Great website and OG xbox sticker

Great website, great comms after purchase, sticker is pretty awesome as well! Wish it had joined on the edges, small gaps on each side make it not perfect. Also front pattern and top pattern do not line up which would have made it look much better too. Still looks great

Thank you for the review. We're happy to hear that you like the EXO Pioneer Xbox Skin set!

The Skin was designed not to touch the edges on purpose as this ensures the longitivtiy of the Skin. Skins that are cut such that they reach the edges are much harder to apply as there is no margin for error and they may not stay on properly for long - such Skin edges will overhang if not applied with absolute robotic precision, will get caught up with use over time and are more likely to get lifted. This damages the Skin.

There is supposed to be a very tiny gap between each Skin piece and the edge of the surface; the Skin is to be applied such that the "gap" is equal all around the Skin piece (Skin centered on the surface). This gap is hardly visible on a design like EXO Pioneer where it's almost black on black.

We're glad you like the Skin set overall!

Very disappointed

Panels don't entirely cover the unit, there isn't even a bottom panel, and with the pieces on, I can't flip my screen all the way around (Surface laptop). Even the image is lack luster. Garbage product, will be returning

We're sorry to hear that you did not like the Black Woodgrain Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio i5 Skin.

This Skin set covers the top outer lid and area around the keyboard as shown in the product photo. The sides and bottom of the laptop are not covered. It is important not to cover the bottom of this laptop as this is where heat is dissipated during operation. If the bottom area is covered, the laptop will not be able to "breath" as well, resulting in higher operating temperatures that can cause reduced performance and shorten electronics lifespan. We recommend using the Skin for styling and scratch protection - when you need to transport the laptop, put it in a padded sleeve or bag. The bottom of the laptop does not require a Skin as it's usually facing a surface (eg, on a table), it does not come into direct contact with this surface (will not get scratched) because of the rubber feet on the bottom and people rarely see this surface as it's either on the table or packed in a bag.

Though we've not seen this issue ourselves, we had one other customer who had issues with the screen not staying completely flat in tablet mode and we're guessing that this may be due to the tight tolerance the lids of some Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio i5 builds. We do have a statement on our product page https://www.istyles.com/skins/computer/microsoft-surface/microsoft-surface-laptop-studio-i5/black-woodgrain-microsoft-surface-laptop-studio-i5-skin-p-522978.html stating that this can happen. Our Skins are ultra thin because of the premium cast vinyl used but such lids are so tight that adding even a thin layer in between prevents the mechanism from folding flat. Unfortunately, the only solution for such lids is to remove one or both outer lid Skins.

Our printers print at high resolutions but the perceived "quality" of the image very much depends on the artwork itself. In this case, the Black Woodgrain design https://www.istyles.com/designs/black-woodgrain-p-83140.html simulates the look of the wood grain. It looks great and is a very popular design. However, we do understand that if you're examining it up close, the design may not appear as brilliant as some of the others in our collection. Black Woodgrain is supposed to be understated and simulate the look of wood, even if it's not real wood.

We're sorry that this did not work out.

Excellent Service

I had the most excellent service for this company. I was looking for a specific skin for my new iPhone 13Pro, and didn't see that it was yet available. After contacting customer service, I was told one would be available soon, and they would let me know when I could purchase it. Within less than 2 weeks I had a reply, and am very happy with my purchase. Thank you.

I am extremely disappointed in the skin set I purchased. TO start I ordered the dji air 2s kit which comes with three battery skins as well as a extra skin for the battery which should of given me four battery skins but I only got three in total. Second I was very disappointed in the brightness of the colors. I ordered the skins to make it easier to see my drone as it was flown. But these skins are not vivid, they are very flat and ugly. After applying skins to the batteries I tore them off and threw them away

We're sorry to hear that you did not like the Solid State Lime DJI Air 2S Skin at https://www.istyles.com/skins/drone/dji-air-2s/solid-state-lime-dji-air-2s-skin-p-500274.html . This Skin set comes with 3 battery Skins and as you purchased an additional battery Skin, there should indeed be 4 in total in your package. Three of the battery Skins (2 from the set and 1 from the extra) are available in separate Skin sheets and the 4th battery Skin is in the middle of the main drone Skin sheet with the other Skin pieces for the top of the drone; many people miss this!

This Skin set is a printed set with a "solid state lime" print. The lime color will improve the visibility of the drone in flight and is much more effective than the standard grey color of the drone surface. Many customers love it. However, as it's a printed color, there is a limit to how "bright" it can become and it will not be as vibrant as fluorescent materials. We no longer have fluorescent Skins but perhaps, another color such as yellow may be more to your liking: https://www.istyles.com/skins/drone/dji-air-2s/solid-state-yellow-dji-air-2s-skin-p-500284.html

We're sorry that this did not work out. Thank you for stopping by anyway.

Really really fabulous quality!

Really really fabulous quality and service!! I ordered a skin for my new laptop - double checked the dimensions of my model vs the models mentioned on the page as they were last year's but the size didn't change so went ahead with the order. This was for international delivery to the UK, and even with the shipping (that was like half the total price I paid) the price was really good in comparison to lots of options I could find for personalised skins in the UK itself, especially for the quality! The finish is so beautifully high-end looking, and it is very easy to attach and then remove any bubbles out of. Careful instructions are also provided. There's so much choice of design on the website too that I wish I could get a few different ones and switch around. Would 100% recommend.

Overall Happy With the Product

Overall I am happy. The order was delivered very quickly and well packaged. The quality is excellent. One small logo I had included in my design is missing, presumably there was a problem with the graphic, but that isn't a big deal for me.

Looks Great!

The skin was far more detailed than expected. It fit GREAT! Added a level of protection and visibility that will add value to my DJI Mavic Air 2 drone. It now looks like a vintage Porsche 917!

Elated with my purchase

I am extremely happy with the iStyles skins I bought for my iPads. In addition to the great quality of the product, I was very impressed with the quality of customer support, something extremely rare these days. I made a mistake with the size of one of these skins I ordered and the iStyles customer service team was extremely responsive, professional and so efficient to guide me through the return process and advise on sizes, etc. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a high quality and beautiful skin for their device as well as commend the level of service iStyles provide to its clients.

Do Not Buy: Cut is Not Precise

I got a skin for my Dell XPS 15 9560. The skin fits on the top side, but it's not cut precisely around the corners. Also, the circular cutout for the Dell logo is not centered!! I tried centering it, but the skin is just not cut properly. Disappointed considering that this skin costs as much as the skins of another laptop skins company which I had purchased skins from and loved (starts with a "D"). The only pro is that this skin seems to stick well - only time will tell...

We're sorry to hear that you did not like the Carbon Dell XPS 15 9560 Skin. This Skin set does fit a Dell XPS 15 9560 but it sounds like you've applied the lid Skin incorrectly if you found the Dell logo not centered. This lid Skin is supposed to be applied such that the logo is centered first before aligning the edges.

We're guessing that you aligned an edge first and then tried to force the rest of the Skin into place. This is incorrect as you're supposed to centre the logo first (not align the Skin edge).

The lid Skin edges are not supposed to be flush against the edge of the lid as such edges will get caught up easily during use and get damaged. There is a very tiny gap between the Skin edge and the laptop lid edge (as shown in the photos below); this makes the Skin edges less vulnerable and ensures that they stay down.

Try gently peeling the Skin off and reapplying, centering the logo first before aligning the edges. If applied correctly, the Skin will look like this and it does fit perfectly:

I purchased a white marble skin for my gen 1 Amazon Echo. It came a day early and has great quality. It looks like real carved marble and the added gloss makes it look nice and clean. However, the bottom strip of the skin is a little too long, hindering me from giving 5 stars. I had to fold it slightly to fit the light and wires on the echo. Overall, they did a wonderful job on this skin and I would easily buy another for my other devices.

Thank you for the review. We're glad to hear that you like how the White Marble Amazon Echo 1st Gen Skin set transforms the look of your Amazon Echo such that it looks like real carved marble.

We're sorry to hear that you had an issue with the bottom Skin piece. Every Skin piece should fit as they're precision cut and the layout was extensively tested but we're guessing that you might have accidentally stretched this piece when applying it. The Skins are made of high quality cast vinyl that is flexible enough to wrap around many surfaces and is less prone to shrinkage, but the material can stretch if pulled too hard. This piece is rather long and if it was stretched by just a little as it was wrapped around, it may result in the Skin being slightly too long as you've experienced.

The "fix", rather than a fold, is to cut the end of this piece slightly. Skins can be cut using a penknife or scissors. If you gently peel off the edge that's too long and cut it off, it'll look much cleaner.

Please feel free to contact us at support@istyles.com if you have any further queries or need assistance.

Thought these vinyl decals kraken for Xbox series x and controller vinyl really amazing quality and looks awesome . I Felt the controller very fiddly and I made some incisions on the vinyl to help it to sit better . May be I was doing it a little wrong . There was incisions in the handle decals which was useful . But now I’ve put it on the Xbox and controller their brilliant and different . I don’t have to look a a big black monolith any more . Now a piece of art . Could I suggest you give the customer option to download an image after purchase for our Xbox series x/s so we can make it match the skin . As I would have loved that very much . The option to track package was great too

Thank you for the review. We're happy to hear that you like the Kraken Xbox Series X and controller Skin sets.

The premium cast vinyl used for the Skins allows the material to bend easily around a single axle surface but things get a little more complicated with rounded 3D surfaces; it's like trying to gift wrap a ball with paper. The material is however flexible enough to go on slightly rounded surfaces but when it's not possible to do so, we make incisions to help. Extra incisions are not necessary for the front controller Skin as the Skin can be gently massaged into place even though this area is rounded, but we're glad you made it work.

We've sent you a matching wallpaper via email. We hope you like the matching look!

“Skin” does not really adhere to the cover at all. Good price, quick turnaround but quality of the product is not what I expected. Wish I could give it 5 stars but the adhesion to the iPad case just not what it needs to be

We're sorry to hear that the custom iPad Pro 12.9-inch Magic Keyboard Skin was not sticking well to your Magic Keyboard. These Skins will stick and generally outlast the lifespan of the device but it is a little more complicated because of the Magic Keyboard's surface.

Our Skins come with a balanced adhesive that allows for easy application and goo-free removal. It is important that the Skin stays down and it is just as important that the Skin can be subsequently removed without damage to the device. For example, if the Skin was "super glued" to the device, it will stick well no matter the condition of the surface but it will not be removable.

The Skin adhesive does stick properly based on feedback from our other customers, but it is important to clean the device surface properly prior to Skin application. Magic Keyboards in particular have to be cleaned very well prior to Skin application because as it is, the rubbery like material on the cover's surface makes it difficult for anything adhesive to stay on, and this same material also appears to be a magnet for human oil (tends to become more slippery with use); if it's not perfectly clean, the Skin will not be able to stick to to such a surface.

Likewise, environmental factors, such as constant abrasion against the edge of the Skin, which is a similar action to peeling the Skin, will inevitably result in the edge lifting. In addition, incorrect Skin positioning such that an edge overhangs the device edge will make these edges more vulnerable to peeling or damage. It's also possible the Skin adhesive might have been damaged during the Skin application process if you reapplied the Skin (peeling off and sticking again) too many times when positioning a piece.

We can get another custom iPad Pro 12.9-inch Magic Keyboard Skin made for you so that you can give this another go, and you just have to cover the ship cost to get the new package to you. If you would like to go for this replacement, please contact us at https://support.istyles.com/hc/en-us/sections/201764305-Contact-Us and we will set this up for you.

Great good and service

I ordered a skin for my kindle. I was hesitating with completing my basket and they reached out to see if there was anything I needed help with. I messaged back with a small concern and they were very helpful and here we are. Pre sale service is great so I can only assume if I had a problem I could expect the same.
The skin fits perfectly, was so easy to apply and looks great. Can't wish for more.
