MyTego Skin: Review & Pics

**Malatesta** · #1 (**permalink**) 08-10-2006, 03:10 PM

So about a month ago I ordered some MyTego Skins for my 6700.

They ended up getting lost in the mail but finally they showed up (29 days later). I'm supposed to get a replacement from MyTego, lets see if they come in.

Anways, so I thew them on and took some pics.

My review:

The Front Tego Skin: A

It goes on easy and looks really sweet (xv6700 anyone? lol).

TIP: Once it's on, go over ALL the external edges with some clear nail polish. These are fancy stickers afterall. This will make your edges flush with the device AND prevent them from peeling up! I put on a couple of coats and you can't even tell it's on there.

The Back Tego Skin: C

I don't have this on my device. I took it over in a day or so. It just didn't fit as well as the front skin, especially over the curvy parts near the speaker.

The Battery Cover Tego Skin: A

Okay, on my battery cover you'll see The Leveller's "rolling anarchy" logo. You can put any design into the skins you want by uploading the pic when your "designing" your skin. I chose this and it came out just great!

It also fits on very well.

the Keyboard Skin: D

Also not displayed as I took it off. Basically it goes on the keyboard. Cool concept but on a moving keyboard? Won't last long.

The good news is that you can pick and choose what parts of the skin you want. You could just buy the "Front" skin if you wanted.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Overall I'm happy with it. My device (Sprint 6700) looks freakin' bitchin' now (especially with those Black eGrips on it) and if you do the nail polish trick, they'll be sure to last a long-time.

And now the pics...!

For a second I thought I was looking at the VX6700. Nicely done.

thanks for all the compliments...

I should add (though I'm sure you all know) that you can do any color and style you want with MyTego, not just black or plain.

Personally, I really liked the black on the xv6700, hence my choice. I could have also gone with a more "matte" black too.

It's neat stuff--a fun way to change it up a bit.

Very nice one roblem tho they should of covered all of the back too. instead they coverd just the battery back piece.

yea I have been thinking of ordering a set. Yea s2000 it should have covered the whole back up. So malatesta did u also get the keyboard skin, cuz u can cover the edges of it also. Oh snap this will cover my scratchs! Gotta order some! See if I can't plaster mine with PPCGeeks

not true.

in my review I mentioned how they have an entire back piece that covers 100% of the back. I took it off because I didn't like how it fit around the curvy parts.

go the website and design a skin for the 6700 and you'll see what I mean.
