I would recommend the Ghost Armor, also. You know, to make the decision harder for you :D Just got mine on this afternoon, and it's already super clear. There is the slight distortion like you would get from Zagg, but it's nowhere near as bad. It's pretty much unnoticeable unless the screen is off. Plus, it just feels amazing. It's super smooth. I switch screen protectors all the time because I like to try them all out, so I'll probably check out Realook next. This one is pretty awesome, though.
[HTC Rezound] Ravaloft:
Question about ghost armor.

I had one installed on my Bionic and got Verizon to replace it with a rezound. THink if I slap the bionic sticker on there I can get them to install the rezound one for the $5 labor charge?

I tried the boxwave antiglare screen protector and it does well. When it gets dirty you can rinse it off and reuse it.
[HTC Rezound] Rezound2012:
all i can say is don't buy the verizon ones, picked up a 3 pack of em at a verizon store when i picked up my phone, talk about horrible distortion, especially like other guy was saying with a white background, I ordered some zaggs off ebay but now I'm wondering if those are gonna suck from the sticky feeling others are talking about here,,,,bleh lol
[HTC Rezound] WasabiWa83:
The sticky feeling of Zagg is not terribly noticeable until you feel something like Ghost Armor on the phone or some of the other more smooth ones. I actually liked the Zagg for a long time. They are really good for fingerprints and stuff.
[HTC Rezound] Marine6680:
One thing I noticed with the Zagg style protectors. (adhesive wet install type)

The protector picks up color from whatever you keep it in most.

On my old MT4G I used a slip in leather case to keep the phone riding high in my pocket. The interior cloth was black. After a few months I took the protector off. (I had the full body + screen version) When I did, all the pieces had turned dark to light grey. I was amazed at how much brighter my screen looked after.

The rezound is too big to keep in a case in my pocket, so a screen protector was more vital for me. The realook ones do scratch easier so it does show a few light scratches from being in my pocket, but the screen itself is fine. The best thing I like about realook is that they are so clear and smooth that it looks and feels like the glass.
[HTC Rezound] bkerk25:
If anyone is looking for a really good CHEAP protector RND Power Solutions ultra crystal protectors on amazon are excellent. They are a bit smaller than the screen but this makes installation easier and, for me at least, makes having a case on less of a hassle as the screen protector does not bubble from pressure. Protectors are 5.99 for 3 pack not bad...

Honestly I find that the generic screen protector from HTCPedia is really nice and clear. No haze or distortion whatsoever. And it's a static cling type which is awesome for putting it on and taking it off and centering it up. Cheap too.
[HTC Rezound] HTGamingPC:
I'm using Halo clear screen protectors. Its as good as any other protector I've used. They are BY FAR the best value at $6 for 3 and I've tried a ton of different protectors in the past. I can't tell that its applied except that the screen is relatively fingerprint resistant.

They attach via static cling. They appear to be essentially the same as Seido or Steinheil protectors which I've used in the past. In fact, all of these static-typed protectors seem to be pretty much the same. I had a generic one on my OG Droid for 2 years with only miniscule scratches developing.

I find static typed protectors to be much easier to install as they tend to be stiffer, so you can hold them via the edges while applying. Bubbles come out with just a bit of pressure and its easy to remove dust with two pieces of scotch tape (one piece to pick up the protector and one to grab the dust underneath). You really shouldn't have dust issues if you install in the bathroom after a hot shower anyway.

I tried ZAGG on the Rezound and I hated it because of the orange peel, tacky feel and pain in the butt installation. There were subtle finger prints underneath the screen where I had to hold it during the install even after I washed my hands 3 times and wet my fingers with the install solution first. A fleck of dust under it was also there for good. You can't really re-apply ZAGGs since they stretch when you take them off and don't fit as well when you put them back. They're also way too expensive, IMO. For the cost of shipping one back to ZAGG to get a refund, you can almost buy 3 Halos.

An inch from your face?!? Who are you dude.... Mr. Magoo? Lol! J/K!
[HTC Rezound] tprime76:
My favorite, over the last 5 or 6 devices has been the boxwave crystal screen protectors. Screen protector gives it the feel like it doesn't have anything in it. The screen protector doesn't scratch. It goes on pretty easy. I won't buy a different one since I have been so happy with the boxwave ones.

[HTC Rezound] surfer2.3:
I also just upgraded to a Rezound after 2 years on my AMOLED Droid Incredible. My Incredible screen went commando over a year ago. When I picked up my Rezound 2 days ago the Verizon guy put one on. Sorry I can't tell you who made it but it's pretty good so far.
[HTC Rezound] pwnwolf117:
i ended up finding an invisible shield really cheap on ebay (none left) but on previous devices ive used bodyguardz and it worked really well, not nearly the rubber feel of zagg and didnt notice any orange peel either
[HTC Rezound] hngu7721:
I just installed my Clarivue screen protector and am extremely happy with the results. I've used Boxwave, and SGP Steinheil on my previous phones and I'd be hard pressed to see the difference between them and the Clarivue (which is much cheaper and includes 2)

Install was a breeze and i had it installed perfectly on my first attempt. No loss of sensitivity, and no discernible difference between bare glass and the protector.
[HTC Rezound] notetcetera:
How many people have the VZW anti-glare screen protectors? What do you think of them?

I'm thinking about getting the accessory bundle(Anyone know of any other accessory bundles with cases that will work the extended battery).
[HTC Rezound] rfarrah:
IMHO the Anti-glare protector was HORRIBLE. Couldn't stand it after 10 minutes. But, as always, YMMV.
[HTC Rezound] notetcetera:
Hm. Why's that?
[HTC Rezound] rfarrah:
Just seemed hard to see through, especially at an angle. When you have the best cell phone screen on the market - you want to SEE it, and maybe even show it off a little. (At least I do. :D )
[HTC Rezound] notetcetera:
i actually kinda like that, being able to keep my screen private that is. What screen proc are you using now, dude?
[HTC Rezound] mc_365:
The VZW anti-glare screen protector made my screen look like it was wet. It was horribly distorted. Why buy an HD device then cover the display with a opaque film that makes the resolution look about half as good. I don't need that much privacy and if the glare is that bad I'll duck inside for a second somewhere or just wait.
[HTC Rezound] drynyks:
I have used a bunch of different brands over several phones. I just bought and put on the Halo anti-glare and I like it a lot.
[HTC Rezound] awmobjects:
Anyone using XOSkins?
[HTC Rezound] notetcetera:
Ack. That's trash. Def. will NOT be buying that screen prot.

Nice. I'm going to look into this. Thanks for the heads.

Edit: Found these on Amazon for 7 bones shipped(12 reviews, all 5 stars). Ordering now !
[HTC Rezound] rfarrah:
Ghost Armor. I prefer Steinheil, but last time I checked it wasn't available for the Rezound.
[HTC Rezound] Taebom:
Halo anti glare ftw
[HTC Rezound] devilsadidas:
I have and really like the Skinomi screen protector. I like the deionized water application.... makes it much easier and sticks better. I have had many Zagg screens and I like the Skinomi better (zagg was way to textured). I had to peel it off and put it on my replacement rezound and its still flawless.
[HTC Rezound] tmushy:
I got the Halo clear ones and they are great. Kind of tricky to install, it seems like it was cut exactly to fit. Once you get it on you wont notice it on there. Iv had it on since the rezound came out and it still looks new.
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
Blargh, no Steinhall for the Rezound?

:(
[HTC Rezound] TypoCorrecto:
REALOOK Screen Protectors are good quality. It covers the entire face, with anti-glare and anti-fingerprint qualities...
[HTC Rezound] RockinHomes:
Amazon has a product from RND called "RND Power Solutions Superior Anti-Fingerprint Anti-Glare - Matte Finish Screen Protector / Guard for the HTC Rezound with lint cleaning cloth (3 Pack)" (I can't post the link because I'm new and don't have enough posts yet. Geez...

They are out of stock as I write this, but my guess is they'll come back in stock sooner than later being it's Amazon, and they are worth the wait. Mine cost $5.99 including shipping for a pack of 3. They go on super easy, if you use a flimsy credit card or even something thinner like a gift card to guide the plastic down. The feel of it is very "satiny", not sticky at all, and the screen has a matte finish, but not so matte that it takes much away from the Rezounds gorgeous screen. I haven't used anything else so far to compare it by, but for $2 each screen, you can't go wrong.
[HTC Rezound] eXecuter.bin:
To be very honest, screen protectors are the same more or less. Don't pay extra for overpriced advertising nonsense. Those cheap $1 ones on eBay from Chinese companies like Screen Guard works great, and they often comes with several variations too like matte, mirror, and privacy.
[HTC Rezound] tmushy:
The self promotion on this board is just hilarious lol
[HTC Rezound] hoboballer:
I just received this from SGP about them making a screen protector for the Rezound. I was thinking if we got enough people to sign up and express that they want the screen protector that they might make one.

"Thank you for contacting SGPstore.com Customer Service Department.

Hi, my name is Joseph from SGPstore.com.

As of now, we don’t have any definite plans to make the screen protectors for the HTC Rezound. However, if there is increased interest from our customers, we may change our production plans in the future. Please check our website for any updates time to time.

If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact us again."
[HTC Rezound] Taebom:
I love the halo brand screen protectors, i have the anti fingerprint ones now. I was thinking about trying the clear ones from Halo and was wondering if anyone has tried them. Thanks
[HTC Rezound] HTGamingPC:
Halo clear is great. Can't go wrong for the price.
[HTC Rezound] hoboballer:
What do people prefer Halo screen protectors or Realook? Which is better fitting to the phone?
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
I just got a pack of Halos and these things fit like sh*t. They appear to be cut slightly diagonal so they drape over the edge of the phone, cause it to not seal.
[HTC Rezound] Taebom:
Sucks cuz mine fit perfect, no draping. Fits like a glove for me.
[HTC Rezound] maximus20895:
I just tried the realook one and it was litteraly impossible to get it one without tons of bubbles. I even did it in the bathroom with the shower running, took my shirt off, sprayed water, washed my hands, used the cloth etc etc etc.

I don't know what it is, if it's the product being defective or what, but it was horrible.
[HTC Rezound] jcdrummr:
I had the Seidio USG on my last Rez and I loved it! Fit was fine, screen looked great, no noticeable increase in drag from glass. But when I got my warranty replacement, I figured I'd redo the research to find the best option.

The realooks sound great by the reviews, but can anyone comment on whether there are camera or proximity cutouts? It doesn't look like it on the Amazon listing. If not, does this affect the functionality of either?
[HTC Rezound] maximus20895:
On the Realook, do you peel number 1 or 2 first, because I peeled number 1 since it's number 1.. and stuck that side to the phone and it still had bubbles all over with zero chance of coming out. As of right now, these screen protectors are garbage.
[HTC Rezound] jjintn:
Just got some of the Halo screen protectors mentioned earlier in the thread... So far so good, super easy to put on and can't beat the price. I had a Phantom Skinz on my Incredible, and it was a royal pain to put on, plus couldn't stand the tacky feel it had. I don't even notice the Halo on the Rezound.
[HTC Rezound] mintcookies:
I have the ReaLook on mine, doesnt seem to cause any problems with front camera or proximity sensor.

As for the 1-2 sticker side peel off, I think the side with "2" is supposed to be against the screen. I accidentally put the wrong side against the screen at first (instructions were kinda confusing) and had a bunch of bubbles that I couldnt get rid of. I just peeled it off and washed the plastic down, then reapplied correctly and use a credit card covered with a microfiber cloth to squeegee out the water/bubbles trapped underneath. If you're concerned about water damage, the microfiber cloth should soak up any water that is forced out between the glass and plastic screen protector, it also protects the screen protector from scratches as your pressing the credit card across the surface.
[HTC Rezound] maximus20895:
You put water on the screen before applying?
[HTC Rezound] mintcookies:
generally I dont, but like I said, I put the wrong side against the screen at first (the side with the #2 sticker is supposed to go against the screen. I went with the logic side #1 should be first... but that didnt work out) so i had to peel the protector off and rinse it down (wash off any oils from fingers and such). Regardless, there were only a few small drops of water on the screen protector. I didnt wipe it with anything cause I didnt want lint clinging to it.

I still had some tiny debris stuck in between so I used a 2 pieces of tape: one to lift a section of the screen protector up, and the other to slide underneath and grab the debris and pull it out. Took about 5 mins to get all the lint particles out and now I have a flawless screen. Been using it for about a month now. no peeling or anything.
[HTC Rezound] z0mghii:
I just bought these and they look super grainy when the screen is showing something that's white. They feel great but the screen protector didn't really fit all the way.
[HTC Rezound] ruvort:
Thank you guys for sharing :-) threads like these need stickied
[HTC Rezound] krelvinaz:
I bought a Halo Screen Protector Film Invisible for my Rezound, but I never installed it, still on my desk in its envelope. Don't really think I am that overly protective of my phone but I haven't used a screen protector now for years (Dinc before the Rezound)... I pocket the phone screen to the thigh rather than use a holster and am careful what I put on top of the phone when it is laying on a table.

I do take care of my equipment though... Living in the desert, it is hot, dry and dusty so you have to be a little careful when cleaning things to make sure there is no grit.

I do use a case as I am more worried about wearing from normal use on the bottom and sides of the phone and some protection from drops. My Dinc looks brand new and I got it when they first came out.

My Rezound.. No scratches at all.
[HTC Rezound] ruvort:
Thank you for the input sir :-)

I sent you a PM btw.
[HTC Rezound] Kravur:
+1 these. This is what I use.
[HTC Rezound] craigsdocks:
I have a Realook, had it on about a month, great screen protector.

Fits Exact, I mean exact, so you need to line these up perfect, it covers every bit of the screen

I had a Steinheil crystal clear on my Incredible and this one seems exactly the same as those, which were awesome, but Steinheil doesn't make them for the Rezound so I got a Realook

Cant see the protector on the phone, cant feel it either, so all is well, seems like its naked too me

Note: remember the side with tab 2 on the Realook goes toward the glass, kind of confusing, these go on dry no water needed
[HTC Rezound] johnwaynegacy:
Well, I got my first hairline scratch today. I will be ordering a new digitizer. Maybe I will order 3 or 4 and just swap them out when I get scratches. So basically the best screen protector for me will be having extra digitizers. :confused:
[HTC Rezound] rfarrah:
Or just buying a screen protector? :cool:
[HTC Rezound] johnwaynegacy:

[HTC Rezound] jemadar:
I scratched my rezound the day I got it and since have been trying to find a good screen protector for it. I came from two phones both containing gorilla glass and never had to think much about screen protectors so this was a new territory for me. I thought I could just use the protector that came with my Otterbox commuter and all would be good. Well never having applied a screen protector before I found out what a nightmare dust can be. I couldnt stand the bubbles from the dust and removed it out of frustration. I then went down to my local verizon store and purchased a 3 pack of the VZW Rezound screen protectors - clear. It took 3 tries but eventually I managed to get one on that had 0 bubbles from dust and all was good.

I was proud of my newly installed screen protector ( note I killed 3 trying to install them not knowing what I was doing ) and slid my phone into my pocket knowing now I did not have to worry. One day later I look down at my phone and there are scratches all over the screen protector and two very large smudges which are called "burn" marks I think. All these frustrations was honestly making me hate my phone. I never had to worry about stupid scratches before and I started using my work phone over my personal just because of this. I looked around this forum and decided to give the Realook Crystal Clear's a try.

I received my Realook's two days ago and immediately removed my burned VZW protector so I could install my new one. Installation was a nightmare. I read that using tape can really help in removing dust and reapplying the protector incase you don't place it just right. Realook recognized the installation difficulty and actually gives you two pieces of tape in the package for such a situation. It took me probably about 20-30 minutes to get the screen protector sized just right on the Rezounds screen. If it's off just the slightest bit (because of its tight fit) then the edges will bubble up and there is no way to make it lie completely flush against the screen. After using my provided tape 10+ times to re align the protector I finally found the perfect fit.... but I had about 8 pieces of dust under my protector. Using the two pieces of tape, pulling back the protector slightly and using the second piece of tape to remove the dust made the installation finally perfect.

In the end I highly recommend the Realook Crystal Clear. The touch is much smoother than the VZW protectors and is pretty comparible to glass. You can't tell the protector is there at all on my Rezound, and after two days of work in my pocket, it still has 0 scratches or burn marks. Installation is a pita but my piece of mind with my phone has made it my daily go to phone again :D
[HTC Rezound] randpost:
I just go to the mall and have my screen protectors installed at a ghost armor kiosk. high quality screen protector that's install perfectly every time. Comes with lifetime warranty and they replace screen protectors for something as little as a scratch on protector. Cost 20.00 installed at the location I go to, but its worth it.
[HTC Rezound] mighty_markus12:
right now i have a invisible shield on but it's too cloudy and scratches easy. im about to buy a phantom skinz.
[HTC Rezound] alphabets:
this is what i went with after reading some posts similar to yours. i was also a big steinhil fan as was bummed when i saw they werent making them for the rezound. got a 2-pack of realook's on ebay for $12 shipped. not bad.
[HTC Rezound] Thadrow:
Anyone use zaggs max protection ? Ordered but seeing if anyone has a input. How is it over time
[HTC Rezound] mc_365:
and then its only $5 to replace on the same phone for any reason.

So through 2 years (cant afford the latest greatest) I go through 6 or so protectors. And they do all the work.

I have installed protectors myself, but I like the ghost armor, and they pretty much cost the same if you order them and do it yourself as if you go to the kiosk.

A Plus to me is Ghost Armor is the rubber type protector so the film heals itself from minor scratches.
[HTC Rezound] randpost:
Exactly. I tried the rest and these are the best especially when including install. I get my screen protectors replaced for free though when needed. They do heal small to minor scuffs and scratches. Excellent stuff.
[HTC Rezound] 05Warrior:
Never used one and I have never had a problem.
[HTC Rezound] killahrey:
I always buy the cheapest ones I can fine on eBay.

Not because I'm cheap, I still end up spending about $20 for 20+ protectors.

They usually last me a few months and then I switch it out. I don't have a problem switching them out, I have years of doing it and now everyone comes to me to install screen protectors. Lol.
[HTC Rezound] cjsteier:
I go to the mall as well and get it from Tricked Out Accessories. Same deal 20 dollars and a lifetime warranty. Also if I give the phone away the warranty stays with it so whoever has the phone is protected for the life of the phone. I can even take the protector off and take it to the kiosk if I have to replace my phone for whatever reason and same deal. I have been doing this for three generations of my phones.
[HTC Rezound] alphabets:
i have always used steinhil's on my phones so i was sad to see they do not make a screen protector for the Rezound. after a little research i found people saying the "Realook" makes a protector very similar to Steinhil ultra crystals. So i bougth them and i think they may actually be even nicer than the steinhil!!! just search for Realook, only $12 shipped for 2! i could not be happier. the fit is perfect and exact, and you have no clue there is even a protector on. no clue. great product!
[HTC Rezound] pmania:
Honestly in just using the one you can but at Verizon for like 4.99. You get 2 and this one has lasted me since febuary so far. Can't even tell its there if you do it right.
[HTC Rezound] Watercycle:
My best screen protector came from verizon, a matte one for X2 :p

I'm happy I payed like $15 for 2; being a year later and having no reason to switch out the first.

But that was a pentile qhd, now your talking about 720p, matte would be an insult :eek: so this time around realook ultra clear seems to be the more reasonable choice, it's not gorilla glass so not worth the risk of no screen protector.

Hopefully the crystal clear protectors don't grip your finger like the screen does, that was a reason matte got picked before.
[HTC Rezound] unklsckness:
I have used Zagg on my Fasinate and Rezound. I love them. They stick like tint but are pricey. I have heard good things about Ghost Armor. I have to replaced once on each device, there is Zagg stand in mall close by. They charge the replacement cost for shipping and will put it on free, the replacement cost is like 6-8 bucks to. It is pain to put on with no bubbles but, if you can put tint on then you are golden.
