Case + Scratch Guard

---

Hi Team,

Since SGR doesnt sport a Gorilla Glass display, which is the best combination of Case + Scratch Guard to protect it?

I've already ordered case mate barely there. Quality of CM is usually very high.

About screen protectors- so I haven't seen/tested any good one. All of them are cheap, self-adhesive **** impossible to apply and avoid bubbles. Either Zagg or Copter doesn't support our device yet, but maybe some of you found a decent one?

EDIT: I've just given a shot to this:

According to users' opinions it gives a decent protection for perfect price.

I only buy matte screen protectors off eBay.
Usually i got for the cheapest **** there. I cannot tell the difference between a $20 and a $1 screen protector.

The best way to put on the protector is to apply it right after removing the original protector that comes when u buy the phone brand new.
I know i know.....Most of u buy the protectors AFTER u buy the phone.
I've always bought the protectors and case before i buy the phone hahaha.

Nevermind this.
Next, never use the microfibre cloth **** they provide for free.
Usually the cheap yellow cloth they give is useless.
I have 1 from Ray Ban, 1 from Swarowksi, 1 from Oakley.
Use the best u can afford. The difference is great !

Wipe down the entire phone.
Careful never to touch the screen.
Some ppl apply a few drops of water on the screen for moving it after applying.
I dun.
Make sure no dust or specks.
If any, use a sticky tape.

Dun peel of the whole screen protector.
Follow this method....
This is similar to how i do it.

Cheers !

Thanks a lot mate!
I've usually followed all steps you wrote but always some small piece of **** goes under the film and as a result I get unremovable bubble, so I don't trust those self-adhesive protectors. I've already used 5 of them (cheap **** between 2 and 7 USD) and never succeeded I've always had better luck with zagg's invisible shield, i mean those applicable with water.

So you have to buy a Swarovski Crystal for 1000US$ to get the cloth and then be able to clean the screen.
hehe... just joking....
Good guide.

I used Vikuiti screen protectors in the past and found them very good

I don't see the ones i used before, but they have several ones for the Galaxy R

If u get **** under the film just before setting it down, lift up the film and use sticky/celo tape and pick it up. then continue laying down the film.
Only release the film down completely when u cannot see any dirt specks between screen n film.

User a tooth pick/hook/pin....anything that will not leave stain or grease.
our fingers are grease magnets.

buy those 10 sheets for under $5-8 from eBay and practice.
U will become Master Screen Protector Installer !

hehehe that was good

Thanks you Guys..

Agreed that CaseMate is one of the best quality for cases. Which type would be good enough to withstand accidental drops? Rubber/Jelly/Hard Case?

Also, is there a suggested brand for the screen protectors? I require one that is scratch & fingerprint-resistant.
Read online that Matt-type protectors make the screen look dim! Is it true?

Thanks in advance,
