hi everbody...
ive done a search about this item and im getting mixed reviews.
i mainly want to know how good the screen protector is?
i also want to fit the battery cover, but i also want a cheap case ontop of that.
thanks
I've used the invisible shield before on my ipod. It is so nice to have the piece of mind that your device won't get scrstched. I will be ordering one shortly for my new desire.

I've used one for about 2 months. After this period it just turned yellow from dirt I guess. Now, I use a 3M screen protector and is much clear, a better contrast, and so one. I recomend the 3M one
Hmmmz... i cant decide still lol
Its £15 and has a lifetime waRrenty.
Having ZAGG already for something like 3-4 months and I also carry it in a case. No yellowish feeling, perfect protection, no scratches, using front and back cover only (no cover around buttons and joystick as it looks a bit awful)
Recommend it. Can get replacement when scratched just for shipping price (need to send the old one back). So I can only recommend.
sounds good, i think i will get one.
when i purchased a my ipod nano 3rd gen i orderd a case straight away and it came with a clear film for the screen and the back so i fitted it all and its doing its job nicely.
so im thinking of doing the same for my phone.
can you also get a piccy of your phone now it has the invisable shield fitted please.
Be sure, it's not that easy to apply. It's thick and very hard to apply perfectly i think.
i want it but im having doubts as im reading soooooo many mixed reviews online.
my main concern is the screen protector. i want a good one, i wasnt happy with the martin fields i had on my last mobile phone, and my brother doesnt seem to happy with the MF on his ipoone 4 either
and the back shield will just be there under the case to stop scratches
Yeah it really protects but, on the screen it's too thick and doesnt feel good.
And the back side after a month it peeling off in the corners , storing to much dust and dirt.
Now I'm waiting for otter box commuter case , ı ll peel all the zagg shields. But i dont know about screen may be i can use the protector coming with otter.
Well its here now... im just waiting for my gel case that would be going over the zagg once its fitted.
Oh and im not worried about bulk, my last phone was a touch pro 2 LOL
I found it hard to apply and made a pig's ear of it, hence I made a mess, hated it and it was my fault so I couldn't send it back or complain.
I still use the other bits to protect the case, it was just the screen one which was awful after I'd finished.
Hopefully you live in a cpu factory and aren't covered in fluff and dust like me
Went to fit it last friday and its not evan been cut properly. So i rang play.com today and im sending it back for a refund.
Just found out they started to sell them. Anyone used theirs before? Hows the feel on them?

Only thing you guys might not like the "orange peel" look. I've never had a screen protector with orange peel so I'd like your input. And I don't want a screen protector from T-Mobile. Those are horrible and give the matte grainy effect.
Ha. I found Best Skins Ever is coming out with it. This is the one I had on my Samsung Vibrant and it was really nice.

I sent them a message to see when they are shipping it out.

+1 for best skins ever. Had it on my nexus one for a little over a year and worked great!
However, best skins ever isn't selling them yet for the G2X. Being that I couldn't wait, I went ahead and bought the ultra clear protectors from clarivue
I was going to buy one from them but there's a back order.
Yup zagg + otterbox = total package
Sn: I love the texture of the zagg protector

Is there a page listing the otterbox for g2x out?
Not yet but it definitely won't be long
Sent from my G2X using Tapatalk
I called Otterbox and unfortunatly he said they do not have plans to make case for G2x as LG never sent them sample empty case. He said LG is SLOWWWWWWWW with supplying them with there phones. He said that dependent on them getting sample then its a couple more weeks till ready for production. So dont hold our breath. UGGG
trust me this is a dual core phone an otterbox case will be made for it, it was just released so it might be may or june before we get it
Love the Zagg Invisible Shield. Will be ordering it for mine in the next few days. I've tried some of the other less flexible and 'cheaper' protectors but could never get them to install perfectly. Always had a bubble or some dust or something no matter what. The Zagg is great because you thoroughly wet the surface and the film allowing you to move it, remove it and reinstall (until it dries of course), etc.
About to order this from them...
http://www.bodyguardz.com/t-mobile-g2x-cases-screen-protectors-covers-shields-skins-films.html
Use coupon "PROTECT" to get 10%. What searching thru Google does. ;D
I'm using the Zagg now. It's great.
Although If you happen to get the bodyglove case for the phone it does cause the screen to push and bubble up at 4 of the snap in places on the case. As long as you don't need to take the case constantly on/off you'll be ok.
-1 for Zagg. Protects well but always needs to be wiped and is not at all smooth. Took mine off after a month.

I'm personally using the protector that came on the phone until I hear from more people that have had Gorilla Glass in real life scenarios for a long time. If it is as good as I have seen on YouTube, I might just go naked.
Had gorilla glass on my vibrant and never got a scratch. Then again, I didn't have gorilla glass on my nexus s and I didn't get any scratches. I learned how not to take care of a phone with my g1. Damn thing was in pieces eventually.

I found one way better !!!
I was always a big fan of invisible shield... Until I came upon xtreme guard and these are way better than all of them... They usually have them in stock as soon as phone is out... I ordered friday and received today... I'm bout to install it but they always look good and best of all there only $5 with shipping
Ghost armor full body protector... No case... A++ ! Had it on my hd2 and mt4g.

Before putting on a skin, I scratched my N1 even though many were claiming that as durable. I wish there was a real side by side comparison of that against the Gorilla Glass.

I had a Droid (with Gorilla Glass) from November 2009 until I got my G2x. I never use cases and am clumsy and careless. By the time I got rid of the Droid the whole phone looked like absolute crap. Except the glass, which was without a scratch. Anecdote != evidence, but take it for what it's worth.

Hi Guys. I just want to share my experience with ZAGG. I just got it and I installed it myself it was really difficult specially this my first ZAGG. And this some pic for any one want to get ZAGG.
Thankyou for sharing your pics, it looks great.

I'm quite impressed with the screen protector part of the package (which I also purchased). Would you happen to have any tips for applying it as flawlessly as you did?
I won't be getting Zagg again. I went through a several of them on my Vibrant but I could never get one that didn't have vertical lines that turned into rainbows when the screen was on. Also, I couldn't get use to the 'rubber' feel of the screen and just took it off.
Once I got the "Realook" I never looked back. I hope they come out with a screen protector for the Sensation.
Looks pretty nice, good job on the install!
So zagg went with 3 pieces of film on the back, I wonder how that is going to hold up in regards to the film peeling after a few months of use.
I got the full body film from Phantom Skinz and they did a 1 piece film for the back cover. I think it might the install a bit harder, though.
If you want to compare and contrast, I put up some pics here:

Awsome Shiled ..any idea how much is it ?
The hardest part I couldn't do it and I throw it away the piece in top for the camera It was very tiny and it gave me a big headache. But I am happy with that. I got the maximum. It's almost 7 pieces.

It's 22$ including the shipping. By Pound it will be almost 150 Pounds I think
I ordered a max cover as well. Just waiting for it to get to me.

Max protection is $24.99 but you can always get a discount. I only paid $22, shipping included.
I'll never buy or recommend this product. Too grippy and has the orange peel effect. I had the full coverage on my wildfire and it felt really cheap!
I'm really considering buying the ZAGG shield to but as already been said I'm afraid the back will peel since it's 3 seperate parts.
But I'm really happy with the ZAGG shield on my iPad!
Anybody already had the feeling the back isn't gonna stay on for long?
And how are the soft keys responding with a screen protector over it?
Sent from my HTC Sensation~
100 % nice work ..excellent
I am sure there is nothing wrong with the Zagg skin, but i had one whole body skin from Zagg on my HTC Desire, and after a while it starts to sweat out glue, and that made me not wanting it.. The screen protector works fine too, although in the beginning it is very 'rubbery', but as you use it it gets better to handle. Best feeling is always just glass!
Get bestskinsever its a lot cheaper and the same thing.

lucky one..
here in my country...its is not yet available for sensation..though i have it for my Desire HD....
Does it effect touch sensitivity? I've ordered my zagg, coming in few days but I'm not sure if it does have side effects
Thanks for your post,
Just order zagg film for my sensation!
I will report my experience too!
I used a Zagg shield for my Touch Pro 2. I love the shield but after a few months it does start peeling. I contacted Zagg and got a free replacement but I reckon the Sensation shield will start to peel, on the back pieces and the sides.
I think I'll get a TPU case and put a screen protector on.
Thanks for the pics though - I hope you have a better experience with your shield. You did a great application!
Ok i received my phone a couple of days ago from and ebay user. The phone was suppose to be brand new. But to my surprise right out if the box it had a pretty big scratch. I think that little piece of plastic that sticks out of the back and goes under the battery is what scratched it. Because the film thats suppose to be protecting the screen was not applied, so that plastic piece was rubbing up against the bare screen during shipment.
So anyways i paid $450 for the phone, and he gave me $25 back since it had a scratch. but this scratch is really bothering me. Is there any way i could get htc to replace it?
Doubt it very much, you can ask them but that's about it
$25 off for a scratched screen? Are you kidding? Got a 60" plasma with a cracked screen for sale for $2000, willing to go $1925 just for you
G
why can not you send it back to ebay, I bought a xperia x10 a while ago from ebay and the buttons were not functioning, I sent it back for a full refund.
If the seller does not agree then I would suggest you to get EBAY involved
or you can just buy one of this

eBay buyer protection. Contact PayPal they work faster than ebay. Refund back the $25 and open a case and get all ur money back. I wouldn't keep it. If I got a scratch on my screen I wouldnt want the phone anymore

If this is Gorilla glass......
I put a couple of awful scratches in mine right away. Near about made me cry!
But I went to the mall and had a Ghost Armor screen protector installed on it....did a great job of hiding those scratches. Try it.
Shoulda' put it on when I bought it. 20/20 hindsight, ain't it grand?

It's just a screen protector LOL but it's doing the job. 'I had the silver carbon fiber put on the back as well. It's three pieces of sticker that cover the three pieces of the back. I was hoping it would make it less slippery. Didn't really help. Looks great though.

Yeah, I was kinda second guessing the glossy back cover after the fact, but it's too late now...
Phantom Skinz has matte, as well and someone else in the thread I started put up some pics of their install with it.
I hope you have better luck with GA then I did!
who uses a screen protector and what is the best one?
Ive had this one on my phone since early December and no complaints or problems. Highly recommend it. http://cgi.ebay.com/3x-LCD-Screen-P...Accessories&hash=item27bcad8c90#ht_500wt_1139
I usually go to RadioShack. They have cut to fit ones, but don't use the "Wright Right" ones, as they suck, MAJORLY. They scratch way too easily, and have removable film on only one side. I prefer the kind that has removables on both sides. Basically, I peel off the back, then apply, and there is another film sheet on the top that I can keep on while I use a credit card to pour on the pressure to apply, then remove that upper layer film and have a pristine, beautifully applied screen protector. Oh yeah...
You don't really have to have one.. this screen is unscratchable. I never have used one and there is not a single mark. I personally like to take a pair of scissors to it as hard as I can to show off to friends. But do as you please. Lol

Unscratchable my a$$. I had to take my screen protector off for 3 days and it definitely got scratched.
If you keep it in a pocket, sand (quartz) can scratch it.
i had one for my moment and the problem i had with that was that when i would drag my fingers across the screen it would slide smoothly, it was jumpy that was a zagg screen protector just wondering if there was something better or if they are all created equally
I have an extremeguard.com shield on mine, not terribly happy with it, I've had zagg shields and bse shields and they where pretty similar. So I would probably recommend one of those over the extreme guard.

Zagg invisible shield. Hands down.
Its like $20 and if you get it at a mall kiosk they'll apply it for you. It also has an unlimited lifetime warranty. So if the protector gets scratched, if it peels up/comes off you can take it back and they will give you another protector and only charge couple dollars to apply the new one.
Can't beat it.

I just got a cheap $1 3 pack from amazon, I figured I could use them while I looked around for some better ones. Turned out they were better than I thought. I can't even tell I have a screen protector, and I have 2 spares although a lot of people said that they sucked because they would leave bubbles, but if you've ever applied screen protectors you know that the bubbles are human errors and not the products fault. And for the price why not try them out. But whatever you do DO NOT get that crap wright protect from sprint, those just suck. In case anyone was wondering yes they were cut out, even came with a little card and cloth.
I work in a sprint store, and I ended up ordering the $1.49 anti-glare protectors on ebay.
For one; they are way cheaper than even my employee discount on the Write Right brand 3 pack, and two; they cover the entire front bezel.
They are awesome, go on smooth, and I like that the matte finish makes it smoother to use the screen than the naked gorilla glass. (I'm not worried about scratches as much as the feel of using the screen - big reason I hate the Invisible Shield protectors.)
I still actually like the ones we sell in the store, and I've put on a lot of protectors for customers, and these almost always go on really well with no bubbles, and no need for a squeegee (meaning no need for the top plastic cover.) Some people really like the privacy anti-glare protector that comes in it, but not really a good idea if you want to use it for GPS (unless you have the phone pointed directly at you.)
The write right brand aren't a bad purchase, but to be honest, you could go with the ones in the link above, and get a better product for cheap from a great US seller.
zagg's are probably some of the worst and most overpriced screen protectors. try ghost armor
You can try stealth shieldz there nice cheaper then zagg. Tho zagg is on ebay right now 5 dollars a pop for the kit. also xtream guard is a sweet protector too. All those are worth checkin out.
Sometimes the cheap ass ones work pretty good.

Totally agree, wouldn't own another phone or ipod without the invisable shield.
Best buy has too for 20 but 8>00 to put on for you but they are quick at it and good, definetly worth the extra few dollars to lt them do it.
