Has anyone purchased a good dry application screen protector? I am looking for one that is anti-glare (matte) that has a good feel to it and covers the entire front face of the Transformer. If you have an EVO like I do, I am looking for something similar to the Sprint EVO screen protectors. Anything like this out there?
TIA

Thanks just took a look at it. Does this apply with the "two pull" method? Just made that up but, its the type of application wear you take off the backing, place the protector on the screen and then pull off the front. Hope that makes sense.
I know what you mean. It does. Pull one side and place it on the screen. Pull the other tab when done.

Sounds great. Going to look into it.
You have the dock too right? Any problems with wear on the screen protector where it rubs when inserting/removing the tablet?

None as of yet.
Don't use the dock a whole lot though.
I wish these guys made one for the Transformer. I have one for my Evo 3D and it's perfect.

Is Posr.us the only one that currently has a dry application screen protector for the Transformer?
Two words. SGP Store. Theres nothing better than those screen protectors. Period! I use it with the dock every single thing and this thing is fantastic! They also have leather skins for the back in Black and Brown.

Do you use the Ultra Fine or Ultra Crystal? If it's the Ultra Fine, how does the matte finish affect the clarity and brightness when compared to having no screen protector or a clear one? Also, does it affect viewing angles at all?

I just received my Ultra Fine a few days ago; It really is extremely fingerprint resistant and smooth to swipe on which is great.
Clarity/brightness is noticably reduced vs a clear / no screen protector, but it doesn't lower the image quality like some matte screen protectors (Brando) so I'm quite happy with it. Viewing angles seems about the same.
When I first applied the protector I did have a few fairly big bubbles I couldn't quite remove using the supplied squiggie, but after leaving the TF overnight most of the air bubbles disappeared themselves.

Just wondering if they are needed for the flyer or will they get in the way when you use the pen ?
Sent from my Flyer!
I just got zagg invisible shield and i love the way it feels with my pen. Now i get good fiction using it on the screen and i can use the other side of the pen as a stylus without worrying about scratching the screen because of the metallic stylus.
Whether to use a screen protector or not seems like a very personal decision, based on opinions I've read on XDA. But I recommend using one. The Flyer does not have Gorilla Glass, and several people on here have had problems with scratches. The difference in feel is pretty minimal with a good quality protector, even when using the pen. So I don't think it will bother you in this regard. Some people even like the feel of the pen with the protector better than without. Apparently, the matte protectors (which I don't have) provide a little more friction, so the pen slips less and feels a bit more like writing on paper.
I have a Skinomi protector, and happy with it. I've also used Bodyguardz on my phone, and very happy with it, as well. But at the time I bought my Flyer, Bodyguardz didn't make a screen protector for it yet. But now they do.
If you end up not liking the protector, you can always take it off. Then you are just out $15-20. Better than going without, and regretting it, as there is no easy way to remove the scratches once they are there.
This one is working well for me

Is there a screen protector that reduces glare? I have my flyer in the car and at night its a bit hard to see the screen given the reflective properties of my protector.

Do you notice any scratches from using the pen? The one I am currently using looked great until I started using the pen. Now I can see scratches everywhere the pen has touched.

I agree with this here. Was afraid of the interaction with the pen, but it feels great. I've always been weary of the anti-glare protector's ability to really protect the screen.

I bought this and it's really cool for fingerprints
I just got my Invisible Shield @ Best Buy last night for $9.99.
I really like the way it feels on the screen. IMHO way better than just the glass.
I've really liked using DC Mugen's matte screen protectors on my Samsung phone. They're great at reducing glare and fingerprints, and I prefer the feel over just the glass. I was glad to find that they started making a screen protector for the Flyer / View. They ship from Hong Kong, so it takes a few weeks to get them here in the US. Mine just arrived, and I'm not missing the fingerprints and glare.
Here is the link to their eBay store: http://stores.ebay.com/dcmugen
To me, screen film is a must for Flyer. First the screen as some others indicated not Gorilla glass, and the bare glass is no good to use the pen due to too low friction. A good-quality antiglare film is good for i) the viewing experience with no light reflection ii) lowered friction for good handwriting with pen iii) of course to protect screen for any possible scratches. Better to have one than worrying later
So far I didn't put any screen protector on my flyer. I ordered one from amazon and also bought the sagged invisible shield from BB. However with the zagg protector I am somewhat scared that I might get some of the application solution into the device.
So how safe is it to apply these and then squeeze the water out?

People apply the Zagg films with solution all the time. Just don't use too much solution. I'm personally not a fan of the Zagg stuff it's too sticky.
Lately, I've been putting on screen protectors from Photodon. I use their HD anti-glare model. Easy install, good clarity, reduces glare and finger prints. One of the best I've used and I've gone through a ton of brands with my various iDevices.

I didn't notice that it was a 3-pack until after I placed the order, which is a nice bonus.
I use the 'Boxwave' screen protectors and it works great. On my VIEW is the clear, they sell anti-glare but haven't tried it.
I'm updating the original post because I have now received and applied this screen protector. You can see the photos and my comments here:
https://plus.google.com/photos/105537586944716449433/albums/5696831693307582225
Overall, it's pretty darn good. The fingerprint problem is practically non-existent now and the Prime's screen brightness more than makes up for the slight reduction in sharpness the anti-glare screen causes - even on Auto-Adjust Brightness. I can attest to the fact, that with some care and warm soapy water, the screen are removable and reusable. And they're pretty cheap to buy on Amazon.
Some small complaints:
* The punchouts for the camera and light sensor are completely punched out and more that one person will mess up their install trying to remove them. Even after installation they are a bit unsightly.
* The was no cardboard applicator despite what the instructions say but I didn't use one anyway. And the included lint free cloth frays at the edges with some use and leaves particles behind. Try a coffee filter instead.
* It's likely you will have one side that doesn't quite adhere to the screen along the edge if you handle it from that edge. This can cause you to inadvertantly unpeel the screen from time to time. But I've had that with every screen protector I've had what isn't part of a cover.
If you have any questions ask away and I will try to help.

I dont but one of the biggest gripes i have right now (and mirrored by others) is the insatiable appetite this screen has for finger prints. And the glossiness.
I want a matte finish so i can see it clearly outside and not worry about blinding myself or anyone ....Can anyone who has put on matte screen protectors chime in on how happy they were...if the colors were muted too much (yes, glossy = gorgeous) and if the tacileness changed when sliding fingers?
While I have never personally used a matte screen protector, the general consensus is that they do dull the screen a bit and the texture a bit.

My boyfriend bought this same protector for his TF101 (although it was a 1-pack, not a 3-pack) and he's still happy with it. I personally think that the antiglare protectors make the screen look cheap and plasticky and would rather wipe off prints than have my screen look less clear, so I buy the crystal-clear ones (I have an order from the same company on Amazon for the crystal 3-pack).
Like a lot of you, though, he wanted to reduce glare and prints so it has worked well for him. He had a very problematic application but in a three-pack you get more tries, and all of the bubbles except for one or two settled out over time. The included stylus is a piece of junk.

Thanks for this, this has been popping up all over the place. While I appreciate the time and effort that went into this guide, half the stuff needs to be removed as its for the original transformer and could easily confuse someone.
for people who have it, how is the texture? my biggest gripe with screen protectors (next to the fact that i can never get them on clean with no bubbles) is that they have a more sticky texture compared to bare glass.
the coating on the prime's screen makes fingerprint cleaning super easy though for what it's worth.

To me, the TF101 one (the matte one) feels like the LCD screen of my laptop, the several-generations-ago Macbook Pro. Non-glossy, a little plasticky but not grippy/a problem for swiping a finger.

While that is true, I'll gladly trade some brightness for the matte smooth non-sticky texture and anti-glare.

Doesn't release til the 6th. I ordered one too, I'll update as to how well also. P.S. Skinomi's dry install screen protector is effin garbage...
I've used both on other devices. The matte skin does dull things up a bit, but if you want anti-glare that is the only solution you have. It also helps with finger prints a little. The clear, is just a screen protector which you will still get the glare and some finger prints. It just boils down to preference. I happen to HATE glare, so I usually stick with the matte. I'll just increase brightness by one notch and I'll be fine.
This screen protector seems to be in stock now on Amazon, anyone receive theirs yet??
I'm still hesitant to order one but I want to get rid of these damn fingerprints

In Codyco's defense... You do get really annoying with that. If you're going to be that repetitive about it, make sure it's a damnedly good formatted post, and right now it's not.
As for the OP. I had a Steinheill (SGP) antiglare/matte screen protector on my Samsung GT10.1 and I LOVED it.
I read my text books on my tablet so I am reading on it more than I am consuming video, and I could absolutely not stand at the glare on the screen. The screen protector even let me read the tablet outside without staring at the trees and their leaves behind me.
That being said, there was a slight degradation in screen quality but the antiglare tradeoff made it *much* more than worth it. Plus it makes swiping across the screen buttery smooth. However, that was a top quality screen protector. Ymmv with a cheaper brand.
I utterly cannot get the people who lambast them, as they have to deal with ridiculous amounts of reflections.
My transformer prime hasn't arrived yet, but it should any day now. I'd like to have a screen protector ready to apply when I unbox the tablet.
Has anyone here used this ZAGG invisibleSHIELD with their Transformer Prime? Does it actually fit right on the front and back? Are there any issues with clarity? Does it still allow your finger to slide smoothly across the screen like it's supposed to?

Update: I went ahead and ordered it, since it has a lot of good reviews with other devices. If you order the full body version from zagg.com you automatically get free shipping. Using the coupon code "fbfans25" will also remove $10 from the price.
Looks the same as Extreme Guard for twice the price.
I got the Extreme Guard one and even though the back skin looks and works great, I wasn't too thrilled with the screen protector due to it being slightly (very) off and I couldn't get it lined perfectly and ended up throwing it away.
I ordered the full protector and it's on it's way. I have really liked the Zagg products in the past on other devices. I will post an update when I get mine and have it installed.

Yes let us know what you think of it once you get it. I have one on my iPhone and I'm considering it for my Prime but I have the same concerns you do regarding look and feel. I'm also curious about the fit at the back. Does it stretch over the raised ASUS lettering or is it cut out?

Getting my Prime covered with GhostArmor tomorrow. They have kiosks at nearly every mall. If they do a bad job then you can request a refund. Costs 35 for full shield, and only 10 for following visits to entirely replace the skin.
I don't trust myself with clear shields.
i use the ZAGG TF101 only cause its cheaper...$14.99 and its only a bit smaller then the TFP201,with the case on, the screen is completely protected anyway so the TF101 ZAGG is probably the way to go!!! I love ZAGG products

Have u gotten the protector yet? I was thinking about doing this too. Is it too thick to fit in the dock?
I updated the original post with a coupon code(fbfans25) I found for 25% off. Hopefully when both the protector and the tablet come in I can post a short review.
i hate zaggs because they tend to stick to my fingers, i prefer bodyguardz. i get better grip with the zagg, but when playing games like fruit ninja, it gets really hard when my fingers are sticking the the protector. i have had about 4 zaggs, and 2 bodyguards. bodygurads are still my favorite
It didn't fit the screen correctly due to size differential? I'm considering getting the extreme guard caz of its price - do you know if it works with the dock?

Ghost Armor just applied
I just put GA on my prime tonight so its still drying, etc.
Initial thoughts;
Unlike Zagg, there is less of the "orange Peel" effect, I didn't mind that in fact i have Zagg on all my phones and like the grippiness. The GA has a very slight orange peel but i think that is just the nature of a vinyl or poly protector.
It's very shiny, make the back look like it was shellacked, again not bad but the texture on Aluminum is lost.
I will say i was a disappointed with the cut of the front and back pieces, I don't know if the material shrinks after cutting but the front piece is a good 1/8 to short on one side. The back is about 1/16 all around. It doesn't look bad but i know its there.
There are cutouts for everything, the speaker, headphone jack, light sensors and cameras. the kit did come with thin pieces for the beveled edge. that was nice, those pieces are sized almost perfectly.
Question
For those you got the Zagg full body kit, how does it fit with the dock?
well i have them installed right now and they are leaving marks on the screens where the dock connects. not really impressed. i will probably remove the shields.

That sucks! I have my full body shield waiting for the prime, which comes on Monday. Hopefully I can figure out some way to use it, even if it's the screen part only. I'd hate to have to send it back. Of course this all depends on whether or not I need to send the actual prime back due to dead pixels or some other issue.
Well i took the the screen one off but left the back on. You could cut the protector or notch out where the dock touches the screen.

Yea, I got scratches from putting it on stuff like grains of salt and other impurities on the table. It was really awful having to worry about the surface I put it on. Ive been so much more at east now that I got the carbon fiber skinomi skin. It looks nice and protects from scratch (and hides old ones)
Yeah the back scratches quite easily. Mine already has a few but it doesn't really bother me that much. If you are worried about it there are some clear and patterned skins available, take a look in the accessories forum.

should check out the Skinomi Skins, Get a complete set (includes the shield for screen, for the back of it, even the edges around it - Then for the top of the keyboard, bottom of it the edges all way around also the slot.) I bought it, arrived couple days after. Costs about same price as a zagg. Got it on Amazon. Have carbon fiber color looks, brushed steel ones (one i got, has nice feel to it also) and think even clear as well.

I've got one big nasty scratch that goes from the asus logo up to the camera area. It's pretty deep and i have no clue how it got there. At first i hated myself for scratching the back but now i don't care anymore. As long as the screen is fine it's ok i think.
Thankfully the screen is protected when you take it on the road with the dock.
Until I get a Skinomi, I'm going to keep my Prime on a microfibre cloth, the soft case I'm using to carry it around, or my bed.
I'm going to completely baby this thing.
I have some and i dont care. Its something i use so it will look "used" after a while. I'm fine with that.

Did you use the dry skin or the regular one?

Keep it in a case, check Amazon there are a lot of options.

No scratches here. Like anything else that I dont want scratched up I dont subject it to situations that will scratch it.
Do you use sandpaper to buff out your car?
I've got a scratch. Not too bad though. No idea where I got it from.

My scratches are pretty light but they're definitely noticable.
If you are worried about scratches, I would really recommend the Skinomi clear skin for the back of your Prime. Not only does it help protect from scratches, but it also makes it easy to wipe fingerprints off the back. Oh, and it looks great!
Wow that does look nice.

It does look damn good. How easy is it to apply?

can you link which one from amazon did you buy.
Yeah. The back scratches really easily. I personally don't care about scratches on the back though. I'm not starting at the back when I use the tablet. As long as the screen stays scratch free, I'm happy. That's why the transleeve I'd perfect for me.

To those who have the skinomi skin, did you get the "keyboard dock compatible" version or the regular one? I'm interested if the regular version (that doesn't have the bottom cutout) will still fit in the dock.

The regular one gets scratched up and peels if you dock it a few times. No reason to get the regular one if you are going to dock it.
I just got this superb case in Amazon. I love it....it's well made with good plastic material and grip. It adds a little bulk but....i still like it...it looks like a tank. Lol. The only thing that i hate with this case is ut comes with screen protector which is built in and when u place your phone in...it shows rainbowing distortions...it's more noticeable when the screen is off and intense direct light to the screen. Any how when...you turn on the screen everything looks fine and the touch responsiveness too aren't minimize.
Im planning to rip the builtin screen protector and get a hd film or glass i hope it will still fit when installed back in the case.
I'm confused. That's totally different from this unicorn beetle case

Same name, different brand?

Sorry I forgot to put "Pro". http://www.amazon.com/SUPCASE-Case-...F8&qid=1405809260&sr=1-10&keywords=lg+g3+case
I ordered the same case, ripped out the built in screen protector and am using it with a glass screen protector. It works very well and fits perfectly.

what glass screen protector did you used? I was concerned with the thickness
@hatyrei - on the back of your phone, there is a sticker (in the second picture) attached on your power and volume keys, not to be rude but that is supposed to be removed, unless you want it, those are just intended to be temporary indicators.
@Ronde90 - What glass screen protector are you using? I popped out the one there and bought a thin one (that sadly is a fingerprint magnet) for now but wanted to see if a glass one fit. How are the smudges? What brand/model/price?

Hi guys. I ordered this one:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00KLDJAO8?pc_redir=1404818582&robot_redir=1
It was pretty inexpensive and I didn't want to spend 40usd on one so I figured what the hell, I'll try it. It looked nice and was one of the only glass screen protectors that covered the entire screen, meaning that there were no jagged cut outs for camera or anything. Plus it is only 2mm thin and has rounded and bezeled edges. After using for a day or so I have to say it is fantastic. If feels great and you barely know its there since it is so thin and clear. It really is smudge resistant unlike many other glass screen protectors. It is also very easy to apply. It uses some kind of silicone based adhesive so it adheres better to the screen and is less prone to having bubbles be caught under it when applying it. The screen protector is also very easy to remove and reapply. I actually used it for a day, then took it off when I got the unicorn Beetle pro case. After two days of the scrappy Beetle screen protector, I ripped it off and reapplied the glass screen protector with no issues at all; I wrapped up the glass screen protector in wax paper for the mean time.
If you're on the fence, pull the trigger and I promise that you won't be disappointed, especially at the price on amazon now.

Man, the one of the parts of this glass protector is that it works with this case!!! I'm ordering now! I hated the one on there and the plastic ones have been so jagged and smudgy, I've tried a few. Thanks

Exactly what I did and am absolutely loving it. This case works wonders (assuming you rip out the ****ty built-in protector and replace it with glass) and isn't too bulky.
man you guys are tempting me really badly. i love the look of this case!
im liking it a lot, it reminds me of the urban armor cases. im going to order one
Tada..... , after ripping out the builtin plastic screen protector... I installed the new glass screen protector by iCarez. And I'm happy to tell u guys it fits very well. Just becareful when you put the screen protector be sured the front cam isn't hindered or covered.

I'm gonna order the blue one in a week or so.
I have the Spigen slim armor and like it a lot, but a man needs variety.

Cool, I only wish they have a cheap LG Quick View Case...that looks like the Original case from LG. The one in Amazon doesn't looks futuristic lol . Must be the silver circle inlet that gives it the edge.
