Not for sale yet!
Hopefully this sells before my 30 day return window is up for the Seidio Innocase that I just bought. Otterbox FTW!
Nice, thanks for posting! I've been waiting for this one.
I knew there was a reason I didn't buy a case yet
What's funny is that they probably got sick of all the emails asking if they were making one for the Captivate so they posted the update just to shut us up!
Nice! Can't wait to get this

Woot! Been waiting, like everyone else, and now my dreams have been answered. Now, if only they start selling this, say tomorrow...!
What do you guys think about the lower priced one? I think it looks pretty sweet. Not to bulky.

im stuck with the body glove right now...
im ordering the commuter as soon as its available! it looks gooooooood.
Do these cases have a built in screen protector?
I'm pretty sure if its the same as other otterboxes the commuter comes with a separate screen protector, the defender has it built in to the case
Cool thx for the response. I really hate trying to get those screen protectors on. They never go on right so I guess I'll have to go with the defender. Thanks again!
beware though you may run into a crazy amount of air bubble issues if you use the defender with no screen protector or the wrong one. I tried the defender on my girlfriends iphone4 over an invisible shield and it was horrible. anyone have experience with this? finding the right combination?
dont use invissheld with otterbox

Well damn, that's why I hate screen protectors because i almost always get air bubbles. I guess the built in screen protector is not the solution.
just get one that is anti-fingerprint anti-glare and it will work just fine with the otterbox defender
UPDATE: SGP has sent me a new FlexHD for free, so I will be trying it when I receive it. I am actually very impressed with their quick response!
I just got one and it has a horrible rainbowing effect. The bubbles are also seeming to be impossible to get out.
I've read that the rainbow dots will disappear after it has dried, but it has been a few hours and I see no improvement at all.
Should I try removing it and putting it back on? Or is it too late for that?
I'm surprised because I have had good experiences with SGP protectors on my SGS2.

Yeah, everything about it is fine besides the rainbow ****.
And no.. hasn't improved a single bit. It seems like a defect in manufacturing. I'm going to file a complaint with SGP.

Odd. I ordered their Ultra Optics version, not FlexHD, which they said would be available from June 4. Had an email Friday "Hello, thank you for your purchase and sorry for this news, but I heard an urgent message from headquarter this morning that there was a problem in production and it is postponed for another several weeks. Apparently the size of the final protector had a problem, but I'm not 100% sure. Would you still wait for its arrival? If not, I will gladly cancel your order. I'm very sorry for your inconvenience. Please let me know. Thank you."
Surprised your version was available if they had size problem on mine.
I cancelled and ordered Brando instead.

I remember Brando protectors way back when I had my Sharp Zaurus, they were the screen protector to have. Much better than Martin Fields and many more expensive ones at the time.

Just fitted my protector, it feels rubbery and it drags your finger as you move it across the screen, i have only just fitted it, so i don't know if this will improve once it dry`s out but at the moment i think i will removing it.

Did you get the full-body or just the screen? I got the full-body, but only plan on putting on the back.... I absolutely hate that feeling on a touchscreen.
Quite a few on here have been using these for a few months....More user views.....
I only got the screen protector, i just took it off, it felt really horrible to move my finger around the screen, i have a strong flip case so hopefully my screen will be protected from scratches anyway.
You experience of the protector might be different to mine, give it a go.

I suppose you are less likely to drop your H1 with the back being more grippy, it`s maybe an advantage.

Did anyone else buy these when they popped up on Amazon? I got mine last week and was wondering what the cut out was for. It's in the middle of either the top or bottom. Hard to tell, but every leaked picture I see shows the camera being off to the side? At least it looms like that to me...

i would think you'd seen the leaked video of the Nexus 5 from the french site. if not, feel free to do a quick google.
in the video, at about 43 seconds, it shows what appears to be the ear piece up top in the center. looks like it's a bit smaller than the eraser on a number 2 pencil.
A screen protector is really useful? This doesn't spoil user experience? No small bubbles between the protection and the screen?

So expect to get 4, not 3 protectors and for them to have a hole in the top middle rather than over the camera where everything points to it being....I'm hopeful stenheil will send replacements if the camera does indeed end up on the left side (which every single indication I've seen is it will)....
Looks like they changed the listing since I ordered, but I received a 4-pack.

Definitely not genuine. He's already shipped the product when the N5 isn't even out yet. He also change his listing and removed the Samsung Nexus 5 name (when we all clearly know the N5 is being made by LG). When I asked him what he has sent and whether it is a genuine Steinheil Product (as even their official website has no placeholder for the Ultra Crystal protector for N5) he simply replied he has sent a compatible one. What the hell is that about?! After 6-7 email exchanges (all logged by Amazon), I went to Amazon as the seller is now unwilling to give me a return postage label. I do not want this generic crap protector which doesn't even have a hole for the earpiece (as seen in the N5 leaked images).
I reported this seller to Amazon and am working through a claim. All I want is a refund, but not happy to pay return postage for a item which was misrepresented. Amazon even told me on the phone that this guy might be in breach of one or more of their policies. Anyway, just waiting for a refund now and will actually wait for the N5 to be released before ordering a SPIGEN protector from a legitimate store.
are just the crystal ones available? anyone have links to legit other ones?

Its a dry application !!!!!
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.

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.

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...

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.
