i bought one from best buy that installed it for me, she didn't do a good job at first but the thing is, she kept doing it until it was perfect. i've watched her screw up on other phones, she simply took it off and opened another box and used that one. if i bought another one i probably would just let her do it, at least i know at the end it would be perfect. but i won't get another one, messes with screen clarity. oh wait no ranting :rolleyes:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vioalas:
LOL! Thanks for you input. And when I mean ranting, a few people just kept arguing back and forth about if a phone needs a screen protector or not.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] KitF:
Is the One X's screen oleophobic? if not, I think I'll end up getting a protector
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vioalas:
Yes, it should be. Gorilla glass coats all the screens now, says it on their site.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] cy88:
Ordered one of these, will post pictures when arrive: http://www.skinomi.com/sk10854-htc-one-x-brushed-aluminum-skin-protector.html

Be wary of those thin strips around the rounded edges. Those things can be impossible to line up. Please post pictures when you have it installed!

After using these SGP screen protectors, I actually feel guilty selling the ones in my store.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] expertzero1:
ok dont buy the sgp ones, it didnt fit at all, so much space on the side lol... So im just using it as a temp one until a new one comes (below)

the skinomi dry tech works great, but alot of bubles, plus i messed up i forgot to take off the little micro cloth off the phone when i put it on LOL.. smh so i had to throw it away..

But it fits great, i bought a wet one from skinomi should be here soon!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] aimetti:
if you guys want a wet application protector get a xoskin , they are by far the best
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] MWilt:
I bought bot the wet and dry skinomi versions..put the wet apply one on this morning and it went on pretty good.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] GrandAdmiral:
Yeah, I got the Skinomi wet apply. Got here the same day as the phone. It was the first time I put one on myself (used to go to Best Buy). So I tested it on my gf's Inspire first lol. Did a great job once it dried up. Fits damn well and has a great feel to it. Plus, it's cheaper than Zagg.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JamesR913:
Anyone else have trouble with installing their zagg screen protector? I couldn't seem to get the left edge lined up just right.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ricktat:
How is the Skinomi dry fit? I have the wet one and it still bubbles up on the edges. It's like it not sticking on the edges due to stretching it for exact fit or something.

Or anyone have a dry of any brand that fits great?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Artimus009:
I bought the skinomi wet and the sgp oliofobic too...the sgp feels great and with an otterbox its a non issue that it doesn't go all the say to the sides.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] GrandAdmiral:
From what I've read the dry fit doesn't fit the edges correctly. I thought I saw someone post this earlier in this thread.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] asjdwf:
case-mate htc one x/xl tough case....will it fit?

Just as the title says, will it fit my ATT HTC One X? Just bought it hoping it will. Thank you all for your replies.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] verks:
I bought this in advance. It fits but not well. It is a little tight. I think I'm sending it back. I bought the Speck grip case from att.

As far as screen protectors I got the Invisible Shield Dry. It covers both sides well. It does cover the whole screen.

I also bought the SGP and was mad it only covered the middle.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Maroon Mushroom:
Just ordered the SGP Ultra Fine.

I've tried every other brand of screen protector and I'm not going back.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] truciet:
Yea same here. I've always used SGP.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ricktat:
There are 3 options that you have for screen protectors and they are all bad.

1) Wet one. Fine but most don't like the rubber feel and the edges may still curl up ...especially if you use a tight fitting case.

2) Any type of dry near full fitting. It will not cover the entire glass and it will still bubble on the edges if it is larger than the actual display area.(I tried to cut the top edges of one and all I found was that it still kept bubbling just at the new cut. The more you trim...bubbling area moves too. The screen curve is everywhere except for the dislplay area.)

3) Dry that only fits on display area.(worst looking) but the only one that will not bubble...(I think case mate is one that I saw yesterday like this)

Also the SGP dry version takes the best/worst of 2/3.. On the sides its the width of the display... At the top and bottom it extends further.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mrvirginia:
yep, got the skinomi on perfectly last night and everything was cleared up by today but i'm really hating the feel of it the more i use it :/
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] truciet:
I always stay away from those type...

It ruins the phone's display, it feels like rubber, and it'll turn yellowish brown overtime.

It does protect the heck out of it though. I prefer SGP even with the edges shortened. The LCD itself is protected 100% too.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] centex99:
Can you post some pics of this installed?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mrvirginia:
i might switch it up to the SGP Oleo if i have problems with a case working with the skinomi. people have said that it will pull it up because it fits so well on the edges. waiting to see photos of the Ballistic Shell Gel that someone around here has ordered. that case looks so slick on the backside. hoping the front is just as nice.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ricktat:
My screen protector OCD is drving me nuts.

I had the Skinomi wet as mentioned.. hated it... and I should kave known that.

Currently have the ATT Ifrogz version. Fit is pretty close to the SGP but is anti-glare. I didnt want to get it but I wanted that Skinomi off.

I want to just buy the SGP and deal with the edges but on Amazon the $13.99 version isnt on 2-day but the $15.99 fine(that I dont want) is

$13.99 is alot to pay for something that might take a week to come in and by that time someone else will have a 2 day shipper that works better.. plus still fits bad too

Please OCD.. go away
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mrvirginia:
it's not OCD mate. i'm sure a lot of people here can agree with your entire post, including myself. i think it not fitting the edges is quite tacky. not sure why manufacturers decided to come up with unique screen ideas to add some "flare" to their phones. why can't we just have a nice flat piece of glass??? causes so many problems with screen protectors.

and i won't keep it bare. i got a scratch on the top of my GNex somehow and the first HOX i had i managed to get a very light hairline scratch on the bottom right corner within 2 days :eek: naked is not an option. somehow sand, i suppose, is getting into my pocket.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] coolren:
i feel the same way. they seem to interfere with swiping for me.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Bigjim1488:
IF your going with Zagg make sure to get the HD. It has much less of that orange peel texture
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
Are zagg screen protectors okay for swiping? Or should I just buy another brand?

Sent from my HTC One X
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] joshuaadude:
I am going to get one of these http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/ie/p_htc_item.aspx?i=229874&phone=229814 for my case, so I am only looking for a screen protector rather than a full body one.

I havent been a big fan of screen protectors for all the reasons you guys have listed above, but I do plan on investing in one for my One X if I can find a good one. From what I can tell on the subforums, it seems like the skinomi one is the most popular.

My biggest gripe about screen protectors is the fingerprint smudging. Are there any screens that wont leave fingerprint marks? I dont mind matte screens but I'd like to hear from users first.

---------- Post added at 02:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:01 AM ----------

my friend installed zagg on his Samsung Galaxy S2 and he HATED it with swype. He said it felt like there was a lot of resistance because of the rubbery texture. He did get used to it after a few months of use though...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jimz360:
I just installed the skinomi wet app screen protector and im not impressed, the smears underneath look horrible although need to leave it for another 11 hours apparently, but worse are the rounded edges of the One X's screen, both sides are slightly raised from the screen and stick out like a sore thumb! Friggin ugly! Waste of money IMHO, do they do refunds?

---------- Post added at 01:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:24 PM ----------

Ahh i just ripped it off, pretty pissed now, paid £10 for a lint free cloth and spray:mad:! It looked ugly where it hadn't stuck down on the edges about 1/2 a mm on the left and right side and was unbearable to look at, looked like bits of dust had already started collecting under there so not gonna bother waiting 12 hours to see if it gets better coz it obviously wont!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mrvirginia:
wow sorry you had such a bad experience with it mate. i got mine on perfectly and everything was dried up within 8hrs.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] MWilt:
That weird, my skinomi was the only screen protector I've ever put on that went perfect.

You really do need to let it dry a little before the edges will stick and mine looked horrible for about a day until it completely dried.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ealvinito:
Personally don't think you need one. I've never been a fan of screen protectors. On the back she didn't scratch the camera. ;)

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] lessthanzach:
I installed the zagg hd wet install from best buy yesterday and I'm totally happy with it. It covers bottom to top well but stays away from the left right edges. I use the swype feature of the stock keyboard and there is very little resistance.. I think the less orange peelythe texture the better the swype is. And finger prints don't show up bad either.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mrvirginia:
you'll change your mind about this after you get a scratch i'm betting. exchanged my first HOX after just 2 days because of the volume rocker. even though i knew i was exchanging it, i still treated it like i wasn't and i ended up with a rather long hairline scratch on the bottom right side. that's the quickest i've ever scratched glass on a phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] phishie:
Haha I feel like a fool, I had no idea the HTC keyboard did swype. I was a big fan of this keyboard before, now I love it.

---------- Post added at 02:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:48 PM ----------

What was wrong with your volume rocker?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jason.hamilton:
I ordered the Armorsuit wet apply screen protector off amazon. Had them for my skyrocket and OGs SGSII. Should arrive tomorrow.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] lilhyper:
I applied the SGP ultra oleophobic cover just now on mine. I used ZAGG for my last phone, liked it quite a bit but felt like it gets too oily and it has the orange-peel effect.

SGP is super crystal clear, beautiful, doesn't attract finger prints. The only downside is that it does NOT cover the entire screen. It covers the entire part that lights up, but leaves a good 4mm at either side of the screen. It doesn't bug me but I would prefer that it cover the entire thing.

It still has a little bit of that tacky dry feeling to touch. It definitely does not feel like glass that you're touching. However, the rubbery feeling isn't nearly as much as that of ZAGG's wet apply cover.

Overall a beautiful screen.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] akvtiger:
Can you take a pic of the screen protector? I just received the Seidio and it doesn't cover the menu buttons and it's driving me nuts!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ricktat:
If you look at the other HTC one X forum in this same type of thread.. Someone has picks of it near the end.

Also is your Seidio a rectangle shape that only cover the display part of the screen?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] akvtiger:
Yes and I hate it! You have a lip when moving from the menu button area to the actual display area. I had the SGP on my Thunderbolt and it was a perfect fit.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] cy88:
My skinomi skin arrived, I ordered the full body brushed aluminum one because it's only a few dollars more. Never a fan of full body skin because it's tough to make a perfect application. It's the same story here, there are too many flaws that I'll probably end up removing it.

Screen protector just applied, much less of an orange peel compared to the SGP Flex. Will wait a week for it to cure:

Full body skin - The skin is made for International HOX, the pogo ports cut out are off. Had to cut open a bit more to expose the 5th dot. The corners are pretty badly applied:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sabesh:
Looks great! Can't wait to apply mine.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] lilhyper:
I cannot because, well, my HOX is my only camera at the moment. However, it does cover the menu buttons. From top to bottom it covers the entire screen, maybe w/ <1mm edge. It covers from above the AT&T logo to below the menu buttons. The issue is that there is about a 4mm distance on either side of the screen; laterally it covers basically only the part that lights up plus about 1mm.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] n19htmare:
Yuck!

I can understand applying these "stretchy" type of films on the exterior such as sides and backs but on the Screen? YUCK!

I'm talking about invisishield, Skinomi, SGP etc. They all use similar material that not only gives off the orange peel texture, but also adds resistance to your fingers as it is a "stretchy rubbery material". ESPECIALLY when you wash your hands and there's no oil on your fingers.

You have this BEAUTIFUL screen, a curved gorilla glass that is SMOOTH and your fingers flow fluently over the glass without hesitation ..................... and then you add these yucky protectors.

NOT only do they cost a ton, but they are counter productive (even $8 for one is a RIP-OFF).

I think the protectors mentioned above deserve another yuck so YUCK.

I however do recommend them for the back because they stick well to curves and corners. I would NEVER use those type on the screen.

If you do want to protect your screen, you're better off getting the plastic ones on ebay. The ones that are CLEAR and have no peel, and offer similar feel as glass when applied. They're so cheap you can change it every few weeks.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/6x-C-Skins-...ccessories&hash=item1c268f2c21#ht_1874wt_1396 these. get 12 and change it every month if you want, that's $4 for year supply. I've had experience with similar ones for different phones. they work extremely well.

Hint: Apply them (or any protector) in the bathroom with hot shower on (don't stand under the water lol). The steam in the bathroom helps settle the flying specs that might get trapped under the screen.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] cy88:
Personal preferences. I don't like screen protectors that doesn't even fit the screen due to the curvature of it. Protectors that leaves a gap in the edge? yuck.

The Skinomi is actually very good. SGP and invisible shield is a fail IMO. However, I still prefer that over a protector that leaves a gap. The picture I post shows it still in curing process, it'll appear much clearer after a week. Perhaps you should try before you cry :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] n19htmare:
I prefer no protector or case. It's a great looking device with a great feel. I plan on leaving it that way.

My phones always stay in pristine condition without protectors and cases. Personal preference like you said. Only you know what type of a user you are and what you need to protect your investments. Others, like you and I, can only offer advice.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] side808:
Are these phones prone to micro scratches?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] n19htmare:
If you mean swirls etc, I've never noticed them on any of my gorilla equipped phones.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] expertzero1:
i put on the skinomis earlier, i forgot which side i was suppose to to be on the scree, so i just put the liquid and placed a side on the screen lol. Shopefully i picked the right side
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] cy88:
Yup, and that's the sole reason I put protectors on. Had them on all my gorilla glass phones and it's known. :(
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Suprasb:
After trying many different screen protectos (Skinomi, SGP oleo-phobic, generic plastic, and ATT matte finish, and not being happy with any of them, I decided to give Dynaflo Liquid Armor a try, and so far, I'm pretty impressed. I haven't dropped it, as I'm really careful with my phones, but you just can't beat the feel of the glass on this phone. With the liquid armor coating, the glass feels exactly the same as the bare glass. I've been using it for a few days, and I've applied 2 coats, so far the glass is flawless.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ForcedZucchini:
I bought the Zagg invisibiesheild, It's actually pretty clear, no real orange peel. But the screen isn't as smooth to touch
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] thatg:
Wait what's this. I've been using an eBay screen protector but it's too big, lifts up on all the edges. I was getting ready to get the zagg HD but it looks like that's cut short and doesn't cover the whole screen like many other screen protectors. Is there one that covers the whole screen and still feels like glass, doesn't get finger prints
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] joshua54:
Just got my bodyguards in today:) went on very nicely it covers just about the whole phone..there r strips for side and top and even where ear speaker is and bottom lol
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Suprasb:
It's actually a liquid nano coating that you apply via sprayer, and microfiber cloth. Let it sit overnight, buff it lightly in the morning and good to go. YouTube it for test vids.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jshamoon:
If you haven't used a Skinomi product before, I HIGHLY recommend it. The protectors are SUPER smooth, almost as if no shield was on. It may not be as thick/durable as Zagg's Invisishield, but if you're looking for a quality product with the slickest of faces, go with Skinomi.

Oh, did I mention, it's only $0.99 on Amazon +$2.95 shipping!!!

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] joshuaadude:
Just installed my Skinomi. Gonna post a product review to direct some of the traffic since this thread is getting fat.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] lsquare:
I stopped buying Martin Fields a long time ago. They never fit properly and there's always a huge gap between the screen and the edge. Fortunately for me returning was easy because for some bizarre reason whenever I need a screen protector I was in Hong Kong. They were really professional with refunding to me and apologized for the bad fit. I even showed it to them to prove my point. Bottom line is that those guys need to do a better job cutting their screen protectors. They use to produce top notch stuff, but now I don't buy from them anymore.

---------- Post added at 03:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:10 AM ----------

Is it a perfect fit? Do they have a crystal version and not an anti-glare?

---------- Post added at 03:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:11 AM ----------

I don't see Skinomi for the One X on eBay. I don't think Amazon.com ship internationally.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] cy88:
Skinomi is perfect fit. When you apply it, you'll see the sides longer than the screen is. You'll just need to rub them down with your fingers or the rubber sponge to make it stick. Once it's down, it'll stay down nicely.

My Skinomi is curing up very nicely!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zmanw330:
I got some cheapo screen protectors on eBay too. unfortunately like the rest they are too big or w/e so there's a gap around the edge. I forgot when i ordered them the day i got it that the (awesome) screen is curved.

Got 6 for $.99 tho with free shipping so cant complain haha
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] beeroatsnp90x:
Sometimes its quality not quantity. I really love the screen of the HTC One X. Skinomi seems to be the best one that will not reduce the screen clarity. I like the smooth feel of matte screen protectors like sgp ultra fine, but it will reduce clarity. Zagg is another wet apply skin but I hear it has the orange peel effect and is not smooth. The verdict is skinomi.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] GrandAdmiral:
Totally agree/ I was a die-hard Zagg fan, even with the peel feel because I wasn't sure about the competitors out there. Man, am I happy I tried the Skinomi. It's wonderful. No peel feel at all. You barely notice it's there and it fits the HOX perfectly.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Yup. I'll take one good screen protector over 6 crappy ones, any day. The high quality ones (like Skinomi) last a long time, so there is no reason to buy several of them at a time. I've had the same Bodyguardz on my Desire Z for over a year, and a Skinomi on my Flyer tablet since June, and both are still looking great.

ZAGG InvisibleShield HD

Just got the ZAGG HD installed on my HOX yesterday and it's mostly cured. The texture and clarity is SO much better than the InvisibleShield I had on my HTC Aria. Responsiveness is a LITTLE laggy but nothing that really annoys me at this point and I'm hoping that'll clear up once it cures more.

However, I'm not too enthusiastic about this "case friendly" design. The side edges are fine and come flush with where most cases would probably come to. The major negative is that it doesn't even cover the glass surface completely at the bottom. Most cases (including the BasalCase that I have) are focused on being low profile and not encroaching too much on the front of the phone so as to not hamper the awesome design. So most likely you'll be like me and be left with this gap between the edge of the protector and the case. Any case would easily have been able to cover the edge and maintain a more seamless surface if they had just made the darn thing a 1/8" longer.

Everyone has been raving about Skinomi so I'll probably check that out once this invisibleshield wears out.

zagg hd

i'm not usually a fan of zagg screen protectors, but I just had bb install a zagg HD on my one x. I must say, major improvement over the old ones!

not nearly as grippy, 80% less orange peel, very clear. can hardly tell its there.:D
