Pimp Your Z1 Compact! - Xperia Z1 Compact General

Hi all,
I must say from having my z1 compact for about a week now it totally kicks a$$ over all the other phones I've had (and I've had a lot!)
The phone is fast, beautiful and feels sooo good in the hand!
I'll add my picture soon but wondering how everyone else has "pimped out" their Z1 Compact!?
In a couple of days mine will have temporary screen protector and will have the Punisher!! on the back

Well my skin finally came in the post!
And my Z1c looks and feels so cool in my hand! It protects the back without having to put a case on so it feels bulky in your pocket!
Plus I can safely place the phone down on the table without worrying about scratching the back!
Here's some snaps!

[Q] Do you like the US retail packaging?

What does everyone think about the US packaging? I personally want the bamboo packaging like the UK customers!
I think this clear box approach is a bit odd considering most will be sold online.

EDIT:
Seems like maybe this is not the official US packaging http://www.streaksmart.com/2010/07/dell-says-fancy-streak-box-is-not-final-us-packaging.html
Looks ace to me, never seen that before!
They seem to be going all out for the US launch, doesn't have the earth friendly of the Europe packaging but it sure grabs your attention now. I like, now Ill have a museum case for when I retire my Streak in a couple of years.

Aw I am the only one that likes the bamboo
.
Looks sexy. I could really care less about the packaging...just give me the friggin phone.
I have the USA release in the Museum display .. It is nice. But I would have been just as happy to have it in a small box like the iphone came in. Easier to ship if I one day sell it. I do NOT see that day coming any time soon. BUT THEN, have had it only 24 hours, still playing with settings and swype .. BTW, I LOVE SWYPE ..
I prefer the bamboo package,
and I am getting one real soon !

What did you use? I've taken off the coating with my nail which just scratched off.
I have no way of getting to a machine so it would have to be by hand.
I did it by hand as well, using 100, 600 and 1000 sanding paper, followed by metal paste (car chrome polish) and cloth.
Thanks. Ill try that.

2) I really like duo-color case
3) looks more luxurious
4) why not?

[Q] Nexus 4 Leather Pouch

Hello,
Does anyone recognize this leather pouch?
It looks like an OEM pouch for Nexus 4.

I think I should have posted this in Accessories sub forum...
Nobody?
This one?

I have that pouch and it's not oem. It's not even made of real leather. N4 sits in snuggly but it has to be naked meaning no cases or bumpers.
I'm not sure. Is it the same? The upper part looks different.
Forgot to post mine when I made the comment

Thanks a lot for posting the picture.
I guess I'll get one from Bugatti.
You can also go to dodocase.com and pick up a very nice leather wallet pouch from them for the Nexus 4. I'm getting one myself once I can afford it.
The phone is already too large for my taste, so I don't want a huge case like the one from dodocase.com.
I want the smallest possible case or pouch that fits the phone.

Just wanted to tell you this.

I am happy for you man!
I found out that you can connect a computer mouse ( Razer Diamond Back 3g ) via USB OTG and you are able to handle it.
never knew that !
I've on phone while it is in my back pocket. I nearly feel it was bending. Lucky me nothing happened.
Just bad luck bro.

[COVER] SP Carbon Fibre back cover

The back of my Black SP has always looked very plain to me so I decided to change that, for very cheap (£1) I bought some Carbon fibre foil online and applied it to the back of my SP.
Here's the end result.

I think it looks very stylish and it's very cheap and easy to do. Also if you don't like the black one there are many colours of foil to chose from.
What do you guys think?
Wow, looks good and is cheap, could you post the link?
I have always been deterred by the 'foils' and 'stickers' but that actually looks nice, was it hard to apply? Also what does the texture feel like? :fingers-crossed:
Also this thread should be in the Accessories section not General.

It wasn't very difficult to apply other than the mic, camera and the speaker holes, the texture is hard to describe, it's both rough and smooth, it's grippy when dry but becomes slippery with moisture on it, overall I really like it!

(good point on the accessories section, I forgot it exists)
Wow, wanting to do this with metalic red or blue on frame
