Just received my LuckyLabs in the mail a few days ago, heard people saying that the white wraps turn yellow after a while so I decided to try the Hula case with it because the Hula case offers clear sides, so far its compatible and looks quite nice, almost like a naked iPhone. This is my first set of these wraps, and I am loving them.
Here are a few pictures:

Hope you don't pocket your phone. Those shiny new white wraps will turn yellowish after awhile
I went back to the matte black ones
I don't know how dirty some people are, but I've been using my white wraps since early October and they're still just as white as the day I put them on.
Mine is completed naked except for the lucky lab wraps and is always in either my pocket or my hands. Here's a pic from 4 months ago when I switched from matte black to white:

so where's the yellowing?

Oh, I think I have glossy white. But thanks that's good to know. Maybe I'll just use it Naked, but I just dropped my phone about an hr ago, it bounced on the hula case, thank god. No idea how I dropped it, I hardly ever do. But I might just keep the hula case on. Looks nice and still looks close to naked.
better hang on to that thing if you go naked!!! ha either way thepics with the hula are pretty nice.
My Lucky Labs Spectral Wrap came today. Tried the Matte White and it does not fit perfectly in my iphone. Pics:
As you can see, it didn't fit perfectly... removing it now
I don't know why it does not fit perfectly, the sticker seems to be longer than the iPhone... It's covering the antenna, the other details (sleep button, mics, etc) seems perfect.

What doesn't fit? From your pics they look like they fit just fine. Depending on how gentle you are while installing, you may have stretched the vinyl, but regardless, I don't see what you're talking about.
Actually, I second that. I purchased white as well, mine didn't fit perfectly either. I actually had to cut it so it didn't block the antenna band because it was blocking my signal. So its not all perfectly lined up, looks a little off but I'm not gonna complain, its barely noticable.
Yep. That's the reason I won't let it cover the antenna band. The signal in my house isn't so good... I won't put something that will make it even worse. I hope to get a replacement with the size fixed. The transparent one fit perfectly, but it was SIMCard cut out.
Hmm interesting, because I got my uncut as well, I didn't want the sim card to show as I don't think I'll need to access it until the new iPhone comes out that is..![]()
They cover the antenna band and it blocks the signal (from the carrier (3g), wi-fi, etc). It's not meant to cover them, as you can see in the official pictures of theluckylabs. I've trashed them. I contacted luckylabs, let's see what they answers.
I'll still stand by that it was likely user error and you may have pulled too hard on the vinyl causing it to stretch. Regardless, I actually do this to mine on purpose to cover up the antenna band more. Doing so doesn't hurt reception, if anything it improves it (in the same manner invisible shield, bumpers, etc do) because your hands don't touch the antenna and therefore don't disrupt the connection as much as bare skin. If the thin vinyl from lucky labs degrades your reception, what would a thick rubber/plastic case do?!!? Think next time.![]()
Have you used the front or back decals? If so, do they add any texture or improved grip?
I'm looking for a skin/decal for the back only that will add grip.
It wasn' user error, the wrap that was SIMcard cut out was perfect. That's not the first time I apply the wraps. It still covers the antenna and it does still block the reception, a little bit but does. Also, covering the antenna makes it look ticker in the antenna parts and easier to unstick.
Just applied mine on today. I'm quiet impressed but it's also stretched out in the same exact spot covering the band and going over the other. Not gonna complain, it looks quiet nice actually aside from the extra.
