My sister and niece bought RAZR Maxx phones at the Verizon store and opted for screen protectors. The Verizon representative brought a pack out and put them on but not in the way I'm used to. He slapped it on in place, and after it was fully applied, pushed all of the bubbles out. I was dumbfounded because this never works for me! So I took the third protector since I have one minor scratch on my screen and applied it in the same manner at home. No bubbles! What the heck? But to be honest, this protector sucks in quality. It smudges up far to easily and is difficult to clean.

I want a Steinheil protector, but each time I've tried to apply one, I failed. I never did it as an all in one like I did this time. How do you properly apply these with no bubbles? I understand the humid bathroom approach, but before I spend money on these, I want to be able to do it right because $15 a pop isn't cheap.
 
Some protectors go on with the aid of water that way you can adjust it to the perfect spot before it sticks. You don't use a lot of water though maybe like one little spray

I learned that the hard way on my Thunderbolt. I over watered it and damaged the display. Whoops!

Agreed with the crap quality of the Verizon screen protectors. I hey smudges so easily with this screen protector and can't seem to get them off. Even with the cloth provided. I may try a zagg our whatever its called.

But, back to somewhat on topic, that's all i did with this protector. Slapped it on, then used a credit card to push the bubbles out. Only one little bubble but its off the screen so it doesn't bother me.

Is that bubble directly under the camera? That seems to be the common place and I took the protector off due to the easy smudges. Plus, the feel was so nasty...

No. In fact, there is a slot that is cut out where the front camera is. It's actually on the very top right corner of the screen, but just off of it.
