BodyGuardz HD Contour Screen Protector

[felloffthetruck]

Here are a couple of pictures of the Bodyguardz HD Contour on my S7 Edge.
The sides stuck down and it was case friendly as the top, bottom and corners were short.

I when through 100's of dollars looking for a screen protector for the S7 Edge and this was one of the best.

Think I'll pick one up for the Note 7 tomorrow.

Given this is a PET screen protector, does the s-pen leave marks on the protector after use?

It's $25.00 and I don't spending an extra $25. on my $850. phone. Tempered glass will not work on these curved screens.
I had the Bodyguardz HD Curved on my S7 edge and it worked great.

AT&T put a soft Zagg Invisible Shield HD on mine the day I bought it for $25. It wraps over the sides and top/bottom, then my iBlason cases's front frame snaps over it, keeps it in place nicely then the back of the case snaps onto that. Only problem is, it's soft material - I can already see marks in it from the S Pen writing marks. That's why I want tempered glass - I had that on both my Note 4 and Note 5's!

Ah that looks so much better then the Zagg screen protector. I think I will take a trip to AT&T tomorrow to see if my local store has any in stock. Thanks for the pictures!

Nope!

Here's a video of a guy installing it. Now too sure about his method but at lease you can see the actual protector.

Picked one this morning at our local AT&T store. I also liked the Pelican case for the Note 7 (did not purchase one).

Here's a picture of the Bodyguardz HD Contour and Samsung OEM Original screen protectors side by side. Notice how much shorter the Bodyguardz is (more case friendly). Hopefully I'll get a chance to try and install them tomorrow. Too tired tonight. :-\

I'm actually curious at how they're going to come out.

Keep us posted. Haven't found anything that works with my spigen case except the Verizon tempered glass which made me lose all sensitivity with the phone.

Thank you to both "Retinella" and "felloffthetruck" for the in-depth on the BodyGuardz HD Contour... I think I'm going to give it a try. My soft Zagg is already starting to lift on one side and every time I look across the face of the phone when it's blank and see all the pen marks, it drives me crazy. Got to give something else a try - I watched the video you posted "felloffthetruck" - looks pretty easy to install. I went to order it on Amazon and they were out of stock but they were also charging more than AT&T? I'll swing by AT&T tomorrow. Thanks again you two for the effort!

DID IT!

I stopped at my AT&T Store this afternoon and they had two left so I bought one, though I cheated because their "Screen Protector Specialist" Kathryn, happened to be on the floor so I had her put it on for me... God is she good (and quick)! Anyway, I got it home, pulled out my old D80 Nikon and took a few shots with my iBlason Armorbox case on it. The only place where you can see the edge of the BodyGuardz is at the right and left lower corners - no problem at all. Such a small radius is visible that it'll never get hooked on anything!. I've already used the s Pen and definitely didn't baby it - no marks so this material is much harder than the Zagg stuff by far, although more susceptible to fingerprints/smudges - a small trade-off! Thanks again to the folks in my previous post for bringing it to my attention!

So you like this one better than the Zagg? I have the Zagg HD dry install full body now, but really don't like all the marks that the spent leaves on it. Plus the edge to edge coverage really limits what cases can be used without peeling up the edges.

That's why I did it - my case seemed to cover the edges of the Zagg but one side was still lifting. The pen marks were awful... this Bodyguardz feels almost like tempered glass - other than fingerprints, it's sweet!

 

[felloffthetruck]

That looks sweet. Mine is still sitting at home waiting for me to install them.
I'll post some pictures if I ever get it done. :-\

 

[Jvazquez930]

U guys have convinced me to get the bodyguards version.

 

[dobo84]

This thread had me curious went out bought one and installed it my self like all protectors patience is a must. Lined it up went on with less bubbles then the official one from Samsung. The contour is perfect and tested with plenty of cases all no issues. Hoping it lasts wish they included more in the box for 25$

 

[JoBudden]

I picked one up today. Works great with the otterbox commuter case. I finally feel like my phone is protected! Thanks for the recommendation

 

[Kermy]

I also went and got one today and it's a go! I'm using it with a Ringke clear case and no lifting at all. If anything, I wish it was just a little bit bigger on the top and the sides. In any case, think I'm set on screen protector now.

 

[jfenton]

Can you actually wipe the fingerprint smudges off these without screwing them up?

 

[left4dead]

My $10 wet install screen protector looks great and works perfectly with touch sensitivity, s pen and my cases.

Who the hell spends $30 on a screen protector and a non glass one. Sheesh
