Mine finally came in!!! Now to choose between copper and titanium
[Nexus 6P Accessories] adrman:
Well, it showed up in today's mail. The 14th business day. Just like the old days.... Light a cigarette and the food comes... make a rant in a public forum and the skin shows up. ;) I still won't give props to their shipping, but the product seems to be of excellent quality.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] vomer:
stop the striptease!! :rolleyes: :mad:
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Olddog828:
:good:

Looks great!. My package came today and will work on it in morning. Got the Mahogany back for mine excited to put it on an see how it looks

:)

Post pictures ;)
[Nexus 6P Accessories] konman795:
Photos!

Got mine in. Here are photos! Matte black back, sides and camera with white matte logo and colored x. Using mine with a Ringke Fusion clear case. Oh and aluminum Nexus 6P

Enjoy!
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Rickroller:
Finally got both my skin and Ringke case today! The install was a little trickier than I expected, but I'm happy with how it all turned out

Don't mind the sh*tty photo, was taken with my HTC One M8 :p
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Ulver:
Ok, the black matte install was jacked. An edge kept coming off because I was slightly off on the install, so I had to scrap it. I also ordered a white matte, and it went much smoother. You almost need to order a couple just to learn it. The install video did help.

Sent from my Xperia Z3
[Nexus 6P Accessories] thetonyclifton:
Matte white, matte white lettering apart from the 'x' which is matte black as is the camera visor.

Great fit and finish OEM+
[Nexus 6P Accessories] FLUFFYMANGOES:
i think my dbrand skin is defective. do you guys have cuts extending past the logo? on mine, right next to the curve of the "e" its cut and touches the x logo. i noticed that when putting it in my pocket it sticks out and collects lint and peels off a little :(
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Rox598:
Got mine today

Kinda screwed up the frame instal for some reason there is always a gap

The nexus lettering doesn't quite fill the cut outs on the "n" either

May just take off the frame skin tbh
[Nexus 6P Accessories] xxsashixx:
I cannot for the life of me line up the letters on my graphite :(
[Nexus 6P Accessories] rlukas79:
received mine today. I got three sceens and all sorts of nexus coloring. Thanks to Dbrand hooking me up.

This is titanium with white/red/yellow for the nexus coloring.

I also had to double up on the visor skin because of the lip that the back skin made around the camera visor. Doubling on on the skin made it just about seemless
[Nexus 6P Accessories] thetonyclifton:
I considered adding another skin to the visor to pad it up too. Haven't yet though.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] rice923:
Did any one here get both Dbrand and slickwraps? I know Pilz did and prefers Dbrand, but anyone else? I have SW and want to make the jump over to Dbrand if the guy and finish are better. I'm not completely satisfied with what I have right now. I'm a bit of a perfectionist
[Nexus 6P Accessories] thetonyclifton:
I have to be honest yes, I prefer the dbrand I received. The installation was easier due to the integrated (temporary) camera visor which came on the dbrand back skin. It means the flimsy strip at the top retains its shape until stuck. Sharper lines on the dbrand too.

I am going to give a slickwrap another go for the N6P but my experience this year and for Nexus 5 is that dbrand has an edge on quality and finish.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] rice923:
Yes, I have a huge gripe about the flimsy visor piece you mentioned. My SW is now mounted slightly off because of the flimsiness, which means I have an obnoxiously catchy edge around one side of the visor.

Anyone else, please chime in if you've had both brands.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] davey11:
Ah crap, I ordered slickwraps white carbon. Concensus is dbrand is better eh? At least its not $100. Dam :/

6p ?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
I got skins from both. Still waiting on my Dbrand order to arrive. Will do a comparison when they do.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] rice923:
I have their white carbon installed right now. Check the SW thread for my review with lots of pics
[Nexus 6P Accessories] davey11:
Thanks I feel better. Just concerned a bit about the thin piece above the visor and how to make it sit right w/o the temp spacer like the above poster mentioned. Not throwing it away or anything, just would have liked to have the (perceived) better one.

6p ?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] rice923:
Just take your time on the installation. Some have had great success. Just wish I had the wisdom before doing this first one
[Nexus 6P Accessories] boynamedstacy:
That definitely looks like it was torn during installation or when it was removed from the paper backing, that isn't a cut from production. It's easy to tear if your not careful, that's a really thin spot. I know because I've done it before on my nexus 6 skin :rolleyes: Best thing to do at this point is to hit it with a hair dryer and use something rigid to get it to lay flat. Go easy or it'll rip more.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Olddog828:
Got it put on today, wasn't that bad to put on, just my shaky hands and old eyes failed me on some things... Pictures may not be greatest but should give an idea how the Mahogany looks.

Found that i definitely need to get the camera cover, with out it there is too much of an edge left and the one thing that didn't work for me was all the fill pieces for the edge were same size so couldn't fill the gap left and had to cut a small piece to finish it. Overall I give it a 8.5 out of 10 for Dbrands cover. Great options and not bad delivery time (only thing I didn't get the microfiber cleaning cloth, but have tons of those).
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Lepa79:
Looks like a perfect installation to me. Nice work. Ya, I did get the camera cover and loving mine.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] rice923:
That silver titanium... Damnnnnnnnnn

So schmexy

I'm thinking of ordering either that or the copper/bronze one. This is killing me
[Nexus 6P Accessories] halfez:
Any one have any pictures of the black leather and how it feels?

Can't decide to get black leather or Matt black
[Nexus 6P Accessories] nextgin:
I purchased one of these, and it doesn't fit properly around the camera area. The sides won't lay flat on the bends.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] pharaohdk:
Been waiting 19 days for my skin now.

don´t really matter since release date for the phone in sweden keeps changing :(
[Nexus 6P Accessories] thetonyclifton:
Don't get me wrong, dont think you will be disappointed provided you take your time and install properly and use a hair dryer. Just that in my experience dbrand is a slighter better product, gets the little things and installation options and guides right. Postage times seem to bring both of them down :)
[Nexus 6P Accessories] KKWT:
Thanks for the white matte pictures! I was really contemplating whether to get it or not, the texture on the matte wraps isn't as bad as i thought although i do prefer if it was just smooth with no texture. I'll probably get the skin a little later on with the coloured x once I get tired of the aluminum back. I really wished they provided more colours for their skins though.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] thetonyclifton:
The matte white skin feels pretty smooth to me. Possibly slightly better grip to it which for me is a plus.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ylexot:
Did you use a hair dryer like you were supposed to?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] johninsf:
This looks great. Was it difficult getting on straight? I watched the video and it looks easy but never is for me.

I am considering the exact same combo.

Sent from my N6P - M 6.0
[Nexus 6P Accessories] blue23dragon4:
Got my Dbrand Skin last night, I found it difficult to install and had a bit of issue with it above the camera sensor.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] johninsf:
Looks great! Was the video helpful? Did you use the hair dryer?

Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] blue23dragon4:
Yes, the video was very helpful. I did use the hair dryer and followed all instructions but the top right corner still doesn't stick properly. I have contacted them and I am hoping I could get maybe 25% off my next order so I could order a replacement.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] sitnlow4life:
Still waiting for mine ... November 9th ship date

I'm in Detroit , should have just drove to Toronto , this makes no sense
[Nexus 6P Accessories] shadymouse:
The application wasn't too bad, the video really helped. You definitely need a Hair Dryer and you have to pay extra attention to the edges. Once the edges are locked down, you're pretty much all set.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Powell730:
I got mine in the mail last night, shipping took FOREVER like others have said. I'll post pics later when I have a camera available. Install went relatively smooth, followed the dBrand install video which I found to be helpful. Mine came bent a little, and they sent the front only of my Note 5 when I ordered the back only... So I'll be contacting them to fix these issues.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Lepa79:
Okay, I'm back with more pictures. Still loving it.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
The Nexus has been a massive exercise in patience. It took over 35 days for the phone to arrive, 3 to 5 weeks for most of my accessories, and I'm still waiting on my Dbrand order... Preordered my skins the 2nd day the 6P site came up.

Starting to lose patience with this.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Powell730:
Install went perfect and love the look.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] rice923:
That's the price of being early adopters. But I still love this phone[emoji106]
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
True, and I do too. Just... Grrrrrrr. You know? Hehehe
[Nexus 6P Accessories] rice923:
Indeed grrr. I still want a backless bumper which apparently seems too difficult to make [emoji19]

My favorite piece of phone protection I've ever owned was a $2 generic bumper for my last Moto x. I can't bear to put a case on such a sleek phone with pretty vinyls. It's like putting on make up and then wearing a motorcycle helmet. Not that I'd ride without a helmet (for those impressionable kids reading this[emoji6] )
[Nexus 6P Accessories] johninsf:
Nice.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Razzleb:
man that looks good. im sold
[Nexus 6P Accessories] tracerit:
do the dbrand skins cover all the way to the chamfered edge? or does it stop just short (something like .5mm)?

I have a Stickerboy skin now and it goes out to the edge and then slightly a bit more and grabing the phone while it's face down will usually have me lifting the edge of the skin. The skin doesn't lift itself but I fear it will.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Leica MP:
That's look great.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] thetonyclifton:
Pretty close, definitely not over the edge if installed properly. Dbrand has the most precise cuts, no question. You can kind of feel the edge a little if you look for it but either I stop noticing or it rubs smooth. Either way nothing that would catch a pocket, dust or debris, nothing like that.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] AndyCr15:
Fitted mine today...

[youtube]1dUuZguJnAc[/youtube]
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
That is certainly yellow! Did you get that side piece and N straightened out?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] warplane95:
Dbrand sent me a 2nd order friday because I have never received my first order, well. Today I have received my first order.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Yeah, I got mine today after having bemoaned the terrible wait yesterday. Oh well.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] vomer:
:eek: :eek:
[Nexus 6P Accessories] AndyCr15:
Fixed the N, left the side.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
I ask as I am curious if it was difficult making corrections to the placement of the side sticker. Looks like the N would need replaced with another piece, but I was hoping the side could be lifted off and repositioned. Yes?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Pilz:
You can lift and reposition the lettering granted you are careful
[Nexus 6P Accessories] pedxing:
Got mine today and the install went well. Carbon fiber and used the titanium letter inserts. Now I'm all CF along with my other recent acquisition. [emoji1]
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Nice! Looks good.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Leica MP:
anyone get the matt black or titianium black for the camera?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Pilz:
Look back through the past 5 pages. There are numerous pictures of both of those.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] cnsviet:
Just a bit of a custom job. Not perfect but it'll do for now.

- I'm not sure how well those small pieces would last. Specifically the small part by the sim card tray seems like it doesn't stick well and the small bar below the sim card for mine seems like it can come off easily if you rub it sideways.

Overall, I'm pretty happy. I just hope those side pieces last.

Note: That's a metal plate sticking on the back because I like to mount my device in my car via magnets.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] vtex23:
Leather back, matte camera/nexus/sides/front. First DBrand skin and I'll definitely be purchasing again.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] rice923:
How did you manage to get the metal plate under the skin with all the edges still lining up perfectly? That's pretty amazing
[Nexus 6P Accessories] darkamikaze:
Haha ya a bit surprised too. I think the top is slightly 1mm off? which was enough for it to touch the bottom correctly.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] onebelo:
I was planning to do the same since I had the magnet car vent mount as well. Ended up using the Kenu vent mount instead though so I wouldn't have to use the plate. Yours came out good though!
[Nexus 6P Accessories] pharaohdk:
My skins arrived yesterday too, the back skin seem to have gotten bend slightly in shipping. I hope it wont show when putting on the phone.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] BartLuke94:
For the people who have bought also the frame's skin. How is the application?

[Nexus 6P Accessories] gqukyo:
I never thought to use back skins to keep the magnet on the back. Think I'll try that. Lol
[Nexus 6P Accessories] warplane95:
I also did that yesterday afternoon.

sorry for the ****ty picture.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Powell730:
How does the skin/case fit with a magnet on there? The magnet looks fairly large too...
[Nexus 6P Accessories] warplane95:
Are you talking about the metal backplate? the magnet is not in this picture.

Yeah, I missed up the centering of the metal backplate.

this is just a test skin btw. but I'm glad it went well.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Powell730:
Yeah sorry, the metal. Either way tho.. Seems like the case and skin wouldn't fit properly with that there.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] warplane95:
the case and skin fit properly, in the picture, I have my spigen ultrahybrid case.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Big Cam:
I am so disappointed in this product. I'll admit it looks awesome, but it is not functional at all. The back skin fits pretty close except around the camera part, no matter how close you get it, it's eventually going to peel up, since it overlaps the glass part of the camera, just ever so slightly.

The frame skin looks cool, but will not last more than a week, I'd guess. It is so easy to catch on things and it is alot thicker than I thought it'd be. Even with the 3 middle parts they gave me, I still have a slight gap that I could not fix, I used the biggest of the 3 and it's still just a hair short. I have a clear hard case that I spent a great deal of care getting it on after the skin was applied so I think mine will last quite a while since the skin won't be going in and out of a pocket. It's also worth nothing that the skin is so think, my case barely fits anymore, I actually have a few stress cracks on it, the fit is now so tight. Also I almost ripped off the frame skin, just getting it into the case, I had to use a plastic smugger to prop the case over the skin, it was a hassle.

The nexus letters actually fit down flush, but still, I foresee these catching on something over time and getting pulled out easily.

In short, these look amazing, but are the least practical of anything you could put on your phone for protection, and I felt like I had to be even more careful with it, with the skin on, to make sure I never let it catch on anything.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] zige:
I ordered this. Didn't want anything on front because it looks ugly if something has front of it and also because i have tempered glass coming.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] static416:
Yeah it's weird, I've never had problems receiving their stuff in the past.

But this time the first shipment got lost. And the second one hasn't arrived yet and it's been almost a week. And I live in the same city it ships from (Toronto), so I don't know what is going on.

Seems like most other people aren't having issues, so maybe it's just bad luck.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] FLUFFYMANGOES:
this is why I love Dbrand. No questions asked free replacement. For slickwraps, If I sent in my complaint they wouldve asked me for my address probably some pictures. Yeah its a few extra steps but dbrand just makes everything so much more convenient. Dbrand is the only way to go :good::good:
[Nexus 6P Accessories] borsin:
Could you share the link to the magnet you're using?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] zige:
That's nothing mate... :p Mine on this year, only which i can remember: 3xSamsung S6 (black, gold & blue topaz), S6 Edge, 2xNote 4; 4xNexus 6 (both blue and white); 3xLG G4 (black and red leather, black plastic); Moto X Style, Sony Xperia Z3, Z3+, Z5, Z5 Premium; Oppo R5s; Huawei Honor 7, Huawei P8, Mate 7, Mate S; Xiaomi Mi Note Pro; HTC M9; Marshall London; OnePlus Two, OnePlus X. Tablets: Nexus 9, Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet, Samsung Tab S2 and some watches.

Now i only have Nexus 6P and Samsung Galaxy Tab S2. I came from Moto X Style to Nexus 6P. I tried for a over year to look perfect phone so which have great amount of custom roms, kernels etc. other things, great hardware and good looking. Until Nexus 6P i found it and i haven't even though changing this one :p

Same was here on your neighbour country Finland. First it was 09.11. but then "somewhere on end of november". Well i still got mine on 17.11. :) Firts path what was arrived to Finland... Lycka till! Du kommer att älska det!
[Nexus 6P Accessories] zige:
Yup... I think longest time which i kept one phone was with blue Galaxy S6, about 1 month... But with 6P i think i will stay until next Nexus if it will be gorgeus as this one.. Just waiting my Dbrand to come... Decided to order from Dbrand because better customisation... Slickwraps has everytime shipped in one day and arrived here in 5-7 days but let's see how's Dbrand come... So far it has been 52 hours from my first order and still nothing... And besided that here on Finland local Post Office is on strike so let's see when they really come... I'm still waiting my tempered glass (coming from UK, normally would be only 3-5 workdays) and Anker USB A 3.1 - C cables (coming from Germany, normally 3-5 workdays)... I have only heared bad from Dbrand shippings so i only hope that i will get it before christmas.. :)
[Nexus 6P Accessories] XSSIVE.:
Still no sign of my order and no replies to my emails from yesterday or today after they told me to wait 'til the 23rd to get my order that was placed on the 27th and "shipped" on the 3rd. Looks like I'll have to file a paypal dispute.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Pilz:
I feel the same way, I really like my Nexus 6 but I wanted a backup phone so I tried a few and my wife did too. The Nexus will always be my DD and I can't see myself leaving the 6P for anything but a new Nexus in 2016

For the two of you guys that used the large metal plate in the back, does it interfere with any of your wireless signals? BT, NFC, cellular, WiFi etc? Anything notable?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] zige:
They have put it on middle of phone, there is only metal (aluminum) on there. Antennas you mentioned are placed on top of phone (that black camera piece) and bottom of phone (you can notice that there is different material on little spot) so it shouldn't affect on any of those.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] darkamikaze:
Yep. Pretty much what was said. If there was Wireless Qi, it would have been blocked for sure. Since I didn't have to worry about that I didn't have any reason to not put it behind the skin.:good:

http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00QXYUTOE?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

no, not the same. I don't like your model because I don't like looking down when I'm driving, I prefer to have my phone to the left of my steering on the dashboard.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] mlrtime3:
Can anyone recommend a skin to give some texture to the back? Coming from a One Plus I find the back to be too smooth and slippery. I miss the One Plus texture.

Thanks

[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Well, the Diavel isn't in my garage at the moment. Uhhh... I left it at the dealership for a while. Hopefully I'll be able to pick it up this coming spring. :p LOL
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Lepa79:
It's conformed. The frame skins are useless really. I tried 2 and ended up pulling them off. Makes the phone very hard on the hands and getting it in and outside of the spigen rugged case is a disaster. Save your money and don't buy skins for the sides.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] vomer:
Very nice :good:

I would have suggested alternating diagonal pattern as an alternative
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Yeah, I was thinking that too. I had cut several pieces of paper to use as pre-template placeholders, and it looked like the cuts would have been difficult. Now that I've done this, and have a better idea on how to precisely cut it, I'm thinking of getting another MKBHD pack and trying again. I'll say this, using a straight edge and an exacto knife can still give some imperfect lines. Not as easy as you would think. The Dbrand skins are so precisely cut, it leaves precious little room for error.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Pilz:
I agree side skins were never intended to be used with a case. The rest of the skins are fine (I personally hate front skins but that's just me)
