Hi theme im interesting can i take off original protective firm becouse its got hard screched ?
yes you can, but then your screen will no longer be shatter resistant... it's recommended to buy and install a new protective plastic after you remove the factory fitted one. The SONY logo will be removed

Is the xperia z definately shipping with anti shatter film on front and back glass? If so does this mark easily or show lots of fingerprints or is it recommended to put a regular screen cover on top of this anti shatter film.
Would anyone recommend removing the anti shatter film from the glass to allow for easier cleaning of the screen

No you should not remove it, and you don't have to add another one.
The glass it self is very hard to clean as it doesn't have a oleophobic coating (or at least that was the case with the xperia T). the protector is easy to clean.

Thanks for that.
Use the screen protector that is possibly provided in the box because the anti-shatter film gets scratched and we don't like that for sure!
I removed the film from the ion, and found that the screen picks up just as many fingerprints as it did with the film on there.

You should not remove the film. It's not there just because Sony wanted to put it on - it's there because it helps prevent your phone from breaking should you drop it. Just apply the bundled screen-protector on it and go on without worrying about the screen.
You could rempve it and apply crystalusion liquid glass. It has oleophobic properties and is also scratch resistant

I'm in doubt buy a protective film to use the Xperia Z, but I'm afraid to lose touch sensitivity and screen brightness too!
The anti-shatter that comes standard is very easy to scratch? I mean just scratch with normal use of the fingers!
On my Xperia S, the original film it was only scratching with normal use! I removed the film and left without!
But the Xperia Z to remove the film, the Sony comes out soon too and I did not want to lose it!
1) You left without anti-shatter film, only with him or bought another protective film?
2) Someone found to sell a new film with the logo of Sony?
You could remove the file to give it a cleaner look and then you can put on a screen protector that doesn't scratch like spigen ultra thin screen protector. But if you don't want to lose the logo put another screen protector on top. You won't lose screen responsiveness unless you get really bad quality screen protectors.
Press thanks if I helped

I bought Zagg Invisible Shield, is it good?
I have a minimal scratch on the back , used the phone very carefully but I don't know how I got it ( it's very small but it is) so it's scratches very quick ( at least in my case ) so I bought a film for the back. I will buy for the front too , but I will wait a little bit cause here in my stupid country we don't have alternatives

Is it good? I'm wondering about replacements for mine.
did you apply a protection film?
I didn`t and I can see some small scratches on my device...
also, can you suggest me a good protection film for xperia z?
There Is a pre installed shatter proof film.

but it gets very easily scratched :S
I already had a few small scratches
I suggest you try one of the various cheap hard plastic screen protectors that are available. This cost only a few dollars so you can change them once every one or two months. That's what I do with my Note II
I think the point wawyed was making was your device is not scratched, the pre-installed film is.
There are quite a few threads on this exact topic already.... you can remove the pre-installed film if you wish - but you may loose your Sony logo. There are a few good replacement films out there (Spigen)
Bottom line: remove the stock film and replace, or leave the stock film - and put yet another one on top of it.

I read some informations on the net, but I` think the pre-installed one is a different kind of film
I was thinking about using a normal film over the pre-installed one

I had applied 3M Vikuiti ADQC27 to Xperia Arc S, S, T, TX and I ordered one more set for tomorrow when I get XZ. I was very pleased with this screen protector, but tomorrow I'll decide on which one to apply them: 3M or the 2 that come in the package (I ordered extra package with dockingstation, smartTags and screen protector). And yes, I put it over the preinstalled one :good:.
Where did you ordered the extra package?
get a set of these and be done with it!

The back of my phone has a couple of hairline scratches - I presume it's because of the bolts near my jeans' pocket. But the screen is fine so far. :victory:
Do you think that will be available a screen protector like the anti-shatter film that Sony put on the phone? It's scratching very easy and I'm thinking that if something similar will be available then I will remove the one from Sony and put that one. On other Xperia phones is available this kind of screen protector?

I think the chance of that happening is 1%, but I am surprised that companies haven't brought screen protectors with the sony logo/text.
Also a thing Sony could do is to bring out a services to re-apply the anti shatter sheet for us, specially since it scratches so easy.
Anyways, the reason why I don't see it happening is because the anti shatter sheet is being applied by a device, it needs to fit perfectly or it might lose it's function. Screen protectors can be applied by men, because it's only there to protect the device from scratches and such, not to stop the screen from shattering, even though normal screen protectors also do that, but on a smaller scale.
1. There is no screen protector with Sony logo because of patent / copy rights. It would be very expensive to get the right to use the logo.
2. Sony already offers the service to replace the anti shatter film. Costs about 20 bucks

20 bucks is not much but I think is not ok to charge me that money for a piece of anti shatter film that scratches very very easily, I've put an cheap film and I will look for a better one in the future to preserve this anti shatter , but extremely scratching film from Sony. That's a huge minus for them. A gorilla glass would be a perfect solution, too bad that Sony didn't think of that. But I still love the phone
I'd prefer to completely remove the anti shatter film, but something is still holding me back. Maybe it's because I payed some hard earned money for that thing, whatever don't wanna argue about that here.
I did not put any other protection film on my XZ. I think it's odd to have two on you display and to be honest there is nothing compared to real glass. the feeling is way better... still don't wanna argue 'bout that.
so I have no protection on my display and I do not use a case... "this guy is an idiot" ...I will buy one soon; I promise. For now I use a little bag where I used to keep my sunglasses. Btw Krussel has some nice covers. "get to the point dude!" ...I keep my XZ in a sidepocket of my jacket and there is nothing else in that pocket and stil I got a few scratches on my display. It does not bother me at all. You have to look very closely to see them. What I am trying to say is that the anti shatter film scratches very easy and as far as I remeber there is gorilla glas underneath... so close, yet so far. I can live with that... for now. Someday I will take it off anyway. I just love my plain black XZ without any logos. LOL, I used to put a little piece of dark tape on my old s2, just to cover up the logo.
My anti shatter film got really badly scratched
So can someone tell me is there a way to change it? And is Sony logo printed on ASF or directly on the phone

as far as i know, the Anti Shatter Film cannot be changed even in Sony Service Center, and the Sony Logo is printed on the Anti Shatter Film not the display.
So if you're going to remove the Anti Shatter, keep in mind that you'll lose the Sony Logo and the Screen's Warranty (differs from each City)
You may search youtube for how to remove it and what will the device looks like without it

The logo is on the film.
I changed the film and got a tempered screen protector instead from aliexpress.
can anyone post photos of the device's screen after removing the ASF ?
Whih is the best tempered glass gaurd for z1, Nillkin or MTT? Or can we find any thing even better?
Dunno about those brands but I bought a generic one here: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/0-26...tter-Explosion-Proof-for-Sony/2001340818.html
Piece of cake to apply, looks good and doesn't even have a scratch yet.
Tempered Glass

Of course Nillkin .!!
Nilkin here also!
Nilkin as well! I just wish Nilkin had one for the back also, because I bought some Chinese tempered glass for the back and it is (as expected) very low quality.
guys how do you cope with the touch screen when it goes crazy when the phone is warm ? all screen protectors i tried still had this problem
but turning off the screen will fix it
Not glass but try media devil screen protectors , had one on for 4mths now and it looks as good as it did the day I put it on. I will never buy another brand again
