Has anyone used ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity 700 Screen Protector + Full Body Skin for the TF700? If so, what is your opinion. I wanted to buy a screen protector for my TF700 but I am thinking about getting this instead.
Any other suggestions?
Used on my Galaxy Note.
If you use a hard point stylus, then stay away. I used on my note and it was great, except with the "S-Pen" it messes up and creates this weird almost bubble like look under the skin. This brand of SP is a wet install type. You get a little spray bottle, rubber squeege, and cloth along with the SP. Wet installs are very easy to apply, adjust, remove/reapply untill you get it right (as long as its still wet). It has a slight rubbery feel to it. I grew to prefer it, although some do not like it. This rubbery type texture helps keep it from sliding around when laid down on a center console or dash area of a vehicle and helps you keep from slipping and dropping your device. Expect the front and back pieces to be the only usable pieces, if it comes with any side pieces that are small, they never seem to stay. The company its self is great, many amazon vendors are total crap and are impossible to get decent service through. I love them and will probably get one for my TF700 eventually, but went with a regular clear already as they wernt available.
Chief Geek , thanks for the detailed reply. I forgot to mention that I am fimiliar with the product as I recently used screen protector from the same company for my Nexus 7 and I really like it. My question was more in regards to the quality/fit on TF700 specifically and also wanted to know if putting the full body skin have any issue with docking the tablet.

The fit has always been good, I've used them on a hand full of devices. As for the dock, good questions I don't use a dock KB on mine so it never really crossed my mind. Be sure to update if you go for it and get one. Skinomi makes a carbon fiber full skin too.
I sent an email to ArmorSuit asking about the fitment with dock. Will you know once I get a reply from them.
Update:
Following is the reply that I received from ArrmorSuit
Hello,
Thank you for contacting ArmorSuit.
We apologize for the inconvenience, but our screen protectors are still not compatible with any docking systems.
The same problems with the docking systems, still arises with our screen protectors.

Someone said the tf201 Zagg Sheilds fit perfect on the TF700 so I went and ordered a full body sheild. I will let you know how it fits when I get my next TF700.
I'm getting the Skinomi full body skin for the tablet and dock, will be here tomorrow. Not planning on using the screen protector as I already have an anti-glare one on the tablet, just wanted the body and dock protection.
I'll report back when I get it installed as to how well it fits and works with the dock.
Do those skinomi and the armor cover in the first post cover the sides too.

The Skinomi does and I would guess the other one does do. Here's a pic of the layout for the Skinomi tablet skin (couldn't find a detailed pic for the dock):

I'm thinking about picking up Skinomi one myself. Had the full body skin on Prime and it worked well.
Any other recommended screen protector?

I'm using dark wood from Skinomi, my opinion, it's OK. didn't cover the edge fully, easy to install, nice and flat, almost impossible to have bubbles. You can peel it of and re apply about 10 times. After that, you need a hair dryer, set to warm and blow for a couple seconds for it to stick again. It came with a nice screen protector (wet type). The reason I said it's OK, because when I hold the 700, I felt the rough edge, kind of uncomfortable.
Edit: just did a full review (with pics) for the tablet and dock skinomi skins. Thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29614778#post29614778

Got my Skinomi today (for both the tablet and dock) and so far I've only3 put on the tablet skin. I was eager to see if it would fit in the dock with it on, and it does. It's just a little tight but it does fit. Will do the dock later (more pieces to put on).]

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 )
Yos, I'll look at those....remember to wish someone Happy Birthday today!!!!

I got mine few weeks already from amazon:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/GEL-CASE-SA...W8MW/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1292094897&sr=8-3
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 !

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?
Hey everyone, just got a htc Desire, and loving it. I bought it off of someone and its an unbranded european version. I want to get a good screen protector for it preferably from HTC themselves, but their own branded one is only available in the UK from play.com and I'm in the US. So do you guys know of any great screen protectors I can find online?
Zagg invisible shield.
No Zagg please.
IT's too soft and thick, it's hard to apply. It's adhasive side coming out from it's edges and it' makes dirts to stick on it.
I'm using commuter case oem screen protector and it feels better.

I got one last week and know exaclty what you mean about the sides sticking. mine has pocket fluff stuck to the side. I thought it was fairly easy to apply and fits perfectly though.
I've just bought a cheap silicone case, and another zagg to put under it - so the fluff won't see the sides anymore!!
One word: BRANDO. Have been a great fan of Zagg for a long time; did try Brando once: will never go back! Incredibly clear, smooth as glass, they don't get sticky, not even after months, and they don't get any scratch on them. Simply awesome!
Brando Ultra Clear! probably the best screen protector out there..i have mine for 7+ months and only have some minor scratches.
Martin Fields is really good as well, but gets scratched quicker than brando.
I'm using Martin Fields for about 4 months and yea it does has a few scratches, but not noticeable.
However, the Brando maybe better and is cheaper.

I've had really hard luck with those: first of all i was pissed about the fact that they don't cover the entire screen surface...but the major flaw came in a few days: i started to notice a 1 inch violet/blue halo in the middle of the screen. At first i thought it was something greasy ended there when i applied it, so soon after i removed the protector and tried to clean it, and guess what? It wasn't dirt, it was just the screen protector "fading"! I still have to ask a refound, but i'm just too lazy i guess...in the while i'm using a universal film, but my brando ultra clear is already on its way
I use cheap ones from ebay, great fit, easy to apply and you get 6 in a pack for £1.20, was £1.12 last week when I bought some packs.

That's unlucky. I've not had any problems as such. In fact I don't even realise it's on most of the time. The selling point for me was the camera lens protector
Mine one has left about 1mm from the bottom, and a very very minimal gap (0.25-0.50 mm) around the other edges.
Better luck with brando (it does sound like an excellent product).

Have something that is quite the opposite to what you wrote. It's Martin fields screen protector.
It's stiff, thin, no adhesive, you can wash it in warm water (both sides), easy to apply and if you fail you can re apply it again and again and again

Hi all,
My TF700 won't leave my home (I have a Nexus 7 for that) but I would like to still protect it with as little bulk as possible. If I do go out I'll put it in a protective pouch.
I know there are TPU / Silicone cases for the Prime but I believe the buttons are in different locations so I'm looking for protective skins that are designed specifically for the Infinity.
Thanks,
I'm looking for something like this as well. Would be even better if there was one that would work with a dock. Anyone have any recommendations?
None to my knowledge. Not sure if they were made for previous models, but if so you could cut the holes inbthw right places.

I am also waiting for a silicone/rubber/TPU case to be made... don't much like the leather ones.
There were some made for the prime, with good feedback. Not sure how long it will take before we start seeing them for the tf700.

Oops, wrong thread, sorry.
Hopefully one shows up eventually
I've setup a Google Alert for tf700 tpu cases on ebay. Hopefully one shows up some day.
I'd love a TPU case for my TF700, and it's keyboard dock. It would make it indestructible!
Ok, maybe not... But then I really could stop worrying about it so much. For the time being though, I'm waiting on my Skinomi Carbon Fiber skins for both the TF700 and the dock to arrive.

No, it doesn't fit into the dock with the tpu-case on, you have to remove it or remove a part of the case.
Currently I'm using the same case desiged to fit a tf300 and cut some more holes (microHDMI, headphone, more space for miscrosd) into it.
The grip is very good. Compared to my nilkin cases (One X and Nexus 7), theses cases feel better, because of rough areas where you normaly hold your devices, this case is completely smooth.
I will update my impressions as soon i have the real tf700 case.

Currently i only have one case, tf300 with cuts to fit my tf700. As soon i have the ones for my tf700 i will cut the old one to fit into the keydock.
Maybe it will keep its stability, but currently i dont want to risk ruining my tpu-case, i need it to protect my tablet. :laugh:
If usps & our custom authorities are fast i will have my case in about 2 weeks, if they're slow it can take 2 months or more.
Maybe someone within the us of a will be faster with an reviev, but i will give feedback asap.

Updated links to ebay with "smoke"-case.
They had a mistake in the description of the smoke-case, they wrote "tf300" instead of "tf700", now the description seems to be right.
I linked all available colors: blue, purple and smoke.
Currently i have their case for the tf300 with (ugly looking ) homemade cutouts in smoke, it's a transparent grey, so you can see the "asus" brand through the case.
It feels more like ruber then my nillkin cases, hard to describe the tactile feeling.
I got mine today. Purple of course =)

Ordered the gray one, and cut it up so that the keyboard attaches, not too bad.
Only problem seems to be my protractor skills, and a bit of clipping when opening the screen all the way back. Works great though

I'm planning to get a skinomi carbon fiber skin for my infinity cos Im starting to hate cases now (don't even have one for my mobile).
But I want something to protect my screen and use as a stand and not cover the back.
Perfect I'll get the transleeve.
EXCEPT I can't seem to get the thing from anywhere!!!!
I'm from Australia BTW, so no retail stores sell it (that I'm aware of). The only ones I can find on the net are on eBay, but its pink. There is also another seller from the UK but they have it from $80 !!!!
Where can I get one of these covers. Otherwise I might have to settle for a sleeve with a built in stand or something.
I bought this one:

Have been using it for the last couple of days and this has been the best case I've owned. It looks nice and is convenient enough to take anywhere. Well worth the money and is even better than some of my more expensive cases...

Overall I am very happy with it. It's a decent shell that cradles the unit with a "leather" that wraps around that. I don't know how
genuine any of these materials are but they seem fine.
The ring in the middle seems to be where all the magic happens. It spins very easily.
In response to rndmnss's concern over the ring scratching the back of the infinity I spun my
infinity around in this thing like a propeller for a bit and after taking it out I couldn't see any
scratches, BUT the way the back of the infinity is polished (those circular patterns) I'm not sure
I would've been able to tell if it was scratching it. I to a picture with a playing card against the ring
to show just how close it really is. If I was really concerned about it scratching I would file just a
little off of the ring. There is enough there it shouldn't mess with functionality to lose a little.
The only problem i had was when using the case as a stand once it sat a little crooked after
looking around i seen that the back hadn't rotated completely. It was an easy adjustment and
hasn't happened since.
I wasn't sure about the edges at first. They look like they were melted to the right size but they
seem to grab the four corners just fine.
The cutouts are good everywhere for me. Volume and Power buttons seemed weird at first but
thats just because i was so use to them with no case. Camera also seems pretty protected.
There are only two positional grooves in the microfiber instead of three on most. Another one or two
would have been nice for versatility but these work just fine in both portrait and landscape orientations.
The thickness of it also works well. Feels slim yet thick enough that there is plenty to hold on to.
The case fits tight enough that there is NO room inside i would feel comfortable squeezing a stylus into
it but there is plenty of room to slide the clip on the stylus in the edge. I bend the clip so it would fit
more to my liking (not to hard or soft).
Spinning it 180 degrees and closing works great for charging. Without a dock to test with I'm not sure
if there is enough room to plug it into one when in this position.
Overall I really love it (especially for $15). Once I get a keyboard dock I will need to look at some other
options but this would still be great for when not using the dock and it comes in and out of the case easy
enough you could swap between this another case without any trouble.
This is the listing I used
http://www.ebay.com/itm/160888793528?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
Bought it on 10/04 and it arrived on 10/12
Hope this helps.

I had bought mine from the same listing. I haven't had any problems with it whatsoever and am very happy with my purchase.
EDIT: Forgot to say that you won't be able to use the dock with this case.

looks like just what i was looking for. might order soon... thx for the reply:good:
Wow,
Pretty sweet!
It protects the corners.
Wish I could run to a store a get it right now.
Nice case.
Yeah I got one of those for my iPad. It a great type of case but it really adds quiet a bit of bulk, which is what I'm actually trying to avoid with the whole skin + transleeve thing here. I mean what's the point of buying a tablet this thin when I'm just going to add a cover which adds so much bulk.
I hate to say it but apple knew what they were doing when they made the smart cover + case. Gives enough protection while still keeping the tab slim. I don't know what more you could ask for.
The Asus transleeve had good potential except for the fact that the build quality is apparently horrible and it didn't really have a closing mechanism to keep the cover from flopping around. Also the whole scratching thing (but the skin would have kinda protected it from that).
I'm sure I would have got a few looks from those iPad owners when i folded up that weird origami stand.
Oh well ill just buy a standard sleeve then ... disappointed.
I don't worry about the glass very much. It's Gorilla glass 2, which can take quite a beating. heck, I dropped an inifinity onto a concrete floor from about five feet. Glass was prefectly fine. Can't say that about the rest of the case; metal bend, plastic cracked through.
Personally, I just bought a netbook sleeve for storage and transportation. Bought a portable folding stand. I keep the charger, stand, and various cables in sleeve pouch. Not perfect, but works enough. Then again, I wasn't trying to have an Android iPad.
I'd really like a "smart cover" type of case too. I know Asus sells one, but the engineering seems to be pretty bad.
Promised to do a review on this screen protector, so paulo this one's for you. Haha. Well I've had this screen protector on for about 4 weeks now, and I absolutely love it. I would definitely recommend it, especially for those on a budget. A $5.95 well spent.
Pros:
Dry application
Precise cut outs
Great touch responsiveness (Swyping with this bad boy is a breeze.)
No fingerprints
No smudges
Better visibility in sunlight
Looks sexy lol
Cons:
Took me 2 out of the 3 protectors to get it on right, or without bubbles. Maybe I'm just not good at that.
Screen quality degradation (This is expected with a anti-glare/matte screen protector. There is some pixelation, which is really noticeable on white backgrounds.)
You can but it HERE.
Pictures that took me forever.

Thanks for the review. I already ordered mine and just wanted to check out some more images of it. Out of curiosity, what case are you using? Also is there a notice gap between the protector and the lip of the case? The first few images make it seem like it, but the rest make the gap appear small.

I'm guessing you are taking about the difference between this picture of the screen protector:
vs
Well there are two reasons.
1. I didn't apply the screen protector perfectly. You can also see the little bubbles created by dust left on the screen. So I took it off, and tried again.
2. Two different cases. I doubt this affects it, however, considering I switch the cases out per week and the gap between the screen protector and the case doesn't increase or shrink.
I have two cases. The white one the Mercury TPU Nexus 4 case(comes in many different colors), and the black one is the Acase Superleggera Pro Hybrid dual layer Nexus 4 case(also comes in different assortments).
I'm also using this screen protector and I love it too,great price ya can't go wrong with these. ????

I bought this screen protector 3 months ago but never used it, as it looks like a hassle to apply if it takes going through most of them to get one that is applied properly. I just kept the stock plastic protector on mine; maybe after that gets destroyed I will give it a try.

its pretty simple just be quick, and i would day do it in the restroom, less dust in the air. always works for me.
I've installed countless screen protectors for me and friends. For the wet ones, you definitely want to be in a steamy bathroom as that helps settle the dusts. The dry ones, need to be done quickly. You can slip a small piece of tape between the screen and the screen protector to grab some of the dust. The stickiness of the tape beats the static force created by the protector. Not sure of its technical name.
My silliest method was to put the phone in the middle, on top of a fan blowing air upwards. That way it created a space where dust will not be. It worked perfectly.
Any place to buy this internationally?

Man. That sucks. Well honestly if you wanted to. I could buy one and then post it up onto eBay and you could buy it off of me for the same price. Just the shipping cost would be different since you're international. Not trying to advertise or anything just suggesting.

i`m surprised that there is no bubbling at the edges at the price the Halo is selling... or is it not caught on the picture?
I assume this will be the same for the glossy version?

Not sure man. Try looking for it in the amazon website in your country.

I mean, I guess there is. But to notice the bubbling you would have to nitpicking or looking in with a magnifying glass (not really). I'd say the bubbling on the side is about .25 cm from the edge. Really slight, and with my case on you can't notice it.
Slightly off topic, but what case is that on your N4 OP?
