Screen protector yay or nay?

[bor42]

So...I just ordered myself an 820 and would like to take care of it a bit better than my previous phone (it's no fun looking at the scratch in the middle of the screen for a year and a half).
My question regarding screen protectors for 820 is, do they interfere with the whole "using with gloves" think and if they make the display harder to use outside (do they add additional reflection).

If any of you uses a screen protector they can recommend that'd be great but I guess if I can't find a perfect enough protector I will go with a pouch.
Thanks!

They don't effect the use with gloves, I had am 800 prior to getting my 820 and never used a protector.

I have this time though, chose to apply a protector to my device, simply due to the fingerprints that I have noticed are much more noticeable on the 820's screen.

I picked up a triple pack of Fosman Matte screen protectors off amazon, for only a few British pounds which worked perfectly fine.

Thank you for reply, I'll order these, unless I find some matte ones: 6x screen protector ultraclear for AMOI N820 | eBay
I'd use Amazon but I'm not from UK so shipping can be painfully expensive, let's hope this one isn't too bad

edit: whoops, almost ordered for the wrong device..

well im using my L820 without any protectors, i like the phone to be smooth and bright as much as i can.

it all depends on what is your daily life style, if you are an active guy that needs to move and go out with phone in pocket and some phone drop accidents every now and then, i really recommend you get the plastic protector also to get a case for it.

I use a screen protector on my 820, touch is the same, no worries, keeps those dust scratches away, my first 820 had got a 1cm dust scratch which always bugged me(it was really heartbreaking too). But screen guards really kill the display in direct sunlight or extra bright environment, too much reflections, i dont like matte finish at all so never tried it, no matter how expensive screen protector i buy, all have so many reflections. So your faces lot of outdoors(without dust), then keep it clean, but for dusty/indoors environment, i would strongly suggest you get one.

I couldn't resist and bought a pouch for it and I hope it suffices, I heard 820 has great outdoor performance and was one of the reasons to get it.
