InvisibleShield vs Bodyguardz

[pcedge]

Invisible Shield coupons are available online - I Googled "invisible shield discount" and found http://www.retailmenot.com/view/shieldzone.com with several codes for between 15% to 20%. The 20% code actually worked.

The prices at Best Buy are very high for only the screen version of the IS - about $20.00. I purchased the full body for about that, and a screen only for my wife's phone for about $9.00.

With that said, it has been almost a week, and I remain patiently waiting for my IS. As I noted previously, however, their customer service made it easy to replace my first IS, for my Creative Zen. It seemed to have been cut incorrectly. The replacement has been solid on that unit, for several years.

I hope this has been helpful.

You guys are wasting your money. I bought the BestSkinsEver full body for like 7 bucks, 10 bucks shipped and it works like magic. Save some dollars, buy the bestskinsever one. I doubt there is any difference. My only problem with it is that the screen is a little harder to operate because of the "rubbery" effect that you get but that's not a big deal at all and u get used to it fairly quickly

I was wondering if anyone can comment on the Boxwave Anti-Glare shield? Does it make a difference versus bodyguardz or IS?

I was thinking of getting the anti-glare for the screen and something else for the body. This is the one I'm talking about:

I flipped thru some of these pages, so if it is here, sorry to ask again.

Does the full body (of either one of these) make the Diamond slicker, or easier to fumble?

I had full body on Instinct, back was soft, grippy like Diamond, and can't decide if saving scratches is worth losing the feel of phone.

Any comments???

Invisible Shield most definitely makes the phone easier to grip.

Question for an admin here...
I got in touch with BSE guys, and mentioned this thread and asked if they would do a discount code for us. If they were to give me a code, is it ok to put it up on here for everyone to benefit?

Thanks!

Edit:

Well, they gave me a code to post here. So, I guess it's just awaiting a mod to notice this. I had also written to the contact us form just in case. I ordered three for myself and sister in law.

I thought it was really easy to put all the pieces on. You get 2 sheets, 1 for the front pieces and 1 for the back pieces. They were all pre-cut and pretty easy to pull off the sheets. I didn't have any issue understanding which piece went where. The batter cover has slits cut out making the "wings" everyone is referring to. But after 4 days those things are really stuck on the batter cover so no issue "yet" with them pulling off.

At first i wasn't to sure about the tacky/rubbery feel. But after it was on for 2 days that rubbery feel went away and it feels nice and slick. Haven't noticed any difference in touch flo. The first day when it had the rubbery feel i had to push harder when flicking. I almost pulled the screen piece off because i didn't like it. But i got distracted the next day so i didn't use the phone hardly at all. I'm glad i waited because now i'm going to leave it on. It's very clear. I showed some folks at work and it took them a while to see that i had it on there.

Cons:
1. the thin pieces that go around the chrome should be a little bit longer, there's a little bit of a gap between each piece and they collect dirt easily.
2. Hard to clean each piece of the phone your applying pieces to with out moving the other pieces you've already installed. Doable, just takes time/patience.
3. Hard to get air bubbles out around dpad ring.

Pros:
1. Near full body coverage.
2. Only $8 bucks.
3. Very clear and slick after 48 hours.

I bought 2 sets, so now on to putting the other one on my wife's TP.

do you need to remove the stock screen protector to do this? I ordered the BSE and should be here tomorrow.

I haven't seen any reviews for anyone that received a Bodyguardz screen protector for their Touch Pro. Anyone out there that has and can give a review on how it looks with Pics by chance?

thanks,

Sorry for this flame, but this thread is full of BodyGuardz reviews. I did one myself.

Well, I've searched this forum for discounts/coupons, and they're all over the place. I should have done that first. So, it doesn't seem to be a problem. Here's the code:

PPCGeeks

It's only for the Sprint Touch Pro version, and it takes $2 off the price. I was able to buy three for less than the cost of one of the other brand's product. I would have bought a skin for an ipod touch, but I bought mine used, and it didn't need more than the skin & case I already had bought for it.

It expires Wednesday the 17th, so if you're still on the fence, give these guys a shot. Great reviews here and elsewhere on the web for their skins.
