I'm not a fan but want to try another company. I tried Zagg a couple of years ago and it felt like rubber and had orange peel, pulled it off after a day.
In the perfect world I would get one that looks clear, feels like glass and helps with finger prints.
What is your favorite and why?
Thanks
I've tried Zagg and a bunch of others on my Evo 4G. The best one I had was this cheap 99 cent screen protector I got off amazon. Had it on for months with no scratches, and it looked and felt just like glass.

Warning iphone in video,Well its reviewing screen protectors.

Let us know if your screen protector covers all of the glass also.

July 18th full screen protection . Works great with defender otter . I could throw my last one on eBay
I have ghost armor screen protector on my 3vo and they are the best in my opinion. Every phone I owned I bought ghost armor for them and didn't worry about the screen at all. Lucky for me, there is a ghost armor kiosk here in grapevine Texas so I just go there an they apply it professionally. I suggest it if your in the area.

Decided to go with Phantom Skinz
Decided to go with Phantom Skinz since it comes with a camera protector and I've read good reviews on their products
http://phantomskinz.com/htcevo3d.aspx
I first got an Invisible Shield for my TP2, but there was too much orange peel effect and it was too "sticky" so I changed to Phantom Skinz. Phantom Skinz was much better.
On my Evo 3D I have a Clarivue protector now and it seems like it's scratched on the bottom side... I think I might change to Phantom.

Boxwave Crystal Clear.
The problem is, Boxwave has been really dragging their feet in getting ANY accessories specific to the 3D. They just finally got a rubberized case for it, but that's it. No screen protectors yet.
I ordered the BodyGuardz HD screen protector. These have anti-glare. Got it last night and it has a 'halo' effect. That is where the edges of the protector are not stuck onto the screen. It is not raised where it can easily become unpeeled. I wrote to BodyGuardz and they are sending me replacements that should work properly, which they claim are die-cut. A different manufacturing process that should work better.
Big plus for their customer support! I will post an update when I get them.
Zagg by far!

I have always used Zagg until I tried XO Skins. I was going to buy a Zagg for my GTablet, but someone posted the XO Skin for it on sale, so I gave it a try. It is somewhat like the Zagg InvisibleShield, but has that glass like feel with no orange or yellowish tint over time. It is a wet application, but when it cures it looks like nothing is even there. They also have a lifetime warranty just like Zagg, so if anything ever happens, you get a free replacement.

I got my screen protectors on Monday and I have to say it is horrible. You don't get fingerprints on it but it looks like it is dirty all they time. IMHO they suck!
I had a Casemate brand protector on my EVO 4G and loved it. Now I have a Clarivue brand on my EVO 3D and love it just as much.
No tacky feeling, no orange peel look, and no adhesive/water required.
Anybody try OEM screen protector that Sprint sells?
http://shop2.sprint.com/NASApp/onli...=Carry+&+Protect&selectedAccessoryID=ZCH5009V
Absolutely horrible, do not get. They scratch so, so easy....can't even use a credit card to smooth out the bubbles. Several people in the forum have said the same.

Do they sell any good aftermarket ones at Best Buy or something? I just got my phone today and I want to protect my screen immediately instead of waiting for shipping.
HI,
i saw many users says about scratches and tiny scratches in thair theirs Atrix screens. What is your opinion about zagg shield or any other screen protectors? phoes touch drop down with these protectors or any other problem?

For one, if you wanted to spend over $100 you could get a new glass screen and get it installed somehow. As far as getting protection then, I fully recommend it. Gorilla glass is NOT AT ALL as good as they say it is. My phone doesn't come into contact with razor blades and other crap it says it stands up against, but it does come in contact with minor pieces of lint in my pocket which somehow scratched this "impervious" screen...
As far as what type of protector...I didn't like Zagg or Ghost Armor or any of those stupid things. More expensive, more hassle than they're worth. I got I think a Splash Masque screen protector off Amazon or something. Something like that should do the trick. Not too hard to install w/o bubbles and I can't really tell it's there (feels normal, fits just fine).
zagg scratch guards are pathetic to use.
all rubbery feel with no smoothness unless you lube it
overpriced stuff that you cant through off because you overspent kind of feeling ..
get cheap clear screen protectors.. cost $2-5 over ebay for pack of 10 or something
I agree with the other two. Don't get a Zagg. I am currently using one and regret it. When I slide my finger to scroll or to play games, sad enough sometimes my fingers don't slide as smooth as opposed to some other screen protectors. Although I would say that it has saved my screen a couple of times. If your willing to spend the money on a Zagg and idk what your budget is like you could try out the otter box Commuter. Its isn't that bulky in my opinion and has a pretty good screen protector on it, with the bonus of protecting the phone itself.

I used a bodyguardz but didn't really like the feel of it and the proximity sensor wouldn't work right. Order some other cheap one off Amazon which feels a lot better but the proximity sensor still doesn't work right with it.
I can deal with the proximity sensor issue more than I could put up with a scratch in on my screen. Not sure if the zaggs interfere with the proximity sensor or not.

I use Zagg full body coverage, and I'm very happy with it. Yes, it feels rubbery.
But I'm looking the Splash Masque stuff, it's good to know a second opinion
I picked one up on Amazon called
Motorola Atrix 4G Crystal Clear Premium Screen Protector 2 Pack by REALOOK (AT&T)
I can't link since I'm a noobie poster. It's slightly spendy at 10.99 but has been great for me so far. Easy to put on with no bubbles, doesn't effect the usability of the screen either. By far the best screen protector I've used when compared to a few I've had on my iPhones.

Don't go the Zagg route.
First the invisible shields are a true PITA to install! (trust me it's a lot harder than a normal screen protector)
Second even if you get it installed correctly it feels rubbery weird.
Just go with the clear screen protector cheapies on eBay, and either a leather holster or a TPU clear case (depending if you pocket or not) and you'll be fine...
Im a huge fan of ghost armor. I like the look and feel of it. Yeah it sucks do pay $20 for the initial screen and service, but its $5 bucks after to replace it forever.

I went with Zagg myself, went in to the local store had them install it for 10 bucks. Just got it replaced, it does have a sort of grip to it on the screen that you have to get use to. Overall all I'm happy with the protection it's given my phone, usually after a couple months I'll start seeing scratches and stuff, I'm a little disappointed that I had to take it in to get the shield replaced today, but it was free save for the installation free so I'd say it was definitely a good investment for my device.
Just wanted to make a poll for case and what kind or no case at all. Do you want to eXPERIAnce it in all its glory or are you going to protect it with a tank-like shell or something in between. If possible, post your case/the one you're going to get here.
Currently I use a thin gel case and a polycarbonate back cover from Terrapin that I switch between depending on what I feel like carrying outside. But when I'm at home I use the phone naked, the feel of it without a case is simply fantastic. However I do use tempered glass on the front and some generic plastic on the back
Naked. The phone is too beautiful to hide.
Nillikin Tempered Glass on the front and normal plastic screen protector on the back.
That and some good phone insurance is enough for me :laugh:
Naked as well
Sent from my D6503 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I'm personally going naked but I'm buying a case for when I travel. I trust myself not to drop my phone since I'll have a lanyard but when I travel, there's no guarantee that something might happen so I'm getting a case for times like that.
I have purchased a Casemate barely there case and a Nillkin tempered glass screen protector. Delivery is this afternoon and I'll chuck them on this evening.
The phone is beautiful but it's a slippery bugger. I've never used a screen protector on any of my other phones but I'd like to keep this pristine for as long as I can despite a case taken some of its premium feel away.
I prefer naked myself when using a premium quality phone. I don't really see the point of putting plastic to cover up a phone like this.
I think the best of both worlds is to buy a leather pouch type case to put it in when your not using it and take it out when you are.
Had the same idea as many; naked all the way, until I dropped it.
Now it's gel case, chipped corners and a whole lot of crying in the fetal position.
I have the official SCR10 and it is so beautiful. It's like looking at a hot girl, way hotter when they wear bikini/underwear.
Naked with front and back screen protector.
With this pouch

Is it the Clear or the Black case?.
I have the Black personally and find it okay. Better than it naked but I'd much prefer no case in an ideal world.
It is the white one. I wanted the white phone but EE only had the black and I thought that the white case would make up for it. Sadly it doesn't!
It is a nice case with a snug fit, but very slippery. My daughter even advised me to remove the case before I went to the pub as it was too slippery!.
I've ordered a 'rubberised' one from Amazon that should be here soon - I'lll report back when I've tried it
Nuddddde
It's either go with a TPU transparent back cover or use a leather sleeve pouch cover to enjoy a little bit of freedom. If you're not using at all you will really regret it if something happens to it!!!
I use a nillkin tempered glass with the Aixuan ultrathin case from ebay. Has the magnetic port open and fits in the sony charging dock.
I ordered the white, changed it last minute from the black.
Let's hope there is no staining issues.

I'm sure the pros and cons were mentioned somewhere on this forum but couldn't find exactly what I'm looking for as there are hundreds of pages of comments. I'm undecided between Spigen glas.tr slim & iLoome screenmate 9H for the note 3 and would like some input on which would be the best bet. They both seem equivalent as far as what they offer but would like to know from those who actually have used them. I've looked at Amazon reviews and still couldn't make my mind up. I plan on using one of these with the Otterbox Commuter.
My main concern is that it be truly bubble free so no bubbles form months down the line and no adhesion issues. From Amazon reviews I've seen people mention that after a few months bubbles had formed. If anyone has used these for a few months, do you have any bubbles and what are your thoughts?
I've got the iloome and there are no bubbles. I've never used the other one but can recommend this one. It wasn't too hard to install. You kind of have one shot at it. I found a video on YouTube where the guy places the glass on top first then puts blue tape on one side. So its like a door. Then he lifts the glass up, peels the plastic and drops it straight onto the screen. That's the method I used and it worked out perfectly. Once you do that just start pushing from the middle out to get rid of all the air.

I've had my SPIGEN for about 6 months now with zero issues. I never has bubbles and nor do I have any now. It can withstand some abuse too. I dropped my phone on a gravel driveway, straight on the glass. Didn't move a hair.
Btw, using it in combination with an Otterbox commuter.
spigen user here for me it's worth it
Been using iloome glass for 7 month now. No scratch, no crack, no bubbles. Still clear and vibrant as I first got it. Totally recommend their screen protectors.
Do they extend up to the edge of the screen? Because there are some cases that overlaps a TINY portion of the screen like caseology

Maybe off topic, but their neo hybrid case is a complete crap. Outrageously expensive and poor to medium quality. Not necessarily a bad brand, just too expensive for the quality they offer. IMO spigen products are NOT worth the money.

My iloome didn't. Also, I don't know about Spigen, but my experience with iloome support has been amazing. Not sure how much I can say, but I am seriously impressed by how supportive they were when I contacted them numerous times.
In my opinion total junk. I grabbed one to install and it's beginning to annoy the crap out of me. Dust and lint just collects all around the fan edges like the adhesive is totally exposed. Since the bezel is black it's just a definite eye sore.
It's pretty thick as well. Lost a bit of screen sensitivity.
I had a bodyguardz tempered glass protector on my note 2 and really liked it. I went with the Verizon-sold tempered glass screen protector, and I'm pretty happy with it so far. I am concerned it might be a bit too thick though. Usually no problems but occasionally experience unresponsive parts of the screen, though it's temporary.
Yea having the non responsive issues with the body guardz.

I emailed Icarez and this is the very quick response I received from them. Very impressed will order from them again.
The rate of this issue happened is relatively low, compared with other brands, less than 30 percent. But the issue Tempered Glass has will be less than our other PET product.
Our R&D department continuously improves our products and makes all customers feel satisfied.
In order to analyze the issue that you encountered, could you kindly take 2 -3 pictures for us to check again?
Sorry for giving your any inconvenience, we will send the replacement for you soon.
Looking forward to serving you again.

I picked one of these up on eBay for $6.99. No gimmick here. I have had tempered glass on my last 2 phones, and for this price you can't beat the product. Applied perfectly, fit perfectly. Using a Tudia TPU case, and the edges of the case fit over it fine. Highly recommend, you won't be sorry. We will see how it performs, but is up to Zagg standards so far and fifth of the price.
The Skinomi one on Amazon (link) works great and has rounded edges. My only complain is that there is a 1mm gap on each side, but is not that noticable.
