I've just ordered an MDA Vario and it's going to take a little time to reach me (I'm not currently in the UK). Before it gets here I'm trying to work out which screen protector to buy. Has anyone tried the Invisible Shield protector? The material looks superb and I've read load of good things about their performance on iPods.
My current PDA is a Tungsten T3 and I have a Martin Fields screen protector on it. (MF protector for Wizard here).
I love the MF but am really interested in hearing experiences with the IS if anyone on these forums has tried it.
Yeah i want one too but was wondering, do they leave any marks when you peel them off afterwards? From the glue and stuff?
Quality screen protectors like Martin Fields and the IS should leave nothing behind after they're removed.
I think brando screen protector is not bad too. Im currently using it.
I have change 2 screen protector since I got my wizard.
- Expansys, Cant fit in properly. Bubble occur after stick in.
i've tried 3 different screen protectors, then i used pocketpctechs AG shield and i'm not gonna try anything else. It's perfect, reusable, no glue is used and installation is pretty simple. also it comes with screen cleaners and all that. highly recommended
For me brando's would be ok. I usually have the store person do the application since I can't do it on my own [I messed up 2 protectors when I tried doing it at home]. I'd say choose one that isn't adhesive but static that way no residue is left on the screen when you remove it. also most of them are washable/reusable... if you find a scratch on the side you use most often [i.e. the area along the SIP] just have it removed and re-installed reversed [not the face but the top and bottom].
The Brando ultraclear is OK. If you prefer a non-glossy one, the Brando regular is perfect (you will lose a bit of brightness).
I like www.boxwave.com 's version
They have a anti-glare, and a regular one, they are washable you can remove them and wash them under soap and water and reapply, they come with cloth cleaner, and a little scraper thing that helps get the bubbles out.
Here's a super cheap solution, and it works GREAT for me.
I went to Staples and bought a package of baseball card protector pages that are designed to fit into a 3-ring binder. The size of each card holder is just slightly larger than the screen on the MDA.
What I did was take a straight edge and X-Acto knife and cut a small piece of plastic that is a couple millimeters larger than the screen on each side. I simply tuck the plastic I've trimmed under the lip between the device and screen, and it holds in place just fine.
No adhesive, no mess, easy as pie, and the entire package of plastic sleeves was less than 3 bucks. It will surely last longer than the life of the device.

Got my second Brando regular protector (first one wasn't returned when my magician was replaced). Fits perfect, very scratch-resistant & the anti-glare is very useful while navigating in the car.
Cheers, M

Same here.. I have used BoxWave, wich are also very good, but WriteShields from pocketpctechs are great.
I also had an "InvivibleShield" on my 8125 for a couple minutes. I installed it and saw that it was not plum on, so I went to take it off and reinstall.. When I removed it I thought I was going to pull my screen up with the protector. Stay away from those things... I then tested those claims they make on the website, about being indestructible. Pens had no trouble getting through, and scissors went through like soft butter.
$.02
I bought a boxwave and was not happy with the glare free one. I have used them on my Treos and liked them, but the one that came for my wizard sucked. It really blurred the screen and made it look like a prism. Maybe it was defective, but I ended up buying another one from javoedge and I am quite happy with it.
just my $.02

I also got an anti-glare from boxware, it does have issues however I emailed them about it and they are getting a new one that doesn't have the issues and they should have it in about a week. To make it even better they created a gift order for the new one for me.
I've tried a number of the commercial screen protectors in the past and wasn't happy with any of them. Of course, there is the ridiculous cost for a little piece of plastic.
The best solution I have found is to use clear vinyl sheeting that you can find at any fabric store, typically for a couple of dollars US per yard. Just cut to fit your screen, clean your screen, wash your hands and vinyl rectangle with liquid hand soap, shake off as much water as possible (but not all), and attach and smooth out bubbles.
Benefits:
- Minimal screen image degradation as compared to many commercial screen protectors
- No adhesives to gunk up the screen
- Lasts 6 months or so
- Easy to replace
- Costs about a nickle per cover
I also have the pocketpctechs write shield anti-glare.
Comes in a nice kit, can't tell its there when the screen is on.

I bought mine from www.nushield.com, but I haven´t been able to apply the first one to my screen.
I´ve used them on my Handspring Visor Edge and on my Himalaya with very good results, but on the Wizard, I just can´t get it installed. Will keep you posted!

Brando screen protector, Boxwave and Martin Fields are my favorites!
I've heard a lot about this Brando, but it is a bit too expensive for me for a piece of plastic. I think they are selling for GBP7+ in eBay. I wonder, is it so good? I've been looking for those 'card' type screen protector that is ultra easy to apply and bubble free because the protector itself feels like a card. Imagine, since the protector is like a card, it is impossible to get bubble under it. Anyone know where in the net I can get one card type for UK??
BTW, I've bought the 'Sensifilm' protector from eBay. It said many things, but of the two thing, antiglare and antiscractch is 100% bluff. Mine still give me glare and it has been scratched like mad with my stylus. Either the HTC is very bad in designing a stylus, or the screen protector is terribly weak. I think the weak protector is a more likely answer.
30$ for a screen protector. That is so silly. I got a protector for my psp for 6$ and it works great. Geez, pocketpctechs is a rip.
Cant i get some from a local store instead?
I can highly recommend Brando UltraClear too! Easy to attach, not visible when attached carefully, no reduction of brightness - display looks like without one (for those who do not like the reflection of the display: buy the Brando classic).

Hey all.
1 month ago i bought the M.F screen protector, i heard it is one of the best screen protectors for the HD.
well 1 month, and i am very disappointed, it got scratches from nothing!
the screen looks and feels like there is sand on it, if you know what i mean. i Barely used it.
and its pretty expansive - 17$.
the funny thing is, that even with the stylus pen, when i was scrolling on the screen some times it was scratching it!
the stylus is not damaged so that it could hurt the screen.
im looking for a better SCREEN PROTECTOR.
can someone give me any suggestion?
very strange, i've used a martin fields protector since my HD arrived in February and there isn't a mark on mine
the protectore looks like a mess...all little scratches. when im using the stylus you can really feel them and hear it...
even the old screen protector i got feels and looks better than MF..
well nothing that i can do really about it, have any suggestions for another SP?
I personally have used Clarivue screen protectors on all my phones for a long time. They aren't scratch proof, but pretty resistant. They cost like 12 bux and you get a pack of 2, so they're not that expensive.
The fitment is perfect and a great way to hide scratches
ill check it out too..tnx
At least for me, Martin Fields, are the best ones. I've using for a long time in all my devices. Good quality, good service.
How can I said? Please, be in touch with Martin Fields by e-mail and I sure they will replace it.
Me too, mine looks like it's been shaped with a tin can opener around the top edge, covered in scratches after a week, looks genuine, bought of ebay uk.
Well.
some peoples say they are one of the bests, some people has the same problems, maybe we got ourselfs a fake? can that be possible?
or maybe factory defect?
even friends of mine says thos shields are the bests...thats strange,
in what kind of cases you got your Screen protectors?
mine was inside one that you have to cut to use it..it looked kinda cheap, but who knows
does sound like the people with poor experiences have bought fakes as my martin fields, as stated above, has been excellent (like the one i had on my N95 beforehand).
I bought mine from morpeth mobiles in the UK, as I never really trust ebay sellers
i bought mine from the MARTIN FIELDS main site...
here are some pics of the SP on my HD.
http://yfrog.com/5fimg0537nj
http://yfrog.com/5iimg0536lj
thats after i cleaned the screen with special cleaning material...that i use for LCD screens
look at the scratch in the middle, its huge, cause from a key.
the SP suposed to be with a protection from thos kind of scratches as i know...i barely touched with the key on the screen
nevermind removed
I also have scratches on my Martin Fields screen.
It's ridiculous because I keep my HD in a special mobile-case and then in my bag. I don't put it in pockets or with keys.
It's also delicately handled so it's ridiculous that it has a quite clear scratch mark.
Really very disappointing.
yea i told myself thats the last time im buying them...
the next is ZAGG or brando, they look great.
My MF protector also has lots of scratches on it. I bought it from their main site so it can't be fake. Am sure it says also that they have high scratch resistance when they clearly do not. They are expensive. Do you think if I complain they will send me another one? Even my protector that came in the HTC box was better and also a better flush fit. The MF one is shorter.
you right
the MF is a bit shorter..
i dont know if they will send you a new one fuz i did not try that my self...
i dont feel like waiting 1-2 weeks for another to come...i dont want another one if they look like that, high scratch resistance they are not..
Dusty Martin Fields
The original HD sheild that came with my HD was too tight a fit to get on properly. It also seemed tough and seemed to make the screen less touch responsive.
So I bought a pair of MF shields for $40 Au.(normally 1 for $30).
When I applied the shield, there must have been a lot of dust in the air, even though it was a very rainy night. (I should vacuum more often.)
I kept getting specs under the shield. I tried using sticky tape to remove the dust, as per instructions but the more I removed and replaced it, the worse it got. In the end I left it in place.
It is a very good shield. Clear, tough but flexible so that the touch response is not noticably affected. It is a perfect fit for the HD, with a 1/2 mm gap around the edge. The dust is visible in a certain light and looks like a lot of random scratches about 1 mm long. Sometimes it really seems scratched up, but it's not. After a couple of months of very heavy stylus use(about 50 reflashes too), the surface is pristine.
One day I will replace it with the second shield and try not to get any dust under it.
Had my CP Armor one from ebay nearly 4 months now, No a single mark on it. Seeing as i quite often drop my phone onto the pavement or road its going pretty well!
Are you sure you removed the second layer off the screen protector?
I am wondering which ones you guys bought for your players (Obviously those screens are too nice to be scratched ). I got the Zagg Invisibleshield on their cyber Monday sale for $8
Same thing for me, same promotion. Now, I hate those Zagg guys.
But the important thing I guess is that the screen protector works well.
I bought a cheap ebay set, used for 2-3 weeks, removed. They scratched too easily. I like it bare! Have nice leather case, hopefully I won't scratch it... or good ones will become available.

After trying different types of screen protectors for my phone and tablet, I found that it is best to bare it. Screens produced these days are very tough actually, I don't have any scratches on any devices so far.
These days I only get screen protectors to deal with fingerprints... The Moshi screen protectors AT&T carries are great for this. Problem is that since the SGP5 isn't an AT&T phone, I don't get the usual 50% discount on accessories I get.
I had a ZAGG InvisibleShield on my Huawei S7, which was decent, and reminds me I need to eBay that piece of **** tablet. (Whatever you all do - don't buy Huawei products. They've improved build quality a lot, but customer support for their devices SUCKS.)
The SGP5 is a fingerprint/fingersmudge magnet.
I find there are fewer fingerprints bare than with a protector (at least the cheap ones). A bare screen also cleans much easier. I may try one of those matte anti-fingerprint ones. Bare is so smooth and responsive!

Yeah, the Moshis I had on my Infuse and have on my GSII are matte anti-fingerprint - love em'!
I got on my 2 Galaxy tabs Ghost Armor but on my 2 SGS II i got the Zagg but I will take it off and go with the Ghost Armor, I like it better!!
i got a skinomi screen protector and carbon fiber skin protector. the screen protector works pretty well, the skin is really just for a little more grip.
i had some issues with shipping, but, long story short, they had some great customer service, and they ended up shipping me two.
I have seen a lot of comments about Zagg that the screen protector feels rubbery or sticky to the touch. Is that correct? How about the ghost armor.
At this point, I have not put anything on. I like the look and touch of the screen, and I the only pocket that I would put my SGP 5 in is my shirt pocket. It has a folio case for traveling.
I would like to keep the screen protected, but just don't know what to use that I have not read bad comments about.
I have zagg on 2 of my devices and they were both a little sticky feeling for the first week or so, but as you use it, it irons out to a perfect smooth. I love Zagg and I'll get one for every device I own!

I got a Skinomi screen protector and wood skin for my Archos 70. The skin gave it better grip but after 6 months, the skins small pieces kept falling off. The screen protector though is great. Never coming loose. I had a couple scratches show up on it but after a few minutes they disappeared. Also the bare screen was a finger print magnet but once I go this screen protector on it was much better. Loved Skinomi screen protector so much I ordered one the for my Samsung 5 minutes after I ordered the device itself. Screen protector came before the device so I was able to put it on right away. Looks great, finger prints barely show up, never need to clean off the screen, never got any scratches showing up.

Supposedly the Zagg are made of the same material as the Skinomi. I noticed that it does have a little bit of a rubbery feel which doesn't bother me. It also did have a bit of a sticky feel, but that went away after a while. I thought maybe I got used to the sticky feel but I had one of these on my Archos tablet and the sticky feel went away, then when I got my Samsung and put a skinomi on that I felt the sticky again so it was not that I got use to the sticky feeling, it actually went away (The sticky feeling on my Samsung is now gone). I don't think I'll ever get another mobile device without getting a Skinomi screen (or ZAGG if they happen to be cheaper).
How is the quality, I want a protector for my SGP, too
I had a cheap Ebay one on it, but took it off because it got greasy way too fast. I like it bare, I'm not too worried about scratches. I tried scratching it with an exacto knife and it didn't scratch. I carry it around in this case which protects it very well: http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-...GEOQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1327694289&sr=8-1
I also have this case on the device, that gives it a good grip and additional protection.
I use an xtreemegaurd. I like it a lot! Easy to install, and I only have like one or two air bubbles, (not on the screen)
I bought a basic TPU
I bought 2 but I lost one, always good to have the film on it
any tips on how to remove bubbles on screen protectors? they're annoying
Remove protector is easiest way. I've been running bare for a month, no scratches yet! Otherwise if you are careful you should be able to get no bubbles. They are usually caused by lint or dust specks. You can try pealing back and using tape to remove the dust, then roll it back down. I have yet to find a protector that feels as good as the raw screen (which seems very durable)

I am using Stealth Shieldz. They are just like Zagg, but a lot cheaper and come with two. They are like 3 dollars on amazon. Absolutely no air bubbles. It is also a tad bit thinner than zagg I believe. It is a great screen protector. Lifetime warranty. So far so good.

Just got my first screen scratch on my new Rezound yesterday and have been kicking myself ever since. I've used screen protectors in the past on my tablets, but I personally didn't like the way they felt. They felt plasticky and cheap, whereas the glass screens were so smooth and premium-feeling.
My question to you, the Internet, is about screen protectors. Which one do you like most? Which one feels most like glass/is least noticeable/etc.?
(I searched, but most of the recommended ones in other threads are not produced for the Rezound yet.)
I havent found any legit ones on ebay yet. I like the rubbery film protectors not the hard plastic ones. My favorite for the Inc1 and 2 was the NakedShield. Those were awesome. Couldnt even tell there was anything on it.
I bought one from ebay by "xtreme guard" and it was awful. Pretty good materials but terrible shipping. I got several replacements from him because he ships them alone in an envelope and they come stuck to the side and rip when taken out. I told him several times and attempted to send him pictures of me opening the envelope and seeing the destroyed product but he didnt care
I have one from verizon that I got when I purchased the phone and it's ok, but I have used the seidio ultimate screen guard on every phone I've had since the Evo 4g on Sprint and I really like the feel of them. It's really clear, goes on easy and doesn't feel sticky. I would recommend them.
http://www.seidioonline.com/htc-rezound-screen-guard-protector-p/spm1htrzd.htm
I like the rubbery kind cause they don't scratch or mar.
I use the Ghost Armor brand.
It's crystal clear.
Smooth but not plastic feel.
Some people talk about orange peel effect, for me I only see it if I hold the phone at extreme angle. I never see it or feel it in actual use.
The Ghost Armor seems to be more finger oil resistant than nakedd or the plastic static screen protectors.
And with Ghost's you get life time replacements for your device.
They also have kiosk in malls, where they do installs and replacements.
Yeah $5 replacements and $20 for initial product and install. Ebay protector costs $2 and does the same thing plus I don't have to stick it in an oven or coat it in water.
anybody find one that covers the whole screen including the camer, LED and light sensor?
I've been using (and loving) Skinomi. Yeah, with that name it sounds like it should be sold in a sex shop, but it's a fantastic screen protector. It feels like the bare glass, is crystal clear, and can be put on easily.
You know, now that I think about it, maybe it SHOULD be sold in a sex shop...

Well that's one way to look at it. My previous phone I put the full body Ghost armor on myself, went like 9 months, no case, then it started to peel around the edges got it re-skinned for 5 and it lasted another 18 months until I got this phone.
I tried those static protectors and I just don't like the feel, and they get smudges galore.
E-bay may have something just as good or better but I don't know what it is, and don't have the time to waste buying from a bunch of different places. There's probably a thousand choices on eBay, but I have no clue which is good or if they are even consistent with what they sell. They may be getting screen protectors from several manufacturers.
I'm not certain, but I thought the 5 buck replacement is only if you have it re-installed at a kiosk?
I picked up the clear Halo ones off of Amazon, and am really happy. Don't like the rubbery Zagg ones, and don't like the anti-glare ones as they seem to mess with the clearness of the screen.
I bought the clear Verizon ones when I picked up the phone, and while they are clear, they scratch very easily.
I've had the Halo ones for about a week. They are just as clear, and haven't scratched yet. They fit better than the Verizon, a bit wider so they cover edge to edge, but not quite tall enough. (When you install them, start at the top)
http://www.amazon.com/Halo-Screen-P...ZBEI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1327964467&sr=8-1
so far the Seido ultimate screen guards have satisfied me, as clear as the glass, no distortions at any angle... I do recommend!
Just got a second one from "Clear Freak" on ebay. He sent me one for the wrong phone. So I'm having no luck with eBay protectors. I trimmed it to fit but wouldnt advise it. I do tint all day so it came pretty easy to me
Pretty happy with the one that came with my otterbox. tried the Zagg but didnt get along with that one.
I have the REALOOK Crystal Clear one. works very well and no distortions. fits the front plate perfectly from edge to edge. It covers the capacitive buttons, camera hole, and proximity sensor.
Applied in a steamed bathroom and result had no air bubbles.

Not a good idea. Had several people call in with water damage on their phones and I had to tell em tough luck. Doesn't matter if it actually has water damage just if the external or internal sticker turns pink

I just got in my Boxwave Crystal Clear today and it fits over the entire glass top to bottom with a cutout for the front facing camera. I had one on my Dinc for 2 years and it was great--got very view scratches--and I like the feel on the screen. They are expensive but can be removed, cleaned, and replaced.

I've had these for about a month, and they're the best. It still feels like you just have the glass on it still, and it really does cover every part of the glass area. You honestly forget there's anything on it.

I love my ZAGG protector. They're difficult to put on, but it's worth it. Had one for the DInc and it lasted the entire two years until my upgrade, and is still currently on there! I don't get the rubbery feel that others mentioned, mine is smooth as a baby's bottom.

Press your fingernail into the black area above or below the screen. You will see it is not hard like the bare glass. That small bit of give is what is being described. The static screen protectors don't have that.

I agree, REALOOK Screen Protectors are good quality. It covers the entire face, with anti-glare and anti-fingerprint qualities...
So, I just got the phone this past weekend when it came out. Today was its first day to go with me to work, and the screen protector faired poorly. There are two "permanent smudges" from rubbing, and many, many, MANY scratches all over it. I have no idea how this happens from just sitting in my pocket, unless there's dirt and dust rubbing against it causing the damage.
So after one-day, the Sprint-store screen protector is trashed.
Any phone pocket'ers have any suggestions as to screen protection?
The "Body glove" case faired OK, so at least the back-side is ok!
I once had an "SGP" screen protector on the Evo Shift, and it was good and a little more resilient, but it still ended up with smudges and scratches from riding in my pocket.
I would just use the "Gorilla Glass" screen but the the "permanent smudge" pocket wear marks would be on the screen instead of a screen protector!
I haven't used a screen protector since my Evo 4G. I used two different kinds and I don't even remember what they were. I actually stopped using the second one because I didn't feel like I could swipe my finger across the screen smoothly enough. I actually broke my 4G by throwing it at a wall. The screen didn't crack, but it no longer worked. That little fit of rage assuaged any concerns I had about the screen ever breaking.
Zagg screen protector. Get the "HD" one-can't even tell it's there. Lifetime warranty. totally worth it. I gave used them on all my devices for years.
Edit: they are guaranteed not to be scratch-even by keys!

I don't recommend the zagg shields they get orange XO is good but feel rubbery too, is hard to find a perfect screen protector but don't buy sprint one they completely suck

2nd Recommendation for a Zagg Invisibleshield HD. They are amazing and you can't tell they are there. They have a lifetime warranty in case they peel or start to turn orange, feel like glass not rubbery at all, and are amazing. I have one on my Kindle Fire too.
I just looked up the Zagg InvisibleShield and that's the second screen protector I had on my original Evo. I didn't really like it. It covered the whole screen and offered great protection, but I hated the way it felt. Having gone about a year without any kind of screen protection, I must say I prefer a naked screen to a protected one.
A buddy of mine had an OtterBox Defender for his Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket and eventually got tired of having the screen protector.
It's your prerogative to have a screen protector. I can vouch for Zagg's reliability and protection, but it gives an orange peel effect and makes swiping your finger across the screen more work. Having dropped my phone on various surfaces and throwing one across the room at a wall, I don't think these screens really need protecting.

You had the orig Zagg not the new HD ones. The new ones rock even compared to the older ones.
Will
I will personally never use another screen protector after launching my phone into a wall and picking it up to see it was not cracked. The screen no longer worked, but a screen protector would have done nothing to change that. I would rather invest my money in a case that will protect other parts of the phone that aren't quite as indestructible.
It sounds like the Zagg screen protectors are still the best. I was hoping to find a dry screen protector, but I guess they still haven't made any of them. But I did want to ask a stupid question about the Zagg screen protectors. Above people where talking about an HD version of Zagg screen protectors. Is that the same as the link below, because I don't see the words HD on the page, that said I saw it all over their main page, so it might just be that all their screen protectors are this HD version now. Is that correct, and is this the link everyone is talking about?
http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield/htc-evo-4g-lte-cases-screen-protectors-covers-skins-shields.php
The HD version is sold exclusively by Best Buy right now. So it's not on their site.
Check out the XO Screen Protectors.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qoMRO4OiXw4
I also am with the Zagg HD. I like it, is very clear, and very thin. you'll hardly notice it.
Haha what in the world happens in your pockets? I've had the Sprint screen protector on my phone and in my pocket for two weeks and it is as good as ever. I've had people continually tell me that I need to put a screen protector on my phone because I'm going to mess up the screen... It's that clear and smooth! I typically don't like Sprint's accessories, but I love this thing so far! I had an Invisishield before and hated it. Maybe the HD ones are better, but I just can't bring myself to do it again.
Zagg HD all the way, can't even tell it's there

+1 on the zagg HD, just got it today at bby with their rocketfish softcase, gel case, installed for only $35. Had a 35 gift card so I didn't complain. Having had the original zagg case for a short while on my OG EVO and going to this new HD case I can definitely tell the difference, I much prefer this screen protector.

i would wait for an sgp screen protector. from what i hear they are the best of the best when it comes to screen protectors. i personally have never used a screen protector so i don't know first hand but none the less. also ive had my evo for about a year and a half and there is not one scratch on it so i don't think i will buy one for my lte when i get it in november
I maintain that these phones do not need screen protectors, but if a $15 purchase gives you peace of mind, go for it. I would rather put that money towards a case that protects parts of the phone that are far less indestructible.
I also put down the money for a Seidio active case as well as my Zagg HD screen protector. I don't go cheap on something so expensive to replace.

i know its not out yet but http://www.clear-coat.com is by far the best protector ive ever had for a phone hands down. the hands on demo on the front page is completely legit. things work no doubt.
Throw in another vote for Zagg HD....I too was a hater of screen protectors on a touch screen phone. Always ruined the touch.....I understand some of the haters out there...I was a strong hater of screen protectors.
This though is unbelievably good...like others have said, its like its not there.....feels like the glass. If you get one from best buy, have them install it....if you don't like the job they did they will put another one on at no charge until you are happy. Bubbles will work out after a few days....I have never been this happy about a screen protector.
Besides...you still have 30 days to return it if you decide you don't like it.
