Does anyone have any recommendations for Screen Protectors? Which ones are people getting?
 
I was looking for one with a privacy screen. If anyone knows where to find one, let me know.
 
The vzw branded ones are terrible. I ended up tossing them. It was like swiping rubber, not glass.
 
I'm waiting for Skinomi to release theres. I love their screen and their customer support (warranties) are incredible!
 
For now, until I find something, I left on the original one that came with the phone. Yeah it has the indicators on where things are, but it's still better than nothing right now!
If Gadget Guard made a Black Ice screen protector for the Icon, I'd buy it! They only have the regular one right now: Nokia Lumia 929 Screen Protector
 
another vote for Skinomi - I've tried others that seem like they are the same but nothing has compared to Skinomi so far, with invisibility on screen and self-healing... have them on my cameras and will be on my Icon as soon as they are available
 
I was wondering.....is a screen protector needed with the Gorilla Glass 3?

I would be interested in this as well. I am careful with my phone and I HATE the feel of the VZW protector that I purchased. How well does the Gorilla Glass 3 hold up?
 
I'm heading to the Zagg InvisibleShield store after work to see if they have one for the Icon already. That's the best of them all, in my opinion, except for the weird sticky texture.

I went yesterday and they didn't had it. Let me know if you find it.
 
I'm torn on the screen protector issue.

I did not have one of my 8X, and over the course of 2 years, the Gorilla Glass 2 kept it scratch free. Not a mark on it. I assume GG3 is even tougher (actually was about to go online and read up on it) so I'm probably NOT going to put anything on my Icon. I should note, I am very careful about where I put the phone, and what I put it near. I never put it in a pocket with anything else that might scratch it (keys, coins, etc.) even though I've seen Gorilla Glass 1 marketing showing people unable to scratch the screen with keys and razor blades.

If I was going to do something, I'd go Zagg. They are a PITA to get on, but once on, the new HD protectors (especially when your device is on) are undetectable. That's what I have on my Surface 2.

Only thing that concerned me, if I were going to go the protector route, was how well they stay on the Icon's curved screen. I would not think a flat screen protector would lay flat at the corners.
 
Anybody have any other suggestions for cases or shields? Been waiting for Poetic and Skinomi but neither has released anything yet and I'm quite sketchy about having a naked phone lol..
 
I think the Otterbox Commuter series, once its available, is a great product. We have them on 30 iPhones and we have never had an "accident" (cracked screens, dents, etc) with any of them...and yes, our users are brutal on phones. Before we required the OBox, we were replacing phones at a crazy rate.
 
What screen protector isn't rubbery feeling? I picked up the Skinomi for my wife's 928. It' is a very nice protector and fits spot on, but it feels rubbery and sticky. If it was my phone I wouldn't be able to leave it on. So, what options are there for a harder/smooth/slippery screen protector. In the end I might just end up going without and testing this GG3, I'm not too hard on my phones.
 
I love the Skinomi because they go on really well, they stay on really well, they cover the ENTIRE glass area, and they are very transparent! Their customer service and warranty exchange is awesome, easy, and very fast. The rubbery feel is a downfall, but I feel the rest make up for it.
