Default Removable Screen Protector? Maybe a Sliding Window?

Want to protect my screen but don't like screen protectors. Is there such a thing as a removable screen protector? I was thinking perhaps a case that had a sliding window in front of the screen....

The point of a screen protector is to protect the screen while retaining its functionality and visibility. If you plan on taking off the screen protector every time you want to use the phone, then a pouch would probably work the best

I would take a look at the either invisible shield, or phantom guards...

I personally use zaggs invisible shield and have no problems with loss of functionality...yet some people say phantom guards feels more like glass

I've had Bodyguardz and Bestskinsever screen protectors (iPhone) and I currently have PhantomSkinz screen protector on my Captivate. IMO, I have to say that the PhantomSkinz feels the least intrusive (i.e. it feels closest to the original glass). I always felt the other protectors were a little too grippy. Then again, my iPhone 2G was starting to lag quite a bit, so it didn't really matter how sensitive the screen was if the phone couldn't keep up with it ;P

Yup I agree with you. I think a nice pouch would be the best, barring a special release from someone that I don't think is coming

Off to research nice pouches! Report back to HQ later

Are you referring to Vaja? I would love for them to make a flip case for the Captivate, I would buy it in a heartbeat.

Wow. I like those cases they look very nice. Only thing do they flip backwards when you open it or is it designed more so you can take it completely out when you use it?

The best pouch style case I've found so far is this Krusell, which I'm not even sure is genuine since I can't find anything on the Krusell site about it: http://www.totallycellphones.com/sai8capocabl1.html

I like that one a lot because it's low profile and doesn't have any clips or other stuff that makes it bigger to put in your pocket.

The Vaja cases will flip open and all the way around. Slider phones only get a pouch. There is a long wait if you get a custom case but imagine a one of a kind case in any number of colors, all leather. I had one for my Tilt-2. and would love something for the Galaxy.
