Screen Protectors - screen cover, case
the peel off sticker on the screen guard doesn't come off cleanly. It leaves glue behind. i tried to clean it with some Windex but it only made the residue worse. These were cheep with free shipping so it was worth a try.
I was not applying the protector correctly and my initial review of the product was in error. Now that i applied the protector correctly I think they are a good product. just make sure to clean your screen really well before you apply the protector. Three LCD Screen Guards / Protectors for RIM BlackBerry Torch 9800
This purchase comes with 3 screen guards, a small wipe cloth, and a little plastic square that you use to push the air bubbles out as you apply the screen guard. The screen guard itself is protected by 2 thinner plastic sheets, called masks, which are on each side of the guard. You peel off one of the masks and apply the screen guard to your phone using the plastic square. Once you have the screen guard on, you peel off the other mask. This second mask prevents fingerprints/scratches getting on the screen guard as you try to apply it to your phone. The screen guard does not affect the touch screen at all. It's easy to put it, it works, and it's inexpensive. What's not to like?
Some reviewers mentioned sticky residue. They are probably referring to the residue left by the instruction stickers that are on the 2 masks. The stickers say "Please peel this mask before application" and "Please peel this mask after application," These instructions were referring to the masks, not the stickers themselves. I'm assuming these reviewers probably didn't know these masks are supposed to come off and just tried to peel the stickers off and then proceeded to put the screen guard on with the 2 masks still on it. The screen guard itself is not sticky at all so it would not make sense for it to leave any residue.
The screen guards arrived within a couple of days of placing the order. First tried to apply them in a vertical fashion (from the top of the phone towards the keyboard), but couldn't align it well. When I tried aligning it on one of the sides of the screen and laying it down towards the other side, it came down perfectly. Hasn't peeled off (2 weeks of use) and does not affect the screen at all.
Item is exactly as described and fits the Torch well. It's good quality and easy to apply although I wish it came with that card to remove bubbles. But all in all it was perfect fit on my Torch. And it has a smooth surface when using the touch-screen. Would highly recommend this item. Very good for the cheap price.
This is the 2nd brand of this item that I've tried. The first one was a waste of money, it stayed full of bubbles and I wound up throwing it away. This one however fits perfectly and is a thicker sheet so you get very few bubbles and the few you get come off very easily.
These LCD screen guards are cheaply made and they have a sticker on both sides so you can pull them apart. When you apply the side that goes on your phone you have to peel the sticker off and is very hard to get the sticker off your phone. It leaves a sticky residue on your phone screen protector. It makes a mess and looks like crap. I wish they had it they way they make window tint no stick on it at all.
Just a heads up about OEM shop. I never got my item. Some guy named Riano emailed me and told me he'd resolve the issue if I removed my bad seller feedback of coarse once I did that he never replied and the issue was never resolved. - Case - Screen Protector - Accessory Kits - Screen Cover'
