Hi peeps,

I'm new here, so bare with me :p

I've brought this Expert Shield screen protector and before I apply it I just wanted to know if anyone has had experience with them?

I got it cause I friend bought one and she said it was amazing but I wanted some expert advise before I applied it.

Thanks :)

No I have never used it but if your friend recommend it and you see it on their device, Apply it and see how it works yourself.

I haven't seen this particular screen protector either, but nothing beat the "glass" screen protectors that's currently on the market. I use Zagg GLASS....

I've used many screen protectors but have never run into the one you are showing. I can say that most screen protectors are "good". There isn't much to them and they will all serve their purpose without problems. The main difference is marketing hype, price and some are installed wet and others dry. I can't say that the most expensive Zagg is any better than the least expensive off brand.

I can....from trial and error over many years, it seems that the cheaper screen protectors are gritty, peel away very easy and don't last long. this has been my experience anyway. It does make a difference. You get what you pay for.

That glass is most likely the best protection out right now for the iPhone, I got mine as soon as it came out and never looked back at any other screen protector i've previously used

I stopped by Best Buy today to pick mine up and I couldn't be any happier. It feels so natural and they make the installation process a breeze! Believe it or not, the natural feel even enables you to type a little faster than most of the normal film screen protectors. It's just perfect in every way, which I've never thought about a screen protector before. My last one was just a normal dry-apply one but was quite well made and I was really fond of it, but Zagg simply knocked it out of the park with this one.

I absolutely love hearing how much people are loving their new Glass screen protectors. I must say, before Glass, my kiosk's sales weren't increasing as much as they used to, but since they released the Glass, I'm having line-ups at my kiosk again. It's hard to keep it in stock.

Oofa, if you go on YouTube there's lots of videos comparing the strength of ZAGG's invisibleSHIELD's to other companies and you'll see the difference right away. I can understand people being frustrated with the invisibleSHIELD as it can peel easily or bubble if it's not properly installed but once properly installed, it should last much longer than the average screen protector. Just my 2 cents ;)

There are a lot of great tempered glass solutions. BodyGuardz, Spigen, zNitro, and yes, now Zagg too...just to name a few.

I'd always go with Zagg, I've been using their screen protectors and full body coverage on all my devices since 2008!

Other than the quality, the customer service also stands out. I bought some Zagg Buds, and they arrived faulty, it was easy to speak to someone and a replacement was shipped out pronto.
