From what I remember white backgrounds amplify the bad stuff.
Very true. Almost like a slight rainbow effect or lots of tiny tiny dots.
Very hard call. I've never used one of their protectors before and part of me really wants to see what the regular crystal clear looks like. I'd definitely rather have a crystal clear screen but the no fingerprints is really nice too.
Finally got my Ultra Fine screen protector and the only complaint I have is that I have bubbles. And I can't seem to get rid of them. Even with a sqeegee. They are not on the screen but all on the edges. Getting very frustrated. Otherwise I think it is a great product.
I got the ultra fine and it's so so. Definitely affects the clarity. It looks like I'm looking through something... which I am. LOL. I love the no fingerprints though. Its a hard call. Right now the clarity thing isn't bothering me too much.
I was a little disappointed in my installation. I'm super picky and did it in the steamy room with the shower on and everything and still managed to get several specs of dust under it. I should have pulled it up and gotten them out but was afraid once I started that I'd just end up getting more under there or fingerprints accidentally. The protector itself is an awesome fit just hard to keep it clean while putting it on on such a large device.
I still have not heard from SGP about the bubbles on my screen and they have not disappated. Well I guess that is money down the drain. I will never ever buy from this company again. This is not right. And this is also false advertising. Bubble free installation my butt. Now I have to go spend more money for another product.
The Ultra Fine SPB film in my opinion is as good as it gets with anti glare film. The speckling is minimal and there is no rainbow effect. I was able to go outside take some pictures and actual see the subject. I would suggest it to anyone looking to decrease glare and of course fingerprinting.
It is as good or better than films supplied by Fujustu for their tablet devices.
Installation notes:
Inspect your film before you install for scratches or imperfections.
Buyer beware! If you have never installed a protective film it is very hard to get a perfect job. There are many tutorials on the web and usually you only get one shot. My son has successfully removed the film, washed with dish soap and water and started from scratch. If you have a clean room at your disposal by all means use it. If the screen has minor bubbles in the field of vision that can't be seen when the device is on, leave it alone. A few bubbles around the perimeter are not a big deal.
The benefits of the film will more than out way the look of a few bubbles.
After all we bought our Xooms for their functionality not looks. The upside, you will be able to pick yours out of a group immediately.
I use a paper towel dampened with water. Works great.
God I hate hawaii.. 7 dollars shipping for that screen protector. lol.
I'll take my chance on ebay guy claims its "anti glare, anti fingerprint" and you get 2.
We'll see if this is crap, I normally don't but screen protectors off ebay because they are cheap! I'll post back when I get it in a couple days

Please post back when you get it and let us know how it goes. This feels like one of those deals too good to be true.
My main goal is to cut finger prints down. But I want as little cutting of the screen image as possible.
Yeah same, we shall see in 2 days. I had a ton of ebay bucks to burn anyways!
