I have it. Mine is also in white. The anti finger print film is really nice however, I it comes at the cost of giving your screen protector a different smooth matte finish/look. So what that means is that if you are the type of fellow that keeps his nexus at minimal brightness, and don't bother with this protector. The matte finish will make your screen seem not as dark.
Also, for some reason the protector doesn't cover the whole front. It intentionally leaves a black ring of glass around the protector.. It makes it look really nice at the expense of a not fully protected screen. I like mine cus it fits well with my white housing .
Oh right finally on my version (idk if they have another white version) the white portion is has a white flowers texture aka its not completely smooth
Hope this helps

Pictures would be of mighty help, I'd love to pick up something like this and I'm a guy who prefers it the screen to be..brighter rather than dark would that be an issue? how about outdoor readability? and does it create a crappy rainbow effect like cheaper anti glare/ fingerprint protectors?

I went ahead and bought a white 1. I will post pic when it come...I also have the white housing and original button and back cover. Might spray paint those to make my entire phone pure white....99%

SkinIt T989

Has anyone picked up a SkinIt for the T989 yet? Currently i am looking for a front Decal for my T989. I picked up a full body white Decal for my Vibrant a few years ago and loved it. I would like something similar however i am not sure if the skinit is just a rear decal or not.
http://www.skinit.com/details.php?act=setDevice&deviceId=5800
I currently have a TPU white case i picked up off of ebay for $2.95 and love it i would just like to put a bit of white on the front. It would be a plus if i could get the longhorn logo on it as well.
Do they have a white decal for the face of ours?!

thats what i was asking if the skinnit came with a front decal also!
I bought 2 of them and I didn't like the fitment. The skin for the battery cover is 2 pieces and there is a big gap between them. The front skin is ok but has a cutout for the screen so you will need a square screen protector to cover it. Unless you don't care about that. There isn't anything for the bezel.

Best matte screen protector?

Hello guys!
So, I'm big matte fan tip of guy. Love matte finish.
And I want you know if you know a excellent screen protector, because I'm done with these cheap one from ebay.. They get easily scratch and I definitely hate rainbow effect.
Any suggestions?

Some hate it, but I love it. I like the matte look and the feel. No smudges or finger prints too.
The cons, top and bottom don't stick because of the curved screen. They should have made it a little smaller, but doesn't really bother me. Noticeable pixelation of screen and rainbows on whites, but that's normal with matte screen protectors.

Thanks man, but I'm actually using this screen protector, lol.
I was hoping to find a similar SP but without rainbow effect and it would last a lot.
These "6x screen protector" for 5 bucks usually last for 3 weeks and they suck.

Impossible. The light diffusion is the reason why you get the rainbow effect, you can't have one without the other.

Are you saying that I can't have a screen protector without rainbow effect? I have seen a lot that haven't, but none of them with matte finish.

I had the Basal ones, but it had a LOT of rainbow effect to it. I recently got this (link above) and I love it. Still has some rainbow effect and reduced clarity of screen quality, but its much better than the Basal one IMO.

Galaxy Nexus Screen Protector that feels near as possible to glass

Hi,
I am looking for a screen protector for the Galaxy Nexus that feels as near as possible to glass? I like the glassy feeling while using the device and I would hate to have something rubbery instead. I understand the value of a screen protector and I am looking for something that feels the least like rubber i.e. more like glass and less like rubber.
Thank you,
O. O.

I ordered one, they still haven't shipped yet. Just answering the OP's question, I think glass is what would "feel as near as possible to glass"
I wonder how high over the bezel this will go?
I like this idea, but the LCD is already low enough in the glass, this is just creating more of a gap.
I am really interested in a review though.
just go on you tube and look up sgp glass youll know what the tempered glass screen protector is basically like
Thanks let me know when you get it

Thanks Alex1123 Yes, I am looking for a "tempered glass" screen protector for the Galaxy Nexus. Do you have any clue who sells them.
I went to the SGP website and they clearly have a Tempered Glass screen protector for the IPhone 4 e.g. http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/ap...tor-glas-t-premium-tempered-glass-series.html
On the other hand they do not seem to have this for the Galaxy Nexus e.g. http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/google.html this is their list. They have other screen protectors - but not the tempered glass version which I want.
Do you know of any other brands that sell tempered glass screen protector for the Galaxy Nexus Phone?
Thank you,

Dear Big Cam
While we are waiting for EvilOlivE to receive his screen protector I wanted to make two points:
First, the link posted above http://www.xgearlive.com/products/android/samsung/fantom mentions that the screen protector has a thickness of 0.4 mm. I am not experienced with smart phones, so do you think this would still cause a problem.
Second, the article at http://www.droid-life.com/2012/06/1...ectors-for-the-galaxy-nexus-up-for-pre-order/ mentions that you should use coupon code NEXUSFTW to get $5 off. This is just in case someone else is ordering.

Autocorrected from my Nexus
Ive been using screen protector since i got my nexus, early this year. but after seeing my friend who has a HTC Sensation, with no screen protection for over a year, and his screen is really scratch less, made me rip off the protector and just enjoy my device ! now myself im advertising for everyone to remove their screen protectors , by showing all my friends around with a live example how good the screens are already by taking car key and sliding it over my screen multiple times and no scratches are left on the screen.

I wouldnt have done that if I were you. Our phone's screens are strong, but not as strong as gorilla glass. I dropped my nexus 4 days after I got it with no case and screen protector. They were still getting shipped from online. It dropped from average chair height and fell out of my lose pockets from my basketball shorts. No damage or anything on the phone except a 4 very little dings and a scratch near the front camera. I was lucky it wasnt on the camera or on the screen. It was on the black border. I'd say our screens are 3/4 or 2/3 as stong as the average phone with gorilla glass.
Well....just be careful wut ever u do Cuz.....a co worker from A friend of mine bought his nexus online had it for a week.....dropped it....a thin ....long crack resembling a backwards "c" formed on his screen......he paid 500-ish.....total for his phone....I paid him 200.....everything..phone..box ..cables....brand new everything...just the crack on the screen....be care full...might be scratch resistant....but not too sure Bout shocks....

Wow, $30 for screen protector! One would almost want a screen protector for this screen protector at this price . I also wonder (when it ships) how it would play with curved glass on Galaxy Nexus. The curve is not big but glass is not as flexible as regular film.
For what it matters, I went with real cheappo $4 for 5 film and I like it better, sensitivity wise then naked screen. It's smoother and finger can glide on it without getting stuck like on glass. Plus I can attest for anti-glare quality. I can finally run my Nexus in the car at 25% brightness even in the broad daylight and can still clearly see the screen.

Well, watching the video of the one for the iphone, it does bend a bit. So maybe that will help.
At least, I'd hope so.

The guy from the company who makes these posted on the forum (the thread was closed because of the advertising rule) showing the a glass protector for a smaller screen applied on the Nexus to prove that it works with the curved screen. It seems to work fine.
My only reservation with the protector right now is how well the edges would work and how easy it is to apply. Normally I would buy a pair of protectors in case I screw the first one up, but at the price I would have to think twice about it.

Just noticed. In none of the link can I notice a visible accommodation for the Notification LED. Plus what if one wants to taked this off? Will it 'stick' to the original face plate?

On their website, they say there will be cut out for LED. I assume that is for the notification. And I watched a YouTube video where a guy demonstrates applying it and also taking it off with his nails. It seems very easy enough with no residues left on the screen.

[Q] Screen Protector on Sapphire Black Galaxy S3 doesn't fit?

I bought ot a screen protector for my new black S3 and put it on, the edges didn't fit, because of the curved screen. I thought it might be the screen protector so i ordered a new one, still the same. Also the sticker that comes with it in the box doesn't even fit properly, just like the screen protector.
What the hell is going on? Have they changed the shape of the black GS3? Because those screen protector work fine on my girlfriends white S3 and my brothers blue S3.
Heres a picture:
http://i48.tinypic.com/2qnoyrl.jpg
This is a Sapphire Black Galaxy S3 i9300, and I have tried on the screen protectors on other Galaxy S3's and they work fine. And if you say I've not put it on correctly, beleive me, I have. Also wasted about 10 matte screen protectors.
Help
Re: [Q] Screen Protector on Black Galaxy S3 doesn't fit?
I've noticed in the shop that the black versions have a more sunken screen / raised edges compared to the original blue / white.

I have an anti-glare screen protector by tech armor and it leaves a gap around the edges for this specific reason. You can try those?

Screen protector for display portion only?

Hey guys, I'm looking into turning my Note 2 all black. With the perfect amoled blacks it's going to be impressive, to say the least. There are a couple of ways of doing that. To buy a screen protector with the edges, top and bottom colored black or get an all black vinyl. This would mean I should get a screen protector for the display portion only. Do these even exist?
I might get one of the black alu cases, which are looking quite fancy, especially the better grip I would benefit from. However, the front needs to be black to make it all blend in. Tips are quite welcome.
Thanks and cheers
No one?
There should be... If there is not.. Then cut it to fit just that portion.. That's safe..

Yeah, I've looked virtually everywhere though, to no avail. Isn't it nigh impossible to cut the screen protectors, due to the nature of the material?
