Default Screen protector

Hi all,

Was hoping you might be able to help I bought a Galaxy Nexus yesterday and have been looking at screen protectors, but im not sure which to get. On my old HTC Desire I had an invisible sheild and im able to also get a martin fields one. So what do people suggest?

Or what else are people using and can recommend?

Thanks

I have an InvisibleSHIELD on my Nexus and it fits great. Goes edge to edge and there are no bubbles. The cut outs are perfect and it really is invisible.

I also have an InvisibleShield and it is great. I installed and after 2 days no more bubbles at all. I am curious though, how come some of the other screen protectors out there (SGP, etc.) do not leave the area around the front facing camera lense clear of any screen protector film. When you look at the front facing camera there appear to be two small lenses to the left of the front facing camera? What are those for and why did Zagg not want to cover those and some other screen protector manufacturers did?

Hi, just a query on the Zagg screen protector.

I haven't used one since about 4 years ago on my Samsung Omnia, and I thought that it felt "sticky", where you couldn't really glide your finger over it as smooth as some other screen protectors?

Is this still the case? How is the feel compared to the bare screen?

Ghost Armor hands down. No orange peel effect. Products like zagg invisible shield have horrible texture and orange peel effect.
