The back looks great but how do the corners look. I've seen these before and the corners look difficult to get right.
You did a nice job applying it. Looks good!
This is my first time applying a skin on my iPhone. Unlike the skin I applied on my old OnePlus One, it takes quite a while to perfectly adhere everything in place especially because of the corners. Loving it so far!

Looks really nice! Since I'm going naked these days (my iPhone, that is) I'm considering a skin. I just need something for the back of the phone for when I set it down. Any suggestions?
Hi, it took me about 30-45 minutes to fully apply everything. The most time consuming parts obviously are the corners which I did peel and stick repeatedly, reason probably being that I didn't use the highest heat level on my hairdyer. Medium heat didn't help much as it won't soften the skin a lot and directly impact the easiness of applying. Which was why in my original post I suggested to let a particular corner to rest/cool down if your attempts failed because I don't think it's a good idea to keep blowing a same corner with the heat. Until I started using highest heat, the skin seems to "obey" a lot more. Once the skin is soften, put your hairdryer aside, use both hands to deal with the skin, i.e. adjusting, pushing the skin and so on. Just try not to blow the heat directly and continuously onto your phone. I can slightly feel the edges as of now, but it was worse when I use medium heat since the skin didn't 100% adhered to the phone surface.How long did it take you to apply it? I bought one a while back and couldn't get the corners right at all. And without a front side piece it always felt the edges of the skin, do you ever notice it?
Hi, thank you. I don't have any experience with BestSkinEver as suggested by robertk328, but I did have experience with GhostArmor (which you will be given a few options such as front only or back only, types of the skins and so on). Both of these brands are more of the transparent type of skin, unlike dBrand which is textured and coloured.Looks really nice!

Thank you for the advice! I'll check GhostArmor and BestSkinEver, although I generally try to avoid anything @robertk328 recommends.

I have also had good luck with a bowl of warm water with a few drops of dish soap. Drag the skin through it and use fingers to squeegee it a bit. Works well!Oh and with GhostArmor/BestSkinEver type of skin, you normally do need to spray some soapy water on it in order to apply properly. GhostArmor did supply me a little spray bottle and of course with installation guide. So, refer to their installation guide video and paper manual.
