Color Shield for iPhone 4 & 4S Review

2011-12-02
what's up guys it's Lou from unbox therapy and today we're taking a look at a product called color shield from brixon this product is a skin or a shield for your iPhone 4 or 4s and it comes in a number of different colors as you can see in front of me here they sent me a bunch and the reason for that is because I'm gonna give a bunch of them out to you guys really cool people over there now the question is which colors should I give away and which should I keep what should I install I think I'm gonna go ahead and surprise you guys right here I'm gonna install the pink one on my iPhone 4s and right about now you're saying wait a minute here Lou I don't peg you for a pink kind of guy and let me let me tell you something about rockin pink if you can put pink on your iPhone and get away with it and dare people to say anything about it and back up your color decision then hey you're a true badass nah I'm just kidding this is for my wife she saw this color and went head over heels plus she's rockin the perforated case from incase if you haven't seen that unboxing I'll put a link in the description as well as the annotations and that's gonna allow the color to show through so it should be real cool now brixon includes everything you're gonna need to get this baby up and running you've got the color shield you've got these cleaning microfiber cleaning cloth you've got everything you need this is an anti-glare style protective film so no fingerprints hopefully you know no major glare issues and the colors actually called juicy pink how appropriate let's go ahead and get it popped open and see exactly what we get inside and also the installation procedure etc so first of all you've got this bricks an envelope and inside is all of your materials and then on the back of that envelope are some very detailed instructions some of the best I've actually seen on any kind of film or any kind of sticker decal you know how it goes now what I like about this particular product is it includes some alignment stickers because as we all know it can be a major major headache trying to install some of these things especially if you don't have a nice clean flat environment if you got dust particles floating around you can you can go pretty crazy trying to install these things now brixton has done a couple of things and included a couple of things to try and make this process easier I'll show you those in a second first of course the silicon squeegee the microfiber cloth make sure that you guys wipe down your phone that's the biggest thing you've got these alignment strips for making sure you're gonna get a straight installation and then you've got these cleaning stickers if you do get dust underneath your shield you can lift it and use the sticker to pull it off without smudging it up with your fingertip if you've ever experienced that before that's near impossible to get dirt off just using your fingertip now as you can see it does have that anti-glare coating you can see as you see my hand underneath here and I'm really impressed with is that with it at this point I mean I'll have to wait and install it and see how it looks with the screen behind it so through the magic of video editing here is installed and as you can see it has some incredible anti glare properties that fit and finish is unreal I mean everything is tight they've even included a button cover that has a gel kind of coating on it real nice overall and I'm amazed by the fit I'm not an expert at installing these things by any means and I was able to get it on here incredibly tight the cutouts are precise so this is definitely a high quality product they're retailing it for $19.99 it's on sale right now via their website I'm putting a link down in the description but I totally think it's it's a great value at that price you can definitely get crappier decals and skins than this for that amount of money so as I mentioned before we're gonna be using the encase on here as well the encase perforated snap case again if you haven't seen that unboxing I'll put a link up here and down below but the reason that this is gonna be a cool kind of combo overall when it's all said and done is because the color on the back actually Peaks through a bit so you're gonna get a lot of protection you've got skins on the front in the back and then on top of that you got the little snap case and you still get some of the coloring through it so a real cool overall package I know my wife is over the top I just showed it to her and she's absolutely loving it so anyway guys as I mentioned before this is real precision engineering it sounds kind of strange to say that about a product that's that's basically a sticker but really I've seen some bad ones out there and this one is not one of them this one is one of the best I've ever seen and it all comes down to fit and finish once you've got this thing installed you're not even gonna notice it's there it does not alter the design or functionality of the phone at all it just gives you that protection without the bulk real cool anyway guys I'm gonna give you a closer look here but otherwise stay tuned to the channel cuz as a lot of you know I'm gonna be doing an unboxing marathon tonight I've got a number of different unboxings planned and also stay tuned to the channel for the giveaway I've got you know these extra shields that I'm gonna be giving away so stay tuned for that and subscribe if you haven't yet otherwise guys if you enjoyed this content hopefully you can like and
