   I paid ten bucks for this product and I’m unhappy enough with it that I’m not going to use it. Let’s go over a few things which might help prospects to make an informed decision:

   1 – In the product features, there is a mention of non-sticky surface. Let’s clear up two things: first, the non-sticky refers to the side that’s up. The other side that lays on the screen actually has an adhesive. Second, don’t expect the up side to be as smooth as the DROID’s screen itself. It does in fact feel a bit rubbery comparing to DROID’s screen.

   2 – In the description it’s mentioned that the product can be removed easily from the screen without leaving residues. In the installation instructions which comes with the product, it’s mentioned that “Removing the film after the adhesive side has dried may cause it to scratch or deform.”

   3 – As other reviewers have mentioned, you’d need to be really patient (I’m not). The installation instructions says “Allow 12 to 24 hours after installation before turning on the device” and “Micro-bubbles, streaks, and imperfections will disappear withing a few days”.

   Needless to say that I don’t recommend this product to friends.

   This skin is not worth the extra cost and Skinomi’s lifetime replacement guarantee is very limited. I’m disappointed that this pricey film isn’t any more protective than the cheap film I have on another device. You still have the same issues with bubbles and dust during application and the small paper squeegee included for pushing bubbles out had rough edges and snagged on the skin. There’s no magic here and certainly no reason to pay this much for a protective skin.

   Should you decide to purchase this item, know that the installation instructions strongly recommend leaving the battery out of your device for 12 to 24 hours for the screen to set and all liquid to dry. Check your device’s manual first, you may need to back-up your apps and contact info if you haven’t already.

   The Skinomi packaging is great. I wish they’d put that much effort into their product.

   Terrible product. Took more than 2 weeks to receive. The included item to push out bubbles ended up scratching the film, and when it was applied the film was very foggy and unusable. Do. Not. Buy.

   This screen protector is thick and sticky. To install it, you’re supposed to be ultra-clean, make it wet (great idea: electronics and water), and squeeze the bubbles out, but the result didn’t look good. Since it’s so expensive that you only get a single protector, you can’t try again. I just pulled it off and threw the whole wet, sticky mess into the trash.

   The protector is so thick and slick that I don’t think it would have been good even if if it were installed perfectly. I’ve used other screen protectors on other phones and they were easier to install and gave much better results.
