I'm not much of person who invests in accessories for electronics, but I have decided to purchase a screen protector for my Atrix 4G for the front and the back. I came across the Incredible Shield in Ultra Coat from SGP and I am glad I bought theirs. It was a little hard to apply the film onto the phone, but that's just me. I've seen reviews on YouTube, and some of those guys they just seem to do the magic. The delivery was pretty fast and the quality of the product is superb!

+1 Same here.

@OP: I would like to know which one you go and how durable it has been since you put it on :)

If you can answer:
How does it feel? How is the visibility straight on/sides? How's the scratch/dent imprint resistance? How smudge proof is it? Does it collect dust? How easy was it to apply?
 
I broke down and ordered this one yesterday:

SGP Motorola Atrix 4G Screen and Body Protector Set Incredible Shield Series (Ultra Coat)

Going to try the side peices for the body personally, but will let you know how the screen protector itself turns out. Showing already shipped with tracking number, too, so that's nice. I researched various ppl that purchased it and decided to go with this middle one bc I don't think I'd like the matte finish and have read lots of reviews that it took away from the clarity of the screen. And also with this one I think it may protect alil better than the Ultra Crystal. (In this particular series)

Will update soon as I receive/apply.
 
I found this good review on the Steinheil from an OG member here.

Twelve thumbs up for the Steinheil Crystal... which, checking their site, they don't appear to sell anymore for the OG Droid.

First off, it's been pretty well invisible with a nice slick feel for the last year or so.

Secondly, and this is why I'm posting this, the phone fell down between the powered seat and center console of a Benz, and getting it out required moving the powered seat - it ended up exacting a similar motion to the screen as that of a can opener (with a sharp metal edge of the seat's assembly).

It literally ground a 2" groove into the screen protector, but the screen itself is fine. So happy. And kind of sad that I can't just buy another of the same thing.

I got the SGP Crystal Clear and I love it. It was so easy to apply compared to the Skinomi I had before and my friends who have Atrixes (or is it Atrices?) couldn't tell it was on there except when looking at the edges. It glides so smoothly and is very clear. The only very slight issue for me is that it isn't terribly fingerprint resistant. I can wipe it off very easily with the eyeglass cleaning cloth I keep with me but even in my pocket it can pick up smudges. This complaint only applies when the screen is off, though. Even if it's smudged, I can't tell when the screen is on. If I need a new protector down the road, I may try out the Oleophobic SGP.

I put the Skinomi on pretty well, with one small bubble due to lint and everything else pretty much perfect. After a two weeks of carrying the Atrix in my pocket, the Skinomi developed a few bubbles. I've had the SGP for a couple of weeks and it looks like the first time I installed it. I didn't realize how much the Skinomi drags until I put the SGP on. SGP is so smooth, virtually like the bare glass.

One tip for installing: do it in the bathroom after the shower has been running hot for a few minutes so the steam pulls the dust out of the air.
