Click here for more information After reading all 23 reviews (at the time of this posting) I have come to this conclusion: If you are stupid, impatient, or cannot follow directions then do not buy this product. It (i.e. you) will fail and then post an unnecessary negative review of an otherwise great product MADE IN THE USA.
To be simple if you follow ALL the directs exactly (wash your hands, take out the battery, etc.) you will come away with the BEST screen protector you have ever seen. I did just that and I must say that this product is was worth every penny. I put it on my new Inspire and I was worried that it would blemish a great touch screen phone (dust, bubbles) and reduce its responsiveness. But to my pleasant surprise after following the directions to a T (including waiting 24 hours) I can't even tell the thing is on there. The only time I can that it is there is when the phone is off and I hold it just at the right angle to see one small wrinkle, and this still may go away within the next few days.
This tip may help those who buy. I discovered it accidentally.
After washing my hands well I used Bounty paper towels to dry them (about 3 full towels). In doing so I made a very slightly damp cloth. I used it to clean my screen prior to applying the skin. I think the mix between the quality of the towel and its slight dampness allowed me to get my screen lent free prior to application. I have had many phones (and many skins) but every time I end up with at least one to two places where there is trapped dust or a bubble. Not this time!
Also, I highly recommend taking out the battery so you can apply the solution liberally to your fingers and both sides of the skin. I did this and used the paper towels I had in the process to soak up excess once I began to align it and get the major bubbles out. I then waited about 20 hours prior to placing the battery back in.
Bottom line: If you are meticulous like I am, and pay attention to details, then you will be very happy with this product. Skinomi TechSkin - Screen Protector Shield for HTC Inspire 4G
When I received this screen protector, I, too, was taken by surprise by the installation process. To make sure that I understood correctly, I checked out a how-to video on-line. Yep, they really meant for me to spray my fingers and both sides of the screen protector with the spray that was included in the box. Very strange. I followed the instructions exactly. When I was done, I had a cloudy mess with streaks under the shield. I was worried! But I waited overnight (I did the installation right before I went to bed). When I woke up, most of the cloudiness was gone. By the end of the 24-hour period, it dried clear and I could only tell that I had the shield on my phone by very close examination. The only tell-tale signs are the edges where there is a very slight rippling. This is only visible from an angle in the right light. Maybe I'm picky, but the ripples are the reason I'm only giving this product 4 stars.
This shield does not interfere with the operation of my touch screen or the visibility at all. Before I installed the shield, I had a constant problem with fingerprints and smudges on my screen. This shield seems to have minimized that problem. I am very relieved to have a screen protector shield on my phone to prevent scratches/damage to the original screen. I'm eager to see how it will fare with daily use.
Bought the screen protector with not much hope , but it turned out to be the best screen protector I've ever purchased. The product directions are great, product installation was easy, and best of all it looks good.
Unlike most other screen protectors, the wetting of the product allows you plenty of time to adjust the protector so it sits exactly how you want it. Simply use the spray that comes with the product and spray sparingly, i let most of the water drip - the screen protector would still have enough moisture to do the job and your phone wouldn't be soaked. Highly recommended!!!
The product is not all win. I went step by step, finding everything to be set and straight as I wanted with a little bit of cloud on the screen. All fine and dandy, I let it sit for a day.(I did it mid afternoon and turned it on mid afternoon.) I find that my phone no longer wishes to turn on. Attempting to charge the phone to double check and searching all websites/forums that I could find on such matters(Skinomi website being the least helpful of all except for the "Not responsible for damage caused by user".) I take it to the AT&T store to find their deduction that the phone was damaged by this process and would need to be replaced. Thankfully, due to the 5 dollar a month insurance I purchased, my phone was replaced.
BOTTOM LINE(aka TLDR): In my opinion unless you have the extra dough to bust out on the insurance, don't chance your new HTC inspire in the hands of some small time, ignore its own faults, responsibility denying company; take the easy road and buy a dry screen cover that will offer the same protection but not have the underlying risk of spraying your phone with a liquid to make the adjustment easier.
TLDR the TLDR: Don't buy, get a dry protector, liquids=bad for phone and there is an inherent risk in using this process. - Htc - Terrible - Great Product - Horrible
