I took a shower this morning. Opened my front door to find the package. Opened it up. Went back into semi steamy bathroom and applied the screen protector. Took me two tries but got it perfect. Air bubbles eventually sorted out over course of day. Only bubbles I have are the ones next to the earpiece.

I would definitely apply it when the screen is fresh and clean. Once you start using ur fingers on the screen you'll get oil and dead skin on it and you would need some kind of solution to clean it off before applying the sp, so do it when the screen is still fresh.

Oh and LMAO @ ^^

ROFLMAO this is a hilarious thread guys..haha...keep it up. Oh and one more thing. When applying the stock screen protector do not, i repeat, DO NOT touch the sticky side. It will pull off tiny bits of skin and make it look cloudy.

Yes, there's slightly decreased touch sensitivity, but that's a tradeoff I'm willing to make.

i managed to get the stock one on with a little bubble under the lower right corner. doesn't affect teh display or sensitivity. i would worry about it getting snagged, except the bezel and the button panel are just a smidge higher, so the problem is purely aesthetic.
fully functional, no downside, and it's already included.
hell, it even serves to even out the profile of the phone, like the phone was designed for the protector.

Yeah i noticed that too, perhaps that unusual elevation of the button pad people are noticing is only to accommodate for the screen protector?

Same answer I gave you before. If there was a spray-on condom that had all the benefits and didn't decrease sensitivity, I'd wear it. I've already got two kids. I don't want an accident. Since they don't, though, I go without.

Same applies here. Have you USED the included screen protector or the Boxwaves? Try them before you continue to state that they make the screen less responsive.
