You have a shiny new iPhone 4, and I’m assuming you’d like to keep it shiny, right? One way to keep your iPhone 4 scratch free is to put a screen protector on it. XO Skins’ screen protector does just that and more by covering every flat surface of your iPhone 4 without reducing screen quality. However, installation is a little more involved than that to which you may be accustomed.

When we give away items here at Appletell, it’s not so much about the publicity as it is about spreading the love. Peace through freebies, we say. And to prove our sharing spirit, here’s a giveaway that has nothing to do with us. The fine people over at Apple Thoughts are offering two XO Skins for iPhone, and entries are being accepting through July 23rd.

I knew the XO skin was going to be a high quality product before I even opened the box. The packaging alone gave me some good vibes, and I was quite surprised by the contents inside as I opened it. I was expecting a plastic skin and nothing else (as per usual when buying skins), but instead got a few more items I soon found out were for applying and maintaining the skin, which confused me. I figured it would be as simple as putting the skin onto the iPhone, but I was wrong.
