These screen guards provide MINIMAL protection; it's really thin and is damaged with horrific ease.

Each screen in the package is set up like this in layers: sticker to help place the protective sheet on without using your fingers (therefore preventing fingerprint marks), thin film (the screen guard), adhesive plastic (so that the film doesn't stick to any surface during packaging), and another sticker (to help peel off the third layer, the adhesive plastic).

I received mine and was very happy to put it on immediately. So I took my phone and followed the instructions given to me. I peeled off the adhesive plastic so that I could put the screen guard on and then spent a little bit of time aligning it. When I finally got it just right, I smoothed the guard onto my phone screen. And then I tried to get the sticker off when the screen guard ripped. I had been extremely careful and gentle with the screen guard, but it simply ripped.

Thankfully, the package holds two guards. I attempted it again, this time being even more careful. When I finally got this second on to the point where I had to take the sticker off, I was prepared to spend a while carefully peeling the sticker off. So I gently eased the sticker off, which stretched my guard. So then I had a screen guard which fit oddly in one corner where it had been stretched.

So you'll either end up tearing or stretching your guard while putting it on.

But that's not all. The protection it affords is minimal at best:

@ I tried smoothing the screen out with the assist stick. It left a big scratch mark. I thankfully noticed it rather quickly and stopped immediately, but the damage was done.

@ After washing my hands, I got a phone call and had to pick up. Wiping the water drops off with a soft towel left small scratch marks.

@ My friend, upon seeing my new phone, asked to hold it. Her fingernails were not long (and the phone recognizes finger touch rather than force, so there's no way she was using her fingernails to navigate the it), but somehow the guard was scratched. (I was even watching her -I love my new phone, after all -and saw her being being extremely delicate with trying it out, but the screen guard still got scratched.)

@ I accidentally dropped my phone and went to catch it. Somehow within the time I dropped it and the time I caught it in mid-air, the screen guard ripped (READ: it looks like someone slashed my screen guard open). I don't know how this happened, seeing as the only thing that could have ripped it would be my fingernails (I wear no hand jewelry, and my watch is on my other hand). But my fingernails are always well-trimmed and short (I practice martial arts), so I don't know how it could have happened.

-----BOTTOM LINE-----

My experience with this guard has been awful at best. Other people may have had luck with their product (maybe mine was defective), but I wouldn't suggest this to any of my friends; it would be far too cruel.

Easy to apply and looks great! There are so many different products out there that I wasn't sure what to get but for the price I figured I might as well give this a try. I've only been using it a little while so I can't comment on its long-term effectiveness but for right now its excellent!

The instructions for application are very easy to understand. The part I like best is the ability to reapply it if necessary. Some of the other products I looked at had a wait time between application and using the phone but this one was instant.

**updated on November 3, 2010** I still love this product! I messed around with it and got dust underneath the screen protector (oops...). But, just like the description said, they can be reapplied! I didn't have the instructions or the application 'tool' with me when I reapplied it, but you basically wash it off and then stick it back on!

Nearly every item listed as for the pre plus shows a picture of a sprint palm pre instead. This screen protector has a notch for the top silver bar and a tiny divot for the microphone, perfect for this phone. It came with clear explicit directions, even going so far as to indicate on the wrapping which side goes to the phone. As a nice bonus, I ordered it standard shipping on July 31st and received it on August 2nd.
