BestSkinsEver (Screen Only) (Pics & Vid)

Hey guys,
Following my HTC ONE X BestSkinsEver Thread:
I decided to stick with them and go for the screen protector only, as i dont require the full body on this tablet.
ive had the Skin on for only a couple of days, and its already looking pretty close to perfect right about now.
things to know:
Wet screen protectors will always produce some Orange-Peel-effect, even if they say they dont - however, ive found BestSkinsEver to be significantly less than ie. Zagg's Invisible Shield, Bodyguardz, Skinomi etc
Touch Sensivity is the same, as seen the video.
Swiping has little drag as with any protector, it will never be as good as the naked glass screen, but VERY little.
Installation Tips:
Use large bowl of warm water, add 1 drop of washing up liquid and rinse bowl until all soap has vanished
Soak your fingers in this water before peeling off the protector from its backing to prevent fingerprints.
Peel it off & soak the damn thing, shake off the excess before applying.
Align skin completely before using the card/squeegee method of removing the water underneath.
Grab a card, if possible wrap once in a microfibre cloth to prevent damage (not essential, just recommended)
Squeegee from the middle outwards, and only Lightly press - use the side of the card, never the corners.
If you need to re-lift the skin to re-apply, completely remove it slowly to avoid stretching and soak in the water again. (remember - wet fingers)
Good Luck, All the best.

Thanks for the heads up!
I'm gonna return my XO Skin and order a BSE. I hate the rubbery feel of the XO skin when I try to swipe across the screen. I do love the smooth feeling of the BSE from my past experience of having it on my phones.

I really like the way it looks a lot ans thanks for the heads up about the future discount. Will be looking into it

Your welcome, hope I took enough pictures *sarcastic*
The video was just a bonus, as I did that in my previous HTC One X thread for BestSkinsEver

If SGP hasn't released a protector yet (I haven't looked) then this is probably what I'll be going for. I had a full body protector for my iPod Touch from them and it was great.

And today they announce their newest version of their skin materials. Hopefully anyone who has gotten one recently got the new stuff.

Hi guys
Where i can buy it in UK ?

Scratch resistant screen, not so much

I write this to let go of my anger and also to warn all the happy owners of a Nexus 4.
Yesterday the Gorilla Glass 2 screen of my Nexus suffered serious wounds beeing in my pocket .. only in my pocket.
One would expect that having that technology in the screen never scratch, which made me very angry, but hey, what can we expect from LG?.
I do not want anybody to go through this disappointment, so I recommend buying a screen protector for your Nexus 4.

Try retaking the picture in better lighting without flash. I've had a screen protector on mine for a while and ended up taking it off,
maybe you had some sand/particles in your pocket rubbing the glass.

First off, follow the guy above's instructions and take proper pictures.
Secondly, you are an idiot to blame LG for Corning's Gorilla Glass 2 "failing". LG did not manufacture the glass. By your logic, you should blame Apple, Samsung, Motorola, Google, and Aliens for it too.
Third, if you didn't already know that Gorilla Glass is not entirely scratch proof and why screen protectors are necessary, it is your own fault. This has been documented, even on YouTube for those unable to read, and proven as to why it is not really scratch proof like it is advertised.

Do you put the phone in a pocket in jeans with metal studs? You know like the small copper studs that are on jeans. My right pocket has them to attach the pocket, but the left does not. Therefore I only use the left pocket.

Dudes, dudes. take it easy
The important thing for this post is to protect your Nexus.
I know it was my fault, but you know, being angry say many things. I had a Galaxy S i9000, and never had a scratch in a year and a half, expected to be the same with my Nexus.

Stop playing in sand.:laugh:

Physically it could not have happened unless you had metal studs as someone mentioned, or there was grit in your pockets. It's scratch resistant, not scratch proof. It's physics, nothing more, nothing less.

Has been discussed in most review threads, please post in one of those. Thanks
Beware - WEAK Gorilla Glass! Scratches out of nowhere
Nasty scratches, just on day two!

[REVIEW] Gadgetshieldz screen protector for the Note II

I had been searching for a screen protector that covers even the curved edges of the Note II screen, offers best clarity and best protection. Heard a lot about gadgetshieldz being very good .Having personally used it for my brother’s iPhone 4s I thought that I’d give it another try. And now that I have installed it, I can vouch for the fact that indeed it’s a great protector to have for the Note II. I couldn't find a review of gadgetshieldz for the Note II. Thought I should post a short review with a few pictures.
Okay, so first of all living in India things like an SGP case is really hard to come by or really expensive. I got to say that gadgetshieldz is really by far the best and cheapest option that offers this kind of protection. Another thing being gadgetshieldz operates in India and offers free home delivery. The thing arrived pretty quick too, in about 2 days. For all the Indian members interested in purchasing this you can head over to this page.International users can head over to www.gadgetshieldz.com. You get 3 options basically: 1) Screen Protection 2)Body Protection 3)Maximum Protection. A thing with the Note II is that after some use, the silver bezel starts to wear out. So I obviously went in for the maximum protection.
I should warn you though that this is a WET install. A very cool thing about this is that has a perfect cutout for the proximity, light sensor, front cam, speaker grill & the home button. All the cuts are precise. It also comes in some pretty neat packaging which gives it sort of premium and high quality feel. All the instructions of application are given pretty well, so there shouldn't be a problem in the application. On application if there are any bubbles formed, you can flatten them out with a credit card or something of the sort. As for the small bubbles, they should disappear with time. The front and back side were pretty easy to install. The sides being curved were a pain in the A$$ though.
The screen protector looks fabulous on both, the screen and the body. The clarity is awesome and does not compromise the display. In fact it's very hard to notice that there is a screen protector on.With the protection on the sides and back, you can say goodbye to any more scratches.
Please hit the Thanks button if you liked the review.

Thanks mate! I really like the cut of this sp and I don't mind a wet install.

RED SHIELD Screen Protector

Ordered it a week ago on Amazon and it came in Friday. Just picked up my device and it is a very high quality screen protector. I highly recommend it and it came out flawless. very easy to install with no bubbles or lint of any kind . Here is how the package looks

It came with 3+1 free.

Font on the packaging looks like Spigen. I just ordered some too. Hoping that they are as good as you say.

thats what I thought aswell. its a quality protector

I got these on Amazon while I decide whether or not to keep the device. If I do I'll get a glass screen protector, but until then these are really great. Perfect fit and you can hardly tell it's there.

Going to have to disagree about these. I've owned multiple smart phones and screen devices, and have installed many different brands and types (dry install, wet). These went on terrible, even using the shower method. They are just a legit square, making it impossible to line up since you can't tell how much of the bezel or not it protects (tough to get on straight, tough to tell how far up or down on the bezel it goes). I'm going to have to order a better brand, such as Spigen.

mine fits perfect. I have no space on the edges and looks great.
I have 7 left. good enough for me :good:

Check your black model for air bubbles under the front panel

Just returned my SGS5 due to an air bubble or something under the front panel.
I've seen a lot of black SGS5 with this issue on one of the corners or around the home button. It is visible with sunlight or under a lamp. You need to pass your fingers around the front panel and then they will appear.
Check these pictures I took to see what I mean:

On the white model it can't be seen. Only on black ones.
Check to see if you have it.

Mines fine....had it since release

That happened to my friend but only after he dropped it, luckily on the carpet. Very cheap work from Samsung on a flag ship.
And it's really annoying... any way to fix it?

I had that develop - had the phone since launch day and the bubble developed 2 weeks ago. I took it into Samsung repair Centre and they replaced the screen within the day.

Disappointing to see such quality issues on their flagship.
Checked mine, looking fine so far, have it since launch.

It's mostly noticeable on the black model and in daylight at certain angles.
I've also seen it around the home button.
I've checked several black ones with this issue on stores.

None of them have the tempered glass screen protectors do they? I would hate to see everyone freaking out because their screen protector isn't lined up exactly how it should and creating the same problem.
I can speak from experience. Not that I thought my screen was messed up, but from how there is 0% tolerance with some of the tempered glass screen protectors and they need to be lined up perfectly or else around the corners they will have air bubbles exactly as everyone here shows.

Yes. Mine too, but the glass protection has been changed from 2 monhs ago. There is no scratch on it and I don't use cover

It's a really weird issue.
A guy above said he's was fine and the bubble appeared 2 weeks ago.
Is this something that can appear at a later time?
I think this is due to the waterproof protection.
