I need a screen protector expert?

mostlylisten · 02-05-09, 02:55 PM

My x51v screen literally wore out from useage. If someone who is familiar with screen protectors (I've never used one) could clue me in on brands too get and brands too avoid.

Are ebay protectors good. I like the price. Suggestions appreciated?

Pocket Solutions : (5 Star Rating) Google Checkout available.

Boxwave also sells then too.

I've tried many different kinds. Screenguardz are decent and very cheap but don't last super long. Boxwave makes real good ones but they're expensive. I used Invisible Shield and they are very good, very expensive and they grip your pen so it's a bit hard to use. None are perfect. I am using Screenguardz b/c they are 15 for $10.

I like Boxwave myself. You pay more up front, but they last several times longer than the less expensive ones. Mine usually last for 3 - 4 months per protector...and that's with daily use.

Ditto here. I used a Boxwave protector on my Axim X30H for 2 years and it's still looks like new. My new iPaq 211 sports one as well.

Well, I ordered from pocket solutions strictly on price. Hope they work out. 3 for 5 bucks felt it was worth a try.

I have tried them all and NuShield is my favorite. I use it a lot in dusty dirty conditions. Also, NO bubbles. Just a little work to install it and then it works great.

as a cheapo expert, I say go for the cheapest ones on ebay, they pay off after some months of usage (after a succesful application, it's been months and I didn't need to replace it with on of the other spares in the envelope)
