Screen protector for outdoor sunlight viewing

So, we all know that there are a wide variety of screen protectors out there. I have an invisibleSHIELD on my XV6800 right now and I love it. I've seen many others out there, like the one that comes in the box from HTC, Pocket Solutions sells an Hi-Def screen protector (http://www.thepocketsolution.com/PSI...+cover%29.html), and there are a ton of other ones out there.

However! None of them make our screens any easier to view in direct sunlight. So, does anyone know of any screen protector/accessory that makes the screen not so impossible to read outdoors?

-Randy

Re: Screen protector for outdoor sunlight viewing

Pocket Solutions Hi-Def screen protector's suck!!! They are square and only protect the visible screen part. I have also used brando ultra clear's they are better than P.S. but the fit still sucks

This will be my next purchase

At 12 bucks a pop they better make my screen look like a vga

Re: Screen protector for outdoor sunlight viewing

Been using the ClearTouch Anti-Glare since day one on my Mogul. Had used them on all my Treos as well and really think they are the best for viewing in the sunlight. The Crystal ones are good and don't even look like you have a protector on it, but they don't work as well outdoors and they attract fingerprints like crazy. The anti-glare don't hold fingerprints or dust as much. $12 is kind of pricey, but I've gotten over a year out of them so that's only about $1/month.

I just ordered 3 of these base on YOUR recommendation. I started a thread on pdaphonehome.com asking for advice on getting an antiglare protector, and got NO responses! Anyway, thanks for your recommendation. I have used their crystal covers for about 5 years (on different devices of course) but never tried the antiglare type.

Thanks again!

Re: Screen protector for outdoor sunlight viewing

I have been buying PSP screen protectors. Cutting them to fit the screen. Works pretty well for me. The damn glare from sun still sucks tho.

I've used the crystal version as well. The anti-glare version isn't quite as crisp as the crystal but it does help a lot with glare, and I would get a rainbow effect from the crystal version when using them while I was wearing polarized sunglasses that I don't get from the anti-glares. Hope they work out well for you.
