These screen protectors are amazing. Even though I've had it on my phone for like 15 minutes, it doesn't attract any of the grease on my hands like on the RealLook screen protector and on the bare screen. The only real problem is how hard it is to take the screen protector if you have dust in it, like I do. It's extremely clear, if it wasn't for the dust that's stuck under the screen you wouldn' be able to tell that there's a screen protector on it.
What's your favorie screen protector?

I'm contemplating on Installing this ArmorSuit Screen Protector i have sitting here, I'm currently using a Privacy Screen Protector from ebay though and its great its just degrades the screen quality a lil.
Does it help with glare at all? Do you have any experience with the matte version? I had it on my Amaze by didn't like the feel on it. How does it feel when swiping it?

There is no glare on it never tried matte I don't like matte screen protectors. It doesn't feel like anything is on it. It is like your touching the screen without a screen protector on.
I have the Realook on and genuinely looks like nothings on there. I just hate how easy the oil gets on there. I thought SGP SP doesn't have the Oleophobic for our phone.

Oil gets on it... just not as much as the Reallook did. This screen protector looks much better than reallook to me. Reallook is SLIGHTLY thinner than this screen protector, but it still looks better to me.
I've had an SGP screen protector on my phone for a for a few months now and it's pretty awesome. I like it a lot more than those softer vinyl type screen protectors. it feels almost identical to the naked screen and will take a fair bit of abuse without scratching.

While I do like Swyping, I find that it becomes difficult as one's hands get a tiny bit sweaty or even dirty. You fingers seem to stick to the screen which makes Swyping fairly difficult and almost impossible to be accurate. While I do try to be as clean as possible, sometimes your hands get sweaty for whatever reasons such as if you wear gloves or keep them in your pockets for a while.
I am just wondering if there is a screen protector out there that allows for a totally smooth surface, despite any sweat, dirt or other things that could be on your fingers? I recently got the Realooks and while they are very clear and does a good job resembling the feeling of the bare screen, it has the same issues while Swyping. There may even be a little bit more of a finger resistance with the Realooks on.
I was thinking and thought that maybe a screen protector with a matte finish would be ideal for Swyping. Matte screen protectors are smooth and most are anti-fingerprint which I assume would be very good for Swyping.
Has anyone had any experience with a matte finish screen protector while Swyping?
Any suggestions overall?
i use an anti-glare screen protector from Clarivue (.com) that is matte finish and has a very smooth surface that makes using swype very comfortable and easy. I used clarivue on my N1 as well when i had swype, and i recently got the captivate and i couldnt live without the smooth surface from the screen protector so i had to buy another pack. it is anti scratch and anti smudge, although from what ive seen, it does affect the clarity of the amoled to a certain extent.
I use whatever screen protector that my AT&T store sold - works well with swype.
i have something similar to the invisashield body shield but i cant remember who made mine. i ordered off ebay an in came in an envelope with no branding. like someone with a laser etcher/cutter got a hold of the material and made it in his garage. it has the typical invisishield orange peel look but feels like it has natural oils in it. it is always very slick and doesn't show finger prints. it never feels greasy or sticky or dry. just slightly oily but i have heard that's not typical of the invisishield brand so it might not be the same material. if i come across the add ill post it.
also antiglare protectors are good for that but the ones i bought had bad adhesive on the edges, also i find that anti glare have a good amount of reflection to them and are only better than hard plastic protectors that can be milky, i can read through an invisishield in sunlight better than an anti glare and no screen protector at all is better than that.

Agreed.
Plus these screen protectors cover the entire front of the phone. Can't even tell it's on there. I've seen others that only cover the display area.

For $10 and you can go buy them locally, it was ideal. Seems to work just as well as without the protector.

Does anyone have this. I am currently looking to get a better screen protector than the one that I got from verizon and this looks like a good option.
So does anyone have any experience with this type of screen protector and any pros and cons about it?
Assuming you're getting this for anti-fingerprint purposes, the SGP Ultra fine will do you wonders. It does prevent fingerprints from getting on to the screen. However, it slightly compromises the display a little. You will see little artifacts from the light of the display going through the screen protector, since there are layers in there used for the anti-fingerprint.
Don't get this if you want ultra clear display, or if you don't care much about having fingerprints. If you want ultra clear, try their Ultra Crystal Clear.
I've been using it so far for about 2 weeks.. Amazing for anti-fingerprint purposes..
One of the best screen protectors I have ever had..
Definitely recommended..
I've had the ultra fine for about a week and so far it's great. The clarity of the screen is definitely compromised, but you don't notice it after a bit. One of the best things is your fingers don't drag/catch like they can on naked glass or crystal style protectors. It just sort of glides across the surface.
what do you guys think about the anti-glare on this screen protector?
I have ultra fine and i like it, but there is alot of glare outdoors, but it does its job, i see no fingerprints on the screen.
as Purgatoiry said you definitely slide across the screen with this screen guard.

huh, it is supposed to be anti glare...
Dunno what to say, because of the matte finish, when the sun is on it its hard to see.
just my 2c of course, and even with the glare, i still wont use any other screen protector.
Wouldn't use anything besides a Steinheil.

I had one of the earlier anti-fingerprint protectors on my incredible and I noticed the same thing. I think the problem is that the sunlight gets diffused in the screen which makes it hard to see through the glare.
Is the Crystal Clear smooth like the anti print one?

Crystal Clear is like glass. It's probably the best option if you want to protect your screen but want to make it feel like nothing is there. I have one on mine and people, who play with my phone, don't realize there's a protector on it until they see the seam for the protector.
Dear,
Can anyone recomend me a good screen protector because I have bought glossy one and I am not satisfied - to much reflection and fingers on screen.
Now, I am thinking about matte screen protector, can you give opinions about this one, I have heard that with this screen is not so sensitive, it is true?
Thank you regards

I've been using ZAGG screen protectors (wet application) with my devices and I've never gone back. They're glossy, but I can live with it because a wet application allows you to apply the screen protector flawlessly without any air bubbles every time.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24472222
I use ZAGG screen protectors as well. The wet application method really does work wonders to ensure there are no air bubbles or slip ups in the installation. The ZAGG screen protectors are also somewhat rubbery, so they actually PREVENT scratches, not just protect the screen in case they happen. Plus, if something does happen to them, you can just log on and request a warranty replacement for just the cost of shipping (~3.99) and receive a brand new one. I am thoroughly satisfied with ZAGG screen protectors and use them on ALL of my devices.

Not optics but i can vouch for ultra crystal clear
I had it on a different phone and I loved it. I will probably pick it up.
It actually saved my screen! That is why I will never have trouble recommending it.
Its a hard screen protector.
Something sharp it my screen with force, dead on center and I saw the entire thing shatter - spider cracks throughout it. I then took off the screen protector and the screen was UNTOUCHED! The screen protector took all the force! The spider cracks were throughout the steinheil screen protector! Since then they are my favourite brand.
You will see smudges on the screen and fingerprints, but thats just like the normal glass anyway. Its very smooth and very clear.

Spider cracks you mean? I wish i had taken a photo but it was a year ago. I closed the center console door on top of my phone and forgot it had two points that protrude to hold a pen. Those points jammed right into the screen of the phone and it looked like the screen had cracked, but it was actually only the screen protector.
I was very relieved.
The crystal does have a high hardness rating.

I tried out the ultra crystal while waiting for my replacement FlexHD. Ultra crystal is very nice, but prone to fingerprints. Also the cut does not cover the whole screen. Aside from the fingerprints, which are to be expected on a "clear" protector, this is a very nice one but the minimal cut is not to my taste.
I can post pics if anyone is curious.

It's a nice screen protector if you don't mind all the edges being uncovered.
I really prefer the fit of the FlexHD; I will be trying the replacement once SGP sends me it.

Thank you! I'm liking how that looks. Might go with that
Sorry im not very into this invisible shields things but i always heard about zagg, are these better than theirs ?
How well does this screen protector adhere to the screen?
I bought the Belkin Clear ScreenGuard protector for the SGS3 and the Belkin screen protector has started to "bubble" around the screen protector because of the curved nature of the SGS3 screen.
I have the XGear Fantom right now, so obviously that feels quite a lot like glass
Unfortunately, I have scratched it and I'm looking to replace it soon. I really don't feel like shelling out another $30 for a screen protector, so does anyone know of any screen protectors, wet or dry, that have a glass-like texture to them? For example, my HTC One X has the Zagg Invisible Shield HD on it. Unfortunately, they don't seem to offer the HD for the Galaxy Nexus. Despite its slight orange peel, the screen protector doesn't feel much different from unprotected glass, and I've grown quite accustomed to it.
Any screen protectors match this description? Preferably not the matte variety, because they tend to distort screen quality enough to bother me.

SGP Ultra Oleophobic but does not provide full coverage of the screen. I have not tried the SGP Flex (wet application) but from what I have read it sounds promising.

I have it -- it is not very glass like, in fact it may be the opposite. It is very soft, soft as in putting pressure on it using your fingernail leaves a dent on it. Granted, it heals itself very fast, but there's one dent I had that wouldn't heal. Good thing the Flex comes with 2 protectors in the package, I'm using that extra now. The great thing about it is that it does cover the whole front.
For glass feel get a tempered glass protector...
But I have An anti fingerprint protector on mine.. and as much as I hate the feel and the way it makes the screen look. I don't miss those smudges...
I got one of these and it's the best screen protector I've ever used. It's got a little most friction than glass, but it's glossy smooth and is way easier to keep clean than the screen itself was. Directions say to let it set for 12-24 hours after installation though.
