I had ZAGG invisible shield on mine since I bought it (about a year ago) and it worked like a charm. However, I took it off about a week ago because of a post I saw about how it makes the screen less vibrant. Having the invisible shield on it really reduced how clear and vibrant the screen was. Now that i took it off, it looks like a totally new phone

I totally agree with this post. I had a ZAGG shield and I regret buying it. Sure it protects your screen but at the cost of touch and looks. The shield gave off a very rubbery feel and close collected dust more than without a protector.

Currently I'm using no protector and am happy with it.

I use Realook on my vibrant and love it..
However, the review on Amazon about Realook on NS is not that good..

So I am wondering which one I should use..

PS. I want clear one, but not the ZAGG orange peel feelings...

NO. Don't buy it. Doesn't fit the screen because of the curve. I bought it, but Im switching to Best skins ever. From research all dry application screen protectors don't fit the screen completely. So your kinda left with wet installs which do, but have orange peel.

I went with Skinomi because it didn't have the orange peel effect, and was smooth. Good product, however I did end up an getting orange peel-like effect on the easiest part to install, the front... because I somehow managed to make dents in the protector taking out the air bubbles...

The back, though frustrating and time-consuming, turned out perfect. Strange how that works...

Put simply, great product if you have the time and patience to do it properly, I am seriously debating whether or not to buy a Skinomi screen only protector and re-do the front.

I doubt that you will find anything really good for under $5.67. Might as well just go with any one that you can find for that price.

I actually just received through the mail. The case is ugly and really hard. (Can barely press volume and power keys) fits real well though. The stylus is awesome and I just got the 6 protectors to make myself feel better (I have zagg)

I recently bought myself a new screen protector and mounted it today. It's a 3M Vikuiti DQCM30 foil, that's the matte (or anti-reflective) version. It says that it should fit especially for the I9023, but as the protector I used before it seems more that it was designed for the I9020 as it is a bit to short on the upper and lower edges. But as these zones are not used at all, I don't really care.

The display itself is not really affected from the protector, everything still looks very sharp and could be well read. The only situation where you realize the protector is when you look at a big, white space on the screen. Then you see some kind of little pixels, but that is the typically look of anti-reflective protectors as far as I know.

Using the phone feels very well, the protector itself is very plain on the surface so your finger can easily be slipped over the screen.

Overall I am satisfied with the new protector, but after all it is a personal preference whether you like clear or matte protectors.

Wrapsol still gets my vote. As good as ZAGG, dry application.
