Default Moshi antiglare screen protector

Worth every penny. No joke, if you like these get one from the AT&T store.

Agreed. I have tried almost all of them and Moshi is the best IMO. No soapy water, no wait to cure and no bubbles. Just wipe off your screen and apply. And if you don't place it perfectly, just pick up and reapply. I have taken them off, rinsed them in the sink, let them air dry and reapplied, no problem. Some claim it desensitizes the screen, but not my experience. Can be a little pricey ($20 to $25) and hard to find at a discount, but well worth the ease of use for me.

Somehow I failed to notice that it completely covers the notification light. Fail.

I was also bummed when I noticed this (I thought the led was broken at first). I emailed Moshi and they said it was something Moto change last minute and to ask for a refund from AT&T. I bought a $2 xtreme guard from Amazon that came today. I'll try it out tomorrow and give ATT a visit.

I have the Moshi and while it is easy to use, covering the LED notification light is a deal breaker.

While it's a great idea, the Moshi isn't worth it. I bought it from the local AT&T store for about $30 and applied it in a couple seconds. I got home and realized that I put it on *slightly* off, so I took it off and washed it, then left it to air-dry. I let it dry for a bit more than 48 hours, and then I picked it up to apply it to my A2. There was STILL bits of residue from the water that was easily visible. I washed it again and dried it 3 more times, getting as much water off the screen as I could, but 2 days later there was still signs of water.

So, unless you can find a place to put a piece of plastic for a week without any dust getting on it, don't even think about washing it. As for the notification LED, I didn't notice it because it was only applied for a few hours, but it's certainly a deal-breaker for me. However, I'm a bit skeptical about Moshi's excuse. How could they NOT know that there was a notification LED for such a device? It sounds to me like the just didn't see it 0_O

Sigh... off to the AT&T store for me to see if I can get a refund, although I threw away that cheap (but expensive!) piece of plastic a couple days ago :\. It's too bad about the notification LED, because otherwise I would be willing to buy that again and just not wash it .

I bought one of these and it had the notification light issue, I emailed support and they sent me out a brand new one that corrects the issue for free. My wife has the same phone so I just put it on hers. I really dont need the notification light.
