The Partnership

When producing Teardown skins, partnering with Zack "JerryRigEverything" Nelson was a no-brainer. His popular transparent-back mods are responsible for more voided warranties than anyone else on the planet. When Zack said he wanted to collaborate to bring that Teardown look to the masses, the deal wrote and signed itself - nobody tell Zack. Doing it yourself just got a lot more profitable... for us.

The Process

Picture the most advanced scanner in the world. We used that one. It ended up producing internal scans that were literally too detailed for general use - which is exactly how we wanted them. The result? Every single Teardown skin is guaranteed to be a 99% accurate representation of your device's internals. As for that other 1%... how good are you at Where's Waldo?

The Print

Ink costs a lot of money. Know what costs even more money? A $92,000 printer. For every skin you don't buy, 0.021% of the printer goes unpaid for. Also, Zack is gonna be pissed. Have you seen that guy in real life? You might, if you don't buy a skin. On the other hand, if you DO buy a skin, you'll see exactly why that printer is worth more than your college tuition. Who are we kidding? You didn't go to college.

The Protection

When you think of dbrand, you probably think of texture. Realistic texture. Well, trust us when we say you don't want your phone to feel like little Legos, exposed wires, and circuit boards. We needed to find something else. We found two things else: Teardown's original optically-clear finish, and our legendary Ultramatte texture. Pick one.

    Grip™ Case

    There are two components to the dbrand Grip™: the phone case itself, and the skin you apply to the back. You shouldn't disable this unless you already own a Grip™ Case. Don't say we didn't warn you.

    Grip™ Case

    There are two components to the dbrand Grip™: the AirTag holder itself, and the skin you apply to the front and back. You shouldn't disable this unless you're trying to purchase a standalone skin, or you already own a Grip. Don't say we didn't warn you.

    Tempered Glass

    In addition to top-of-the-line scratch protection, dbrand's Tempered Glass screen protector features smooth edges, a flawless edge-to-edge precision fit, and an installation process so easy, even you can do it. Buy a pair.

    Trackpad Skin

    For less than five bucks, we're giving you the opportunity to see inside your trackpad. To ensure a smooth slide under your greasy fingers, note that trackpad skins only come in our legendary Ultramatte finish. If you're looking for a trackpad skin in Gloss, please write down your request and throw it in the trash.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      • What is this?

        Teardown. It's like having a transparent back for your phone, without the voided warranty.

      • Why is this?

        Because glass is glass... and you definitely don't have the dexterity to complete your own transparent back mod.

      • When is this?

        Today. But also, forever.

      • How is this?

        Expensive scanners and printers, mostly.

      • Who is this?

        dbrand and Zack "JerryRigEverything" Nelson. Also you, if you buy one.

      • Where is this?

        That's a stupid question. We'll pretend you asked a smart one. Teardown comes in two finishes: Original and Ultramatte. Original has an optically clear gloss finish that produces vibrant colors and flawless visibility on the Teardown design. Ultramatte mutes the optical clarity and features a premium fingerprint-resistant texture.
