How do you feel on the X1 Invisible Shield??

Hello everyone~ I just bought my X1 and I am thinking of using the Invisible Shield. I realize that installing the Invisible Shield will have to spray something like water on the phone. Is it safe?? And how is your opinion on using it?? Or if you have other suggestion??
Thank you very much~~

The invisible shield is very stretchable and it gives a rubbery feel to your phone when felt. When applied to the phone, the brushed metal effect will be covered. And when you spray the solution on the shield, not the phone. Applying the shield is challenging though. If you want to see how stretchy the invisible shield, go youtyube to find out. There's videos. And when you aply the shield, really try not to stretch the shield. The screen shield will fit really nice. You've been warned.

Ive had the invisible shield on the X1 for a month, now.
I have to say, im not totally impressed, and have already removed several parts of it.
The material it is made from is brilliant. Does exactly what it says it does.
I dont have any marks on the screen, whatsoever. I originally had a cheaper screen protector on, and after 3 weeks, it was a mess of scratches.
So, If ZAGG could improve the fitting of the kit, so it covers a little better, i would give it top marks, but, for now, i think it needs improving.

I am waiting for my invisibleshield, screen only, i have my xperia since 3 weeks now and i have 2 tiny scratches on the screen, border area, want to install the shield before it's too late !!!
I already used invisible shield on my K800i and my Nikon camera, they are GREAT...

anyoen got pics with the invisishield on? i just did mine and it looks horrible...im not sure if its dust or the adhesive drying..see a lot of white spotss

not invisible then, at least at first, what about later, is it really invisible?

i heard that invisible shield changes color after certain amount of time. i mean it stains from sun lights and other stuff.

Oxidation, maybe. I had one pasted on my SE G700 B.E using SE G900 screen as the company did not come out G700 version... The person did it badly on my screen, overstretched a little and now the whole shield yellows. But it still looks good on my screen. My PSP and my X1 did not suffer "oxidation" most probably due to good application.

I have the bodygaurdz version, of which I'm guessing that the invisishield is using the same materials.
the screen protector part is invisible, probably the best screen protector ever, and I had a harder plastic type before. also, the back battery cover it's virtually invisible, if applied correctly. it took a few days for it to become super clear. the unfortunate part, is the chrome part, since the chrome is so smooth, it didn't come out as nice, and putting it in a plastic case, or in a holder will make little smudges, (which pretty much buffs out).
I'm happy so far, but I'm guessing on a smooth phone like an iphone, this thing would be badass. for the xperia, w/ all the small pieces, it's not as "smooth" looking, but the increase in grip has prevented me from dropping the phone.

DO NOT BUY INVISIBLE SHIELD FOR X1. I've had a bad experience with it and this experience (and others) is outlined in this forum here:
http://www.inxperia.com/forums/accessories/527-do-not-waste-your-money-invisible-shield.html

I have a Martin Fields protector and it's very good so far. It does collect fingerprints a bit but most do so that doesn't worry me. Also it's made of PET so it doesn't lose colour in sunlight, I think. Yellowing in other plastics is caused by UV breakdown of the polymer. There is a surface treatment that can mitigate the effect but I doubt a $2 screen protector would hace that.
I'll just add I had a look at n4v1n's link and the invisible shield does seem to be a problem for the X1 since the "Sony Ericsson" and "XPERIA" logos are printed onto the metal, which makes them vulnerable. This doesn't apply to the screen, of course, but I fail to see what's wrong with standard adhesive methods which use a type of silicone, I believe, that sticks very well and will leave no residue on the screen should it need to be removed. I applied mine at my work (which has no carpets) and that worked very well. Previously I'd done the job at home and some small dust mote always got on there, despite my best efforts. Overall I think it's inadvisable to attatch anything to the device on those two areas, whatever method of adhesion it uses.

My screen protector from zagg was crap. It wasn't even cut right it was bigger than my x1's screen :\

finally dropped my phone (well, it fell out of my old tilt holder while I was running down stairs after my dog).
the bodyguardz protected real well, except for the tiny part of the corner that was exposed. I guess I'm impressed, yet yealize that they should make the corners one piece instead of having different parts meet at the corner.

Skinomi TechSkin Anyone?

Hi!
I'm looking for a protective skin for my Xperia. I bought SGP Shield but i don't like the body protection because there are a lot of spaces between the panels, and the phone may scratch easily in some places (specialy the chromed parts).
Did anyone installed the Skinomi TechSkin? In their pic it seems that it will cover better the phone without any space left uncovered.
Skinomi: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/images/B002L9FDPK/ref=dp_image_0?ie=UTF8&n=301185&s=wireless
SGP: http://mojel98.cafe24.com/eb-allcra...son_xperia_x1_incredible_shield2_contents.gif
The screen protector from SGP is impressive. I like it.
Thanks in advance!

I don't have it, but please post if you get it. I would like something that covers just the chrome, as that seems to be the most delicate part of the phone, and covering it won't affect the aluminum feel of the phone.
Let us know how the TechSkin fares!

If it's the same one that I have, then it is the best screen protector out there. Reason I'm not sure if it's the same as mine is because it was advertized differently when i got it. On ebay it was called the clear protector for xperia without the brand name you mentioned. The only similarity between the two is the fact that the skin cuts are exactly the same. because my phone is covered in all the areas and the one you posted matches that. if they mention that the protector material is the same stuff they use to line helicopter propellers, then it's the same stuff and i would highly recommend them.

Thank you! I have ordered this product. I'll post when it arrives over 3-4 weeks, and tell you what I think about it.
Cheers!

Yup, same one: Skinomi
I'm interested in the full skinned body to protect my X1, but I'm not too sure because I'm afraid of how it will end up looking. I saw a Fuze with it and if you looked closely, you could see clearly the skin lines on the sides. Is there any possibility that you could post some close up pics as to know how it looks like?
Thanks in advance!
Oh! And hows is the feel to it with the skin? Is it too glossy that the original fuze?
Thanks!!

Sorry I'm replying so late.
Well, I removed the skin from my X1 (I'm planning on buying the black housing since I have silver), so all that's on it is the screen and the battery cover. I can say confidently that it feels great. If your hands are moist, you can slide your fingers across it. Same goes for if your hands are dry. It doesn't feel cheap. And it won't stick to the sides in your pocket, you can pull it out smoothly with no trouble. If I ever get around to posting a pic, I'll do so. Cosmetically, you can't really tell it's there from a glance. Up close you can see it, but it's not all too different from an X1 without it.

I have ordered it some 3 weeks ago. It should arrive any day now. I've also ordered the leather pouch from noreve. I hope that I'll install the Skinomi only in extreme cases .
Cheers!

Skinomi installed and not worth of it
Its true that its improve the protection but lacks of stay on phone, its separates more day after day from the surface of the x1 if you puts the x1 inside a cover or in a pouch without mention the risk that you have to "WET" the skinomi to apply in on the phone! i had to get a hairdrier with me LOL. I not recommend this.

Are these scratch-proof made of military helicopter blade material like the protech & Zagg shields?

Invisible Shield

hey there,
ive searched in the "cases" thread but i havent found a solution. I think ill buy an invisible shield full body protection from zagg. for my hd2. Is this a good choice? It costs a lot of money.. is it stabile enough for 3 years without bubbles etc.?
And could pleaase someone who already has it on his HD2 upload a pic of it.. how it looks on the front and especially the back (NOW IT SHOULD BE GLOSSY) side? Please! Thanks in advance!
or if u got any alternative suggestions to invisible shield plz feel free to tell me

this thread will give you reqd info:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=580951

sorry looked through the whole thread but couldnt find it

i´ve installed the fullbody kit today, and this was very easy.
there is no air bubble or something like this.
the handling of the hd2 is amazing now, because of the better grip.
so a clearly recommendation!

i've had the full body kit on for about 9 weeks, and am very happy with it. feels great to the touch, helps with the sensitivity issue, but doesn't make it un sensitive, looks great on the hd2 (take your time fitting, and use plenty of moisture, ) fits like a lovely glove.

screen protector
I've always used sp's. Tried all different kinds. Put phantomskinz on hd, loved it. Then put it on hd2, seemed ok? Decided to try htc sp300. it was ok, until I installed swype. Noticed I had few more errors? My bud, Agoat,said take it off & try , I did, wow! Now I don't even have to hardly get close to letters to type.Still learning, but nice now. Must have transferred pressure or static? I use Imagnum case, so screen is protected in pocket. I think I'm set? lol Quig

hm? means that if im trying to put the sp (IS) off my metal cover gets damaged? in which way..?
do you have pics of it - how it looks on the back and on the front side with IS?

Phantomskins, not Invisibleshield
Sorry, posted earlier about using invisibleskin, it wasn't, it was phantomskinz, they are great.

I wouldn't put Invisible Sheild on anything it turns brown after a few weeks and makes your device look horrible. Look what it did to my poor Touch Pro. I reccomend a Vikuiti protector and a gel case for a happy HD2.

I bought one. Used it for a day. Removed. Once it hit my pocket, the edge of the shield all had fur or my pockets around it. Quite hard to clean it off. Next, I dun quite like the feeling when i grab the phone with the shield on. Lastly, it it not 100% covered. Makes it look like a half pass job to me. Wont recommend this to my friend.

bought it
Just bought a ZAGG InvisibleSHIELD Full Body protection for my HD2, will put it on and post a responce by today.

I have full body kit for the HD2 that I will not be using due to what I have seen and heard about this screen protector.
Any offers for it? Its unused.

Beware of FULL body
Not sure about just screen, but I had IS for HTC HD, not HD2. But generally speaking - it is about the same when it comes to IS, right ? Now ... I had full-body IS installed by professional in IS kiosk. Yes, they have IS kiosks in malls where they sell IS and also install them. I also tried installing it myself. And I DID take my time installing it and it looked great.
It looked great 1st 3-4 months, but then it started to peel off on corners. Now it looks terrible and I will remove it. I actually tried it 3 times !!! Really !!! Same story. And when you use pouch and frequently take out/insert your phone into it - this IS peels off even faster. Problem is that if some piece starts peeling off ... and you take out and insert your phone in case often ... that peeling becomes worse. Last time I used spare phone to let IS "sit" for a week !!!
Bottomline ... for HD2 I'm NOT planning to buy FULL body. Just IS screen protector - may be. Or some other SP. But not full body. And gel/hard plastic/metal cover. And pouch with clip
May be I'm just unlucky. But 3 times ??? I had HD from Nov 2008 and IS gave me nothing but trouble.

I installed IS for my HD2 since 10 January 2010. I bought the full body from IS website and try to install it myself. For the first time there were a lot of bubbles that couldn't be removed. I thought the bubbles would be fewer if I left it for 1 day, but I was wrong. The bubbles stayed there without any improvement. I peeled it and made the invisible shield very very wet, then paste it on my HD2. I was shocked because the result is very great. No bubbles at all. I just put the screen protector and battery cover protector because I don't like the glossy look on my matte back rubber finish.

My review on invsibleSHIELD and zaGGskin

Hey everyone,
I recently purchases a custom zagg skin and the invsibleSHIELD ,
The zaggskin is easy to put on the back of your HD2 , its a little bit smaller, but that makes the process of putting it on easier (It took me like 2 min?),
Before the invsibleSHIELD I tried various screen-protectors , but I always had bubbles or dust underneath them.
With the invsibleSHIELD I just followed instructions , and volla , no airbubles, no dust , its makes the screen even brighter.
One negative point about it, its pricey , i ordered mine during Memorial Day (50 percent off),
Regards,
PS: Sorry for my bad english

How can a cover make the screen brighter? Are these skins polarized or something? I'm curious.

All this is rubbish, I understand the need for a big silicon or hard cover to protect your phone from drops but what is the point of the invisible shield when you cant scratch the phone anyway. There is no way it can make the screen brighter, or make you see better in the sun.
Some screen protector companies even claimed that only the person looking right at the device can see the screen, so therefore if someone was trying to peak over to see what you are doing they couldn't, well I ordered that and obviously it is not true not even slightly dimmed from the sides. so don't believe everything they say.

invisible shield
i wont take the chance of scratching my screen even if its impossible
invisible shield is not only on the front but on the back too.
its less sensitive for oily fingerprints - maybe that is why it looks a little bit brighter than without. before i had it, it was difficult to see in sunlight and now its better.
plus, the device wont slip of your hand, again do to the back cover.
so, i recommend invisible shield sincerely
cheers

thumbs down
My zagg sheild pretty much rendered my HD2 useless. The screen was really desensitized way too much. I'm not surprised...the zagg shield is so thick and durable that if I didn't have to "touch use" my screen, it would have been perfect. I ended up tearing of the $20+ protector and discarding it...

The HD2 screen can be scratched, there are examples of it on this forum, just search.
Spending $10-20 on a quality screen protector is probably the cheapest insurance you could get to protect your screen if/when you scratch the protector and the scratch becomes unbearable, spend $10-20 on a new one
Though Ive not seen one before for mobile phones, there are privacy screens for laptop/desktop monitors. These screens significantly blur the image unless you are directly in front of the screen, if you tilt the screen more than 10degrees or so the screen will blur. These are used a lot in medical/financial institutions, sensitive departments within companies like HR. Ive seen these appearing on ATMs now too
I will agree there is no protector that will make your screen "brighter" that's just about impossible, anything put over the screen is actually going to attenuate any light coming though it, though it may not be perceivable. Certain protectors may eliminate screen glare, making the screen easier to see in certain lighting conditions

ohhh yeah, believe me the screen CAN be scratched! got two very nice ones to prove it. lol

Well about the brighter , i have the the shield now for a week, the screen looks better because there are no fingerprints on the screen , further its scrolls smoother

Sorry but I'd stay clear from Zagg's Invisible Shiled as it is not really effective nor fully stand their claim "as advertised".
After 3-4 months of use (in tropical countries or desert areas), the sands/dirts snug into the linings, then started to peel off little by little.
Had this product on my Fuze and then my Topaz a while back, not very happy about it.
The only good things about the product is (1)fancy retail packaging, and (2)their screen protector. Sorry.

This cover is useless. I removed it after a couple of hours. What's the use of having a screen protector that doesn't cover the whole screen? Apart from the fact that it makes the screen look ugly.

It needs to sit for at least 12 or more hours to let the solution and bubbles disappear. If you had it on for a couple of hours and not days, then you did not read the instructions If applied properly you should not see it. If it looks ugly, it was not done properly or you did not let it cure long enough before using the device.
I have noticed that not all of the plastic used with Zagg products seem to be the same. I have applied one on my Tilt2 (aka. Touch Pro 2) and it did not feel like the texture of an "orange peal" like I have seen written in some reviews. I no longer have the Invisa Shield on the screen as it started to come up on the edges by the chrome phone edging causing lint, dust, etc. to collect under. I also noticed it turn a slight yellow. The colour change was odd as I don't smoke or hang out with smokers. It could be from rubbing against the lining of my leather case I kept it in (although it has a black lining).
At my work we have a Zagg promo for Apple iPads and this is where I have come across the "orange peal" texture on a few of the installs. I don't think it is due to improper install as we always use the same solution and method of install for each one.
In short:
the pros: it protects well against scratches and minimizes the look of finger prints
the cons: could gain a yellow tinge after several months, not easy to remove dust/dirt if it gets under edges, and not easy to apply first time around for most.
My advice for capacitive screens is to not spend lots on a screen protector. The cheep vinyl protectors may not look as good but will work just as well. Remember: all capacitive screens are made of glass which will not scratch under normal use. If you keep your phone in your pocket, the chances for scratching will increase as sand or tiny bits of gravel can collect in the lining and rub against the screen. Even keys can scratch if enough pressure is applied. For those who saw the YouTube HD2 scratch test, did you see how much pressure was applied to the keys, knife, and scissors? Not enough to scratch it, add enough and it will...

How many times there have to be said that this capacitive screen is not made from GLASS, there are enough people one the web which HD2 got scratched, believe they will scratch

I have the full body zagg skin. Gotta say it's great. Simple to apply and really keeps the device from getting scratched. Even protects the corner. Don't get what the complaint above was about. It covers the screen so wtf are you talking about? Only thing I wish they'd fix is that you can't apply a skin or case over it. If you do it'll get stuck to it unless it's like a cloth case or something. Hope they fix that issue one day. Still not bad, plus I did like the OP and ordered on Memorial Day for like 12 dollars.

Glue softens
I have to say I was happy for around 5 months - until it started to get warmer. Then the glue started to soften and smear out from under the shield. It made the screen look a bit of a mess and ultimatly the corners started to flap about because all of the glue had gone. Contacted Zagg customer support and they admitted this can happen when warm and humid. They suggested I use their replacement service but why should I pay around 6€ for postage in both directions if as soon as it gets warm it will be a mess again. Not very impressed. I'll stick to the electrostatic screen shields in the future. Can anybody recommend one?

Invisible Shield by ZAGG for xperia play

Has anyone tried the ishield? Its cool man. WHat can you say about it?

I ordered the best skins it is same quality and cheaper price but much more clearer than zag and of the same quality. Just fitting it now takes time if you want to do a proper job like me i will upload pics of it when i am done.

Just bought the body one as the screen protector it comes with is great and a better job than me doing it.....

I have been fitting thease things for years and can do a very profesional job of it you cannot tell there is a skin on it when i finish with it i think mine will be finished today i hope but its looking good.

I strongly dislike the Zagg protective shields. The touch feel is horrible with them on. I rather get some scratches than use them. I had one a little while on another phone but ripped it of after a few hours.
Besides. There's already protection on it? I would like to get another one of those original ones instead. You can hardly see nor feel it.

Well i guess that's your opinion.

Hi vdciii.
I've had the invisishield installed on my phone. Since you're also from the Philippines, there is an official store that installs them with lifetime warranty (if it gets torn or damaged, 400 for "shipping"). So if the protector gets loose, they can also fix it for free, just do this before dirt gets in. I got it for only P1500.
The only thing I dislike about it is that there's a certain friction with your finger sometimes that annoys me, but it works. It also gets a bit finger print dirty but nothing a good wipe can't fix.

hello!
yeah, i find it a little bit annoying too. but for an exchange of full body protection, i think it's okay for me.
But what annoys me more is the thought that not all parts are protected. the white metal on the screen part is not protected which is different from what i have seen in the sites here. i thought of double checking the other ishield for xperia play when i have time.
How's your xplay now anyway? does it still have the ishield up to now?

My xp is still protected by invishield up to now. Other than the dirty screen, I think it's good enough naked. It's just hard to find silicone/crystal cases for this phone in this country.

I have used my Invisible Shield since i bought my Play in august. Still no scratches Just bought the Play Dock too

I'm very disappointed in Invisible Phone Guard. It appeared to include more coverage bits than any others on eBay and was described as being thinner than the others and compatible with "any" case. It seems as thick as any Zagg shield and includes NO corner protection/coverage. The right-side piece only surrounds the volume buttons and does not run the length on the side like that carbon fiber style one someone else has here. Though there are pieces to cover the trim above the screen and below the buttons, it has none to cover teh silver bits on the left and right of the screen. It also includes no protection for the L & R buttons. I think the Zagg Invisible Shield option with all the extra bits would have more coverage but they don't show it on the site.
Oh, did I mention that the microfiber cloth was full of lint? Also, even though I tried to align the screen protector with the top of the screen it is touching the bottom and seems to be causing my home button to stick down. It should have been a little shorter! Before reinstalling my Otterbox Commuter I noticed that the clips that go over the top and bottom were fractured and, sure enough, they cracked through and flaked off when probed with my fingers. When I snapped in on the phone, I saw new stress fractures appear.
I'm not happy with the Otterbox Commuter either, but that's for another thread.

I dont understadn, what's the difference between this and another normal screen protector?

First of all, what do you consider "normal?" Traditional Zagg Invisible Shield screen protectors have an adhesive and require wet application, while they now have a new line of "dry" protectors that are likely more like the alternative stiff film variety (dunno. haven't seen one). The original Invisible Shield is a very tough elastic designed for things like the edges of helicopter blades and it adds what has been described as an "rubbery orange peel" texture as opposed to the smooth texture of many others. It feels a bit sticky when perfectly clean. There are many others that use the exact same material, like the Invisible Phone Guard that I mentioned earlier. Zagg charges more than most alternatives and has different options, including screen, full-body, and another that has little bits to cover every part if you are dedicated enough to bother installing it.

Its great, I have had one on every smart phone that I have had, I have never gotten scratches on it either.

I have it on mine, I think it was a bit much i payed 38$ for mine just because i got the phone for free with upgread. Its the full shield and its not so bad. Makes ur phone super glossy. For the protection its worth it. And yrs the finger doesnot glide like it did but really not that bad this phone aint cheap rimember that. Zagg works

I have had the shield before and it covers well due to it being thicker then most covers, however the feel of it is very resistive. Which I do not like.
Also, I have had 2 friends who after many months of using the shield on their phones had issues with their touchscreens going out. If I recall over time the zaggshirld will damage your touchscreen digitzer. When I finally removed my zaggshield it was all yellow.
My opnion do not touch a zaggshield yeah they really protect your phone until the touchscreen takes a crap on you.
