- I was at the local mall today and there were two kiosks selling full body shields, Clear-Coat and Zagg. Is one better than the other? I carry my 3GS in the DLO HipCase naked and was looking for the thinnest protection possible, mostly for falls. I wonder if this is something for me? I don't need or want a screen protector, but the back, side and corner protection is ok.

I handled a few sample phones with the shields on them. The texture is slightly different, sort of a sticky feel. The samples did not seem that "clean". Maybe they have been handled so much?

They guy said $10 to install everything, so it's probably less just for the back. Hmm, I might have to run back to the mall this weekend I have been meaning to get some kind of protection, but putting it off. I was also looking at the PowerSupport Clear Air Jacket set as well. Steep at $34.95 though for just a little protection. How would you compare the Zagg Invisible Shield to the PowerSupport Clear Air Jacket? Apparently, the Air Jacket is one of the thinnest cases out there.02-09-10 05:39 AMLike 0
- I bit on the candyshell protector by speck. Went with the grey/white, heard good reviews of it and for about $16 Ill give it a shot. Its hit miss on how bulky it is, the black silicone one I have now seems bulky alittle, doesnt slide well into pocket. If I dont like the candyshell Ill probably just get something simliar to zagg protector on the back to prevent scratches and hope that I dont drop the phone02-09-10 05:54 AMLike 0
- Just my IMHO, but I just got an invisible shield put on my 3Gs and I really like it. It does not add any bulk to the phone but does keep the screen and back very nice and clean. Another good thing is that I can still use a skin case if I want to.02-09-10 12:16 PMLike 0

- I have been using Zagg for quite a while, only complaint is you can't really use any cases with it. On the good side, Zagg customer service is great. I have replaced mine about 4 times. All you pay is 3 bucks shipping and you get an entire replacement, no questions asked.02-10-10 07:52 PMLike 0

As with anything, you can't throw the phone around like it's bulletproof02-14-10 04:00 PMLike 0 - Replacing it was because of defective Iphones, nothing at all wrong with the Zagg. I will tell you this, with much practice installing it, don't be afraid to get it wet. The wetter the Zagg, the less bubbles.02-15-10 12:46 AMLike 0
- Thanks for the feedback. I need to get some kind of protection. My iPhone took a little fall on my concrete garage floor last night No major damage, just a scuff on the corner. My iPhone took a few other minor drops in the past.
I will probably go with the Clear Air Jacket set. I wish they sold it without the screen protectors. That would bring the cost down atleast $14.95, plus I don't use screen protectors.
I love my air support jacket, you really can't even tell there's a case on it, and they usually come with two different screen protectors, an anti glare and a privacy one, I went thru two different cases before breaking down and going to apple to get this one.... I'm glad I paid the price for it.. worth every penny, mine is the titanium one, and there is hardly any sign of scratching or anything like that... but I take care of the phone just like it doesn't have a case too
