I need at least 1 screen protector for the lcd side of my EE and I figured while I was shopping around and searching the forum I would compile the plethora of screen protector resources we have for prospecting PE & EE owners.
Option 1: XO Skins
Coverage: any screen on EE or PE
URL:
http://xoskins.com/laptops-tablet-re...kin-protectors
Prices: EE -- LCD=$19.95 -- E-ink=$19.95 -- Both=$27.95 (all prices w/out shipping)
PE -- LCD=$17.95 -- E-ink=$15.95 -- Both=$20.95 (all prices w/out shipping)
Stickiness:It has been reported that XO skins stay smooth.
Notes: People claim these work the best, but they also cost a pretty penny.
Option 2: NU Shield (compliments of cheyennedonna)
Coverage: any screen on EE
URL:
http://nushield.com/ to find product order now by manufacturer>custom size product list>then in the textfields Entourage and Edge.
Prices: EE -- Both=$25.50 +shipping
Stickiness: no data, but I will look into it.
Notes: Another good quality protector for a higher price.
People said that Kindle DX Screen protectors fit the E-ink screen of the EEs so here’s an example:
Option 3: BoxWave Kindle DX ClearTouch Anti-Glare Screen Protector
Coverage: EE e-ink screen
URL:
http://www.amazon.com/BoxWave-Kindle.../dp/B002EJVLBW
Prices: $8.95 +2.54 shipping
Notes: People complained about not-so-good glare reduction, but the size was right.
In addition custom screen protectors will fit nicely. The dimensions for the two systems are:
borisb has measured the PE screens to be:
eReader: 3 1/2" (plus 1/16" to be precise) x 4 3/4" (plus 1/16")
LCD: 3 3/8" x 6" (plus 1/16")
I measure the EE screens to be:
LCD = 13 cm. * 22.1 cm.
E-ink = 14 cm.* 20.4 cm.
Option 4: Clarivue Custom Cut Screen Protectors
Coverage: any screen on EE or PE or anything else
URL:
http://www.clarivue.com/custom-cut-s...protector.html
Prices: $14.99 w/out shipping
Stickiness: I've read that it stays smooth.
Notes: lifetime warranty w/ $3.00 shipping for the replacements and I read good reviews from them
From here on down I’ll post ipad screen protectors that you can custom cut for a budget screen protector. The dimensions for each device are posted above option 4 if you are just skimming.
Option 5: iPad Anti-Fingerprint, Anti-Glare - Matte Finishing Screen Protector (compliments of cheyennedonna)
Coverage: any screen on EE or PE
URL:
http://www.handhelditems.com/reusabl...html?=#reviews
Prices: currently $2.72 + free shipping
Stickiness: No stickiness.
Notes: They have mixed reviews and one guy said to avoid using their edge to get rid of the bubbles. Overall, this is so cheap, that it would be worth it to try them on one screen and worse comes to worse try a proven better solution. Many people in the reviews also said that the glare reduction worked. From trying it, I'd say that it definitely keeps the screen protected and no fingerprints thanks to the matte finish, but the stylus easily scratches mine. I will replace it once there's too many scratches, but it was worth the price.
3 Pack of Premium Crystal Clear Screen Protectors for Apple iPad
Coverage: any screen on EE or PE
URL:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003D8GAA0
Prices: currently $2.07 + free shipping
Stickiness: sammy2k said that it was smooth.
Notes: They were given pretty good reviews, but note that it will give glare so it is better for LCD. Also, people said the cloth left a lot of lint, so it is dis advised to use.
(note I could not find EE or PE screen protectors from Zagg anymore, if you can find them please tell me how so I can revise the thread)
Feel free to put up any good options that I did not include (and I will most likely add them). In addition reviews are appreciated. I will personally order one of the cheap Ipad screens and cut it up. If that fails I want to see how the custom ones feels so I can report back to you guys. Also can I get a double check on the PE and EE screen dimensions?
