Keep in mind that I previously have used Zagg's Invisible Shield product in the past.

If there is any difference between the Zagg film and the BSE film, I can't tell you what it is except that the BSE film seems to apply itself to my 8900 a little tighter (this is a good thing) than the former Zagg product did with my 8320.

The two films seem pretty identical to me.

There is a HUGE difference in two areas ... price and customer service and in these two areas BSE is the clear home-run champion. The BSE product is 1/3rd the cost of the Zagg product. Additionally the BSE people are a charm to deal with. I'd have to give BSE an A+ for my sale. They were nice to deal with, they did everything they promised, their skins arrived on time ... and I saved $30 buying from them.

Honestly, I can see no reason anyone would or should buy from Zagg. Same film, better customer service and better price.

My thumbs up recommendation goes to Best Skins Ever. They're pros and they did a great job and their product looks great on my 8900.

I couldn't be happier having decided to go with Best Skins Ever. And I recommend you do the same.

well to argue with this statement i did get the zagg full body on my 8900. i also had one of the workers from the arcadia mall install it for me and it is in great condition. i've had it on my phone since the first day i got it and i really enjoy the product. it does what it's suppose to and the texture of it is great. it does a have a grippy texture to it but it really is a film that i can use on my phone forever. and it has a great warrenty.

How's the BSE doing after a week? I'm thinking of ordering a set or two.
actually zagg won't void the warranty.

Yeah, you should be able to slowly peel it off (I'd heat it with a hairdryer first to soften it), put it back in similar water/soap, clean the screen real good, and put 'er back on. I would slide the BSE top edge right up against the lower edge of that black piece at the top of the screen so no dust can get between it.

No one said the Zagg product was bad. What just about everyone here has said is that the BSE product is equal in product quality and better in price and customer support.

I used Zagg on my last BlackBerry. I have BSE on my current BlackBerry. I can't tell the difference between the products by looking at them.

I can tell the difference in my wallet. Zagg costs around $40 shipped while BSE costs around $10 shipped.

If you are happy paying $30 more for Zagg, that's cool.

On the warranty, this so-called "lifetime warranty" is kind of a silly argument from Zagg. Do you expect to keep your current BlackBerry for the rest of your life? The average cell phone user replaces his or her cell phone every year or so. If Zagg can't stay on your phone for a year, they really have problems. The BSE people also will replace your BSE skins if there is a problem.

Zagg isn't bad. It's a good product. It's just 300% more expensive with marginal customer service.

+1 for BSE, I've had it for almost 2 years on my wife's and my MP3 player, it still looks new! A few weeks ago I applied it to my 8320 (screen only) and it was the easiest thing to do. No worries about using my BB in my pocket!

Just a little water--not much will be OK. Just to dampen it.

Thanks for your reply. I will try to do that by myself. I did mess up with the "zagg" skin before on my storm and bold. I hope the BSE will be applied on my iPhone smoother than my prev. exp
