I also ordered the Rearth screen protector from Amazon. I received it today and installed it on my note. Its incredibly clear. The install was super easy and the fit is great. So far Im really enjoying it.

I bought the slim case today looks like the kit comes with the screen protector, I wonder how well the screen protector will do with the S pen. http://www.rearthusa.com/galaxy_note_slim.html

any bubbles? mine will be here tomorrow!

Ragin Cajun · Feb 23, 2012

Not a single bubble. It's very nice. It also seems to not collect oil from your hands either.

I got it and I would say it's a perfect fit. To be bubble free depends on your experience applying it. It is no different however from the $3 for 5 pack dry application protectors you find on ebay (rearth comes with 2). I wouldn't have bought it if it wasn't for amazon free 2 day shipping. I don't want to wait 3 weeks for a hongkong seller to mail it.

I had one come with my case. It was descent but I didn't like the feel. I play a lot of "slidy" games and most screen protectors just feel to tacky.

I got the Ringke Slim. I really like the in-hand feel. Gives the Note just the right "oomph" without adding a ton of bulk.

Keep in mind that this is a very minimalist case -- a lot of people were caught off guard by this. The sides are largely exposed, for example.

Also, the back is not tacky like a TPU case. I added egrips.

The port covers are nice, they come with one extra of each, and they are easily removable if you dont like them. I removed the charger port cover and kept the 3.5mm cover.

FYI it's cheaper on amazon if you have Prime.... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B0074MQ1T6

Thanks for the info. That's part of the reason I ordered that one, I liked the fact that the chrome still showed.

Also found a little review on Youtube

Yup. I ordered mine thru prime. You can't beat the $3.99 overnight shipping. I'm waiting on a sd card from Amazon right now.

Just got the rearth and applied it. Perfect fit - it will extend to less than 0.5mm from the edge of the screen if you do it right.

I was hoping the oleophobic properties were better. More fingerprints and friction than I would like.

I too bought the Rearth from Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/Rearth-Samsun...Q1T6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1330046814&sr=8-1

I just applied my screen protector tonight. Got it on the first try. I've installed 10-20 screen protectors before so I have experience.

I bought the Zagg a couple days ago at best Buy and totally screwed it up! What a waste of $22. Never buying Zagg again. Plus, the Zagg screen protector feels a little "sticky" not as smooth as the Rearth.

The Rearth is almost like it's not there. We'll see if it shows as many scratches as the cheap-o ones that come from Hong Kong. I too usually buy those ones for my phones, but I didn't want to wait 3 weeks. There was no U.S. sellers. I figured spending $12 now with free 2 shipping is better than taking a chance at scuffing up the screen before I got the screen protectors from eBay.

eazyweazy3 · Feb 24, 2012

I purchased the Slim case from Rearth for my Note also.

I've had three Rearth cases now and also have the vecro keyboard cover for my macbook.

I absolutely love their products. Exactly what they say they are.

The screen protector works, looks, and feels great imo.

Easy to install, crystal clear, perfect fit. I love it.

carhigh · Feb 24, 2012

I like the screen protector. Fits perfect and is clear so much so that I don't even know its on
