There came a screen protector with my Touch Dual, which works very well, i do not see any difference in using the protector or using the device without it. So anybody out there, who knows, where to get this specific protector?
Thanks in advance.
we
PS It is adhesive, which i like more than sticking it to the screen and never being able to remove it again
the one that came with mine is ok but I messed up by having some dust underneath so I've ordered a new one from here: http://www.martinfields.co.uk/dis_product.asp?model=HTC_DualTouch&modeln=Touch Dual&prod_type=screen
I've always used Martin Fields screen protectors, IMHO they're the best! plus they're ultra clear once you put them properly you can't tell

In all my excitement when I got the Touch Dual more than two weeks ago I completely overlooked the screen protector in the box Found it but still not applied it yet
Brando already delivers touch dual protectors too.
Screnn Protector Washable?
Hi..
Do you know if original screnn protector is Whashable?
Thanks
The orig. protector rocks.
I bought some from ebay and already dropped them into garbage.
Now i ordered one from martinfields and i hope this one works better for me ...
Any other experience?
i got 3 really cheap ones off ebay which are fantastic.
they're in 3 sections, you take one side off to reveal the sticky side then put it on the screen then pull the other side off to reveal the front face of the cover.
really good.

I don't know whether it's the best or not, but I had the same problem that you do.
I bought the protector from martinfields based on the recommendations in this thread, and must say that I like it better than the original one.
It is thinner, so it seems like you need less pressure to make the screen react when you press it.
I've only had it for a day, so I really can't say how durable it is...

Are the Martin Fields and Invisible Shields self adhesive?
I don't have to glue them on do I hehe
The one that came with mine I put it on properly but then I panicked slightly and thought "How do I get it back off!" so peeled one side up just to see if it would come off, then of course got all dust and crap under the edge so it looks skanky now thus want a new one.
I only managed to do that because it was slightly misaligned and a bit overlapped at the side of the screen though not enough to notice unless you looked very closely. So how do you get them off if they are put on perfectly? I know you could use a knife but you could scratch the screen and that defeats the purpose

Don't know about Martin Fields.
Go to link in above post to see Invisible Shield. If I remember correctly, they tell you how to do things on their site. I don't have one for the niki so can't tell you for sure, but have one on my ipod and it took awhile to get on, but well worth it.
Also, their customer support is very very good.

Use scotch tape. Just stick it on the face of the screen protector and lift. Simple as that.
Btw, I've recently swapped out my screen protector because I somehow got a scratch on it. Anyway, the sales recommended one that was matte finished (as oppose to glossy like most screen protectors). I have to say, it is so much better than the traditional glossy ones. The great part is the texture. It is so much smoother than regular ones. Great for sliding your finger across using Touchflo.
However, it does diminish your off-axis visual quality. But i suppose that doesn't really matter since you don't look at your screen off-axis much anyway. It may even be a plus since you might not want the person next to you to see what you're looking at...

That's a good idea! I never thought of that, I did see something on a website about using something sticky to remove it but I was thinking of blutak or something like that and thinking that it wouldn't work very well!
A bit of grit got on my screen and I scratched the protector with my stylus the other day, another reason to get a new one, but also a good reason for leaving the current one on!
Where do you get the matte ones from?

I'm in Hong Kong so I just picked it up from one of many independently owned techy shops. I didn't pay attention to what brand it was (i basically just paid the guy and he opened it up and stuck it on for me). The next time i head back there, i'll take note of the brand.
Invisible Shield
Just installed the I.S. (bought on ebay) on my Niki...
It's been a pain in the neck to install...
It's really hard to prevent small bubbles on the surfaces...
Maybe on a white ipod has a better look but on the Niki black finish you'll see them..they're really really small but sometimes in a large number: the overall effect is as a dirty and scratched Niki...
Bigger ones could rise passing from the front/back to the lateral sides, in particular near the big 4 rounds.
The hole for the hands-free speaker was totally missing!
When in hand you can feel the sharp edges corresponding to its thickness ...
The original protector is a little bit "softer"
But...
I can have it in my pocket with no additional thickness...
Right now I was using the silicon case, but it seemed that I was calling with a tv remote control...
I was just gonna buy an Invisible Shield *Thinks*
Thanks for the info ohyeahar I was thinking of going for the Invisible Shield but now might just go for a screen protector and some sort of leather case-age. Dunno
Hi I was just wondering how many people are using their diamond with out a screen protector. I have been using the invisi shield but it's starting to peel and look pretty messy. I don't really want to have to carry it round in the htc pouch they give you.
So how many folks just stick it in their pocket and have they found the screen scratches easily?
Cheers
I'm currently using a special TPU case from CAPDASE, unlike all the other silicone cases on the market, I'd say this has to be the best quality non-leather case out there. It comes in two colors, black or silver/white. In real life it looks a lot better than in pictures. I'm also using their mat finish screen protector.
The picture is from Google.
Me
No screen protector and no worries
my original screen protector wore off and i'm going to get a new set ASAP. it's not very wise to be using the phone without one IMHO
sorry, double post
I'm not using any screen protector either (have had it for 7 months now) and so far no problems. There are a few very little scratches here and there but they are not noticeable and it doesn't bother me.
edit: just cleaned well the screen to double check and there is only one small scratch near the camera on the top right corner, but it's only visible under a certain angle and with the light reflecting on the screen. So, the Diamond's screen is ****ing resistant!
I'm using one from MArtin Field. They are highly recommended as I have purchased many of their protectors and they are very very high quality
i dont use protector and my screen is full of hairline scratches and it also has 3 reallly deep scratches
i dont care

That's not the one I got, I'm just using the regular mat one, it's not a privacy screen protector. I can't find the exact shopping link, but the package looks like this, except the one in the link isn't mat. This screen guard comes in two types, clear or mat finish.
http://www.yesasia.com/us/capdase-p...amond-pda-phone/1011133846-0-0-0-en/info.html
EDIT: The mat one has the word "Excellent" instead of "Crystal Clear" on the package, it comes with a tiny cloth too, see attachment pictures.
It's not just scratches to consider, I have had mine for a week and I just put a screen protector on when it arrived in the mail and it doesn't attract nearly as many fingerprints and smudges, I was wiping the screen constantly before I put it on but I just sent several messages with my fingers and there's hardly a print on the protector.
i used to have a screen protector on it (the one supplied) but the corner started peeling off then i got annoyed with it... so there is now no protector on it. its been like it for about 6 months. its been kept in my pocket (with nothing else) and has only collected a couple of small scratches, which would probably come out with acrylic polish.
I didn't use a screen protector and regretted it as I picked up a fine collection of scratches. This reduces the resale value of the phone and alos on a screen with such a high dpi scrthes make a big difference.
However The screen also cracked seperatley, so it's off for an insurance job, after which it will be behind a screen protector/slip case.
I used the origonal one for 6 months and it was ok till the end. Replaced it with a cheap one from Ebay and after a few weeks it has bad scratches on it.
Next time i am going to replace it with an expencive one.
At first when I bought my diamond I used the invisible shield. Took the screen part of the shield off immediately because it felt to rubbery. I have been with no screen protector since and I have some hairline scratches, but they really don't bother me. When the screen is turned on they are unnoticeable. The truth is by the time the scratches start bothering me it's a great excuse to buy a new phone anyways( even though I really love my Diamond).
Nice one cheers people. Think i'll probably replace my invisi shield it does work really well it's just a shame it's peeled at the edges. It just makes the phone look messy.
Shame they didn't make it with a really durable scratch proof screen.
Cheers
I can't do that to my phone , i have sweaty palms most of the time

This is what i got..... 10 screen protectors for $10 from ebay

They work pretty well actually..... as good as the one that came with the phone~!
Hey everyone. So I just got my brand new droid turbo and was wondering what brand and type of screen protector you are using and if you recommend it.
I understand the general pros and cons of matte vs glossy, but with the droid turbo having a quadHD display and having the pixels not so close to the top of the screen as other phones (from what I heard) should that affect choosing one over the other?
Thanks for any and all input!
Waiting for zagg glass or zagg invisishield HD... don't get anything else.
I've been a long time Zagg user, but picked up the Skinomi - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OYX80W4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Put it on last night and pretty happy with how easy it went on and the fact it fit pretty much edge to edge (a little shy on the bottom but since I'm using the Tech21 case from Verizon pretty unnoticable. A lot cheaper than the Zagg but quality seems on par. It will be interesting to see how it holds up.
The skinomi looks like a quality product. How is the 'drag' when sliding your finger across the screen compared to zagg?

Non-existent. Comparable to a Zagg HD screen, no orange peel feel on the Skinomi. I think I'm noticing a little more finger oil left behind on the Skinomi vs. the Zagg but not enough to be noticeable and not 100% sure. The screen fit is much better than the Zagg's I put on my wife and son's MotoX's.

Edit: I echo a later comment about 'dents' in the Skinomi. I imagine it's the same property that allows for self healing, but it's making me crazy. I've ordered
Motorola Droid Turbo (Verizon) XT1254 Tempered Glass Screen Protect... http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00P8V5J4I/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_RvFGub1RNXY44 and will follow up.
1/7/15 the tempered glass is great. Fits great.
Skinomi has been great so far. I also will note, that once the application fully dried there was no clarity issues (rainbowing) that I've have had in the past with some screen protectors.
I'm not having a good experience with the skinomi. Ordered two a week ago for mine and my wife's turbo, they both went on ok, yet mine had some bubbles in the lower left corner, figured it would clear up in a day or two when all the solution dried up. Wrong, instead it peeled up and would not stick back down. Contacted skinomi for a replacement, recieved Monday, today the upper right corner on the new one peeled up... Bummed.
The upper right corner on the new one had the same type of little bubbles the lower left corner had on the previous. I think it's something to do with the adhesive underside..
I installed skinomi 3 days ago and so far so good. Clarity is solid and the feel of the screen, which is important to me, is smooth . My only problem is that the screen protector gets indents easily, even when I softly press my fingernail against it. I'm not sure if they will work themselves out after a while, but I wouldn't say it's a deal breaker since the product is still doing its job well.

Unfortunately mine are not clearing up and I'm noticing more appearing Not really noticeable during regular use, just if I look for them but will have to see what the next few weeks brings...
I would advise anyone who is unsure to get an HD Clear screen protector. I've never really liked my husband's anti-glare very much. I think it takes away from the screen quality.
Skinomi no go

So it started off well enough but what I noticed is that over time it continued to pick up more and more marks in the protector which never healed and now it's starting to peel up on the edges. Time to find another brand or just go naked since they give us one free screen replacement.
Posted in the glass thread but I am pretty satisfied with this so figure I would share....
If anybody is looking for Zagg quality (plastic glossy) screen protectors I will recommend the XtremeGuard wet install. Very easy to install and after 8 hours you will not have any bubbles. I will eventually get a tempered glass version but not right now as it seems the jury is mostly out still. This is a cheap ($1.99) fix. I am super picky on screen protectors and will stand by this guy. It fits exactly edge to edge. Total screen coverage with no overhang.
For reference, I worked at Best Buy (back in the day) and always used Zagg protectors and would say this rivals it for 10% of the price. Definitely worth a try for those feeling adventurous with the wet install. I hate the crappy dry installs..

Still waiting for that tempered glass as well. I bought an hd screen protector from ebay, which left a bubbly mess... so now that Im waiting for the next brand to come in the mail, I've been going with no screen protector, and it's sooooo much better. I'm just going to have to be super careful not to drop. Not sure that I'll ever be able to use a device with a screen protector again after this.

The 'HD' dry installs are always bubbly messes. I guess that's why they sell them in packs of 6. I will never go back to them regardless if they are a name brand like Xtremeguard.
I really don't like screen protectors in general but use my phone at the gym and don't trust myself. The wet install is a solid protector until a good tempered glass comes out.

Hm, I've had some fair luck with the dry install ones. As long as you do it properly, most brands are pretty good. my favorites are tech armor and amfilm, personally, although amfilm doesnt have a screen protector for the turbo, seemingly.

Glossy VS Matt screen protector Ipad?
I noticed there are two types. For the ipad which is better ( i generally use it at home, sometimes take it outside). Whats the difference and which ones better?

If you take it outside, the anti-glare screen protectors will help with sun rays and glare on your screen, but you DO lose some quality of the image. HD will just be a clear piece of plastic that protects the screen, but fingerprints and glare are a bit more of an issue.
This fits perfectly and yet it is so economical to buy.
Covers the curve and fits perfectly, most people don't realise I have a screen saver on my phone.
Excellent value and quality.
Go on treat your phone.

As you can see it fits extremely well with no bubbles or wrinkles, my partner has one on her S6 Edge with the same results and if you saw what smashed against it in her handbag you would be as impressed as I am.
Looks great but I couldn't find it on Amazon US
Probably because I live in the UK
Doesn't Amazon UK send to USA or Germany?

looks great. I have the spigen and it has orange peel effect. like little dots all over the screen (posted on forum). Can you confirm this one doesn't have that? does picture look less sharp? contemplating this…
You have to look really hard to see i have a screen saver fitted.
I was wondering whether having one of those full edge to edge screen protectors on would be affected when putting device in to a case...are the edges, etc. likely to come loose?

@Raistlin1158
Hi mate, I'm really fed up with all the screen protectors. I have spent a lot of money for this. Wet and dry solutions. Always the same result. Bubbles and a orange skin. I'm leaving in Germany. This protector would cost approximately 15€ with shipping. What is your honesty meaning? Is it worth? Is it better than skinomi or the other named protectors?
As you can see it looks good, it works well and is cheap ... Nuff said
i have that copter screen protector for my s6 edge and to be honest it was really bad to install,
bubbles everywhere, ill try install it again and see if they come out
Really excellent screen protector
I live in Romania.
Tried many many screen protectors so far, all bad (too short, only plane part, orange peel effect, edge unsticking etc etc etc)
Finally got the right one, covers the entire screen, great texture, perfect cuts; allthough the adhesive seems a bit more sticky than usual so requires much patience.
I personally prefer to be installed right at the dealer for free, the guy is great expert.

beware don't get this… its really bad, it scratches if you ever put earphones in the same pocket. will scratch if you scratch with your finger nail..
also get it and you will get bits of paper saying give it a good rating and you will get some money back… crazy… avoid guys unless you want to be disappointed
I also have the screen protector on from OP.
He's right, you really can't see that it's on. I was really impressed at first.
Kur0ya is correct though, easily scratched by nails, being left in bags etc. It's better than no screen protector mind but you'll need to replace it every 2 months as you will damage it!

But itsn't that sort of the point? I mean I paid close to a thousand euros for this phone, and would hate have the screen shatter or scratch, 0.99GBP every 8 weeks doesn't seem too bad a price compared to ~10-20€/month for an extended renter's insurance (with a 150€ deductible, mind you) if the phone happens to fall out of my hand when I pull it out of my pocket or something.
Mind you, I'm probably not going to buy one of these, I'm waiting to see which one of the few actual tempered glass protectors will be the one to go for, and spend a little more on that.
If only the screen proctor can turn out well, but it has poor ratings on Amazon.
Has anyone found a pretty decent case/tempered glass for this device as of yet (Any budget)
Pictures are awesome if provided, would love to see what our community had found so far. (I can't seem to find one that fully seals the entire screen instead or simply the edges)
All tempered screen protectors that have come out so far appear to completely suck. They've all been the type with only a thin strip of adhesive along the edges, thus making them come off really easily. I sincerely hope a good one comes out soon. If one doesn't in the next month or so, I might just get one of the crappy ones, but purchase the overpriced ($30-40) version from the T-Mobile store. They will replace it for free everytime you come in. This would definitely save money and frustration in the long run over repeatedly purchasing the cheaper ones.
I ordered the Ringke Fusion-X case, but they only became available a day ago, so it only arrived today. I'll update with a short review when I get home from work. I've had one for another device, though, and really liked it. In the mean time, I've been using this $5 clear TPU case, which is exactly what one would expect if they've ever had one before. I will note that the buttons are a bit difficult to press, but otherwise it's perfectly fine. I chose this one over the other similar ones because of the slightly thicker bumpers on the corners.
I'm debating getting one of the Otterbox cases, but I'd really like to see one in person first, so that I can evaluate the bulkiness of it before dropping $60. I've always used/preferred lighter-weight cases, but then again I've never before had a $930 phone.
Update: I initially forgot to report back with my Ringke Fusion-X mini- review. It is a phenomenal case. It looks very good, and being able to see the back of the phone through the 100% clear back is nice. The somewhat thick rubbery-ish edges offer a great deal of protection without excessive bulk. If my previous experiences with similarly styled Ringke cases are and indicator, it will greatly increase the chances that drops will damage the phone. It also feels very great in the hand, and provides very good grip. Also, the buttons feel VERY good, even to the point of being nicer to press that the phone's buttons are without a case at all.
Although it would certainly be even more protective, it's unlikely I will end up ordering the Otterbox, as I feel confident the Ringke will adequately protect my phone given my usual degree of phone violence.
I can't speak to screen protectors but I had picked up the Spigen Rugged Armor case and it is excellent.
All of the screen protectors have been garbage thus far. As mentioned, you either get stuck with the black ring around the edges, thus losing screen space or bubbles because they dont adhere to the curved edges. Tried two brands and bot were a waste.
The cases all seem to be more or less the same. At least the TPU ones anyways. Tons for $5-10 and no major advantages I can see. Otterbox says no screen protector so you enjoy the display more. Code for we dont wanna make one that works well. YMMV though.
I've read that the one T-Mobile sells is pretty decent (if expensive). The reddit user who posted about it said hr believed it had the full adhesive, rather than just around the edges like the others I've seen, so that should help it not come off as easily. I'm probably going to get one today if they have them in stock. Also, a nice thing about getting one from them, which may justify the price, is that they will replace it for free whenever necessary.
This is the model.

Does this have the black border around it or is it all clear?

Unfortunately they did not have it in stock, so I had to order it for delivery. I will report back within the week (presumably), after I receive it. Pics, too, hopefully.
While I'm waiting for "IQ Shield LiQuidSkin" I ordered "PULEN Screen Protector"... I'll keep you updated!
I'm having a very hard time finding anything decent that seals completely with any rainbow effect going on

Which one? There are two, one with the black border and one without. I ordered both but have only tried the one with the black border. Fit was nice but touch sensitivity sucks. Didn't seem like it adhered well. Had rainbow affect in the middle.
If anyone finds a glass protector without the stupid notch and covers the camera lenses please post here. I want full coverage like my V10 had. Didn't seem to affect the cameras at all. I want one that just has a hole for the speaker. A rear cover and camera lens protection would be nice as well.
