Who's using or planning on using a skin on your device?

Let's see them!

Also what's your favorite skin/company to use?

I have a clear case, and I picked up the Jade Green, but im considering also grabbing a skin. I used to use SopiGuard skins, but ever since they got rid of the green color I liked, it's been hard to find another skin I want.

Glass is already an insulator. Putting a skin on further traps heat and if you put a case on, as you should, you just created a sauna.

Naturally I had that thought after buying a skin..

Flossy had this case on his case review. I went ahead and bought one and it's minimalistic. It's not a 20 foot drop test case but it's minimal bulk, and if we are talking about skins drop test isn't a thing anyway. I've used skins also and this is the closest I've seen a case get like a skin.

I got this cool skin from Qskinz for my Pixel 9 Pro XL and I love it so much but they don't have any for the 25U yet. Once they do, I think I'm going to put a spin on it with a clear case.

That looks nice but I can't imagine it not getting pilly over time. I know at $50 your paying for the quality tight woven fibers but that's pricey even for what it is

Well I'm going to find out, lol. Most of us on here only need it to last a year anyway then it's on to the next new gadget.

Flossy has them on a lot of his older phones, they look good, but of course he probably isn't using them all every day. I liked the look, I wanted something that gave me full use of the screen, hence why I was going to go skin, but this is a case that gives you the same thing. Time will tell on how it holds up to daily use. I'll give it a try, if I get another one for a for phone depends on how this holds up.

This is just a option for those that want the true feel of the phone, this is a case that will give you the same thing as a skin. Skins also start to peel on the corners which gives me OCD issues, .
 
Last time I tried it was back with Nexus 6P (top 5 phones of all-time).

Not feeling them. Besides I use my phones at home naked...feels good in hands.

Excellent choice I have one on my P9PXL and I've not taken it off. It wipes down easily for the fingerprints or sometimes I just take it off rinse it under warm water

Skins do indeed peel which is why I always use a case personally even if one of those cheap clear, in 2 months it will be yellow, TPU cases.

But let me know what you think once you get it. I'm curious if it will feel slippery in hand too. Thr colors do look phenomenal bland in writing that, I now wonder how long they will stay vibrant between natural body oils aslnd hopefully the ink not simply separating.
 
I just remembered that the cameras are raised and bigger rings around them. I wonder how this affects a skin or at least applying a skin to the S25U, now that the cameras are not flush.

I use Dbrand skins. I'm the past I got the main skin that has a opening to go around the cameras and then there was a smaller one to go around the camera circles. The camera one was a pain to install to apply pressure to the skin between the circles.

Edit..I just looked and it appears Dbrand changed to one piece now. Below is a video how they install.
