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
Confirm Honor 7X
Match the exact model and order. Identify your selected sections and leave unused ones on the backing.
Clean and dry
Switch off and unplug the phone. Follow the manufacturer's surface-care advice and let fitting surfaces dry.
Get ready to fit
Use clean, dry hands and good lighting. Watch first, with the supplied instructions nearby.
Fitting your Honor 7X skin
Use the video for the exact positioning and application order of your chosen coverage.
-
Check the reference points
Compare the camera and other cut-outs with the outer margins before pressing firmly.
-
Smooth gradually
Follow the backing-removal method shown. Work progressively and avoid touching the adhesive.
-
Finish without pulling
Do not stretch the skin to reach a cut-out. Use gentle hairdryer warmth only where instructed.
-
Inspect before use
Keep sensors, cameras, controls and ports unobstructed. Avoid a case catching the edges.
Installation questions
Can a similar model's video help?
Yes, for the basic technique with the same skin type. Your skin must still match the exact Honor model.
What if an opening is off-centre?
Stop and check the model and orientation. Do not cut the skin on the phone or stretch it into position.
What about bubbles or lifting?
Do not use a pin or excessive force. See our troubleshooting guide.
