Not able to post links yet, but they have them at Amazon.
Just search for Lexerd - Archos 43 Internet Tablet TrueVue Anti-glare MP3 Screen Protector on amazon . com.
Also on newmp3technology in the archos 43 IT section.
You are welcome

Doesn't such skin protectors make the touch less responsive?
Because with a Resistive touch, responsive is the key..
Hope to hear how it works soon!

their screens actually don't reduce the touch responsiveness. Correct me if i'm wrong but isn't the Archos 43 a capacitive screen?

No!!!! My greatest disappointment.
The touch screen is resistive which makes the 43 pretty crappy IMO.

I just installed the Skinomi on my A43it, I don't find it to make the user experience any different. Though, I use my fingernail as opposed to my flesh for my interactions with this thing. The resistive screen is what keeps this a ~$250 device rather than over $300, which made a difference in my choice to purchase it. Though, it is the biggest downfall of the device. Learning to make the most of it is important. A longer fingernail (I use my thumb mostly) or some kind of Stylus (or other object) makes it much more pleasant.

Does a stylus or a finger slide just as easily on the Skinomi screen protector as on the bare screen?

I got no answer, so I ordered the Skinomi. The answer is: no. A stylus with a softish end doesn't glide over the Skinomi like it does over a bare screen..

I got a custom cut ghost armor protector for my 32. I didn't notice any difference in responsiveness.
$20 well spent and comes with a lifetime warranty. If there is a ghost armor booth or store nearby I would strongly recommend it.

screen protector for galaxy tab

I just purchased one on amazon from ArmorSuit. Gotta be one of the best screen protectors out there. Way Way better then skinomi and the majority that is out there. 5/5 stars. Just my honest opinion. Want to help out those who are looking for something of quality. Go ahead and give it a try, you wont regret it.

Also want to say that their customer service is top notch. Love it.

Is invisible shield just not good anymore?
I think I'll try this Armorsuit...I just received the SGP screen protector....suck and overpriced..lucky I got it from Amazon...easy return service....
I got the Steinheil Ultra Crystal (SQ) and the fit (some air around the camera) and quality is really good (been using Steinheil screen protectors for years on my phones). I got my from Amazon.com and its kinda expensive but its like $21/year =).
This isn't the place I got my, but you can see all the different types.
http://cretouch.com/samsung-galaxy-c-210_238.html
couldn't find one here, hence bought a notebook screen protector and pruned it for perfect fit on my galaxy tab plus used the remnant for my phone.
I'm worried if I put an Invisibleshield screen protector on my GT 10.1 it will leave a permenant haze or film on the the screen when I decide to take it off. Can anyone offer any information? Thank you
I got this.

3x screen protectors for $10 shipped. They're matte. Fit almost perfect (1mm smaller than the actual glass to prevent lifting).
I dont see any reason for a screen protector other than wanting to have a matte screen to remove the glare.

Most of us actually prefer our screen (gorilla glass or not) scratch-free. Having a protector gives you ease of mind when rubbing a smudge or fingerprint off too.

I just installed that exact same one from the same seller. Fits perfectly, especially around the camera and ambient light sensor. It adds a little bit of a grainy texture to the display, but all anti-glare films I've used do that. Not sure if it's really got an anti-grease / oleophobic coating as mine has some decent fingerprints, but the matte surface hides it well.
Tip to line it up the first time: before you take off the backing, line it up how you want it. Scotch tape it 3x on one of the edges, preferrably the one with the pull-tab for the backing. Make a tape handle for the opposite end of the screen. When you're ready to install it, hold the tape handle and pull the backing off with the tab, then pull the handle tight as you lay down the protector.
Trust me, I went through at least 7 different screen protectors (I got the Asus, Acer, and Samsung) and this is by far the best one out there. Good luck.

How does it stack up against InvisibleShield and the other 3M Scratchguard types? I usually don't like the texture on those.
Don't know about the ones I've been hearing about in this thread, but I've got InvisibleShield on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 and I'm probably never taking it off. It works wonders and I have the same protector for my HTC Evo. Never need another screen protector once you go InvisibleShield.
I myself have been searching for a screen protector for my tab. I have the invisishield on my evo4g, and I find that it adds quite a bit of sticky friction to swiping, or any time you drag your finger across the screen. It's not so important on the phone as it would be on the tab, so here's my question:
What sp will offer some protection, but doesn't add much friction to the touch experience.
Appreciate the input!

The one I mentioned above is smooth. The matte finish makes it feel more like high gloss paper than glass. I'm considering buying a clear protector from the same company though as the "sparkly" effect that the matte finish adds to the screen (esp. things that are solid green for some reason) is getting on my nerves.
I have the zagg invisibleSHIELD maximum protection, is was a little skeptical at first but really like it now the i have had it on for a coupke weeks. There is more grip to the tablet now, but i can still slide my fingers over the screen with no issues. I will say this though, if you have never installed something like this take your time whrn installing it.

Apologies if it has already been asked, i may have missed it.
I'd like to have a specific anti-glare screen protector, the glossy screen is not bad but still very reflective, a part from the usual fingerprints issue.
Any product that suits my needs?

Screen protector - useful?

So... screen protectors... are they actually any use?
Do they protect from scratches? Or do they just make your device harder to use because the screen loses sensitivity?
I'd be interested in people's opinions
I recommend using screen protectors because
- they prevent the glass from getting scratches. Sand scratches glass easily. Screen protector helps.
- they can reduce glare from screen. Glare is the reflection you see on the screen that makes it much harder to see what's on screen.
- they can be cleaned with lesser care... any slight wet cloth can clean screen
- they don't cause any loss of sensitivity
- you can start using the plastic nib for the spen as it lasts much longer than rubber nibs. And having a screen protector gives a much better experience with plastic tips for spen.
- they are damn cheap. Don't like them... no problem.. throw them

I went all out & picked up an Invisishield at BB. Yes, it was about $30.00 (-minus 20% for Rewards club event) but is was worth it in my mind & I will be doind the same with my Nexus 10. I really like the frogz type protectors, but the Invishield is really starting to grow on me as they are nearly impossible to damage. I have had it gouged to hell & in a warm environment after a few hours it always "heals itself". It is a bit tacky feeling (tacky sticky, not tacky cheap), so it is a bit hard or weird to get used to at first, but then you learn to touch lightly & all is well. Like stated above, the plastic S-Pen tip is MUCH better for use with screen savers, especially this type, but the device works just as well with the S-Pen without any loss of sensitivity.

I don't use a screen protector and frankly I don't see the need to.
The only advantage I see is the reduction in glare and even that depends on which screen protector you bought.
They DO cause a reduction in sensitivity, I have used a couple before on other devices (like my Note Phablet) and have thrown them all away.
A microfiber cloth cleans easily, and I use the plastic nib SPen HEAVILY and there are no scratches.
If you are paranoid though, then by all means. There are pretty cheap ones available
I always install a screen protector because it cuts down on finger prints. Last 3 have been Ghost Armour. They don't drag on your finger/S-Pen like the invisible shield or feel spongy. Also, clear like glass. And lifetime warranty.
All my gadgets have screen protectors. Better safe than sorry. Have protector on my note as well and no difference on using stylus at all. Smooth and write the same as without screen protector. I have anti glare kind and so easy to take care of finger prints as well. Overall I would highly recommend to get one.

So... Stupid questions... Are they actually any use?
There are about 1.000 similar questions in all mobile threads. So what do you think? Will a protective transparent cover protect your screen? What do you think? Please make an quess.
Sorry my friend for my reply but I tried to stop myself without any success.
Thank you for the intelligent replies to this thread.
It's good to see that lots of you find that they don't cause problems in using them; the last time I bought one I found that it did cause a loss of accuracy on the device I was using - but that was a few years ago and I am sure that the technology will have moved on.

Review for Carbon Fibre
Hi, I am getting a note 10.1 and want a carbon fibre blue ghost armour for it, would it affect the accuracy or will it scrape of what , thanks in advance!!!
The anti glare ones really degrade the screen vibrancy.

I recently applied the MinGuard Anti-Glare screen protector and my default stylus is acting strange. Don't know if it's the protector or the stylus. After installing the protector, I immediately changed to the white nib which glides better than the one.
But when clicking on buttons(not swiping) using the stylus, the tablet does not react sometimes. Takes several tries to successfully click on a button. It doesn't matter how hard I press, the angle in which I press, or how long I press. Now, when I use my finger to click on a button, it works as it should.
For instance, when I bring up the Task Manager and click with the stylus between Ram Manager and Active Appllications" the tablet does not react many times. Or even if I try to click the "X" to close the Task Manager, it takes many times to close. Or if I click the buttons in Snote to change my pen tip, it takes many times to bring it up. This issue doesn't occur all buttons.... I can click on the system buttons in the lower left no problem or app buttons.
Do you guys think the screen protector is the culprit? Or bad stylus? Thanks so much.
I THINK I found the issue. It was the magnets in my book cover. When I position the flap(which contains the magnets) out of the way, it works much better...but not perfect. so I think the protector takes away from stylus sensitivity a bit. Magnets effecting the stylus was discussed in this thread: S-Pen Inaccurate
I recieved this one yesterday that I got from Amazon:
amFilm (TM) Premium Screen Protector Film Clear (Invisible) for Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (10.1-Inch) and Galaxy Note 10.1 (2-Pack) [in AM retail packing]
It took me both supplied protectors to really apply what I consider almost perfect. I believe there are like 2-3 really small dust particles near the camera but I didn't want to risk ruining my 2nd attempt. I applied it last night. No issues at all with my pen or screen. Mine has the white tip on. I decided on this particular product because it's clear and had great reviews. Glad I chose this one and better safe than sorry for my screen, but to each their own.

Hi cama-cama. Read my post above yours. I pasted the one I ordered off Amazon. It was easy to apply. I have had NO issues with my pen. I wrote this reply with my pen.
There really is no point in using a screen protector for this tablet. Just get a flip case, don't be stupid with your tablet, and bam, no scratches, ever.

You can be guaranteed to see micro scratches after a couple months without a screen protector. Your choice.

Screen Protector: Matte or Clear?

For those who have one installed or have tried them, which would be better? And which would work better with the pen input?
I moved from a clear screen to matte protector.
Both work with spen input. No difference for me... maybe an artist can tell u any finer differences.
Picking between matte and clear is your choice... google for pros/cons of each and see which works in your usage scenario.

Oh ok, that is good, no difference then. I went with clear, it has always been what I have used, no distortion in picture, it may have a bit more glare but much easier for me and cheaper. I will just change to a plastic tip then.
Im probably posting this too late.. But when you buy a screen protector for the note.. GET A PLASTIC ONE. not the vinyl self healing type . They do cause drag with the S pen .The cheaper ones work best.... I also use matte finish some of the anti fingerprint ones have a bit of a surface thats not perfect slick feels a bit more like paper. Kinda like the surface area of my Wacom Tablet...

I absolutely agree with that. Problem is that the GNote 10.1 has not the highest resolution and a matte protector will allways make the screen image less sharp. In the case of the GNote 10.1 it makes a huge difference for me. On my HoX with >300 ppi I can barely see the difference.
That is very unfortunate, cause I like the pros of matte screen protectors very much:
-Better touch/slide feeling
-More resistance for S-Pen -> feels more like paper
-Less fingerprints
-No reflections
But, you know, try it out, it's not like the protectors are very expensive...
I posted this on another forum I frequent, but feel its purpose could be better served in this thread.
Any screen protectors like this ArmorSuit MilitaryShield that feature a high gloss, spage-age alien technology with some crazy horse**** composite material that reforms and repairs itself: DO NOT EVER BUY THIS IF YOU WANT TO USE YOUR STYLUS!
The weird material this thing is made of has two properties which immediately prove about as negative as possible:
1. As soon as you put your stylus to the screen, it looks like you've stabbed a hole in the protector or screen itself. Writing just continues that streak and it honestly looks like you're scratching the **** out of your device.
2. If you're able to make it past that initial shock from thinking you've just destroyed your screen, you won't be able to write for long because this protector feels like it's made of super glue designed to bond stylus tips to its surface. Trying to write the title to a powerpoint slide I was transcribing in class ended up giving me about 1/3rd the first letter before jumping, completely skipping the next letter, and then just picking up / leaving off at random so it looked like I was trying to create some alien language.
Also, the ArmorSuit Military Shield shipped with a single screen protector and, not a joke or exaggeration, an instructional video (found on YouTube by the manufacturer) which literally instructs you to cover your hands and screen protector in this liquid found in the packaging; so much of it that you're dripping this **** all over the place while you try to slide the screen into place.
I don't know how the nub tipped styli work, as my stylus has a pen tip so your results could be wildly different.
However, for under $10 ($5 less than the ArmorSuit Shield above) I picked up a MiniGuard by MiniSuit and, silly naming aside, am extremely happy with the purchase.
Its matte finish isn't so apparent that it reduces the visual quality of the screen, yet it does help reduce glare and fingerprints/smudges. It provides a nice surface for the stylus to write without adding resistance while the stylus is pressed to the screen, or friction from a weird material hell-bent on keeping your stylus from writing for longer than .0000001th of a second without skipping.
The MiniGuard came with 3 screen protectors, a microfiber cloth, and a little cardboard card. This card is kind of small and feels like it could have easily been more useful had it been 1" wider. But, that's a non-issue because my earlier purchase did leave me with a way better air bubble pusher card.
I'm sure there are other protectors out there that do this job just as well if not better, but, from the two I've recently purchased and tried I figured sharing my experience on this front might help one of you avoid wasting money on something utterly useless.

Thanks for the advice. You convinced me and I just bought one here (more convenient for European customers).
I already have a matte screen protector (bought cheap) so I know what to expect. Anyway I hope the miniguard will be of better quality and that, with three chances, I'll be able to install it better than the one I already have (with a couple of dust grains I couldn't get rid of).
I have the Armoursuit that nick mentioned, and I agree. The stylus drags on it big time. I have half a mind to just take the damn thing off.

Experience with screen protectors

I have applied the HTC screen protector. It is okay but the capacitive buttons seem to have lost sensitivity. The feeling of the surface is okay but not as good as some matt protectors i have used on other devices. Anyone tried any matt or anti glare protector yet?

No what I found is that I need to select the home button a couple of times sometimes before my touch is detected. It is inconsistent though. I have ordered a matt screen protector which should arrive tomorrow so will switch and see if there is a difference.

I'm finding the same with the HTC protectors. Home and Back often need a couple of prods to register. Also, I dunno if it was slightly too big by a mm or so, but they don't seal down the edges properly and make it look fugly.
I've ordered some other cheap-brand ones to try with instead...
I found the HTC official ones a pile of crap
Both ended up in the bin, wouldnt stick at the edges of the phone and were terrible. Amazon UK now has a few bad reviews for them, when I ordered before the phone arrived there were none. Re ordered some others, they can't be worse than the HTC ones

The screen protector is not too matt and as usual assume you'll make a mistake with the first one. The size is very precise and you do need to line-up with the edges carefully to make sure the screen protector is sealed all round. Much better than the HTC ones.

Size wise - perfect width, but too short on length, around 2mm. Pretty matte alright. Looks like nice anti-fingerprint.
Worst part though - it adds something like "RGB grain/noise" to your screen, which is clearly visible especially on white background. Total disaster... And it's visible even from normal viewing distance... I will try to add some photos later.
It's only quick temporary solution for me, before I will get Spigen Ultra Clear.
I previously had HTC oem screen protector on this phone ...poor adhesion and grease magnet. I bought this matte screen protector from imyth at Amazon UK. Good fit, easy application and cheap...only about £2 for a pack of 5. Yes, there is a little brush noise when swiping but I would have that with any matte protector - sgp too. I am happy with it. Good clear image, looks professional and less fuss with fingerprints. Plus it is an eighth of the price of my usual sgp ultra optics.
Here is the imyth seen with and without double dip case (below):

Size wise - perfect width, but too short on length, around 2mm. Pretty matte alright. Looks like nice anti-fingerprint.

You're right about the colour change. Didn't mention that as I've had that with matt protection. May try another make, perhaps ultra clear.

Those who have installed a screen protector on their phones .
Did you face any issue with capacitive buttons below the screen ?

I have had intermittent reduced sensitivity issues with and without the screen protector. Plus, I've used two types of screen protector and had same experience. I think it is an issue with the phone. I hope HTC can fix this.

Fosman
For those in the US The Fosmon Crystal Clear Screen Protector Shield for HTC One / HTC M7 - 3 Pack is on sale at Amazon and Newegg for $1.97 with free shipping through SF Planet. I had great luck with all Fosman accessories.
I have used Ghost Armor and it is great. No orange peel effect at all. Crystal clear.

SoMi glass screen protector: no halo, full screen coverage, see link for pics

After seeing a lot of posts in the screen protector thread about there not being any good glass screen protectors, I just wanted to share a few photos with you guys of my phone with the screen protector on it. See link below. I misaligned the protector from top to bottom so there are a few spots on the bottom that didn't stick completely; those are my fault

Please note that the description says the protector doesn't fully cover the screen; I don't know if it said that when I bought it or not but they MIGHT have changed the design. If you bought one of these recently, please comment
Well, that indeed doesn't cover the whole screen. It has big gap on the sides.
Does it has dot matrix?
How is the responsiveness of the touch screen?
Is it easy to install? Do you need to apply any kind of wet solution?
Thanks!
It isn't a dot matrix, touch responsiveness is normal, install is like any other glass screen protector (no liquid, just stick it on and smooth out the bubbles)
And sorry if I wasn't clear, I meant it covers the whole OLED panel
Dang, doesn't ship to Canada

Ya, really disappointed that they don't. Really need something to protect the screen before my Pixel 2 order arrives.
Spigen seems to be releasing their version of the Pixel 2 tempered glass on Dec 13th.
No idea if it will actually fit to the screen well or not though.
For me the IQ shield works great, it is also user friendly for the installation part.

No problem! I went through 4 or 5 before I found one that works, Amazon is a huge mess with these things right now so I figured someone could benefit from my experience haha
