[Q] Rocketfish Screen Protectors? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone tried the RocketFish screen protectors available from carphonewarehouse on their nexus s?
The other one they offer is the INVISIBLESheild which I've heard produces an orange peel effect on the screen (and are about twice the price). The only other ones I found were from AMZER and H&V both of which had mixed reviews.
Opinions?
Thanks

Heck, I would buy the product just based on its name. It's RocketFish damnit!

Does any one know where else to buy it from? Carphone Warehouse doesn't seem to ship internationally.
What about Martin Fields screen protectors (www . overlayplus.com/NZ/MFOP-GoogleNexusS)? Are they good? It's not out at the moment though.

You do realise that the RocketFish brand is an in-house BestBuy brand, similar to Insignia.

I thought they just have an exclusive deal like tech 21

Come on, someone in the UK must have bought them by now. Are they any good?

You could try Ebay, I bought 3 different pouches/cases for a total of €12,- including shipment to Europe (Netherlands). Dont know which one is the best, or even if there is 'a best' but for €12.. why not
Someone perhaps spotted a flip case for the DHD? I'm really looking forward for it..

Can you post some pics/review after you recieve them?
I guess it's only me that thinks that case on play.com is truly hideous then?
Personal Opinion: NEVER buy anything from play.com. When something goes wrong or you dont get the good, there is nothing you can do about it. They are based in Jersey and some UK law does not apply to them, no OFT or Trading Standards can help you with play.com related problems. They will take your money and give you the finger. I spent £100 on a Battlestar Galactica BluRay box set and it never turned up. I had five years of happy dealing with play.com, over £2k spent, and they just screwed me.
This is my personal opinion based on whats happened to me. You can find many stories like this on Google.
Yeah I would preorder from play.com. go look in the release date thread about peoples dhd orders.
Also, silicone cases are vile. They lol awful and dust sticks to them. Why don't you just get the official HTC case and screen protectors?
Got both if them from handtec for about £10

sleeves like nexus one?

anyone know if there is a sleeve that fits this phone a little better than the one from my nexus?
I ordered one from amazon... I can't remember but it was made from kangaroo...wish I could be more helpful. Oh it was about 10.99 total.

I order my sleeves hand-made on Etsy. Just search for 'iphone sleeves' and when u find one you like, email the seller and ask if they would make one for your phone dimensions. Personally, I like the work of YanaK and I recommend you search for her on Etsy, her sleeves are really nice and she is quick to make your sleeve for you.

Yup.. just ordered one of those the other day. It's coming from Hong Kong but free shipping so not bad. Seller has a high rating so we'll see how this works out.
Hope yah know it doesnt fit inside the Nexus One pouch I just checked
I've been using the pouch from my G1. The G2x doesn't go but just to the edge of the pouch, which works for me.

Figured for $3, why not give it a shot? Thanks to the OP.
Back when I had my Nexus One, I loved the little pouch with the Android tilted on it just like these cases. That said, I already have 2 nicer looking TPU cases, and I really don't want anything etched onto the back of my case. Hope everyone else who wants one finds out though, excellent deal.

Rabble rabble rabble.
Can somebody please post pics of the HOX inside this case so we can get an idea for the fit & proctection
Just ordered a white, black and clear trio myself . $11.88 for 3 cases = cheap!
Just so everyone knows...it is 2 dollars cheaper to buy 3 rather than 2!!!
WTH, for four bucks, I'll give it a shot.

Any N4 USA-seller cases available yet?

Just as the title says... I've seen a few on eBay & amazon but they're in China & I don't wanna wait 2 weeks for shipping :banghead:

Just wait, the bumper is too expensive, you'll be able to pick one very similar for very cheap soon.
I ordered this yesterday, before the price went up.

Thanks - Just ordered a grey case and three clear screen protectors for my new Nexus 4! Didn't want to wait two to three weeks for ones to show up from China, even if they were cheaper. I figure $11 is worth it to protect this phone.

Tempered Glass Screen Protectors

I know this phone hasn't even been released yet so this thread is a little premature BUT hear me out.
Last year from what I can see from the Moto X 2014 threads was that there was not a single tempered glass screen protector that actually worked thanks to a slight curve at the edge of the glass. Which makes me think it could possibly be the case this year also.
I know one tempered glass screen protector is actually now available to pre-order on Amazon ... although it does have a in stock date of Dec 2015.

All the marketing hype and tech specs for GG3 are here. Of course they proclaim it's a night and day difference. But they've released GG4, so 3 can't be their best work .

It will make it expensive, they will pop up eventually here, tbh not sure if the Style will even release on 3rd Sept here in the UK so maybe thats why theres nothing here yet but if nothing pops up then I know who to ask [emoji106] .

Just checked Amazon uk - looks like a few tempered glass screen protectors are up. They're all quite cheap so will be interesting to get a few and see how they hold.
