Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

I sort of prefer ghost armor like I use on my touch pro. I hate slippery screens. http://www.ghost-armor.com/htc/evo4g.../prod_408.html

Its not at all tacky and its completely transparent. They also have a lifetime guarantee. The same armor has been on 3 different TP's now without any issues. Still works great.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

Probably because they don't even have a skin for the EVO yet. Someone posted on HoFo that Best Skins Ever was not going to produce the skin until they had enough interest in it. The thread was quickly closed.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

im just trying to figure out what to get myself, my palm pre had the maximum coverage invisible shield but i didnt like that the phone looked laminated and the screen was kinda rubbery, thats when my touch pro 2 just has a clear plastic smooth screen protector i got from the mall, same as stock but thicker and more adhesive. i def want full coverage for the evo, i have a 50% discount for the zagg maximum coverage shield i tried it and it worked (btw you can easily get 30% off if you just subscribe to their weekly ipad contest they email you 30% off right away) but i was looking into ghost armor its pretty cheap now like 15 bucks but what i really want is that smooth non rubbery feel, does anyone know how ghost armor feels and will it cover the sides like the invisible shield does, thanks guys!

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

To whoever asked, the front facing camera is flush with the rest

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

Right, its only a small circle like the size of well this --> O

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

right, then why would you need the skin to have a cut out for it? all that would do for me is make it next to impossible to line up perfectly when putting on.

they wait till they get a evo in hand and then make it so it will be a month or so till they carry one probably.

that seems to be more of the "most expensive skins ever". same product, just costs more money.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

Hell yeah!! :D

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

i tried zagg on my nexus, their screen protectors are too industrial imo.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

The ghost armor has a rubbery feel but I grew to like it and its definitely durable. I've heard they'll replace the protector if its damaged no questions asked.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

does ghost armor feel any less rubbery than the zagg shields...i can get a zagg full shield for 12.50 but hate that rubbery feel....any suggestions for how to do full body coverage and at least have the screen be smooth and totally clear like the stock one that comes with the tp2

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

I'm pretty sure you'll have to change brands. The clarivue one seems better and not so rubbery. I actually liked the durability of zagg on my TP: it took a key, it didnt break but the key left a mark that looked like a 'dent', I removed it and the screen had no marks on it whatsoever. But yes, I had a problem with the rubber-like feel.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

I can't comment on the zagg, never tried it. The ghost armor is clear as can be once it dries. I compared it to the stock protector on my mom's TP and hers feels slippery to me. The ghost armor isn't at all tacky, my finger slides right across it, its just not slick. Each to his own I guess. I only got the screen protector, not the whole body kit. Didn't really see the point in the body kit.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

Yes, but why would you want a layer of film over a camera lens? You realize nothing will look as good through the camera?

I myself am going to go with Clairvue. From everything I've been reading it's exactly what most people are looking for in both toughness, smoothness, and clearness.

I may consider someone else's full body kit also for the rest of it, but refuse to have any sort of sticky feeling on my display.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

yea sounds good but the clarivue is only for the screen right not the whole phone

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

so by tacky do you mean its got that rubbery kinda sticky feel? the stock screen protector that comes with it completely smooth just a layer of plastic, i want that around the whole phone preferably without that shiny look zagg kinda has

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

No, its not tacky at all, my finger slides across it easily. Its just not slippery like the cheap plastic one that comes with the phone. You'll notice it more with the stylus than your finger. When I used my mom's phone with her stylus I found the stylus kept sliding away from what i was trying to hit cause it was so slick. With my phone that wasn't an issue. Its just a personal preference thing. I'm sure some people won't like it and some will love it. There's reviews on their site I think.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

WARNING: Not for the faint of heart. HERE is a video of a guy who takes a key, scissors and a razor to his HD2 screen and didn't show any scratches.

I could hardly watch doing stuff like that on purpose. The thread I found it in over at the XDA dev forums (LINK) had people responding saying theirs did scratch, so I would rather be safe than sorry on this phone.

I have no doubt that the screen on this phone is more scratch resistant than my Touch Pro 2 plastic screen, but I am not going to risk it. It would bug me every time I looked at it if there was a scratch on the screen.

i read someone mention the glass screen may not need a protector .. im gonna to maybe prevent it from breaking in event it falls to the ground which im hopin not to ... how are the full kits as far as looks & putting them on .. fitments on previous phones ? also ppl mention the rainbow banding issue alot of our tp1s & tp2s experienced was due to screen protectors. are these phones facing same possibilities if indeed that is a cause ?

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

Glass screens are very resistant to scratches. I know several people with really beat up iphones with screens that are unscratched. However, it doesn't mean it can't happen as I've seen some with scratches all over. I use a protector on my ipod touch and will use one on my evo. They are cheap and they are barely noticeable. As for body protection most likely. Bestskinsever are cheap enough to replace once or twice a year, which is how long they seem to last from my past experience.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

I think I'm going to skip on the screen protector as I think the glass will be fine and just drop it in this case:

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

Nice cases, but ships on 6/21.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

Damn. I didn't notice that. I guess I'll just have to be really careful with it for a few weeks or maybe I'll get a silicone one until that one is available.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

While these new phones do have very scratch resistant glass on them they are not scratch proof. Any sand, rock, or glass bead media can and will scratch the screens. Skin protectors are the next best thing to a naked phone since you preserve the look and feel of the phone without adding the bulk of a large case.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

those are minimum speeds and someone tested a variety and found out that they are restricted more by the phones hardware than the speed of the card.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

and where did y'all see that it's a glass screen? i think that would be a first for htc on sprint.
is that a capacitive screen thing?

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

someone posted something about the screen being "gorilla glass"

Gorilla Glass

but not having one, i cannot confirm. it is glass though..maybe not gorilla.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

i've heard of that. supposed to be good stuff. I hope so, maybe the htc screen problems will be behind them using that.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

apparently the incredible is gorilla glass, so hopefully the evo is too:
Dear Keegan, I can understand the interest in the knowledge of the HTC Incredible Screen. The screen display is actually an Opaque Aluminum-Silicone Base. It is called Gorilla Glass, which is impervious to the very real threats of key scratching and localized pressure. Gorilla Glass is an unscratchable, unshatterable material used as a protective window for your mobile phone.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

Is gorilla glass really unscratchable? Even to sand and whatnot? I think the Droid has gorilla glass as well.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

Ok so i got my screens from zagg and im noticing something, no hole for the front facing camera :(

Gonna hit them up and see what they say. I think they are just selling the hd2 screen protector as the evo

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

wow .. i think this thread was suppose to make it easier on deciding on a screen protector but dam there are too many choices ... i want one that is not like running finger on the inside of an orange peel .. can someone suggest one ... i think the zagg and others that offer the full body are more of the sticky feeling type as mentioned above...
i wonder how these would be and nice to have a full size mirror

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

Boxwave & Brando will offer you the smoothest u seek. I like them both but they always seems to peel at the corner. This time around I'm going with Steinheil. I've heard nothing but good things about this company from Incredible users. Unfortunately none of which I mention are available yet...

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

If you care about seeing your phone outdoors than don't get this. I had one on my diamond for the longest time just because I got a bundle for cheap on ebay. The mirror was nice to have (although people were always asking to borrow my phone for a mirror) but it was impossible to see anything outdoors unless I was under shade and cupping the screen with my hands.

As for a regular clear screen protector, I'll probably just go with the same old ebay ones that are dirt cheap (couple bucks for a pack of 3 or so). They are smooth and they stick fairly well. They last pretty long and for the price you can regularly swap them out. I got a clarivue one once and couldn't tell the difference from the ones I got on ebay for the same device. There are "higher" end ones out there but it's hard to justify the purchase when you can get about a dozen for the same price which will probably outlast your device.

Re: EVO Screen Protectors Thread
 

agreed,,,had it on the tp2..was COOL, but not practical. It got annoying.:protest:
