Anyone know of any skin protectors like invisishield - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I have the sprint kickstand case currently and I actually like it a lot. But I think invisishield or some other full body skin protector would compliment it quite nicely. Any available for us yet
Tapatalkin' it from my Epic Touch 3g

Is this what you are looking for?

Personally I like the Boxwave screen protectors. They have them today, both the Clear and Anti-glare up today. I ordered the Clear.

Has anyone ever heard of GHOST ARMOR. it has been mentioned on XDA on other phone models for a long time now. I got it for my Touch Pro 2 based off peoples reviews here on XDA and was an amazing choice. I was happy with it. It was so clear compared to the Invisible shield versions I saw around that time.
http://www.ghost-armor.com/Samsung/Galaxy_S_II,_Epic_4G_Touch_%28Sprint%29.html
I am thinking about getting it again this time for my E4GT. Since these new phones have gotten Textured battery doors its hard to have FULL BODY protection on them. The Zagg Invisible shield full body varient looks like you cant even take your battery cover off with out having to peel the whole back side off every time you take your battery out. NOT GOOD.
Now don't expect any of these brands lasting for every as far as them staying 100% attached to your phones surface. They will eventually peel off slowly until you have to remove them. My Touch Pro 2 lasted over 1 year and a few months before it started peeling, then again I applied it myself so I may not have done it the right way. but be forwarned I believe ANY BRAND doesnt matter will eventually peel off.

this is cheap and good

Ghost armor is good stuff. I've used it on my Evo 4g. Lifetime warranty, only downside when compared to bodyguardz is that it only includes one set in the box, bodyguardz gives you two. Personally, I thought the quality of the ghost armor was better than the bodyguardz.

i bought the one from verizon. its 3 pack glossy screen protector.
I'd like to find a screen protector that tones down the gloss a little bit.
Is the pack from Verizon like the Droid version (the Verizon branded ones)? Those were about $10 cheaper than the ones at Best Buy, and work a lot better, too.
The ones that Verizon carries are typically the plastic stuff for anti-glare/gloss. Best Buy only carries invisible shields
Anybody recommend one that gives a nice matte finish?

Anyone tried a ZAGG invisibleshield or their competitor Skinomi TechSkin? They are both that propeller rubber. I think I am going to order a skinomi because this screen is bull****. It attracts way too many fingerprings and just lookss disgusting when the screen is off. I wash my hand regularly and it makes me feel dirty
The reason I'm choosing skinomi is that I had a zagg on my HTC EVO, and like many people I tossed it in the bin after a week when the tackiness became intolerable.

Agreed. I had the same issue on my phone and got the Invisible Shield and that made a huge difference. Ordered the same for my Xoom, full body, which I hope will have the same results.
I've also ordered a zagg invisible shield, but just the screen protector. I've had good experiences with the Invisible Shield on my devices (G1, N1, N2, iPad) and expect the product to work well on the Xoom, too.
I do still keep a microfiber cloth around to wipe off the scrud that does inevitably accumulate.
This might be a matter of taste but Zagg skins makes the screen look horrible. Its got like an orange tint to it. I only use the full body skin with some other superclear screen protector. Also invisheild gots like little groves, its not 100% flat.
I got it on my Nexus S and its looks like crap.

This is great to hear. I love what they put out. They are the only protectors buy. If you put them on corectly you will not even know you have it on.
I used the code and ordered just the screen protector, thanks very much. I love the Invisible Shield on my Nexus One, I hope this compares in quality
Anyone have experience with the Skinomi skins? I've been a big fan of bestskinsever but they don't have one out for the Xoom yet. Much prefer theirs over Zagg. Might consider trying the Skinomi, can anyone recommend them?
I got the Skinomi skin on my incredible and I couldn't believe it. I'll never use those cheap verizon ones again. If it gets scratched it "heals" itself somehow. If you dig your fingernail in it you can feel it give almost like a hard rubber. But when you slide your fingers across the screen it's smooth. I just ordered one for my xoom.
The installation was scary at first because it's a very wet process. You have to get the screen, your fingers, and the protector wet and then wait for it to dry for a few hours. I was scared at first but my incredible doesn't have a scratch and I've had it for 9 months now. I didn't hesitate dropping the $15 to get the xoom protection. No yellowing, it sticks well, and has a lifetime warranty. I highly recommend it.

Thanks for the info on the Skinomi. Think I'll give it a shot...just need to decide whether I want just the screen protector or go with the full body or carbon fiber options. Typically I just get a screen protector...but the back of the Xoom seems like pretty scratch-able.

Zagg InvisibleShield for EVO

So I bought the InvisibleShield for my EVO (I'm guessing about a month and a half ago) and it get's realllllyyyyyy dirty looking with usage. I'm also not too fond of the way sliding my fingers over the screen feels, I think it's taking away from the touch screen experience of the phone? Is there any way to clean it so that it looks like a regular screen again and not some clouded screen protector? I almost want to take it off but I paid 15 bucks for it and that would go down the drain
They will get brownish over time man. I thought zagg was the bees knees but they're really not. I ended up going through 2 of them both full body shields I spend about 27 bucks a piece on lol. First one I peeled off because I got anoyed just like you are, second one I pulled because the touchscreen just wasn't smooth anymore. What a waste of money right? I don't like that the zagg makes the screen less responsive so I've learned to rock a naked screen. No case no protection just bare naked phone. But you're correct I definitely agree on it making screen less responsive. There is no way to clean it or at least I don't think so. I will never use one again.

Just get rid of it. I've rocked my evo sans screen protector for since December and I've not no scratches on it.
I bought one and returned it the same day after install it. I thought it was crap. It made the screen feel rubbery.
I just have a Seidio case on it and that's it. Not a single scratch since release day.
Yeah I feel like I'm going to have to ditch it here pretty soon. I thought this protector was the best. It may be the best at protecting the screen but it ruins the experience of the phone.

I know I said I would never buy again; well I bought 1 2 weeks ago for my MacBook pro (80 bucks full body) and its already black/brown. I definitely will never buy zagg again lol. The evos screen is coated so it wont scratch just sitting in your pocket. It will take alot to scratch it. Naked screen is the best.

I have thought about taking mine off....only have screen but I am just too paranoid about the screen
Well I bought my evo 2 days after it came out, and up until 2 months ago, I never used a screen protector and the screen never had one scratch on it (and I kept it in my pocket with nothing else in the pocket.) My original screen suffered from the "B" spot and I eventually got a Sprint repair store to replace it for me (after trying 2 other Sprint repair stores.) Since I received a brand new screen from HTC I wanted to make sure it was protected, but judging by what others are saying now, it seems like I don't even need a screen protector.

sounds like you got some greasy @$$ hands. stop eating chicken and such.
EDIT:: I have had a screen protector on my phone for 335 days. The first one I had ended up folding up in a corner due to my own behavior, and I got one the same day bc of how clean my phone looked when I took the original invisible shield off. (i showed no mercy on my phone, it has been dropped, put in back pocket and sat on, put in the same pockey as keys/needles (j/k), and even tested the effectivness of it on the old protector (keys to the screen like a b!t(h)
It's not turning brown or anything, its just blurry and it gets dirt sports on it and then I have to rub really hard to get them out, it just looks dirty overall, like spots all over it. And on a white screen you can see all the streaks from where I slide my finger to unlock it, scroll, etc.
I had a Zagg also but didn't like it for the same reasons as you. I now use an HTC screen protector I got at Radio Shack. Its a little pricey but its still in almost new condition and I do dusty construction work for a living. ( I use it in conjunction with a seidio ext. rugged).

I just did the same thing with my xoom. I had the thing on there for less than 24 hours, just couldn't stand it
Zagg shields are tough as **** but they take too much away from the experience of using the device. And now that OEMs are making screens out of magic scratch proof glass the shields are unnecessary, imo.
I actually took mine off and the screen feels wonderful....just hope I don't scratch it...even if I do I have a backup and insurance I guess
All of those type of protectors will feel different than the screen. The best one I have used was the bodyguardz. It didn't have the orange peel feel to it. And they have them in dry apply now so no more liquid on your phone.

Lol there 15 dollars here and they only cover the middle of your screen. The one's he is talking about cover the whole screen there da bomb.
These are some of the best screen protectors I've found and they are less than 50 cents a piece.

Ghost armor has been pretty good actually. It's smooth and all. The fingerprints don't come off as easy as when I has no protector. It also scratches easy (but they go away). I had a couple of small scratches here and there on my screen, it filled them in, can't see any of them. The shield is getting kind of gunky around the edges though.
Kind of a toss up...I think I like the idea of applying a Ghost Shield after you've dinged up your screen from mishandling it in your pocket for 5-6 months. Makes it look cleaner, and doesn't feel too bad IMHO.

[Q] Anyone have a Steinheil screen protector?

Has anyone gotten one of the Steinheil screen protectors for their epic 4g touch?
http://www.sgpstore.com/cell-phone/...sprint-screen-protector-steinheil-series.html
Is it any good? Worth the $14?
I have one, i got the ultra fine version. I love it, easy to apply and feels good.
Going to place my order now! I kind of miss the glass like feel of the screens (coming from Ghost Armor & BodyGuardz).
I placed my order last week, It is the only brand of screen protector I use on any of my devices, their product I think is the best, Im hoping it arrives today.
I ordered the Ultra Crystal
Can anyone post pictures of their Steinheil screen protector? I am considering getting one, since the Skinomi one I got was complete garbage. How is the application process? Any issues with bubbles? And how is the feel, how does it compare to a naked screen?
Thanks.
Awesome, I was hoping they'd make one for the Touch. Ordering now.
I've been using the ultra crystal on my Evo 4G for a year now, and it has very few signs of wear. Ordered for the E4GT!
Anyone use these with a case? Specifically the TGU case? I know that sometimes cases can create bubbles around the edges, etc.
I placed an order for the Ultra Fine version last week, I'm hoping I get it soon! I have used Realook brand protectors in the past and was very satisfied with them, from what I understand these SGP protectors are very similar, can't wait to get it on my SGS2, don't want to scratch it
They are the best along with Power Support. I've used them for 4 phones and have nothing but good things to say. Great quality, long lasting, and easy to apply. Warning for the super amoled plus screen fans, if you order the ultra fine matte anti-fingerprint it will lower brightness and screen quality somewhat.
I have the Ultra Clear one on mine, with a TPU case. No issues with bubbling. They look and feel great. I was about to go with PowerSupport, but I didn't like the matte one I got for them. It really didn't help the retina screen on my iPod Touch.
I spent two hours contemplating between the ortho and the crystal screen protector. Decided to go with the crystal, since I don't want anything holding the super amoled plus screen.
Well Mine arrived a couple of days ago, I forgot to post that I got it, like I said before this are my favorite and the only screen protectors I buy (unless they have not released for the model Im looking for) and like on all the other devices I've had the fit is perfect and the feel on the touch is amazing (crystal model here).
The fit around the edges is awesome theres even barely any room between the housing and the actual screen. It goes almost exactly to the edge on every single corner of the device.
I would recommend this to anyone looking for a high quality screen protector.
Thanks for the update! I'm actually looking at the mail man outside right now.. hopefully mine comes today!
Sweet hope you get it, and let me know what you think.

Its all up to you and our taste I guess, I have the ultra crystal and those are the only ones I always buy, they actually feel better than the naked screen (no joke) It does make it feel like fine glass I have no issues with fingerprints or oily feeling that does not feel normal.

What screen protector?

That's the response I always get. I have the Realook screen protector, I think you can only get it from Amazon.
I've been very happy with Ghost Armor.
I like Seidio's Ultimate Screen Guard.
HTC EVO 4G screen protector
This is where i ordered my screen protector, much cheaper than local shops. crystal and just like you never use a protector on your screen.
I forgot the name brand, but I have a privacy protector. Not because I want to conceal my privacy but because most privacy protectors offer the thickest of SP's!
100% recommend Zagg.
Great protection, dosn't smudge, and lifetime warrenty. I have sent mine back twice now (first time was because I managed to get dirty under it, 2nd because I shattered my screen) and I get a brand new set. Peel it off send it back, done.
Hey,
I agree zagg all day every day! Their protectors are cheap thin, the feel is amazing, they protect from scratches and you can beat them up but it keeps your screen safe! they are easy to apply with solution, and best part when you want a new one just pay a few bucks for shipping send them back the old one and its free!
this video says all! hope i helped!
youtube.com/watch?v=wg-zFX8ZoG0
Zagg is by far the best imho
I had ZAGG on mine for several months. It worked great. I took it off because I didn't like the feeling of it compared to the "glass" feel. I've had it off for a couple months and still no scratches and I like the phone a lot better without it.
I just tried the new anti-glare version from zagg, it was horrible!!! It was like looking through crystallized glass, especially when there was white background. I went back to the original zagg and love it.
I use the one that came with my OtterBox. I thought I was going to hate it but rarely even notice its there any more.
Clarivue. Can barely tell the difference between it and the glass. Just bought my gf some generic ones off Amazon for her shift and the quality was really good for a quarter of the price. Don't think I'll be buying the name brand versions anymore but if I did I'd go with clarivue.

I also use the one that came with my Otterbox case. Before that I also used Invisashield(Spellcheck ).
The touch screen is more prone to breaking from pressure or impact then from scratching.
yess finished my fiends...
I have to say Zagg is the best. For one, if you have them (or someone like best buy mobile install it) both the screen protector and the installation have a lifetime warranty. Meaning if your screen starts to peel off, take it back to Zagg get a new one free, and get the new one put on for free!
i dont like screen protectors and cases and mi phone is perfect but depends how you use it
i've used an the otterbox one for a bit and then a zagg when that wore off but now i have SGP STEINHEIL anti fingerprint one. i didnt really care bout the fingerprint part but liked that it was slightly matte so its wayyy easier to see with sunglasses on
I'm using the one that I came with the otterbox. It has been on since September, with heavy use/abuse. Its just barely starting to peel at the corners.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Zagg since launch day. Has a couple of pretty decent "marks", but when the screen is on you cannot even notice it. It is the only protection that I use. No peeling so far.
-Art
Zagg! You cant beat the warranty if something does happen to it. If you can find a kiosk let them install it. Its the only thing I will let someone else work on my phone.

zagg or not?

So Ive used zagg since I had an iPhone, a Galaxy S3 and now when I get the Nexus, I would like to apply a screen protector to that as well.
Should I just go with the Zagg or this:

depending on how you carry your phone around i think your way more likely to shatter your screen then scratch it. I kept my s2 in my pocket and never had a screen protector. after 2 years the screen still has no scratches.

I am way more likely to shatter the screen than scratch it, yes. Also it is very important to me to not feel anything on the screen and that the case will be as invisible as possible.

So Ive used zagg since I had an iPhone, a Galaxy S3 and now when I get the Nexus, I would like to apply a screen protector to that as well.
Should I just go with the Zagg or this:

Mine will be arriving next week. I have always used them. I am sure there are cheaper alternatives but I have never had a problem and don't like change.

I couldn't find any pictures on their site, do they have cutouts for everything?
Dont get a Zagg, they almost always orangepeel and are overpriced. Check out Spigen screen protectors, they have some of the best screen protectors i have ever used. I got got one for my Nexus 5 and cant even tell there is on on my screen. You can get a 3 pack from them for less than 1 Zagg

The invisibleshield never had an orangepeel effect. I think that feel belongs to the older versions of Zagg.
Anyway, from my experience I went with Zagg. Just bought the screen protector. If I won't like it I can always ask for a refund, their customer service is amazing. Also, if anything peels off or the installation isn't going smooth they can always replace my screen protector for free.
If I won't like it I'll go with the glas.tr by spigen.
Thanks everyone.
I have a zagg invishield on day of purchase cracking protected action and covers well. I applied and left the phone for 24 hours . I have some spigen too and there now just sat in the box lol.

Why not just get a screen protector from xtremeguard for under $2
I cannot stand the sticky/gummy feel of Zaggs. For that type of protection, I go with Clearplex. Right now, I have a not-quite-faulty Spigen glas.TR on mine while I wait on the replacement Nano glas to come in.
Never really like Zagg, there more pro apple imo. But thats not the reason I dont like them...I hate the orange peal looking and sticky texture I get from there screen protectors!
Ordered a Zagg. They have always done fine by me.

There are cutouts in the picture for the speaker, prox sensor. Although rumor has it that the 3 pack on amazon by Spigen for $15 its just like a flat deal with no cutouts and works fine. Go with what you trust and what you think is right and will work for you.
I don't like Zagg. I used Invisishield on a lumia800 and it had horrendous amounts of orange peel. Also, I was not a fan of the feel because it didn't feel smooth. They are not very forgiving if you are not good at applying them correctly the first time. I RMA'd one because it got some scratch on it and while they did send me the replacement, they said they never received my original protector and charged me the amount for a new invisishield. It's their fault for not providing me with a tracking number on their return packaging that it got lost. I've used dry application screen protectors since and they are visually better looking as well as they feel better.
I find Zaggs texture to be... Weird. I'd go for Skinomi. Smooth and doesn't have the orange peel effect that most wet application screen protectors have

I got Spigen Protector Steinheil. My first time using. Cheap and I'm more than happy with it

If I play games on my phone, I can't use a Zagg. The sticky gummieness doesn't let my finger slide on the screen, it's tries to skip across instead.
Zagg is garbage in my opinion. I never had one I kept on more than a few days. I in general don't like screen protectors. If I did use one though the only company I liked was clear-coat.

My only complaint about zagg (and most wet application screen protectors) is that over time, if you were jeans, the screen protector will turn blue. It's easier to notice on a phone with a white front, but it sucks to know that it's happening nevertheless. Be prepared for that if you plan to invest in one of these.
