new epic, looking for screen protector and tips

[gTen]

I ordered one of these...

http://www.stealthguards.com/index.p...rotection.html

I mean free + $2 shipping for full body...I'm not expecting anything good for that price but I figure to give it a shot for only $2...once I get it I'll post on how crappy/if its any good and etc..

Its crap...in itself it is ok but it was NOT MEANT for super amoled..seems like for super amoled you need a specific screen protectors from those that know what they are doing.

Nice find, I just ordered two for 4.85 total, its worth a shot for that price anyways.
Oh and anybody thinking that this so called Gorilla glass is so scratch resistant, I regretfully was hoping the same and thought i should be ok without a screen protector and guess what? I already got a nice scratch on left side of my epics beautiful screen. No drops and I dont even know how or when it happened. So as much as I like the nice slick glass feeling on my finger I guess I will have to get a protector.

The scratch is really not as bad as it looks in the pic, I guess I just caught the light just right in the pic. It definitely doesnt wipe off. &%#@ Gorilla glass!

You and me both buddy.

This is the 5th day I've had my Epic. It's been nowhere but sitting face up on a desk or in my pocket (with nothing else like keys in it). Hasn't been dropped. Nothing sharp has come remotely near it.

And yet I have a very light, but most definitely permanent and visible, scratch sweeping all the way across my screen.

I'm uber pissed, and will probably go back to Sprint today, though I can't imagine there's anything they can do for me.

Most of all I'm just baffled how the scratch got there.

I honestly feel sick to my stomach seeing that.

I have no idea how you (and others) end up with scratches like that on your phones. I have taken a screwdriver to the front of mine trying to scratch it and can't...

Maybe I'll just get a screen protector before my luck runs out LOL.

I have used the Zagg screen protector on my touch pro. It was great and they did replace it for free when it scratched (but not my screen). Pricey though. It does protect. I don't know how it would look on the Epic screen. Had no effect on my TP. The only difference is that it didn't have the glossy feel of glass.
