Universal Screen Protectors...

Just an FYI. While I am with everyone still waiting for accessories, I put universal screen protectors on my nano, back and front. The semi sticky applicant didn't leave any residue, but took some of the color out of the apple logo and FCC logos on the back. Just beware.

"If you ask me it is like dressing up a dying man in a
vareity of Mackintoshes-excuse the pun- I mean the the Irish jackets-thats what it amts to when you put a sheath on a Nano!"
hmmm wierd - I've come accross a few of your posts, they are all abit strange...

  • What is the best privacy screen protector for the MacBook Air?

    I am looking for a privacy screen protector for my 13" MacBook Air that will interfere the least amount possible with image clarity and such. I work in a busy university medical center as an intern (so sadly I do not have my own office) and would like to be able to use my MacBook while sitting somewhat close to other people. Privacy is an issue because the information I deal with is protected by HIPAA and FERPA. What are the best privacy screen protectors out there, as far as quality and performance go?

    Best there is, is the 3M privacy screen

    3M has the entire marked cornered in quality exotic plastic films and screens.

    OK. Let me try AGAIN.
    I have no special ownership of the truth and may be wrong about this. However, I'm simply sharing my opinion that everything I've seen and read suggests that plastic screen protectors for the iPhone are a racket.
    For one, you are putting something on a beautiful screen that makes it less beautiful. And why are you doing this? Presumably to protect it. The equation is make it less beautiful for the sake of added protection to keep it more beautiful but for when? For those brief moments when you take one protector off and put on another? But the protectors themselves are universally weaker than the screen itself so I wonder how protective they really are. How much is the compromised surface worth the "protection" (not to mention cost)? The screen is hard glass, the protectors are weak plastic. The end result is you have an iPhone with a scratchable plastic protector on it that makes it uglier instead of a clean flat hard beautiful glass surface.
    It just makes no sense to me. Except that coming from a tradition of plastic screens on previous devices, perhaps there is a "legacy urge" to get a screen protector. Or maybe people just like putting plastic sheets on their glass iPhone.
    Here's my experience. I have an iPhone and no plastic screen protector. I don't dote over the iPhone. I fling it around and stick it into various pockets. It has no scratches. I also enjoy the naked glass screen with no oogy plastic covering like grandma's slipcover over her couch that makes your thighs squeak whenever you sit on it.
    If after years of use I get a scratch on the glass screen, that's less bad than years of plastic protectors and years of scratched use because the plastic protectors will of course get scratched multiple times. They're plastic.
    At the same time, figure in an aggressive third party market that exploits opportunities to sell accessories - needed and un-needed. So if you discount the marketing and "legacy urge," why do I need this thing???
    The Crystal Support screen protector is great...and it's fairly cheap as well. Unlike others that "get off" on trying to beat people down with their opinions...I'll simple tell you that it works for me. You might like to try it...then again...what do I know? I'm not gunna shove what works for me down your throat like others on this board.
    DD
    If that makes you happy, great! I'm not shoving my opinion down anyone's throat, only sharing an opinion that may differ from yours. Let's say, for example, the question was "now that I've gotten an iphone, what kind of instant mashed potatoes should I smear all over it to protect it?" I would have the same response. I just don't get the appeal, although maybe there are people out there who feel more comfortable smearing instant mashed potatoes all over their phones.
    The "Emperor's wearing no clothes" was only one person's opinion too, you know...

  • Need a screen protector with Musemee Notier stylus?

    I have an Ipad Air 2 which I love, and am looking for the right app/stylus combination to take notes.  Lots of apps are good -- the issue is the stylus.  I've tried several and just got the Musemee Notier which is spectacular.  But the screen protector I purchased as a safeguard did not apply well and I am going to return it.
    Does anyonen know if  I need aa screen protector with a high precision stylus such as the Musemee Notier?
    Thanks!

  • I have this weird stain in my ipad screen and screen protector that has formed around a crack in the glass.

    Some time ago my ipad 4 screen slowly began forming a long hairline crack at one corner and near the home button for some reason, perhaps daily rough and tumble taking it to class and whatnot.  The crack is not very noticeable so I have delayed getting the screen repaired. 
    I used to have a Boxwave Cleartouch Ultra screen protector on, and as directed, would peel it off now and then to give it a good wash(it's one of those reusable ones with adhesive on the edges only and yes they are meant to be washed now and then).  One day after doing this, I noticed a strange puddle of tiny round stains clustering near the crack.  I didn't think much of it until I equipped my ipad with a stronger ipad case with it's own screen protector.  The stain seemed to cling onto the Boxwave screen protector even after cleaning.  Now with a new screen protector the stains around the crack were these tiny rainbowy areas around the crack that sat on top of the glass and were visible as just some kind of smudge when the screen was turned off.  I recently discovered the stain has transferred to my new screen protector when I remove it and is visible when you look at it at an angle when removed from the ipad. Not even dish soap seems to get rid of it. 
    I am wondering what this stain could be, I mean there is no liquid pooling out of the digitizer or anything.  One idea I have is that maybe some adhesive from the first screen protector got loose after washing and pooled into the crack and thats why they have a smudgy appearance that they got when wiping the screen dry.  There are no liquid stains under the crack however.  Another thing I thought of was maybe something to do with oleophobic coating and the crack itself.  I am also wondering how  to get rod of it safety. 

    You are welcome.

  • I am having the hardest time with the screen protectors! HELP ME|!

    So I bought the Anti-Glare screen protector from the Apple Store fir my iPhone. The first time I out it on, it looked good, but when I really looked at it, it was crooked around the Home button which looked really stupid, so I took it off with some tape and repositioned the protector, but yet again, can not get it straight, but worse of all, because my house is filled with flying dust, the back of the protector is filled with dust and lint and smudges, so now I cannot use the first one, so i open the other and what happens? THE SAME THING!!! So I have 2 questions.
    1. What am I doing wrong, what is the best way to put these on? Should I take the protector off just a bit and place it on the phone and then let it fall into place? Or take it off completely and then place it and hope I get it straight the first time?
    2. I am going to buy some new protectors (Same brand and everything), but I am wondering, would the Apple store give me an exchange despite the fact I did this to the protectors? Has anyone done that before?
    Thanks!

    It took me THREE OF THE THINGS before I get one of them on -- luckily, once on, it has never had to come off, and that has been since July.
    I ended up putting a small piece of scotch tape at the bottom right corner, which helps you lift it up and reposition without having to lift it too far that desk lint and things get on it again.
    I actually got so fed up after the first two, when I went back to get the second package of them (since there are only two of them per pack) that the "Genius" assisting me said he was a pro and would put it on for me. After the "Genius" had himself used up two of the protectors and it still looked awful, he just gave me another pack and wished me well.
    The third one was the charm though, and it has worked perfectly ever since.

  • Should I use a screen protector for an iPhone 6 Plus?

    I just bought an iPhone 6 Plus and can't decide if I want/need a screen protector on it. I take great care of my phones and do not set it carelessly down on any surface.

    Yes.
    We were going without for the first time, and after only 2 weekes,  my wife just showed me a hairline scratch on hers.  She says it could not possibly have happened, but it did.
    I just ordered screen protectors for both of ours.

  • My new iPod touch is getting really warm while I use it. Is it normal? I mean, I have silicone cover, maybe it's the reason for iPod being so HOT?... How do you think, is it too important to have a cover on the iPod? How about screen protector? :S

  • 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.

  • Help Find Screen Protector (In Store Pl0x)

    Hi, it's me again. I'm having trouble finding a screen protector. I got one at the apple store with the iPod Touch 4G, but it was for the 2G version, and didn't have the hole for the camera and didn't fit right. My sister got me one at wal-mart today, for iPod touch 4G, but it doesn't have a hole for camera, and it's the matte one.
    My friend said the matte ones suck, they make the image quality horrible. So, I put it on, like an idiot, and yes, I hate it, and it makes it look bad. He said get the glossy screen protector. I can't find a glossy one for 4G, anyone know of one? Also, does it have a hole in it for the camera? This current one makes it all blurry without the hole .

    Try Best Buy and Amazon. They have several brands.
    I haven't found one that sticks completely to the screen, although I've followed the instructions including the cleaning process.
    I'm looking for a wrap around case. The only ones I can find have a belt clip which makes it too bulky for my purse. I've opted for the shell type case that just covers the back and edges and also use the screen protector that keeps coming undone at the edges. And they do show lots of fingerprints.

  • What kind of screen protector should I use for my iPhone 6? Should I use one?

    I'm looking for a screen protector for my brand new baby. To my dismay, it's hard to find one that "fits" because of the curved edges. I have ocd, not to mention that what isn't covered by a screen protector are usually crucial areas. Can anyone recommend anything? I always use a screen protector because I'm super paranoid. I throw my phone in my purse a lot where I feel like it will come in contact with one too many things that can scratch it. I don't have a ton of money to spend, sorry I'm a college student. Also, I don't like glass protectors. If I need one I'm looking for a film. Thanks in advance from a new iPhone 6 parent!

    I have an iPhone 6 Plus but I thought I would try to help you out!! I use the Zagg Glass Invisible shield and I must say at first I loved it! It feels smooth and accepts input super well! It doesn't, however, go all the way to the edge of the screen which is weird, I agree. I've only had it for about a month now and its already chipped on the top edge by the speaker and its super annoying!! They will replace it for free but I'm not sure that I want another one that chipped so easily.
    I've heard great things about the iloome screen mate and it goes all the way to the edge of the screen and covers the curved part. I know you said you don't like glass protectors but those are the best and if you get a good one you pretty much only need to replace it once a year so you pay a bit more up front but it lasts a lot better than just film ones. Hope that helps!!!!!

  • Degeneration of bulit-in HP netbook screen protectors

    I've been through about a dozen HP netbooks, and while I have found them very good I have come across a very troublesome development in many of the newer ones.
    At some point HP deceded to extend the bezel into a transparent screen protector. This is a good move: a $15 part protecting a $45 part at a cost of pennies to the manufacturer. But there are two problems with the way the scheme was implemented.
    First, it seems that defective clear plastic was used. In many of the 200 Series line I have seen spotting develop. The spots are internal and cannot be wiped off from either side.
    It gets worse, however. Some of the bezels are not made to be replaceable. On my 210-3060 the lid, screen and bezel are sold only as a complete assembly, to the unreal tune of $360. Effectively, if you have a bad enough defect on the screen protector, the unit has zero resale value. And the bezel is made so flimsily that any attempt to remove it cracks it, in the hands of all but the most experienced techs. For most people, this means you are stuck.
    I currently have maybe five HP netbooks whose value has been severely compromised by materials failure and some inexplicable design decisions by HP. And in each case it looks like I'm left holding the bag, and that adds up. This is not a terribly good thing, and has already inhibited me from further purchasing of HP netbooks. Of course, everything is out of warranty, which is very convenient for some.

    I've dissassembled probably a hundred of these things. I'm not sure what you mean by an inferior warranty, mine say one year, and the expectation of quality materials is reasonable. Taking a macro marketing view toward netbooks in general is going to be little comfort to those who use and like them, and who bought them with a reasonable expectation of durability. 
    The manual you cited refers to a typical situation where the bezel is removable in the standard way of unscrewing and prying off. But that is not the case with the 210-3060NR, which has no screws and, according to HP tech support, is not designed to be taken off. It's a firm snap-in design, which combined with its flimsyness makes that a neat trick indeed. Try to find one of those bezels of the unitary type in good shape on ebay and you'll see it's no easy task. Most of them have been cracked while being taken off. And finding a clear HP screen protector/bezel for any netbook model is almost as difficult, in my experience..

  • I have the same case with you an iPad Air in dead pixel or speckle silver dust on screen.  It is been 3 months I bought in Avant Abenson in Greenbelt Makati Philippines. Today I decided to change my screen protector film but the speckle dust on the screen

    Speckles dust on the screen and it cannot be removed today when I decided to change the screen protector film and noticed is not my fault it is a factory defect on screen it is either dead pixel or speckle dust on screen they are so many said and experience I have read.  So I need the replacement a new one for that dismayed screen on my iPad Air. I bought this 3 months ago in Avant Abenson at Greenbelt Makati Philippines.  I need the replacement for tomorrow I will go to the store I bought.  I love apple products but they need to replace and make go round to improve some defects and cannot be more escalate with this issue of the many of patronizing your products.  It is sometimes irritating to the eyes and seen dirt on the screen.  Thank you apple customer service to bringing up my complaints and a replacement for tomorrow's to inform the store I bought and advise them here in the Philippines to facilitate in regards to this matter. 

    I wanted to buy an ipad air to replace my ipad 2 but the one I wanted was (luckily) sold out.
    Yesterday I tested the air from a collegue and I noticed the screen was SUBSTANTIALLY less sensitive than the screen of my ipad 2 when using my stylus.
    I use Stylus R US especially for I annotate and with the air this did not work well at all... Half of the time there was no contact registered so underying certain parts of the text was a disaster...
    Just working with the finger all whent OK... Just fear that another app I use a lot (notes +) will have same problem.
    On the Ipad 4 also retina all goes *** smooth as on my ipad 2...
    Is this a fault of a specific ipad air series? Or is this normal?? If it is I think this is truelly a huge flaw and I cannot see how not manny people using the ipad for notetaking etc did not notice this...

  • Should I use a Screen Protector with Otterbox Defender or Griffin Survivor?

    Do you have the shield on the front and back?  I read they do not fit in the Otterbox with both.  I would bet one side may fit.  I think if you use a thin one like the Verizon site has (PureGear Display Protectors) on the front I bet it will fit.  I have the Survivor case and have not head a chance to try the shield with it.  I got the phone, and first threw it in that case.  I know what to get a shield on it if possible.  Please let me know if it fits.
