Iphone Screen Protector & Cover

I'm sorry if im posting in the wrong place im new to these forums and i have a huge question about Screen Protectors and covers...
The protector that my screen has is starting to come off from the bottom and im scared i might scratch my screen if i lose it all together so ived been looking into protectors that are being sold online and i found these two that people seem to recommend:
http://www.bestskinsever.com/servlet/the-69/iPhone-Total-Body-Skin/Detail#itemad ded
which is only 10 bucks shipped but only covers the screen. OR
http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield/apple-iphone-cases-screen-protectors-covers- skins-shields.php
which is about 26 but covers the whole phone plus they have a pretty convincing video heh... any who im wondering if any of you own either of these and can recommend me one. Thanks again and let me just say this phone is by far the best phone i have ever owned but im sure im not the only one who thinks that

Ordered Zagg's Invisible shield when I ordered the phone, both arrived on the same day and that night I applied the front and back. The front was easy enough and looks great. That "orange peel" kinda look doesn't bother me at all and I rest assured knowing my screen is protected from the beginning.
The back shield took me a long time to apply, I had to re-apply several times 'cause I was not happy with how it was ending up. It was easy enough to peel back off and re-apply but I needed more solution. The box says you can just add water to the little spray bottle and be good to go. I did this and it worked fine.
Once finished, I left it alone to cure but in the end I was unhappy with the back shield. It didn't conform as much as I would have liked and I could feel it as i used the phone. I wasn't able to get it on there as perfect as I would have liked. It is a chore. In the end I took it off and it's been off for over two weeks and I have yet to have any scratches on the back of my phone. I am careful with it and whenever I do place it anywhere it's face-down, as the shield is on the screen and protects the phone if it slides, which is hard as it is since the tackiness of the material pretty much keeps it in place.
On a side note. There's a video of how someone left their Invisible Shielded phone on the roof of their car as they drove on the highway and it stayed in place due to the tackiness of the material. I thought this was silly until I absentmindedly did the same thing myself. I didn't get very far, but I did drive enough that any other phone would have slid right off. I didn't realize it was on my roof till I got a call, my bluetooth car hands-free kicked in, and I heard the phone vibrate....over my head.
In the end I would say the product is very highly recommended; you may have an easier time applying the back shield. I love the protection I get on the screen, and it is as good as "naked." No bulk at all. Also, if you're ever stupid enough to forget your phone was placed on the roof of your car as you fished for your keys...you haven't lost your investment.

  • Difference between iTouch 4g screen protector & iPhone screen protector?

    Is there a difference between an iPod Touch 4g screen protector and an iPhone screen protector? I need a new one but want to get one from a store instead of ordering online. Thanks for the help!

    The protectors come with cutouts for the fro camera and the cameras are located in different part of the front of the device. Also, the covered dimensions of the screens are slightly different.

  • Clearplex iPhone screen protector?

    Does anyone use a Clearplex iPhone screen protector? Looks like a great product, but there are very little reviews to back up the hype. If not, what is the best screenprotector for the iPhone?

    It came with 2 protectors but I lost the other one since the first one still looks great. Its been on for months and with the constant use in and out of the phone holster, etc it still looks good. Can't help you in regards to if there's a residue or anything.

  • IPhone Screen Protector

    I have had my iPhone 3G only a week or so and I am concerned about protecting the touch screen. I have a 3 pack of screen protectors and they appear to be o.k. At the Apple Store they recommended and I purchased Invisible Shield by ZAGG. Installing this reputedly fantastic screen protector is rather involved and I was wondering if anyone has had experience with this product. It does not appear to be something that is easily removed once it is applied. I am concerned that it may affect the touch of the phone. The iPhone appears to be all about touch and I don't want to screw it up by applying something I know nothing about.

    I used a screen protector for about a month but took it off because the iPhone's screen is glass and very, very hard to scratch... mine is about 9 months old and looks brand new. I do use an iFrogz Luxe case to cover the sides and back though. I used several screen protectors on my Dell PDA but that had a plastic screen that definitely needed protection. Screen protectors can be difficult to apply but easy to remove and I've never seen one that affected the touch sensitivity.

  • Recommendations for iPhone Screen Protector

    I have purchased both kinds you can get at the apple store and I just purchased another set at the AT&T. The ones at Apple are okay, but still impossible to put on without having air bubbles and the ones at AT&T are just cheap. With that being said, does anyone have any recommendations on the best screen protector you can buy. Call me a perfectionist, but I don't want ANY air bubbles and I want a screen protector that lasts longer than just a few months.
    Thanks!

    The best one I've found is offered by 3M. It's a screen protector that has a special coating that makes it hard to read from any angle except straight on - great for prying eyes! Very durable protector, and applied easily with no bubbles. I highly recommend it! I ordered it direct from 3M, just Google it and it'll come up.
    Good luck!

  • Does dust under the iphone screen protector cause problems for the retina?

    I dont have bubbles under the protector but if I reflect the screen under light I can see tiny dust particles under the protector, they are small white dots. So will this cause issues for the screen and is it worth removing the screen protector itself to fix or will it do nothing to the resolution of the phone?

    will this cause issues for the screen
    No
    will it do nothing to the resolution of the phone?
    no

  • What is the Best iPhone 5 Screen Protector?

    What is the Best iPhone 5 Screen Protector? Anyone have any recommendations?

    I've used no less than 10 different types of iPhone screen protectors. Most are either difficult to put on (Zagg, invisible shield, etc.) or just plain suck (too thick, bubbles, folds, etc.). The HD are the best covers out there. They are very easy to apply bubble free. They also stay on once applied. Others that go on easy often fold up when a case is applied. This one does not. I use a Speck case which curled the other easy apply protectors but did not curl this one. Great product!

  • I just got a screen protector put on my iphone and I put it in to charge and now it won't turn on or charge

    I got the Iphone screen protector put on and it was working perfectly before and after. BUT when I went to charge it due to low battery it won't charge or turn on. There is condensation within the camera lens. What is the problem?

    The installers use water to get the air bubbles out of the film. Looks like they got a little heavy handed with yours. You warranty is now voided (there are moisture indicators in the phone). You will need the screen protector people to replace your phone.
    Since they will likely decline, if you are in the US, threaten to file a claim on their insurance for damaging your property in thier control.

  • Looking for Screen Protector for A5500-H / A8-50

    I'm looking for a good but reasonably priced screen protector for my Mum's new A5500-H. I know there's loads of cheap ones on e-bay but I've tried them for other devices before and found they don't apply very well or have a nasty rough surface that your finger sticks to, making the device unpleasant to use. I've got the model with two speakers, so need cutouts for them at each end. Generally I think the Matte protectors are better as they cut down on reflections, even if they do make the screen a bit less clear/sharp.
    I really want a pack of at least two, in case I mess up applying the first one or just as a spare for future. This one's cheap enough to buy two but I've not come across kwmobile before, so they might not be any better than the e-bay ones.
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/kwmobile%C2%AE-protector-ANTI-GLARE-resistant-against/dp/B00KPX8DE2/ref=pd_s...
    This on the other hand is quite expensive at £11.69 for two but I think I at least recognise the brand, although there's only one review so not enough information to know if they're actually any good
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/atFoliX-Screen-Protection-Lenovo-IdeaTab/dp/B00JKOWAUA/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qi...
    I was hoping to find something decent around £4 or £8 for two.
    Xtremeguard I think are OK and this seems like a good price for three but coming from the US I'll have no recourse if it turns out to be rubbish as it will cost more to send it back than it's worth
    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3-Pack-Clear-HD-XtremeGuard-HI-DEF-Screen-Protector-Cover-For-Lenovo-A8-50...
    The fact that they're selling this single one for more than that pack of 3, makes me concerned that the latter might not be very good
    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-XtremeGuard-LCD-Screen-Protector-For-Lenovo-A8-50-A5500-Anti-Scrat...
    Perhaps there's a decent but reasonably cheap option for a different 8" device that I could cut down so that it just covers the actual screen area?

    Hmm, I notice that the cheaper Xtremeguard 3-pack says they have a "slightly grippy feel" which sounds like the nasty ones I've used before on other devices. The more expensive Xtremeguard single protector has to be applied with water, which I don't fancy either, so I'm still looking for suggestions.

  • Screen Protector--Essential or Unnecessary?

    Doing research online on iPhone screen protectors like the Zagg Invisible Shield, some folks say the iPhone's glass screen is not easily scratched and a screen protector is unnecessary. Others say that a screen protector can inhibit the touch-screen performance. Still, I'm a bit of a klutz and a little anxious to leave my pristine screen naked. (Regardless, I will opt for a body case like the iSkin Solo.)
    So what say those of you who have had an iPhone for a while. Screen protector or no screen protector?

    From the sounds of it, I've put my iPhone through a year's worth of wear and tear in only 2 months then...
    I do look after it, i clean it once a week (it's a white 16gb, and i hate the sight of dirt on it :O) but i have dropped it a few times on concrete and it survived without a single mark (im 6' 1", so its quite a big drop for such a small device...)
    I advise precaution for the touch screen, as i know a few people that have quite long and sharp nails. and aslong as you don't put your keys in the same pocket as your phone, the casing should be fine too.
    The only reason i see for a case, is basicly as a grease deterrent. after just 3 days of use, the screen is very dirty and there are a few pockets of dirt in the microphone/speaker/sim card slots/holes.but a cotton bud takes care of that.

  • Could I use a power support screen protector to cover the back of my iPhone

    I bought the ZAGG Invisible shield thinking it was the full body but realized it was only the front. Can I use a power support screen protector to cover the back of my iPhone 3G?

    From my research, the ONLY way to get the back cover of the Zagg shield is to buy the complete package (front and back). The ONLY place I've seen this offered in online at zagg.com.
    I'm only using the front Zagg shield and for the back, I'm using the Richardsolo.com Contour Flip. I've tried several other combinations and for my money, this is the way to go.

  • A truly transparent iPhone 5 screen protector?

    I got an iPhone 5 last week. First thing I did was buy a nice sleek, clear 'shell' case for it and also a screen protector. The case is great as it gives some protection, doesn't cover the controls, doesn't spoil the nice design of the device and makes it feel a bit more assured in your hand. All good ;-) Not so with the screen protector.
    I bought a Belkin Anti-Smudge screen protector, which came as a pack of 2 for $14. I fitted it okay but when I unlocked the phone I was very disappointed with the display. The beautiful iPhone 5 screen was reduced to a grainy, much less clear display. Text also appeared more fuzzy and harder to read. Sort of Retina to rectum!! :-( It was really quite poor. On the other hand I would like some piece of mind that a screen protector can offer. So I'm wondering what the alternative option might be that a truly transparent? I seen lots online but I'm bought off buying until I hear about a particular product - After the Belkin thing it's a case of once bitten twice shy. 'Tru-Clear' my arse! Not impressed with that at all.

    I think you're right, Peter. It's a toss up between screen protection & spoiling the lovely Retina display or taking a chance and seeing things as they should be. I've looked at a few friends and families phones, that have protectors on them, and the display is really degraded by them. I don't think I'll bother with a protector and I've bought an iPhone 5 'sock' to protect the phone when I travel. That will do me for now

  • What is the 2nd sensor on the front, right next to the ear speaker for, and can I cover it up with a screen protector?

    I received a package of screen protectors from Tech Armor today that were advertised to work for the iPhone 5, 5S and 5C.  They don't have a cutout for the second sensor on the front face that is to the left of the ear speaker.
    What is that sensor for?  And can I cover it up with a screen guard without reducing the functionality/effectiveness of the hardware?
    Thanks,
    Pete.

    That's the proximity sensor, senses when you have the phone close to your face, turns off the screen to save battery and prevent accidental input from face touching the screen.
    It's ok to be covered by by a transparent screen protector. I have used screen protectors that cover up that sensor, no problem.

  • Full Screen protector For iPhone 6
