I really can't wait to receive my SGP Ultra Oleophobic screen protector...it's on its way...

Is it hard to install?

I used InvisibleShield before for my previous iPad and my bro's iPhone, and I found the method to apply it is just ridiculously hard =D, it's a good SP I guess, maybe because I normally used those cheap bad plastic sp from ebay =D

For those who never use InvisibleShield and planning to use it, just a heads up for all of you that the installation process is a pain, well there is a better solution, which is use more solution provided...Last time I ask them to ship me more solution, it made the process easier =)

I'll post my review on the SGP Oleophobic when I received it :) .... EXCITED !! =D
[Galaxy S II Accessories] bruflot:
Way harder to install than InvisibleShield. The spray on InvisibleShield makes it easier to squeeze out the air bubbles.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] kotaro_14:
Yes, but you have to wait 24 hrs. until you turn on the phone.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Sleepycat3:
You can push the bubbles out from under the SGP screen protectors too. After using the Invisibleshield for iPad and iPhone4, I have to say that the SGP (I use the ultra crystal) is easier to apply.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] uscool:
Hi what about the quality SGP ultra crystal when viewing screen ? i bought the ultra crystal aint recieved , was wanting that dont effect screen quality at all, cause we all know how good the screen is on s2
[Galaxy S II Accessories] R3Y:
^^There is no effect on screen quality. I have Ultra crystal and it is barely noticeable on the screen..
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Jeremy:
I hate my ultra oleophobic from SGP.

Such an oil magnet :(
[Galaxy S II Accessories] uscool:
Thanks for that, still waiting for mine to arrive, in the mean time i got a cheap one on only been on for a week and its badly scratched up, only thing worried about is messing it up while putting it on, only get 2 so cant afford to mess it, need to find a dust free place, is it slightly smaller then screen in size ? cause worried wont get it perfectly aligned

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Accessories] R3Y:
I applied mine in an air conditioned room with no air waves etc. so that no stray particles could move and settle around.

Yes it's just about right to give you enough room to fit it on the screen. I think the gap would be around 0.5mm. barely noticeable yet gives you enough margin to apply right.

Just follow the videos on SGP website, I used that method. :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jjwatmyself:
Agree x 10, but because you can see all of your errors is the thing that makes it more difficult. I found that preparing a dust free area with alcohol, wiping down everything you put in the area, room with no moving air, humidity from shower, scrubbing hands, dust stickers, Not touching the adhesive side of the film, eventually repositioning the peel away on the bottom corner and you can accomplish an invisible install. It takes some serious patience and concentration. But that's to get it perfect. :-) SGP Oleo is the best I have seen ever. They get greasy like anything, but you can wipe it. One guy on here mentioned he upgraded from a micro Fibre cloth from his sunglasses to a larger cloth with scotch Brite. He said it was a great product and found on ebay.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] EarlZ:
What did you expect, the anti finger print is the ultra fine/matte.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ithehappy:
Agreed 100%. Oh I've had my lesson, never gonna try and apply a scrathguard again in my life. Better let the work done by professionals.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] s2_d2:
I just fitted a Martin Fields screen protector. Took my time, spending about 10 minutes to make sure there was absolutely no dust on the screen! Humidity from the shower. Applied it slowly and there was bubbles everywhere. Thought I must have not got the alignment 100% right. Peeled it off and reapplied. Now I had a little amount of dust :( and 3 areas with bubbles.

Managed to remove one small area where there was a bubble and almost remove another at the top corner. Bottom left hand corner has about 1cm of a bubble that can't be removed. I tried peeling back the corner and reapplying with no success. So I'm stuck with that. It doesn't affect the actual display, so I won't be so pernickety about it, seeing as I don't want to throw £10 down the drain.

Apart from the troubles of fitting it, I really like it. Still feels as though I'm touching the glass, without any screen protector. Picks up finger prints and smears but it's no hassle to wipe it off once in a while.

Before the Martin Fields protector I used the Zagg Invisible Shield. I feel it was a more effective way of applying a protector and you didn't have to worry so much about getting the alignment perfect first time as you can slide the protector into place, due to the liquid used underneath. There was no bubbles and just got one dust particle underneath. Though there was a distinct unsmooth texture to it which may put some people off.

So for applying, I'd go for the Invisible Shield. For the actual feel of the protector, Martin Fields is very natural as if you don't have a protector on the phone, yet is trickier to get perfect.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] getzy57:
Thanks for the info, very helpful. Think I'll try the invisible Shield first. Did you happen to use either of them under an external case of some kind?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Pfeffernuss:
That's a bad decision IMHO. But we'll hear from you when you have it applied and look at the result :D

The Stenheil Ultra Olephobic screen saver has just been delivered to me this morning impresed with the fast postage as i only ordered it last Wednesday and it's come from South Korea, anyway folks did someone on here post a video giving tips on the way best to install this screensaver i wanna get it right first time after paying €12.

The case I have for the phone is a CaseMate Barely There. I removed it before applying the screen protector and made sure the phone was spotless. Now the glass is protected with the screen protector and around the phone with the CaseMate Barely There.

Why do you think it's a bad decision? The result I had was that there was absolutely no bubbles with the Invisible Shield and perfectly aligned. All the bubbles were removed easily with the squeegee (due to a liquid application). The only reason I prefer the Martin Fields is the feel of the screen protector. If you like it to feel like it's still the glass of the phone you are touching I'd recommend Martin Fields protector. If you don't mind having a very, very slight "orange" feel, then I'd recommend the Invisible Shield due to the application being easier to get right first time.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jonny68:
I can confirm the ultra olephobic is excellent far better than a Zagg shield i had previously, highly recommended.:cool:
[Galaxy S II Accessories] thawizard:
Regarding Oleo.. If you complain about smeared screen or rainbow effect.. wash your hands. :D

Clean, dry hands will leave absolutely no stains on the screen.

Other than that, it's much easier to clean stains with a fiber cloth than on gorilla glass itself. Just swipe over and it's gone.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] EarlZ:
This is what I noticed, the Gorilla glass is extremely easier to clean its like the oil gets sucked by the fiber cloth! Are there any other screen protectors that as clear as the Ultra Oleo but more slippery to the touch ?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] gaui:
What about Clear-Coat ?

http://www.clear-coat.com/product.php?productid=1343&cat=42&page=1
[Galaxy S II Accessories] EarlZ:
Meh, I dislike wet installs, and removing trapped dust is almost impossible on those things!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Plonker:
After having my SGP Oleo installed for a few weeks my only complaint is how quickly it becomes smeared and dirty. I was expecting a little resistance to such things, afterall, it is supposed to be oleophobic, i.e. repel fingerprint oils; but, to me, it's worse than the Zagg it replaced.

I don't think it's particularly easy to wipe clear, either. Although, it is dependant on the type of cloth you use. I have a mf cloth that came with my Zagg shield and that just smears the smudges around. It's quite silky, with a short & tight weave. I have another type of mf cloth, with a deeper, more open weave and it fares better. But I chose the oleo on the basis that it had a modicum of fingerprint resistance.

I'm very pleased with the clarity of the SGP and it's head and shoulders above the orange peel of the Zagg.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] rocketpaul:
agreed not very phobic after 2 weeks, more oleophillic now.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Essmilys285:
Some screen protectors have unfavorable qualities. The screen protector I first used gave my screen a rough and sticky surface. This was an annoying effect, because there was a 'drag' on my fingers every time I swiped the screen. The screen protector also made my screen appear kind of cloudy. It was one of those "not so good" screen protectors.

I subsequently got GadgetShieldz full body protection. It was clearer, and there was a major difference between it and the last screen protector I used. It was as if I had switched to HD or something. GadgetShieldz was also smooth, and I could operate my screen with ease. The last screen protector I used made swiping difficult, but with GadgetShieldz, I just glide through. I also use it for the other side of my phone.

nice review, still looking for the most one:)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] IIIPowerIII:
Ive bougth a SGP Samsung Galaxy S2 Screen Protector Series Crystal clear, It doesnt look that hard to install.

I cant wait to try it :D
[Galaxy S II Accessories] runlsd:
Using the iShieldz here. Seems like it works exactly like Invisible shield. But less expensive.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] harrisony:
Do you really need one considering the phone has gorilla glass?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Disfected:
Gorilla glass isn't scratch proof, it's just more scratch resistant. You never know when something bad will happen, especially when you live near the beach.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] rocketpaul:
You dont need one, but its just extra protection. Ive gone naked because all the screen protectors give that annoying rainbow effect.

SGP glass protector mini review

+ "Glass" feeling when touched

+ Very clear

+ Easy to mount

- Cracked first day, so I had to remove it (but maybee I was unlucky)!

- Adds weight, about 9 grams and 0,4 mm thickness - it is noticable!

- Significanltly decreasease visibility of screen in bright light

- Quite expensive

At the end I think I will go with an unprotected screen, accept a few scratches as the Gorilla glass is quite soft and be more careful!

[Galaxy S II Accessories] _cummoo:
Brando UltraClear Screen Protector is brilliant!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] beWater:
got SGP crystal clear, installation was alright except for two dust spots I only noticed after the installation, I can live with them.

Very clear and glassy feeling, not rubbery at all, however it is now turned into a crazy fingerprinte magnet, should of get something that has an anti fingerprint property

Overall I am happy with the product :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] netcitizen:
Is this scratchguard a wet type install ?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] sader0:
Nice and simple protector indeed. Will cost 12 $ including worldwide shipping per order.

NOTE: Ultraclear is the best of Brando, Reflective one is also good, but imho have som issues with white color transition.

Considering all these procetors are washable & reusable - this is great deal for me.

This is just personal opinion - NOT AD

P.S. already used SGP protectors(except thisckest one)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] poch_1421:
i'm using a capdase screen protector with a matte finish. fits perfectly.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] afhum:
I did as well but i took it off after few days cos i find the grainy rainbow effect on it annoying. Do u notice? It's bare now. Hoho. Gorilla glass smoothness~ i hope that the screen is really scratch resistant.

But yes, the screen protector fits perfectly ;)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] poch_1421:
yup, i noticed that as well :D

i think an oleophobic screen protector from SGP would not show that grainy rainbow effect
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Droum:
I first tried the SGP Ultra Optics, then the Ultra Oleophobic, then got back to the Ultra Optics hehe.

Ultra Oleophobic is crystal clear, a very very good screen protector, easy to install, and easy to understand why is one of the preferred screen protectors around. I just got tired of cleaning it up.

Ultra Optics is more "matte", not so crystal clear of course, but cleaning it up is so rare, and when you do it it's so easy.

In the end it's all about personal preference. You want crystal clear go Ultra Oleophobic, you want it more "dirt" proof go Ultra Optics. Both are top notch screen protectors, and I never found screen protectors so easy to install as this.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] siniy:
Got couple matte nonames from ebay. From what I've read here it supposed to be great. But rainbow ruins all the clearness of amoled+.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] poch_1421:
besides SGP Glas (i think), do u know of any other screen protector which includes a home button protector as well?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] lexi250:
^ +1, loving my Ultra Optics too! :cool:
[Galaxy S II Accessories] LBTaylor1984:
Samsung do official ones for the Galaxy S2 dickie2007 O2 retailers stock them

I'm using the Invisishield one,

I find that;

- it's quite rubbery, you must pay attention that your nails don't dig in (will stretch)

- The surface is mottled

- The fit is very exact and in some respects a little difficult to fit

- Installation was difficult, regardless of what you know, or have been showed floating the screen on washing up fluid + water is a pain when you push the water out the protector, it moves and if you try to hard to stretch it (does return to normal shape if removed)

- When installing you can wash the protector if you get dirt on the sticky side

- Bubbles take up to 2 months!!! to disappear (I'm talking about the ones smaller than a needle TIP)

- Protection is awesome thrown in with keys, pens, change it has suffered no damage.

at £20 there expensive, but I do feel it provides the highest level protection currently available.

Ultra Oleophobic

I've been hesitating to install *any* protector on my Galaxy Nexus, but I'm starting to get scratches, so the time has come.

Bought the Ultra Oleophobic from Spigen - absolutely wonderful. I was meticulous in making sure the screen was absolutely spotless and dust-free before I applied it, and as such, it went on the first time perfectly (aside from it being just a hair off-center, which was my fault). Absolutely no bubbles, and none of the edges are messed up at all - it looks like nothing's there (not counting the edge of the protector).

Glad I did my research, and I'm glad I took my time with it.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vj_dustin:
Hey, has anyone used the Gadgetshieldz screen guard?

I searched the thread and found only one review, and he seemed happy.

I'm asking because usually I get a $1 or Rs.60-70 screen guard off eBay, but this one costs about $8 i.e. Rs.499

So is it worth it?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] CrazyKnight:
I just use a case and it keeps it absolutely clean and barley any scratches or anything
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Kaloosh:
Hi ppl,

I was wondering if anyone still knows of a place you can purchase Ultra Oleophobic from Spigen! or any of the Spigen screen protectors for the ole S2. I realise the device is somewhat old now but definately not game over for it just yet.

Been looking on Ebay and google searches but it seems they have stopped doing it for this device now! great shame indeed.

As I would really like to have got one of these screen protectors.

based in UK...

Has anyone used one of the new Glass Protectors ?

It's like a rigid 0.3mm screen protector, 9H or 5H scratch-resistant....wonder if the touch-screen works fine after installing one...

I've always used Zagg IS screen protectors on my phones and cameras, but after watching/reading a few reviews Ghost Armour seems to be getting highly rated. I have no idea if they ship to the UK, but their website doesn't list a protector for the S2 yet. Anyone used them? Do they really have less of an 'orange peel' effect then Zagg's?

i dont think that the cut-out for the 2 sensors below is important, do you?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Vulpix:
Christ people, do yourselves a favor, go gmarket or whatever, buy a SGP or Stenheil screen protector. Those things have always been top notch quality, with excellent cutting. :( I'm upset even protectionfilm24, one of my favorite suppliers have become so shoddy in their cutting. :(

Where did you order from?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] RMXO:
I went with SKinomi from amazon & saved $2 compared to the website. I use to love SGP but after putting on a Skinomi on my TF101, I'm going to stick with Skinomi as my screen protector of choice.

Case-Mate -- looks good BUT...

I got my Case-Mate Clear Armor today. Ordered direct from Case-Mate. Good cut on the precision of ports and such -- bad cut in that the button part i had to basically stretch the film to get it to detach. The headphone cutout was the same.

Also, they were supposed to include two in the box -- I only got one.

I've emailed their CS department - and my Zagg IS should be arriving soon - we'll see.

At least the case-mate fits - if the cut had been more deep, this shield would be pretty much perfect.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] outsidah:
I had the same exact experience with the case-mate. They didnt cut this film correctly, I emailed CS as well and no reply yet. I only got 1 as well.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] dk206:
Guys becareful i got 2 sp from two different companies on ebay and they are NOT CUT RIGHT. looks like these companies haven't tested their products out properly.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jjwatmyself:
I've used Zagg on an iPod touch and iPhone 4 and very impressed with PERFORMANCE and LONGEVITY. Put a zagg on my atrix last night and noticed their solution left a film of grease like residue on the glass so used alcohol instead... unfortunately it wrecked it so I took it off an hour later. Then read that they had a formula change so exchanged it for a new one and will try again tonight to see how it is. Reading the other comments, like me, everyone wants the best product. I think that the newer zagg has less OP and because they last so long and have that IMPACT resistance due to being very elastic, I do think it is the right product to "set and forget".
[Galaxy S II Accessories] donharden2002:
Isn't that what we want out of a good condom;)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jjwatmyself:
Who knows, maybe they'll branch out in that direction. But will they come with a spray bottle, lint free cloth and squeegee?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] dinan:
Do they even make the screen protector for the galaxy 2 yet? I don't see it on SGP's site...

I'm trying to get sellers on ebay to send me a picture of the item they will actually send me, but its like trying to get blood out of a stone!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] nikzDHD:
I'll let you know when receive my SGP hopefully next week was shipped early last week.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] LondonGemini:
I would if I could read Korean!

I ordered a brando one which came in at under £10 with shipping straight from their site.

I guess I will have to be careful until it gets here. I hate not having a screen protector on my phone

Same here!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] LondonGemini:
I tried using translate on ie9 and was useless. I will try chrome when I get home.

Can I ask which seller you bought it from and how long it took to get here?

Brando sent me 15 emails this morning to tell me that they have shipped my screen protector!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] xsaintzx:
Anyone could advice on which screen protector to get?

Brando, Skinomi, ZAGG or Martin Field.

I heard ZAGG has orange peel effect, how about others?

Martin Field has got good reputation but is it really worth the price?

Skinomi looks good but they don't ship to my country! E-mailed them though.
