Does the TP2 really need a screen protector?

What has scratched it up that much?

[Oditius]

I had the TP1 for a year, no screen protector, not a scratch on it. But the screen on the TP2 doesn't feel the same so I put on the screen protector and keep it on.

Thanks everyone, this has been really helpful.

I don't use the stylus at all, but I often stick the phone in my pocket with other items. Guess I'll need to consider whether or not I'm going to resell it.

Yeah the screen is so soft it will scratch from just the stylus, was the same way with my diamond.

Before that I never used protectors and never had problems on 6700 6800 or touch but day number 1 with my Diamond I had stylus scratches wtf, the thing they give you to use on your screen scratches it..once again wtf???

The screens of those previous phones weren't as bright and so the protectors were very noticeable to me, the TP2 is so bright I can't tell I have one on, others can't tell either.

I like the stock one that came with it best, least noticeable and can't feel it with the stylus either, you can get ones just like the sprint stock ones at any ATT store 3 for $10, the are the ones for the ATT gsmTP2 (tilt 2, I think, may be wrong)

But from someone who used to hate to use them, on the TP2 it's a must.

try Steinheil SGP . Easiest to put on. I have had same protector on my phone for months no peeling. I personally use the matte finish with antifingerprint , but that's my choice. You may want the clear crystal look. Either way, these protectors are awesome, fit well, and they go on without having to do all the steam tricks and water and dish liquid tricks, Very easy. here's a link http://www.sgpstore.com/index.php/cPath/21_33

these protectors are not that expensive9mid range ) and out of about 5 different ones I tried, they are by far the easiest and best. I am sure if you search on here you will find lots of folks recommend them

I'll keep these in mind. I recently bought the ATT Tilt2 screen protectors for my Sprint TP2 and am extremely pleased. I can hardly tell there's a protector on it. It was very easy to apply, but may I was just lucky this time. I'll use the next 2 in the pack as needed, but after that, I might try the ones you suggest--perhaps the ones that claim to show fewer fingerprints.

just remember as I said earlier the antifingerprint has a matte finish which obviously is not the same as the crystal clear finish ( that is also available) they are both great protectors, so it really just comes down to a preference. I prefer not to have to wipe fingerprints off after every use. Also , one note, many of the screen protectors for the TP2 are cut exactly to the very edge of the screen. You would think this is good , but in reality when you put it on they sometimes come right to the very edge of the screen and will eventually get caught on something and try to peel up. after that they are useless. I had this happen a few times with other protectors after having placed them on perfectly . It was very irritating . I found out that by using this sweet little case http://cgi.ebay.com/Soft-Skin-Silico...item19b98cc3e8

there is no problem. BTW, this is by far the best fitting case I and many others have found out there, Takes 2 weeks from China or a few days from Boxwave (for a few more bucks)
I have had mine for many months along with the same screen protector and my phone looks 100 percent new .

well dude my friend dropped his TP2 and it slid down his driveway and let's just say it looks like he tried taking 80 grit sandpaper and giving his phones screen some prep work for a paintjob hahaha... Stock Screen Protector FTW..!!
