: :confused:

Just chiming in to report about the quality of the wrap I got.. I have the Black Carbon Fiber, and today, my idiot of a friend tried putting on a hard Cover on my phone. That resulted in the strip above the volume rocker and the sim tray being pulled up and stretched right up to the screen. I was very worried, but I just used a hairdryer and stuck it right back in place, and wondrously, it stuck perfectly, all the stretched material went back to it's normal size :D Amazing!

On a brand new phone, should you install the screen protector first, then the skin, or skin first, then the SP?

Also, I bought a glow in the dark blue; does it "charge itself" in the day light, or, do you need to put it under a lamp for awhile to "charge it up"?

thanks!

Order doesnt matter but I recommend skin first then SP.

As for the skin, it charges under any light but if you put it under a lamp you will see faster results
