Choosing The Right Screen Protector

Im using Ghost Armor. I was skeptical at first but I have found that it really repels grease smears from fingerprints. Its kinda amazing actually. And its really smooth like glass. Not as smooth as my old Seidio Ultra Crystal's. But I dont have to wipe the screen clear of fingerprints. Ever.
 
I'm using the stock Verizon ones. You get three, they work.

My only gripe with these as opposed to the Incredible which worked well -- these are very short While you don't need it to cover the entire front of the phone, it should be closer to the edge. These just cover the screen area, not the buttons. It's quite clear, not terrible with fingerprints and less of an issue about space on the sides when you have the gel case on it. On the bright side, you don't have to spend a long time worrying about the perfect centering. On the dark side, it is a tad short. It's cheap. Works.
 
I'm using the SGP Crystal Clear. Feels very very nice. Almost like there's no screen protector on there. Only thing I really hate about it are the finger prints. It's worse than having no screen protector. Every time I touch the screen it leaves a finger print. Wiping off the finger prints is pretty tough also. Without the protector I'm able to just use my shirt and the finger prints would come right now. With the protector I really have to keep wiping to get rid of it. It seems to just push the grease around instead of lifting off.

Now if I'm using the supplied mini micro fiber cloth, it works great. It picks up the grease so easily.
 
This is the Zagg, if you look close you will see a tiny bit of texture to it. This helps hide finger prints.

I'm a Zagg fan too. I really like the wet application as it is easier to get the thing aligned just right. The Zagg I got for my TB is cut perfect.

The anti-fingerprint thing works, but the downside is I see more surface dust. It is pretty easy to brush off with a quick wipe on the pants, but it does show up.

FWIW

So does that make the screen look duller (in terms of sharpness) or something?

Yes kinda. The zagg's are very high quality, it looks fine in the dark, but take it out in the sun it looks very ugly, I am not joking. I couldn't live with it. I do love the way it gets installed though, very easy to install.
