Crystal clear by 500 miles. Glass like feel when sliding the finger across the screen. Compared to zagg grip type feel. Crystal clear looks better no orange peel affect.
So in short don't waste your time with zagg and go with the Clear.
 
But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be that man to walks a thousand to fall down that should do

Is there a noticeable difference in usability (finger stickiness) and touch screen sensitivity?
 
Does the SGP feel as "scratch/damage protective" as the Zagg? I have a zagg now and it seems very protective, but am thinking of getting something else.
 
Can you scratch the SGP or cause any damage to it?

Also, how well do the edges hold up on the SGP? Do they peel up or once the screen protection is on it is on.

I put my phone in my pocket and I'm looking for screen protection.

thanks
 
SGP should scratch since it's plastic. While the Clarivue looks like glass and there is nothing there, I don't feel it's very protective among other things, so I am going to Wrapsol. They never failed me in the past and I don't know why I have been wasting my money on other products.
 
How does it do with finger prints? I have the Zagg and finger prints are never a problem. But da** I hate that "orange peel effect" its so weird.
 
I ripped my zagg off after trying it a week. It was horrid! the edges collected lint, the orange peel was very noticiable, and the top layer seamed to scratch easily so, you have all these scratches on it, i ordered the SGP Crystal, got my shipping notifications today. Right now im using a WrightRight, and i works great, what i used on my storm for a year. but its only square, wanted to cover the entire glass area on this.
 
I had a Zagg. Good on protection, it fit nicely and it didn't attract too much finger smudge compared to plain glass, but I couldn't stand the tacky feeling and I didn't like how the orange peel effect distorted the screen somewhat (I don't want anything disrupting the AMOLED beauty...)

I now how a Clarivue clear protector on right now. Feels good and smooth swiping, scrolling, and such. And it is crystal clear. The only things I don't like is the way that it is cut (they do state that the fit is smaller than the front facing screen, and they weren't kidding...) And I don't like the U on the bottom.

So, hopefully the SGP Crystal will do the trick. Crystal clear, good protection, and nice fit/cut...
 
It's amazing how subjective this is... I have the Zagg and absolutely love it. It's a perfect fit, and the orange peel and tackiness that people have issues with was there for a few days, but now is completely gone. It's now smooth and nearly undetectable. That, along with the peace of mind that it's protecting the screen better than any other screen film can, makes me feel pretty good about my choice.
 
I tried the Zagg. Removed it. The orange peel effect and the tackiness drove me nuts. Switched to a SGP Steinheil Crystal Clear and I'm happy with it. I'm tempted to try a antiglare as I hear the matte-like finish allows your finger to slide very easily. I hear Boxwave is the way to go on the Anti-glare.
