I got bestskinsever but it really sucks. Don't buy it. I wanna my money back.

First of all, the films just come in a cardboard envelop. No plastic wrap. Many paper dusts on the edge of the films.

Second, no instruction.

Third, the sizes are so wrong. The top film is too big, especially around corners. It'll peel easily if I slide the macbook in a bag. The film for the battery cover, the position of the hole for the rubber part is over 1mm wrong. The film for the back black part, 1.5mm longer than the part. The front side parts (separated at the center), the hole for the battery indicator button is 1.5mm wrong. 1mm overlap at the center, 0.5mm stick out to CD slit...

I'm not all thumbs but found it's really difficult to apply. Seems Bodyguardz one is really nice. better to get it with warranty. The cheap thing has a reason that it's cheap.
 
Roller, i would say i have my installation done almost perfectly, no air-bubble, no bad lining, and etc.. everything is great(spent quite some time tho).. :) i consider the macbook shield installation pretty easy in comparison to the iphone!!

to be honest, i love the aluminum feel better.. anyone agree with me?
 
It really depends on how you install. When I first install bestskinsever, I thought I did well, but I had lots of bubbles. Then in the 2nd round (btw, this can be removed easily), I made sure to use credit-card like plastic to move bubbles to the side. It may look all the bubbles out, but you still want to use your credit card over that surface to move bubbles. It turned out perfect.

It can be quite sticky too work on, but in that case, you can complete dip the skin and slide on the surface. You just need to move water out using your old credit card.

I wear 3 rings, so I like the idea of being able to carry it without worrying about scratching it. The look of the BodyGuardz I think is the best of the 3, clearest, least shine, while sacrificing some feel for better grip. You still see the aluminum which to me is important over seeing plastic. I personally don't have one yet, but from all the pictures it looks the nicest while providing protection.
