I was just browsing over at DayDeal's site, when I found this:
http://www.daydeal.com/product.php?productid=44554&cat=4987
It's out-of-stock, but has anyone ordered and tried one of these? I'm kind of digging the idea that installation looks pretty idiot-proof (compared to the sticky-back or water-applied solutions).
I'm just wondering if it would completely neuter the sensitivity of the screen.

EDIT: Never mind. Their pictures make it look like something that clips over the screen, but it's actually a mirror film that goes over the screen, just like every other screen protector.
the mirrored protectors look nice, but are very annoying when trying to see your phone (texting) out side especially when its sunny

I ordered one from Daydeal.com Yesterday and waiting on it to arrive.
This would make my Third one Yes i know i said 3 but the first 2 had problems and were ordered from a different seller.
anyone out here found any of these that are good and screen and touch buttons work if so where did you find it at..
i'm still waiting on my one from daydeal
EDIT: Pics of the screen protector taken from my wife HERO
Tried to get a pic of where i had to cut out the opening for the camera (front)
Hey how did that screen protectore from Daydeal.com Work out? does it make it harder to touch the screen? are the capacative buttons functional with the protector on? is there a cut out for the front facing camera?
thanks for the info!!
I'm thinking about getting a 4 way privacy screen for a ipad and cutting it down to size since I can't find one cut for the evo.
I have a 2 way now but it doesn't work well in landscape and I had to cut the bottom of it to get the buttons to work. I also think it is to thick. It makes it difficult to do multi-touch.
I'm hoping since the ipad is nothing but touch that the products available for it might me a little thinner and more capable of multi-touch. Wish 3M would get in gear and realize that more people than just BB users want to protect their privacy. Not that a 4.3" screen is a beacon for prying eyes or anything....
The screen (privacy) protector from daydeal.com works great the buttons work perfectly the only issue is the front camera is not cut out but you can fix that with a hobby knife with no problem I'll post a pic soon of the screen protector on my phone with the camera cut out.

i had the clarivue and it worked great... it did have some spots where the finish came off.. around the edges but it wasnt bad.
i had to change the screen of my phone so i lost it but now that i dont have a screen protector makes me like how good the screen looks. not bad like before.
i ordered a clear protector now... dont think i will go back to the anti-figerprint or privacy.
Well I guess I can post up some pics... I bought a Privacy screen that came out to $7.99 including shipping from EBAY. It came with 3 screens, all privacy.... The first one was kind of peeling from the top but did the job... take a look see....the screen is on regular backlight in all pics exept 1
that cut on the top looks crappy.. but the peeling happend to be too from clarivue. it was also around some edges. i liked the screen but i now have a crystal clear... i have tried all but the mirror type protectors... and i will stay with clear...
when i had my screen changed not to long ago i noticed the huge differance in the way the screen look in a privacy vs clear... you cant beat the clear... at least for me.
i gave it some thought... if someone can see my screen well enough to read the screen then they are too damn close to me anyways lol

Same one I got from eBay. The cut on top doesn't obstruct the camera or sensors and the guard goes from top to bottom with no gaps. Buttons and touch are still very sensitive.
If not for that peeling corner (got it here too) this would be a complete WINNAR!
I wouldn';t be able to stand my screen looking that dim and crappy.
What are you guys like porn addicts or something? I know none of you are important enough to have secrets that actually need hidden when you are walking around on your phones.

Yes. We are all very important porn addicts trying to hide our shameful screens. If you're not a fan of privacy screens, that's fine - don't troll a thread that others might find helpful.
You don't have to be a porn fan to want a little privacy the protector are useful if you don't want people seeing your password when your typing or drawing it.. Or your text message.. Privacy screens have more uses than just for porn if you want. I have a launch day evo and my screen still looks awesome with the privacy screen on the mirror protector is not useful it doesn't block anything unless you turn down the display brightness and that's no good cause then you can't see your own screen...
Sent from the evo collective via cybernetic implants
well, if your reading an important email, or checking your bank account. a lot of uses for these...
So if you guys are wondering what a privacy screen protector is, its basically one in which restricts viewing of the phone screen, so basically if anyone is standing or sitting next to you whilst you were on your phone, and they had a look at your screen, then all they would see is a black screen
So the one I ordered really cheap was this
It arrived pretty promptly and applied it the standard method, clean screen, use a credit card and slowly apply pressure as your placing the screen protector to ensure no air bubbles
What do I think? Well the protector is relatively thick and scratch resistant which means I have extra comfort in knowing its safer from drops etc. The screen protector is a fairly good size, easily covers the screen. It does its job perfectly, from side views, the screen can't be seen whatsoever
Disadvantages - I'm used to having my phone lying on the desk next to me, and so if I want to quickly see any notifications, I actually have to pick up the phone and bring it face to face with me, instead of usually just glancing across at it
2) It does reduce brightness so you need to bump it up a little, however the screen protector is described as having 99% UV protection and i've tested it outdoors and I could see the screen okay
Overall I'd recommend this, its cheap, you can't go wrong with the thick protection and the privacy factor is another bonus!
Have you tried with polaroid glasses on too?

Screen Quality
Usually thick screen protectors (if not all) decrease screen sharpness and some other things (which is why I am naked), wonder how much it distorts or messes with the screen.

The creator say its 0.03cm which is like 3 sheet of paper. The creator also mention he is gonna upload photo showing its distortion.
That looks awesome!
http://https://youtu.be/icCu9VpkDf4How many have light leaking through a gap between the metal frame and panel?
Look at my picture posted below..ty
At first I thought that I might have a similar problem but of you're using a screen protector that extends to the edges of the glass but does not sit flush with the bezel then the protector almost acts like a fiber optic cable in the sense that the white light from the icons on the screen shine through the edges of the protector and reflect off the bezel. I was using an IQ shield protector and this effect was really noticeable. I had some other free protectors and the IQ shield was peeling away so I decided to switch it out and since then I haven't seen the issue at all. As for the kid in the video he seems like a *****, I honestly couldn't see the bleed through effect he was trying to portray in his video.

I see nothing in that video, and I see nothing on mine, it seems kinda silly to me.

I just posted a photo of mine. this isn't silly imo. The kid is showing his when the room is lit up. If it was low light or dark you'd see it better. Check out my pic and tell me what you think? Xda tweeted this kids video, which then lead me to checking mine. Mine doesn't have an edge to edge protector on it. I have a gap that allows light to go through.
I just looked closely at mine, and there is no gap or light bleed.

i have a little of the light leak... but does it matter? Not really.. it doesnt change the quality of the image or screen.. plus I have a case on mines, i wont even notice..
Thanks for the response. Imo, it matters a lot. I don't always have a case on and I can see the leak looking directly at the screen head on. Resell value will suck too.
Hey all long time stalker here Lol!
Came across a full adhesive case friendly tempered glass screen protector from a company called coverycases...
It actually showed up in my Facebook feed and I'm wondering if anyone has had any experience with it?
It says it's their 3rd gen and I've never heard of them...
Any input would be appreciated!
Thanks

Not sure if they are the same, but this looks like a rebranded version for a little cheaper on the 'zon: http://amzn.to/2njjC7o

I've Tried this one and seems to work well. Only have had it for about 3 days and clarity and touch sensitivity has been great. I've attached some pictures but if you want more let me know.
I'll try to update in a week and if you need another update let me know.
It is a bit of work to put on but if you do it correctly you should be good without bubbles. But as other full adhesives, it is as most if not installed well you will likely get bubbles and won't disappear.
It has been the only full adhesive at the price range to work well and using it with the Spigen tough armor case.
Also, like others with a black bar on the side, it does disturb the screen a bit as shown in the second picture. Which is similar to the Otao screen protector I used before installing this one. It is not a bother to me but it could be a bother to some.
My favorite thing about the site is that they have a "you've unlocked a mystery discount" spinning wheel for entering your email address. I entered my email address and spun, I won "free shipping" only thing is they already offer free shipping. So, essentially I won exactly what they already give away to everyone.
Useful.

Does it have the annoying blue line going down each side of the edge screen? All of this type of protector that I've tried had that and I hate it.

I haven't seen or don't know what the blue line you are meaning. But as mentioned it does have the Black bar that many hate on the sides as shown in one of the pictures I posted.
That is the main drawback of this one. I could tolerate as many what I see does not cause problems but this is something that everyone hates. See the picture with the reddish orange sides and see the black bar that is in between or I will try to take another picture tonight or tomorrow and post it here.

Yeah, the bar on the sides is annoying. Thanks.
Some more pictures as well showing the black bar
Update it has been good without any problems. It has been a little over a week since installing it and has maintained a good seal without any dust in the edges.
Clarity is better than TGSP with the only adhesive on the edges, as well as the showing of fingerprints as well.
Overall the best I've had so far for a Full Adhesive. The only drawback as mentioned is the bar on the sides as shown in pictures.
The only thing I haven't gone back to the Whitestone has been because of the screen lifting up after removing due to bubbles being distracting.
This could the next best Full Adhesive if you are able to withstand the bar on the sides.
Also ordered the one on Amazon if you are interested in which one I got.
Very good product. Full adhesive. Haven't try it underwater. Hopefully won't come off underwater
