droid x screen protectors? waste of time...

[intodeep]

I was thinking about getting invisible sheild today.

I had not heard of Zagg is it better then invisible sheild or are they comparable?

They're actually the same thing.

Thank you. sorry for my ingnorance.

Yeah, the moron at Verizon basically said I had to buy the screen protectors from them otherwise I wouldn't get a 25% discount on the dock. I put it on and ripped it off within the first 4 minutes, because like you said, it doesn't cover the whole screen, and I think it looks terrible. I instead went to the Zagg kiosk in the mall and got that full protection. Zagg is the best, I have it on my Droid 1, iPad, , Blackberry, Zune and now my Droid X. I refuse to use anything else.

The gave me the same deal to get the discount on other accessories. They had me get the V anti-glare ones. If I was going to mostly use it outside, I might have left it on, but really hurts the contrast/brightness indoors.

No screen protector for me. It seems to me if you have an event catastrophic enough to scratch Gorilla Glass a plastic protector isn't going to help. I've also found screen protectors reduce the accuracy of the touch screen. They can also make the screen look terrible depending on what one you buy.

I'm going naked as well. I also keep mine in a pouch.
Nothing like the feel of the naked glass

I've had my droid since November, and I'm fine protecting it with nothing but an empty front pocket.

Folks posted this a while back but its been months since I've seen it.
This looks like some tough stuff here:

Me and my wife both have SGP (Steinheil) screen protectors on ours. They are absolutely incredible! Wife has the anti-glare on hers and I the Ultra Clear. The anti-glare softens the screen slightly, but my wife loves hers. It's saved her butt on a drop once already, if the protector hadn't been on there her screen would have chipped for sure. I have never seen another screen protector as good as the Ultra Clear! Can't even tell that there is a screen protector on it. Look and feel is near identical to the original glass. Super easy to install too.

Screen protectors are mandatory for me when I have a touchscreen device. I don't care how tough the screen is. It's not invincible.

If you go here you will read where a guy got an small scratch on his Droid screen. Is the Droid screen made from Gorilla Glass also?

I started out with a verizon screen protector and it sucked big time. I went to best buy and got a zagg the next day, I like it much better but it still does not fit the entire screen surface even after centering as close to perfect as i could and smoothing it out. Also once in a while i'm not able to run my fingers over the screen very smooth when using swype. I'm interested in the SGP can anyone tell me how they compare to zagg or what they prefer in their opinion.

Can someone provide a few links to the best options for protectors for the X... I am having trouble finding which is the right one...

Thanks!

The Droid X is made with/from/of Gorilla Glass.

I still use a Zagg skin because I would be majorly agitated if I scratched the screen.

Note: I seem to be pretty horrible at putting on the Zagg skin because I can still tell it's there and it never looks as good as a naked screen...but I won't be happy if I scratch it...

Also, if you do go with Zagg.com, sign up for the IPAD giveaway on their site (I know, I know, how could I...) but you get a discount in your email from 30% to 50% which can save some cash for those of you who are cost aware like I am.

I hate the Verizon protectors...they make the screen look like crap.

In my opinion SGP is better then Zagg. In covers more then the Zagg covers. You can get the Crystal Clear or the Anti-fingerprint Matted.
Look at this Video to see how the Anti finger print looks..[video=youtube;zTryWhU5XWs]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTryWhU5XWs"]YouTube - sgp antifinger print shields install for the motorola droid X[/video]
