Has anyone tried out Ghost armor? And feedback? Let me know thinking about getting full body with a matte finish or carbon fiber

I was using ghost armor at the first I bought this phone, I love this screen guard.
easy installation and very tough surface.
i love beach, even a sand cannot scratch it
I recommend you to use one too

I'm currently using ghost armor. It's a very good protector but there is a big issue. The case sometimes peels the protector from the screen. It gets worst if the device is hot and the weather is humid.
The store that glued it for me promised to redo it if something happens so I went there and they gave me a new protector. Don't know how long it will hold..

Do they even make it for the Nexus 4? I can't find it on their site.

I've always had good experiences with these skins.

Was just about to post this as well. Got their email and they are on discount right now and ordered as well.

Yep, already ordered.
Guess I have to buy this phone now lol
To my fellow UK buyers, the total protection is £7.23 ish after international postage and currency conversion. (Via PayPal)

Thanks for this, wasn't going to have a cover but the feel a little worried about the glass on the back
How's the overall quality of their body protectors and screen protector? Orange peel, screen degradation, etc? I'm think of picking up their whole kit and just a bumper for my N4

What i dont like about this brand is that you use liquid soap to apply them wth, you put liquid soap on your device´s screen? that can´t be right
Do they ship to europe?
Yeah I never understood the soap thing.I still have the spray from my zagg so I'm just gonna use that
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
You don't actually put soap on your phone, its in the water then rinsed out.
Even though you can't see the soup once rinsed out,
It makes the water have a slight oily substance which helps to cure the skin and helps to apply it.

Ima order one. Never used this brand but it will have to do .

Do these skins cover it all? With the glass I need it on both glass surfaces at minimum. I would also like the sides covered as well. Does this company or any other cover that? Soft touch is great but I baby my devices. Having that extra bit of protection and cushion could mean the difference between getting a crack or not in a small fall.

Fit is nice. But After a while the screen starts the crater and look crappy.

I never had issues with BSE. I tried almost all the other types of skins but I always seem to find myself coming back to their product.

Can you elaborate more? , I don't fully understand
, what do you mean you rinse the water, I know what rinse is but rinsing the water makes no sense to me, sorry English is not my main language
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
What he means is that soap is not directly applied to the phone. It is diluted in water then the solution is sprayed to the skin. The amount of soap needed is very small. It is just enough to make the solution slippery so that when the skin is applied, you can slide it over the device for adjustment.

BSE is good quality, but it has orange peel effects like Zagg and others. I'd suggest something like XO Skins or Skinomi for the screen, as they don't have that problem.
Just ordered one. I use BSE on my HOX and it's fantastic, minimal orange peel effect and feels smooth to the touch. Much better than Zagg or Skinomi imo, I've not tried XO.
Xo is a good company... fast shipping etc but their skins are very rubbery. I'd rather have a little orange peel than have my finger stick. I had that on my nexus 7 and even after a couple months it didn't go away.
I ordered from bse but have never used them before. They claim to have changed their film for 2012 to make it feel better, apply easier, etc. How is their fit?

Just ordered the full package. Hope the phone doesnt get all scratched up before this gets here :/ Reviews are saying the back scratches like a b*tch.
Think I'll get the skins, first reading the title I laughed out loud 'four skins' faux pas or just my British sense of humour
Do not know it has been asked before or not...
I am using XG screen protector on Nexus 4 with Diztronic case, to be honest it feels rubbery and struggling on the edges. Sometimes it does come off because of the case. Now hunting for new screen protection. Happy with case though.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Yeah you need either a case fit wet application or a dry application.
I recommend SGP ultra olephobic. Using that with my diztroniz and it works great

Does the SGP screen protector goes up to the edges and wet application?? How much it is in UK?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Case optimized screen protectors do not cover the edges. Also it's dry application

No does not go up to edges.
I'm using SGP ultra crystal with my poetic bumper and I also have a ringke hybrid fusion case ..and the sp is really great with both.
Does not lift. Not a single scratch yet.

Wait does this mean that XtremeGuard + Diztronic TPU case isn't a good match?
I didn't quite understand what you didn't like about it. Are you saying the edges of the screen protector start peeling?
Yes it has starting peeling from top with case on....

Damn! Thanks for the reply. I'll look at other case / screen guard combinations then.
Just checked out Acase Superleggera Pro Case, and that seems just as good as the Diztronic. Will this peel off the screen guard too?
To answer the question: I have the Gadgetshieldz optimized screen protector. They peel a little bit with my Diztronic and Acase. The Rinke fusion doesn't have this problem.

I've been using XtremeGuard screen protector with my diztronic tpu since I got my nexus 4.. its fine for the most part. Check the ditronic case thread and the xtremeguard protector thread for other peoples experiences. As long as you get the edges of the screen protector under the edges of the case it actually holds the protector on pretty well. I think i put mine on slightly low so sometimes ( once every few weeks ) one of the corners starts peeling a little from moving around.. I just lift it up and push it back under with my fingernail.. or you can take it out and put it back in.. also gives an opportunity to clean the dust out from the case..

Not a fan. The silicone is flimsy and our doesn't really cover the lip of the phone that well. Horrible case imo

It's a minimal dual layer, I have one for my gs3, as well as an otterbox. The otterbox has more protection but you gain mass and heft. I like the incipio because it is slim but still offers good protection
I actually had this one on my phone and was paying for it in the store but I scrubbed the purchase before I could even check out. I think it looks really nice and will probably give good drop protection, but the flimsy silicone would drive me crazy. When you push the side buttons the silicone would buckle. The silicone in the top and bottom didn't fit snugly. JMO. Like I said I looked the way it looked. It was the brushed aluminum dual pro shine with black silicone. Just not snug enough of a fit for me.

I saved my phone from a 6 ft fall right onto the hard floor.I guess some people just dont know cases.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
I have had this case on my S4 since I got the phone thru verizon, about 10 days . Black on black. I wanted a slim case with decent drop protection. This was a good compromise. The soft inner core does over lap on to the front of the screen a bit, wich is good as I can lay the phone face down without damaging the screen. The soft rubber inner core does attract lint where it is exposed, but I expected that.
so far I am happy with the case. But, I have not dropped it .....yet...:laugh:

I was recently using a spg ultra clear with my official bumper, there is now a small scratch inside the rather spaceous gap occupying the side of the screen protector. This is frustrating.
I am in need of a projector that will cover the entire face of the phone, and still work with the bumper.
I have tried xtremeguardz while using a regular case and they started to peel almost immediately
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I'm using XtremeGuard (both on the front and back) and it's getting along perfectly with the bumper.

+1 for Best Skins Ever. They make a case/bumper optimized version specific to mesh with cases.
After using Skinomi and Xtremeguard which are both wet installs I also recommend Bestskinsever Bumper Optimized. Will make it really easy for you to order any case you like without having to worry about the corners peeling.
I have a poetic bumper with spigen uc sp.. Works awesome. Not a single scratch on it yet, and I've had it for more than six months.
Also have a dbrand black carbon fiber back cover...the bumper is grey and red, looks awesome.

I had xtremeguards for a while. Got tempered glass (maru), didn't work, and forgot I ran out of the XGs lol. I opted to try the BSE because I loved them on my Nexus One back in the day. Both XG and BSE are wet installs and IMO are the best ways to install screen protectors. There's room for error and that is great for people like me .
XG played fine with bumper. I ordered a case optimized version from BSE and should be waiting for me at the office on Monday. I'll post pics of the resulted install and post a mini review/opinion on it.
I reccomend a 4$ plastic one off amazon , I have an xtremeguard on my second one and I have lines vertical all over the screen that make rainbows , I use it with a boxwave cse and its not peeling but the back protector is scratched up to

what is the lightest case for our n4? i have a nillkin frosted case but it added a significant weight to it. so significant that i strained my pinky that supports the phone when i hold it with one hand. i would go naked but i place my phone on the table often so i want to protect it atleast from scratches at the back glass. thanks

This works great. However, in my case it eventually started to peel just enough to about me. So I put my bunker back on also so there's no way to peel at the edges.
