# Corky Mobile Skins The iPhone 4 Cork Board from Slickwraps Gives Your Mobile a Soft Finish By Peter Vallas | Published 2011-06-11 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slickwraps References: [thefancy](http://www.thefancy.com/things/251003759/iPhone-4-Cork-Board-Skins-from-Slickwrap) & [slickwraps](http://www.slickwraps.com/) If you are looking to add a little texture to your [iPhone 4](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iphone-4-concept), SlickWraps has exactly what you need. Most people find that cases tend to be very bulky at times and not natural. SlickWraps has a variety of textured and vibrant wraps to keep your phone looking unique without all the bulk. The latest from SlickWraps is its iPhone 4 Cork Board wrap. This easy-to-apply skin feels and looks exactly like a real cork board. Much like the company's griptape skin, the cork board skin is sure to make your iPhone 4 stand out from the rest. The Skin Wraps Cork Board design is quite affordable and it can also be made for other devices as well. I wouldn't go sticking any thumbtacks in it, though. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.9/10 - Popularity: 55% | Activity: 83% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/mobile) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Textured Mobile Skins:** Opportunity for businesses to create and offer unique, textured mobile skins that provide a tactile and visually appealing experience for smartphone users. - **Slim and Natural Phone Cases:** Disruptive innovation potential for businesses to develop slim and natural phone cases that enhance the aesthetics of smartphones without compromising protection and convenience. - **Affordable Custom Skin Wraps:** Opportunity for companies to provide affordable custom skin wraps for various devices, offering consumers a way to personalize and differentiate their phones without the bulk of traditional cases. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Mobile Accessories:** Disruptive innovation opportunities for mobile accessory companies to design and manufacture unique, textured skins and slim cases to enhance the user experience and provide customization options. - **Consumer Electronics:** The consumer electronics industry can explore the development of slim and natural phone cases that combine aesthetics, functionality, and protection to meet the evolving demands of smartphone users. - **Printing and Customization Services:** Printing and customization services can tap into the market for affordable custom skin wraps, catering to consumer preferences for personalized mobile devices and providing a cost-effective alternative to conventional cases. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Glow‑In‑Dark Tech Skins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/circuit-board-device.md) - [Textured Alcantara Smartphone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hard-graft-fuzzy-iphone-case.md) - [Customizable Phone Skins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/customizable-phone-skins.md) - [Slim Magnetic Smartphone Covers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nomad-magnetic-leather-back.md) - [Jewelry-Like Smartphone Protectors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rmour-candy-corner-protectors.md) - [Bright Textural Device Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/touch-grass-collection.md) - [Striking Red Device Skins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carnage.md) - [Stylish Aftermarket Technology Skins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/razer-skins.md) - [Minimal Textural Smartphone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ripple-case.md)
