Just a question, which skin has the most grip?
And will there be a screen protector available as well as a camera lens protector.
And how do I apply the screen protector of I have the front peace of the dbrand skin on?
Thanks.

1. The carbon fiber and matte materials offer the most grip of anything available in our portfolio. The carbon fiber offers grip through tiny ridges on each "weave", while the matte offers grip through the frictional matte coating on the surface of the skin.
2. Camera lens protectors are available via the "Accents" skin that you see on our LG G3 shop page. Screen protectors will be available soon, but they're currently not for sale.
3. The front skin covers only the metallic bottom of the front, where the LG logo is. The screen protector covers the entire glass screen surface. They don't overlap, but they do come in contact right at the edge to create a full, seamless front coverage.

Me too! Anyone else notice the third option was "frame" rather than "accents"? Does this mean there is a skin for the frame of the phone as well?

lol someone must have messed that up. It should have read "Front" "Back" "Accents". Expect a follow-up ASAP!

Edit: It looks like everyone already responded to the email. Many of you fixed the "Frame" and typed "Accents" instead. Great job. I figured it wasn't worth clogging your inbox with a follow-up, as all the people who received the email are also here. Just to clarify, the part you filled in for "Frame" will be the "Accents" instead. "Front" and "Back" were prompted and filled out correctly by everyone.

Looking forward to hearing everyone's thoughts on the skins! We've been in touch with LG Canada, sent them a few samples, and they're really impressed with the final result. Not sure what's going to come of it, but it's good to see an OEM taking interest and supporting medium sized accessory manufacturers outside of the Otterboxes and Spigens.

When do you guys officially release it?

Because it says (pre-order) on your website!!!
All G3 orders are shipping normally now. All the pre-orders have been shipped, as well as the 21 skins that were given away in this thread. We're shooting the application tutorial video today, as well as another video showing off the skins, plus a ton of photos in some nice front/back/accent combos. Below is a quick preview of the titanium and black titanium skins.

I have emailed a couple times about order, and haven't received a response. Haven't gotten any emails after order, and was just interested in status? Thanks man, sorry to bother you on here... ;)

No worries, that's what I'm here for! I checked into it and it does appear we have a few pending emails from you. Sorry about that. We've been deep in shooting G3 photos/videos and shipping out the orders. We're getting through all the pending emails over the next 24 hours. Expect a response regardless, but I can assure you it was shipped out on the morning of the 1st and should be arriving with you soon. If you didn't get a shipping confirmation, let me know and I can re-send it.

I'll post up a few more high-res pictures once they're ready. If anyone has a style of material they'd like to see, just let me know and I can ask them to prioritize it.

I've purchased skins for my past 3 phones, and I'm thinking about getting the titanium after seeing the picture you guys posted. I've been on the fence about the matte finish, if you could post pictures that are as awesome as the titanium ones i might have to pick up an extra set.

I thought you're a robot, and robots don't have gender assignment? ;)

Anyway, I've bought a few dbrand skins in the past, but I've yet to see photos of the matte colour vinyls. I'm familiar with the white, black carbon, and wood.

Below is a photo of the matte black with yellow accents and a matte white front. Post up if you want to see another style of material. I'll be making a longpost as soon as the how to apply tutorial video is done, explaining why the coverage we offer is what it is, plus some pro-tips for installation. It's safe to say that our coverage is by far the best on the market, plus we eliminated the "sharp edge" issue that plagues the vinyl skin industry. Tutorial video should be our best one to date, the motion graphics bots are going really hard on it.

Wow, if you really managed to remove the sharp edges, this is going to be sooo awesome <3!
Even more looking forward to trying them out!

Matte black with yellow accents looks so awesome! Wow! I'm curious, should one wish to change the skin, is there an easy way to peel the existing one off and replace it with another? You do ship to South Africa, right?

Would you be able to post an image of the true color skins? I have one on order, but have yet to see it ship. Curious on what the grip is going to look like on those. Also do you think you'd be able to make a quick sand type of material for grip? I had a case like this and I think it would help a ton on the grip of the phone!

Thanks!
Anthony

Sure thing! Which color did you want to see? The texture of the true color is like a powder-coated finish with a very light grain on it. The carbon and matte materials probably have better grip, but it's all relatively similar. We only use authentic 3M vinyl across our entire portfolio, so the difference in grip lies mainly within the texture. The only one that has a big extra grip is the matte finishes, as they have a frictional matte coating on the surface.

Let me know which true color material you want to see a shot of and I'll post it up right away.

Indeed we did! Looking forward to hearing your review of the skins.

Great question. All you have to do is peel it at one corner, pull it off with all your might, and toss it. There's guaranteed to be no adhesive residue of markings left on your device upon removal. We most certainly ship to South Africa. Let me know if you have any further questions!

Here you go, buddy. True color orange back with matte white accents and a black leather front. If you find that the true color series doesn't have the kind of grip you're looking for, just let me know once you receive your order and I can look into getting you a pre-release sample of the orange carbon fiber. It's got some nice grip to it and it's a very sexy, vibrant shade of orange.
