Accessories EVO Screen Protectors Thread

Well my friend just put on mine and it came out pretty good. Since there's 2 in a pack he's going to put the anti-glare one so we can see the difference. But my seidio ones didn't have a cut out for the camera whole he said when he looked at it and took it off. The Clarivue one is much better.

Anti-glare has a different texture and makes the display a little fuzzier. If you have a matte LCD computer monitor..touch it..that's what the anti-glare feels like.

I prefer the anti-glare because it helps with smudges (I have a natural oily face), and it makes browsing a lot easier since it's smoother.

Right now I have the Bodyguardz full protection, and im loving it. Installation was super smooth and turned out great. The screen feels like glass only smoother if possible

. Im loving bodyguardz and I would recommend it. Static cling screens are alot easier to put on though

Hey guys, just letting you know that I've done a review of the Seidio Ultimate Screen Guard here http://androidforums.com/htc-evo-4g...e-screen-guard-htc-evo-4g-pictures-video.html

Has anyone used a screen protector for the camera lens yet?

Rose4uKy · Jun 6, 2010

My friend said the seidio one covered the front camera. I didn't notice it he had already taken it off and thrown it away. I like the Calrivue ones but when he was putting my Seidio case back on it did start to lift in the corner a little bit but he fixed it. I'm hardly ever going to take that case off. But he put the anti glare on his and I didn't like it. He said he was taking it off he didn't like it neither. It felt different when scrolling which he kind of liked at 1st. But then we opened up Google on the browser and mine was brighter and more clear. His looked kind of grainy and didn't look as good. Now maybe if we weren't doing a side by side comparison we may not have noticed. But I am just leaving my clear on and I will just use the cloth that came with to wipe off my screen.

Another one I've not seen commend on: Skinmoni - Amazon.com: Skinomi TechSkin - Invisible Screen Protector Shield for HTC EVO 4G + LIFETIME

Smooth surface, covers entire front (not just screen) and went on very easy. Seems quite tough (about five days of use... yes, I got my EVO early).

Just installed my Clarivue Ultra-Clear screen protector. This will definitely do until the SGP Steinheil Protectors are released.

I just put on my Boxwave Crystal Clear screen protector. It fits very nicely and gives an almost perfect mirror reflection, when the screen is off. If it wasn't for the top of the protector coming up short for the sensors, I wouldn't know it was there. I rate this 9.8 out of 10.

Also, the touch accuracy has improved over the cheap screen I was using from Radio Shack. I can now touch links on web pages without zooming in and my typing has improved.

hey I got a zagg shied installed at BB last week and its starting to peel off at the right bottom corner...will they replace it with a new one for me or will I have to buy a new one myself?

I'm not entirely sure about Best Buy, but I know for sure Zagg will replace it no questions asked. You just gotta spend a few bucks for processing or something, and send your old screen back to them (if I remember correctly).

fireburster · Jun 14, 2010

I just got my skinomi one in today. I just got it on. Doesnt cover the camera and i think its a little smaller then the entire screen. I remember my wifes zagg covering the entire moment. I dont like her zagg though still rubbery after 5 months. Waiting for it to dry now, was going to use the hair dryer but wife took it with her out of town. Guess i dry the old fashion way. Will report back when i get back from vaca.

dohmai · Jun 15, 2010

finally got my clarivue antiglare after a looong mail (they just mail it in a regular envelope too.. no idea what the handling time is all about

anyway.. went on easy.. it's a little shorter than full due to the cutouts at the top.. i put it flush with bottom and the top is noticably uncovered oh well

i like the feel more than zagg.. smoother but def. 'feels' like it's there

the antiglare actually works a bit .. but also makes screen not as crisp

debating keeping it on honestly

Just put the Seidio clear on and it is working great with the Platinum case from BB. I have not used a static screen protector since my BB8700 (only InvisShield or the like since) so To me the quality is great, but I do not know how far the screen protector tech has advanced since.

As far as I can tell it is pretty nice. Can't tell it's even on there. It definitely is smaller than the screen by a few mm, but with the hardcase I would actually prefer that than to have it stick over and pop up the protector and filling it up with dust every time I take off the case when I do battery swaps.

Rose4uKy · Jun 15, 2010

I guess I'll get another pack of Calrivue and try putting one on with my seidio case on. I bought a pack at the Sprint store today but they don't cover the whole front of the phone just the main screen not the top and bottom so there going back. The clarivue one I have on now lift in the corner when I take my seidio case off. So I thought I would try the sprint one till I could get more of something else. But I didn't realize the Sprint one didn't cover the whole phone.

I had the sedio clear and it covers the front camera doesn't it? That's what my friend said when he was taking mine off. I didn't notice. So your case comes off and on easy without the protector lifting. Mine lifts with the seidio case and the clarivue protector. I'm going to try another one with leaving the case on while it gets applied.

Yup just tried to slide it on and off and the protector seems to be staying put. and it does cover everything including the front cam.

I installed the Clarivue (clear) yesterday and it came out great! It felt a little sticky/rubbery at first touch but after playing with it a bit that seems to have worn off. Texture is now almost identical to the screen.

ChenGitWah · Jun 15, 2010

Ordered a Seidio Crystal Clear 2 Pack on Wednesday that just came in today. Did the bathroom trick and I must say that I am very impressed so far. No air bubbles and the texture feels exactly like the screen. I went around the house and nobody could tell that I had a screen protector on!

I definitely recommend these if you want easy-to-apply screen protectors. However, that being said, once Stenheil releases their protectors, I'll probably switch. Until then, the Seidio Crystal Clear looks like a very nice substitute.

I went from Zagg to Clarivue, so the Clarivue feels amazing compared to that. I love it.

I've been using a ghost armor screen protector for the past week and I love it!

Looking at it, doesn't look like anything is there and reduces finger printing a good bit. I'll some pictures tomorrow if anyone wants me to.

Whats a good anti-glare protector, and will it have blur if it is anti-glare?

Rose4uKy · Jun 17, 2010

Well Seidio said I need to use there's if I am using there case so it won't lift my protector when taking the case on and off. I bought a 2 pack of Seidio and don't know what I did with my other one. But he said having the camera covered shouldn't affect it working the same. Is the sensor covered up too I don't remember? Maybe I should look for mine and try it again. My Clarivue is still on now and it's fine. Just a little messed up spot in the bottom right corner from it lifting. I kind of wanted to try the steinheil too but I don't know if I will. I do like my seidio case and there coming out with the car dock soon that holds the phone with the case on and it's suppose to also do the car home stuff so I may just get there car dock. I'll see who's comes out 1st.

Could someone tell me the best way to protect my EVO while my stupid Clarivue gets here? It's been a solid 11 business days since placing my order and they're telling me to wait some more.

Should I just wear basketball shorts and put it in those pockets? Or a plastic bag or what?

Oh, I'm a guy, so no purse

When i had my touch pro, i went to an oakley outlet store and asked if i could buy one of the silk bags that come with there sunglasses. They pulled out a BIG plastic tub from behind the counter and gave me like 5 or 6 for free. The one i use sometimes still with a protector on my evo is a black one. Hope that helps.

johnblaze · Jun 22, 2010

I'm waiting on delivery of an amzer mirror finish screen protector. I noticed people would take notice of the big screen and if they're close to you the will try to see what you're looking at. The mirror finish is also a bit of a privacy guard as well...when viewed from an angle one can't see any of the actual screen, just the reflection. I figure this will come in handy since I ride a subway to work every day....

w00t clarivue just came.. 4 days .. nice!
