screen protector question

[Mr.KLeen]

with the hd2 having a capacitive screen, will it need a screen protector?

[jimmiekain]

my assumption is that you can put one on if you want... a know a few people w/ capacitive screen phones (pre, iphone, omnia etc) some have them some dont... I guess its harder to scratch a glass screen than a plastic on (like the one on my tp2) but you can never be too safe so rather i get the supersonic or the hd2 im gonna get a screen protector for sure!

Have had my HD2 (Euro model) for a couple months now. I've treated it like every other phone I've owned. It's rolled around in my car, been in my pocket with keys and change, tossed in a drawer, etc. The glass screen still looks like new. I had one on my HD2, Invisible Shield from Zagg, but I took it off because I didn't like the decreased responsiveness.

My HD before that absolutely needed one though, it would scratch easily.

That youtube video does seem to answer the question, but im still most likely going to order ghost armor for it once I have the phone and it becomes available. The armor will not only protect the screen but the entire phone and with such a huge screen I imagine it wont take much pressure to possibly crack it.

I use screen protector (cheap one on ebay) and have had no issues, didn t notice any drop in touch - response; i ve just used the 1 in 6 months and its still fine. I have a silicon skin and that helps a lot coz it covers the edges of the protector, so you don t catch it and lift it accidentally. The glass screen is fine, but as you say it probably would be anyway! Works for me!
