Zagg Invisible Shield

So my invisible shield has finally been delivered to me from zagg and I put it on my phone yesterday. I was disappointed to find out that it is ever so slightly too short. The edges all around are easily visible on the screen and it is not a perfect fit. I believe zagg has not mastered the cut for this particular shield since all the others I have used (touch pro, ipod touch, palm pre) were an exact fit. All in all the fitting is not that big of a deal but it is still noticeable and the screen protector that came with the phone was a much better fit. I have also noticed that this screen protector kind of interferes with the touch screens sensitivity. I have to touch things a little bit harder in order for the phone to respond. maybe I need to let it break in for a little longer but so far I am not impressed with this overpriced protector. (I have been very impressed with the invisible shields for my past devices).

That being said, what type of screen protectors is everybody else using, if at all?

I also have a Zagg, and mine is also short. I even had to get mine swapped out, since I had to get a new TP2. And the replacement shield was short also. This is the first time i have used them, and am a bit disappointed. The back fits perfectly though. Also I don't have any issues with the touchscreen, where I have to press harder like the OP reported.

I've tried both the Zagg and the Ghost Armor protectors on my verizon TP2. Both are slightly short.

im using gadget guard and really like it. only have one problem with it and i freely admit its from user error. the touch screen feel is closest ive felt to naked.

there was a thread a few weeks ago, lots of people shared their opinions on various tp2 skins http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=108183

is there another anti fingerprint screen protector besides SGP Steinheil?

the shipping kills it.

Agree on the shipping, but it's worth it IMO.

What is this SGP Steinhall you guys speak of? How is the touch screen responsiveness with it? Does it have the sticky rough feeling like the invisible shield has?
Thanks

That's what I use too, although I use the crystal clear.

Those are much better quality than the zagg cr@p & don't affect the screen sensitivity like the zagg either.

I got Phantom Skins. It's just a tad short but it's really great. The Back goes on seamlessly while the front(not including the screen) takes a little work. When it's on it gives the TP2 a very good look to it. The back cover looks like metallic paint because it makes it sparkle. It's an all around nice skin.
