OnePlus 3t Midnight black edition Question

Hello XDA! I would like this Question since I bought a brand new Black OP 3T.
Is there any chance that the phone's matte black color will result in discoloration after some time of use? ( I know only time will tell but I just wanna be sure).
I would like to go around with my phone nude without any cases just to show its beauty. Most people will say get a Rhino shield case but I am not into that.
Also, using a d-brand and then removing it would peel off the color?
Thanks.

I think the color wouldn't discolor after a time this is not a cheap product to be like that
I recommend to buy a case if you want to show the beauty but a transparent case to protect it
Because if the phone fall from you it can be scratched
And about the dbrand skin from my informations removing it will not peel the color

I have a Dbrand skin on my OnePlus 3T and its super fly! Black leather back with red top and bottom/speaker I didn't get leave the front though

Doesn't the midnight black come with a smoked transparent TPU case?

It does come with the case. It should not discolor. It looks incredible.

Better protect it with decent protection such as RhinoShield. For me, it always better to be safe than sorry.

Yeap, it comes with the case indeed but I am just scared because an apple product, I don't remember which one tho, that had the same color had that issue of getting discolored after some time. Also, theres must be a special reason for them sending that case.

Do you have the black one tho dude? And if you do please tell me if it removes the color after peeling it off (if you have ever peeled it off)

I bought two cases, an otterbox and a official sandstone black case. Getting a Spigen neo hybrid will probably show off the beauty of the shop. I also want to say that I know oneplus are doing their best in order to make their devices out of premium materials. I am just curious because an apple matte black iPhone got discolored after some time of use. That's why I want to be sure about my purchase.

Yeah, you are right but I am not clumsy and i never accidentally broke a screen or left any minimal mark on my devices. If I am going to buy the Rhino shield what color of a d-brand should I get? Because the phone looks black its self.

Dbrand Galaxy Note 8

pre ordered my skins a while back, went for red & black carbon fiber, curious about the white marble & dragon skin tho, cant wait for them to release the green carbon fiber skins
here is a link if you're interested:
https://dbrand.com/shop/samsung-galaxy-note-8-skins
on a glass phone its pretty much a no brainer, adds grip, protects from scratches, hide smudge marks, helps you locate the fingerprint scanner - whats not to like?
has anyone else pre ordered? what did you get?

Probably ordering a few... I have a dbrand dark wood skin for my S8+ and love it. I might try it the lighter wood for my Note 8

Thanks for the link...definitely going to try the metal..

Hyperblack Titanium all the way around, on a Orchid Grey. Very elegant executive look.

If you've applied screen protectors before then it's way easier as you don't need to look out for dust fibers, just small grains that may cause lumps, plus you can take it off and stick it back on again as long as you're careful
They provide video tutorials for each device they sell skins for.
They do front skins too but I'm not a huge fan of them

These skins by dbrand are the best! They are very thick and protect well. I just took the one off my note 5 which I bought as soon as it came out, and it is brand new looking now. The skin also came off slowly but cleanly, with no need to clean after removing. Also look for xda packs they offer at special prices.

Whatever you do, Dbrand is fine. Just don't order anything from Slickwraps....worst service I ever experienced.

I've had a dbrand skin on ALL of my past phones during at least one point or another and always go back to them. Will be ordering the Black Dragon skin because I have never tried this one yet(but looks cool) and the Hyperblack Titanium just in case I don't like the Dragon skin.

I had the Dragon Skin for Samsung s8+, looks nice, but like other posters say it's pretty easy to put on. A quick YouTube and you'll have a bunch of videos to help you.

Got the Black Dragon skin with a Red Carbon Fiber accent.
Excited to see it in-person!

Are DBRAND skins waterproof ?

How is it putting on case and removing case with a dbrand skin? Does it thicken the phone in anyway. Does makes it hard to remove or put on case?

ive not had any issues with water - its made out of 3m vinyl so it should hold up

depends on the case, i use the ringke fusion and generic tpu cases and theyre flawless, i dont think the ultra thin snap-on cases would play well with the skin but the skin is very thin

So if they don't have problems with water, can I still clean the phone without any issue ? Because I usually use cotton and alcohol

Pretty sick skin from XTREMESKINS UK. They do global shipping too. Mine is with the matt anthracite skin.

I got the matte Morpheus with red accent.
Was expecting a little texture to be honest

I wanted to get that one but I changed my mind last min. Yeah, it looked like it had a sandy texture to it just from the visual alone but it didn't, sadly. It still looks good though.

Might check out the dbrand red dragon next although I think I will end up buying the black one. I had the black one on my S8 and it was awesome

How about grip with this skin? Applied a sandstone Skinnova skin but that one hardly added any grip.

It definitely has a better grip than being nude with the metal but there's no texture for mine, at least. If you get the wood, carbon and etc series, it'll be textured.

Yeah i brought a skin from Wrapcart for Rs.250 can't wait to receive it

ordered a full back sandstone black and flat back carbon fibre with red accents from gadgetshieldz
gadgetshieldz has a 20% off for op7t skins

If you reside in the UK or anywhere in the world for that matter, you can always pick up some premium quality skins for your OnePlus 7T from us too

Just today got my orange skin from them. Looks really good actually, I was really wanting an orange Pixel 4 and that phone ended up kind of sucking, so this is just as good.

I also received my skin from them. The precision is absolutely ****. I had ordered dbrand and gadget shieldz before for my op5 and they are waaayyyyy better than WrapCart.
The skin's 'details' or pattern's 'resolution' is also crappy.
1/5 , absolute crap cart.
Also i commented on their Instagram post and they removed my comment and blocked the account.
Never buy anything from them.

Yeah, the quality is good.

Yep, I'm using the red carbon fiber skin by dbrand on my 7T with the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle case and my manager is using the yellow carbon fiber skin by dbrand on his Pixel 4 XL now with the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle case too.
I have a Slickwraps skin on my 7 Pro too but they're not as quality as dbrand and they're more expensive if you don't get it on their 50%-75% off sales.

I absolutely agree with you but the print is of no clarity but for 250 the skin thickness is good enough and i agree that dbrand is the best (As flour as Roti)

I just got mine. So the red covers the whole phone, and the black installs over the top of it? It seems like the black could be vulnerable to lifting.

Nimbus9 Phantom 2 case vs Speck Presidio Grip case

I fortunately managed to get ahold of both these cases and while color options are limited, I'm impressed with both. There are no pics of the Nimbus9 Phantom 2 case for the V60 but I've a few of their cases so guessing helped. The Nimbus9 case comes with red colored buttons that snap if you want to change the color. The Speck case I purchased straight off the T-Mobile website.

I like the Speck but I was hoping they'd come out with different colors. That Nimbus looks like something I should check out though. Thanks for the pictures. Is it available on Amazon?

They only have that color but I have the white V60 so it looks smart. Hopefully, more will come out.

Both those cases were seriously overpriced... I went with a Caseology from eBay I pay 10.99 for it ...it since gone up to 13.99 but still a great case for the money

I went the opposite. I ordered the Speck. The Nimbus looks awesome, but I already had a clear case. My Speck hasn't arrived yet, but I'll admit I AM worried about whether or not I'm going to be able to tolerate that color ?
