Screen Protector question |

Hi
I've had a Martin Fields protector for ages now and since I had my screen replaced (Repair centre didn't send protector back I'm going to buy a different one since I hated how the MF one got fingerprints on it so easy.
So I'm going to get the glare free one from here

Maybe a silly question, but this will cover the entire screen of my p900 right? Not just the top half.. And also, I may as well ask..Is the Brando one better? I read that the Brando makes the screen a bit dull.. I'm not sure about this one though... Anyone using the Expert Shield brand?
Thanks for any info

any glare reducing screen protector will dull out the screen a little bit. Also, there is no reason to expect the protector to only cover a portion of the screen. Everyone I have ever seen or heard of covers the whole screen.
This one seems like a good price, I don't think you have a whole lot to lose. |

I am using the WriteSheild from Expansys (www.expansys.com or .co.uk). It fixes well with no bubbles and doesn't dull the screen too much - I wrecked my P900 by not using one and have been pleased with the result on the P910... |

The normal Brando may be dull but Brando UltraClear certainly is not.
Also SymMobile Crystal clear is not dull.
However I've yet to find a screen protector that doesn't deteriorate with stylus writing.

Thanks for the replies..
Are these protectors 'glossy' like the MF one? This is what I want to avoid... I'm after the rougher ones that dont smudge or leave fingerprints... I know the older Brando ones are the type I'm looking for but what about these new UltraClear ones? I think I read somewhere that they are glossy (smudgy)..
If it comes to a choice however (smudgy or dull colour) I will choose the dull colour to be honest... Smudgy screens just do my head in.
Thanks again

My WriteShield is not glossy it has a pleasantly rough surface! Not sure how else to describe it really, but it helps with stylus input as well as protecting the screen... |

The Brando UltraClear and SymMobile CrystalClear are perfectly clear & glossy but both these manufacturers, and MF too, also make 'normal' ones which are less clear & more rough.
