What's the general feeling on screen protectors? I've had bad experiences myself using screen protectors for other devices with bubbles and peeling etc. etc. Do most people put these screen guards on their tablets?
Thanks ordered a Nexus 10 screen protector along with a spare Nexus 4 back protector. :victory:

I used to have problem applying dry protectors as you mentioned until I found some excellant advise which made all the difference:
1) Apply the protector in the bathroom after streaming up the room. This removes floating lint from the air.
2) Suggestions for flawless protector application:
a) "the best way to apply without anything left under is to align the screen protector secure it with painters tape over the outside , clean the screen really good, fold the protector back, and before removing the backside film, put painters tape all across covering the screen, and then pull the edges of tape and the back film while pressing the screen protector and sliding down as you pull the tape/back film together towards you until you apply the protector fully and squeegee the bubbles out, you will end up with a flawless screen, because the tape will pull all particles from screen."
b) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36632751&postcount=41
c) "I like the masking tape idea for perfect positioning the protector BEFORE even starting to remove the sticky backing. Not so sure about the additional use of tape "put painters tape all across covering" as I think the bathroom stream idea is better."
d) How to apply any screen protector on a iPad 3 like a boss - Very good, watch before applying!!!

I hope these suggestions help.
I'm very happy with my Skinomi, but at 3.75 shipped, hard to pass up as a spare.
Thank you!

I just got my 4 in the mail. 1 for the GF's iPad2, two for my son's nexus 7 (yeah, he's a kid...figured we could use the insurance) and one for my N10, as a backup. I already have a Skinomi on it.
The iPad2 and N7 were perfect.
I didn't really look at the N10 for mine, not needed yet.
When you say back piece, do you mean the two holes needed for the FFC and light sensor?
Nope what I mean was they send me the back piece without it been cut.... I should be receiving the piece same as the picture show right?

How is the screen protector? I mean do you feel comfortable using the screen with it or is it not worth it... and also, does the image change much with or without the protector? Might be buying one, cheap but if it's useless i won't mind buying it.

Bought it as a spare for my N10. I already have a Skinomi on it.
Bought and installed one on my son's Nexus 7 and my GF's ipad2. They're fine, use lots of spray/soap/water and take your time.
I think the only reason you can get it on normal shipping is because they get very low business rates, even though i still don't think they do it at a very good win for them! It does bring in a lot of business though but doing it internationally would just not be worth the money for them! :highfive:

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.

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.

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
I just received my iSmooth protectors today, the packaging is really nice and I love the cloth. I am going to install them in a bit and report back. I noticed in the package a little info card and if you post a review of the protector on Amazon and provide all the proof of review and your Amazon order number they send you another set for free with free shipping. I don't recall anyone mentioning this previously so I thought I would share the information. If you e mail them the Amazon order number, Details of the offer can be found here www.iSmooth.com/freepromo you will receive the same item you purchased or you can choose another similar product in their range. Pretty sweet deal, imo, that's 6 protectors and 2 cloths for just under $11

Thanks, I already got a reply from Paul and he's sending out a new set. I love the feel and clarity of the protector, I don't like the cut on this one, too much screen exposed. I finally got the tackiness rubbed off and it feels really nice. I pulled off the jlg protector off my mom's phone, the rainbow was really annoying her. Slapped an iSmooth on it, she's happy now.

You gonna love new version. It's on par with Spigen stuff! The width will be similar to green tint ones, but the cutouts around home button and top of the phone are better. It sticks perfectly, crystal clear, no marks from s-pen, no rainbow effects, and very easy to wipe. Not sure if it was just my sample, I did notice some accumulation of fingerprints, but it's so easy to wipe. No different than Spigen oleophobic. The most important, it feels very smooth, not plasticky at all. This clear version is going to be their new screen protector moving forward in a week or so, as told by Paul.

I just know the guy's name is Paul since he replied back to me. Sorry guys, I probably confused a crap out of everybody with my references to "old" versus "new". I just go by how I understood it originally and what others posted in the forum (I think some of those screen protector posts were removed in favor of a new sticky thread?). Just never mind that whole new vs old stuff. I would say order it, and if everything works great and you are happy - then you are done! They give you lifetime guarantee and you will get 2nd set for free with instructions they provide inside of the shipping package. Also keep in mind, everybody has their own opinion and preference. Some like wet install, others dry. Some want tempered glass, others something else. The tricky part with screen protectors, those are not like cases where its easy to try one versus the other, and then you return whatever you like, or keep a few to change it for different occasions, etc. So, if you find one screen protector you like and happy with it - stop driving yourself crazy (i'm speaking from a personal experience) lol!!! Again, just my opinion, so take it with a grain of salt lol!!!

You mean coming off the left side of the phone? In general, not just iSmooth, if glass is not clean and/or oily from fingerprints on one side then it might have issues with sticking. Have you tried another screen protector from the pack and do you see the same problem? Make sure you wipe your screen really good. I actually buy one of those eye glass little spray bottles - its amazing how it cleans the screen and even screen protector (it works on both glass and plastic).
From the picture you posted, it looks like the original cut. Paul mentioned only something like 5% of original screens were affected by an issue of not sticking edge. If you remember, Note 2 has a glass that slopes down toward the Home button. That is where the troublesome edge could happen. If you see the second protector doing the same thing, even after you clean the screen, contract them and ask for a replacement new batch.
.... note to myself: check with iSmooth if they are hiring tech support lol!!!

Any update on reviews? curious on this product as well.
I bought products from Clarivue for years but this last time I bought screens for the HTC DNA. I ended up selling the DNA while the screens were shipping and instead wanted to get Note 2 screens and was even willing to pay all the shipping etc.., but they also wanted me to pay a restocking fee on the DNA screens....even though they had never even been opened!!! The stupid fee along with all the shipping made it easier/cheaper to just order the Note 2 screens and throw the DNA ones away. Needless to say I will never do business with them again and I'd been loyal since my Nexus One days.
It was like 3 or 5 bucks and for a loyal customer of years they wouldn't waive it for me. I would have bought these glass protectors in a heartbeat if not for this...I almost bought them anyway... but stayed strong in the end.
Anyway I hope you guys enjoy them I'm sure they are nice screens. They make nice products but when I needed good customer service it wasn't there.
Any updates/reviews on this. Post seemed to have just stopped. Interested in getting an idea on how the Clarivue HD is working on for whoever has it. Bought the MIME, but I feel like sensitivity was affected when typing. It didn't register the keys all the time. Contacted MIME and they send to send it back for an exchange or refund. Put one of my extra iSmooth sp's back on and I'm happy for now. Just curious about the Clarivue.

I'm pretty pleased with mine - I didn't realize they included a sealed wet-wipe (supposedly anti-static and anti-dust formulated), so I ended up with dust particles after I wiped the bare surface down with a Microfiber cloth and rubbing alcohol. Since I figured I had nothing to lose - as I had an obscene number of dust particles under the glass, I decided to pry it out again and wash it using liquid hand soap and water.
Basically I ended up applying it like a Zagg protector using 99% Alcohol in a spray bottle as a liquid base to a) reduce dust particles and prevent water spots, b) shift the Clairvue into position. I ended up with a pretty decent job - there is only one tiny dust particle - small enough that it isn't visible unless you pull up a white background. There is no air bubble surrounding it and it only showed up a week after the initial application.
My friends who also purchased the same protector applied it successfully without the issues - as they were forewarned by me about the wipe, so I guess the wipe really does help in the installation.
They also included 4 plastic buttons for the home button - to make it easier to press the button down - it came in White, Black, Blue and Grey. The issue with these buttons is that they seem like they're for the S3 and not the Note. It still works but its definitely not the proper shape of the Note II button.
There may be a small loss of sensitivity (maybe 1%?) - but I'm not 100% certain as really hard to tell if its the app or the phone. S-Pen functions fine. The glass is really, really smooth compared to plastic ones - well worth the extra cost. Also resists oils very well - requires fewer wipe downs compared to the plastic ones.
I would definitely buy again - and I'm only including what I went through to apply it since I failed to install it correctly - yet it is recoverable and not all is lost. The adhesive layer is strong enough for some washing. I probably wouldn't pry it out now though as the adhesive has probably cured a little bit. I don't believe it's supposed to be reusable.
Hey guys, I have a problem. I use on Gear screen protector from one of my previous phone One X (nilkin). I cut small square for the gear but after one hour I find out that the screen protector is no there .
So, I was thinking that the screen protector is maybe old and does not work, so yesterday I damaged my second original Samsung Galaxy Note3 screen protector and everything looks okay. But today the screen saver is not there anymore
Any solution? These screensaver should be really good, on my phone always work very well. I am really dissapointed because screen protector from Samsung was not cheap.
I also had the same problem, first I cut one from my old S2, shifted past a few hours. So I order two from a german suplier on ebay specific to the gear, and the same problem past few hours.
The problem is in the glass of the Gear being curved.

I purchased screen savers for my Gear from a company selling on Amazon.de. I have had no end of problems trying to convince this company that though the quality of the screen saver is great the point is it will not remain on the Gear, as people above have already mentioned, the body and glass are curved. What happens is the stiffness of the saver results in both ends of the saver sticking up, getting caught on clothes and coming away.
The only solution I can think of is for a manufacturer to produce a thinner protector that will bend to shape and remain stuck to the screen?
The company I purchased from requested photos and goodness knows what. I just filled a claim with Amazon.de and got my money back. I am not going to do the R&D for the company! I bought three of them as in general screen savers can, on times, be a devil to fit.
The glass will and does scratch so take care.
Kind regards.

I use:

may not be as effective as a plastic one, but it's invisible and it's working so far. Use ot on my note 3 as well.

Did you apply to the gear camera and the metal frame as well?
I did apply to the camera, did not think to do the metal frame.
If your cutting it out of another type, I found you need to round the edges. the corners that lift up, if the are sharp, will get caught on everything

Any difference to the pictures? as in blurr or smoky? Cos the lens is plastic...not sure if it makes a difference.
I figured i'll be using the Liquid Kristall for the gear.
Since after applying you can't see a layer on the screen....makes one wonder if there is actually any protection on the screen
Has anyone had any good experiences with the Tech21 Impact Shield? I was thinking about getting it for my Note 8.

Does it go around the curved screen good? Any bubbles?

Yeah it does, as long as you install the right way. No bubbles. This video I am going to link you is for impact shield s8 install. Same concept so no biggie. Watch that video a few times so you get it right. Also order it off ebay it's cheaper. Got 1 new $20, I've seen them even lower. They normally go for $40-50 new elsewhere.
I will advise against it just due to how horrible customer service is. If you need to ever have it replaced good luck.

Removing the film number 3 looks dangerous as it looks like this is the period dust can also get in.

Use dust stickers and you won't have any issues with dust. You could also use some tape. Also you will notice there's still bubbles after installation. That's normal after 24-48 hours they disappear.

With customer service? I mean I've heard bad and good with the customer service from others in regards to tech21. Not going to lie it's been about 50/50 Good and bad from various sites user feedback.
I am mostly putting my kneck out for there protection. It seem like people where putting on screen protector incorrectly. I followed that girl in youtube video and have no issues. I will say that the screen protector installation has to many unnecessary steps.
I totally believe you. Was just curious how'd they gave you a bad experience?

That's ridiculous. I can see why your PO. Sounds like they're giving you the runaround and probably didn't even send 1 smh.
I'm wanting to get the Evo Tactical, but it won't ship when I have it in my cart. It will say there are no quotes at the time, but I can order a screen protector no problem. I contacted support earlier today, I didn't expect them to get back to me that quick, but hopefully they can help.

The first EVO wallet came over here with three scratches on the top. Chatted with Tech21, submitted a picture during chat and got a replacement in perfect condition within a few days. They don't wanted me to return the scratched case. Using the scratched one now and have another one as replacement. Perfect service. Don't they submitted a tracking nr. to you?

I find tape leaves marks to be honest. I also find not many people supply the dust removers in their packaging these days.
During the application process in the video, it shows removing film number 3. Whilst removing film number three the other hand is applying the film thus if dust lands during the number 3 process one is screwed?
I'd like to try this film as I think the material used is similar to the ONN Walmart Note 8 and s8plus screen protectors. Almost like glass but not quite. The latter would have been perfect non glass screen protectors if only they worked. Edges lifted.
I'm currently back to the same sort of screen protector that I had when I first bought my N8. The wet applied clear film that has a 2.5mm gap all the way around the edges. Seems to be the only solid ones out there. Made by Skinomi, Illumishield, Armousuit etc , $60 or so dollars later LOL
The Spigen wet applied film was nice with smaller gaps, but the peel on the film was a joke.

Masking tape is the best for this if you're going to use tape. Yeah I don't like how they don't include dust stickers with it. Also you can go to dollar store and use kids stickers. They also work for the cheap alternative. I'd go with that option.
I followed video to the T and bubbles from air pockets 24 hours later where gone. Make sure your hands clean and not in a dusty room. Bright light will help too. Because you will see dust beforehand. One more thing do it on a table.

They're not the most popular I suppose? Some people there customer service rubbed them the wrong way. But you see most us who have that brand stand by it.
