I've just bought a G2 and I'm looking to get some protection for it. Would you guys recommend Zagg or Phantom Skinz? I read about Zagg's screen protectors being too big, is this an issue still?
Thanks
http://www.bestskinsever.com/t-mobile-htc-g2-skin get the full body protector, perfect fit no cutting.
i JUST received my Zagg screen protector (ordered the easy install full body kit), and it fits perrfect! I love it... I'm waiting for my PhantomSkinz Carbon Fiber (black) body protection to come for the rest of the phone.
i received a BSE full body skin a couple days ago. around 8bucks including shipping. fitting is near perfect. its definitely worth a try. Ive used BSE for my nexus1, ipod video, ds lite, and many more.
I got the matte finish PhantomSkinz. I ordered online, so it came with 2 sets of the full body cover, 2 matte screen protectors, and 2 clear screen protectors.
I really like how the matte skin looks and feels on the phone. I used the clear screen protectors, and I think they are a little easier to install than the Zagg ones I have on my iPod.

Did you have trouble getting it to stick to the G2's soft plastic? Mine's peeling around the corners.
The matte finish does look and feel really nice. Props to Phantomskinz for that.

One of the corners actually started to peel a little today. It was one that I messed with a bit after the initial install, so i think that has something to do with it. I was planning on reapplying it anyway (which is why I messed with it before).
Just got and put on my ZAGG shield today. Got the max protection kit, and it fits wonderfully. None of the pieces were cut to the wrong size. I'm very pleased with it.

Did the exact same thing last night. Decided to not put it on the soft touch parts of the phone, cuz i like their feel. But it does make a really good protection on screen and chrome accent parts. To be honest, the screen protection is great and makes cleaning and swype better to use.
Anyone purchasing screen protector for their DVP?
I tried to search on eBay and found only 2 sellers have it,
any recommendation site that sell DVP's screen protector?
Dvp have a curved screen. Most screen protector are like paper that does not bend and stick to curved surfaces. Nine agree? It's going to be hard finding an SP for Dvp..

I don't think this is a problem, I had put a G2 screen protector on my VP and it wasn't bad. Obviously it didn't cover the entire glass but it covered the screen pretty nicely and it stayed put! (no raised edges or anything)

Well, although DVP comes with gorilla class (anti-scratch), but its has been my habit to apply a SC for every phone i use

A screen protector comes with the otterbox case
I'm personally not worried about scratches on the Gorilla Glass, but I can say from experience with the SGP Steinheil screen protector for my Xperia X1 that it offers two huge benefits:
(a) oleophobic coating to limit fingerprints
(b) anti-reflective coating for additional outdoor visibility
Steinheil makes protectors for the Motorola Droid X (which has a 4.3" screen and is physically longer and wider than the Venue Pro http://www.sgpstore.com/cell-phone/...roid-x-screen-protector-steinheil-series.html
I'm thinking of ordering one of the Anti-Fingerprint ones and trimming it to fit.
Nope... Its flat

I ordered this one off Amazon...well I cant post the link because I dont have enough posts but, search on Amazon, theres a few on there.
I really want a full body case but the only one thats available seems really bulky.
Hi,
I just receivedan skin from a company based out here in California. They're called Skinomi. They have 5 different styles of full body skins (clear, silver, black, light wood and dark wood). The skins are akin to those made by Zagg, Invisible Shield, etc. Skinomi backs each skin with free lifetime (!) replacements. For $20, I don't think it can be beat. Moreover, with an online coupon (get25) you can take an additional 25% off!
My sister had a Skinomi skin for her iphone and said it was the best investment she could have made for her phone (3 years, no peeling, yellowing).
Take a look: skinomi dot com
I bought one of the skinomi skins. They are the only one I found as the other traditional makers (zagg, bodyguardz, bestskinsever, etc) did not offer a full set of skins cut for the DVP. Materials-wise, its the same as all of the other manufacturers. Fit is good, and much happier now that I finally have some protection for my device. Not a fan of the bulky carrying cases, and I've had skins on my last couple of phones, so I'd recommend these.
I installed the full skin by Skinomi yesterday. I've used Zagg and BestSkinsEver on various devices, and I would say this is on par with Zagg's Invisible Shield in term of thickness. I prefer BestSkinsEver because the films are thinner and a bit grippier.
Hey Guys, This is for anyone who is still looking for a Screen Protector for DVP. I've been a fan of Boxwave's ClearTouch Anti-Glare Screen protector for years, I'm so glad they release one for DVP. Some of the Great Features I like are Dust Repelling & Fingerprint Free. I highly recommend This Screen Protector.

Please let us know what you think because mine didn't work too well. I removed the Skinomi screen after a week. The Home capacitive button wasn't too responsive. It works less than half the time.

still waiting for it. Taking too long to deliver to my country. The expected delivery time has begun so it should reach me any day now. I have heard about capacitive buttons not working with skinomi.i think you should give them a feedback on it. I an sure they'll send u a replacement and lets hope, find a way around this problem as well.

got my skin a couple of days back. installed it with little hiccups (suggestion: go easy on spraying the liquid on the sticky side of the skin)
kept it for over 24hrs to dry. n now love the grip i get on the dvp.
the feeling of holding the dvp in hand has grown richer..
also i am not having any issues related to non-response of the touch buttons on the face of the DVP
another suggestion: after putting the skin on the screen of the dvp i used a hair dryer to warm the edges to make them bend n stick the sides firmly...
it's thumb's up from my side.. i am happy with the skinomi...

Just wanted to say thanks for coming back with the follow up!
I ordered a Ghost Armor kit over the weekend (should be here by the end of the week) so I'll come back with my thoughts on it. If it turns out to be garbage I'll look into getting the Skinomi kit per your recommendation varunverma.
I just ordered the boxwave screen protector myself, I've used them before and they are by far the best! I hated Zagg. Boxwave is the hard plastic type that uses no adhesive, they are perfectly clear and super easy to install, Can't wait till mine arrive this week, I'll take some pics and post them.
My full body kit arrived from Ghost Armor the other day. Strangely enough full budy doesn't include a cover for the back. I've left a message with Ghost Armor asking if this is intentional but still haven't heard back.
I've watched a couple of Ghost Armor installation videos and am super paranoid about the amount of water they use in applying the skin to the DVP. I see people recommending the Boxwave/MartinsField dry installation protectors and may go that way depending on how long it takes Ghost Armor to reply to my inquiry.
Has anyone found a skinny rubber bumper to put on their phone yet? I wish the sides/back of the phone were rubberized like the top/bottom.
Derp - There is no protective film for the back because of the textured pattern. Hopefully the back doesn't scratch easily.
Moar edits! - I was mostly concerned about protecting my screen as my first DVP had 2-3 scratches on it (is Dell using a Gorilla Glass knockoff?) despite being babied and always riding in its own private pocket. This led me to purchase a full body Ghost Armor kit. I've had my Ghost Armor on for a couple of days now and love it compared to the InvisShield that I had on a previous iDevice. It isn't spongy/tacky; scrolling doesn't seem to be impaired by the skin at all. Looking at the device head on you can't tell that there is a skin on it though if you tilt it in the light it exhibits an ever so slight "orange peel" type effect; it's nowhere near as bad as the InvisShield. The Ghost Armor skin is also fairly grease/oil resistant. I don't have to wipe my device down nearly as much as I did without the skin on it. It also adds some nice grip to the device.
I do, however, have a few complaints about the Ghost Armor kit for the DVP -
a) No skin for back cover. I realize the textured back makes it hard to get something to stick on it, but I would have at least preferred a warning saying that "DVP FULL BODY KIT" is not actually a full body kit; only front screen and sides. Would have saved myself $10 that way.
b) The skin for the front screen does not overlap and cover the two tiny chrome strips to either side; instead, two tiny pieces of protective skin are included for them. I would have preferred one big piece to cover the screen and those chrome strips as the little strips were an absolute pain in the ass to install. I actually stretched one of them out a little bit during installation and that corner is covered in lint/dust.
c) The edges of this skin are not only "sharp" (I don't think you'll be cutting yourself on them, but you can definitely feel it as you use your DVP) but are absolute lint/dust magnets. Every time I pull my phone out of my pocket I start picking away at the little pieces of lint/dust around the edges of the skin.
So far I'm very pleased with my purchase.
Well, i am getting a nexus 4 soon and confused as to which screen protector to use.
both skinomi and xtremegaurd seem to have good reviews in this forum.
Any clear cut winner between the two or any third one which should be considered since i just look at this forum and nowhere else?
XtremeGuard is really iffy. I got a bad batch from them, it came to $6 for 3 full body sets. All of the fronts were garbage, so I told them. They sent me 3 more new ones. I'm yet to receive them, but we'll see what happens...
Skinomi may have changed since I got one for my Galaxy S2, but these were like Zaggs, only of worse quality. Dust would get trapped on the surface of the skin, and it would take a lot of effort to get them out, such that I made scratches that wouldn't go away. I tried buffing it with a glass cleaner and ended up burning the surface of the protector such that it fogged it up beyond any recovery.
I hear good things about XOskins and BestSkinsEver, but I can't verify anything about those.
Get the ZAGG.

I have both the BSE and the xtremeguard for the N4. Orange peel is about the same for both(next to nothing). The BSE is the cleaner cut of the two although mine doesn't have a proximity cut out they have since changed that afaik. Out of the gate the BSE is definitely the less tacky. About the same for reflectiveness and dimensions. Xtremeguard is cheaper by quite a bit and comes with a very small microfiber.
*edit* if it matters to you BSE comes with side protectors while xtreme does not.

I agree that you should get Zagg - if you want to overpay and get a noticeable orange peel surface. If you want less orange peel (but still present) and less than half the cost, get Best Skin Ever.
I had a Zagg on a blackberry that got driven- over with my car - which completely destroyed the device. When I peeled-off the Zagg, the screen was in factory new condition. I was impressed with the protection it offered, but the orange peel and tackiness of the surface really detected from interfacing with a glass surface.
Everyone has an opinion about screen protectors, and now you know mine.

wah wah wah, no one asked for yours.
XtremeGuard sent me three faulty ones (no cut out for proximity sensor), so they sent a replacement, but only one set... i paid for three sets. plus the one they sent me turned out to be partially stuck to the envelope rendering it unusable. Still waiting for them to send me my 3 sets.
Very bad customer service, true they replay right away but so far all their replies are automated, they don't actually read what we write.
I used to have a Zagg on my GNex, but I got tired of the Orange peel effect. Swipes were pretty rough for the first few weeks as well. I ordered a total body skin from BSE and I am very impressed with it. Minimal orange peel and smooth swipes. However, I can see a few tiny dimples that have appeared and light marks where my fingernails went across the screen. But they can only be seen with the screen off and holding the screen at an angle in the light.

It all depends what you like. i aboslutelly hate the rubbery feel protectors. I still like to feel like glass. If you want rubbery get zaggs if you prefer more like the current glass I'd recommend the Rearth Ringbo or SGP. I use the Rearth and its great and very very very easy to install.

I got an ExtremeGuard front and back and while application for me was hard (I suck at putting these on) it has a great feel. Very smooth and not tacky.
I like the xgear fantom 4. I have one preordered it should ship in a few days. Made of glass so it shouldn't have the plastic feel.

Love the BestSkinsEver for the Nexus 4. Wet install but incredibly smooth with almost no orange peel.
Of course the installation is everything. You can have the world's best/worst screen protector depending on how you install it.

I bought Skinomi skin...and failed too bad on the front.
For some reason, the BLACK Skinomi towel spread black particles and some of there are now between my screen and the protector
Also...is superfluous me some up and some down. Is taller than N4....
Now i bought 3 extremeguard from eBay...but i think it will be the same ****...(i hope no).
I want the "Basic and Rigid" 100% Clear, cheap cover....that i had on my S3...."Screen Guard" was called.
1 or 2 "mm" smaller than the S3 just to have a little more chance to install it without excess.
Really appreciate the responses everyone. I will try one of those out for sure

I have xtremeguard in the front and back. The cut outs are good, but the covers are two to three millimeters too short along the width of the phone. The covers are wet application type which means that they have a bit of a rubber feel. The one thing that I don't like about this cover is that they eventually peel along the edges.

It depends on what you are looking for. Screen protectors (good ones) will take the impact of an object and keep it from damaging the glass. I have been a fan of xo skins for a while because they self heal and are one of the few that resist sand. If you go with a glass type or acrylic, they do feel smoother, but you will begin to see scratches and scuffs that don't go away. The wet install ones also fill in existing scratches. The xo ones have the closest to glass feel, but are still the aircraft skin type without orange peel. Just depends on what features are most important to you.

agreed, I bought the xtrmeguard as well and the size was spot-on, but the screen cover feels too rubber-ish (almost broke my fingers couple times trying to slide ), so I decided to change to regular screen protector; besides, I'm already used to leave my phone away from any sharp objects.

The 'dual' part just means front and back.
I've been using an SGP on my N4 from day one (~Dec20) and it's been perfect, comparing to the one that comes with the phone is laughable. The SGP looks and feels just like the bare glass to me. It does attract face oil and fingerprints, but that beats scratches, and it's nothing a quick wipe won't solve.

Had my GS2 without one for 2yrs and nothing happen to its screen now this phone since Nov 20th and got these scratches that you can't really see unless you look carefully after wiping the screen :/ but thank you for your input. Will be buying one of these..
Anyone try this kind.. Says its HD wonder how the feel is..

I used SGP on my Galaxy S2. It works pretty nice, feels great. My only complaints were it attracts fingerprints like crazy, and a year later my screen protector has some minor scratches on it (not really visible when the screen is on). It happens since the hardness is only 4H and stuff like sand is a lot tougher than that. But I'm just glad its only the screen protector and my actual screen.
I had the Rearth Ringbo Screen protector on my Nexus 7. They fit really nice and look great. Feels fine, though the only OCD issue I have with it is when the screen is off, the screen protector displays almost like an orange peel effect (probably anti-UV coating or something). It does a better job of reducing fingerprints but its no where as bad as the SGP ones.
If I had to pick to get one for my Nexus 4... I'm leaning towards SGP again.
Phantomskinz is awesome! Almost feels like glass its so smooth, insanely clear, and works more than perfect with the Spen. I cant tell you how happy with the way this came out from the presentation on the skin, easy directions all the way to an easy perfect install. Can hardly even tell a skin is on this and it self heals!! I have used these on many of my phones all the way back to my Pre days and no others really compare. So happy with this and highly recommend!
Can you take any closer pics? I'm curious to the orange peel on it.
Phantom skins seem good value but shipping to UK makes it expensive.
Absolutely no orange peel at all and my pics are pretty close. Love how this feels and looks. It's as if its not even there.
I would say I used a good amount of liquid. I actually dont think you can use too much. You want it to be able to move on the screen until it fits just perfect.

So it is indeed wet apply? I may have to look into get one. Doesn't this also come with a choice of back protector as well?
You have your choice if you want to get a back. they have a clear HD one that's similar material to the front or you can get a matte black film similar to dbrand. I think you will really like these. They feel like no others
Looks just like the Spigen Neo flex screen protector. You can tell by the reflection in the second picture. Probably the same protectors but different cutouts to differentiate themselves.

Definitely not the same. I've had both. The Phantomskinz really does feel like there is nothing there. It's a finger print magnet like glass and the one I have isn't case friendly at all. I think there is now an option for a case friendly version. There is no drag at all like PET protectors with the S-Pen, either. It's really great and I would be even happier if the corners weren't pushing up thanks to my case. Huge bonus in my eyes is that this has cutouts at the top and extends to the top of the screen. It's a great protector, but not cheap.
I tried the Spigen neo flex for the note 9. Too much orange peel, although the coverage was good with a small gap for cases. Wife had bought it for her note 9 ( still on order ) so I used one of her two pack.
I'm currently using a glass type protector. And a pet film for the back that makes the it look like a note 3 or note 4 back battery cover lol
Sent from my SM-N960U1 using Tapatalk
The orange peel isn't that bad and gets better. The neo flex is self healing to. I cured mine a little bit faster by leaving in sunlight for about 15 minutes on each long side. Probably the best regular screen protector compared to glass. I'd love to get a glass but hey always end up cracking on me even when I put the glass side against my leg in my pocket. Much cheaper than the good glass too. Chances are we won't get the great regular screen protection because of the curves. An aggressive glue would have to be used and I doubt most people want to deal with that.

The orange peel isn't that bad and gets better. The neo flex is self healing to. I cured mine a little bit faster by leaving in sunlight for about 15 minutes on each long side. Probably the best regular screen protector compared to glass. I'd love to get a glass but hey always end up cracking on me even when I put the glass side against my leg in my pocket. Much cheaper than the good glass too. Chances are we won't get the great regular screen protection because of the curves.

I lost faith in glass screen protectors even before owning a note 8. But the one I got out of urgency, since I wanted some scratch protection before buying a regular wet applied one seems to be ok.

I tried the Spigen neo flex as I have tried so many and it is definitely not the same as Phantomskinz. Orange peel on spigen. If you want to be happy you should try the Phantomskin. I refuse to spend 40- 60 on a whitestone
Update: This thing is the best screen protector you can buy. Has held up perfectly since day 1 and the spen feels amazing with it! It really feels like glass.
is it this one? https://phantomskinz.com/samsung-galaxy-note-9/
That's it! Just make sure you get the right one. Case friendly or edge to edge. You will love it
On the product page it shows it's 14.95 but upon checkout it becomes 29.95....
Update: Installed about a month ago and still flawless. The smooth glass feel is awesome

Make sure you select none under the body protection.
Just ordered mine and see if it's that good.

I would like to try it but the shipping cost to Greece is exactly like the glasses cost. [emoji26]
