Review - Exim screen protector

Having read the reviews of the screen scratching issue, when my new nano arrived in the post, I ordered an exim screen protector from ebay ($16.00 AUD - do a search for exim). And being a happy nano owner, I thought I'd post a review.
The protector consists of 3 clear vinyl sheets, cut to fit the front, back and scroll wheel of the nano, so essentially the whole thing is covered. The vinyl sheets are a bit stiffer/harder/inflexible than what I expected, they're much like a very thin hard plastic sheet.
Application was a little bit fiddley, but overall fairly easy, provided you make sure no dust gets in contact with the adhesive side of the screen protector. I got 1 small bubble on the back, from a dust speck, but I removed and reapplied the back to remove the bit of dust.
Overall, you can't tell there is a screen protector on your nano. It looks and feels just like there is nothing there. The scroll wheel is just as responsive, and the screen is very clear and bright. The adhesive is also fairly strong, so there's no chance of the protector slipping off. The protector also appears to be made of a very hard material, so there's no chance of scratching.
I highly recommend this product to anyone who doesn't want to hide their nano behind a case. This thing looks great and will do the job.
THe only drawback is that it is fiddly to apply, but once its on, everythings fine. Another drawback is that it picks up fingerprints just as easily as the original nano surface. Also, 16 bucks for a bit of plastic is a bit much. But hey it works, right?
Hope this helps guys.

Hi,
You. I am using them and they are good as far as I can see. The application is a bit tricky. Make sure you get all the dust off the iPod first. If you do get dust under the film just wrap a piece of regular scotch tape around your finger and lift the film up. Remove the dust with the tape and you are good to go.
I put mine into a nano tube after the Exim film and it's nice and scratch free.
This film is not the same as any PDA film I have used. The sides are not covered.

  • Incipio products - stylus, chargers, screen protectors - seeking reviews

    I am considering buying the incipio "Esentials Kit" for my new "new iPad."  It contains a stylus, a USB/30 pin cable, wall charger and car charger, and 2 screen protectors.  All this for the low, low price of $35.
    Most of the products only have one review on Amazon.  They are available at WalMart, too.  I would in particular like to see if anyone has comments about the stylus, screen protectors, and wall charger.
    Thanks in advance!!

  • 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.

    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

    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.

  • Case, Screen Protector, or both

    What are you guys using on your new iphones?  Not sure what I'm going to do yet...  I am iffy on screen protectors because I think they take away the natural feel of the phone... whats the best screen protector out there that actually looks invisible and you can't notice it when touching the phone.

    case for sure...I let mine fall off my knee yesterday LOL like to have freaked out  esp when I realized what it was ...it fell face first... The lip, as small as it is, on case kept screen from making contact with hardwood floor. .. My cousin had a htc aria do the same thing and shattered the glass without the case. Different phones but glass is really glass no matter how you bend it..IMO
    screen protectors??? I guess it depends on where you carry your phone, more then anything. Me in an empty pocket,,,But I will give the bodyguardz dry apply a run. I have found my keys in my pocket before.  I ordered just the front glass protector. Bodyguardz dry apply seem to get good reviews every where I was looking???

  • Best screen protector? Mophie juice pack? for Verizon iPhone

    I just got the Verizon iPhone. Can people suggest
    1) the best screen protector; the one that came with it is weird in that it won't actually attach to the screen at the edges
    2) the juice pack from Mophie (case + built-in additional battery) - does it fit the Verizon iPhone also? Any problems with it?
    thanks,
    Mike

    I'll reply since no one else has - I hate it when I get no replies!
    For screen saver, I like Power Support's crystal film protector. It feels most like the actual touch screen when installed. Their anti-glare, which I have on my iPad, shows less fingerprints but is slightly more draggy to use, Zagg's Invisible Shield is also well-reviewed but it has a slight orange-peel look/feel and I like a screen saver to feel as much as possible like the actual screen in use Screen savers are essential, IMO. When I first got my phone in July, I took a week-long trip to San Diego without installing a screen saver and had a light scratch on my screen on my phone although it was in a case and I was careful with it.
    As for the Mophie Juice Pack, I read on some tech blogs this morning that it's being released for V iPhone so check the Mophie website. As to whether you need a case that provides extra battery life, I'd use the phone without it for a few days first to see how well your battery lasts with your personal usage requirements. I think iPhone 4 has better battery life than most comparable smart phones but none of them are really great.

  • Will i need a case or screen protector for iphone 5

    will i need a case or screen protector for iphone 5? heard the glass is tougher, but still concerned about scratches.

    I think you probably should ask if others ever felt they needed them. I can tell you from my experience that applying a screen protector never worked out for me and I always took them off shortly after applying (bubbles / dust enclosed). But then a former colleague had his applied in an Apple Store and that looked perfect. Fortunately I never had a scratch in a screen as I always took good care (and my iPhones always had a pocket in my trowsers to themselves and didn't need to share it with keys or other scratchy objects ...).
    The case is a completely different story: I think every phone I had so far managed at least once to slide out of my pockets (don't laugh!) while being on a loo and hit the floor from low hight. Due to the covers I had, the phone looked as new as before, just the cases had a slight scratch if at all. Therefore a case would be highly recommended esp as it can safe you iPhone if you drop it from higher hight.
    Reading the first hands-on reviews it appears that the new iPhone 5 is built with materials that are less prone to scratch or crack but my first purchase next Friday will be a case. Not sure if bumper or full case but a case nevertheless.

  • Full Screen protector For iPhone 6

    I've noticed a lot of screen protectors only sit on the front and don't cover the whole front face (I'm thinking because of the curve). Anyone know of a protector that covers the full face?

    Why don't you check this out it say it has rounded edges for the phone might be the one you are looking for, but I'm not sure check out the review

  • ITouch screen protector

    Anyone have any comments on a decent screen protector for iTouch? Not too much available in "reliable" reviews. Appreciate any input from your hands on experience.

    You'll be more likely to get quick and applicable responses if you ask in the iPod touch forums. My guess if that if you just search there for "screen protector", you'll find a number of discussions on the subject already exist.
    Regards.

  • Anti glare/scratch screen protector Ipad Mini 2 - Not compromising clarity

    I'm looking for an anti glare/anti-scratch screen protector for the ipad mini 2 retina. I know Zagg has an awesome one however the clarity is greatly compromised at only 86% clarity. Is there a screen protector that has great clarity along with anti scratch and anti glare, or at the very least minimized the glare from outside or inside lighting.

    Hi. I'm in the market for one too. I've always used power support and they're very good albeit expensive at £30 a pop. I've looked at the Zagg but there have been some not so great reviews. So my advice is go power support, the HD anti glare one is very good but if you don't want to dull the display and it does make a difference then go for the crystal clear. Hope that helps

  • Screen protector recommendations

    hi all
    Just wondering if someone can recommend a screen protector for my z3 compact?
    I've currently go a sticky plastic one but I felt obliged to remove it (temporarily) and now it's caked in dust particles.
    People have suggested i go for a tempered glass one but having seen positive reviews for ultimate shield, I promptly then found some disturbing reports of these screen protectors just self-chipping, self-cracking and/or criminal quality control errors like adhesive on the wrong side, etc.
    Digging has turned up names like:
    ultimate shield
    nillkin
    MFX
    rhino shield
    Thanks for any tips/help/suggestions.
    Regards,
    Gary

    @MyAliasIsGary
    Invisible shield by Zagg it's a good option.

  • Nokia 5800 Screen protector

    Hello all,
    Can anyone tell me good screen protector for Nokia 5800 to avoid finger print smudges? I have googled but all I found are the screens whcih have to be cut to 5800 screen size. I am looking for screen protectors designed for nokia 5800.
    Help appriciated. 
    Thanks

    I recommend those too but they need to be modified as the protector covers the proximity sensor.
    Review taken from the Mobilefun site.
    Not a bad product with the exception that you need to modify the screen protector itself in order for your phone to work correctly. Specifically, the 5800's proximity sensor does not like being covered by anything, even this thin protector. The resultant effect is that when applied, you will not be able to hold/mute calls etc when on a call as the sensor senses the protector and activates the key lock. Similarly, it means that you cannot see who's calling, as the proximity sensor kicks in as soon as the phone starts to ring. I'm not happy at having to modify what is otherwise an expensive protector but other than that, it works well.

  • Have or not Xperia Z3 screen protector(anti-shatter film) out of the box

    Hello as read from earlier review of the device seems that Sony once again put screen protector out of the box!!
    If that is true it is very disappointing and unacceptable since with Xperia Z2 that I own for 5.5 months didn't have it.
    Can anyone from Sony official confirm that?
    And if customers can throw the protector without effecting Sony logo?
    Thanks.

    There is no Anti Shatter Film on this handset, much the same as the Xperia Z2.

  • 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?

    I bought the Crystal film
    (http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=479 E6BBB&fnode=home/shopiphone/iphoneaccessories&nplm=TN612LL/A)
    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.

  • What is a good stylus for an iPad 2 with a screen protector?

    I recently purchased an iPad 2 and I wanted to take notes on it with either the PenUltimate or Noteshelf apps but I have been reading reviews of many different stylus types but none that really talk about how the stylus perform with screen protectors on the iPad. I plan on purchasing either the ZAGG InvisibleShield anti-glare, anti smudge all-in-one  etc or the Targus brand... these screen protectors can be pretty thick sometimes so I was wondering if that will conflict with the rubber tip of a stylus.
    So my question comes to:
    1) Will a stylus work with a  screen protector on the iPad 2
    and
    2) What brands of stylus do you recommend that will?
    I was looking at Alupen and the Wacom Bamboo stylus but like I said.. I am wondering if screen protectors make a difference.
    Thank you to anyone who helps!!

    Has anyone seen the JaJa Pressure Sensitive Stylus? Looks like it's shipping this summer. No wires, no bluetooth with 1024 sensitivity levels... looks amazing. http://www.jajastylus.com/
