Pictures taken with a 6 Plus so they aren't the best. As careful as not laying it down on its back and keeping it in a separate pocket.

swapped my matte black iPhone 7 for a jetblack iPhone 7 at my local Apple Store.
Besides the masterpiece of design, this jetblack iPhone is super grippy, like its almost sticking to your hand.
I have owned every iPhone since the 3GS, but this jetblack iPhone is the most grippiest one out of the box. The iPhone 6 and 6S is like holding a soapblock.
Using it caseless, obvious with this design, and have AppleCare+
I have my new jetblack now for about 2 days: no scratches visible. Yeah, maybe if I put under a bright light and put in front of my eyes I would see miniscule minor scratches, but why should I do that?
I am not the kind of OCD guy. I am enjoying this masterpiece of design to the fulliest without checking evey other day if I have scratches (thats why I have AppleCare+)

I'm trying to order the Onyx and Alienskin together at nanostate.co. I entered the discount code "MacRumours" BUT Alienskin didn't change to FREE, it only discounted .10 (pounds I think). I thought it would remove the price for Alienskin and I'd just pay for the Onyx. Is anyone experiencing this or maybe I'm doing it wrong. Btw, I'm in United States. Thanks in advanced!

COUPONS AND DETAILS
The code for the Onyx and free Alien skin back piece is : Macrumours
It won’t show your getting it as people don’t usually give products away free the cart would be very confused, so it’s discounted by 10 pence so I know what is required, just drop me an email with what you want 7 or 7+
I’m also going to offer a code for the full Alien Skin code is : allienskinMR
It will give you £7 off
(You will see the add coupon at the top of the form where you fill the address details out)

Thanks for the prompt response nanostate!
To be clear, I'll get charged for Onyx and back Alienskin (together) at Checkout and you'll adjust the price later on your end? It does look like I'm getting charged for both.
What's the email address I need to send with my device type?
I've sent you 4 emails regarding a refund, and haven't received any reply.
Amazing you find the time to reply on the forums but ignore direct emails.
Thanks for the help! I just placed an order for Onyx successfully. I made a note with my device type in the comment box at Checkout. When do think it will get shipped and when I should expect it (California, US)?
I hope I would like this product as I plan to carry my Jet Black naked.
Hi do we have an eta on shipping? I placed an order 4 days ago and have tried emailing you with no luck as of yet..I think you would be a great ambassador for our products

@kellyleekyle
Yes very soon, from 1 of the top tech guys on youtube, when it's done I will post the link for sure.
I need a glossy back protector. Preferably not a liquid one. Spigen makes one for the 6 plus but it's kind of matte.
I placed a order early Friday morning (Europe time), I see a hold on my creditcard from your company. When will you be shipping my order?
thanks
I'll take that offer!@chfilm
Thanks for the questions
So how is onyx applied?
Just 3 drops from the bottle / 3 coats
Will it protect the phone from those micro scratches everyone is so afraid of?
That's a bit of a tricky question, for example some types of sand have some very hard minerals inside quartz being the main offender of micro scratches, if it's just day to day dirt and dust then it's not a problem. With a case as you well know that over time it accumulates dirt and dust and can still scratch your phone.
I'm too paranoid, can't even have the iPhone 6s without a leather case, after it fell down and the screen shattered horribly...
Our Alien Skin film has shock resistance as well, the videos can be seen on our website (I don't want to post any links and be accused of spamming, I'm genuinely here to answer questions not promote our products)
And please tell us some more info about the alien skin. It's like a regular protective film but better?
The Alien Skin & Shock Stopper (front screen protector) are not normal PET films that other full body skin companies use, these are all from China and pretty poor performance, our film is imported from... GermanyWe then top coat it with self healing properties, then cut in to the phones shapes.
At some point the edges always looked nasty or there was some air trapped inside
Some of the cheap films go a yellow colour and this can look like the film is dirty, our film has anti-yellow properties so we don't have this issue.
The application is very easy and bubble free, you can see that on our website. For some reason your skin gets damaged or beyond use you can get a replacement for free (just shipping costs) it has a life time guarantee.
Hope that answers some of your questions.
If I get 10 requests for the following offer in this post then we will setup a coupon number on checkout and include the Alien Skin back piece for your jet black with your purchase of Onyx exclusively for mac rumour members. How does that sound ? That way you have double protection with a lifetime guarantee.
Bestskinsever.com has a glossy and a matte skin available. Liquid application process, but the pics of the glossy on the JB 7 I've seen look good.
How is the cut out at the bottom of the iPhone? Thinking of ordering your product with the offer included in the onyx.
Try Elago Slim Fit 2. I got a clear one for my JB7 (that I'll hopefully have in a few weeks...)
