Re: InvisibleShield vs Bodyguardz

Yeah the cases do end up making the phone a little bulkier and does take i totally agree how it hinders the sliding mechanism a little. Wish they could make a super think case like the silicone sleeve cases for the Diamonds and regular Touch

iI recommend to any Sprint TP owner is the case that sprint sells (I know...i cant believe i said it either). Its a hard case like the seidio case for the mogul (had it) but it feels better and you have an option to have a "clip tip" on the back or the included "plug" to make it flush, so you can put in your pocket. The name is "technocell". Got mine at the store but its also on the sprint website. Looks like it will fit any TP with a flush back...extended batteries excluded. If you like the seidio model for the mogul, then youll love this one!

Only if there were professionals that can gaurantee to put these on without the bubbles or dirt trapped underneath the film. The scratch resistance is awesome, but also it sorta makes the sensitivty on the touch screen not as responsive compared to a regular screen protector.
now a buddy acctually showed me this to get rid of my dust particles. go into your bathroom and turn the shower on really hot. the steam prevents the smaller particles from floating around. works well for me

Re: InvisibleShield vs Bodyguardz

I agree! BodyGuardz are the best. I've used both and I didn't like the slight visible texture of the InvisibleShield. It did finger print less but I didn't like the feel of it. When sliding your finger across it there is a noticeable friction unlike the BodyGuardz which is smoother. The BodyGuardz is completely clear and the sensitivity does not change with it installed. They also have a life time warranty.

Re: InvisibleShield vs Bodyguardz

in my opinion Boxwave makes the best screen protectors, I have used these on three different smartphones now. I have tried the Zagg and bodyguardz screen covers and didn't like the fact that they bothe have a grippy surface, the Boxwave screen covers feel like you don't even have a cover on they are ultra smooth and as slick as the screen itself.http://www.boxwave.com/products/clea...h-pro_3326.htm

Re: InvisibleShield vs Bodyguardz

The zagg/invisibleShields have that tacky feel because they are a bit thicker then your average screen protector and almost have a rubbery feel instead of plastic. My personal opinion is that the thicker screen protector makes me feel a lot more safe that scratches and gouges are less likely to happen. Also, I don't or have not had any problems previously sliding my finger on an invisibleshield screen protector. You have to be light with a stylus because it will dig into the screen protector BUT it "heals" instantly and leaves no lasting mark.

Re: InvisibleShield vs Bodyguardz

I had the invisible shield on my samsung a900 then my ppc 6700. It is probably the biggest pain in the arse to install it. You need to be very careful and lightly wet the film so it doesn't stick so you can move it, but at the same time not too much so it sticks a little. You then need to wait a good 24 hours for it to dry. What I did was put it under a lamp to accelerate the process.


Despite it being a pain to install both skins lasted over 1 year and when I took them off to replace (with the lifetime warranty free replacement) the device looked BRAND NEW. The skin is almost impossibly durable you couldn't scratch it if you want to.

Re: InvisibleShield vs Bodyguardz

For the Diamond (which is similar to the Touch Pro), Zagg cuts-out around the outside of the touchpad ring. They had a center circle that is installed into the center of the touchpad - and I threw out the 'donut' for the outer circle of the touchpad.
