Screen protectors from VZW store

---

So I am terrified of scratching my screen so i went into the VZW store today and got their anti glare screen protector. I've never put one on, or used one, so they did it for me. They didn't do that bad of a job, there's some loose spots around the edges, but I was more disappointed by how the screen looks now. You can definitely see the protector, even more so during white or light colored backgrounds/apps.

This is fine for now, as at least im protected, but can anyone recommend one that doesn't do this? I'm not familiar with them as this is my first time.... but i want my screen to be beautiful again!

I don't think you need a screen protector. The screen isn't Gorilla Glass, but I'm sure it's right near it in quality.

There's a bunch of people who already scratched their screens...

Can someone move this, wrong forum

Verizon sells two types of screen protectors

1. Antiglare protector
2. Clear protector

I suspect that you got the antiglare protector from your store. The upside to this one is that it cuts glare, has a smoother slide but can affect visibility of on screen apps like you notice.

Go back and buy the clear protector as I have no issues with it. if you think you may have problems putting it on yourself, then you can always pay 2x the price for a single Zagg protector in your local mall.

Good luck

i also got the anti glare one from verizon but the grainy/static look is starting to bug me im thinking of just using the phone naked

The grainy-ness really cheapens the screen. I would suggest going and buying a better screen protector. That's what I'm doing. Not going naked for a few months.

I as well got the anti-glare screen protector at the Verizon store and I hate it, I can't admire the screen because it looks like crap with the screen protector on. I went to the Clear Coat screen protector stand at my local mall and they said they should have protectors for the Galaxy Nexus in about a week and I plan to just do that instead of living with this anti-glare crap.

I'm going to order a replacement one on Amazon tomorrow, any suggestions? I don't want one that has to be wet to apply. I don't want to even know its there...

Are you sure this isn't gorilla glass? I had the Nexus S4G and the Epic 4G and the Epic Touch 4G. Non of these phone ever got scratched. There was a thread describing what it would take to scratch the gorilla glass but I can't find it.
