Title: Which screen protector do you use?
Post by: newkid4si on May 02, 2012, 10:30:36 PM
And if you had to replace it, would you buy the same or a different brand?

Yes.. I would use the screenpatronus again...

I found it easier to work with than the Zagg... Not as sticky...and half the price...

I've got a Zagg on my 778 and 798.

I choose that brand from user on a HB forum.
A little pricey, but the product does it's job.
And super easy to install, like all screen protectors if you use
the good technique.

For my 1197, I've got the Lexnard true vue anti-glare protector.
It's a little tricky to install without getting air bubbles under it.
It's very good, I would buy it again.

The best way to not have air bubbles, and it's easy since our units are waterproof, is to put the unit horizontally and make a pool of water on the screen before putting the protector.

And make sure you have pre-cleaned the unit screen thoroughly and dried with a lint-free cloth or paper.
Myself, I use wipes made for cleaning lenses.

It's only a 10 minutes job and works like a charm every time!

Thanks to all that responded. Doesn't appear to be a dominate player.

ITGEEK-- Being that one of the main complaints about our units is the readability
              in direct sunlight; do you think the Lexnard anti-glare makes this better?

newkid4si:
I definitely think it makes it better.
I also have a Team Waters plastic sun shield.
This hangs over the top and sides of the unit, to help
block the sun.

These accessories compliment each other nicely.
