best screen protector for razr

thedrizl;[URL="tel:4227709" said:
4227709[/URL]]Had my Razr for over a month and have never had a screen protector on it. Maybe I've been lucky so far, but not a single blemish yet. And the screen is simply amazing, I don't want to have to cover it.
i dont want to put one on... and the gorilla glass helps. i do like a naked screen, however i am a bit rough on my phones and already a week later i have a slight scratch on it so i need to protect it.


maybe ill just stick to zagg invisishield. i get them half price anyways so why not. i was just looking for something good without the orange peel effect. that and they tend to be more prone to smudging and needing cleaning more often than naked glass.

I've used both the ZAGG and SGP screen protectors on my RAZR. Here are my opinions:
- ZAGG: Unscratchable, but makes the RAZR's display very grainy, IMO. Does not smudge much. The protector has the usual ZAGG "rubbery" feel -- I don't mind it, but some people might. The protector covers just about every inch of the RAZR's front (other than the openings for the camera, microphone, and LED indicator). Installation can be tricky if you haven't done a ZAGG screen protector before. ZAGG only includes 1 screen protector in the package.
- SGP (Ultra Crystal): Smudges easily, and also does show scratches over time. But it feels like it isn't even there, and it does not detract from the RAZR's beautiful display at all. The protector covers probably 90-95% of the RAZR's front (there will be small unprotected areas of the outer bezel on the top/bottom/left/right). Installation was a snap -- I got it right the first time. SGP includes 2 screen protectors in the package.

For what it's worth, I like the clarity, feel, and ease of installation of the SGP, but prefer the durability of the ZAGG. So you can decide which attributes are most important to you.

For anybody doing their first install of a screen protector, I recommend spending some time with YouTube, watching videos of other people's installations.

There's a third option: Skinpea anti-ripple screen protectors

I've also tried the brands above and I agree wholly.

The only reason I switched brands (from Zagg to Skinpea) is because I just could not stand the ugly reflection on Zagg's skin. It has a weird wave-like rippling effect (http://www.theipadguide.com/images/content/review-invisibleshield10.jpg). I'm so glad I found a brand that also thinks this is ugly.. and not really INVISIBLE lol

The best screen protector, IMHO, is being careful in the first place. I am an auto mechanic by trade and have grit and grease on my fingers all the time. i just wipe 'em off before I do anything with my phone. an occasional cleanup with a rag soaked lightly in glass cleaner is all it takes to remove anything else.I really dislike the screen protectors that I have used, since they trap grease and scratch way easier than gorilla glass, plus, they seem to dull the response to touch when using the touch screen for almost anything. I prefer naked.
