Depends on what your intentions are for a screen protector. I have a ZAGG and yes it is sticky but I have the peace of mind that it will do an excellent job protecting my screen and it self heals. Also you get the lifetime replacement. For me I balance the stickiness with everything else and I am going to keep mine on. I am sure as time goes on better iPhone 4 screen protectors will be available.

I have the Zagg Invisible Shield Maximum Protection on my iPhone 4 combined with a black bumper. I can tell you I feel great about having my phone in my pocket with pens/keys/whatever. I personally am a fan of the tacky/sticky feeling the shield comes with. I feel like I have a far better grip on my phone. The Orange Peel effect isn't noticeable unless you hold your phone in some obscure angle looking for it, and it doesn't effect the beautiful display whatsoever. Personally I think its certainly worth a try if you are unsure about it.

i tried the ZAGG on my original iPhone and didn't like it. i took it off after 4 days of trying to get used to it. I've had the Power Support Anti-Glare screen protector on since then, also got it for my 3GS and now waiting for it to be available for my iPhone 4. i absolutely love that protector and the anti-glare. only thing, i hope it doesn't take away from the sharpness of the retina display. we shall see.

If the Power Support anti glare for the iPhone 4 is the same as the one for the 3G/3GS, then it will take away some of the sharpness of the iPhone 4 screen. I retrofitted a 3GS Power Support anti glare shield on my iPhone 4 the other day. I still have it on for protection, but I'm going to go with a clear one instead once I find the time to buy another one. I had the clear crystal one on my 3GS and loved it. I bought the anti glare one by mistake for the iPhone 4 retrofit.

Ive fitted a screen protector and am very disappointed. It shows up finger marks far to easily, far greater than the original screen and is not without air bumps around the front camera and speaker, so I am going to take it off. I will keep the back on as dont see it. Just hope the front is as good as they say around scratch resistance?

According to Power Support the iPhone 4 anti-glare has been re-engineered with smaller cells specifically for use with the retina display of the iPhone 4. I guess we won't know what that really means until they start shipping later this month.

Due to being impatient, I've ended up with the Zagg protector on the back of my phone, and the Clear-Coat on the front ( http://www.clear-coat.com). Of the two, I prefer the Clear-Coat; the orange peel effect is finer (so less obvious) and it's also smoother in use (feels much more like glass than rubber). I see a number of people are complaining that the "feel" of it isn't very good, but I don't find it a problem - of course, your opinion may be different.

With both protectors, though, you do need to read the instructions and above all BE PATIENT. They'll look awful for two or three days, but once they've dried out they're not noticeable. They're also much easier to get in place than the regular protectors. I'll be replacing my Belkin iPad screen protector with a Clear-Coat one ASAP. Wish I'd known about them sooner!

I love this product. I've had it on my iPhones ever since the original iPhone. Apparently the Bullguard version from the States is better (slightly smoother), but it's not available in the UK, and for whatever reason, when you go to Bullguard's website and try to do an international order they never take the money from your CC or ship you products. Bullguard are a US only company and if you're not an American they blank you. ZAGG produce the best quality screen protectors you can buy in the UK.

I plan on having a clear coat or antiglare shield on the front and Zagg shield on the back and sides. You do not want to have the "orange peel" effect on the main screen, its noticable and takes away from the sleek look. The Zagg product provides extra protection against harder scratches AND the axtra protection on the sides may solve the antanna problem some people are experiancing. Haven't gotten the 4 yet so not tested.

Has anyone have trouble using it a long with a case? I bought an ifrogz case and it makes the screen protector pop up around the edges.


fransman- I had zero luck with Zagg invisible shield (front and back) with the ifrogz case. I waited the full 24 hours before putting on the ifrogz and edges were peeling. I ended up returning the ifrogz luxe case and also getting a replacement Zagg shield. I luckily found an icipio silycrylic case that works great with Zagg full body shield.
