Pretty neat, but that $50 price tag is absurd.

They aren't marketing them properly they're magnetic and clip round the console they aren't skins ๐Ÿ‘

That's unfortunately on par with what Dbrand would charge for it, so I'm not too surprised.

Make sure to get skins that have flames if you actually want an upgrade to performance.

Everyone knows flames make stuff go faster.

Hopefully they won't get scalped as quickly as the console covers on the PlayStation side of things... although tbh I feel like those console wraps will probably be more of a pain to get to fit perfectly, ie 30+ min process with a hairdryer and multiple cuss words, so they might not be as in demand?

Oh, cheers for the heads up! They clearly should have named them differently.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Oh 100% but naming things has never been their strong point ๐Ÿ˜…

Dbrand and others had these for years.

These look like solid fabric that fit around the console but don't use any adhesive to directly stick themselves to it.

My understanding is that the Dbrand type stuff is just big expensive stickers.

Wraps? These aren't wraps. These are enclosures. Theyre hard material that fit around the console, not stickers.

From a distance. Up close it's definitely an air fryer
