 3X anti-glare screen protectors - Read my application tips below. Feb 13, 2012
By Will B.
"Carpenter"
I consider myself fairly adept at applying screen protectors to Apple devices, having done it several dozen times now.
I've knocked a star off these for the simplest of reasons: As with all these 'screen protectors' there are two stickers covering the actual screen protector which are removed in order; #1 before you apply it to your screen and #2 after it is applied. The problem with this bunch is that the "Peel here" for #1 is located at the top of the screen. As I aligned the screen protector beginning with the speaker, it fell short of the home button, and had to be re-applied. If you've done this before, you know that the 'bad' bubbles that form (the impossible to remove bubbles) are due to tiny dust particles that adhere to the 'sticky' protector during application. Several tiny pieces of dust will ruin a protector during application.
I have a few essential tips to alleviate some of the common mistakes:
1) Clear an area to apply the protector on a workable surface. We use a glass table in our living room.
2) Wipe the area with 409 or windex, removing all dust and debris.
3) Allow airborne dust in the area to subside. Don't do anything that will stir up dust.
4) Wash your hands thoroughly and dry them thoroughly.
5) Gather the necessary tools for the application. (I use one of the "plastic plying tools" (found in a kit such as Complete Tool Screw Driver Torx Kit to Repair Replace Apple Iphone 2g 3g GPS Ipod Video Nano Touch Cracked Scratch Broken Lcd Screen Display because I find the smaller surface area of the tip better than a credit card)
6) Begin at the bottom or Home Button side of the phone.
7) NEVER TOUCH the unprotected side of the screen protector once sticker #1 has been removed
8) If you misalign the piece during application it is possible to grip the protector by the very edges.
9) Be extremely careful not to drop, lose grip or allow the protector to fall onto the phone.
10) Once the home button is encircled, align one vertical edge of the protector (ok to do before removing the sticker completely)
11) Use great care once the edge is aligned to hold the protector at the bottom edge, remove sticker #1 and only apply the protector to the very edge of one vertical side.
12) use your fingers only, with a gentle bend in the screen protector to carefully lie upon the phone.
With the absence of dust in the environment, there will be no bad bubbles. With a gentle bend in the protector there will be no bubbles as the protector is applied.

This product has a tactile resistance that is unlike my previous protector.
I cannot attest to the durability of this product - Yet.
I like them and have used a single protector from a pack of 3 for 2-3 months.
At less than 50ยข each - there is NO reason to ever spend $14 for protectors from Apple. YOu are being completely robbed blind by suppliers who charge more than pennies for this product.
I am very please with this product, would recommend and would buy again. Thanks Amazon.
ps: even following my precautions, due to the sticker at the top causing a misalignment on the first try I somehow picked up a single teeny-tiny dust bit. The application was 99.999% perfect... and will do just fine because in a week or so it will be scratched up and you won't see this tiniest of particles when LCD is illuminated anyway. It would take an extremely discerning eye to locate the error... but there are two more should I care... and at pennies apiece I welcome a second try when I'm ready.

Update: It's April 2012 - This is the best screen protector I've used. The shiny surface seems extraordinarily scratch resistant. The one I applied when I wrote this review is still VERY nice. It's been long enough to change it, but I am convinced these are the best ones I've used... and MUCH better than the $14.95 version! I should order more before this store/supplier/supply disappears as they do. Thought it was worth coming back to report these are time-tested excellent.

 Anti-Glare Screen protector Jan 02, 2012
By Packerfan43042
Exactly as described. I love these anti-glare screens better than the shiny ones because your finger prints don't show on the iphone when you use it. The fit was perfect.

EXCELLENT VALUE!!!! Oct 17, 2009
By Stacie L. Helsing
"stacielc"
Are there better screen protectors? Yes. Are there any for this price? NO. They are great, work fantastic, and go on easily!
 This is so bad :-) Mar 27, 2012
By Mukherjee
This is so bad that I am very amused. Granted cheap. Problems:
1. The sticker on the actual film that goes on the iphone wouldn't come off easily. Of the three, the first one got destroyed because of this.
2. The other two came off within a few days of use.
Yikes!
