Best Iphone 4 Screen Protector?

k20z3 · 02-06-2011, 04:19 PM

I get my Iphone 4 tomorrow and I will leave the protector that comes on the phone until then, but what is the best Screen Protector?

Zagg (I like but looks like you have to moisten the screen protector quite a bit)
BodyGaurdz?

Your thoughts!

k20z3 · 02-06-2011, 04:20 PM

Or Power Support?

k20z3 · 02-06-2011, 04:30 PM

The screen is glass you don't need a protector.

The screen has a rated hardness of 9, and I can confirm that. I managed to drop mine a good ten feet onto steel and concrete. Don't ask me how, because its a pretty stupid story, but the face and back didn't have a scratch from that fall. That said, I would look at an antiglare, if anything, because the screen is rather shiny. I have an invisible shield for that, and it has a nice balance of anti-glare and sharpness retention.

Had my 4 for about 6 months and it's still perfect without a protector. All of the protectors look like sh*t and take away from the use of the phone imo.

you may be lucky you didnt get a scratch but the thing will shatter

Boss's iphone 4 front glass shattered falling off the desk (about2.5 feet? 3 feet?)

To the OP:

So get a good anti glare protector.
Then pick up an otterbox case

+1 on the otterbox.

Good lord it's a phone, not a faberge egg!

I use a Zaggskin on the front and back with a bumper, and I think it improved the front feel, though it doesn't look great around the edges (some bubbles), but the texture doesn't show when the phone is on.

I glued a Rivet clip to the back skin, so I can clip my phone with almost nothing extra holding it.
