OnePlus 5T skin installation video

Follow the OnePlus 5T fitting video and compare your supplied pieces before peeling. Check that your order is for 5T rather than OnePlus 5.

Clear skin? Use our clear-skin wet-fitting guide instead of these dry-vinyl reminders.

Can't see your model listed? Use a similar model with the same skin type — the basic fitting method is the same. Cut-outs and alignment may differ, so always use a skin made for your exact device. Clear skins need the separate wet-fitting guide.

Before you start

Check OnePlus 5T

Match your phone and order. Identify each supplied section and leave unused pieces on the backing.

Clean and dry

Switch off and unplug your phone. Follow the manufacturer's surface-care advice and let fitting surfaces dry.

Watch before peeling

Use dry hands, good lighting and a clean workspace. Keep the supplied instructions nearby.

Fitting your OnePlus 5T skin

Use the video for the exact piece placement and application order. Fit only your chosen coverage.

  1. Check the openings

    Compare the camera and other cut-outs with the outer edges before pressing firmly.

  2. Smooth progressively

    Follow the backing-removal method shown. Avoid touching the adhesive or repeatedly pulling the same section.

  3. Finish the edges

    Use gentle hairdryer warmth only where instructed. Do not stretch the vinyl or make the phone hot.

  4. Inspect before use

    Keep controls, sensors and ports clear. Check that any case does not drag against a fitted edge.

Installation questions

Is this the OnePlus 5 guide?

Use the OnePlus 5 installation guide for that model. The skin must match your exact phone.

What if the cut-outs look wrong?

Stop and check the model, piece and orientation. Do not cut the skin on the phone or stretch it into place.

What about bubbles or creases?

Do not use a pin or extra force. Read our troubleshooting guide.
