Cheaper, but good alternatives for dbrand skins?

[YourNewPalAlex]

Good, cheap alternatives for dbrand skins? 12$ for a skin is quite alot you know.

Depends on the phone you have and the quality you want from it.

Ebay is as good a place to start at, if you search for something like "*phone model* vinyl", for cheap phone skins, you get what you pay for. Dbrand use actual quality material, the cheap skins you'll find online from China are likely to be super thin, barely sticks, hard to apply and what not. Talking from actual experience with those....

Etsy, decalgirl, ebay?

 

Dbrands skins are super nice though. It's not just a shitty sticker, they're fairly thick material and have durability

Couldnt say specifically.

 

I've used tempered glass ones on my phones off amazon since like 2012 and have never had a screen crack. Not sure what's available for the pocophone but might as well take a look

I just buy a roll of vinyl from amazon and have plenty of extra for the same price as one dbrand skin, so I replace it every few months.

Just cut it yourself, end up being 100x cheaper than dbrand.

$12 just for skin actually sounds pretty cheap. Considering good leather case is about same price.

And grip and protection. Plus at that price I'd imagine it being more durable than leather.

I was a skeptic of DBrand myself. But, I can say after buying a Note 8 skin I dont think I'll go back to a case. I'm careful with my phones, but with a screen protector I cant envision myself breaking the device from a drop. It feels like quality, and is easy as hell to put on. Also legit 3M adhesive is just confidence inspiring.

 

Obviously a case offers more protection, but I digress.

nah man a skin wont protect your phone from falls lets be honest, scrathing sure, but dbrand doesnt have full cover skins, at least for the poco, it only has back skins and it doesnt protecc the sides. A case protects all of the back and the sides, with drop protection.
