I know some ppl have been waiting for this to come out and I've been searching every morning for an update and saw them there today!
There seems to be an anti-glare version but it's currently unavailable.

The Crystal Clear seems to be the one most people get for their phones. I had these on my Vibrant and you really couldn't notice that you had anything on there at all. On my other phones though it seemed to vary from phone to phone but overall good.
I bought some and will post pictures when I get a chance but I'm sure someone will get them before me lol.
Here's a 10% of realook products promo code that expires 7/31/2011
LQ34QPAQ
The promo code didn't work for me since I've redeemed this code previously. At least I think that's the reason why.
***UPDATED***
I do NOT recommend buying the Realook HTC Sensation screen protector. I was shocked when I opened the package today and saw that it does not cover the entire screen. The cut out is only for the display portion of the screen but what was more shocking was it doesn't even fit the full display portion. It doesn't cover the full screen and it doesn't even cover the portion of the display it was 'designed' for. I've contacted Realook to inquire about this to make sure I got the right one but on my package the code is #650.
I will post back if Realook responds to me but as of now I would not recommend anyone these screen protectors as they fall very short from previous standards.

Thanks man, I had it on my vibrant and was the best screen protector I have ever tried. Now... I'm worried because the dry application screen protectors are harder to sitck to the curved Sensation glass... will wait for some reviews and your pictures
This was most definitely the screen protector to have on the Vibrant. Please post pics when you can and let us know how it handles the curves on the Sensation.
Thanks for the heads up!
Agree. I have Realook on my Vibrant. Been waiting for these, but have 2 different cheaper brands I'm testing now, so will be very interested in whether they solve the curved glass bubble problem.
Thanks.

They both say "unavailable", and "we don't know when or if this item will be back in stock".
Please keep us posted on how the installation goes.
The one issue I have with the Realook on my Vibrant is it's a major fingerprint magnet. The Sensation non-glare version seems to be addressing this, but I wonder how much clarity and smooth finger sliding it sacrifices.
Use a hair dryer on the screen protector before u apply to phone. It worked for me. Saw it on another thread somewhere. Will post link when i find.

Just as I suspected might happen. I cut a spare Vibrant Realook to fit inside the obvious curve part of the Sensation screen and there was still a bubble around the edge all the way around. I knew they would either cut it very small or use a totally different material. Not good news.
Reinforces my view that this curved screen is much more trouble than it's worth.
Thanks for posting.
I asked my friend about the Realook he received for his Nexus S seeing as how the curved glass is more pronounced on the NS and he told me the same thing. I should have inquired about it first from him or Realook.
He spoke with Realook about his NS and they told him it was the right product and that's how they were designed for the curved glass. The one designed for his Nexus S was a joke it was 1 cm short on all sides.
I would steer clear of Realook if your phone has a curved screen.
I just got mine today and what a bad surprise... damn, I'm gonna try to contact Realook and see if I can return it
Those look like the t-mobile ones.... dont cover the whole screen and scratch real easy. does it scratch real easy?

I can't say about this one, I didn't even tried them on but I had Realook on my Samsung Vibrant and those were perfect, really liked them and didn't get scratched easily.
I'm pretty good at screen protector application. I tried the first just to see if it was any better quality than the super cheap, full-screen protection ebay ones I received. Not only did I have a TON of bubbles that I could not remove (perhaps it was heat damaged in shipment??), but it does not cover the screen well at all. GARBAGE.

Yeah this is ridiculous. I have no desire to purchase anything from them again. I had problems with the edges of the ebay ones coming up a little (heated before install) and I just installed the second one of the 5 pack that was half the cost of the realook garbage, and all the edges laid down this time.
Honest question: Are screen protectors really necessary with Gorilla Glass screens? I had a G2 with a scratch on the screen that only happened from a harsh fall and slide, never got scratched from pocket / bag / backpack use; and that wasn't even GG. Of course, I don't put it with keys and whatnot.
Anyone ever scratch a GG screen from normal use? Or what did it take if you did?

Hi all,
We all got the HTC screen protector in the box (which I quite like) but I know many people won't/don't use it. Logn shot but if anyone has a spare that they do not intend to ever use can they mail it to me (UK) and I'll drop a quid in the next charity box I pass???
PM for address....
Thanks - Rich
It is nice. I bought a Something Fields one, and it's nice too, but not accurately cut. Would like a new original one, but I presume they sell them somewhere? Saw an unboxing vid of the raphael and it was at least three protectors included AND leather case. Not fair!

You can buy "official accessories" from numerous places, although the prices are IMHO outrageous!
A quick google
eXpansys are selling them as "HTC Touch Diamond Screen Protector ST P170"
I do not use it because i actually dont like the plastic on the glass allready
I think they say they now use glass, but there is still this cheap plastik pver the glas
HTC should use a Toucpad like apple does

The screen it self is made of glass. The digitizer (what responds to touch) is plastic as it needs to flex.
The iPhone touch screen has its own quirks. You have to use fingers. Nothing else will work.
I use the original HTC screen protector on mine as the digitizer is very easily scratched, should see the little scratches all over the screen protector though and I am very, very careful with my phones, if I didn't have that they would be all over the main display, so if you have any PPC is would seriously recommend that it's used. The HTC screen protector is great though, don't notice it's there, my finger and stylus glide extremely smoothly over the surface, like gliding on ice .
What would be nice if someone combined resistive and capacitive technology to create something that works with the finger, stylus and nails but only has a hard glass surface like capacitive does and not have that annoying plastic digitizer which is easily scratched. Maybe one day though
Used mine for about 2 days and got fed up with bits of fluff sticking around the edges making it look messy. I just keep the phone in a pocket on it's own and no problems so far. Haven't used screen protectors on my other PDAs / Smartphones in the past and never had a problem.
Depends on the individual I think.

It might be, but I'm not perfectly happy with it. The original one is perfectly cut, but the MF one is a tiny bit "smaller", and bad around the speaker. The nice thing with the MF is that they also protect the camera lens and the hard buttons.

No this has been talked about in a few other threads... imo and many others invisibleSHIELD is awful.
Martin fields are the best IMO as they are the clearest ones i have tried and they and are pretty scratch resistant but do indeed have a bit of a rough cut a good compromise are MOMAX protectors... also v good and clean cut.
Got my invisibleshield just and i just LOVE it! havent seen this good protector before.
does anyone know where i could purchase the original screen protector that came with the phone, mine actually covers both the screen and the buttons...
Any idea where I can get the original T-Mobile MDA IV Compact screen protector from? In fact, any 3rd party make for the MDA Compact IV would be useful to know about. Thanks

Same here. Screen protectors make your phone look ugly and cheap. I just put the phone in my pocket without any other objects as well.
I was just showing off the phone to one of the girlies on reception at work. It didnt respond as quickly as I'd hoped when showing her some pics. So, being the impatient so-and-so I am I chucked it into the flower bed we were stood next to. Wish I hadnt done it now as the bloody screen has a scratch on it...
My advice, if you are going to throw your Diamond into the flower bed, then make sure you put the screen protector on first!!! LOL

Haha, LOL! I recently read a report which stated that men are acting less intelligent the moment a woman enters the room. I guess you are a good example of this
Too bad of the screen though. However, when the screen is on you probably won't see the scratch that much, do you?
Just to let you guys know that I got a clear silicone cover and screen protector from some guy on eBay for AU$3.99 + $6.00 postage.

Although not very glamourous, the cover is great - grippy and stops me dropping it, scratching it etc. The button lights show through the clear silicone. The included screen protector is cut exactly right for the Diamond and not noticable. Totally recommend both.
Im going to buy a Desire but i can choose the screen protector reading varius comments in this forum.
Martin Fields?
Invisible Armor?
Vikuiti?
Brando?

The post regarding invisible armor are no good
Just got my Viktui protector this morning. Having used a Zagg shield for my Touch HD (over 18 months I ahd to use two) I can tell you that I am astounbded by how easy the Viktui one was to apply. Really, really straight forward with no bubble or anything. It also fits so snugly onto the screen that I can't tell it's there - a perfect fit. I cant's peak for its protectability yet but so far I'm very impressed.
i have both Zagg and Vikuiti though i have yet to put on the Vikuiti one coz it seems the Zagg one is looking OK at the moment. I'm tempted to remove my Zagg front screen but i'll give it another couple weeks to see how it feels etc, otherwise i'll be installing the Vikuiti front screen.
I try many protection for my old Nokia N900, and for me the best is brando ultraclear.
Best quality/price.
I've used a vikuiti screen protector and whilst it was ok as an interim screen protector, I found that it attracted finger prints quite a bit & after a while it felt powdery to touch. Just my own opinion.
I've now fitted (took a few goes) an exim spuc which feels a lot smoother, less prints & responsive. I'm happy now
I had a brando ultraclear on my Touch Dual before and worked nice.
I prefer a screen protector that leave the color, the resolution and the responsivness unaltered.
I'm so confuse
My advice is not to bother with a screen protector at all.
Having owned a G1, Hero, and now a Desire, I've never had a screen protector on any of them, and never suffered a single scratch.
IMHO, as long as you're reasonably careful, you can rely on the scratch resistant nature of the screen.
Regards,
Dave

This is true - sort of. I had my Dream for nearly 18mths unprotected, and only have one 5mm scratch on the entire screen, However this is a result of me dropping it. I was careful about not keeping it in a pocket with anything else in it that whole time.
On balance this was a hassle, and although I still do it with my (screen-protector covered) Desire through habit, on the occasion I forget to I am glad it's protected. Imagine how gutted you'd be if you ended up with a 1" scratch right on the middle of the screen! Especially since it's a brand new (to most of us) phone. I think a few quid for piece of mind is a small price to pay, no matter how careful you think you can be. What if you show it someone else and THEY drop it?

Lol I was glancing over and thought... not 5mm deep?, lol.
Let me say, without exaggeration, I've tried nearly all screen protectors out there over time for various devices.
If you live in, or travel to, hot & humid places stay away from invisible shield protectors they start their own peeling process shortly after a trip into humidity.
My favorite, by far, are the Durasec - HighTec protectors.
They are a bit thick feeling at first, but you get used to them quickly and you need only one for the life of your device. They are manufactured to exact specs of the screen, per device. They do not scratch, unlike some thin plasticy like ones. They are "self healing" for lack of better description.
Here's the link if you're interested...

Stay away from forever fitters. I bought one and while they are ok for the price the grainy rainbow effect is driving me nuts so i am already looking for an alternative. I'm trying to find one that is clear so it does not effect the screen's quality. So far i'm waiting for a martin fields review and maybe a couple of pics...
I, like many others i`m sure, is looking for a good quality shell for a Omnia 7. Can`t find anything as yet.
If you do see a good shell, please post a link here.
Thank you!!
I bought this one from eBay which has arrived today:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SAMSUNG-I8700..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item43a3706915
It's ok, thought I would recommend getting the black one rather than the smoked one I have. The only issue I have is that the sleep, camera and volume buttons are a bit difficult to press with the case one. I think it may soften or loosen up with a bit of use so I'll keep it on for now and see how it goes.
DC
Yup they soften up
i was the same. But few days now and they are nice and easy to press.
I did give them a bit of a warming up by clicking them a fair few times, but does work to loosen the silicone up.
I got the black one as you can see by this post/pics

I'm struggling with screen protectors though. I ordered some cheapy ones from a German seller but, with the greatest of respect, they're utter dogsh1t. Far too thin, scratched by a piece of card I was using to push bubbles out.
I really want to find a nice anti-glare protector if I can, otherwise I'll be going the Martin Fields route.

Sounds like you got the same ones as me, That's my 4th film heh... I know why they put 6 in there now but for £4........ or a scratched phone ?
Ether way mine is more protected than my other parts of me have ever been
btw i found it's less pressure with the card, and more laying it down and just ever so slowly backing it up and using the card to make sure the bubble you saw don't re-lay where it was.
I'm no expert but 1st go was a joke.... so many bubbles i laughed hard...
2nd better but no dice,
3rd was brilliant apart from a few bits, and my mind just made me take it off and start again
4th was perfect give or take 1 - 3 bubbles i can live with until i try again
You want to hear how my mate managed with an ipad XD
I am having trouble finding screen protectors as well. I think I ordered the same thing as you guys (bedifol ultraclear) from protectionfilms24 but when I went to their site, it seems it's pretty much their lowest range and looking at the reviews for the various cuts they offer for other phones, I am just wondering if it's worth not having a screen protector at all.
Please let me know if you have managed to found one that is good.
Cheers.
Low range - high range.... It was ALL that was out when i got the phone/wanted protection
It does what it says.
It protects the screen XD
0.05mm thick - Same as the "one" for £8 which i bought as with the £3 one to test all of them, Recently bought the martin fields and imo... it tints it for me.... i like the clear/glazed protectors which look like the glass it should be.
So 6 for £4 is win win
I got a screen protector from here http://www.devdef.com/products/for-samsung-omnia-7 (actually I got two), but I found that they're pretty good and by far the easiest to install of any screen protector I've ever used. To apply it, you need to moisten it (instructions are on the site), and then you can slide it over the surface of the phone, before it dries, until you get the perfect positioning. Bubbles are also easy to remove because of this - you just have to do it before it sets. The only drawback, really, is that it's pretty reflective. I don't notice very much in use, but it reflects bright lights quite a lot, so if you're looking for anti-reflective coating, I'd give this a miss. Also on a plus - it's pretty strong as you can see from the video on the site. Also, as the instructions say, it improves the longer it's on your device. Initially it looks a bit poor, but stick with it (no pun intended )

Very nice indeed. And I am using savvy screen protector, little rubbery in touch but not bad at all
Yeah, I used fairy liquid and water, and you only need a tiny amount of fairy liquid - it's concentrated, you know ;-), and you also only need very little of the solution on the screen protector. Also, as I mentioned it looks pants to start off with, and it takes a while to dry, but eventually it looks fine. If you like a shiny screen protector.
I bought both of them on eBay. Very fine !

I am looking for a case which is similar to my incipio feather for iphone 4 and as far as I can see they don't exist and I detest gel cases with a passion so will continue to wait.
Very slippery phone to hold too!
Seen the perfect one but not in stock for weeks (judging by the galaxy s model).

I have ordered the last available (in stock) one on Amazon tonight. Will upload pics when it arrives.

As promised the pics of the CM barely there case.
edit: It also came with a free screen protector & a piece of cleaning cloth which I haven't used yet. Waiting for my current screen protector to be bit more scratched up (martin fields). Shouldn't take long.
That case looks really good just a pity I had to send my Omnia 7 away for repair!
What bothers me with these case is that I won't feel the cold metallic, sturdy cover finish in my hand anymore Is there any possibility to have a bumper instead?
Of course we need one of these threads.
I'm going to go buy a full body BodyGuardz this weekend and i'll report back with pictures, and a review. I've had a lot of bodyguardz for various phones, and they cover the best. They have the orange peel and sticky feel on the screen, but not nearly as bad as i've seen on Zagg. I've never once been satisfied with zagg.
I've tried Stealth Guards on my iphone and desire Z, and the screen protector is a good texture, feels smooth, no resistance. But they don't cover enough of the body.
Never owned BSE
I've had a Skinomi, and they have the same texture as the Stealth guards, but they seem to be very vulnerable to peeling. Also not enough body cover. (might as well buy the stealth guards, they're cheaper)
Anyone got any yet?
I just Installed Skinomi full body. I've had no issues so far and I like the results. I followed the direction to the T, but added the extra step of applying the protectors in a steam up bathroom. Helps minimize dust, and the stream aids in installation).

do you mind posting some pictures?
After work I will post some pictures, I have the product pictures on me right now. Another thing is the product states that once applied to at least allow 12-24? hours to use. I am using it less than that, probably a bad move on my part. So far no problems, we'll see by the end of today.

Skinomi full body.
thanks for the pics! the screen protector looks awesome. the full body could be a bit larger. the back looks funny haha. but i really like that screen protector, i've always liked skinomis compared to other brands.
Thanks. Ya I could do it again but pull'em tighter. But I am very satisfied. I was surprised by how the body peices held up, I figured they would peel off in my pocket, but no problems. The only con's I can think of is there are some thin exposed parts of the phone, imprint of object or finger nail leaves dimples but fade smoothly; slowly. If applied correctly it will last.

I'm going to go get my bodyguardz now. Ill post up pics when I get it on
the bodyguardz kioske in the mall didn't have them in stock yet -_-. gotta order them online.. damnit
i got a invisible shield from best buy because i was impatient and didn't want to wait for shipping. they don't have the full body, so i got the screen protector.
i just finishd putting it on, the texture is different than previous zaggs i've used. also there are a bunch of horizontal lines evenly spaced (they were there before i put it on, not scratches) which you can see at certain angles. and they also have a little zagg logo on the bottom right of the screen protector.. that's new.. and annoying. it's hard to see, but since i know it's there. i don't like it -_-
i'll take some pictures when i can, but overall it's the same resistant non smooth that i dislike about zaggs.

Strange, I just installed a Zagg Invisishield, No pesky logo or anything. It feels pretty good... Maybe its just my greasy fingers
Along with my Pop case!
hmm, there isn't a little black "zagg" stamp on the bottom right in between the search button and the bottom of the screen against the edge?

How about the orange peel effect?

you got the same thing as me then, it seems this is a new design or something. looks terrible.
I called Zagg and they told me that they dont stamp ZAGG on the shields...BS...something is weird...im taking mine back...i hope they take it back at best buy...plus i noticed the picture on the box shows the screen protector going all the way to the top with a hole around the ear piece and camera...the one i got has a big cut out at the top around the camera all the way to the earpiece speaker..
Does a screen protector detract from the looks? Is one needed? Which ones should we use?
I use one, can't tell difference to w/o. As this is one of the cheaper ones (6 pcs for 2 EUR) I think most of the offered ones are fine
Yeah I use one I got a 6 pack off amazon, nothing special just standard screen protector material and you cant even tell that its there. Probably gonna grab a tempered glass one here soon just for the hell of it.

Don't get the tempered glass protector from Amazon. They don't fit the full face of the watch. I have one. They leave like a little over .5mm all the way around. I'll take a pic if you want one.[
It is true that a screen protector detract from look but it's essential until you have gorilla glass.

I got this one from Amazon and last weekend after doing some clean up in my office I noticed a chip out of the tempered glass. I shudder to think what might have happened had I not had it!
http://www.amazon.com/Protector-Sup...848892&sr=8-3&keywords=gear+s2+tempered+glass
I looked at this one and it has pretty good reviews,,,other than the chip has it worked out? Does it fit good and no bubbles?

Yes, it is fantastic protection and relatively easy to just "plop" on.
Is there any real reason why on earth you need screen protector on watch?
Especially when there`s gorilla glass instead of usual.
It`s a wearable device that is mounted on wrist all day long, so there`s no risk of drop at all.

You can still bump your watch against a door or wall which could scratch the watch face. Happened to me with a few watches in the past. Screen protectors are more for scratches than drops anyhow . In the end it's a matter of taste vs peace of mind. No wrong answer here. Personally I always lean towards using one and all my devices still look new after tons of use.
Screen protector
I tried one on but took it off in five min. It was protruding above the frame and didn't feel natural.
It was also gathering dust around the edge quickly and took away from the aesthetics of the watch.
I'll just be careful in handling the watch and enjoy the beauty of the watch at all times, rather.
The regular old school ones I got off amazon work great and you cant even tell it's on thenwatch.
As far if you need one or not, that's just a matter of opinion, ive banged my Smartwatches (Gear 1, Gear S) off door knobs walking down my hall a few times or at work while rushing around, it makes your stomach turn lol, yes the glass is definitely resilient but it never hurts to add a safety layer as long as it keep the watches aesthetics, Lucky I haven't banged my S2 off anything and hope I never do, but at least my screen will be covered if I do lol
have anyone tried the full body skin protector ? im just curious, is it truly invisible or would it be annoying ?

I have this on my watch. I'm very happy with it.
I bought a tempered glass one from eBay, it fitted very well. But it did create the thinnest halo effect around the the edge. So I took it off.
Then thought, I don't put any protectors on any of my other watches and most are regular glass.
I got this tempered glass screen protector on aliexpress. Very happy with it - fits really well and is barely noticeable. I think I read somewhere that it would be slightly too small for the classic though.
I have supershieldz from amazon for last few weeks and I happy with it.
I bought this from amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015X2DG2I?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
Install was easy and I dont even know it is there. No loss in touch or responsiveness.
Got two tempered glass screen protectors off Amazon for about $10 each (Canadian). First one was tricky and had slight halo but that was my own fault. Took it off and tried again with my second one...perfect. No halo, can't even really tell it's on
