Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Sadly, given the description posted for this product, I'd say it approaches false advertising. The thickness of the "skin" is on the order of .005" (five thousandths). While the designs and colors are very nice, the impression given is one VASTLY different than what the material can be expected to provide.
Certainly, the product will function to reduce scratches and abrasion to the 'pod, but for how long?
Even my daughter, to whom "looking cool" counts more than function, was disappointed in both the feel and look of the skins. Fundamentally, I feel that I've wasted $20, in that the time/hassle factor makes it not worth returning the things.
A more detailed, and forthcoming description of the product is in order.
Fundamentally, the "wrap" is a THIN layer of plastic on paper backing. Like an address label, it uses an adhesive to hold the "wrap" on the 'pod. This is susceptible to edge curling and all the other weaknesses of a sticky label. It does not wrap around to "protect" the bottom or top of the 'pod. Certainly, it will afford a certain amount of abrasion resistance, but the level is in question. I also am VERY wary about the length of time the adhesive would remain good along with concern that the edges would wear and come loose.
In the meantime, we've acquired "proper" skins for our pods and are much happier.
On the brighter side, the screen protecting panel works well, it adheres without adhesive, is thick enough to be viable and stays in place very well. Both of us are using this part of the product.
