Hello everyone, I just bought a Invisy shield and I thought I would give it a little review since I liked it enough to suggest it to friends and now you guys!
I had my droid X for about 2 days, and I was loving it naked then tragedy struck!!!!
I noticed a slight scratch on my new baby and my heart sunk. (Don't worry it wasn't a real scratch which I found out later!)
I decided I wasn't going to be a cheap @$$ and get a case on line and have to wait a week, so I hit up Best Buy, where I got my Droid X from and had been suggested to try Zagg skins. Invisible shield is a thin military grade silicon that is super strong and can resist heavy blows from keys and such. Depending on the phone it covers just about every inch of the phone. In the case of the Droid X it covers the screen and the back, which is plenty for this phone.
I had used this type of protection before for my iphone which proved to be more annoying than anything because the corners would come up as they were on rounded ends and contoured, but as you guys already know the Droid X is very flat and boxy so I figured I would give it a try again.
Let me note right now that you should follow the directions very closely as it does make a huge difference in the final product.
It goes on with this liquid they provide and thin silicon that is laser cut to the phones design. The fit was great and everything matched up nicely. Due to how flat the phone is there was no problems getting bubbles out. Took about 20 mins to install because I took my sweet time and so should you.
Let me give you guys some tips:
- make sure you are in a cool place, I sweat when I work with these!
- clean your hands super good
- avoid fans or air blowing around as dust may get on the film and you will get bubbles!
- make sure not to handle the film with dry hands, you will leave prints and hate yourself later (if you run out of the liquid, I'm 90% sure its just water and dish soap, so refill it if you need)
- Take your time and make sure you have it well lubed so you can slid it in place
- Take care to keep the water on the device to a min. I wiped up a lot.
- take the time to work out the bubbles, and don't get cough up on the micro ones they really do go away in time.
I have had this on for a few days and it doesn't look like its going anywhere. Very happy with this and now I don't have to put on a fat tacky case, I can enjoy the phone in it's naked awesomeness!
As you can see in the pics below you can barely tell its even there. The screen cover does not affect the touch at all either.
SUPER highly recommended.
Price: 32$ at Best Buy, if you have a friend that works there you can get them dirt cheap (8$ or less)
