It's been a while since many of us got the Nexus S. For those of you that decided to go without a screen protector how is your screen now? We know its not Gorilla glass and there has been some debate if one is needed or not. So naked people, how's your screen today? (If you purchased the phone like 4 days ago please ignore this. I'm more curious about people that have had the phone since launch or close to launch)

Beautiful and scratch/mar free.
Been running naked screen since 12/16 with no regrets.
Got my phone mid-January, and I decided to play it safe. Ghost Armor. Love it and it works great.
I'm considering pulling this ZAGG off of this beautiful Super AMOLED.

Ghost Armor interested me, but there's no kiosk near here in Los Angeles.
I used to be really good at installing Zagg full bodies and other brands of screen only, but I messed up my last Zagg attempt (my i9000) and am not 100% happy with the outcome, but not unhappy enough to re-do it, so not sure I want to invest the time and money to go with the GA, especially since I would not put it on the screen, just the back.
I used screen protector on my previous phones (G1, nexus one, G2). When I got this phone I realized that I was taking care of my phones just so the second owner will get a almost brand new phone and wasn't enjoying it to it fullest.
I got the Nexus S and there was no way I'm putting cloth on this sexy screen. I'm enjoying the phone to it fullest. No scratches so far, I also take good care of it by dedicating my right packet only for her, no coins no keys, just my nexy.

Ooo ya, if there hadn't been a kiosk I wouldn't have done the GA. And you'd have to buy the whole body protection which I'll admit adds sharp corners to the phone that I'm not 100% fond of. I actually took off the side protection because it was just too damn sharp.
By the way, distorted. Have you noticed its pretty much just you and I in the mornings and that we just end up chatting?

Yeah, actually I had noticed that you and I tend to hit the same threads at the same time.
Maybe we're just the only ones on the West Coast...everyone else has hit work by now. For them, it's not as much morning as for us.

Fair enough, though I'm surprised by how early you get up. I'm only up this morning because my wife woke up with a fever so I'm up taking care of her for a bit.
I Zagged my first one but had to return it(TBH i didn't like the zagg but like to keep my phones in tip top condition as i only keep them 6 months.)
anyway CPW replaced my phone last week because the back button wasn't working but I could't transplant the zagg so went naked !
bad decision...although I keep it in a leather pouch, I noticed yesterday there is a small scuff to the screen coating near the earphone.
I love the phone but what a bad decision not to have gorilla glass or factory apply a protector!
I'm going to take it back to CPW and see if they'll replace it under sale of goods as the screen is not performing as expected - no one would expect a scuff within 5 days if their phone is only ever touched by fingers or the felty inside of phone pouch.

I don't sleep much. I was up at 3:00 AM local today, but took a short nap at 4:30 or so.
Getting old sux, you need more sleep, but can't seem to get it!
I hope the wife's not too ill.
Sorry for off-topic to the rest.
no issues whatsoever. Screen protectors r overrated.
I got mine on first launch day, and basically I used that one as my experiment phone just to see how durable the screen was in comparison to my previously owned N1. I had the phone about 2 weeks before I noticed some very light scratches on the screen. Nothing visible head on, you could only see it from an angle with a light source reflecting off of it. For the most part, I kept it in my pocket free of hard items, but there were times when I threw it in my pocket with a few coins and keys in there. My second unit I kept for about a week. I specifically steered clear of sharing my phone with other items in the same pocket. Lo n behold, another small scratch surfaced up on the display. As I said before, it's nothing you can see right off, unless you specifically look for it. Over a short period of time, using this phone without a screen protector, will develop some sort of scratches on it, guaranteed!

I have the Nexus S for 10 days now. No screen protectors but I put it in a soft pouch when it's in my pocket. So far pristine.
I've been carrying mine in a ziplock in my pocket. My pockets seem to attract lint like no tomorrow, and I dont
want any getting stuck between the screen and bezel. I wish my cases, soft pouch, and Skinomi skin would show up already.
Phone is pristine, I'm just trying to avoid micro-scratches on the battery cover.

I use ziplocks for my phone when it's raining (which doesn't happen much here in LA); I don't even need to take out of the bag to make a call or use the phone.
Ive had mine for about 6 weeks now...just before christmas i got it. Up until about a week ago i used it with no screen protector. Its fine as you would expect. But anyway i been using a screen protector for about a week now, and i feel a lot better...i dont have to worry about any little accidents or anything.
Screen responds exactly the same...no issues.

What protector is the best for clarity? I have a Zagg and it isn't the best for clarity.
I have seen a realook on a captivate and it looks great but they don't make one for the Nexus S.

Seidio and Steinheil. Clarivue is also good.
Ghost armor all the way! No issues here with it. Had it on my g1 and it kept the phone perfect for 2 years. That one was applied by the kiosk. Don't have one real close to me now in this state but after applying these things now in a few phones I could probably do it in my sleep. Nothing under my screen and it looks and feels great. No clarity issues and it seems the film self heals scratches. You can just barely see orange Peel in certain angles under the light but you can't feel it. I had the zagg before and its utter crap in comparison. The zagg is very bumpy and the thickness of it doesn't feel right on the phone. I've found the ghost armor to fit better as well. I originally wanted a static type like realook but with the curve of the screen it doesn't seem any of those type will fit as flush as this one.

I recently purchased a packet of mybat-branded fitted screen covers for the Cricket Zio, part CRKM6000LCDSCPRTW. It appears to be a decent fit. Light sensor, LED and earpiece cutouts are within 0.5mm tolerance. Soft buttons are covered, does not overlap the hard buttons or trackball recess.
Now to see how it holds up. Or not. It may well be good, but my caffeine-addled hands cannot get it to go on straight, before the sticky gets covered in lint.
Ive got ghost armor on my screen. Gonna have the rest done later this week. Free replacement armor since it is covered in the price.
my soft keys are covered same as yours.

first time I had tried to use that type of screen protector on a different phone I didnt have as much luck.... same type of protector but when I squeegeed it down I think I pressed to hard and caused it to orange peel on the surface... it worked great to protect but just didnt look that good.....
this time though on the Zio it went down smooth as can be and more or less looks like its not even there.... only place you can really tell is where its cut to go around the trackball and hard keys... and for the price I am SUPER happy with it..... no scratches (even with a diamond earing that is KNOWN to destroy phone screens) and I personaly feel it adds a bit of smoothness to the screen when your touching/sliding things around on it.... for 4 bucks I aint complaining!

They do the sides and back aswell ad top and bottom. At that point the only thing hurting your phone is being run over, dropped from a decent 10+ feet, water, and yourself.

I got tired of the hard case, and decided to carry my phone naked. Heck, first day having nothing on it, I got scuffs! I realized I should have applied some NuFinish car wax on my handheld prior to going naked, but I didn't.

I would have agreed with you three days ago, but I've carried my ZIO naked for a year and a half, and it's fared pretty well for being in a desert. Anyway, I hit up T-Mobile (I own a cricKet ZIO) for a screen protector only they give out, and for fifteen dollars, I'd give my full seal of approval. Straight up. It improves screen smoothness by 60%, and protects 90% as well as Zagg Invisible Shields for 25% less.

I picked up the 3-pack of Att screen protectors from the att store the day I got my phone. They came with a cleaning cloth and applicator. Application was super easy and the feel of them is really smooth (much better than the squeaky feel of the zagg/invisishield ones). No water solution for these either. Its been a couple days now and absolutely no lifting and no bubbles. They're about an 1/8" too short to completely cover the entire front face of the phone, but they do cover the entire display no problem. If you line them all the way up to the bottom they will go to a little over the 'LG' logo up top. Oh and no affect on the touch screen sensitivity.
So if you don't feel like waiting for screen protectors to ship to you then I definitely recommend these at $10 for a set of 3.

Thanks for the review, they sound great! I have these coming Monday, along with my new Thrill 4G

I usually get Screen Protectors from Realook, but they won't have any out for the Thrill 4G/Optimus 3D for until the 24th, and I didn't want to wait to get protection on it, I will report how they are when I get them.
You guys outta try the screen protectors from Smartphone Experts from the Android Central Store. I have used them on my Inspire and they are great. After 2 months of use in a tire shop there are no scratches on the protectors. Easy application and they are available for the Thrill. They are $12.95 for a pack of 2, but they are worth it.

Thanks for that. I've tried a lot of cheap ones on other phones that get scratched up real easy and need to be replaced a lot. I'll see how well these art ones hold up.
Hows the feel on those ones? I hated how the zagg ones had that 'squeeky' feel.

Zagg has the full body protectors for the thrill also. I'm waiting on a 50% off code before I get mine though.

It is actually very smooth. Easy to slide your finger around. Unlike most, it is just a little thicker than others. It is definitely not squeeky feeling. It has just enough of a matte finish to be strong, but doesn't sacrifice screen clarity. All in all, you will be very pleased with the purchase and chances are likely that you won't want to go with anything else.

How do you guys apply these? I have two dogs and even though we vacuum and clean a lot, I still seem to always get some hair or dust particle under the protector when applying. Lately Ive been turning on the shower and closing the door and the air thick with water keeps the particles down.

The same here, I run a shower for a few minutes to steam up the bathroom, then write dirty words on...wait, scratch that lol Okay, I clean the screen with the microfiber cloth that comes with the protectors, then use a can of air to make sure it's 100% clean, then put them on.
inspire screen protectors
Inspire screen protectors fit exactly on the screen, except they are a little rounded at the edge but you wont even notice that. Side to side and up and down it is an exact fit. So if you can't get your hands on any thrill.protectors pick up some inspire protectors and they work just fine.
I am going to try the ones from Android Central, thanks for the suggestion!
Let me know if there is any 50% codes for the zagg ones too.. I feel like those work best for me. And it's great protection and warranty
Hi Guys,
I just want to know if anyone of you have had dropped there Note on the floor or off the bed or off the table?
How did it go?
I know I did. I just got a call from someone unexpectedly while my Note was charging. It was one of those calls that caught me really offguard and I was near sleep at that time.
And I really was thrown offguard that I slipped the Note off my hands and into the.floor.. Oh sh*t was all I could utter.
Good thing our second floor in our house was.made of wood or else I could have kiss the phone goodbye.
Anyone experiencing the same more or less accident than what I had?
Care to share guys?

dropped it enough times (not to remember how many) on to carpeted floors. dropped it about 6 times onto hard floor (accidentally), twice hard enought to dislodge the official flip case and spen and battery but phone has survived without a scratch (once it had fallen flat on screen but with flip cover covering it on to hard floor and luckily survived the fall from about 2 - 3 feet height). once my child dropped it through the gap in the sofa bed and screen edge landed on the metal rods of the sofa bed and screen survived but small dent on the plastic like thing surrounding the raised screen glass.
been lucky so far but need to insure the phone soon.
Three months out and never dropped mine not one bit. I treat this thing like it came from my own sperm. I don't let others touch it because I'm afraid if anyone drops it, i won't be able to control myself and stab someone in the face.....

I just got my gnote today and luckily I haven't dropped it. But the Guy I alsmost bought his gnote yesterday dropped his while on the way to my place to sell it. The screen was broken as a result. Poor Guy.

4 times. One from 3 feet on rough asphalt. Bottom metal border scratched, screen intact.
The others were from 1 - 2 feet on hard but smooth floor, no consequences at all.
I have more complains about the back cover, it's getting worn out (the texture on the back is disspearing on some parts) from just resting the phone on tables.
Fortunately it's cheap to replace.
I work in a bar, wearing a tabard with front pockets where I put everything on as I cannot reach my pants pockets when wearing it.
Basicly it's always in front of me, while I keep leaning against the bar furniture with iron pins sticking out (to hang bottle openers and towels.).
I broke me 60$ watch glass against one of the pins, but haven't scratched the phone a single time, while (no kidding) I keep hitting it with all the stuff in my front pockets.
So, you might call me lucky for 2 reasons, 1. not breaking my screen or 2. having such awesome phone!
I might think about placing a custom screen protection from a dealer who send the wrong size of screen protectors for a 10" tablet who i can cut out, then use the metal cover I bought (Forgot the name, but is the one you protect the side of the phone with, 4 letter name)
I also dropped it from 1.5m high on tiles andit jumped quite far away with an epic slide, not a dam scratch
PV-
off the bed and off the coffee table. less than 10 times
either i'm lucky or the silicon case saves the day
Twice.. Had to repair the screen.. sigh

So yesterday I nearly destroyed my phone by placing it on my leather wallet. After doing so, I went to the kitchen and after around ten minutes I heard a loud noise of something smashing on the ground. It was my N4 that slowly slipped from my wallet. Luckily, it just hit the chair and not the ground and I only have a minor scratch in the metal bezel. After some testing I found that the glass back is stupidly slippery. It even starts to slide when the surface has quite a lot of grip. I think this is due to the coating of the glass. Funny enough, it feels really nonslip and safe holding it in the hand. So be careful where you place your phone!

Why the hell is Google putting glass on the back is beyond me. I guess none of them own an Iphone 4/4S or never heard of constant broken back glass from it. This is one slippery phone and a finger print magnet.
My iPhone 4S has slipped quite a few ties doing exactly that- sitting on my leather wallet. Luckily, I havent managed to crack it. I hope the Nexus 4 has a strong back.
Bummer... I have to get a case soon.
I put mine on my desk to charge, and the weight of the USB cable was enough to make the phone slither off the desk like a snake. Happened twice actually, I blamed the cats the first time. This phone is too smooth
Until you get a case or if you do not want to get a case then you could go to walmart, target or home depot etc. and get some of the small round rubber feet they put on boxes and vases to keep them from scratching tables and stick one in each corner of the back. They will keep the phone from sliding and help the speaker from getting so muffled when laying flat.

Same thing happened to me the very night I got it. Was watching a movie in my recliner and had the phone in the arm of my chair. Shifted slightly, heard a thump, jumped in horror.
The phone had slid down between the arm and seat of the chair, fell through, hit the wood frame on the way down. Nice big tick in my chrome bezel right next to the volume rocker to show for it.

Definitely very slippery - slipped from my hand as I was handing it to my wife to look at ~5min after unboxing. landed on the corner on our hardwood floor and spiderwebbed the back.
A case will cover it and the front is fine so it could have been much worse. I'll just wait until replacement glass backs are available

The glue used on those things like to slip, especially if they become warm like with the body temperature the phone will reach in someone's pocket. And then that glue leaves behind residue along the slippage path.
Did we really need a thread to tell people to be careful where they put their phone?
