InvisibleShield vs Bodyguardz

[nbaj2k]

I'm definitely looking forward to how people like the BodyGuardz and how many pieces it is and what it looks like on the Touch Pro

I personally recommended BodyGuardz, I use IS on my HTC Touch and the IS have this texture if i tilt the phone and the plastic felt tacky.

Now i use BodyGuardz i see the screen better, plastic felt smooth. It's cheaper also.

I removed my InvisibleShield over the weekend and installed my BodyGuardz for my Touch Pro. It is a major improvement!! Much clearer screen and much smoother flip scrolling. The BodyGuardz pieces are labeled for installation and they cover more area of the Pro. They are more precisely cut and the unused pieces are removed so that it is easier to remove the pieces that you need. I still don't like the little wings that are on both for the battery cover. I realize that there isn't a good way to cover a curved surface but they get snagged easily going into a pocket and I've had to trim them off of both the InvisibleShield and the BodyGuardz. I figure it's only the corner of the battery cover and if something would happen to it I could always just replace it pretty cheaply.

Hope this helps. Feel free to throw questions my way.

The best way to see them is to go to both web sites, InvisibleShield and BodyGuardz. They have very good pictures of the back cover pieces. Since the Touch Pro's battery cover is curved at the corners both InvisibleShield and BodyGuardz had to cut the corners out which creates little wings that rap back around the curved corner. This method does cover more of the battery cover but they are so small that it doesn't take much for them to get pulled loose. Once they're loose they collect fuzz and dirt very quickly in your pocket and there is no way to stick them back down.

Thanks for the info, I ended up pulling the trigger and getting the full body protection for the Sprint Touch Pro, as soon as I get it Ill head to the store to pickup the phone. Although I'm definitely going to miss my Treo 800w

Now lets see how easy it is going to be to do to a good job putting it on....

I agree 100% & I have both setups sitting here. When I ordered the IS, I was in a hurry (I didn't want to scratch the brand new TouchPro) & the BGZ setup was not available yet. I shouldn't have rushed however, even though IS had it listed as "available" it took almost a month for my order to come (their CS sucks) & by then both setups where available.

I had already tried both setups previously on a few Titan's & IMHO the BodyGuardz setup is far superior to the IS in every way.

so it's slicker and clearer... but does it seem like it's as good in the quality department as the invisi-shield? If you had to watch your phone get tortured with a key... which skin would you prefer on it as far as scratches? Or are they about the same?

I would guess they are almost identical in that regard (although I'm not about to test it) ;-0
