Too bad I hate Zagg stuff. Their screen protectors feel sticky and look funny when on.

The site crashed last night and their phones were unavailable as well...Due to this they have extended the deal to today too. So all day Tuesday they are offering the same deal

So why even read the thread? Just wondering. To each there own though. If you don't like Zagg don't buy it, for those that do, this is a great deal. You actually can't even tell that the screen protector is there if you put it on right and wait about a day or 2 for all the imperfections to work themselves out.

Nice update. I received the email that this was extended too. You beat me too it though.

I ordered a shield and I was told that I could have it installed professionally at no charge at a mall near my home. They even gave me the addy of the place.

Gumdrop Military Edition

I ordered one of these
http://www.gumdropcases.com/military-edition-samsung-galaxy-tab-rugged-case.html
about a week ago and was told "Shipping in two to three weeks".
Well, hallelujah, it shipped yesterday.
I will post a full review when it arrives.

i'm not sure how I could carry this around....

I have two kids, two dogs, a swimming pool with a concrete deck and I use my Tab on the treadmill and elliptical. I'll take all the protection I can get. My iPod is in an Otter case, and I can't count the number of times it's been dropped in the gym and the case has saved it.

Looks great. It will match my uniform but isn't it a little expensive?

I just bought one, too! My kid has a tendency to drop things!

Been using mines for the past month. Black on black was the one and only choice for me. Plus, the optional screen protector works better than I had expected.
Sent from my Cyanogen-filled G2x or my GTab 10.1 now "In Paris"

Well, this thing arrived earlier this week. I'm not happy, but before I get into a rant, let me see how Gumdrop deals with the issue. The issue is - I specifically bought the Military Edition for the microfilm dust filters and.....there're aren't any. I paid $10 more than the regular case, for a...regular case, but in green. Other than that, the case looks like it offers some serious protection for the Tab.
So far, their response has been underwhelming. The have offered a 10% refund. Well, I'm not the best at math, but if I have done this right...10% of $59.95 is $5.99. A regular non military case is $10 cheaper. I'm still getting the short end of the stick.
I've politely declined their offer and asked for a full refund, item to be shipped back at THEIR expense. Does this seem reasonable, as the item I received is not the item that I paid for?

Sounds reasonable to me. If you used PayPal or CC just dispute it if they say no.

OK, Kudos to Gumdrop for responding quickly and satifactorily. I didn't realize that the military case comes with a clear plastic shield for the camera lens which the regular case doesn't. So it's not the exact same case as the regular. This is why I was offered 10% instead of $10.
They've offered to send me a shipping label and I can return the item for a full refund. I really wanted the dust filters, so I might take them up on the offer.
Anyway, good customer service and the case itself is well designed and offers what appears to be significant protection (I'm not going to purposely drop it to find out though).

It would take the $5.99 they are offering and go buy some thin cloth filter material similar to the material or composition of some reusable shopping bags and cut some strips to cover the speaker holes, glue it to the inner edge pieces or just place it there and call it a day.

Just ordered one today....looking forward to it.

[Q] Skinomi or Zagg screen protector?

As stated in the object, based on your experience which one would you suggest me for this beautiful phone?
Thank you..

Never used Skinomi but zagg is pretty good, used it on my atrix

Never liked zagg, it turns yellow and grungy. I have had them replace it a few times but it sucks that I need to pay shipping on a warranty.

Ive used neither. I have ordered a skinomi in anticipation of getti g my nexus hopefully in the next couple of weeks.
Sent from my samsung gt i9250 using powers of the unicorn.

Oh forgot to mention, i usually order a bunch of el cheapos from hong kong. Premium protectors usually do last longer, but if you find some decent cheap ones it can be more economical. I usually get 5 for $4 shipped from hk, and the skinomi i just ordered was $6 for one. Usually 2 or 3 premium ones are $10-$15. Doing the math and usually changing protectors about every 6 weeks id rather buy 10 from hk and that will last the life of the phone.

I've always been a big fan of ZAGG protectors. I have them on most of my devices. They can be a REAL pain to apply, but once you get the hang of it, it's not so bad. I've never had a problem with them. I did screw up an installation once.. was a bit too aggressive with the squeegee, left a bunch of marks, but they were nice enough to ship me a free replacement
This time, I'm trying Skinomi. Mainly because ZAGG now charges a ridiculous shipping fee for Canada ($17 on a 12$ protector!!). Whereas Skinomi ships for free to Canada.
Anyways whichever you decide, here are some lovely coupon codes
skinomi: get25 (25% off)
zagg: youmobile (cant remember but it was 3$ off my order)

I ordered a Zagg. Also have one on my Vibrant and I'm used to it. Very durable and wipes clean since it does collect smudges easily. Replacement warranty is good, too.

If you're in the states, verizon sells a 3pack of pretty decent screen protectors. I picked mine up at a local store.

never buy accessories from a verizon store. they rip u off.

Waiting for the martin fields screen and camera protector. Should be available shortly after the galaxy nexus gets released in Asia (whenever that may be).
My friend has it on his S2 and I didn't even realize it was on.

I always use Zagg on all my electronics. JSYK www.zagg.com is running 50% off today and tomorrow site wide and free shipping for orders over $29.99. I got my GN and full body MacBook Air shiel for $34.99 shipped.

I was using Zagg Invisibleshield in my last 2 devides (Nokia E61 and currently the Nexus).
However, I bought the LG Nexus 4 yesterday, and I wanted to buy the Hi-Def Insisible Shield (not available yet to Nexus 4).
Because of that, I will try a different protection and buy the Skinomi for a change (front and back cover).

Tested zagg before. Lasted less than a month. Hate the feel, hate the orange peel, hate the yellowish color. Bought skinomi and everything was better

I bought a zagg screen protector at radioshack last week for $4.50 and it looks really nice on the phone

I really like XO protectors. And If you want more economical packaging and save some money you can get a skin from bestskinsever.com. 2.95 shipping in the US
Sent from my PC36100 using xda app-developers app

I will never buy anything other than Skinomi protectors anymore. They are really easy to set properly and the protection is great. I've used them on 3 Android phones, all from different manufacturers and they work amazingly.
Never tried Zagg since I started using Skinomi first.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

I have an extra skinomi screen protector, with the entire package. I can send it to you for free if you just pay for the shipping.
I don't really like the rubber feel that comes with skinomi/zagg protectors, although it offers probably the maximum amount of protection you can get with screen protectors

I can definitely vouch for skinomi. i've had it for my last two phones, and i don't think id get any other brand. one think that i didn't even realize i appreciated about their protectors after buying an alternate brand is that they make the screen look really nice. they don't take away or interfere with the color at all. very appreciated. got another brand of screen protector when i first got my gn, and its like it put a matte finish on my screen.
i do swear that next time, if i can find someone to put my screen protector on, i will pay them to do it. i am terrible at it apparently. i have tried ALL the tricks. steam.... steam... you name it.
there was a tiny tiny speck of dust that made a little bubble on the screen, and my skinomi was on a bit crooked and it kept creating bubbles in the corners where my case overlapped. it drove me insane, so i just took it off.
i go commando now. screen looks awesome BTW.

Thanks!! Just ordered one. Hopefully it's better than the reallook, which was really good, but is a finger print magnet.

Neither worked for me.

Nice discount, shame they don't have anything and have never had anything worth buying.

If you have never used a Zagg on your screen - beware, while it protects like a champ, it makes your screen look like the surface of an orange and will render the S-Pen useless due to the tackiness.

i already post my feeling when zaag officially released for g note. coz i use my dell streak skin to my g note i feel very laggy....so i don't think it's good idea to buy zaag for g note.you will fill sorry for your money evern it's 50% sale.

Carbon fiber skin $4.99 shipped W/PICS!!!

I was snooping around for SII, Epic 4G Touch, accessories and stumbled upon this on eBay. I thought it was going to be just a cheap vinyl with an image of carbon fiber printed all over it. For $4.99 shipped I thought I would give it a try.
eBay link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/22094980676...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_1831wt_1063
When I received it (quick shipping too) I was surprised to see that the skin actually has texture rather than just being a flat vinyl. Its a dry installation and fairly easy to do, granted that you dont drink 3 bottles of Monster before applying. The skin also comes with 2 screen protectors which require a water/soap solution, I didn't bother applying those or even trying them out. ( I hate wet installation screen protectors, prefer dry installation. ) So I cannot comment on the quality of the screen protectors.
The skin covers the entire back and all sides. The cutouts are proper and do not conflict with any functionality. NOTHING in the front is covered with this skin, which I thought kinda sucked. But now that its on my phone I actually think its better that way.
Once applied the skin looks pretty sweet. The texture grips nice and protects your phone from scratches that would mostly derive from being in your pocket, sliding on counters, sitting in your cup holder while driving, and when placing it on the bathroom sink while you wipe your rear after that poopy-while-on-your-phoney.
DONT THINK this will protect your phone from a wooden bat swing or drops. Its a skin, not an otterbox defender.
As for quality, I have had it on my SII for 6 days and still looks as it did the day I put it on. In another week, who knows, another month who knows. Maybe tomorrow it will fall apart and disintegrate.. im not sure.. but so far it was well worth the 5 bucks, and then some.
Side note: my local mall charges like $90 bucks for these things with installation.. WTH................. (granted those are probably better quality)

I have it on my Nook Color and it is definitely worth the price.

Looks nice

I like... For 5 bucks I'm totally going to give this one a try. Thank OP

got one!
Nice. Got one. Thanks for the heads up.

nice i like this! thanks

is this skin thin enough to not affect its use with a samsung car dock?

I cannot tell you for sure since I dont have the dock, but the skin adds very little to the device.

Question, did it come with a cutout for the Sprint Logo? In the ebay pics it covers the Sprint logo, but in your pics the logo is showing.
Honestly I wish it would cover the Sprint Logo, I hate carrier branding on the outside of the device, huge pet peeve of mine.

I have had one if these since the phone came out. I got it from ghost armor. Mine does cover the log on the back. I also have a desktop dock and it still fits. I am sure my skin is the same thickness as this one. Mine is just more expensive since these weren't out yet.

There is a cutout for the sprint logo, so it does show once the skin is applied.
Have you ever tried rubbing a sugar cube on it? I have heard of people doing that and successfully removing such logos off their device.

Eh..
Ordered mine on the 29th and it still hasn't came in. It was only market shipped like three or so days after ordering it.. I have a case and was just going to try this out, but it's taking a while and I've received things quicker from China than this lol..

Yeah they're slow. Mine said expected delivery between March 7th and 13th, and here it is the end of business on the 13th and not here.

Dear cds0699,
Hello,
We do apologize, we made a mistake.
This item was shipped out last Friday (March 9), due to the relocation of our manufacturing facility.
Please allow until the end of the week to receive your order. Since we use USPS there is no tracking # provided.
Thanks

Yeah I sent them a message not too long ago. I use USPS very often and they always provide me with a tracking number, when I sell and buy. We'll see what happens, I'm not blaming them or anything, just saying how it is.
Edit: Just got a response, it is word for word the same as yours. My item was marked "shipped" on the 4th or 5th though, we'll just have to wait some more.

No so sure it's the seller's fault. USPS workers in my area are pretty disgruntled atm and it shows. They are all feeling what's about to happen to some of them.

Thanks just pick up one.
