They come with a lifetime warranty (and will reinstall it for free). If you take the Invisible Shield off, it doesn't do anything to the screen - it doesn't even leave a residue.

Where is the Zagg Kiosk you go to located? Most Zagg kiosks in the malls charge $5 fee for warranty replacements. The fee is the same whether they install it for you or not since the Kiosks tell you they have to mail it back to the main Zagg office or whatever. Sounds like a bad deal to me. I was thinking about getting the Zagg HD but it seems like Zaggs lifetime warranty nickel and dimes you everytime you want a replacement. Either you pay $5 at the Kiosk or pay probably like $2-$4 shipping from Utah or wherever they ship from. I have a Kiosk nearby me but unless I see on Zagg's website that explicitly states that Kiosk's won't charge for a replacement.

If you want a clear shield you're probably better off getting a SGP nano clear or optics. It's like $14 for 3 of em. For Zagg HD you get 1 for $20, pay $5 or lets say $2 for each replacement. So for $14 you get 3 SGP, for Zagg its $26 for 3. Almost double the price. The Zagg Hd and SGP nano look like they are probably the same material anyway. You pay for the clarity in for both of them in durability; there have been people complaining on the forums that the Zagg HD and the SGP nano both scratch quite easily. SGP is just a better value.

Should I go with SGP Nano Clear or Nano Optics?

My GF has the Nano and I never even notice it is there. It looks like the Optics will reduce screen quality a bit relative to the nano. Unless glare really bothers you I would go with the Nano.


I personally took a gamble and went for the Dynaflo Liquid Armor since I find buying protectors for multiple phones in my family annoying. It is extremely clear, actually so clear that I'm not sure its actually on there. So far so good tho.

When you say glare, are you referring to glare from direct sunlight? Or will the thing be glaring indoors too?

I got the Skinomi $3 deal. I hate it.

It installs like crap. And it creates a rainbow effect on the screen. And with edge TPU cases like the diztronic it peels up.

Also it already has a permanent scratch down the middle of the screen that has not gone away.


I'm waiting to get the SGP edge one.

Keep it out of your pocket for 3-4 days. Probably the stupidest thing I have ever heard. No offence to you, but that Zagg rep is a moron. Show of hands, anybody EVER do this? And if so, why? I can't believe he didn't tell you about how you should not use your phone for 12-24 hours either.

I'm having good luck with an el-cheapo screen protector (dry install) that i got as a pack-in with my $7.50 ebay case.

I just ordered the sgp curved crystal. Not sure when I'll get it though since it says "pre-order" :/

My vote is for the Nano. It is clear and hardly noticeable. It is cut smaller than the screen but hard to notice because it is really clear.

In regards to the Zagg warranty, what has always happened to me is if the mall kiosk has a screen protector in stock, then they replace it for free. If not, you only have to pay shipping and handling. They have also always applied mine for free.

The warranty you are describing sounds more like Ghost Armor. I had them before, and they do try and nickel and dime you every chance they get.
