Has anyone found somewhere with screen protectors for the Ameo (that will have stock before 15th April)?
My Ameo is getting delivered tomorrow, and I'm thinking that if I wait till 15th April, my screen will be scratched to bits by then. All the screen protector will get to do will be to neatly seal and preserve the scratches! ;-)
HI,
My T-mobile Ameo(The Netherlands) was delivered with a screenprotector
But the quality isn't as good as the UltraClears from Brando. But it's something. I will replace it when Brando has them for the Ameo.

be careful of the original screen protector, when you remove it, it might leaves a mask on the screen !! one of my friend used the original screen protector, and when he removed it, the screen surface got "lift up", so the surface is no longer flat!!! he has to send back and get a exchange at the end.
I am also looking for screen protector, i have contact Martin Field, and they say they will release one soon when they get the screen measurement.
there is a better choise i beleve, which is full body shield

Now this I like the look of. Durability! But how is the quality of the actual Screen protector? Is it like Boxwaves Clearview or 99% Anti-reflection...bla bla bla?
This is important as I don't want to loose the sharpness of the display or much of the touch sensitivity of the screen.
@wu5262:
Thanks for the warning(and all your other comments in the Athena section. I read them (almost) all).
I will be very carefull when peeling the screen protector off. And will order another one as soon as possible.
@lawbet7eb:
Thanks for the tip; Did you trey those yourself already? I Like to know how good they are on the screen. And if they give the same clearness as the Brando UltraClears or Boxwaves screen protectors.
I just oredered one, so I will test it and share the results with you guys!
@ dpbakker: Ik verwacht de protectie as vrijdag binnen te hebben!
Thanks/Dank je wel
I will wait with ordering then
Hi,
I couldn't wait and already got this screen/device protection and applied it.
It works verry wel and is, in my opinion, better/clearer than the original screen protector. It feels thicker dan the original one but the touch screen works as well as before. I also applied the protection on the rest of the device. That works OK as well. But the disadvantage of protection is that it is flexibel in the way that you can stretch the 'plastic'. So be very carefull when applying it. The protection for arround the screen was the only one not working for me. Mine wasn't cut out OK and I streched it to much. :-( So I threw it away.

is it possible for you to post some picture of it? how does it feel? does it make your device feel like a huge plastic?
I will make some pictures tonight( need a second camera for that).
It feels a bit plastic, but I don't mind. The Ameo is in it's case most of the time. If you touch the screen with your stylus then it feels a bit sticky, but you can drag arround the screen with your stylus with no problem. It is however difficult to apply the protection withou any bubble, but maybe I'm just a bit clumsy with that.
As promissed, the pictures.
I've got it also as of todayand I'm also positive avout this invisible shield protector. Indeed be carefull with getting of the plastic from the paper. Also use a lot of water (delivered with the package) because then you can position the shield the best. An other tip: use a tissue to get rid of the water between the shield and the screen.
Works perfect.
+ very easy to install
+ good protection for all sites of the device
+ very clear en bright
- easy to cut the thinner parts in 2
- he plasic is reel soft like a kind of thin rubber, so if you drag over the screen using your stylus feels like you stuck in the plasic a bit. Maybe this will get a bit better after a couple of day's.
Conclusion: 8+ (out of 10) so buy it!

Thanks for the heads-up - I've ordered mine now.
(And I can second the recommendation - I've tried a few different screen protectors before, and the Martin Fields one I used on my Universal was by far the best.)
Maybe Brando UltraClear would be the best solution???

Sounds good to me - have just ordered some Martin Fields protectors! Just can't wait for my Ameo now!
I bought a pack of Writeright things YEARS ago, and have been using the same pack ever since. However due to the size of the Ameo screen they come nowhere near filling it.
A shame, they are amazing.
The stock one that came with it is a bit sticky for my liking, and a tiny bit too narrow. I have over a 1mm gap at the right because I lined up at the left edge exactly.
Im not so good at fitting them, so a couple of bubbles. Has anyone lifted and replaced the stock protector? recommended methods? The old fingernail under the corner always ruins them.
Some people suggest a bit of sticky tape to lift the corner.

I disagree. I have just fitted the Martin Field screen protector to my Ameo abd it didn't work well. I have had to take it off and now I have no screen protector temporarily.
Guys,
Have you bought a screen protector for Kaiser recently?
The one that fit and good quality.
I read before that the one for TyTn I will not fit.
But I bought it anyway from Martin Shield (I use it before for my Magician), and indeed it is too big for 1+ mm ...
I will try to cut it and let see if it fit.
However, if you know a good screen protector that fit with Kaiser please let me know.
Thanks
Damn was about to ask the same question! The one that came with the device feels a bit gummy, and I don't trust it not to leave residue if I remove it. On the hunt for a good one now!
Check this out, in my humble opinion this is the best:

What about the wizard screen protectors. I don't have my tytn II yet but the specs are the same in terms of screen size so I imagine they should fit.
I certainly hope so since I have a handful of the martin fields protectors (which I like the best) for the wizard. Since I no longer have a wizard..I no longer have a use for them unless they fit my soon to be Kaiser
My Brando Ultra Clear protector arrived this morning for my Kaiser. It's a perfect fit and as is up to the usual high quality of Brando.
Done! I cut the one from Martin Shield a little bit and it is perfectly fit now
I like Martin Shield, it is so easy to put and no trapped bubbles.
But yeah, they should come up with a proper size for the Kaiser.
I bought the fellows brand. They are very nice since they come with a grid that you line up and then make your cut. It comes with like 20 sheets too so if you screw up you can start over. Also comes with a nice squeege so you dont get any bubbles. You cant even tell mine is on. Very Nice!!!
I am using the WriteSHIELD anti-GLARE that i bought for my Wizard (8125). They fit perfectly and the anit glare finish feels great for touch flo scrolling!

They actually fit the TyTN II better than they fit my 8125. LOL

I like the WriteSHEILDs myself, and was waiting for them to update their site to show ones specifically recommended for the TyTN II. When you say the Wizard size fits "perfectly", do you really mean it ?? (I'll be purchasing based on your response - thanks in advance!)
(I'm currently using one from my old PPC-6700 (Apache), and it fits perfectly width-wise but is a little over 1/8" too short length-wise)
Close to perfect for me -- I put a Qtek 9100 WriteSHIELD on my Tytn II and there's a gap of maybe 0.5 mm on the left hand side, and no gap on the other sides. The same WriteSHIELD on the Qtek 9100 has a gap of about 1.5 mm on the bottom.
Lets just say it fits so tight it took me a bit to get it centered correctly.
There is a tiny, maybe 0.5 mm gap at the bottom that i probably could have avoided if i had worked on placement more because my top edge is a bit under the device front.
They fit way batter than they did on my K-jam or 8125
I just got the WriteSHIELD (wizard size) today and it fits perfectly on my kaiser. In fact, the fit is so tight, I'm a little worried as to how I'll get it off if I ever have to replace it. Excellent quality and I really like the texture. It feels nice when using the stylus.

I'm dying to purchase a Writeshield, since I have had them on all my devices since the ipaq's.. Only problem is that I already ordered a Brando Screen protector and I don't wanna spend the money on the writeshield if the Brando works fine... Now here is my question... How long does it usually take for them to send the damn screen protectors. I ordered my Brando protector on the 19th... Anyone know how long till it gets to Cali?

I bought a brando too about 1.5 weeks ago. it still hasn't come in though. the brando site ships from overseas so it could take awhile. I got impatient and ordered the writeshield over the weekend and got it today. I figure I'll have an extra now in case I need to replace.

I want to order a screen protector and I was thinking about a leather slip case. Anyone have any experience with their cases?
What I read and heard
From what I have read and heard is that the MartinField screenprotectors are one of the best out there. No hands on experience though.
I have used these on all my recent phones, they are very good but expensive £15 delivered
did u guys also removed the default screen protector ? i felt it was reducing the touch response of the screen..and very thick also.

well, the stock protector lasted me one day of use... putting the x1 on my pocket a few times peeled the sony protector so it's useless...
anyways, martin one should be here tomorrow (so says the track id)
Hi,
The "stock" screen protector lasted me a week. But you do need to cut/trim the tab off so that pocketing the phone and other general usage doesn't peel the protector off.
Have now fitted a Martin Field one.
Be warned though the sticky side of those protectors attract dust/lint/etc like a magnet!!! Also, that lint free cloth you think is lint free, isn't!!!
Have fitted 3 of these over the years and have never failed to get some lint etc between the screen and protector...
But they do do the job and protect your screen. Better £15 for one than £!!!! for a new LCD...
Des. . .
I've got a Martin Fields screen protector and I love it.
<rant>
I wasted £5 on a protector from eximstyle on ebay first.
It was too long by a couple of mm and just too wide so that it would press down on the screen when it was squeezed in; the quality wasn't great either, it didn't slide like the MF did. (They sent a replacement which was exactly the same )
Sometimes you really do get what you pay for! Got to love Paypal, it went a claim and they judged that if I sent it back with tracking I could have a refund (the postage would cost more than the refund).
I know where I'll be getting my screen protectors from in future, and it's not from jokers on ebay!

Sony Ericsson Xperia leather case
Leather cases on MartinFields are the same I bought from PDA Hut.

Just fitted one, perfect fit. Got a damn tiny piece of lint between it and the screen !! No biggies.
So far, so good
The stylus slides real smoothly
Hello guys, i've bought 2 screen protectors for my Xperia but both are crappy! Within the first day the screen protectors are full of scratches by the use of the stick.
Which one should i buy so i won't have the scratches issue?
Cheers,
Bill
Been there too. The Boxwave Cleartouch screen protector is awesome, and most likely the best. Next would be Martin Fields.
Goto http://www.boxwave.com/products/cleartouchcrystal/cleartouch-crystal-screen-protector-sony-ericsson-xperia-x1_3351.htm
Just don't buy reflective screen protectors. These scratch bad.
Thanks you guys, 99% i will buy the Boxwave ones. I hope they will send to Greece.
the martin fields one is hella sweet
In 3 days, my Martin fields is horrible ! TOTALLY full of scratches !
i've not used those brands before but read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3843133#post3843133

Does the xperia screen have scratch resistant technology?

I have the martin fields too and it scratches and smudges really easily, anyone have any suggestions for one that doesn't smudge? thats what I'm looking for the most. Anyone tried the boxwave antiglare?

Ι have ordered the Boxwave ones, they've been sent at 26/05, as soon as i've got them here in Greece i will let you know.
I should have bought these at the beginning. There is no point doing it now. I already scratched it badly .
Today received the Boxwave ClearTouch Crystal. Hope till the night will share the appropriate feedbach.
i think clear screen protectors don't have any smudge resistance, only the antiglare ones do. Can anyone verify?
the clear coat protector smudges slightly but is awesome scratch protection! and doesn't scratch itself
Hi guys, i search for this subject, but i didnt found a answer on my question..
I have bought an HD2 2 weeks ago, and now i'm searching for an screenprotector. All my friends (no HD2's) have static protectors (so, no glue usages).. They say Static adherence is better, because it leaves no glue when you remove the protector (and adhesive protectors do?).
For the HD2 instead I can find only adhesive protectors, or protectors where iam not sure how they adhere to the phone..
For instance, the 'screen only' version of invisible shield, is that a adhesive or static protector?
Martin Fields notes that their protector is removable, but still with "A mild adhesive"
Also it is not clear if the basic protector of HTC is using Adhesive
I found one protector for HD2, that is using Static adherence: ScreenGuardz (screenguardz.com). Problem is that I dont find anybody who bought this allready..
In short i have 2 questions:
1. Is it true that when you remove a protector with adhesive adherence, there will stay some glue on your phone?
2. Adhere the "screen only" protector of invisible shield adhesive or static? And if this one is adhesive, do you know an other static protector?
Thanks in advance, Proces
I got a Martin Fields one, the best I have ever seen. 90% clear in ads but I have to say nearly 95% or 99% clear. Smooth sliding like original glass. I dont have a good hand but it's really easy to install with no crazy bubbles. I removed it once for washing, no feel of glue at all.
I used to buy cheap screen protector but this time I went for Martin Fields. I didnt want my lovely HD2 to be damaged. No regret at all. It's just worth it.
Is Martin Fields Scratch-proof like the one from zagg.com That's a lot better then that you've to replace your screen protector every month(s).
I havent used zagg invisible shield so I cant answer u. But from what I read so far, zagg is not really so invisible and Martin Fields's protector is not better at anti-scratch than zagg's one.
However, some guys said after a long time using zagg, there's some odd brown spot in his shield for HD2, look like mudd or sth else. And zagg is not as smooth as Martin Fields. That lead me to my decision.
The ones I use is Exim, used it on my last few devices and it is perfect. Can't tell a screen protector is being used both visually or by touch.
The Exim protector seems to be nice! No glue, and (according to the ads) perfect quality.. Can you tell something about your experience with the Exim? How went the installation (and re-installation)?
Martin Fields or Exim dont make a difference in price (£10).. The glue free feature of Exim makes me think to choose the Exim.
Other opinions why I have to choose an other Screen Protector?
Use a Brando Ultraclear: fits perfect with no glue (removable, washable and re-usable). I'm using on hd2 and is totally unnoticeable; i had on my previous device (and on my TomTom also) and after one year there are no scratch on surface and the screen protector appears like brand new

Installation is the same as any other screen protector. After I installed it, if there is any dust specs behind the protector, I simply lift it up with masking tape and use another piece of masking tape to remove the dust.
I just removed my exim from my old Diamond (after 2 years ish) and the screen is in perfect condition with no residue left.
Anyone got a photo of the HD2 Martin Fields protectors on the phone, to get an idea of fit - got the HTC ones and they were terrible but would ultimately like one to be on the safe side...

So, after all, there isn't much difference between the different brands (Martin Fiels, Exim, Brando)?

I can't comment on how the others that you mentioned performs as I have never used them. What I can say is that the exim does not reduce sensitivity, I had a normal cheap one on and I couldn't stand it as the screen was desensitised.
well I can tell you about different screen protectors.
i had invisible shield on my hd for 1 and half year, no visible scratches, now changed screen part to htc branded, it has been for one week and there is 7 very visible deep scratches.
same time that i bought htc branded for hd i bought brando ultraclear for hd2 and it has not even slightest mark, even that it has had much more usage than hd. also had same brando on my htc wizard for 2years and it got 2 very small marks.
martin shields is about the same that brando, maybe even better, had one on my diamond. but brando is better fit i think.
i recommend brando or martin, they are superior to any other. zagg invisible is god but its kinda sluggish for first 2months when brando, martin are very slicky nice.
cheap protectors like htc are BAD if one package has more than one it cant be good since even they dont trust their own product.
