Lumia 930 (ICON) Skinomi Full body protector

[Jude Fernando]

Hi everyone!

So after many many purchases of screen protectors that weren't suitable for the 930 I decided to give Skinomi a go. When ordering I had to order the "ICON" version as they're pretty much the same.

But when I started to look around I couldn't find any pictures of a 930 with the Skinomi protector installed. Everything out there either Samsung or Apple, so thought I'd post them here for anyone else who is interested in the finish that it leaves and what it looks like after installation.

So far durability is great, was pretty easy to install. I'm going to have one of these on every phone I own I think

does this screen protector covers the whole screen like in the pic? all screen protectors i found around here leave those curved edges unprotected, no to mention they make the phone look hideous (it looks like it have a smaller screen placed over the screen lol).

I will attest to these, as I have one on my 930 and several other Lumias. This indeed covers even the curved edges well, and the clarity is great.

Good to know. Is it safe and easy to apply? Don't want to damage my phone

Have you ever done a wet apply screen protector, like from Zagg? They take a little time and delicate handling if you want as little dust under the film as possible, but I can't call them hard by any means. They always say to avoid the liquid getting into the microphone or speaker holes, but most of the time any small amount you may get doesn't seem to do damage. Just don't drown it in liquid and you're good.

I used to use decal girl when I had my 920. But I got a clear case with rubberized edges.

Any chance it'll damage the oleophobic coating? Like leave marks if the screen protector is removed

These are essentially just specially engineered decals, so there's no chemical damage to the screen coating from application and removal.

Thank you for your answers! Guess i'll be importing one of those soon then.

I got a skinomi body protector too but it's the faux carbon fiber because just like in street racing stickers add at least 10hp.

All kidding aside it's been pretty nice. I find the actual screen to have more of a rubbery feeling then my last protector but at the same time it's held up a lot better too.

I also look for proper skins for 930/lumia, but as I am from Europe, unfortunately the Skinomi is not sold directly here and shippement from their shop is ridiculous, almost the price of a product, so total 30$.

Does anybody know if there are the same quality skins available in Europe, other brands, etc? Only skins, no cases.

BTW, does "usage with keys and/or gloves" still work after applying the screen skin?

gloves, most likely yes. Keys i don't think so. Don't know if it's the case of this screen protector in particular, but most will scratch easier than the glass itself. I'd keep metal/sharp objects away from it.
