Default Just received my cover...

Just received my personalised design from Garskin today. I got it in the beige leather texture which isn't exactly 'matte' but it does feel leathery as promised. I actually really like the texture of it.

Pros:
The image that I selected came out much better than I expected. The image is clear and exactly how I designed it. (It does seem a bit yellower than I remember though.. but that might be my own mistake during the designing process.)
The build of the case is good as well. It is a good fit and does not 'squeak'. The case also arrived earlier than I expected. Also, despite the cover being a sticker (more on this below), it does not feel cheap at all due to the leathery texture. Last thing I want is for it to JUST look like a cheap sticker which I paid so much for. phew.

Cons:
I was imagining the case to be designed and cured individually, however, this is not the case. Your 'design' is simply a sticker that is stuck onto a black case. Hence if the workmanship is not good, there are gaps and glimmers of the black case can be seen. In my case, the areas around the keys and d-pad weren't as closely paid attention to as they should have been. There was also slight peeling of the sticker at the volume control button area.

Others:
Because of the sticker cover, the case was actually thicker than normal. This thus makes my buttons 'flushed' with the front cover. To me, I actually like this. But others may not.

Hope this helps.
