Fun? I had an abscess that was more fun.
The best screen protector is gorilla glass 2. Comes already on the screen. I never used a protector on my s2, s3 and don't have one on my note 2. the glass is very scratch resistant and I feel a protector only takes away from the screen. Even the smudges are easy to get out

I went naked with my original Droid, and Droid X. But on my Bionic, I noticed tiny scratches appearing. My brother noticed the same on his S3. I don't think the current version of gorilla glass is as scratch resistant as the old. We both have protectors now....

Alright, I just ordered the sgp Ultra Oleopobic protectors. After 3 days of having the ultra crystal on I can't stand the fingerprints. Scandalex is right. The actual naked glass doesn't smudge like the ultra crystal. As soon as I get the Ultra Oleopobic I'll post my findings.

Okay, so I really haven't even had that much time with the phone, but I really do like it a lot...and, I'm realizing why I felt the Ultra Crystal didn't have as much fingerprint residue (and was easier to clean). I honestly think it has something to do with the glass that's used on the Note 2. Just in the short time I've had it, I've put my fingers all over the darn screen, similar to how I did with the Photon. There's nowhere near as much residue as I would get with the Photon. Same thing with the original EVO, and my Flyer tablet.

Dangit - I just ordered the ultra crystal! Do let us know how this turns out - I might have to do the same (again - I just ordered the Seidio Surface too - copying you man!).

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who recommended the SGP screen protectors! I ordered one and put it on a few days ago. It works great and was easy to put on correctly the first try. The Spen also works without any issues. (slides easily) Well worth the price compared to the other screen protectors I have used in the past. Thanks again!

I've read through this entire thread and decided to give this SP a try. I placed my order before my device is already here. I'm def prepared for my precious to release now!!!

Now that I have both my Sprint and International version, I can at least install my Zagg custom skin and my SGP Oleophobic on the international version. Sprint version will likely be traded in for the grey version fairly soon.
That said, I also see what dbpaddler (I think that's who mentioned it) was saying about the curved glass. At the very edge of the phone, it almost looks like there's a screen protector on the phone already, but it's the actual glass. Makes way more sense to me now because the glass is actually, slightly raised on the edges.

Okay so I got the SGP Oleophobic late yesterday and just put it on and all I can say is WOW! Huge difference from the Ultra Crystal in terms of any visible smudges. I also feel like my finger glides across the screen better than the Ultra crystal too. They definitely sold me on this one. It will be my protector of choice from now on. Went on a little easier since I just put the Ultra on about a week ago and got the hang of it. Now taking off the surface case, that was a bit of a challenge! Highly recommend the Oleophobic for anyone who's on the fence.
I was thinking of going with the Ultra Crystal for the best clarity and I'm not a fan of matte finish protectors because they usually diminish the clarity. But that's not the case with the Oleophobic?

The oleophobic is totally clear and to my eyes looks just like the ultra. The difference is the oleo has a thin layer of a chemical that repels oil. I've had the ultra on all my smartphones but the oleo definitely makes the smudges less noticeable while making the tactile experience much more pleasant.

This is the main reason I went with the oleophobic version. I forgot who told me originally, but they said it looked just like ultra except didn't have to wipe screen as often.

Yeah I don't know why I waited so long to try it.
