[Q] Any suggestions about best screen protectors? - Vibrant Accessories

Hello, everyone
I bought my vibrant days ago, after that, I'm looking for screen protectors. And I've tried two kinds from ebay and amazon. But I found that bost of them are not fit with vibrant(although they said it does), they are smaller than the screen(shorter). So just a waste of my money.
Now, I'm asking for suggestions. Which screen protectors as you know is the best? fit the screen very well and can protect the screen well?
Thanks

BTW: the brand I bought from amazon is amzer! this one is not a good one, the size has problem

there's actually already a thread on best sp in this section, just search for it. But I recommend steinheil or realook b/c they have some of the best clarity and fit on the vibrant closely. The only downside is that they cost $10-13 for a pack but you get the best bang for your buck with them.

thanks, the amzer also cost me $10 but worth nothing!

I'm almost 6 months into my Realook, and it's still awesome. You get two for about $10 at Amazon, and their customer service is top notch.
Two bits of advice, don't bend it too much when you apply it, or you'll get a nasty rainbow effect under fluorescent light. Do it right and you can't even tell it's there.
Also they come with the two sides marked for how you should apply it (Side 1 faces out, side 2 sticks to the glass). I've ended up being the guy that has to apply these to everyone's phone, and I've learned that it's much easier if you peel off side 2 and stick it to the phone first, then remove side 1.
The nice thing about Realook, as I mentioned before, is their CS. After I screwed up the first round (bent it a little too much) they sent me two more for free.

if you want quality/lifetime
invisishield is the only to go... there like 20 bucks at bestbuy... they got a cool gel feel too em too...
ive bought 3 packs of the "tmo's vibrant" screen protectors and went through em so quick... there 15 for two... and they last maybe a few months... im currently not using any protector.... i got a spare vibrant from my brother so if i **** this one up... i got a new one waiting for me

Go with realook, I have ordered at least 10 for different devices. Three for my Vibrant. The only drawback is the leaves oily prints from your fingers, no biggie a quick wipe fixes that. But when clean it you can't even tell its there.

just ordered another set of realook.
this one lasted me 4-5 months. got my money's worth.
11 bucks + free shipping off amazon.
keys and phone must not be in the same pocket I dunno why that's so hard for me to do..

Thanks,all
I've ordered 2p realook

Do I really need a Screen Protector for Captivate?

Hi,
Is the Capacitative screen of this phone is scratch resistant like iPhone? I was able to use my iPhone for 2years without getting a scratch on screen. I am awaiting my phone in mail, was thinking of buying accesories...
Thank you
I won't be getting a protector for mine. As long as you are careful, you'll be fine.
Even people with ocd make mistakes. Get the case from att and a screen protector. Protect your investment. Trust me.

Very true. And that whole scratch protector is kinda a lie. You can see pics/vids where the iPhone screen is pretty scratched.
No offense to anyone posting on this topic but I do not understand the purchase of accessories from AT&T or any other provider store. Items for these phones can be purchased significantly cheaper from online.
I bought a box of cut-to-size screen protectors for $5 from amazon and it has lasted our family through several phones and replacements. Touch screen function is not hindered and clarity is perfectly fine.
Though I use screen protectors, I do not believe in phone cases. I feel a phone is built to fit the users hand and cases add unwanted bulk that I don't like. Accidents do happen but in most situations you will cause no more than cosmetic damage. Use some sense when handling your phone and it should last until your next.
I remember recently having a "discussion" with my wife as to why she paid more to get a white iphone and then put a case on it. This baffled me to the point of agitation and I had to drop the conversation.
If really concerned, just get insurance through your provider or home insurance company. At least until the phone price drops after the next big release.
Thanks
Thanks for the replies, will be getting a case any way, still thinking of screen protector...

QFT on all that. I bought like 6 from Ebay China for like $1 and they work better than Apple's $10 ones.

That's a calculated risk.
Is spending $5/mo with a $50 deductible worth it versus spending $30 for a case???
You obviously have not used any good cases. Not all cases are like Otterbox and add half a pound to the weight and an inch to the thickness... SwitchEasy was my favorite when I had my iPhone. Waiting for something similar on the Captivate now.
I'm debating this as well.
I got the body glove case from att and a pack of screen protectors. The att rep put it on for me bubble free. I keep the case on when i am out and take it off at my desk at work. The phone is beautiful. The screen protector is more finger friendly and shows no smudges.
Definitely get a screen protector. Accidents happen, no matter how careful you are. And I would suggest a body glove of some type, again, accidents happen.
What brand of screen protector do you guys recommend?

aaaaaaaaahhhhhaha white iphone with a case. i lol'd. women eh?
with ur statement on bulk, get one with a minimalistic design. a case not only protect ur phone but look sexy too. if you scratch a case you can replace it hangin on to that sex appeal. scratch a phone and ur sol. Also good condition is important for resale
oh but if ur really against cases just get one like leather case that you only keep it in while ur not using it
Case:
I understand both sides. I guess "accidentally" putting my phones through more punishment than I thought they would endure has given me excess confidence in their physical design. I am a fan of the "phone pocket" now in most jeans and cargo pants. It is comfortable and easy to grab (also stays low to the ground). I would like to take some advice and get a nice case but I guess my wife's iPhone cases have already left me disapproving and I hate to add bulk, but maybe I'll try again. I'll admit the Captivate is a bit "smooth."
Screen Protector:
There is not to much to argue about here. I wouldn't worry about brand.
1. Does it stick to the screen?
2. Is it clear?
3. Does it fit?
If you answer YES to all three of these then it is a good screen protector.
If you answer NO to any one of these questions, KEEP SHOPPING.
I'll take a look later to see what brand the box is I have at home so I can post it.
Slim but durable cases are possible. Just very few companies put forth the effort to engineer one.
Switch Easy, they only make for iProducts but when I had my 3GS it was great. A thin rubber around the outside (protect it from shocks and also keeps the case itself from scratching it), then you snap a horizontal then a vertical case that form into one hard case... It was very thin (nothing like the bulk of an Otterbox), yet I think you could have thrown it across the room and the phone been fine.
I recommend the invisibleShield by Zagg. Had one on my iphone and totaled out a work van by flipping it with the phone sitting on the dash. Was one single mark on the iphone screen and it came off when I put a new Shield on it. I was impressed. It feels a bit rubbery for a screen protector at first but never noticed any impedance with touch sensitivity. Costs a bit more then normal protectors as well but again well worth it if you ask me.
Just got home and looked at the protectors I have. The brand is WRITERIGHT (universal screen protectors)
A set of 10 was dirt cheap ($3) and I have been using them for about 2 years. They are cut-to-fit and will cover the entire face of the captivate.

hello all. first post on here. just got my captivate last saturday and still waiting for martin fields to make a screen protector for this phone. they are a lil pricey, but totally worth it.
Well when I picked up my Captivate, I picked up the Body Glove Silicone Case from ATT because I prefer to keep any new devices in a silicone/gel style case for some protection. My sister and mom picked up the Captivate after they played with mine on Sunday *7-19-2010* and called me last night to set up my mom's phone and install a screen protector *3x for $ 9.99 at the corporate att store in my area*, for installing the sp and transfering the contacts *manually* and setting up gmail, I got a SP for free for my captivate for 15 minuets worth of work. Not too bad and I am a little more less worried then the last 2 days..
HTH,

Wow, 16 replies and not one answer to the original question about the Glass.
Many devices like Microsoft Zunes have a special hardened Glass, you can use keys, knives, razor blades etc to it and not scratch them. If a screen protector makes you warm and fuzzy go for it, but if this device (I don't yet know what Glass it has) has "that" Glass then its a waste of money. It's going to take a hell of a hit to break it, and a sceen protector wont prevent that.
You can read about such glass here:
http://www.anythingbutipod.com/archives/2009/04/glass-screen-durability-test-a-lesson-on-the-mohs-hardness-scale.php
I ran a screen protector on my HTC Hermes for years, and hated it. Finally removed it last year and love it. And no scratches. (Case has flip cover for when its in your pocket) A lot more depends on how you treat it. I have 4 sons, 2 of them seem to destroy electronics, 2 of them don't.

Perhaps because nobody knows? And also nobody is going to scratch their expensive device just to find out.

[Q] Best screen protector for me?

I asked in another thread about invisibleSHEILD but Im seeing after different opinions, that there are various others offering the same protection at different prices.
Im going to be using a HTC Desire Z. Its "environment" will most likely be sliding in and out of my pocket and inside of my hoodies' pockets so yes, there will be lint around it. I dont want to use a case as it looks horrible and adds too much thickness to be in my pocket in a comfortable way. The "orange peel effect" is something I believe Im not going to mind. Im going for full body protection so keep that in mind as Ive read some full body protections cover more or less...
Ive pretty much slimmed it down to 5 but I might have missed some so vote Other, say which, and Ill add it to the poll
So which do you think is the best protection for me?
Also, thanks to everyone who is helping out. I truely appreciate it
Can't change the poll? Wanted to add Skinomi.
I am wondering the same thing. I have a Vibrant and want to figure out what a good protective sheild would be. This case is nice but I'd love to carry it without one and not have to worry too much.

Same situation it seems
If you vote, please state why and your expirences if any with others. Thanks once again
So little votes...
Went ahead with the invisibleSHIELD. There was a 50% discount and you just have to take advantage on that
Thanks to all once more for the advice
Now finally, onto the HTC Desire Z (Ill come back problably asking for help on ROM flashing too )
Just recieved and installed the invisibleSHIELD. ZAGG just recieved this email from me:
Totally unacceptable: Last time I’m buying from ZAGG
My purchase for a invisibleSHIELD from you has been horrible since the beginning. First time around, the order button was broken on your webpage and I have to contact you to fix it. I ordered my invisibleSHIELD on 5/5/2011 and it shipped the next day. I sent you guys a email about my order and I’m STILL waiting for a reply. It arrived 5/18/2011; I’ve been shipped things quicker from the United States and Asia but fine. I receive the package (from Germany, why???) and first thing is that the box is semi crushed and not what I would expect from a company. Next thing, the solution bottle you guys send is unscrewed and naturally the solution spilled. I was stuck without a solution and I had to make do (because I’m not reordering paying a dime for you and waiting another 13 days) with soap and water. Next I find that some of the parts are actually already unstuck to the paper so I had to even put MORE effort in installing. I installed the shield today (again after the experience not worth it even if it protects from everything as there are companies that do the same thing).
Basically, no customer care, horrible package protection, and a product that simply is not worth it. Thankfully, I got a discount you were offering and paid half because this product is worth just that and even less.
I’m not recommending this to anyone; I prefer they try other products such as Best Skins Only which actually gives a decent price for the products.
Yea i also want to know which best screen protector i have to use ?
invisibleshield hands down.
From now on, BestSkinsEver; period. They are the only protectors I will use. Cheap, fast shipping, and great protection.
Zaggs are the best u ever feel on those?
Sent from my Arc using XDA premium App
I got an invisibleshield installed in a local store so luckily, I did not have any problem with it. I just did not experience installing it first hand which looks kind of exciting though the pressure.
I have some problems with it though. The small parts that cover the round edges seem to be peeling away and accumulating some dust or cotton, as I reckon from my pocket which annoys me. They said that I could get a new one but I have to ship the whole thing, so does that men I am going to be left with no protector until it gets shipped to my address? Not really an option if you ask me.

Agree, I've bought a a screen protector once which was full of scratches within a month or so.
I use a screen protector from xoskins on a lot of my stuff. They are uv coated so they don't turn yellow, resist finger prints, and do not feel like a rubbery orange peel.
Sorry you've had such a bad experience with Zagg. I've never had an issue with them myself. The screen protectors have worked very well for me and I've put them on something like eight devices. I'd still recommend them to anyone.
Best buy screen protectors
I hate paying the price at Best Buy, but their sales rep(s) are really good at applying the protector.

I would stay away from invisibleSHIELD unless you have the patience to install it or pay someone else to install it. My bro used it on his Evo 4G and for the price it was not all that good. I have been using ReaLook for my Epic 4G and it is very good and offers great protection
I use invisibleSHIELD protects good and installation was simple.Like other poster said it's peeling on corners and edges but I change my case a lot so that contributes.

Is this screen protector any good?

Is this anygood? and the mirror one will the screen still look good?

You are buying a flagship phone for £600-700 and ask if £0.99 screen protector is good when the good ones cost like £10-15????
Allways used cheap ones for the sg2 been fine for me.
So why do you ask? There are also threads discussing about screen protectors with many links to what others recommend

What rubbish. The cheap ones are perfectly fine. You pay £10-15 for a screen protector you are being ripped off.
Such statement, if we use it for smartphones too, would say that you are being ripped off for SGS3 too. Better buy some cheap chinese replicas.
Its rubbish because they work perfectly well and usually go on easier than the expensive ones. I have never bought such rubbish as things like the invisible shield stuff. Total junk.
I have a cheap £1 one on my Galaxy Tab 8.9 right now, you cant even tell its on there, it fits perfectly.
Same i always buy £2 ones and they are awesome my HTC Desire has a mirror protector on it i bought 2 years ago still brilliant. It was just £2..
So yes it is good..
is a screen-protector still needed/suggested?
i came across a discussions about this, but there was no real conclusion about this =/

well,even if keys and coins don't scratch your screen fine sand and such will, say the phone takes a plunge and go skidding down the pavement screen side down you wont be so happy. a 1$ screen protector works greate.
Absolutely, i have scratched gorilla glass before. Having said that my S2 has been fine so far with no protector, but it has always been in a soft pouch.

This is not true, i had a cheap screen protector for my SGSII and it was rubbish so i splashed out and purchased a SGP Ultra Olephobic screen protector for about €13 and i still have it on my phone it has never failed me once.
Well its true for me, you had bad luck. For the sake of £1 each or even less its worth the risk.
I was more asking will the mirror affect make the screen less visible?
And i have always used cheap ones and never had a problem. I paid for a £9 once and was rubbish had a rainbow affect and made things blurred.
These guys generally get good reviews, a little pricey but apparently good...

Cheap ones arent that good tbh. They are good the first weeks but it gets torn and dirty very easily. I bought a few when i was studying abroad in China for my iPad. It is cheap, sure but not worth it. Bought a flex HD one from SGP.
This one is good

Protector quality overall isnt the best ........plus with the screen protector you dont even get the solution ....you have to make your own solution with soap water....i actually used a left over from zagg I ordered both the front and the back ...and putting the back protector is a pain ...the front one aint that bad....i would though honestly prefer zagg any day over it ...specially if yuo pay the full retail of $10

Ordered from them many times before...I never pay more than 70% off. Just bought it at 75% off yesterday. They cut the film...sometimes you will get defective film or the computer incorrectly cuts it. Just email them..they will send you out replacement for free...no shipping charges. A couple times they shorted me some items...email them and got them in a few days.
Personally, I rather pay $2.50 for full body protector than $20-30 for Zaggs. For ~$2 I can several in case I mess up.
I just installed my xtreme guard today. I've had it on every phone and tablet I have ever owned.
I order from eBay as they have eBay account and it's dirt cheap.
One time they messed up my order and they shipped a new one free of charge.
All you have to do is send them an email and they will send right out and you won't have to pay a single penny.
Paid like $3-$5 for full front and back extreme guard and will buy again for sure.
It's very thick and gives the feel of real protection, hard to mess up because you put it on like window tint and best of all it's cheap and their customer support is awesome!
Highly recommend! I can post pics of my pro and wife's iPhone if needed. Also put it on son's iPad after he broke the screen and it's been holding up for almost a year now: )

I bought the extreme guard screen protector for my Nexus 4 on a forum recommendation. NEVER AGAIN!! The screen protector sucks. First tried dry application, bubbles everywhere. removed it and washed it with soap solution. BTW does not include the soap solution. had to make my own with Dawn. Not thrilled about getting the screen wet and solution into the speakers and seams. After curing for 3 days I started using the phone. A week of putting it in my pocket and removing it, the tip of the corner came off. Slowly started to rip the whole corner. I installed another with the same 3 day curing. First try on putting the phone in a bumper case and it ripped the screen protector off the screen. The surface is not smooth and sticky to the skin. I had to use NuTouchHD to make it slippery. Also since it has soap solution underneath the screen protector, freaking rainbow streak everywhere. I urge you not to buy this product no matter how much the discount is.
For easy, dry and bubble free application, I tried Illumishield. It's thicker than Extreme Guard, washable and reusable. No rainbow effect. Use scotch tape to remove lint under the screen if there's lint bubble. I would recommend the illumishield screen protector over extreme guard any day.
I just picked up the 3 pack casemate that ATT sells for 10 bucks. I just used a couple sprays from my left over zagg solution to make it easier to install. Hard to scratch and doesnt peel up like the softer types of screen protector, im satisfied with it. Also, its very clear and doesnt stick to smudges at all (couple wipes from a lense cloth cleans it up).:good:

Word of caution regarding Zaggs screen protector for OGP... It sucks!! I've used the invisible shield before on other devices and I've never had a problem, but I have two major problems with the OGP model, one of which renders the film useless...
1. For some reason, they decided that protecting the home button wasn't important... so instead of them giving you a button film, they just cut around it and below it... so one of the most used things on the phone is not protected...
2. Probably the most important fail of this film is that it's not cut to extend all the way to the edges... it stops short about 3mm all around from the edge... doesn't sound like a big deal right? and I didn't think much of it... until I put my two awesome cases on the phone... what happens? The bezel from the cases sits perfectly over the end of the film so that every time I grip the phone or push one of the side buttons, the film peels up and bubbles... I have to flatten it out over and over again and there's no way to adjust it... this equally sucks because dirt and debris will find it's way under the film and probably cause more damage than if it wasn't there to begin with... Sooooo.... BEWARE!! I'm gonna try the other film mentioned above... Thanks MrNa5ty.:good:
Btw, if you're looking for a good case for your OGP I recommend two that I came across that are relatively cheap and extremely well made (sorry, I can't post the links due to my noob status):
1. "For LG Optimus G Pro E980 T-Stand Impact Kickstand Hybrid Double Layer Fusion Cover Case" - my fav so far, it's solid... it almost feels like an otter box because it has bubber and hard plastic... plus a well made kickstand which comes in handy... and the price? wait for it... wait for it.... 77 cents!!!!!!!! on amazon... a ridiculous steal if you ask me.
2. "GreatShield Guardian S Series Slim Fit S-Line Design TPU Case for LG Optimus G Pro" - Only $7!! on amazon and it's an awesome case and it looks good too.
New code for their site 70OFF
Got mine for $3 shipped!
Just received the first case you recommended. This is a nice case, indeed. Thanks for sharing.

Anker® Tempered-Glass Screen Protector

Installed last night and very impressed. Had 3 small patches of spider web, 2 of which have gone on their own and the 3rd is hardly noticeable and I have a feeling this will go too.
There's a slight lift around the edges of the earpiece, I guess that's down to the glass on the phone not being completely flat.
I've had a Spigen tr and a Nillkin, neither of which went on as well as the Anker - although that could be just me having more practice!
Oleophobic coating is also working nicely, a few smears but overall very good indeed.
I'd definitely recommend one especially if you don't want to pay the premium for Spigen.

This is with a Spigen Ultra Hybrid..
Just got one of these myself. Its pretty good but my cruzerlite tpu case is not working well with this SP. Might need to get a different case

I wish this was available in Canada =(
Just put mine on yesterday and only ended up with one small bubble in the top left area of the phone and no spider webs (w00t w00t!)
I have it paired with a Spigen Slim Armor and it fits on JUST about right. Not sure if it's putting pressure on the glass screen but it looks like it fits perfectly. We'll see how long it lasts with it.
Texture on the glass screen is amazing. Neither I or my co-workers could feel any type of difference.
bought this and have small spiderweb at bottom.. still happy, very high quality.
hope sw goes away after time.
I agree, wish I could find these in canada. $15 bucks I'm willing to spend, $35 not so much.

if you don't care waiting a few weeks, you can buy this Glass-M (0.15mm) for 19.99$ US free shipping to canada :

I just installed mine tonight. I love it. Feels great and have no issues with the touch screen.
I could have lined up the protector a little better, but despite that I only have a couple a small air bubbles that should go away.
I highly recommend it! I just wish my cruzerlite case would still work with it. Oh well...

Shame about the cases not working well.. Spigen Hybrid is fine, not noticed any issues as yet.
Can you please provide some pictures? :good:
How thick is this screen protector?
I'll take some later :good:
0.38mm I think, feels very nice though.. not too thick at all.
Many thanks!
I can't seem to find the UK or German amazon site for this?
How does it compare to Mime Ghost glass?

No...Look to the title. This is the link to "Anker® Screen Protector for Google Nexus 5 [3 Pack] Xtreme Scratch Defender Ultra-Clear High-Response Premium with Lifetime Warranty"
The Pet film screenprotectors....
Oh that's weird.. The link came from my order confirmation from Amazon for the glass protector! I didn't read it, just assumed it would be correct.. I guess they aren't selling therm.
Edit: ha just noticed that the original link in the first post goes to the wrong item now too.. Ah well.

I'm wondering when they are selling them again. I'm doubting between Anker or Mime Ghost screen. Which one is better? Anker offers lifetime warranty though!
Not sure, I've not used the Mime yet.. Only this, the Spigen and the Nillkin. The Anker has been the best so far, it's still on my phone and not chipped, which is an improvement!

i got one recently about 2 weeks ago, and for some reason i got a huge bubble spider looking web about half inch on the bottom of my screen and about 2 small spider webs which i didnt mind too much. I contacted them through amazon since supposedly they're bubble "free". This is the reponse i got
"Thanks for the response and sorry for the issue.
Actually we have had this issue reported and we are currently investigating it with our suppliers as it seems to be a batch issue. A replacement as much as I would have liked to make, it's not a viable option.
May I ask a second chance to make things right by issuing a refund? We will further process once we get your consent."
Ever since then the screen protector is not available, i didnt want a refund because i liked the screen protector but that half inch bubble its getting on my nerves. So i went ahead and accepted the refund will be trying Nilkin i guess.
I got this screen protector a couple weeks ago, too, and I have a big bubble at the bottom that hasn't gone away. I just called and they said they have made some manufacturing changes to the protector which should (hopefully) resolve the bubble problems. However, the new batch won't be ready for 1-2 weeks.
I am going to wait for a new one. They will call me when they are ready to be shipped.
