Best screen protector to buy in UK??? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi,
I want to buy a good screen protector for my Gnex. I was looking for XOskin but its not available in UK i guess. I would prefer a good screen protector off ebay too as it would save costs alot.
So kindly suggest me which screen protector you are using and bought from UK.
Thanks

Their site looks like they ship worldwide. sprintxo seems to be the best code floating around right now for 30% off

XOSkin definitely ships to the UK- I got one in the Netherlands with no problem- and shipping was only a couple of Euro, not anything to get worked up over. Definitely worth it.

Thanks...will have a look at it

Thanks for the tip mate!

Just ordered mine $2.85 to Ireland
2.85$ shipped to Poland, that's awesome!
So...did anyone try them out already? Are they any good?
Ordered two to Finland, 2,85 shipping. Wonder how long it takes to ship.
I have one on my nexus one. It certainly beats having a crystal gel case on instead, in terms of thickness. With this kinda shields, you can rest your phone on any surface without worrying about scratches or anything of the like. They last a long while if you have applied them properly. You have to clean the surface of your phone with soap first before applying. The plastic is thin but very heavy duty and flexible. It has the right amount of adhesive so that it won't damage the phone and also very difficult to take off without intention.
To sum up, I wanted something to keep my phone safe from scratches so I got this. If applied correctly, it can lost for a while and won't come off when you slide it back in forth into your pocket (unlike some screen protectors).
If you're really worried about the disbenefit of physical stress, you can always put a case over the phone with the invisible shield on since it's thin enough.
Wow thanks
Thanks for letting me know about this freebie ... just great
thnx for the info, BTW does anybody know where to get that solution that spray on the on hands to avoid fingertips?
Thanks! Nothing beats a protector that costs $2.85!
Orderd also one, but i have my doubts. What about every country has the same cost of shipping ???

"Free" Stealth Guard Full Body Cover (Only pay S&H)

I saw a thread in the marketplace section of the forum for free Stealth Guard body covers. So I checked out the Stealth Guard website and they are indeed selling free body covers (you only pay the shipping) I picked one up for my Captivate and paid only $2.89!
I thought I'd post it here because I think this is a really good deal. **Mod Edit - Advertising Links Removed**
And I found on Android Forums a review comparing Zagg and Phantom Skinz and Stealth Guard in pretty good detail: http://androidforums.com/motorola-d...ector-reviews-zagg-vs-phantom-vs-stealth.html
Thanks for the share. Just ordered mine and it did notify me that it'll send a tracking number to my email.
It is not really free - it is $2.85 with free shipping. A second set is $2. This will cost them $0.49 to ship in US via first class mail.
If you want to cover your phone in clear vinyl, it is probably a decent product - as good as the others, but no special deal is coming anyones way.

Seems like a great deal to me for that price.
Meh... I have never been a fan of the full body clear protection because the corners (what'll get done in the most) are still left open.

That's what I'm thinking... A full body cover for less than $3? That's a steal to me, especially since skins like Zagg cost around $20.
The thread in the marketplace about this offer seems to be gone now, but I read success stories of people buying four for about $11 and some change and I haven't really heard anything negative about these covers (I've heard the occasional THESES SUCK but like 1% of the time). I might pick up a few more.
The only bad thing i've read, now that i think about it, is that it doesn't come with any solution to spray on
I just ordered 2 for $4.85 shipped.
I like skins because you can put them on the phone underneath a snap-on cover and it protects the phone from the stuff that gets inside the cover and scratches the device.
Just ordered mine. I read that the screen protector (which is all I'll be using) is high quality and has a smooth glide to it. Thanks for the post!
So i've been reading around about these Stealth Guard shields and I have found quite a few more 'these are crap' posts. From what I've read, as a body case don't expect much, but as a screen cover, it's awesome.
When I get mine I'll post a review of what I think of it as a screen protector.
I bought a set for my Wife's iPhone before they were available for the Captivate. It's okay on the iPhone, it didn't fit very well, but for $3 it's worth it. I also bought one for my neighbors Droid. No word on if he installed it yet.

Did you use any liquid solution when you installed the screen protector or anything else?
Thanks a TON! After dealing with the Zagg, I'll gladly try this out.
Thank for sharing !!! I just ordered one

Not Received
I ordered last week. Have not received mine yet.
How long does it take?
Ordered a couple of these as well. I'm currently using a skinomi screen protector, and I don't think I'm taking it off. But I wanted to check out the rest of the cover. For the price dont' think I can really go wrong.

[Q] Skinomi or Zagg screen protector?

As stated in the object, based on your experience which one would you suggest me for this beautiful phone?
Thank you..
Never used Skinomi but zagg is pretty good, used it on my atrix
Never liked zagg, it turns yellow and grungy. I have had them replace it a few times but it sucks that I need to pay shipping on a warranty.
Ive used neither. I have ordered a skinomi in anticipation of getti g my nexus hopefully in the next couple of weeks.

Oh forgot to mention, i usually order a bunch of el cheapos from hong kong. Premium protectors usually do last longer, but if you find some decent cheap ones it can be more economical. I usually get 5 for $4 shipped from hk, and the skinomi i just ordered was $6 for one. Usually 2 or 3 premium ones are $10-$15. Doing the math and usually changing protectors about every 6 weeks id rather buy 10 from hk and that will last the life of the phone.

I've always been a big fan of ZAGG protectors. I have them on most of my devices. They can be a REAL pain to apply, but once you get the hang of it, it's not so bad. I've never had a problem with them. I did screw up an installation once.. was a bit too aggressive with the squeegee, left a bunch of marks, but they were nice enough to ship me a free replacement
This time, I'm trying Skinomi. Mainly because ZAGG now charges a ridiculous shipping fee for Canada ($17 on a 12$ protector!!). Whereas Skinomi ships for free to Canada.
Anyways whichever you decide, here are some lovely coupon codes
skinomi: get25 (25% off)
zagg: youmobile (cant remember but it was 3$ off my order)
I ordered a Zagg. Also have one on my Vibrant and I'm used to it. Very durable and wipes clean since it does collect smudges easily. Replacement warranty is good, too.
If you're in the states, verizon sells a 3pack of pretty decent screen protectors. I picked mine up at a local store.

never buy accessories from a verizon store. they rip u off.
Waiting for the martin fields screen and camera protector. Should be available shortly after the galaxy nexus gets released in Asia (whenever that may be).
My friend has it on his S2 and I didn't even realize it was on.

I always use Zagg on all my electronics. JSYK www.zagg.com is running 50% off today and tomorrow site wide and free shipping for orders over $29.99. I got my GN and full body MacBook Air shiel for $34.99 shipped.
I was using Zagg Invisibleshield in my last 2 devides (Nokia E61 and currently the Nexus).
However, I bought the LG Nexus 4 yesterday, and I wanted to buy the Hi-Def Insisible Shield (not available yet to Nexus 4).
Because of that, I will try a different protection and buy the Skinomi for a change (front and back cover).

Tested zagg before. Lasted less than a month. Hate the feel, hate the orange peel, hate the yellowish color. Bought skinomi and everything was better

I bought a zagg screen protector at radioshack last week for $4.50 and it looks really nice on the phone
I really like XO protectors. And If you want more economical packaging and save some money you can get a skin from bestskinsever.com. 2.95 shipping in the US

I will never buy anything other than Skinomi protectors anymore. They are really easy to set properly and the protection is great. I've used them on 3 Android phones, all from different manufacturers and they work amazingly.
Never tried Zagg since I started using Skinomi first.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I have an extra skinomi screen protector, with the entire package. I can send it to you for free if you just pay for the shipping.
I don't really like the rubber feel that comes with skinomi/zagg protectors, although it offers probably the maximum amount of protection you can get with screen protectors
I can definitely vouch for skinomi. i've had it for my last two phones, and i don't think id get any other brand. one think that i didn't even realize i appreciated about their protectors after buying an alternate brand is that they make the screen look really nice. they don't take away or interfere with the color at all. very appreciated. got another brand of screen protector when i first got my gn, and its like it put a matte finish on my screen.
i do swear that next time, if i can find someone to put my screen protector on, i will pay them to do it. i am terrible at it apparently. i have tried ALL the tricks. steam.... steam... you name it.
there was a tiny tiny speck of dust that made a little bubble on the screen, and my skinomi was on a bit crooked and it kept creating bubbles in the corners where my case overlapped. it drove me insane, so i just took it off.
i go commando now. screen looks awesome BTW.

The offer was for 3 or more items but the code 830ff3 is not working anymore. can't go wrong with the 60% off and free shipping.

Yeah, but I'm not quite convinced if I really want to try the skin. Never used a skin before. But on the other side, how bad can an investment of 4€ be?
just ordered me 2 full body ones, cant really moan at £3.50ish ago.
Hope they work
I recall some people complaining that these screen protectors / full body skins didn't fit their devices. (Holes not lining up, a tad too large, etc. etc.) Price looks good to be worth a shot, though. People say these are more rubbery than not.
For anyone looking to pick up anything from here, I just used at (7:50AM 03/20/13) a "75OFF" code to buy 2 of the full body skins for the upcoming One (in the US) and a screen protector for my TF300T for ~$9. Hoping that these skins give a glass like feel instead of the rubbery texture.

surely these will look absolutely terrible on the One?
the one has a matte finish and these will stick out like a sore thumb everywhere except the screen
Just ordered 2 of them £3.50 bargain for fully body protection they have to be nice and clear I think I used them on a s3 mini and they were very good I too normally use bestskinsever but let's see how these pan out I used 75OFF code
Update as soon as anyone gets theirs please try to give a quick review or post pics here thanks.
Coupon Code: 82off2
Fret not, I just ordered 4 full body protection sets (don't even know if I'll be getting the One tho, but for $7.20, I don't care..).
Coupon code: 82off2 will save you 82% if you order more than one =]
$7 is $7. I have lunch for $7. Protecting a beautiful phone for $7 is pretty great imho.
p.s. yep, if I do end up with the One, more power for me, otherwise I'll sell these on a classifieds site for $2-$5 each, and still make a profit =]
EDIT*:
You can still take advantage of the 83% off 3 items or more. Problem was with the code name given earlier.
Code given was: 830ff3, ACTUAL code is: 83off3
Your welcome =] Could have saved myself $0.50, paid w/ paypal and can no longer edit order.
Whatever, life moves on =]
Just ordered 2 (code 82off2) of these myself (full protection) can't go wrong for $3.60 (£2.38!!)
Thanks for the heads up OP.:good:
just ordered a full body one for myself...w00t, if only ordering the phone was that easy =P
Thanks, just ordered 2 screen protectors (I don't need a full body protector since im going to use a case anyway) for 1.8$. Thanks for posting this.
Thanks to OP!
Just ordered a couple of full body protectors. If they dont look to good then hey, its only about £2.45 loss. I paid more than that for screen protectors alone!
Apparently they are just as good as bestskinsever.
Which are good?
Seriously good luck to everyone with this. I've used inivisi shield before on my Nexus One and was worried with the wet application even when the phone was pretty well sealed off. The One, has speaker grilles only stuck on the front so getting water in there you''re screwed lol Good luck though!

Yeah, I ordered a couple of accessories on Ebay too, A back case, a flip cover, and a tempered glass screen protector. Hopefully the 7a arrives before they do.
I ordered some slim premium cases for the phone and they actually came in about a week. The fit was a little of though, it seems like it was too small for the phone.
I also ordered the glass screen protector and it is awesome. Definitely worth the money.

Got the same issue here in the UK, cases I want are like £2-4 delivered from China, but someone has bought bulk in the UK and wants £9 for it, so they can go do one. I ordered a transparent one similar to the imak case from China a few weeks back so it'll be here soon. I'm just scared of taking the phone out of my pocket every day, waiting... patiently.

I ordered this from eBay. It's still not here yet and I ordered it on the 6th so I can't tell you what it's like.
I put on a tempered glass screen protector, tore off the one that they put on. They fitted extremely well but it's garbage, especially compared to the glass protector which now just looks and feels incredible.

Garbage = rubbish = not very good. The stock protector is not very good.
