I haven't seen any threads about DBrand skins so I figured I'd create one.
I've purchased skins from them for my nexus 4 and htc one and the product and service is top notch.
They posted a pic of the leather skin for the Z2 on their Facebook page so I wanted to share it. Also want to know if anyone else is going to order from them.
Personally I don't want a case because it would make the phone really hard to use with one hand and I think that the back skin will be enough to at least protect the glass back. What do you guys think?

question on the carbon skin, does it actually have a carbon fiber esk texture? Thanks.
Orderd the orange back and side skins. I think it's going to look amazing.
I currently have a carbon textured skin but I've ordered the titanium one cause I think it'll look pretty awesome in combination with the side aluminium on the frame. Can't wait!
Edit: Also if possible it would be really awesome to see skins for the sony tablet line, I've got the Tablet Z and would love to slap on one of your skins.
does the skin covers the whole frame like the corners and such? that is the most impact part of the phone when drops. The corners always hit first.
I have a screen protector on both the front and the back of my phone, would I have to remove them in order to apply the skin?

I'm pretty sure you can keep them there but I'd personally remove them because most likely they won't align perfectly on the corners and it might be visible.
Received my ordered skin today and damn, what a perfect fit. This is what it looks like..

No, just the back one. Don't want to cover the sides as it's metal and plastic anyway.

Hey guys!
We took a few dozen really great photos of the Z2 in various color combinations yesterday. I'll post them here once all they're ready (dust removed, etc).
Also, if you're new to dbrand Xperia Z2 skins, make sure to check out the how to apply tutorial video we made specifically for the Xperia line of phones. Link in the picture below!

Every order for a front piece includes two anti-glare screen protectors that fit perfectly within the front skin's screen cutout. We'd definitely recommend that you remove the screen protector which is already applied in favor of the screen protectors that are supplied.

Indeed it does! The carbon fiber material we use is the most textured stuff on the market. Each "weave" has nine tiny little ridges on it to mimic the look and feel of real dry carbon fiber. It bounces the light accordingly and provides pretty decent grip.

So I decided to get a little creative after putting on the white carbon phantomskinz. Painted the red camera ring black as you can see. Let me know what you all think of the look.
If interested in purchasing the same skin you can do so at www.Phantomskinz.com and look for the Chromatics product line.
Pretty slick looking
That does look awesome! I just bought one and they have a sale "winter2011" 30% off, free shipping, and I believe it's 2 for 1. Total order cost was $20!
Until january 31, 2012.
Just a very very expensive sticker.

That looks cool,I don't really like cases on my phones just might be what i'm looking for is it a pain to put on?
.
Not at all, installation of the chromatic is very simple. As the instructions say, just align the chromatic with the cutouts for logo and ports and then its a straight shot. You will need a blow dryer running (hot) to lay down the corners but once you heat up the chromatic a bit the corners are easy. Hope it helps you out.
Thanks for the reply
I watched the install video from the link you put up,but you never know I wanted to hear from someone that had use this themself.
Thanks I think I'm going to get a few...
Not a bad idea. I was thinking of the black carbon fiber to see how that one looks. It also looks pretty clean in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2XDwxcnSZk That of course is a video of Ghost Armor which is a similar product.
If anyone is interested in a white carbon fiber skin like the one in the video above (Ghost Armor). I Have one for sale.
pm me a price you want for it.
That look ****ing sweet!!!!!!!!

They are, but it's way too expensive for a case
I just bought these and will post picks when I get both my z3 and the cases
http://www.mobilefun.com/48903-6-in-1-silicone-sony-xperia-z3-case-pack.htm
When will there start being more case selections... I feel like the selection is poor right now..
Anyone who is using a clear hard case? For example casemate?
I've done a short review of the Smart window style cover in this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=56541197
Wasn't going to use a case with the phone, but I've almost dropped it at least 5 times in the last few days. I ordered the Ringke Fusion case smoke black. I had one for my Z1 Compact and it worked amazingly well, dropped it from about 5 feet onto hard concrete multiple times without any issues, feels extremely solid. It has a hard plastic back and soft, rubbery silicone edges.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sony-Xperia...on-Bumper-Hybrid-Case-Free-Film-/271621472822
Anyone seen one? Want something relatively thin just to protect the edges. All the cases you seem to find are folio style or OTT protection.
There isn't much available for this tablet. Unfortunately, It's mostly cheap folio cases. The only others I've seen were the Poetic cases.
Yeah pretty slim pickings Even looked at 3D printing a case.
Ive been looking for one forever and haven't found any. I thought sit getting a custom made 3D printed bumper but it wasn't worth the cost. If you find anything let us know!

Really after something thin just to protect the edges to be honest. Apple bumper style.

Yes, yes, we are waiting for news! As soon will be available to buy 2 pieces!
If anyone decides to do this, I'd be in for 4!
I'll take one if they're good! I would love for there to be more options like hybrid phone cases. I have a poetic and hate it. I cut the rubber off the button area because the power button just wasn't registering when I pushed it. And the usb port cover kept popping out so I cut that off too lol.. And the screen protector is so wavy and distracting that I took that out. I've got a tempered glass protector, which is so much better. I tried a cheap flip case but when it's folded behind its so annoying. Why don't they make them with magnets to hold them in place?

Are any more textured and grippy than others? I want as much grip as possible. It looks like Morpheus and leather might be, but I can't tell from the pictures.

If you're looking for our skins to add a little extra grip, we can recommend the following:-
Black Leather
Carved Charcoal
Sahara Concrete
Aged Oak
Silverblack Wood
Black Carbon
Black Camo
Brushed Metals
Hope this helps. It may be worth checking out our insta too
Clear Matte; Back and Camera Protector Skins
I ordered from XtremeSkins.
someone FINALLY released proper Mate 20 X skins. I wish they had these ready to go at the launch of the phone.
I ordered the Clear Matte; Back and Camera Protector from them.
Took about 2 weeks from their place in UK to Canada.
Attached some pics, the fitment/clearance of the cuts are much better than anything on Aliexpress and Ebay. Trust me, I've been using those crappy ones until I got these.
The worst/ most inaccurate cut out for the Skins that came to me is the Fingerprint cut out. but its not that bad.
Hope this helps.

I bought a skin from Xtreme skins and it was only for the back. The video they show is quite misleading as it shows protection for the sides too. Was very disappointed. Basically a screen protector for the back!

Hi, it's a shame you feel this way because at no point in our installation video or product page, do we mislead you as the customer. It's clearly evident that we don't cover the sides on this device. We only ever cover the glass portion.

Sorry-I just sold the phone and the skins with it. However, they are just the rear panel cutouts nothing too intricate. (It is not a solid sheet) Compared to dBrand these feel a little thinner (material) which seems easier to conform to any non-flat parts of the phone. Once you use a little heat from a hairdryer the decals adhere perfectly with no lifting from the corners. I also used these on my Mi Mix 3 as well.

Hi there,
I thought I would say that I've owned my mi mix 3 China version since launch date (Nov 18) and made my own custom skin for the back of it.
Since the back is made from ceramic, (don't believe me, check out JerryRigEverything on YouTube) I placed a bit of vinyl wrap on the back of my phone, used a hairdryer to go around the camera and a scalpel to tidy up the sides.
To cut the camera hole perfectly, I placed the case that came with the phone onto it and followed the cutout.
Same goes for the fingerprint reader.
