I had a Skinomi skin on my Infinity that was just great. I bought the keyboard dock. It ruined the skin. When you dock it, it squishes the bottom of the skin at the two connector points. Sad about that. So it's back to naked. I think you could cut 1/4" off the bottom of a skin and it would work but you would have that thin line where the skin ends above the bottom of the tablet.

I'm going to agree the it's the addition of the screen protector. I have the full carbon on mine and no issues with the dock, but I left the screen protector off, figuring that Gorilla Glass 2 was enough protection for me, and the dock acting as a protector itself, works.
I just wish I could get a carbon skin to match for the dock now...
I guess I should have been more clear... I was referring to the Skinomi clear skin SCREEN protector. I had the carbon fiber on it too and the carbon fiber does not interfere with the dock. However, the front clear screen protector proved incompatible with the dock. I wish they noted that on their web site.

Aha! I don't think a one of us have actually put the screen protector on.
I had one that came with the skinomi carbon, but never applied it. I was actually debating to do that today, but now I guess I know better than that.
Hmm. That stinks. I was looking at getting a Skinomi skin and the screen protector. The one they had for the Prime actually had it cut out where the dock overlapped the screen so that the screen protector wouldn't interfere with the dock and get all bunched up. I assume the ones for the TF700 don't have that?

They do not. I emailed and suggested they make just such a product. Maybe they are working on it.

I cut about a half inch off the bottom of the front screen cover. The foam on the dock was getting pushed downward because of the extra with of the rear and front covers. I didn't want to cut the rear since I rest the tab on its back. A half inch off the bottom front still covers the main screen. It only exposes some of the black screen border. Which doesn't really get touched anyway. Works fine. Just looks weird. Would have been nice to just outline were the dock covers and just cut that out but I already had the screen cover on.

I wonder if the TF201 screen protector would work for the TF700 then....since that one has it ( Pre-cut section for dock). Seems strange that they wouldn't have included that in the one for this model as well.
I have Zagg screen protector and Skinomi decals and my dock fits fine.

I went ahead and ordered the Skinomi brushed steel skin and a TF201 screen protector (indicated as dock compatible on their site). I can now officially confirm that the TF201 Dock Compatible screen protector fits the TF700 perfectly. It comes pre-cut for the dock so that it will not bunch up or cause a snug fit when you dock it to the keyboard. If you decide to order one, make sure you get the screen protector that indicates it is compatible with the dock. The one that is NOT compatible with the dock does not have the pre-cut section at the bottom. Hope this helps!

Its this the same specs as the Prime?
I am trying to buy a case and screen protector for it.
Help....
I think it's similar enough that anything that isn't made to fit will fit it loosely. What kind of case are you talking about? The screen protector should fit, it's similar enough. Test the size before you put it on.

The case should probably fit no problem, it might be looser or tighter than the Prime, but it should fit just fine. I'm not sure if you need the screen protector, but the Prime and Infinity have pretty much the same size.
I just ordered this one from Amazon. Less than $20, genuine leather and comes with a stylus.

The case is referenced as being specifically fit to the TF700, so that means a return policy option if it would not, contrary to expectations. The screen protector would probably fit -- as said, trim the edges from the dock connector areas if you use the dock -- but ask yourself if you really want/need to sacrifice sharpness of the screen for a slight amount of added protection. The screen itself is one of the main selling points, remember?
I'm wondering why bother with a screen protecter when it's got Gorilla Glass? There are videos of people using the TF101 as a cutting board with no ill-effects. Here's the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUcJnwyCtes
I haven't used a screen protector at all with my TF101 for the year that I've had it. It does have a case, and the keyboard, so it's not like the screen is exposed for abuse much, but I have not noticed any scratches at all on the screen.

I wouldn't compare too different products. Screens are fused with the main body on different ways causing differences in durability. Also another thing to consider is that my old phone had Gorilla Glass but scratched way more than my non Gorilla S2. Honestly I think Gorilla Glass are just like Beats headphones a marketing gimmick or masterpiece depend in on how you look at it.

I recently got the new TF700T work and am thinking about putting the Zagg Invisible Shield on the screen only. However we have the keyboard dock too, and I'm concerned about how well this will work.
Does anyone have the screen protector on theirs and use the dock? If so, are there any problems getting it to dock properly or does the protector start to lift up due to adding thickness?
I had the shield and the skin on the original transformer with dock and had no problems with it, see pic of skin below. As long as it installs correctly it should be fine. That being said I never bothered with my TF201 or my TF700 - Gorrila glass helps minimise scratches on the screen only problem is that the back isn't protected and you get finger marks on the screen. The shield makes the screen grippier so not as nice to use as no skin but that is the trade off you make

Yep: http://eee.asus.com/en/eeepad/transformer-infinity/features/
Doesn't mean that you won't need or want a screen protector though.
I don't use any screen protector for my tf700(whole family using it), droid Charge (my son and I using it)or galaxy S3(wife and daughter) and up until today, no scratch on any of them.
I don't use a screen protector on my tablet. However, my Samsung Captivate (just over 2 years old) has recently began scratching for some reason. But it doesn't really bother me since in a few months I'll buy a new phone anyways.

Oftentimes, the screen protector is not used for the most obvious effect of protecting the screen, but also to reduce glare (especialy when outisde or in high-intensity (i.e., harsh) lighting. That might be a reason for going for that screen protector anyway, the fact that the TF700 has Gorilla Glass 2 notwithstanding...
I would, however, highly recommend *against* using an anti-glare screen protector on the TF700 - I installed one when I got my TF700 and after two weeks or so, I removed it once I saw how nice the naked screen looked on my new Nexus 7. All that I can say is - WOW - the anti-glare protector *really* made a beautiful screen look bad! If you are going to use an anti-glare protector, you might as well just buy the TF300 instead since all of the resolution benefits will be "hidden" under that 10 dollar screen protector!

Absolutely no point to using a screen protector on the transformer. Unless you literally chuck things at it or chuck it around carelessly?

Couldn't agree with you more, and it's exactly why I've never used screen protectors myself. For some, the glare's too much. though.

Especially with the dock connected -- the laptop-fold makes it oen of the best-protected items in my work bag. Except maybe for the cookies I used to take along for the night shifts -- they oftentimes underwent cookie genocide during the train commute to work.
So many "do i need a screen protector" threads i dont know why these are not auto-locked...
Yes, you have gorilla glass.
Yes, gorilla glass WILL scratch
You CAN get dents / micro scratches / even full sized scratches in GG
You CAN use a device and never scratch the screen even without a screen protector the same way you CAN go to a dorm party and not get drunk. Just depends on you.
A screen protector CAN make it harder to swipe (esp the military grade ones)
A screen protector CAN reduce image quality
A screen protector CAN save your screen from getting worse damage and potentially needing to replace your screen.
Use your head. Gorilla glass is glass. It can scratch. Maybe not with something sharp like a razor blade but if you get grit or dust dirt rocks etc and it rubs against the glass that can and will make a scratch.
Anyone who lives in a place where they put gravel down in the winter knows it doesnt take long before you get pits all over your windshield. Those same pits can happen in gorilla glass. Yeah, you may not have scratches, but you can get all kinds of dings and whatnot. Hell, my S2 had a nice sized scratch along the bottom and that had gorilla glass.
You have to decide do you want the protection of a screen protector or do you want the tradeoff of a screen protector. If you like the feel of glass, dont want fingerprints, etc. there are oileophobic screen protectors out there (cost a bit more but better quality), dont feel like rubber, dont leave fingerprints, easy to replace if you do scratch them
Oh, and for those of you with a gorilla glass screen that IS scratched, give this a read:

The local Samsung shop put their own screen protector on my 12.2 and I'm not happy with the friction between it and the S-Pen (too much). I have the Logitech cover/kb coming in the mail and when it arrives I am considering just ditching the screen protector entirely. I've owned several Samsung phones sans protectors and never got them scratched.
Thoughts?
Tempered glass screen protector or nothing if the feel of glass is what you prefer. There's a thread about them in the accessories section.
I went ahead and got a zagg invisible shield for mine (until my mime tempered glass gets here saturday) and actually have to say Im pretty please with the performance. I had to get a hard squeegee since the one that comes with it is too soft to apply properly. The screen works rather well with the spen. Havent had any issues thus far. Pretty happy with it. I am using the rubber tips btw. The plastic may be different. Still switching to tempered glass though

Skip the screen protector. Only consider it if you frequently jam your phone into your pocket next to keys and change, which is definitely not a problem with this tablet.

I don't know about the glass yet, mine should arrive today (Yea!!!), but the plastic one I have from amazon, sucks for the pen, I feel the rubber tip disintegrating as quickly as I write. The glass should be much better.
Matte screen protector with hard nib
I use a matte (anit-glare/anti-fingerprint) screen protector on both my note 12.2 and my note 10.1 (2012) with the hard plastic nib on the s-pen (not the soft rubbery one). The texture of the matte screen protector make it feel more like writing on paper.
When using the bare glass (no screen protector) I prefer the writing experience of the rubber nib on the s-pen because it gives the right amount of resistance to emulate writing on paper. However, my palm sometimes sticks when I try to slide it (depending on the amount of moisture on my hand).
I prefer to use a matte screen protector because my palm never sticks (even if my palm is sweaty). However, the rubbery nib causes too much resistance for the s-pen with the matte screen protector, so I use the hard plastic nib instead (which is just right).
Visually, the matte screen protector decreases the clarity of the screen and reduces glare. There is still some glare in extreme environments and I don't notice the degradation in visual quality. Ultimately, I use the notes for handwriting so I don't care about the visual effects of the screen protector either way.

So I bought this skin + screen protector:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074TZ2Y5M/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I already installed the back and sides, it fits quite good, there is no cut out for the mic but it seems to work fine. The 360 camera works fine. I will install the screen protector tonight so the adhesive works overnight. Will post pics tomorrow but so for the skin is great if you want to order one.
I tried both Skinomi and PhantomSkinz. Skinomi has slightly orange peel effect while PS is smoother and better, but I guess the price reflects the difference...
