    Ordered the Ukarbon white leather full body skin
    BlackBerry Priv Skin | UK Made | Premium Quality ? U|Karbon

    I hope it's durable...

    and this white version of the wraparound glass protector:
    Full Cover Edge TO Edge Blackberry Priv Curved Tempered Glass Screen Protector | eBay

    I hope the glass protector cutouts fit the lights and sensors (read mixed results here).

    Now to wait for them to come in and see how it looks overall.


    Still loving my Passport SE, haven't been able to bring myself to switch to the Priv as a daily driver, just using it on WiFi up to now...

    Will do.
    The one spot that I know I won't be able to make white is the speaker grille I guess.

    The leather skin is nice. I tried to do something with a gold one. The skin was fine, but the screen protector was a pile of garbage. I tossed it and got a regular one. Much better.

    Also, for some reason they shipped with extra top and bottom black carbon fiber pieces and black carbon fiber BlackBerry logo pieces.

    If I had to be picky, the black joints between the pieces are pretty noticeable.
    I know they can't be avoided on the top and bottom but on the sides it seems like they could have been avoided if the back skin was oversized to wrap around the sides.

    You mean the tempered glass protector like the one I ordered? That would suck. I'm waiting for it to arrive all the way from China and confirmed with the seller twice that it will fit 100%

    Ive got their full skin on my SE PP and the only issue is putting it in a case on the sides and corners where the case grips the most.

    The skin makes my PP so slippery but very good quality and durable, mine is the black carbon fiber

    I'm hoping to get away with just a holster with this skin and hopefully the sides hold up to the repeated in and out

    Yeah it's a little circle that comes with it.
    Breaks up the big dark camera circle nicely.

    I made a crap video putting on a slick wrap white carbon. The wrap isn't the best but I like the look under the clear case. Kinda wish I turned my phone off before I started, using a heat gun on the wrap with it on may not be a good idea.. :/

    Still waiting for the white screen protector.
    The white leather skin is holding up well though.

    So the white screen protector came in.
    I applied it as best as I could but have a bubble in the top left corner (wouldn't be noticeable if it was the black model).

    Like others noted in other threads (which I didn't know before I ordered), only the perimeter is sticky, not the transparent part.


    Overall it fits Ok other than the bubble, moire effect isn't as bad as I feared from others comments, screen sensitivity is good even on the edge letters near the curve, my edge apps are swiping fine. Proximity sensor for phone calls is working Ok. Might be less sensitive but screen is still turning on and off ok.

    It's not quite a white Priv, but it'll do for now. I have a white carbon fibre skin from UKarbon that was done in one piece to wrap around the sides (one of the thin side strips on this leather version kept coming off), but haven't switched to it yet.
