I currently have the crappy VZW protectors installed. Im looking to get one that covers the whole screen. I have seen some good reviews of the Clarivue and the SGP .

I have read some compaints about the cut out for the joystick on the Clarivue brand. I have not heard anything like this on the SGP ones though.

So Im looking for some confirmation on the cut out issue. Also does anyone have any pics of either one and both types, clear and anti-glare?
 
I got the Verizon one the other day and love it. All u need to cover is the touch screen. Why would you need to cover the whole front?

Because the whole front is high gloss and can be scratched also.
 
I'm using the Zagg protectors. So far so good. No issues using it with the VZW Silicone case or with the joystick.

I had the Zagg on a some devices and really did not like them. Im waiting on my Seidio case and battery.
 
Seidio is coming out with some protectors too...Qazme was hoping to get some soon and was planning to share the experience.

I use the Skinomi full frontal protector and have been more then happy with it. After the couple days they recommend for it to clear up, it really does, I don't even know its there anymore. As far as smoothness goes, it was a little tacky for the first 3 days or so, but it has smoothed out and is as smooth as the original screen.
 
Seidio has the "Ultimate Screen Protector". Not sure if they are out of not, I think they came out today and they are full front protectors.
 
Had Zagg and it was good. I use Swype, though, and it wasn't as smooth as I would have liked. Next, I tried Phantom Skinz. Took me three tries to get it installed clear. Love the feel and once I got it installed properly, it looks great. No complaints.
 
Zagg probably isn't the smoothest for sliding but I really like my Zagg protector. Lifetime warranty and it will never allow your screen to damage. I would suggest it and you can get the full body protector for them too.
 
I used Zagg, just because of the warranty. My girl actually bought some of the mirror ones off eBay. She paid about $18 for 2 of them, but it looks nice,no bubbles and super smooth.
 
Had the zagg but it isn't the best for sliding and also it developed nicks in the material more easily than hard screen protectors.

I am currently using a Seidio clear protector and love it. I may give their antiglare one a try but the last antiglare one I used just ruined the beautiful display.
 
I use the VZW protectors and would not consider any other for a very simple reason. I am the world's worst fumble fingers when trying to put one of these things on. I have been trying since whenever the first TREO came out and the stylus would dent the screen if you weren't careful. Every Verizon store has a SPPIOE (Screen Protector Put It On Expert). As long as you buy them there the "installation" is free. Have also found them to wear very well, no buckle and no peeling.
 
I'm using PhantomSkinz screen protector and a red verizon case.

Getting the screen protector on was a bit of a challenge (wet application), but I got it on finally. I can barely tell it's there. No difference in touch sensitivity.

code: SPRING25 might still work for 25% off.
 
I found the Verizon protectors started picking up a lot of skin oil and giving the screen a rainbow effect. Bought a Zagg over the weekend and it's smoothed out nicely.
 
I just got some mirrored screen protector off ebay, hopefully the'll be ok. I got 3 for 2.99 inc free shipping.
 
I use the Clarivue screen protector.

HTC Droid Incredible Screen Protector from Clarivue

I like it because its simply a static application and I didn't have to worry about liquids or anything. You can take it off and put it back on whenever you want. The packet comes with 2 protectors, which is a good thing, because the 1st one was wrecked in a fit of frustration.

In essence, its extremely difficult to get a perfect application. The 'clean environment' they suggest applying in doesn't exist in day-to-day life, so its near impossible to not have dust on the screen or protector itself (dust = bubbles). And the edges don't seem to be a perfect cut, so the application of the screen is typically crooked. I did finally get the 2nd protector on straight. I did have to keep peeling it up to use a piece of tape to get some dust out. But, now that its on, I like it. Durable and after 2 weeks, no corners coming up.
