Accessories Skeptical about buying one of those full body kits...

Hey guys, I'm thinking about buying one of those full body case things, such as Ghost Armor for example...

Just one thing I'm nervous about... that liquid solution that comes with it needed to place the protector onto the phone...

Chance of messing up? difficult?

Anyone find a nice body protector worth every dime for the DX?

Money is not an issue, I'm just reading up on all these different body protectors, not sure which one to grab.

Need suggestions please =)
 
I recommend the Invisible Shield by ZAGG. Back when they first started out they recommended a bowl of water with one or two drops of dish liquid. I do find that practice makes perfect. the biggest battle is the one with lint and floaters on the water. I dont find it too difficult and have the shield placed on almost all my electronics.

i would recommend zagg full body. i went to best buy and had them install it for 10 bucks and its been worth every penny. it really is great that's my suggestion :)

Is this a common thing for them to do the installs? Ive never heard of that before. Is there any type of warranty as far as them not getting lint or bubbles under the skin?

I may have to check that out.

I used a full body Zagg kit on my last phone and personally would not do it again. When installing the kit some of the smaller pieces fit poorly and the look after installing it was a series bright shiny areas with smaller areas of the phone's matte finish between them. Some of the pieces on rounded corners and near controls started to get caught at the edges and peel up pretty quickly, so I ended up pulling off everything other than the screen protector and getting a Body Glove case. That worked great for protecting the phone, but did make it much bulkier, something that may be more of an issue with the X.

I have one of these on my phone and it looks fantastic. There's plenty of coupon codes floating around online for you to save some money and not pay full price.

ya I will be definitely be getting one when I get the cash, The argyle case looks alright but its to bulky for my taste and button access sucks. I always keep my phones in Golla pouches that I use as my wallet so this should be more then enough protection.
