Im a zagg fan. Been using it for my hd7 and now i777, It costs quite a bit but it fits my standard. The cheaper one still good but i hate the fact that its not glossy like zagg and i got goosebumps everytime i tried to txt (happens to me w/ dry surface) anyway. Zagg has been good for me w/ lifetime warranty.

I hate Zagg. Too sticky feel.
I use Rearth Ringbo..

No screen protector at all. No case either. Phone should be durable enough to last one year. By then I'll be buying a new phone anyways.
What's a screen protector?

Haha...thanks guys I used the sgp oleopholbic for a while...wasn't super impressed

I'm using GhostArmor. I used to use Zagg's InviShield, but now they started using very thick plastic or w/e, and it's too sticky.Ghost Armor's a 20 dollar original investment. They install it for you for 20, or you can buy it yourself for 15. You can get it replaced for life for a 5 dollar install fee, or free if you install yourself.
I been using SGP on all my devices.
I hate the orange peel resistance feel on the zagg.
I got the SGP oleopholbic and like them pretty well. Got 2 for $13 off amazon, but screwed up the first one installing it. Still not a bad price though. Hasn't scratched at all and feels and looks identical to the glass on the phone. Oils and fingerprints wipe off well too.
Screen protectors are for losers who cant afford a warranty...

damn.. then I'm a loser LOL
Accidental Warranty is just too damn expensive
Another vote for the SGP protectors. I use the Ultra Crystal on mine. Have to say the best protectors to date. I have used quite a few (Boxwave, Zagg, Javoedge, ebay, etc) on a variety of devices and these are by far the best.

I used a 99cent ebay one for a few days but found that it was much more resistant to the sliding of my fingers and held on to fingerprints more than the bare screen. Also, I got kind of scared that I was going to somehow screw up the oleophobic coating on the screen glass by using it.
Clear, Glossy from ebay, 2.99 shipped for x2!

I just got a 5 pack from Amazon. They were all garbage. I contacted the seller and he offered a 20% refund (after acknowledging a defect). **** that! I want all of my money back considering they are no good!

^And that's why you just pay the premium price of getting Rearth Ringbo or SGP for around $9-$15 for a pack of two.

Well I didn't really need them. My wife and I already have steinheils and hers is scratched. She decided she wanted to change hers more often, so I got her a 5 pack.

I got a pack of SGP Ultra Oleo for both mine and my sister's phones. I messed up one of the two (because of the misleading instructions :/) but they had no problem sending me replacements free of charge.
One of the reasons why I always buy SGP products
I got mine from Ebay. Pack of 5 former 3 bucks. Can't remember brand but it was a us seller. Almost perfect placement, just one tiny bubble on the upper left part, and the feel is pretty nice.
Anyone else have it? I just got once since I didn't like the bulkiness of my maximum protection otterbox and was wondering if it was worth the 3 dollars lol

Worth $30, no? Amazon or Google shopping should have for less.
I actually bought it and then promptly returned it at a sprint store cause I thought it was overpriced

Def worth it for $4! Sprint stores had it for $30. Great find!
Be careful taking it off though the top part of the phone is glues and I peeled a little bit off cause this case is so tight on the phone

got mine on ebay for $7 and I like it so far. Just a pin if I have to do a battery pull.

Would you guys consider the bodyglove slimmer than the Amzer cases? http://www.amazon.com/Amzer-Luxe-Ar..._1_2?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1334277058&sr=1-2
I bought two cases
one for $3 from amazon
http://www.amazon.com/White-Rubberi..._11?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1334610692&sr=1-11
and the other one for $10 from Radioshack
http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=11791815&filterName=Brand&filterValue=HTC
I liked the latter one and am currently using it.
Don't buy the Body Glove slim profile case
Worst case I have ever purchased. The outside material feels nice but it is a very cheep casting. The edges are not smooth. when you hold the phone to your ear the edge of the case hurts your face and ear. It doesn't cover the top and bottom front edge. these edges will end up scratched up and the rest of the phone will be in good shape.
P.S. If you are willing to pay for the shipping you can have mine for free. My zip code is 93036. That's how much I don't like it.

I like zagg but they're way over priced. consider the bestskinsever - they're cheaper and in my opinion, the same quality:

Lol that brand name sounds so generic to me. Have you tried it personally?
I bought my Zagg at best buy mobile when me and my wife got our phones this month. they had a promo to get 2 for $35. I immediately took advantage since i hate scratches and smudges on my screen. No complaints really. only thing is, you can definitely tell where the s pen has been when the screen is off. The grooves the s pen leaves are hardly bothersome, but could be annoying to some. The grooves don't seem to ever go away, but are less noticeable the more you use your s pen.

I think its a toss up. The Spigen SGP protectors are pretty nice and are cheaper. The Invisible Shield HD is the best zagg offering: imo the smudge proof one really makes the screen look bad.
Zagg are more prone to peeling in pockets. Heat above 90 and being in the sun will almost guarantee you'll need a replacement. Spigen covers less of the phones edges.
Sorry I didnt have a coupon

I have them on a acer, macbook air, nexus 7 and my note. They are awesome, cheap and the service is great.
Honestly you will be greatly disappointed if you plan on using your S-Pen at all, every time you use it the indentations will build up and the Zagg Shield will look really crappy. Get something like SGP Steinheil, or something like it they will hold up to S-Pen use and daily abuse.
I just ordered me a jgl protector thanks everyone for responding

We've had this phone out for about 4 months now and I was just wondering what screen protectors you guys are using, post a link of where you bought it and personal opinion about the protector and any other helpful information! I've been using this cheap protector for such a long time, now it's time to see what's really out there! :laugh::good:
Mine is built into my Otterbox case. I forget which model, I'll have to look for you, and I absolutely hate it. It's raised very slightly off my screen so I have to press down a with a little more effort, it hinders my typing speed. I'm planning on taking an exacto blade and taking out the screen protector and using one of the regular ones, but damn it I always get air bubbles

You have an otterbox defender. And I'm considering doing the same thing. I'm thinking of getting one of those "wet apply" screen protectors to avoid getting bubbles. I might just get a ghost armor next time I go to the mall.
I'm sure I'll get **** for this but I really do love the invisible shield.
I just wish they made the HD one for the DNA, my gf has it on her iPhone 5 and it's awesome.

I wanted a ZAGG invisible shield, as I had one for the HTC EVO V 4G and it was the 1st screen protector I used, it was great quality. I searched everywhere and could not find one for the DNA, only 1 store on Amazon had it and it got bad reviews. I decided to go with the Armor Military Grade one. Had it on for a couple days, so far feels just as great as the ZAGG.
Nothing beats Ghost Armor. They install it and no air bubbles. Plus lifetime warranty.

Do you have one on your DNA? If so, is it just the screen or a full body one?

Just put the zagg hd on mine. I've always done ghost armor but this seems just as nice. Not a big fan of applying myself because I'm picky but otherwise good. Just make sure you wait 3 days for all the blemishes and bubbles to clear before pocketing it for best results

Just ordered the Skinomi Teckskin...made to fit the DNA, its a wet application and you only get one for $12. Opposed to the 3 you get at VZW but those are cheap and don't fit as nice.

I use this screen protector on mine and I love it. This was my first screen protector where you need to apply wet and I haven't looked back since putting it on. It doesn't take away from the display and fits perfect and is easy to put on. I ordered mine off amazon and got it cheaper than 12$ at the time. I also got a lifetime warranty on it so if it gets too worn down I will just get a new one. Deffidently the best one I have found so far.

Word! I can't stand the feel of screen protectors. The feel of the glass in way better. I treat my phone like a baby, and sit in an office all day. I guess if I were out in the field I might put a protector on it. But this is the whole point of all this high-tech glass, to make them virtually impossible to break or scratch.

Glass is glass. It will still shatter with enough force (not that a screen protector would save it from that). But even still, small particles of sand and rock and such can still easily scratch the screen. Don't believe its scratch proof when its scratch resistant.

I ordered one over the weekend, should be here on Thursday. Over at AndroidCentral there is a user in the GN3 forum who did get one from ATT and she is pretty happy with it.
I got one from the att store. The store lady did a great job putting it on for me. I am very happy with it so far, very clear & smooth, the pen glides smoothly over it. Btw, they only charged me $35 for it.

Good price, it's $40 on Amazon, $45 from bodyguards.com.
Does it have rounded edges? If not it's more likely to chip and maybe lift.

The edges are rounded and follow the shape of the phone, not sure if that's what you meant.
I've had it for a week and carry it in my pocket without a case. No lifting problems yet. I guess time will tell as to how well it holds.

No, I mean if you laid it flat & looked at it from the side is the top edge curved so there is less grab when your finger or the edge of a case rub against it.

If you buy from Bodyguardz, you will get 20% off the next order and there are discount codes out there, I found one for 10% off. So I wound up paying around $30 for mine.
I don't think the edges are curved. If I run my finger across the edge i can feel it. But I do like the screen protector!!

using the bodyguard tempered glass. it doesn't have round edges but i love it. it makes the phone look premium. no lifting. would recomended but not for $45. since you can get same quality with rounded edges like bason or spigen. bodyguard also includes lifetimewarranty which is good and it can justified the high price.
I put my bodyguardz one on last night. I found that I needed to let it sit and sort of get itself adhered to the glass. Otherwise when I put my Diztronic case on it the screen protector kept lifting up on one corner. After about 10 minutes it was fine and hasn't been an issue again.
