Summarized?

A piece of shit at a piece of shit price.

Horrible screen protectors.

I got turned onto these things from reading a forum thread about them at another forum community where a few people had nothing to say but positive things about these.

Well, I have nothing to say about them other than they are a complete waste of money and are simply a piece of shit that may not only do you no good but could fuck up your display as it did mine.

They are in no way adhesive, which is neither good or bad since it has it's advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that they are easy to take off, which is something you will likely want to do anyhow.

The disadvantage is it's nearly impossible installing them. I spent more than half an hour trying to get one on my top screen and eventually gave up on that one, opened and another and encountered the same process.

Since they don't stick in anyway it's very difficult to get the vaccuum of pressure behind them just right so it will rest in place. I did manage to get it to hold a few times but every time there were several small bubbles (and they claim to be bubble free). I followed the instructions perfectly, even though the company doesn't even provide you with instructions specifically for the DS but for other PDA devices which the process can't be the same.

So everytime I had it hold to the screen there were a few bubbles. I'd try to even it out and get rid of them. Each time I'd do this the bond between the screen and the protector would loosen and the protector would completely fall off while sliding against the LCD screen and only scratching it!

Before starting this process I had nearly not even a miniscule scratch one could detect under a light with the naked eye.

After spending half an hour with these lousy protectors I am left with several defects in the screen.

Yes, I followed the instructions as best I could even though they didn't provide decent enough ones for the DS specifically. Yes, I was careful and took my time. Yes, I spent good money on these and regret every bit of it.

With shipping I paid nearly 20 dollars for these pieces of crap that I have only cut up now and thrown away. I cut up the two I tried applying so I wouldn't be tempted to fuck with them again and further damage my screen. I just left the other as it is and may throw that away too.

For now, I'm just living without a protector on my top screen and keeping my old protector for the bottom screen.

I'm not saying this to bash them as a company or to tell you that you are an idiot if you use their protectors - I'm simply posting this because I've read a lot of good about them, but had a horrible experience with their goods and felt I needed to share my experience.
