Well I have had a screen protector on my X since the day I bought it. The Verizon rep put it on for me before I left the store. It was a VZW brand and was anti repfelctive. It worked very well. I decided since it had about 6 months of wear on it I would change it. WOW, when I stripped it off the clarity and colors really pop with no protectorr. No way I'm putting another one on. I'm not hard on the phone so hopefully there will be minimal scratches.
