i think these are similar. and they come in pink.

not sure if they're any good or not, though.

I actually ordered that one 2 days ago! I just hope it looks as good as it does on that website. lol

Thanks!

Not a fan of cases at all but thinking about picking one of these up, especially the cyan one.

Do these stick tight to the device? Worried about dust getting in there and eventually causing scratches. A friend of mine had a bad experience with the Air Jacket so I'm a little worried.

They sick to it pretty well, but I wouldn't recommend going more then a few days without taking it off and wiping the phone and case down. I haven't had any specific issues, but I just don't think any case is impervious to dust and debris working its way in.

I personally take the case off every day when I get home. I'm like you in that I'd prefer to not have to use a case at all.

I've been running the black one for a week now and love it. It snugs with the iPhone pretty well but also take it off to clean everything.

Thanks for clearing that up. Placed an order.

Not to cross the advertising line, but I have cases in my store made out of a material identical to the iSkin solo and in some fun colors (like Pink, etc). The Hex case on my site is especially popular.

Check 'em out if you like the iSkin and want some different colors or textures. There are pics of each on a black and white iPhone, as well.

I have the Full Body BestSkinsEver and I just got my Vive Solo FX. Theres one part depending where I start to put the case on it still shows the chrome. It also pushed against the back piece now it is messed up and now the adhesive side is smeared. Should I take off the back to make it fit all the way?

EDIT: Just double-checked, it wasn't the iSkin Solo FX that I had purchased, it was this one:

First post here, and it's going to be my review on this. XD

I bought one today (iSkin Duet set, so it came with the clear one), quickly brought it home and tried it on.

First things first, it did not match up. Not in the least bit. The top right and bottom left (diagonal) had much more "flap protection" than their counterparts. The silver bevel was partially exposed in the top left corner, and the buttons didn't match up at all. I did manage to get all the buttons lined up, the holes lined up, etc... but when it was lined up, it looked like this:

So yeah, it seems to have not been cut out correctly at all. The "inserted" fit wasn't nearly correct, it took major "massaging" to get the buttons lined up, and yet the bevel in the bottom right was exposed.

Needless to say I brought it back, even tried on another one and it still did the same. I really wanted that case, it was clear and they're hard to get in stores.

In the end, if you're not picky about your skin (unlike me), this skin is great. But it's more-than-likely not going to line up properly (in my experience), and something that protects a $700 investment definitely should.
