First I had a Chinese matte, anti-finger print screen protector but it was terrible. It was not smooth and it made my finger itchy. So then I paid HTC a visit and had them replace it with a genuine, crystal clear one and I will never look back. I'll probably have it changed every couple of months or perhaps as soon as I feel or see that it's getting worse. It's so smooth it made me love my touch screen a whole lot more. The only problem with crystal clear protectors, or at least the one I have, is the finger-print issue; however, they provided me with a very small microfiber cloth that has "HTC" logo on it which I keep on my pocket for regularly cleaning the screen.
