ZAGG invisible shield screen protector video review

Hi guys, just wanted to share this video I made reviewing ZAGG's invisible sheild for the samsung galaxy ace.
Overall it is a great product, and I will highly recommend it. The only problem being that it is not a perfect fit, nevertheless it feels great and it is one of the few that offers a complete protection to the front, the back and the sides.
It only retails for $15 if you only want the screen cover, and $25 if you want the full body.
You can purchase the product in their website: http://www.zagg.com/

I searched google and many users complain about the resistive touch effect of the shield..What can you say about that?..

And what whit this corninggorillaglass.com/products-with-gorilla/full-products-list I think (I can't post it as url because I don't have eight posts)Ace have gorilla glass, but it isn't so indestructible how they say. I have on my Ace a small crack and my friend have on his Galaxy S a crack too.

Possibly. 1st gen or not. its not bullet proof . id take the screen protector just to be safe.

screen protectors tend to be rough in the beginning......but after few days we dont even feel they are there!!

[Q] Which glass is being used?

Title says it all, which glass is Sony using for it's XPERIA Z's back and front? Corning Gorilla Glass, Dragontrail, unknown manufacturer? I've seen many articles and they all seem to say something different. Anyone with a definite answer? Thanks in advance.

Front: Dragontrail
Back: Gorilla Glass II

Could you explain why on earth they use 2 different manufacturers? Doesn't make any sense to me.

No he can't since he doesn't work for Sony.
And even if he did, he would just have said that the phone uses tempered glass aka we will never? get an answer why they used different kinds of glass, we can only speculate.
Maybe one glass if better to swipe (aka touch screen) and the other has more grip??? Pure speculations:silly:

It doesn't make sense to me either. Maybe Dragontrail is very expensive and they decided to protect the screen with it ? Have no idea mate but that's what Sony confirmed on their Hong Kong press conference.

Before I got my Xperia Z I have spoken to the official Sony rep in Poland. I have asked him a lot of questions about the glass that they use on the phone. The way he explained it is that Sony has many different suppliers. The glass is supplied by either Corning (Gorrila Glass 2) and whoever makes DragonTrail. Noone will be able to tell you which glass is on your device as it can be either. You could have GG2 on front and back, DT on front and back or a mix of the 2.
Either way both glass types are tempered glass. On top of that the back of the phone has a antiglare layer on it, so if you try to do a scratch test on that glass you will take the layer off.
Hope that clarifies everything.

Really what difference does it make what glass they use? They are shatter resistant like most other phones glass screens.
There is obviously a reason they choose two different types, again it doesn't really matter, it just works.

So read/search the forums instead of creating yet another thread of the same questions, already answered so many times.

why are any of you so sure it is Dragontrail or Gorilla glas Sony are using ? they never said anything about what glass type it is... only describe it as mineral glass

All you need to care about is that the glass is strengthened in the phone, and has a layer to assist in the phones resistance to shattering. You are getting a flagship phone with high specs for your cash.
Really who cares in reality, Do any of you ask which saftey glass is in your car windscreen. If you do, then seriously get a life.

[Q] To use or not to use screen protector

Hi all. It's been over a month since Xperia Z was released. I was hoping to get some answers by people who didn't apply a screen protector. How is it going for you guys? The anti-shatter film scratches real easy? Thanks.

It's known by everyone that the anti-shatter sheet scratches fast, but you should still use a screen protector in my opinion.
That way you can never be sorry once your expensive phone gets scratched. Better be safe then sorry.

[Q] Quality of glass

*For phone users only*
What is your impression about the front and back glass ?
Are they scratch and shutter resistant ?
If I Helped, Leave A Thanks!

I find the screen to be pretty durable. If you're careful you will not scratch it. The back of mine is scratched pretty badly just above the NFC chip.

im not using any cases but i do have a screen protector on the front and i do recommend tempered glass for back because it gets scratched very easily. Glass itself seems very durable. I've been using z3c for 5 months now and everything still looks brand new. hope i helped

I have not seen a Z1 compact. While the glass looks nice on the back, yes I think it should probably be a different material because it does scratch too easily.

yes there is glass on front and back of the phone as standard, but since it gets scratched easily i put another glass on the back, and you can get tempered glass on ebay or amazon or some china shops very cheap
