I own this : Amazon.com: Case-Mate HTC Incredible S Screen Protector (2-pack: Electronics

I have it since I've had the phone(1 1/2 weeks now). It doesn't have the camera cut out though.

I'm looking for a matte finish screen protector now and one that has the front camera cut out. Mine keeps too much fingertip oils. Comes with the gloss finish of screen protectors.

How many have bought a matte finish one for our Dinc2? If you got a link to some vendor, please add that too. I would greatly appreciate it.
 
I bought the ones from Verizon when I ordered my phone because I get a discount on everything they sell and it just covers the screen and nothing else, perfect for what I needed but I got a hair caught under it somehow and it looks like ****. Took the temp protector off the phone, wiped it clean and applied and still got stuff between the two. Works awesome though, haven't even used the phone without it except at the store and I don't even notice it

I assume this is what you got? https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...PS://www.verizon.com/products/&token=VjZftq2o

But then they have this https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...PS://www.verizon.com/products/&token=VjZftq2o

Don't you get all kinds of dust and hair trapped near the edge of the protector near the top of it? I see that it only covers the actual screen and not the entire glass.

Are they gloss or matte finish?

I got the anti glare anti scratch, nothing really gets caught on the edges, I'm gonna use another one and see if I do it better but they have an alignment cover that you peel off after, it's really a smart design

an alignment cover? oh I get it. Sorry. End of my shift so the brain is starting to sleep on me.

I assume anti glare in VZW speak is 'matte' finish seeing how matte eliminates glare. Hmm. I may check this out when I get back to the states.

Thanks 98 and Frankspin
 
I have the matte screen protector for my Droid 2 Global. It cuts glare and doesn't hold as many smudges. However, the screen doesn't look as crisp or clear. I'm looking to switch to a glossy screen cover. Anyone else feel the same?
 
Interesting, might have to check this out.

Has anyone tried the privacy screen? I found one on Amazon.
 
I actually found some "anti-glare" protectors on amazon. I was using the wrong search words. The ones I found cover the entire glass not just the screen like the verizon versions do. It does have the cut out for the front facing camera too.

I may pick one up when I get back to the states.

I really love the awesome colors the screen gives off even with the current "glossy" screen protector. I don't know if I'm willing to sacrifice that for no more fingerprints.

We'll see.

@Puckhead. I haven't tried or read about the privacy screen protector.

I put the matte protector on like 10 seconds after receiving my phone, didn't even turn it on yet, so there was no chance anything got on the screen, well somehow a hair got back there and a month later it annoyed me to the point that I took it off. My girlfriend got a fascinate and I was in screen envy anytime I'd use her phone but now without the protector my screen looks awesome. Finger prints and smudges drive me crazy though, not sure how long I can deal with that. Full brightness in direct sunlight with the matte protector though was legible so it will be interesting to see how it is stock.
