Will a TF300 screen protector fit a TF700? - Asus Transformer TF700

Hey, just wondering if the screenprotectors for a tf300 will fit a tf700?
Thx

It won't. The screen are different sizes. A screen protector for the TF201 will fit it though (I can confirm this as I put one on my new TF700T).
Hope this helps!

Actually it will; both are 10" screens. See my post here: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/30390-screen-protectorprotective-case/
The only concern is a VERY minor difference in camera and light sensor hole position.

Cool thanks. So the holes for the camera and light sensor on the tf201 screen protector line up?

That's good to know I just ordered a couple of anti glare protectors for the 201 hoping it will fit. Hoping it doesn't take away from the clarity of the screen.

Please post your thoughts on the anti-glare after you install it. Normally, it's the very first thing I do with my devices (for the anti-glare properties), but I've been hesitant to do this with the TF700, just because the screen is so damn nice... However, if it's doesn't interfere too much, I may re-consider....
Thanks!

No problem I ordered 3.
First 1 to test with half on the screen and the other half of the screen uncovered to see if there is any major clarity loss.
Second 1 if I like the test then it's staying on
Third 1 is backup.
Either or I'm most likely gonna keep it on cause even though screen is bright enough to overpower the glare its still annoying I myself tend to sit on my patio a lot or on my lounge chair next to the Window where the sun is strong. I will take pics and post them to see if you see a major clarity loss. Everyone is different.

Any update as to whether or not you are satisfied with the TF201 screen protector on your 700? reason why I'm asking is my 700 just came in and I'm going to pick it up tonight, thinking of making a stop at best buy to pick up an anti-glare screen protector and wanted to know if I should just grab a 201 vs a 700.
also any specific brand or any anti-glare should do? I'm rocking phantom skinz on my S3, pretty nice quality if you ask me but a screen protector is a screen protector so money comes first here. doing it more for the no-smudge and anti-glare then protecting the gorilla 2

They both fit size wise but you might need a hole puncher to line up the camera and sensor in the front. The 3 I ordered sucked. They take alot from the screen. I still have one left. Check it out I took a glare cover off cause be dock came in a couple of days ago. I had one more anyway. And in the time I took it off and the time I put the new one on I got a very faint but noticable 1mm scratch on my screen. Ask me how and I will tell you I don't know how. Must have been dust on my hand. Sucks
Put a screen cover guys.

I ordered a couple from dealextreme. Someone else said they were good. The downside is they said it will take 3 Weeks till I receive them. Until then I have this screen distorting protector on.

The TF201 seems to be ok. Check this out here. Hope that helps.

I can confirm that our TF201, TF300, and future TF700 are all different screen protection systems. Also hole punch will end up leaving bubbles if you aren't extremely accurate in using one, so be careful! (That is on our dry GLARESHATTER system, wet systems can usually be hole punched fine). Also there is still slight cutting differences!

TF300 screen protectors definitely do not work. I bought a pack of high quality ones for the TF300 I use to own and they are mis-sized AND the camera slots are off (though only a little). The missized protector itself is trouble though as the TF300 is wider.
I got some TF700 screen protectors as I didn't want to risk TF201 protectors. Asus really moved all the buttons around to make the TF700 versus the TF201. I'm guessing putting all the antennae into the little plastic strip part of the tablet forced them to change their pcb.

Just a quick update. I purchased a Zagg screen protector for the TF201 and it fits perfectly on the TF700. Front camera and light sensor align correctly. Anyway, remember this is only in regards to the screen protector, I don't know about the full body protector.

Rubber covers on bottom of tablet?

I received my 700 with the 2 rubber keyboard covers missing from the bottom. It may be trivial but, my concern is that dust my find its way under the screen. Has anyone else received their tablet this way? One other question, I have several areas along the bottom of the screen that have notable screen bleed during boot up. Do others have any screen bleeding?

No covers on mine also.
No screen bleeding.
Gorilla glass seems not to be well glued. Sometimes when i squeeze top left corner of the screen black frame, it clicks.

I have no issues with the screen being glued, just the bleeding at boot up. I had the same issues with screen bleeding on the TF 201. Went thru several replacements and still could not find one without any screen bleeding. Some better than others but none without any.

My TF700 came with two rubber covers to close off the attachment holes the dock pins go into, I believe that is what you are referring to, right, OP? Shame you're probably not based in the Netherlands, as I do not need them and would gladly give them away.
I've heard that Asus discontinued their use after a lot of prime owners tried to dock their tablets without taking the rubber feet out.

Wow nice info thanks.
I really hope that I get those rubber thingys as I do not plan to use the dock.
Is there a rubber thing for the connector too?
Maybe I should make my own?
You could always get the transleeve as it plugs up the ports nicely. the only other option I can think of is to put tape over them or find piece of silicone that might fit in the holes.
Also DarsVaeda mine came with a plastic thingy to fits into the charging port. No silicone nubs in the holes for the keyboard though.
Okay I guess I'll have to wait and see but there is hope
Thanks!

My tf700 also came without covers, but that's been discussed here before and I didn't expect them. However I do have a bit of backlight bleed at the bottom of the screen, but it doesn't bother me as it's only noticeable when you are on a black screen, or at bootup.

Did not see where it was discussed before, I think a good potion of these tablets not only Asus have some sort of screen bleed. Most of the time what you have stays that way, but I know of people who had minor scree bleeding and it got worse.

Hm.. I hope it doesn't worsen in the future. I've owned many other screens (monitors and tv's) with slight bleeding that where hardly noticeable and didn't worsen. Hopefully that's the case with this.

There is a plastic plug/cover for the connector. I'm sure it will eventually get lost.

You know I wonder why asus did not put a spring loaded mechanism in the docking holes. You know kinda like the thing in a PeZ dispenser, when you put the tablet on the dock it would push them in the tablet and when you undock it the covers spring back in place.

Very good idea... That would be a nice solution....
By the way, does anyone else find the USB port "cover" on the dock almost impossible to remove??? I eventually just left it out as it makes the USB port *very* frustrating to use!
I too have some light bleed on the bottom of my TF700. It's really only noticeable on the black boot-up screen though (I guess the backlight is at full brightness during boot-up?)

The case I ordered kind of takes care of this for me:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008FP3LZ8
I don't plan on using a case when I dock it anyway, so that should be fine. I think it's beneficial for people who don't plan on using a dock, so the case they chose can be a more permanent solution.

TF700 / TF201 Antiglare screen protector for $3.95 on Amazon (Prime)

Seems like a awesome deal for $3.95. PCTabletcases confirmed that this screen protector works. There is a bigger camera cutout so it fits both the TF700.

I purchased a 3 pk of Poetic anti-glare protectors and while they are of high quality, I'm still torn between whether I want to leave it on or not... It's not that the screen looks bad with it on, but I know that it looks so much nicer without it!
However, I absolutely *love* the fact the your finger slides so nice across the anit-glare protector and I *love* the fact that fingerprints and smudges are a thing of the past with the anti-glare protector... Decisions, decisions....
I guess the fact that it's still on after a few days says something... I'm thinking the lack of fingerprints and how easily your finger slides over the anti-glare may just be enough to live with the screen quality degradation...
I wonder why these things don't come pre-anti-glare? I mean think about it - when's the last time you saw a computer monitor that wasn't anti-glare? They all are! Why can't tablet mfg's do the same (without reducing the screen quality though)? Surely it can be done?!

I just stated the reasons why! It's not like the screen looks like crap or anything, just slightly less than the screen quality without it... Like the I said, so far, the pros of the anti-glare outweigh the cons...
Have you tried one on your TF700? Until you do, you don't know what you're missing...

I have one on my tf101, No it doesn't look like crap, but it undoubtedly reduces quality of screen, I had no intentions of ever putting on another and definitely not on tf700. I'm not questioning the value, BUT if thats your priority why not stick with lower cost lower rez screen? The 700 is only worth the money because of the screen.

The screen protector doesn't lower the resolution of the tablet! You still get the advantages of the higher resolution screen... Geez, you act like it makes the screen look like it's 640x480 or something! It's just a piece of clear plastic!
I also have a TF101 (well technically, the wife does now) and the TF700 screen is still *much* better looking than the TF101 screen... Besides, the TF700 is much nicer than the TF300, even besides the screen (plastic compared to aluminum, etc)...

Glare doesn't exactly improve the quality of the screen. This thing isn't like a screen that could double as a mirror so much as (esp outdoors) it's like a mirror that could almost double as a screen if you angle it right and squint. I don't have an anti-glare on yet. I wish I could get a sleeve with an antiglare window to pop on it for outdoor use, and be able to take it off the rest of the time. More realistically, I'm thinking of finding the cheapest possible pack of antiglares straight from e. asia, and using them like removables. Reuse them till they won't stick any more, then toss them. I don't use it outside every day, so I might get some decent mileage out of it.
I don't understand why we put up with super reflective glass on our 500-600 dollar tabs, with super IPS+ advertised to make it daylight readable.

Reusing screen protectors is a bad idea, every time you expose the sticky side you pick up more dirt and dust that will sit between the protector and the screen, which is one of the easiest ways to damage the screen.

I would agree with this! It's almost impossible to "re-use" a screen protector, especially over and over again. You'll never get it off and back on again without getting stuff stuck to it...

Outdoors I mostly use the keyboard anyway, not the screen. How about 1 crystal clear protector permanently applied. 1 temporary antiglare protector (cut to be smaller, and probably dog-eared on the corners for easier removal) removed and reapplied for outdoor use. As to being able to reapply it, one need only have something else to apply it to until the next application. It would probably stick to my clipboard, and if not that, I'll find something.

Good luck, but I'd be willing to bet that this will not work out as planned. Even if the sticky side is only exposed for a few seconds, it will attract dust, hair and everything else floating in the air - you'll get bubbles when trying to re-apply it...
Again, good luck but I would keep my expectations low on this method!
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using Tapatalk 2
My expectations aren't high, but how bad will bubbles even show in daylight anyway? I'm not sure I'll try it, but I'd wager bubbles in my temp shield are better than super reflections.
I got one of these and didn't have any issues putting it. It does level my screen with a sparkle effect. As if there are a ton of little particles on the screen shining . Is that an effect from the anti glare portion of it? I do like the feel of my fingers on the screen with this film protector on. For the price I'm happy so far.

Yep, that's definitely the anti-glare'ness that is causing that sparkle effect. You'll find that the amount of "sparkle" varies greatly from one anti-glare protector to the next. Typically, you get what you pay for, but not always. I remember from my iPad days, that I got the best anti-glare protector that I've even had from 5Below for $5 each (which was really cheap at the time).
The Poetic anti-glares that I bought are pretty good - very little "sparkle" effect. Mainly only notable on white screens and even then, it's not bad at all. So far, the anti-glare, anti-fingerprint and super slippery effects of the anti-glare are winning though as I still have my anti-glare installed. I can now go days (maybe even weeks!) without having to clean my screen (instead of cleaning the screen every few hours without the protector). There is definitely a trade-off though.

Which screen protector is most invisible?

I need some advice from those that have a lot of experience with screen protectors...
I had an HTC Thunderbolt phone and when I was at the mall one day I had a screen protector installed at one of those carts/kiosks that is no longer in business. I don't know what brand it was but I really liked the fact that I could barely tell that I had one on the phone.
When I got a new phone I had Zagg install a sceen protector on it, thinking that I would like it because it was Zagg and they are so popular. Well I really hate the way it kind of has an orange peel appearance and it seems to always look dirty/smudged even after cleaning. I think the display looked a lot better without the Zagg screen protector. Maybe they have more than one type of screen protector at Zagg and I just need to choose a different type...
Anyway, with that said, I want a screen protector for my Infinity that will protect it from scratches but I don't care about glare reduction etc. My preference it to not be able to tell I have a screen protector on my Infinity. (I really prefer not to have one at all, but I worry about scratching it even with gorilla glass). Of course I want it to fit properly and not lift off/peel, etc, and I don't mind spending a little more to get a good quality product.
So all you screen protector experts, which one would you recommend???
Thanks in advance for your help!

I have a wrapsol from office depot and love it. You can not tell its onthe screen. I had several large bubbles when i applied it, but their film releases them. Nicest i have ever used. Its a dry application as well. Fit is great with cutouts for dock and camera. Crystal clear and very tough. Works great with my stylus too. I highly recommend them.

I actually bought one for the 300. Fits great. You would need to see the edge of the screen to actually tell its on there. Im as picky as can be with my devices and a cant say enough good things about the wrapsol. Not even the slightest hint of orange peel. Dont waste your money on the cheep one from amazon.

Yes, at least for this brand. I have no issues and the dock cutout is perfect. No issues docking mine. If not cutout for the dock they can peel or not dock properly. I was very impressed with it. This is 10 times better than any zag. The coolest factor was the way the film released the air bubbles. I figured i would end up tearing it off, but i have absolutely NO bubbles after a few days! Still as with any protector the screen must be lint free. I now know exactly what i will be buying for future devices. Give it a try.

Pick one up. They're not cheap ($25). Take your time, make sure the screen is clean, and give it some time for the bubbles to release. Google wrapsol. I found a few reviews helpful with pics. Good luck.
I bought wrapsol tf300 screen protector from office depot, but I'm confused on the fit! I have not installed it yet but from what I see the screen protector will cover the camera but not the light sensor is this correct or I'm I seeing it wrong. If so does the screen protector effect the camera by covering it?

Just another option... I bought the Skinomi. It's a wet one. Make sure you cover all the ports with tape before you do it. I can't see it at all. I've also used other brands and have had similar results except Zagg.

No, you need to turn it over. Your looking at the wrong side. The hole is for the camera. The light sensor is covered, but I have not had any issues with it. There is a protective layer that you will peel off once you have applied the protector as well. I have had mine on for about two weeks and I am very pleased. Make sure the screen is lint free and use the card board piece to help apply and then be patient on the bubbles to disappear. Every bubble I had disappeared, and my screen was full of them. Be easy when you tear the tabs off the protector and removing the finishing layer.
That's weird because I do see the layer I'm suppose to Take off it says to take that's layer off first b 4 installing. But when I take it off its sticky and if i install it sticky side down it covers the Camera. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Still doesn't sound like you're using the proper side. The camera hole is on the right side facing you.
Thanks I finally installed it! I just didn't want to mess up and waste 25 dollars. I just got a lot of bubbles. I will give it time like I said. Thanks. It looks great by the way!!

FYI: I contacted Wrapsol the other day, asking about the TF300 protector on the TF700T and they replied saying:
"Each of our products are designed for the specific device listed on the box. Our product for the TF700T will be available shortly on Wrapsol.com."
That is not to say the TF300 protector does not fit, I'm just conveying what they said. Do you guys see anywhere that the TF300 protector does not quite fit?

I honestly don't know what they could change. I guess they could cut a hole for the light sensor, but i have no issues with it. I promise mine is a perfect fit with or without the dock. The bubbles take time, but they all clear up. Warm sunlight seemed to help as well. I won't be taking this one off period.

Anti glare coating

I am in search for anti glare coating but i dont want something that sticks to fingers or have even worse fingerprint properties than the original screen, does anyone have some recomendation?

I got one from Vimax and it works just perfectly! But i haven't faced any fingerprint problems from any brand's anti glare/matte finish screen guards! I think u are confused with clear screen guards! Those attract fingerprints and get sticky! But not the ones with matte finish!
So search any screen guards with matte finish and go for it!

I wouldn't do it (add an anti-glare protector) - I did just that and it *really* takes away from the beautiful TF700 screen! Not worth it!!

But then the glare from the mirror like screen is too much! Unless u keep the screen brightness beyond 75%, u really can't read anything when the surroundings are bright!

Haven't had that issue myself (not being able to see the screen due to reflection), but just be warned - it basically turns your nice screen into "just another" 1280x800-looking screen. I couldn't believe the difference when I finally removed it (I had it on for about two weeks). I would *never* put another on...

I LOVE Zagg shield. I'm OCD, so fingerprints and smudges REALLY REALLY irk me to no end. I was cleaning screen every 15 minutes.
The Zagg shield is GREAT! LOW glare, and i only have to clean screen couple times a week now.
Lifetime free replacement warranty too. If it gets damaged, or you have to send tablet back for repair, just peel it off, send it in, and they'll send a new one. Only costs shipping.

Doesn't the Zagg have the orange-peel texture though (I know they used it) - used to be "sticky" on the fingers as well - don't have that issue any more?

If your fingers are moist, it will stick a bit. But i noticed same thing without shield. I also use a stylus most of the time.
yes, they have the orange peel effect and "sticky". I never really noticed the orange peel. The sticky is more of comparison to glass. It's not sticky, just has more friction/resistence to your finger. I've been using Invishield on my phones for almost four years, and never bothered me.
I'm using a matte screen protector I picked up from ebay for my tf700. Seems like it's the same as TF300. Loving it so far. No more glass glare and my finger glides a lot easier.

I tried the anti-glare protector route and ended up removing it - the screen quality was degraded too much for my liking - the TF700 screen is just too nice "naked"!

Do you guys use screen protector? If so, which one?

I've been rocking this screen protector (forgot the name) and I don't like the fact that it doesn't feel smooth and such, but I still use them because of the protection
I wanna know if you guys use it or not and why. Also if you guys do use it, which one? Thanks

Nope, because I handle the Tablet carefully and little scratches illustrate all the days the device was on my side.
Only reason for me to use one would be the anti reflective surface. Is it good for that purpose?

Mine does opposite of that
Swyped on my Galaxy Nexus running AOKP with Franco Kernel
I use the Ghost Armor simply for the fact that I let my little brothers play with it now and then. not only that but the keyboard dock could leave marks at times on it. good thing for the skin!
Mine came with one and I took it off. I don't like the feel of one and it just seems like the screen doesn't have as much "pop" to it with one on. They were so needed in the past, but now with gorilla glass and such, they are much more resistant to scratching IMO.
