Dry application is scray... wet application is scarier! However, once you get good at wet application, I really do prefer it. That being said, both can be done well if you have a few under your belt. On the Zagg, call them and they will be happy to send you a new one for free. I was a huge Zagg fan, but feel their product is software than it was last year. It doesn't have that military grade that it used to. I will say that they get better the longer they are on, so give it a solid week and don't play with trying to get bubbles out that are smaller than a ball point after the first few minutes. When Zagg send you a new one, do it over and leave it alone... it's kind of like when you have zits and your mother told you to stop touching them. :eek:

Based on reading this forum:

and have ordered the Oleophobic. I'm expecting it to be an improvement over the Zagg and will give me a more unprotected look and feel, i.e. closer to native, but with protection.

I wonder if Trojan or Durex will launch a screen protector line?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Dark_Lord0122:
When you get it delivered please tell us your opinion i am getting my SGSII really soon and i want a screen protector for it :) hopefully the oleophobic is good :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Little Dragon:
Wont be long before that zagg gets removed .. zagg is crap now in comparison
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Mitty1990:
I'm using the invisibleshield from Zagg cost me £14 but it's the best I have found so far and I think you get some lifetime warranty with the shield so if it gets wrecked they replace it, I think.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Hunteres:
mate if u dont mind - can u upload some pictures of the Zagg? i would love to see how it fits on the phone. Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II Accessories] AlWakRa:
I chose EMS small parcel (second choice) and it cost me 18$ (ordered the protector with Zenus hard case and 3 other cases for I9000 galaxy s)

Badly, the tracking number isn't bringing any information to this moment.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Hunteres:
mate did u ask them for stock before order? even if they are stating that dispatch in 48h -the info is incorrect. and i choosed the same option for deliver - the second...express delivery for small parcels...:) btw i was updated untill - handed over air incheon and then the next was an Ireland..nothing between them.. thanks for letting me know.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] skola:
i have a tiny scratch on my screen so have decided its time for a screen protector

£15?!?!? that feels excessive to me, considering my G1 came with one out of the box

memory card, protective case, now screen protector, the accessory list is growing

if this zagg one is amoung the best, and i am looking for something asap, mite i aswell just pick it up from a local store? (if i can) or is it worth ordering something online?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] rocketpaul:
Your telling me! 15 for essentially a piece of plastic lol. Ah well.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] skola:
haha exactly

they could have thrown a crappy one in as an accessory with the phone but that would undermine the "toughness" claim of the gorilla glass i guess
[Galaxy S II Accessories] narcoustic:
Ditto. Martin fields screen protectors are probably the best around.

Sent from the baddest phone in the universe!! - SGII using Xda App/Tapatalk ;-)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] nickbarbs:
Definitely have got several scratches that I can see in specific types of fluorescent light and sunlight. like 5 + throughout the screen, but you can't see anything when the screen is on.

I babied this so I have no idea how I got all these scratches..??
[Galaxy S II Accessories] luun:
im waiting for MartinFields that they come out with a set for the SGS2, im rly liking MartinFields ones and been using them before also.HTC DesireHD and HTC Legend.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Locster126:
Just ordered the zagg invisible shield maximum cover for 50% off, all shields are today off 50%
[Galaxy S II Accessories] sexpest699:
Where did yiu order from? Direct from them?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] AlWakRa:
After contacting them, they contacted Korean Post Office and Yesterday I saw the status updated. Now, the status is arrived to Qatar. I hope that I will receive them soon.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] LondonGemini:
I finally got my sgp ultra clear protector today and its perfect. Its very clear with no rainbow effect. I can highly recommend these screen protectors.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] kar111:
So here's the review for the ZAGG invisishield: it fits very nicely and protects the screen well. But it was the hardest thing i installed in my life. It is such a strain and 3 days later it started peeling off fro

m the edge and started collecting dust (probably due to my poor installation).

The touch felt pretty good and i actually found i could type better on the keyboard :)

so my verdict is

- great if you know how to install it.

- not so great if you fail like me.

carphone warehouse gave me a free casemate barely there case with it so im pleased overall :D
[Galaxy S II Accessories] masi0:
I have just received reply from PhoneDevil - IMHO making the best screen protectors for iPhones - thin and fingerproof - they will start selling i9100 version in two weeks :)

SGP Oleophobic

SGP Oleophobic - $11.19 + 3.37 s/h

Ordered from exportprive on 5/23 and shipped same day

Arrived 5/31 and installed.

Kit comes with 2 screens, 1 microfiber, 1 squeegee, 4 dust removal stickers.

The install videos typically show the screen with a single backing. My set seemed to have 2 covers marked Front 1 + Back 2. Went on great (but was confused about the front cover for awhile).

Fingerprints are rare and sometimes a little buildup occurs (dust?) and is easily wiped off. My finger doesn't slide quite as smooth, probably because of sweat/greasy. The screen is clear and the protector is hardly noticeable.

Overall pretty happy with the screen, but I probably wouldve been satisfied with the free SP coming with my case.

edit: Anyone using something to cover the back camera? Was hoping SGP would include a little square. If so, do you cover the flash?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] salex786:
I see a few people getting confused with the sgp screen protectors.is there a video showing clearly how to install it?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Artius89:
This video is nice:

[Galaxy S II Accessories] Corell:
Sorry wrong topic...
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jjwatmyself:
That's actually one of the better videos. Interesting how he lays down the vertical edge instead of the horizontal. I think that would result in higher success rates on first try alignment.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] mkrmec:
I was using Clarivues clear screen protector on my Nexus One. Sure the thing scratched quite easy but it didn't distort the screen and it fit perfectly. Gonna order it for my S2. Hope it's good :D
[Galaxy S II Accessories] iced_tea:
Just received my SGP Ultra Crystal protector yesterday. The protector comes with two sheets stuck on the front and back labelled "1" and "2" respectively. However I was stupid thinking that the front was the sticky part that you put down over the screen (since it was labelled 1). So I pretty much stuck it on reverse.

Found out after I touched the back. I did manage to get the protector on almost perfect still after I realised. However, there is a fingerprint smudge and two tiny dust particles underneath. It's really annoying me so I guess I have to buy another one. :(

The SGP Ultra Crystal looks almost invisible. However, it doesn't reduce the amount of fingerprints. I might get an Oleophobic.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] zxz88:
Try giving it a rinse in warm soapy water and rinse clean under the tap, worked on the martin fields protector I had before. Also the martin fields protector is out now and seems to indicate there is a camera lense protector included but I'm going to try out my SGP first.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ventrilocks:
the Oleophobic also doesnt remove much of fingerprints..i myself use olephobic..but it is clear 100%..good vibrant..:D
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Rixsta:
Martin shields ...The screen protector that picks up more fingerprints then any other protector ..

Massive Fail

London Magic Store on Ebay

Slightly too long and holes way out. Seller immediately agreed to a refund.

Who has already ordered the ZAGG full body coverage for USD24,98?

Who can give me a feedback? Im about to order it now!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Plonker:
I've been unable to decide on which screen protector to go with, but when I saw this 50% discount offer I decided it was time to buy. I've used lots of Zaggs and at least with 50% I can afford to ditch it if/when something better comes along. At least it's protected in the meantime.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Medulla_Oblongata:
I got a Brando UltraClear for my Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 about 2 years ago. It's pretty heavy duty and hardly got scratched at all, except for a few very minor usage scratches and one visible scratch when I carelessly used the 3.5mm headphone jack on the screen :P. But this one lasted 2 years and it's still on the screen

I ordered the same type for my (yet to arrive) Galaxy S2. I'll let you guys know what it's like.

Does anyone here have the Brando AntiGlare screenprotector? If so, what's it like?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] AlWakRa:
They sent me a message today to tell me their protector is available.

However, I will receive my SGP Ultra Optic soon. I hope our lazy post office employees send it quickly.

SGP Steinheil UltraSeries Ultra Oleophobic

SGP Steinheil UltraSeries Ultra Oleophobic for Motorola Atrix received and installed today. The Zagg came off very easily. Some diluted alcohol for initial cleaning, steamy bathroom is a tough one guys, the phone just mists up adding water to the dry application product. Although you can work in a bathroom knowing you are in an area with controlled air flow. I saved the included lint cloth for when I was actually doing the final cleaning, as the key is to keep small particles from getting on any of your work items. I would even suggest to clean the surface you are going to work on. Ok, so I installed from top to bottom, as positioning the ear piece cut out perfectly is the key to a mighty handsome install job. Next, the included dust stickers are a life saver. Literally as you spot a bit if dust in an area trapped after you have partially installed, you pull it up and put the sticker against the adhesive of the SGP and it pulls the dust off. It is stickier than the SGP. Duuuhh right!?!?. I did this a number of times and finally realized that the plastic film I had removed and re-inserted in order to stop my finger prints from getting on it was bringing dust from the work surface onto the SGP, hence the previous comment about cleaning the surface you plan to work on. So the end result... compared to the Zagg... ... ... please... I won't even answer that. Compared to the naked screen...YOU CAN'T SEE IT.... except where the earpiece cut out is enlarged creating a 1 mm border. The only improvement possible on this product is to reduce the size of the earpiece cutout to be exactly the same size as the earpiece itself. Oh, forgot to mention that the front facing camera is covered by the SGP. What a nice feature! So next, how does this thing feel under finger... compared to the Zagg... again... not even going to answer that! Compared to naked screen... YOU CAN'T TELL IT IS THERE... Alright peeps... grease factor... so, it is 7 pm and I'm a typical, incredibly good looking guy who has worked up a certain amount of natural sheen during the day. The girls stop me a lot even more when I've got my sheen going on. Ok, so I gave it a press on my face and what came off could have been used to design the next generation fly paper... you get the picture in terms of amount of grease... So then I rubbed it around to see what happens. It didn't vaporize like that special dog crap be gone spray from that movie. So I used a few areas of my hand to wipe it off and the quantity of grease pretty much went away leaving the typical "I didn't use Windex when I cleaned the bathroom mirror" (actually shaving foam stops glass from misting up). So what next... I put it in my pocket and BINGO, it rubbed against the inside of my jeans pocket (ok, so I did that three times). GREASE GONE!!!

The short version review:

SGP Steinheil UltraSeries Ultra Oleophobic

YOU CAN'T SEE IT

YOU CAN'T FEEL IT

GREASE GONE*

* Parental Supervision Recommended

Weird... :-/ that's pretty much what my last girlfriend wrote in the card when we broke up. :eek:
[Galaxy S II Accessories] aussiebum:
The Antiglare (I used to have on my HD2) isn't really anti-glare... it's more like anti-fingerprint (you'll still get some), but it significantly lowers image quality as it's no where near as clear as the ultraclear.

If you can, try get your hands on a Capdase anti-fingerprint instead. I've still got it on my HD2 and that screen protector is probably the only one I used so far that is basically fingerprint proof AND doesn't ruin the screen clarity.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] aussiebum:
Don't bother. This is what happens to all those full body protectors after a few months (see attachment) I think. Notice the nasty looking thick band of yellowness around the border. I also had a friend who used a full body zagg on his SGS1 and it looks all shiny and fugly after a few months.

The actual screen protector itself still looks fine and so do the sides (they haven't peeled off), but I think the heat coming off the Tab has basically ruined the back protection.

Oh this was a wrapsol (matte texture option) btw.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] KLoNe1:
I bought the ADQC27 Vikuiti screen protector from protectionfilms24.com since I heard good things about their past screens (tried ZAGG before and they have been quite good apart from the fairly difficult application).

DO NOT BUY THE ADQC27!!!

- I cannot stress this enough! My first one was cut incredibly inappropriately. They sent another one straight away. 2 weeks worth of waiting and applied the 2nd one they sent. STILL OFF!!

They did refund right away, but how on earth can their laser cutters be so inaccurate?

BE WARY!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] RMXO:
I got smart & took my SGP Super Crystal SP to my local ATT & had one of the CS Rep put it on for me. I swear they must have some magic machine to do it because its perfect.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Artius89:
THe sgp ultra oleophobic just arrived to me... i haven't word to describe it..

It's really amazing, totally trasparent, it's impossibile to see it besides the borders, and has the feeling of glass, not like the cheap plastic of a lot others screen protector.

I'm really impressed.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Rixsta:
I used the SPG Ultra crystal screen protector ...I think its the cheapest in the range and came with my case ...Its really good ...Very pleased with it..

These protectors are awesome ...

Does anyone know if the ultra oleophobic is much better or isn't there a big difference ?

I may get one for the hell of it lol
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jjwatmyself:
Scroll up to see my review from yesterday evening. :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Rixsta:
I think they are using the EX Film star Short Circuit or as he likes to be called Johnny Five to cut them ...He's getting a little old now :D
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Rixsta:
I saw that but it doesn't tell me if its a lot better than the crystal one ...Was just wondering thats all :)

Great review though and funny :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jjwatmyself:
Ahhhh. :) There is a youtube vid I watched to help me choose. It was a review of both side by side. Let me know if you need help finding it.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Rixsta:
Yeah ...Thats what I always do ....It always lines up perfect ..If the left edge is straight top and bottom you know the other side is going to lay down perfect ..Im yet to fail..

I always do it in a steamy bathroom :eek: (not to steamy) ...to apply the protector ...the steam gets rid of the dust in the air and is much easier to keep the surface clean..

Well thats my advice anyway..
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Rixsta:
Yeah saw that ...

Read and search like of should of in the first place ...seems the Oleophobic repels fingerprints better than the crystal one .....Think that's about it really ...

Personally the crystal isn't a fingerprint magnet but it does need a wipe now and again ..

Maybe I'll just stick with this one...
[Galaxy S II Accessories] cdd543:
I got the sgp crystal, extra battery and wall charger(i can charge one while using the other) from Export prive. Ordered the 27th and it arrived today..good service. I've used sgp ultra crystal before and it looks great.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] al_jolson:
I went for one of the Savvies screen protectors from Amazon. Think it came from a German seller. My experience was that it fitted perfectly, however after about 3 days of typical use with the phone not knowingly having been dropped or manhandled at all I noticed a scratch which had penetrated right through the screen protector. Fortunately the screen underneath was undamaged, but I can only really conclude from this that the Savvies was very very flimsy.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jjwatmyself:
I gave it a shot on both counts but ended up laying from top to bottom in order to perfect the earpiece alignment and the steam was introducing water vapor onto the dry application product. Kneeling on the floor, where there was less steam. Took me back a few days... I mean years, kneeling in front of the toilet like that.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] cheekystew:
ZAGG are by far the best, carphone warehouse do them and a case mate case (barely there) buy one get one half price.... you only get what you pay for in my experience...
[Galaxy S II Accessories] dk206:
Lol really? I like to see zagg shield put on a white phone after 2months of normal usage. My friends Galaxy S Ceramic white was soo filthy that she had to take it off. And yes it was done at cpw. Zagg is just awful and collects dirt around the sides. As sp good. But body? No way I'd recommend it to anyone.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Sleepycat3:
Unless it is a polyurethane type protector, it will always be susceptible to scratches. The screen protector served it's purpose by sacrificing itself to protect your screen. It is a wear and tear item after all.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] AFK_Matrix:
Hey there just put on one of the Steinheil Ultra Oleophobic screen protectors and it looks great can barely tell its there. But the actual feel of it doesn't feel great as it like your dragging your finger over a very slightly tacky surface. Nothing like the actual phone which is a shame, does this get better with use at all?

I have some of the Brasso Gadget care cleaning stuff which I use on my Transformer, can I use this on the screen protector or will it inter fear with the Oleophobic coating?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jjwatmyself:
Once you have an even spread of oil from your fingers tips it feels different, practically silky. Give an hour of use and you'll see what I mean. Let me know.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Sinsst:
Has alien surface came out for this phone? It's an improved version of zagg(less orange peel effect and clearer), i used it for my sgs and i am very satisfied with it, but i haven't found it yet for sgs 2.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Medulla_Oblongata:
Ah I see. In that case, I'm glad I ordered the UltraClear screenprotector again.

Capdase anti-fingerprint sounds interesting. Doesn't seem to be available for the Galaxy S2 though, at least can't find any myself.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Spong2:
Yeah mine felt "sticky" for a day or two also, but it only takes a day or two and it should feel much the same as the original glass. I've been happier with my Steinheil Oleophobic than any other protector I've ever had over the years.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] AFK_Matrix:
Yeah it was starting to get better with use. But today I mucked it all up grrrr as I wasn't 100% happy with the placement of the protector so took off to reposition and marked the damn thing with dust etc and even managed to do similar on the second protector ahhhhh!!!

So have ordered 2 more of the things as it was awesome when it was on and this time will try and find a hermetically sealed room to put it on lol!!!!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] stefan442:
are the official samsung protectors anygood on mobilefun.co.uk?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] R4mrod:
Sorry if this has been asked already in this thread but why do we want a screen protector on gorillaglass? :confused:
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Medulla_Oblongata:
because the phone is worth roughly €550 (about $800 USD) ?:p
[Galaxy S II Accessories] michaelko999:
:):):):):):):):)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Ayers976:
Same the tacky or sticky feeling went away completely. Smooth and oily.

However I am finding more and more fingerprints. They still wipe away easily. Not sure if that is the design of the oleophobic.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] mini1971:
Gorillaglass vs LCD

Because I keep my HTC Hero (LCD)without screenprotector in my frontpocket for two years now and never had a single scratch.

My sgs2 protected with my life in the first four days, but also without screenprotector, is already scratched FGS.......

GorillaGlass??????
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Sleepycat3:
The glass is Gorilla Glass. But the oleophobic coating is not made of glass. So the coating scratches. :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] TechKidTarek:
im confused on between the olephobic and the anti finger print the i will tell you guys basically i get rainbow colours on my screen when i wipe it some times and if it dries it makes the screen fell less smooth i want something that doesnt do that
[Galaxy S II Accessories] kei_kusanagi:
I'll buy a full body protector from Xtreme-Guard, it's cheap and good quality (I had one of them on my old SGS).
[Galaxy S II Accessories] dk206:
Gorilla glass is scratch resistant, not scratch proof.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] R3Y:
Has anyone bought any screen protectors from Zagg? Seems like they are the best out there.. Or not?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Rixsta:
Agreed ... You will still get little hair lines stratches over time ..

Sent from a world full of cookies.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] nicpol7:
i emailed case mate because of the wrong protector inside my barely there case and today i received 2 protectors from them for free..thats good service..
[Galaxy S II Accessories] R4mrod:
Gorilla Glass link :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] luun:
Ordered a MartinFields one. Hopefully no scratches till then..
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Chronicles404:
Well what dya know, my full body skinomi actually arrived! After receiving a full refund so essentially free :-)

Will install and post a review in the next few days.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] PeteRyde:
I'm a big fan of MartinFields protectors. Be interested to hear your opinion on it's fit and feel on the SGS2.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] mur76:
Zagg is crap and orange peel effect make your finger drag, it also starts to peel. not impressed
[Galaxy S II Accessories] kr00t0n:
My screen only one also arrived today (but I didn't get a refund :()

Won't be able to put it on until the weekend though due to the 12-24 drying time.
