How long have you used these? I bought the 7 pack about a month ago and am already on the 4th one. If you have your phone in your pocket often they will just fall off and then you can't put them back on.
 
Well, I tried to fit one of these on Friday. I went through 3 just to get one to sit properly and not have air bubbles in the corners even after 5 minutes under the hair drier! I've picked my phone up off the shelf this morning and guess what... The corners have air pockets full of pocket lint!!!

HOW HARD CAN IT BE TO TRACE A SCREEN AND MAKE A PROTECTOR THAT ACTUALLY FITS AND WORKS!!! these are the third set of screen "protectors" I've tried that don't work!

I bought that 7-pack from ebay and they were very low quality. I could scratch them with my fingernails. Tried two on my Sensation and both were the same. Threw the rest away.

I should have used screen protectors. I thought my Sensation had gorilla glass....well I found 2 tiny scratches today. And I'm very carefully with it, so I thought.

Bought it today. Really satisfied although it took 2 weeks to come. Ah, that's what happens if you live far away.

Perfect fit, perfect clarity, and it's smooth too. Really good.

So these are still taking about a week to ship? Peeled mine off while I was intoxicated one night since I didn't like the way the corner bubble was staring at me :(

I haven't been using a screen protector because I haven't found any that fit well. These were well worth it, cheap and they fit. I don't like the feel of them so much but its not a big deal. Overall, I'm happy with these.

personally, i've not had good success applying these without using wet method. dry, i seem to get a piece of dust trapped. good thing about wet method is that dust does not remain on the film as you apply it.

In fact after a failed dry installation, i just used the same protector and tried with wet method. the dust came off the film into the soap solution. you need to be persistent with the working out air bubbles but eventually the film will stay.

Right now I am using the one that come with the otterbox. Its tick, but its just for the screen portion, its not for the whole front. I hate that.

I just ordered this, and it should be in Macedonia in something like 20 days. It usually takes that much. I'll tell you how I like them.

I removed my screen protector after remembering that the sensation's screen is a gorilla glass.

Dunno why we are are using screen protectors when its a gorilla glass. I understand if its like a fingerprint resistant but if its a clear gloss I duuno why.

I actually drop my phone on the pavement screen down, it didnt even scratched the screen but the metal frame got marked and a dent :\

    Okay Ive wasted alot of money of different styles of screen protectors
    for the Sensation . Its a common ritual for me with new phones though .
    I look for best fit , clarity , soft feel , and style . With the Sensations
    screen being curved its a pain to find the one that fits all of these
    requirements successfully . But as of today I found a worthy screen
    protector . So I thought I would share and direct you guys towards
    them :) First is the eBay link where you can get these exact ones .
    Then here is the pics of them installed on my S4g :) Please hit the
    Thanks button if I helped ! Enjoy ...

    Tools needed :

    Hair Dryer
    Microfiber towel or lint free extremely soft towel
    Dust free area
    Credit card or something alike with nice edges and not scuffed , chipped

    Installation tips :

    1: Make sure the area is dust free , I prefer the bathroom .
    2: Sit the phone on something soft and lint free
    3: Make sure the screen is absolutely free of fingerprints,lint,etc.
    4: Heat up the screen protector with the hair dryer so its hot to the
    touch (DO NOT HEAT PHONE !)
    5: Peel off #1 side of protector
    6: Apply carefully to screen so all edges are symmetrical in placement

    Here is where I do things different.....

    7: Rub the protector onto the phone , You will notice only the center
    section sticks down and a large portion of the sides and top where
    the beveled edges are will not stay stuck down . This is fine just rub
    so you can get as much to stick as possible .
    8: Peel off #2 side of protector , be careful to NOT peel off actual screen
    protector when doing this since the edges are not stuck down .
    9: Rub the protector on the phone with your fingers and credit card or
    whatever you chose to lay edges down and get air bubbles out . You
    will notice that the protector is very pliable now and will cooperate
    very nicely !
    10: Post pics for everyone to see :)
    11: Enjoy !
