ZAGG Invisible Shield vs. Clear Check Crystal Skin Gel Case

---

My Nexus One is in the post. Have anyone had experience with both?

Which looks better? Which offer better protection? Which is easier to clean?

I've used an Invisible Shield on several different phones. I had it on my G1 and I don't plan to get one on my N1. It's too tacky feeling. However it does do a great job.

I like the "gel" case I got for my Nexus, and I don't care for the ZAGG skins I've used in the past (too tacky on the screen as mentioned). I also don't like how the phone is shiny from it.

I like bodyguardz. Mine is on its way!

Why would it be vs. I use the shield type protectors for the screen and front and the clear case to protect the body.

The case is going to protect scratches to the screen and the shield is not going to protect against fall damage. I use a combination of both.

Good point. If only the check pattern isn't there. That pattern is well annoying!

The InvisibleShield makes your phone look like garbage after a while too (at least it did on my white G1) as it gets dingy from collecting pocket lint and dust particles under the edges.

Of course the N1 has less moving parts, so likely the skin would fit better, but I'm going to look into something that also provides shock absorption for minor drops as well.

However, I will say this: the InvisibleShield does a really good job protecting the screen.

This will likely be the path I take, though right now I'm just using the neoprene case it comes with.

I rather like the little Android on it, notifying people that the awesomeness in my palm is not an iPhone...

Ordered a Zagg shield for mine. Itll be in next week.

Let us know how you get on. With some pics.
