The ZAGG Invisible Shield seems to be very durable. I have a friend that has had one on his iphone for over a year and it hasn't started to peel. He puts it in his pocket, no carry case, so it's had quite a hard life. It doesn't seem to adversely affect the touchscreen operation either.
EDIT: Not sure if it is available in the UK.
sounds like what i need, hopefully it is available in the UK and for a good price!!
Cheers
I just picked up :

This is the same material as the ZAGG brand as it hasn't been patented, and there are a few companies that sell it without the markup.
The seller is an actual website that sells at retail prices, but their eBay pricing is always heavily discounted, I've used their protectors before and ZAGG's, and I can confirm they are the same in quality.
The slight difference I found is Clear Protector brand is easier on the fingers when sliding, I find the ZAGG brand is hard to slide your finger across the screen against its material.
EDIT: ignore the signature, as I haven't updated yet. =P
thanks for that, ill keep it in mind! i had the full body type like that on my nokia but it didnt feel light. Will deffo keep it in mind tho!!
Thanks

I can't vouch for the Clear Protector brand, but I will say that there is more friction with the ZAGG screen protector than without. It didn't take long to get used to and the protection is certainly worth it.
Lokosis, can you remove and reapply the Clear Protector like you can with the ZAGG?
A big +1 for the Clear Protector film.
I've had mine on since day #1 (I got my TP2 on release day last September). Not a scratch or defect yet... and I carry my phone EVERYWHERE.
The only down-side I see is that it has a bit of a rubbery feel to it when dirty. A wipe down with a microfiber cloth helps. A shop of Plexus, or Pledge once a month keeps things slippery.
IMO, if applied correctly, the screen protector will last the usage life of the device (3 yrs +/-), no problem.
ok i really need to sit down tonight and have a look at them all as i need one asap!
i think i may have fitted my mf one too close to the edge and thats why it got pulled off and dust goot in ect... but my screen is still like new under it! and i can get a twin pack for £12 or £13 posted and itll be here within a few days which would be good, but ill see how they compare to others ect...

ZAGG i been with zaggg for about a year and a half now and never been let down, 4 buck for replacement life time warranty. its was made to last i had a full body protection on my TP2 ever since i bought it from day one which was last year October, had to send my device back to tmobile because the touch screen died on me other then that i would have been with the same protection till this day. all i had to do was call zagg asked for a replacement, you dont even have to call it for a replacement you can do it right off the website now. But overall the case increase your grip, keep your phone from sliding across desktop(what a life saver) i never had a problem with sliding my finger across the screen, people don't notice it. idk how but they just don't notice it
So my 2 day old Note has a hairline scratch that is only visible with the screen off in the right light. I am told that if I get this screen protector it will more than likely hide the scratch, and obviously prevent new ones. I'm curious to hear if others have this and like it. I have never used a screen protector because I don't like the way they look and feel, but apparently this screen is very easily scratched, despite me only keeping it in my pocket by itself.

I had an invisibleShield on my Atrix and loved it. I also bought the ivs for the note and am sending it back tomorrow because it is for the European modle which means it has a button hole on the middle front. They don't make one for the ATT note yet but as soon as they do I am getting it.

Yes the Zagg or any Zagg type screen protector will make any light scratch invisible. I was the guy who posted about a scratch . Anyways my Zagg came in like a day after it happened, I put it on and I cant even see the scratch.
Does Zagg still have the orange peel look?

Yes it does and it kinda sucks, I always buy BSE skins (Best skins ever) but they only have the international version atm.
Have the Zagg Dry Invisi-Shield installed on mine, front and back protection, and both he dry and wet install shields leave little indented marks when you use the s-pen because they are soft. At first its barely noticeable but the little grooves build up over time. Just something to consider, depending on how much you use the s-pen.

I wish they would have just left the s pen off because I'm never going to use it. It should just be a smartphone, not even tablets come with stylist pens now days. Oh well, I'm still really enjoying the phone. Can't wait for ICS to come out and fix the stutter/non responsive bugs when flipping through home pages.
Check ebay. It's cheaper and free shipping.

I use my s-pen. A lot. Glad they don't base their product manufacturing decisions around your personal preferences. Indespensibe for fine- photo editing, PDF annotation, mobile signatures and the list goes on and on.
Damn that stylus kills the device! Oh well, not everyone listens to Steve.

I went to Best Buy and and exchanged the phone for a new one because of the scratch and bought the InvisibleShield. I'm not crazy about the Orange Peel look, but it's better than the scratched screen look.
i have the shield on mine as well........after having the rocket for 5 months and not having a case nor a screen protector i had to get one for the notes awsome screen.
and the S-pen is Great. i use it for texting and everything. the write to text is pretty accurate and fast when you get used to it. my only gripe is that with the Zagg shield the pen does not flow quite as smoothly so it hickups here and there when not applying just the right amount of pressure.
I actually wish that it had the physical home button like the Intl version. I saw some neat tips and tricks -such as disable touch screen -which would be great for movies, etc -especially with children...
I went with the Rearth Ringbo screen cover. Cant comment since I ordered it this AM.

I was 1 click away from ordering that. I ended up with the SGP because I didn't know which was better. I haven't done screen protector shopping in a while. Is the Rearth better than
SGP?
I just learned after buying the Invisible Shield that even though they offer a lifetime "free" replacement, it costs $4 for them to ship it to you and you have to pay to ship it back. In what world is that free?
I bought the invisible sheild today from bestbuy. Not really liking how it feels "tacky" compared to the slick glass. Something to keep in mind when considering purchasing it.

I bought the Zagg tonight, installed it and thought I had it on perfect! Was all proud of myself. Went to go turn the screen on and all these rainbow colors and weird looking dots all over between the screen and shield! I was so pissed. I think I sprayed too much of their liquid on. I should have just paid Best Buy to install. What a waste of money. $22 down the drain.
bought some screen protectors on Amazon to get here Thursday and then 6x off of eBay. I don't care if I have to replace one a month. I'm not spending $20 anymore on one screen protector.
Zagg has also started making an HD version of there screen protector, this one does not give you the orange peel look like the old ones. Right now i think it is only for the Iphone but give it some time they will probity start making them all like that.
Guys, I need help. I've bought a used RAZR HD a month and a half ago and it was in a very good condition. 9/10, maybe even 9.5. had just a scratch or two on the rim around the screen.
Since then, I've dropped it onto concrete two times and on both occasions in went corner down, so now I've got two completely wrecked corners. Nothing else is broken, it's all fine, the kevlar back is pretty much mint, the screen is great, it's just that rim that is now completely ruining the look of the phone...
Did anyone face the same problem and what have you done to fix it, if anything? The only idea I've got now is to sand down the rim to be at level with the screen, that would possibly make it look good again. Naturally, I'd be very careful as to not scratch the screen...
Can that rim be replaced anyway? I'll check out the disassembly guides and videos now to see whether it goes together with the screen...
I'm so annoyed right now. The second drop happened minutes ago... God flipping damn it. The problem is that Moto's have not been widely used here in Serbia for years now and that makes the availability of any equipment for them more than scarce. I'll be ordering a universal case right now (the one in which you slide the phone in and out) but I'd still love to make it look good again.
Flipping damn it
*edit*
According to this video... It's glued very very strongly together - http://youtu.be/LfAyttf6fWU
That's just great... And I can't even find a silicon case, be it no name or branded, to cover it all up. Will see if I can order anything from across the border.

i recommend an otterbox defender, got mine off amazon for 20 dollars and because they are guaranteed for life i have gotten two replacements for free. i have dropped my phone off a 12 foot ladder and have thrown it against walls( dont ask) and have zero scratches or dents. phone is in mint condition.

This would be it, right - http://youtu.be/Eg5qkRCm5pU ? But, doesn't it turn what is already a quite a big phone into a massive one? Because it certainly seems so I'm guessing this cannot fit a pocket of any sort of pants? But it does seem to offer outstanding protection. Alas, at what a price, both functionality and monetary-wise (the price is $40+ on amazon?)... But even if I wanted to spend that amount of money on a case, I'd have to keep my fingers crossed for probably no less than a month, hoping that it will eventually arrive, intact and without many additional fees. Third world problems...
Thanks for the advice, anyway! I might pick up the Commuter edition, it seems more reasonable for my needs

yes thats it, im in construction so i went with defender, my sister has commuter and it seems to offer a level of protection for most peoples uses (2-3 foot drops) and yes it does make the phone bigger so if thats a concern i would go with commuter, also the screen protector on the defender is part of the case but with the commuter its a stick on screen protector if that matters to you( i can never get those to go on without wrinkles) i beleieve the 40 $ ones are the black ones bc otterbox stopped making them i bought a black one for 20$ 6 months ago

Thanks for the information once again, mate! And, yeah, I just figured out that there are different versions. The one with pink details is the cheapest...damn
We'll see how I can get my hands on one. The shipping fees are going to be higher than the price of the case itself, ffs :/

Here's what I have (well, it's the same style but mine is a Body Glove that I purchased from Walmart but I cannot find it anywhere online):
http://www.amazon.com/Diztronic-Mat...9233999&sr=8-2&keywords=motorola+razr+hd+case
It's worked well so far. I've dropped my phone a couple of times, once face down and maybe two times on the side and/or corner, and my phone has been protected.
Overall, it adds a little bulk, but nothing like an Otterbox. I can put this into my pants pockets without much issue.

This is very much like the generic cases available here for most smartphones, priced at $2-3. Would you say that your case has a premium quality and is worth the higher price? Because I've found those generic ones available together with free shipping on eBay. But I know how lousy their protection and appearance are, so I'm still weighing my options.

Again, that is not exactly the case I have, but I purchased it at a Walmat department store for about $14.
It feels rubbery and it's flexible when the phone is not in it. Mine says "Body Glove" on it but I cannot find it on their site (they don't list any cases for the Droid RAZR HD).
Overall, I wouldn't say it's premium quality (not like I had with my Otterbox cases for my OG RAZR MAXX that I used to own), but it does seem to do the job for me. As I said, I've dropped the phone face down with the case I have (which is similar to the one I linked to on Amazon) and the phone came out unscathed. It was about a three foot drop onto the concrete floor in my garage if that gives any indication.

Another vote to the Diztronic - it would cover that damage and will prevent the same type of damage when you drop it again. Mine has lived in one of these since I got it and gets tossed around all the time. Has landed face first a few times and has not skipped a beat thanks to the raised lip.

Thanks, mate. The Diztronic looks wonderful compared to the chinese "s-line" thing I bought because of free shipping... It's just crap and it doesn't even cover the edges properly - the left one is fine, but it cannot stay on top of the right one. Check the picture for illustration. I'll be sure to get the Diztronic one in the future. Can you just tell me whether its rubberised or is it just the matte finish making it look as if though it were? Because it looks like it is and that it's insanely sticky and that I wouldn't be able to stick it in my pocket, but I guess it's just the matte finish
Hi all, been using OP phones for a while now, and since the 3, it has been really impossible to find a good glass screen protector worth the money, as we all well know.
I have then gave up on them and have decided to try a film type, since I take good care of my phones and really never drop them.
So I usually don't take the time to write about that, but really I feel like I should say good things about this one brand (first time using those "wet application" protectors, so the same may apply to other brands, I'm just happy with this one on first try).
First, they do free shipping anywhere in the world. The protector and small accessories come in a simple hard back enveloppe. I think that's good for us, as well as smart.
Second, and linked to the first point, they have a good customer support. My problem was that when entering my shipping address, I could not select Hong Kong as a "country". So I emailed them asking about this, and within a few hours, I had a nice reply and the customer rep had activated HK in the drop down.
Then the product itself.
It is not too hard to apply, really. Follow the steps and you'll be good. They recommand to wait 8-12 hours to turn on the phone again, but I need my phone as an alarm clock, so I waited like 2 hours and all is well. All in all, doing it in the evening, it took maybe 30 mins to install (with waiting to dry up a bit).
The film sticks well, even on the edges of the screen, and it is hard to tell it is there (well, under low angle light, you can notice a very slight "orange peel" effect). On the other hand, touch feeling is really as if there was nothing there.
I tested with the slim official OnePlus cases, as well as the official carbon bumper case, and no problem to notice at all. I also have a Spigen case, but I don't dare trying it, it looks like it "crawls" up a bit much on the edges of the screen. I expect that any slim cases, or those that are not too tight on the edges won't be a problem.
I also ordered one for my wife's S8+, and have installed it as well. Will post pictures this evening when she gets home and I can use her phone for pictures, so you can see how it looks. (for her, I took a full body coverage, and I'll post some pictures of that, so you can see how it goes, and how it looks on different phones).
So all in all, I liked the company attitude, the price (8 GBP for my screen only coverage for OP5, and 12 GBP for S8+), free delivery and of course the product itself.
Let me know if you have questions, I know I personnaly am always looking for info before trying those protectors. God knows I've wasted enough money on many useless ones :crying:
Edit :
have added pics so you can see how it looks (the slight orange peel effect), and also how it goes really fully to the edges
Woow it looks really good!

It does, yes.
I've been using that for a few days now and it's really hard to tell it's there.
Also something I noticed with usage is that it's very fingerprint resistant. Maybe better than the naked screen in that respect.
Can't really comment on long term durability but at least it's very good at the moment.
Having a discount of 25% today i took the risk and ordered it
Oh cool, hope it'll work for you as well as it does for me

Can't say about that one!
I ordered it long time ago. Haven't tried it yet. I have nilkin glass now. Since I want to protect whole screen and I have a otterbox case... I will apply film soon. Fingers crossed
Ordered one today, got tired of every single tempered glass protector that has adhesive only on the sides and lets the dust go under the screen.. Let's hope this is as good as advertised!
Yeah, let us know if it works well for you guys too
Ordered! Waiting on shipment
Mine arrived, pretty simple package but it made its way to Hamburg Germany without problems :laugh:
Will apply it when in clean surrounding ;p
I ordered 2 devices, one with dual screen, one without (I think the white is gorgeous and no white dual screen, so didn't bother). However, the dual screen one will be more for home use. So when the phones are "out and about" what case options are there? I have googled, Amazon, eBay, Walmart, but really only found clear rubber, which I already know from experience will discolor over time. How long til we get viable options for cases with such a new phone? I for sure need cases since these glass phones like to get up off surfaces. What's everyone else looking at?

With these curved screens, those built in protectors usually make the screen unresponsive and "clicky"

That is true. I'll keep that one in mind. Ebay is full of ones from China. Um not in this climate right now lol. But before I can even start using the phones, I gotta have some sort of protection lol
So I ordered this case so I would have something to put on it until my dual screen case arrives. It was the only one that could be here this weekend. The screen protectors I ordered are a month out on Amazon. On ATT you get the phone, then register on LG site to get the dual screen case, 3-6 weeks delivery, sadness.

I ordered that as well, because it will arrive soonest, but I'd rather clear. Why put a black case on a white phone. I usually get several cases anyway.

I ordered my clear TPU off ebay for that very reason of long ship times. Did find a wet install protector that will be here Sunday tho. That's what I like anyway, not glass.

Agreed, that's why I'm going clear and it'll be here Sunday. But I did find another on Amazon (July delivery so not ordering now) that is that glitter movement one. Clear with silver glittery hearts. Think when this country gets back to normal I'll order that, I just need protection before I start using it. That thing is heavy! Coming from a G8, it's quite a bit heavier, and larger than I'm used to ATM lol not risking it. Have had in my possession 2 days and haven't even turned it on. Lol

Nice! I wrote IQ Shield to see if/when they have plans to release protectors for this device. "at this time we don't know if we'll release protection for this device" well boo on you IQ Shield. I've had them on every device since they went full curved screens (back to what, the V20? Altho that curve wasn't as severe as these latest devices, still a flat protector refused to stick) and actually dropped my G8 down a set of three concrete steps. Protector took every ding, and screen still flawless. Slap another one on and done. Glass protector would have shattered first step and screen on second and third lol

Tired out the new case. The side leave a gap between the glass protector. I might stick to the TPU case until something better.
Also. There's no 4 corners to protect the camera.

Ah very good to know. Thanks for the insight. Still waiting on my clear TPU case, seems to be stuck in IN for now lol.

I thought about waiting for the case, but just couldn't do it. I have never used a phone without a case, so it does feel kind of wierd, but I'll manage till Sunday, then the longer wait starts on the dual screen case. Why couldn't ATT bundle it with the phone like T-Mob? Ugh
I used to house my LG phones in cases made by TetDed. They are really just thin, molded shells covered with soft and grippy dead cow skin (real leather). Sadly, they didn't make a case for the G8 (either of them). I have emailed trying to convince them to make some for the V60.

I used to use encased hard shells on my phone, slide in and clip to hold together. Then when I got the G8, they didn't make one for it, and this V60 is so new that there aren't alot of options yet. Not even an Otterbox defender!

Got the case today, and must say I like it. Fits snug and has a good feel. I was expecting far less!
