Hi all,
I've had my x10a for more than a month now, running 2.1 global and everything seems great. However, there is one thing that kind of bothers me. With the stock screen protector installed, I kind of feel that i can't swipe on the screen smoothly, lots of friction going on and the responsiveness isn't as great. This especially annoys me when I play Fruit Ninja, comparing with my ipod touch first gen. There is a noticeable delay when I swipe across the screen on my x10.
I'm wondering, will the sensitivity increase by a bit? ( im not looking for iphone4 sensitivity here, just wondering if it would increase after I install an alternative protector )
Do you guys suggest that I remove the stock protector and install a third party screen protector?

Thanks for your input but I always keep my cellphone clean. and the whole point of this thread is asking whether using a different screen protector than the stock will help so that does not really answer my question.

do you have the uber thick one on your handset? that is the one I have and its pretty sensitive. I would think a thiner one would be more sensitive
What kind of screen protector comes stock, all I have ever got on any phone was the cheap shipping plastic which is suppose to be removed, although I do see dorks walking around with it...

I took the stock screen protectors off and it's the worst. I've never had a touch screen work so bad. The only reason I haven't installed another is because the phone is defective, and I have to wait on rogers to get the replacement.
IMO if you want to take the stock screen protectors off, put a high quality one on right after. Also, I've been using the phone with no screen protector for about 2 months and I haven't scratched the screen, which is pretty impressive.
Yeah, I've removed the thin plastic that came with it, but it seems there's something more by looking at it's edges. Tried to remove it but wasn't successful in doing so...

The X10 actually comes with a stock screen protector unlike other phones.
Haha no it's not the huge piece of tape you are talking about

awmilton, by worst, do you mean that the stock screen protector is worst?
Or the screen under it is the worst you've seen?
Can anyone tell me how's the screen's performance without protector compared to the screen with protector on it?
X10 actually comes with the worst capacitive screen I've ever seen! Even without the protector the responsiveness is poor and most of the times it's hard to unlock when receiving a call!

The screen under the stock screen protector is the worst. And I'm referring to touch sensitivity, the images displayed by the x10 are quite nice.
So to answer your question, the screen's performance, for me, was worse after removing the stock screen protector. I've heard rumors that there are actually 2 stock screen protectors shipped on the phone. I'm nervous to start picking at the edges again, but if it's anything like the potential "outer" screen protector it's there but hard to see and difficult to take off.
Does anyone know if there are actually two screen protectors applied by sony before shipping?
Wow...I didn't even know it came with a screen protector lol. Well I'm removing it because it collects too much smudge/

there's is already a "screen protector" pre-applied on the x10. it's another kind of screen protector which i forgotten the term for it..and inside the box there is also a cheapo screen protector..so if u had use the cheapo screen protector..u are having 2 screen protector on ur x10.
anyway, the "screen protector" can actually be taken off,required abit of skill though. i had heard others removing it and comment tat it is much much more responsive.
but in my opinion i would not have taken it off,it was supposed to give more protection for our phone..surely SE dont put it there for no reason..
All that bad reaction especially in games has nothing to do with the screen, it's all about performance! 3D games with the x10 are horrible and mostly unplayable, you gonna feel if you try an Samsung galaxy!
Sony set the maximum fps that could be reached to 32.. which is in my eyes not smooth..
So for games you need another phone...
hehe i take on the protector that come in the box...so i have two.
The sheap one is terrible so i have ordered a new one.
But i will leave the one from se on even if i put on the new one.
Mine is from the UK and I didn't see one on my phone or in the box apart from the one on the screen that you are meant to take off.
I find that the screen does not respond well if you have sweaty fingers or even when there a drop of water on it but other than that, it is fine for me.
I got a screen protector from Stealth Guard now and it is very easy to apply. Now it works even with sweaty fingers and rain on it. This protector may not be for everyone though as my mates have trouble using it.

Yes, I don't think UK phones have a screen protector on, unless it's really difficult to see and remove...
Can anyone post any photos of the one that comes with the phone?

Yeah it's almost invisible.
I have removed both protectors that were on the screen. The only negative point is that its more exposed to scratches, nothing that a new thinner protector wont cure the sensitivity is a little better I guess but I think SE's bloatware kinda screws up the phones performance anyhow... Bottom line is that the phones screen is sensitive enough but the software is too slow, although I havent tried the 2.2 custom rom yet to verify this
Edit: Nor have I tried to uninstall the most resource demanding apps like timescape etc.
Hi, I wanted to know which set of Screen Protectors is better,
http://www.clove.co.uk/case-mate-samsung-galaxy-sii-i9100-screen-protector-2-pack
or
http://www.clove.co.uk/screen-protector-10pcs-for-samsung-galaxy-s-ii-i9100
I only want to go with one of the options above and want to know which one in terms of quality is the best. The Case-mate screen protectors were purported to not fit exactly with the screen of the Galaxy S2, however, that was for the screen protectors that were included with a TPU case. As a stand-alone product, is the Case-mate a proper fitting? And what about the 10-pack Clove Screen protectors, are they fingerprint-resistant?
Please advice me. Thank you very much in advance.
I ordered Steinheil Ultra on amazon.

Sorry I can't vouch for something I've never used. I've used SGP, Power support and Martin Fields with success. I personally don't buy the cheaper bulk ones as I don't want them to detract from the screen quality.
You might check in the accessory section.
A number of posts in Accessory forum re screen protectors.
I would pick neither of those two .

Martin fields is the best ...

I was a big Brando fan in the past when I used Nokias, but the screen protector for my SGS disappointed me. Bad shape, bad cut outs, didn't stick well on the display. The I bought a SGP Oleophobic that's still on my phone without any damage, so I ordered one for my SGS2, too. Still waiting for it.
Doesn't the i9100 have gorilla glass on it? So it's a pity to cover it, and it's not needed, IMHO.
Also the screen protector lowers touch screen sensitivity.
Wouldn't say that, heard couple of users already having scratches on their screen due to sand or something in their pocket.
I would go for the 10pc. Case mate are getting bad reputations from everyone here. U cud try thr clove ones and tell us how u get on.

what about finger prints
I got something similar to that 10 pack. I paid AU$3.20 which is about 2 pounds for a 5 pack. Protects ok, but it is a fingerprint magnet and also tends to grab onto the oil from your hands. I end up having to clean it with a proper microfibre cloth in order to get the oil off. Normal cloths don't work.

Yeah its a finger print magnet but not as bad as the original glass :-( if applied properly is seems like as if it is the glass itself...benefit is that colours and everything on the screen seems more vibrant and bright!
Plus easy to apply and minimum bubbles if you are a bit careful...:-( nothing like the invisible shield crap which dulls the screen and develops yellowish/orangish tint after a time and feels like rubber :-(

I mean, finger prints as in grease. My current protector get the oil from my hands on the screen and it messes up the colours. You get a kinda rainbow effect if you dont clean it.
Rubbing alcohol ftw. I carry some on me in place of hand sanitizer. It works great for cleaning all crap off the screen and drys dang quick, also sanitizes... don't use too much, only a little is necessary

Oh, well that kills my idea of getting an Invisible Shield protector then.
I didn't see a thread about this in the accessories section here, so I figured it would be a good one since many people will be getting one, despite the Gorilla Glass supposedly being a good protector as-is.
In my experience, good screen protectors will accomplish one of two things, but never both:
1) Invisibility - you don't even notice it is there, and does not mar your screen quality whatsoever (a big perk when your new phone's biggest feature may be the screen)
2) Glare-resistant - you sacrifice some of your screen's brightness and jump-off-the-phone clarity and colors, yet you do get much less glare, improved visibility outside in the sun, and it tends to have a smoother feel when swiping across the screen.
The purpose in this thread was to allow people to share recommendations for screen protectors on both fronts. I, personally, want one that won't hinder my phone's screen quality (although my OG EVO has a glare-resistant one on it right now). Any recommendations on brand, type, deals, etc?
Also, I've noticed that many of them won't be available until June or so, which is frustrating since I want to have a protector on mine as I walk out of the store next Friday. Ideas? Do I just buy the cheapest thing possible until a great one is available? Risk going without one for a couple weeks?
Share your thoughts and plans here! One week to go!
XO Skins is already shipping them. They posted a few videos today reviewing the phone on their youtube channel. You can get one here.
http://xoskins.com/cell-phone-skin-protectors/htc-skin-protectors/htc-evo-lte-4g-full-body-protector
I have been using them for a while on my Nexus. I am considering switching to the evo lte or the galaxy III. I am waiting for that to compare, but the review in my signature has a tun of comments feedback etc. It's the best one on the market imo. I would get the full body on these since the back of the evo lte looks pretty weak. These don't have orange peel like others and have a lifetime warranty. The best coupon floating around is sprintxo

i have had the same skinomi one on my epic for 2 years now..they are pretty thick and protect well as well have having a lifetime replacement (just pay shipping). however i may not spend the $7 to get one this time around because while it protects really well, you can definitely tell it's there. the glare isn't bad on it either. being 2 years old i am unsure if they changed the formula for making them though.
I always buy phantom skinz. They are great. You can't tell visibly that they are there. Not anti glare and they're not real rubbery feeling like Zagg and you get 2 for 1.
Usually have a coupon code for 15-30% off. Which usually makes them 2 for $7-9. Can't beat that.
*Edit: Coupon code is ComeBack30 for 30% off making the screen protector 6.96 for 2
On my original evoi had one of Sprints matte screen protectors which weren't too bad, but prefer a screen protector that does not sacrifice screen quality, I had used ZAGG on my HTC touch pro and is currently on my Prime.The feel of the screen is a bit rubbery at first, but once it breaks in it feels very comfortable and smooth. It does not sacrifice any quality and they offer protection for the back of the phone as well. Unfortunately, ZAGG did not have anything listed yet for the Evo LTE , I did email them and got this response:

I second this. Steinheil is the GOAT. Crystal Clear, doesn't diminish the screen, very durable.
They will be making them soon enough. I need to find something temp for the time being. Because I am a danger around things which aren't protected.
Can't stand the ones with liquid though. They always freak me out.

Eh, they 'll still make them. A lot of assessory places say they have no plans but they are waiting to see the demands.
I'd be more concerned if a case maker said that, since it takes more resources. Screen protectors is a matter of cutting the right size.

I know they will still make them but might not as soon as we'd like...
Case makers say the same thing btw, its a straight company line unless they are already into production with the item b/c only then will they be able to 100% confirm they are going to have one.
I know the overall outside dimensions b/w the EVOLTE are different than the OneX slightly but what about the screen?.....should OneX screen protectors not work on the EVOLTE? or is the dimension of the actual screen different too slightly...The MAIN difference is the OneX case on the inside on the screen has round edges where as the EVOLTE is squared off in the corners...
might be worth something trying there for those that want to...
I'm waiting for the Steinheil protectors as well. They're the best. Period.

Gorilla glass won't stop dust or dirt from scratching it. This has been beaten to death in some other topics but the gist is that the key scratch tests etc don't scratch it because brass is softer than gorilla glass. Dirt and some dust is much harder so it will scratch. It's stronger than most glass, but not scratch proof. That's why people still use protectors, let them take the beating, if they get damaged, peel it off and slap another on there.
I got an extra screen protector left over from clarivue for the original evo. Will have to see how well it fits the evo lte, even if it doesn't cover up the screen entirely.

question:
What do they do differently then any other screen protector manufacture? Ive only used the cheap ones and Zagg. i now go unprotected. Can you tell me why are they so likable?
****not trolling im just wondering.****
The crystal clear screen protectors are the best I've seen and used. I almost destroyed the screen on my charge with a set of keys in my pocket but the protector did It's job and saved it. I was helping a friend load some boxes and smashed the keys into the screen. They apply really nice, feel like glass, and are absolutely clear. At $14 for a 2 pack is cheap insurance for your phone. Just my opinion.

Thought I'd post links to the Realook (I don't have one yet, but it's useful to post links to discussed accessories).
This link will lead to both Amazon and Ebay sites.
I've had the realook ones and they don't compare to the quality or protection offered by Steinheil. I've run these on every phone I've had and my Ipod touch. Too bad they are not supporting the Rezound. They have them for the Thunderbolt, Incredible, and One X.

Just to put my thoughts out there - I fully disagree. I think the reallook ones are very comparable to SGP and come in at a very close second.
Thats how i feel as well. I had steinhils on all my devices for years...and i feel as tho the realook is just as good if not better. My 2 cents.

I've always had a preference for Steinheil too... They are just better... But I guess to the normal person they are just as good as anything else, a screen protector is a screen protector... Even though they are much better.
Most protectors I've used are really smooth and nice for a week or so, then get grippy feeling, even after cleaning them. Probably has something to do with the hardness... But the steins feel better for longer. Just something I've noticed...
Edit: oh not to mention they don't scratch as easy...
My realooks have been super scratched for the past 6 months of usage, wish I had something that is more scratch-proof
Ordered the Realook protectors. Guess I will find out soon enough. Always used zagg,wanted to try these out.

Okay, guys, I don't know how it's not mentioned even though we know they are the best screenguards out there.
Here are some I found over eBay :
http://www.ebay.in/sch/ScratchGuard...3/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=moto+e+tempered+glass
Surely, they are not Spigen's or Orzly's or of some known brand, in fact I confirmed and got a reply that it's made in China and is generic but equally strong and the cuts are nicely made.
Do you think buying it is worth it?
I mean, they're not really expensive at all.
Has anybody bought any of them ?
Btw, when I searched, I found out that Orzly has also made a tempered glass screen protector for our phone but, obviously, it ain't available in India.
i wanted to buy a glass screen protector. can any one suggest one?? there are tons on flipkart which one i should get?? any brand to look for??
Ordered one from ebay. From what I extensively searched, it seems Corning glass is fracture resistant, not necessarily scratch-resistant. There are conflicting views on either sides. I just thought better safe than sorry. Also, I have had a pretty bad expierence with screen-guards. Scratch easily. And the tempered glass is not so costly either, although it is unbranded. Got this one.
In the ebay list, I chose this one cuz its got the maximum sales. Regards to other ones, they either seem confused if its meant for iphone or moto e, or the thickness they mention is inconsistent(0.3/0.26/0.4) or have less sales. I had no other criteria for selection since its unbranded. Hoping for the best.

I already bought a matte one before these came out.
And, it has already started showing scratches. I don't think it's gonna last over a month.
Anyway, do tell us about your experience and if you don't mind, share a few photos too, of how it looks, how much thick it gets, etc.

Got it finally.. Looks good and feels good. After a few attempts got it on properly, although a small portion of upper left screen is not covered. Let's see how long it lasts..

Would it be possible for you to post a few pictures, and maybe answer these questions :
1. Is it actually oleophobic? (prevents oil and fingerprints)
2. Did bubbles come up while putting it on?
3. Has it affected the resolution?
4. Does touch feel the same? Or worsens?

1. Definitely not oleophobic. In fact, seems to be a fingerprint magnet.2. Yes, bubbles did come up, but since one can take it off, I managed to try it on about 3 times. 3. Not affected touch at all, nor the screen quality. 4. I would post a few pics, but it wont show a thing. its not at all visible.
