I just got my Droid X today and I know my screen is going to get scratched to hell and back. I bought a quality one off of ebay for my TP2 and it was an all out pain to get on; ended up throwing it away in anger.
So what is the best screen protector for the X? I would like one that covers the whole face not just the area you touch. I hear the vzw ones suck...
I was considering buying one of those body guard kits and let someone at the mall install it (i can never seem to get the bubbles out). Are they any good?
There really isn't a "best" screen protector. It depends on what you want in a screen protector. There are two main types, the kind that uses static adhesion (think the plastic sheet that was on the screen when you bought it) or the kind that uses a liquid adhesive. (like Zagg Invisible shield) The liquid adhesive ones typically have better protection, but can cause more distortion and are known to more severely affect the feel of the touch screen. They can also be a ***** to put on, prepare to spend at least 30 minutes to do a proper job, and you won't be able to use your phone for 24-48 hours while it dries. However, if you are really worried about getting the best protection, go for that.
Static adhesion ones are probably going to work for the majority of people, especially since the Droid X has Gorilla glass and many people say you don't even need a screen protector at all. I believe SGP (also known as Steinheil) makes high-quality static adhesion protectors, but they may be out of stock at the moment. I'm probably going to get an SGP for my DX when they get back in stock. Go for the crystal or ultra-crystal, i've heard reports that the anti-glare or anti-fingerprint affect the feel/drag and look of the screen more than the crystals.
tl;dr Get an SGP (Steinheil) crystal or ultra-crystal
I used one on my MT3G. It's still on there after a year.
On the DroidX I haven't put one on. It uses 'Gorilla Glass' which is really good, from Corning.
There's a video on youtube where a guy tried to scratch his screen with keys about 30 times and it didn't scratch at all.
I haven't heard about anyone getting a scratch yet, and I'm not going to put on a screen protector.
May not need one on the DroidX.
Has anyone gotten a scratch yet?

Yea those ultra crystals look pretty good. Ive never used an adhesive one before though... i dont really like the sound of it either. I've used the water ones and they work ok...

These are the best ive found, and I have gone through FOUR brands now looking for what I want, including the verizon one.
The crystal clear ones are exaclty that -- crystal clear screen prots with adhesive on one side and a protective film on the other that you peel off the front when you are done applying the protector. THIS IS NOT THAT ZAGG POLYVINYL crap. I hate that stuff.
The anti-fingerprint ones are also nice, I have those too. They are a bit "cloudy" like the verizon ones, but your finger glides over them fantastically, and they reduce glare.
The best part is -- THEY COVER THE WHOLE SCREEN AREA! I wanted that especially. Enjoy!
well i think I am going to buy the crystal one... i just hope its not hard to put on. Im not the best at putting those sticky ones on
Zagg
Zagg works for me:

You don't need to use screen protectors on the Droid X. As stated before it has Gorilla Glass. If something happens that is strong enough to scratch Gorilla Glass a little plastic screen protector isn't going to stop it.
Steinheil Ultra Crystal is the best, hands down!
In my option, the best protector is the Steinheil Crsytal. I had it on my Incredible, my brother still does, and now I have the Steinheil Ultra Crystal on my DX. It keeps the screen perfectly glass looking, as if there is nothing on it, allows for easy sliding, and is nice and thick to protect the screen. In my opinion, you can't beat it.
With shipping I paid 17.25 for it... comes with 2 protectors. They initially lost my order, so they sent me another, and guess what? The original showed up. So now I am expecting another at the end of this week/beginning of next.
If anyone is interested in it, I would be happy to sell it since I obviously don't need it. Let me know. I also have an extra TPU argyle (dark gray) case that I would be willing to sell if the price is right. I paid 8 dollars, shipped, for it.
In my opinion, the SGP Ultra Crystal is by far the best protector for the X.
I've had the VZW protector, which was horrible, and I've also had a privacy guard. Though the privacy guard did keep my phone private, the touch screen functionality wasn't great because the privacy guard was too thick.
I ended up with the SGP Steinheil ULTRA CRYSTAL Screen Protector and I love it. It's so clear, and it almost feels like there is nothing on the screen, but it's pretty thick compared to others; thick enough to provide excellent protection and not hinder touch screen functionality.

Actually, Gorilla Glass can be scratched. I've managed to get a really bad 3 MM wide scratch on my Zune HD, which has Gorilla Glass as well. I've heard of similar reports of scratches on devices with Gorilla Glass. So in other words, these screens aren't scratch proof. They're scratch resistant.

SGP Steinheil ULTRA CRYSTAL Screen Protector +1
it's awesome. It comes with two, and I botched the first one... many would say it was fine, but I had like one spec of dust under it, removed, recleaned, reapplied number 2... it's AWESOME. I don't use a bumper or anything big and latexy around the outside of my phone, just a Steinheil on the screen, and nothing else. It's CLEAN.
SGP Ultra Crystal. Just put it on and I can safely say I'm very impressed. You really can't tell there's anything there imo. It was a pita to figure out how to put it on...at least for me. I had to watch a you tube video to realize there are actually 3 layers to each screen protector when first taken out of the package. Piece of cake after that. Gotta be smarter than the screen protector I guess.

After dealing with half a dozen screen protectors for my past 3 phones, Including Zagg, Seidio, and a bunch of other cheapies... I really recommend the Boxwave Crystal Touch.
It is literally the easiest thing I have ever applied, from out of the package to on my phone perfectly in less than a minute. You cannot even tell it is on your phone.

I have read some ad for the ultra protectors, some brands are INVISIBLE SHIELD, BODYGUARDZ, SGP PROTECTOR etc
Since i am LG P970 and it is not using the Gorilla Glass. I want a screen protector/ full phone coverage can protect from keys scratches, coin scratches in my bag.
what are the different? I know they all provided lifetime warranty replacement service. But Can I have more brands for comparison and have your comments on these protectors (how hard/strength are they)?
Thanks~~
i have looked the two web and do think that the info are great.As a matter of fact ,i bought two pieces.
I bought a Martin Fields screen protector for my HTC Mozart and am loving it.
Took a while to apply as I wanted it to be perfect and have no bubbles / dust particles under it. It now looks great (like there is no screen protector on).
Also as far as I can tell, it uses static to stick and no glue so you can remove it, put it back. If you need to get your phone swapped out, take it off and put it on the new phone etc.
It was half the price of the invisible shields (well, the prices here in South Africa at least).
i use the invisi-shield. and must say its very resistant to anything i have in my pockets with the phone.
I currently have a Skinomi and I notice it seems to be thinner/more malleable than others I've seen, so I do think there are at least subtle differences between most the brands. Sometimes differences can be major, as I hear about the Zagg and its intentional texture. I saw GhostArmor in the mall last week and although its cut didn't seem nearly as good as Skinomi's, I'm still going to give it a shot because it seemed to have very good transparency.

What I think is really funny is that everyone is buying this same stuff that 3M makes for protecting cars paint as well as head lights and it would probably be cheaper for one to get this stuff here rather than pay the amount for specially cut out clear film.

+1 INVISIBLE SHIELD It's a durable shield.
im just using the normal 1...haha...it very good also...
nice product i love it
What does everyone here think about Seidio? I'll probably be getting a G-Nexus and want to put something on it right out of the box.
I use a xoskin screen protector. They come with a install kit, spray, squeegee, and instructions. They are smooth and dont have orange peel like others and they dont turn yellow and peel off.
I use it to and good..
+1 to invisible sheild here.. once you get used to the texture it's a very good protector.
what do you think about defy
invisible Shield is great! I have it some time now, and the phone looks just like new
Please pleaase try a steinheil ultra crystal first!
I tried a couple cheapies $3 or so with bad results. They wore down in a couple weeks and didn't look clear.
The sgp or steinheil ultra crystal truly makes the screen look like glass with no protector on! And I am three weeks not a dent or scratch. They are around $14 shipped and well worth it (2 pack)
I have it on my samsung galaxy s2 Epic™ 4g touch and I might prefer the cover to the raw glass

I know there is a thread made on the 16th that basically touches on this question, but doesn't really answer it. I work for Apple and have fallen in love with the Power Support screen protectors. The only problem is they are only available for Apple devices. I've done a lot of searching for a close alternative with no conclusive results. I was going to go with an SGP Oleophobic but a little more research has me thinking that I'll be disappointed. SGP's Ultra Crystal line seems like it could be close but they aren't available yet.
Can someone who has experience with Power Support protectors tell me if there is anything that comes even remotely close? I don't care if its wet or dry install, I just want it to look/feel/function similarly.
EDIT: If you are thinking of replying with "haven't you seen the 'key scratch test?'," or "I don't like screen protectors on my phones, why do you?," or anything that doesn't have to do with the question, don't bother responding. I'm not wondering "if" I should get one, so there is no need to respond like I am.
Thanks
Screen cover is not nacessaire because it is easy to replace the old display with a new one.
Anyone?

What a terrible comment. Not only is it NOT easy to replace the screen, it's not going to be cost effective at all. You could buy 50 screen protectors and still not be close to the same cost as replacing the screen.
Sorry I have nothing positive to contribute OP. Hope you find what you are looking for.
Sadly OP, I dont think you'll find anything near the powersupport quality. I work for a certain someone too, putting on at least 15 powersupports a day for no extra charge (perfectly, I might add) and I absolutely love the finish it gives the iPhone.
After 3 days of no screen protector, I finally went to a VZW corporate store today and splurged on the 3-pack of crystal clear protectors. The value was pretty good, 3 great protectors for only $13 (around $8 with a corp. discount). They are not antiglare (I hear those for the GNex suck), but they definitely are not very noticeable.
My only gripes are that the protector does not go all the way to each side (which is not vzw's fault, and is easily remedied by a case) and the fact that it causes an extremely slight rainbow if the phone is tilted at a 80 degree angle or so. But then again, whenever i use my phone its at a straight angle to my face, so i never notice it unless i'm trying.
Hope it helps
I've extensively used Power Support films for my Apple phones and am a big fan of the clear protectors. I've used SGP as an alternate for my Android phones and have also used a few of their films for iPhones. I feel like the general film quality is comparable between SGP and Power Support, although I do prefer Power Support. In my experience, the Ultra Crystal is the closest product that SGP has to the Power Support clear films. I have used the Ultra Oleophobic, which I think is also close, but does seem to have noticeably increased friction over Power Support. Despite what you might think, I find that the oleophobic have an odd tendency to keep certain smudges and can require a little effort to get completely spotless. I usually use a microfiber cloth to wipe mine.
I am currently using an Ultra Oleophobic screen protector on my Galaxy Nexus. As has been noted on other threads, it does not cover the entire face of the phone. Although I mentioned a few of the negatives that I perceived in the film, I am still generally happy with its performance outside of the reduced size. To me, the quality of the film itself is markedly better than that of cheaper alternatives.
Although I cannot personally vouch for it, the reputation of Martin Fields is that they produce screen protectors comparable in quality to Power Support. They appear to now carry a product for the Galaxy Nexus front face and rear camera lens. My anecdotal experience with the company has been that I placed one order with them but never received the product. I never tried them again. I know that some reputable third-party resellers, like Expansys, carry their products and you may have better luck with them than shopping direct.
I believe that Power Support, SGP and Martin Fields all use similar Japanese produced base film material.
I have never used a wet film so I cannot make a comparison.
As an aside, the only instance in which I prefer SGP to Power Support is for their matte films (which I generally do not care for.) I find the Ultra Optics to be a better matte film than the Power Support anti-fingerprint film. I have used both on iPhones.
I like the powersupport protectors too. Always used them on my wife's iphone 3g and i was pissed when every apple store within 50 miles of dallas was out of them when we got her new iphone 4. I settled for an ifrogz they sold at the att store and she likes it just as much. Problem with my GNex is i have yet to find a dry apply protector that properly fits the curved screen. I have a Zagg on currently but i hate it....way too much orange peel. I also have a clear-coat and an sgp flex that were delivered today. They both appear to have less orange peel than the zagg but i havent tried either yet. Still....none compare to the powersupport. Bummer.
Thank you all for the replies. It sounds like I probably will end up giving the SGP Oleophobic a shot and seeing how I like it.
Anyone else waiting for a viable alternative than the current screen protector available?
Flex HD and Zagg look good, but they have many drawbacks, and the adhesive protectors do not offer any full screen protection. I am aware that it is due to the curved nature of the gorilla glass but surely someone would be able to make an adhesive protector which simply curves around the edges? (the edges would be uniform on all S3's so I do not see a problem there)
Does anyone have news of any upcoming screen protectors?
I assume there is nothing to come then

wet apply screen protectors that cover the screen are going to be a soft material and hence more grippy and rubbery.
dry apply ones which are hard will only be able to cover the whole screen if they where made curved out of the factory to custom fit the S3. the cost for tooling and manufacture and for packaging will prob put off manufacturers making them. plus if they aren't the right curve or angle then it won't fit properly. so theoretically it is possible, but due to the complexity i doubt they will be produced.
forgive me if i am wrong but i think current screen protectors all come off one line when being made, then just cut to the specific shape for each phone. but if you were to make a custom curved one, then a whole production line would just be making those ones making it much more expensive.
I bought one from ebay...
XtremeGuard Screen Protector/Shield - Galaxy s3
I am not happy with the quality. I have ordered from them in the past and have had no issues. Now the material seems a lot thinner and my tpu case keeps pushing up the sides...So stay away if you are using a TPU case
I kind of asked similar question, but for now, there is none except for wet screen protector. If you are looking for a dry screen protector, SGP Ultra Nano Clear might be the best one. I saw this review, and it looks almost invisible because it's thin. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1741650
Had a Chat with Spigen, turns out they are in fact developing a new screen protector but as they are in talks with their manufacturer they cant give any solid details. Here is the Message they sent me:
"Dear XXXXX,

Hi, my name is Diana from Spigen.com.
Thank you for your interest in our products! We are currently developing a new screen protector for the Galaxy S3, unfortunately, because nothing has been confirmed with the manufacturers at the moment, there is not much information we can provide as to what kind of screen protector it may be. However, please continue to check our website, facebook, and twitter pages for updates on all of our products from time to time.

Looks like we will get some good news soon, if we stay patient that is
Looks like we got our answer! http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/sa...creen-protector-steinheil-curved-crystal.html
Old thread lol but ill bump it up. I have the Xtremeguard from ebay ($2 shipped) and its pretty good, lot better that the zagg ive had in the past, and alot cheaper lol. Almost no orange peel look (very minimal). It is indeed kinda grippy at first but after usage it smooth outs enough. Feels good now, still slight grippy effect but smooth while texting or whatnot
How about one that offers more than scratch protection. How about one that can keep the screen from shattering when dropped on gravel from five feet face down!
Okay. Here it is. We can start the debate soon about which screen protectors actually work on this phone without Halo and bubble issues. It is always an issue with these curved glass screens but there are always 1 or 2 screen protectors that people can get to actually work. Please post which ones you have purchased and how well they worked.
Posting without pictures is not helpful to anyone.
Ordered the ones through Amazon from Mr. Shields and the case/protector from HanhuaTech. The Mr. Shields order gave me 3 and all 3 were nothing but bubbles. Never used their stuff before and highly disappointed. The latter was a nice case, but the screen protector has a black ring around the edges and is impossible to line-up so it doesn't cover the edges of the display area. No bubbles though. Just cut off part of my screen. Still looking. The Otterbox Defender does not include a screen protector.
I tried those Mr shield protectors with my v30 and they were garbage.
The supershieldz worked well with my v30 but the v40 version has that stupid black border which means it only has adhesive at the edges and will have the rainbow effect
Guess we're all screwed for a bit. For what this thing costs, I refuse not to have the tempered glass protector, but they all have the black ring or bubbles. Early adopter blues I guess.
Curved screens, like the V40 (and pretty much every flagship phone) have tend to have poor tempered glass adhesion, in my experience. It seems they all utilize only adhesive along the outer edge, leading them to come unstuck extremely quickly and easily. All of the reviewed models on Amazon, likewise, have this problem. Hopefully a good one will come out for this phone at some point reasonably soon.
I know that T-Mobile tried to sell me an overpriced one when I purchased my phone, though I'm not certain they had any in stock yet. If no models come out that stay stuck pretty well, I will take purchase one of theirs, as they will replace it every time I come in the store.
Be patient and wait for IQ Shield LiQuidSkin, best on the market for curved screens. Available mid Nov.
I quite enjoy the bodyguardz one I got. It's aluminosilicate like gorilla glass and does have the black border, however I've seen 0 rainbowing. Also comes with lifetime replacements which I will probably thoroughly abuse.
I just ordered a set right from their website. It didn't list that it wasn't in stock and ready to ship, so we'll see!
Don't rush! The earlier you get it, the bigger the risk it's not properly tested yet (especially when it comes to curved screens). This early after release, you're the guinea pig...
While I'm waiting for "IQ Shield LiQuidSkin" I ordered "PULEN Screen Protector"... I'll keep you updated!
I ordered the Poetic tempered glass screen protector. Works like a charm. 3 Days and still sticking no problem. No halo, rainbow effect, etc. Absolutely loving it. Fit is amazing and the feel is as good as the original glass, if not slicker. I'm using it with a Ringke Fusion-X case and they work perfectly together. The screen protector is case friendly and the gap between the glass and case is very minimal.

I was just looking at the poetic glass on Amazon and can't seem to find a good enough review that specifies it the tempered glass fully seals to the device or only seals around the edges of the glass?
Just heard from Whitestone email support that they do not currently plan on producing Dome Glass for the V40... real shame. Maybe some other V40 owners can chime in to pique their interest?
I was also just looking at the Poetic before I came over here, and also wonder if it is in fact full-adhesive. Anyone?

I've been looking at that but but I'm in high doubts it's full adhesive
I just installed the Poetic tempered glass from Amazon and it has a massive rainbow effect. There clearly isn't any adhesive in the middle. Until someone makes a decent one it will have to do.

Dang, it seems so difficult to find good tempered glass screen protectors. Poetic seemed promising but glad you confirmed it is not full adhesive, since so many brands don't specify.

Update!
Amid medium level reviews on Amazon, I have to say I'm surprised this pulen sp is working so well. Some kind of drier than normal glue, covers the whole sp, and if you place it perfectly, it's actually a very nice sp. The black frame slightly covers (1/10 of a mm) of left and right sides, but it really doesn't take away anything, not even the screen off blue notification around the frame. I'm not sure about the physical strength though. I'm a very careful person, never really drop my phone. No rainbow! No dust stuck around the borders. Right now I'm not sure I will order the liQuidSkin? I'm happy with this one

I'm using Key liquid glass screen protector. I can't stand the film protectors so decided to use this. It's a wipe on application, scratch resistant, 9H superior hardness rating, water proof and anti bacterial. Just clean the screen with the included cleaning wipe than apply the liquid screen protector via the included wipe. Let sit for about 5 minutes and you're set.
