Accessories I GIVE UP on screen protectors

I've had the Verizon anti glare (only cover square screen), Steinheil (see an edge around it that looks like crap and I've been through 4 thinking I was doing something wrong...before I had a full cover case that covered it, now I have the kickstand one that does not), full matte something from ebay (totally distorts screen and feels wrong) and some cheap crystal one (massive smudges). Unless someone gives me a rec for a perfect looking one that doesn't look bad before tomorrow I'm going naked. Clearly I have issues but I can't stand seeing my screen protector. :eek:
 
They get better after you use it for a little bit, they feel awkward because they are clean. The natural oils and sweat that comes from your finger tips make it smooth as glass to touch, even if you can't see it.

While smudges do occurr, I find I have to rub mine on my shirt or pant leg once or twice a day depending on how dirty my fingers are(I'm a nose picker after all ;) ).

Here are the ones that I bought on ebay, they work well, went on without any dust particles underneath, and cover the whole screen:
6 X Samsung FASCINATE i500 Screen Protector Guard Kit - eBay (item 160526664138 end time Jan-03-11 16:19:16 PST)

No matter what, once a scratch does happen to the main screen, it'll be there forever. I really recommend one, especially on a phone with as large of a screen as this.
 
Reallook or newlook protectors? Forget the exact name. They are $10 for two on Amazon. Fit perfect. I have had an array of different protectors for the D1 and the Dinc. These are great and long lasting for half the price.
 
I have Ghost Armor on my phone, and I love it. I've been a fan of their products for years.. but really learned to appreciate it with my Fascinate. I was a BB owner before, so I never noticed how smooth it was until I got a touch screen phone.
 
I spent the $20 at Best Buy for the Zagg screen cover and am glad I did.

They put it on for me, first time they didn't get it perfect so I went back and they redid it.

Had my phone laying on the ground and my girlfriend's dog slid across it and put a mark on it, Zagg is going to send me another one free and Best Buy will put it on free.

Seems like if you keep your phone long enough the $20 goes a long way.
 
So I spent the day "naked" and now not sure I can ever go back to a screen protector. I love it... I guess I'll take the risk and LOVE my phone while I have it :)

Yeah she's a slipper one but a moderate degree of care and you should be fine
 
+1 Zagg. Great protector, especially if you get the full phone version. Works great, and it lets you use any accessory like the car or home dock!..
 
Well. My beagle puppy managed to climb onto our bed and then grab the phone off the night stand yesterday. She only had it for a minute, but it was long enough for her to scratch the battery cover pretty good. However the screen protector took a beating, but save my phone screen!!
