I just got mine, took of the protector that came with the phone and applied this one. Looks nice but running my finger on it, this DOES have the rubbery texture feel to it. Not as bad as some other protectors though but it's definitely there.

In my sweet opinion, the stock protectors that come with the phone are the BEST. They may not be scratch resistant or whatever but they are the smoothest of any i've tried. These are probably a close second as far as "smoothness" is concerned.
