awesome thanks
Although the Thunderbolts screen is supposed to be pretty tough, it is not gorilla glass.

Only down side is they take away the sharpness of the picture. I just run VZW screen covers. I've had this one on since launch day and it still isn't peeling or bubbling.
Um using the seidio protector. Its the only one I have used that hasn't dulled the look. Simple install.

Yea very good. I used the crystal clear one and I'm currently using that anti fingerprint one with the matte finish
Invisashield from zagg. Best screen protector hands down. Had one on my imagio for over a year and put it through all kinds of abuse. Its still on and perfect. Show me another screen cover that you can scratch the **** out of with keys and it won't even phase it. Put one on my TB as soon as I took it out of the box and fully expect it to stay on long past the life of this phone.

I got the crystal clear from steinheil and it is nice. But it has scratches on the protector. Thinking of testing another brand. Something more durable.

How is the matte finish? Does it take away from the image quality of the screen?
Not true my usb charging cable barley touched my screen and scratched it. Sad thing is I'm anal about my phone, tablet, tv, and gaming systems. I take better care of those then I do my girlfriend LOL.

I am also looking to matte finish protector.... will check out the mall today
My crystal Steinheil is amazing. Try that.
I hate my Invisashield with the "orangepeel" texture. It also has a kind of tacky-feel to it.
I bought my girlfriend a sonix (by Lenntex) screen protector 2-pack (clear and anti-glare) for her iPhone and they're great! The finish is really hard and super smooth. It feels just like the naked glass. I'm waiting for my Thunderbolt ones to deliver any day now.
I purchased the protectors from Verizon. They work fairly well I have several scratches in the protector but not the screen. After prolonged usage though I can't clean the protector all the way anymore. Going to have to take it off and put on the second one that came with the kit.
What are the pros and cons of having a screen protector installed in the Galaxy S3? I'm thinking of NOT installing one but am I losing anything?
There are 2 other topics on this on the first page.
Additionally if you can't figure out the pros and cons yourself then I don't know what to tell you.

Get the Spigen ultra clear from Amazon. Picked it up for$13 came with three. Absolutely love it. It doesn't even feel like a protector is on. I have to make sure it doesn't peel off in my pocket haha. But it is very adhesive. Good luck

Not having a screen protector is like having sex with a random woman without a condom.
Because yeah it feels a lot better but you never know if you the one unlucky enough to get messed up.

I thought I'd sit a screen protector out on this phone, and did for about a month..
Then I started noticing micro-marring.
*sigh*
Back to a protector for me.
Pro's and Con's for installing a screen protector... You are kidding right? Its install, unless you want a scratched up dirty nasty screen. :banghead:

S3 here and I can say my screen is "virgin" LOL. I don't even touched after I got it out of the box, I just removed that factory screen protector and applied the other one, not because of scratches possibility but to avoid the fingerprints (and make me clean it before applying the screen protector). Gorilla glass, but still...As in the post above me... The protector is a condom. Even if you know that the girls isn't in her fertile period, it's still safer to use a condom, right?

Just a quick question I would like to know about other note 2 owners..that being are any of yall not using a screen protector? If not are there any scratches on your screen?

Since Gorilla glass came out, I will never use a screen protector again. For my needs it's scratch resistant enough and I really love the screen on these phones. I hate the idea of covering them up to "preserve" them, then trade/sell it and not get to enjoy it as much hah.
That's my opinion on it. I had ET4G for over a year and no real scratches and no screen protector. I will do the same with my Note 2. I keep my phone in my pocket.
I have the cheap sprint clear one on mines. Don't mind it much. This phone is so large that I just don't want to baby it. I have to be very careful with everything in my pocket.
This is coming from a guy whose past three devices were naked without a single mark on them.

I have a cheap ebay one on mine. I dont want to take any chances.
will be soon. i like anti-glare ones, though. great for keeping of fingerprints.
I dont really like the anti glare one cause it takes away the clarity of the 720 hd display imo..but I just noticed that my s pen is scratching my screen protecting pretty badly lol ...
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
I think the anti-glare ones make the s pen not work right.
I installed the Zagg HD screen protector on my new Note 2 yesterday, and I will tell you it should not have been cleared for use with the Note 2. It is so soft that it feels like it's ribbed from using swype with the S-Pen... and I don't press hard at all. What's worse, it's effecting the accuracy of the S-Pen itself, as I find I need to press harder. I would not recommend this screen protector for use with our amazing device. Really looking like I might have to go naked unless I can find a very S-Pen friendly protector!
PS
Best Buy Mobile offered to exchange the protector for me and install it tomorrow, an offer which I am going to accept and deal with until I find the best alternative.
I have the extreme guard $4 body and screen. Everything works flawless.

I just bought a 2 dollar splastic screen guard for the time being until SGP releases their glass protector for the phone... the plastic screen goes well with the s pen... I have the flip cover so no scratches on my end

I made the mistake of believing the saleslady at Best Buy Mobile that the new Zagg HD was just fine with the S-Pen... first mistake. I have a Rearth screen protector waiting for me at home once I return from this business trip... but ya, I am looking forward to the upcoming Glas protector as well. Any word on it's release date?
I was on the same boat I bought the rubber screen.. shouldve posted a warning but got lazy :/
And I asked sgp and all they said so far was that it was a wip... and blah blahs
The glass protector is the best doe cause it feels as it were naked <3
But ill make a thread when I hear about the protector

I'm using the zagg smudge proof protector from best buy and it is not rubbery, doesn't dent or scratch and is true full screen. So far I'm extremely happy with it. Your fingers slide across the screen better with it than naked also there's no orange peel effect either.
If anyone is interested IMHO this is the best zagg to put on.

I don't see a smudge proof version on the zagg website, do you have a link? Just checked out Best Buy tonight, they didn't have any either.

Yes, I'll find it and post back. It's the best screen protector I've used, and I normally don't like zagg for the orange peel and rubbery feeling.

So I was wondering if Amy of you use this phone with no screen protector and how the screen looks after x amount of time with normal use?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
I have had my phone for about 8 months and never had a screen protector on it.. I can't detect one single scratch..
Same here. I don't like screen protectors. I've had this phone 7-12 months now and while my silver rim has scuffs on it, my screen is immaculate. No hairline scratches. It's absolutely mint. I have an OCD with my device screens though. There's always an LCD screen cleaner and microfiber cloth within arms reach of me. I really, really hate dirty mucked up screens lol

Everyone enjoys not having a screen protector..
Until they drop their phone and it gets scratched
I always use one. They cost 3 dollars on ebay for 6 with free shipping. Its worthed
I dropped my phone plenty...
No screen scratches, bezel is all torn up though.

same here, ive had mine just about a year now. the bezel has some nicks in it.. but even a screen protector wont prevent that. I even ditched my case after about a week or so.. its much less bulky then
Yea my silver part is wearing down a little from the case I'm using. I've been debating not using a screen protector. I have one left, i just get tired of them scratching up and dulling the screen. Then on look at my kindle (I know it has gorrila glass) with no case or screen protection and its amazingly clean. And clear. I'm always on the fence about it

I have used screen protectors before for this phone and been without for a while too. And to tell you the truth only when I have a screen protector you can see scratches from everyday use and from my jeans pockets. And when its without I dont see one single scratch
Not bad
I used mine for about a month without a screen protector. I just got Zagg, and I like the feel a lot better.

I've had my Hercules without a protector for near a year. The screen is pristine, no scratches! I love the glass used on this phone. It can get oily but nothing a microfiber cloth can't wipe clean.
I've had the phone since February with no screen protector. Finally dropped it 2 weeks ago, went skidding face down about 3 feet across an asphalt lot. The bezel is scratched up pretty good, but the glass has no scratches at all.
I generally don't use a screen protector but with this phone I decided to. My HTC Glacier I didn't use one and after a year it had no scratches. The reason I did use one with this phone is to retain its value so I can resell and get a better phone when I get sick of it.
Sand scratches the glass so don't think its 100% safe to go without one.
I just put my last screen protector on here. I got a hair scratch down where the hardware keys are. I used to use those cut to fit ones and they would never cover those buttons. Now the one I have is fitted. I probably won't buy any more

I have had mine for 9 or 10 months and the screen looks great, my bezel was dented and such so I tapped of my screen, took a dremel to it and took off the outer coating, now I have an all white s2 with a matte black bezel, with an awesome screen... Pretty bad ass
