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.

Invisible Shield by ZAGG for xperia play

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

I went with bestskinsever too but not fitted it yet, will do today or the weekend, can post pics if need be....
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.

i got mine for resale purposes, not that im planning on selling it any time soon, but a mint condition, sim free, white xperia play r800i should go for more then a scratched black one

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
Sent from my R800x using Tapatalk

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.

I bought a XOskin screen protector and also their carbon fiber back protector. Used the N10 with the protective film for several days but then removed it. I was thinking about returning the carbon fiber skin beccause it's too smooth compared to the rubberized back of the N10.
After just a few days of usage, what little tackiness the rubberized had is gone and it's fairly slick. I'm not about to clean it with whatever every few days to bring back what little grip it provided. I may slap the carbon fiber skin on after all.

Uh.. I have a hairline scratch in the corner and i still had the factory cover on and babied it. Gorilla glass doesn't protect worth crap.

I decided to raw dog it, too, and see what happens. I've put protectors on every portable device I've had since...well, almost ever. But, when I got a replacement Galaxy Nexus in July, I never got around to putting a protector on the screen. Despite being some off-brand "fortified glass", it's totally unscratched. I take some care to avoid scratching it (nothing else goes in the phone pocket) but I don't carry it in a any kind of case or pouch. Since my Nexus 10 will be treated even more gently (i.e. not living in my pockets), it should be fine without a protector.
If I'm wrong, I'll put a protector on my OLED retina tablet in a couple years.

I've also been using my Galaxy Nexus with "fortified glass" (tempered, but not Corning Gorilla Glass) since the device was released (a year?) with only the 2 part Incipio case that Verizon Wireless sells for it (silicone liner, hard shell around it) - glass completely unprotected. I put the phone in my pocket (pants, shirt, jacket, etc.) every day, use the phone a LOT, have taken it to the beach (generally throw it in a ziplock bag), put it in my backpack, etc, etc. Not single visible scratch on it -- and I'm a stickler for this, as little flaws somehow always manage to grab my attention more than they deserve. Not saying that it's bulletproof by any means - but with reasonable care, my phone with bare glass still looks brand new. The N10 has Gorilla Glass 2 -- again, not impervious, but should hold up quite well to normal wear and tear. I enjoy the bare glass SO much more than the slightly rubbery feel and drag of a protector that it's worth a bit of extra care for me so I can get away with a bare screen.

I have the full body protection. Was a bear to get on, took 2 hours of my time to get all the pieces on and it did not go smoothly. I used to think I was pretty pro at putting wet application protectors on but this is a HUGE device and getting big vinyl film pieces wet and then onto the device without parts folding over and sticking to itself, etc was a night mare. I even messed up the front protector. Loads of bubbles everywhere after over a week. Not BSE's fault at all but I told them of my situation at the same time that I noted my N4 protectors did not have a proximity sensor cut out and they sent me a new full body kit for the n10 for free with my n4 screen protectors. Great customer service!
Can someone who has the full body protector, installed, post some pictures? I would love to see what a device looks like properly installed! I saw the video for XO and they aren't nearly as hard because, well, they aren't really full body protectors. They have one piece that protects the clam shell for the most part in the back but that is it. All corners and sides are completely exposed. Maybe this is good, as there's that nasty edge seem feel from the little individual pieces, but still. If I can't master the full body kit installation this, I'll just rock it with the front screen protector from BSE and order a dry carbon skins back cover from XO. Those dry carbon things are really really easy to install... you can even peel them off and re apply them on another device and it will stay. Loved that type of protector on my Galaxy Nexus. They are not as poor feeling on seams either.
Nevertheless... can someone please post pictures?

Best Skins Ever

I've had my BSE screen protector for about 2 months. On the positive side the cut is very precise and if you're experience with installing wet apply protectors it's quite easy.
The material itself is a bit grippy and definitely not as smooth as dry apply protectors. Initially the self healing properties of the skin were reasonable. However after 2 months every small indentation from pressure being in a pocket remains permanent. My screen protector is now super ugly to the point friends laugh at it.
I wondered if this was normal or just unlucky that I got a defective batch. I contacted BSE and they told me it's just normal wear and tear. I was definitely a bit surprised that this is normal for 2 months of use. I've never had this with any other protector I've used.
The other factor that made me want to try this brand was there 5 star review on their site. Out of 6 reviews every reviewer gave it 5 stars. I recently tried to post my honest review on their site and low and behold my review, less than perfect, was not published. Now I see why the rating is what it is. Deceptive marketing.
In the end the company offered me a replacement out of 'goodwill' if I paid shipping. They then sent me a bill for $3 which doesn't sound like a lot but their shipping cost is way less since it's just a standard letter.
Overall, I would not buy another BSE product since they develop permanent marks after 3 months.
Will post a picture when I have a chance.

here's a picture of the bestskinsever after 2 months.

Jesus Christ, that is ugly.
How much did you pay for the screen protector?
I've had some issues with glass screen protectors but I'm now using a "cheap" alternative I found on Amazon that's identical to the £40 glass screen protector I initially had that I messed up when installing. I only paid £11 for a pack which includes a film protector for the back; however all glass screen protectors have SOME sensitivity issues and I've had it with this one too, but it's not too bad.
However I don't use my edge screen in the extreme corners. (I am also using a case which affects this).
Just an idea as it's relatively inexpensive.

I generally carry my phone in my pocket but almost always there is nothing else kept in the same pocket.

Had my BSE front and back protectors on for 3 months and still look brand new. Bought them for my S7 Edge after having a BSE protector on my Galaxy S5 for 2 years and it still looked mint after all that time.

Had mine for at least 3+ months, looks nothing like this, I don't know how you managed that. Certainly the best normal screen protector I've ever used. Only issue is the case cut works better with some cases than others, but that's no fault of theirs.

I've used many brands of wet-apply protectors. All have been used the same way. None have ever looked like this. I was just surprised that BSE described it as normal wear and tear so I suppose this is what they expect after a couple months.

I haven't used a liquid apply screen protector in years. When I used them, they were new tech for phones, were sticky, and often had an orange peel look to them. And they got deep impressions in then from other objects in your pocket.
I loved them at first, especially as a total body skin. I eventually switched to the plastic PET protectors because they felt smoother and slicker, but attracted fingerprints. After that it's been nothing but tempered glass screen protectors.
Now that I'm using the S7E, I've gone back to the liquid application screen protectors. After research, I settled on the Yootech from Amazon.com for $8. I put one on my wife's phone first about three weeks ago and have been very impressed with the fit, feel, and clarity. She keeps her phone in a pocket or purse and I haven't seen any marks on the screen. So last night I put the same protector on my phone, and am again very impressed.
It isn't as slick as glass, but nowhere near as sticky as the old Zagg and similar liquid install protectors. My finger glide over it very easily and smoothly, and the orange peel effect is nearly non existent, unless you look at just the right angle in the direct light. And it doesn't attract fingerprints. I wouldn't say it's oleophobic, the prints just don't show up as much.
I say all that to say, my experience with these type of screen protectors is very limited, especially in newer brands, but if BSE isn't satisfactory, you may try the Yootech. I just ordered the BSE body protection set, so I'll be curious to see how it holds up.

No, no, no. Can't recommend spigen screen protector at all. Bought it one time and my corners piled off next day. Several months later I bought it again, thought that maybe they fixed something but i was wrong. Bought spigen second time yesterday, before it i was using best skin ever. So today i saw same ****ty piled off corners and ordered best skin ever again.
I don't understand how they are selling those screen protectors if from 4 times i applied them all times i got the same result. It sticks very nicely but next day corners starts piling off.
So in my opinion best skin ever is best choice for s7 edge.

i've been using an armorsuit wet apply one. it isn't glass but it much better that the BSE I had. Looks a lot smoother in comparison.

Skinomi Full Wrap review

So I purchased a Skinomi full Techskin kit about $13, to wrap the sides and back of my Note 8. The application of it was pretty simple, there are videos online for it, on how to do it. The only weird thing about applying it is it pretty much doesn't stick at first when you place the solution on it, then as it dries it gets super sticky right away out of the blue. You can be moving it one second, then it just stays and is almost completely stuck on. You need to press down the edges and all and it takes about 45 minutes or less, but just keep revisiting it to press it down more. The back was ok, got some cloudiness (which they say is normal for a day or so) and maybe a couple of slight bubbles but I don't really care, it was mainly to prevent scratches. Attached are the pictures of what it looked like when I got it, and what it is like on the phone. You can feel it for sure, not as smooth as it transitions from one part to the other, but again, I got it to prevent scratches. I did not place the screen protector on it, because I was putting on tempered glass.
In addition you will see tempered glass, which I actually surprisingly feel like its good. No loss of feel at all, it just doesn't go all the way to the edges but the edge features all still work. Its a Luuvvit one, which I bought from amazon for about $11.00

Looks nice. Beats what I have on mine right now. Mine looks like a high 5 year old did it.

Holy crap that was funny!

I did mine too with a skinomi full body skin before putting it into my case. I always full body wrap every phone because.....Why not? Dirt ALWAYS makes it's way between a case and the body of a phone. The skin keeps the dirt off and keeps the body like new! The guy at T-Mobile didn't believe I had the S7 Edge for a year until he looked up my account!
Fyi I dropped it on concrete and asphalt literally over a hundred times.
I'm not using the skinomi screen protector though. My Zizo Bolt case came with a Tempered glass protector that seals on the edges, but I've been super impressed and will keep it on until it breaks. Zizo is an awesome company! No sensitivity loss and super clear. Also no rainbow or bubbling. Yes there's a small dot matrix pattern though ( UGH ) but it's not visible at all on the screen while it's on, even in the sunlight.
I had the bolt on my s7 edge too. I love the case and it held up just as good as any otter box defender which I've used on tons of other phones. Like I said, it's been dropped a lot! Lol
Oh and a heads up...... hit it with a hair dryer and let it sit a day before using any tight fitting case or you will peel it up as you put the case on. Been there and done that. Learned my lesson. I LOVE skinomi skins but I equally like the IQ Shield too. Both make good stuff. IQ SHIELD feels a hair less rubbery but both are great!

I always use skinomi screen protectors. Never got the full wrap since i always use a case.
My s8 plus, I have the skinomi screen protector and a rhionshield crash guard all works great together and the back of the phone doesnt touch so it never got scratched.
Order the same for my note 8. Im waiting for my crash guard to come in. probably at the end of the month, ill be caseless then then
And a tip is to lightly spray the phone. Then lay the protector on and push the bubbles out from the inside to the edge. Then run your fingers up and down the edges for a few minutes and it should stick. Then i let dry for 5mins and then rub everything again.
been doing that since the note 4 edge and has always work.

Trust me even with a case, use a full body wrap! It not only keeps dirt off but acts as another cushion for impact even with a good case. They are worth the money for our nearly 1000$ device lol

How does the screen protector feel? Just like the back part? Or is it different material?

I did a blind test with my wifes phone before (she remove hers from one of her old phones. I believe the s7e)
You can tell which is skinomi and and which is bare. The bare is slicker.
But overall if its very smooth and people wouldnt know it was there. 100% clear and no gel or ruff feels to it. Ive been using them for years and to me there the best.
Also you can get a 2pack for around $7 ship so if one wears out you can just put the other one on.

SKinomi has been a weird brand for me. It gets decent reviews but sometimes people hate it. I always get Skinomi for all my phones, imported to Korea because they don't sell them here. I love how thick it is, compared to other "films", which means extra protection. I also like how after a while the solution just seems to have some kind of a chemical reaction with the film itself, and makes the film look very glossy and clear like .... actual glass. Once I get a Note 8 again, I will probably put dome glass on the front, and another layer of skinomi on top, and the back will only be protected by Skinomi. I swear by this stuff, it's in a different league from other films.

Ahh actually, yes it shows the s.Pen marks, so don't put one in the front. For the front, use Glass dome, for the back skinomi. THis is the only one I could find on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Galaxy-Prote...sr=8-1&keywords=skinomi+note+8+back+protector
