Reviews and pictures of Best skins ever (BSE) skins

post #1 of 17
Thread Starter 
Well i've just wanted to share my experiences with BSE (http://www.bestskinsever.com/)
I've stuck their product on a zune, ipod and this ds lite

Now, here's a BSE 6 months after its application on my ds lite





6 months later, still looks the same! Unfortunately my ipod and zune has been sold off.. so no pictures of those
I only have a tiny complaint.. dirt or dust collects on the end of the skin, no big problem though, i can just easily wipe it off
In the light, it looks like it has this slightly odd texture

But.. it makes fingerprints a lot less noticable and it's VERY hard to put a scratch on the skin. The odd texture actually gives it a nice grippy feel
AND with the DS, there's one extra advantage, the screen protectors that are included makes the touch screen more accurate (not as slippery)

Next.. BSE for my clix2 and PSP
I hope they come out with the new ipod's skin not too long after it comes out!

Update:
Well.. guess what the first thing i did was after i ordered a clix2

Here are some pics for you to feast on:






Worked great as always, easy to apply.. the only thing is that the sides aren't covered.. but who looks at the sides anyway

IMO, the clix looks even better with the BSE on. Why? Because the back is now shiny

So yeah.. nothing unexpected here, the screen looks just as good after it's applied. Great product as always

Installation is easy.. a spray of windex the smack em on

I hope they can make 6g ipod skins not too long after it comes out!

PS. excuse the green-ish tint.. my wall's colour is reflected. Also about the amount of dust.. you gotta remember the clix 2 is tiny.. and dust appears bigger/ more noticable in a blown up picture like this

Indeed they're awesome. Only complaint I had was my Zen where the back is white, it tended to get a lot of dirt trapped under the edge of the skin that I couldn't clean out. I got so bothered by it I eventually took the skins off the back and sides, which is fine too. The front is what matters anyway.

I had its full protective skin armor thingy on my moto Q cellphone.
Quite nice i have to say. My wife need a skin for her upstage, but they still don't have it for her.

So, this is my moto Q with skin applied.



I went to the office depot the other day, and found the store manager has the same cellphone, the moto Q. I told him he has quite nice phone, and he said thank you, then I said... I have the same thing, the difference is... Then he was like OMG where did you get it. I need that one. I told him about BSE, and he took 20% off of my purchase. Quite nice... isn't it? I saved more than what I paid for my BSE skin. I am very satisfied customer, hehe.

As NightWoundsTime stated, it gets some dirts at the edge. That obviously is true, but we always can take the dirt off within a few seconds. And BSE usually is way cheaper than competitors, so what more we can ask for?

I have used BSE for my old PSP and my Nano. They work perfectly.

My 5G video ipod is still going strong with that stuff on it - screen looks pristine as does the wheel, even with heavy usage. and it's on my RAZR too - can't tell you how many times it's been mauled with my keys in my bag with nary a scratch! totally worth the few bucks and a minute with Windex!


and yes, for all who feared using Windex - obviously, no problems in a long term test.

Eh.. actually

I used windex on my white 5g ipod and over time the click wheel appeared to be turning pink (didn't put any skin on the wheel)

Halfway taking off the skin, it was obvious that the skin turned yellow.. Most likely because i used some windex-like window cleaner. I tried again with baby shampoo and it stayed the same clear white for a good 4-5 months or so

huuuuuh? yeah, use the real thing, none of that no-frills ammonia cleaner!

I buy the 1/3 A4 sheets and put the stuff on everything I own that I don't want scratched. I use a little washing up liquid in water and do the whole thing after a shower with the fan off so no dust gets under there. Love it.

How do these feel? to touch? I cant stand silicon skins, they creep me out, do they feel a lot like the original DS?

You persuaded me to buy one!

Sweet, I've never used skins/cases for anything, but I might have to try one of those for my next player.

lol@ camera in pic 3

My DS Lite's screen is somehow way more scratched than my iPod, which is twice as old and is carried around WAY more than my DS

I have on my my 80GB Video too. Absolutely brilliant, and still lasts after so long.

I just used water with a tiny drop of soap. Works perfectly.
