Anyone recomend screen protectors?

ZevGun · 08-10-2007, 04:44 PM

I know the iPod is a scratch magnet, and people get cases or whole surface protectors, but most of the Zune is that hard plastic

How's the front screen hold up?
I haven't done much with mine aside from shoving it in my pocket so I don't think I scratched it yet (aside from the micro ones that you get from touching the screen)

I know a good place to get a protector, but do guys recommend them?

i have one on my zune, and i would recommend one. my screen hasn't even been touched.

Whats the place you thinking about getting it from?

What I did was get a whole case that comes with a screen protector built into it...it works great and protects the whole zune...

This is the one that I got typo and all...

Ah yes but you have to be careful. There are some cases like that that move a little and over time with scratch a nice little out line for you.

that one's built for the zune... it's really nice.

You can also get multipacks with overlays that you cut out yourself.

Trying to score a deal with an online company to sell them to me so I can sell them to you guys for like $3-$4 a pop. We will see.

David · 08-10-2007, 06:18 PM

CameleonMK · 08-10-2007, 06:59 PM

I believe the place is called Screen Shield
I can't remember exactly, but after a little googling I'd find them.
They were originally designed to protect Helicopter blades, so they are very high quality (the guy takes a key to a iPod and nothing happens in their demo video)
I got one of their products for my PSP and, aside from installation dust (i sucked hard the first time) it is wonderful, and has a lifetime warranty for scratches and such.

I just don't know if I should get a screen cover, or a full body case.

normo1234 · 08-10-2007, 09:11 PM

i like the invisible shields

JERICH · 08-10-2007, 09:27 PM

i just use the pouch that came with my my zune.. and it has no scratches(knock on wood).

ZevGun · 08-10-2007, 09:43 PM

the pouch works?
i haven't trusted manufacturer cases ever since the PSP
i'll use that for right now i guess

David · 08-10-2007, 10:15 PM

lol... I thought it was kinda cool how your screen had a smudge in the form of "PSP"

did it eventually scratch into it or something? cause whenever I would use my friend's I would just wipe it off... with the pouch.

So whats the sight?

CameleonMK · 08-11-2007, 06:32 AM

http://www.shieldzone.com/ Their screen protectors are like shields. Watch some of the videos they got. I was thinking of getting a full-body shield for my zune.

Dragod · 08-11-2007, 08:25 AM

I was going to get one, but I decided it'd be better to pay $30 for a Leather DLO case, rather than $25 for a screen protector.

Plus, when you have something like leather around your whole Zune, it has some shock protection. Not to mention it stops the problem people have with static shutting off the Zune.

Mrtacobell · 08-11-2007, 09:25 PM

I went with the screen protector (the agent18) case. IT is hell of a good case just for $25 bucks.

irmikexp · 08-20-2007, 07:53 AM

i use a normal screen protector that i use for my pdas, just had to cut down the size a bit and stick it on. other than that i still use the little pouch that came with it and im happy that nothing shows up on my screen.
