| | Screen Protector Makes Storm Harder to Use?
As soon as I got my storm in January, I slapped a screen protector on it. I just got a replacement storm and it doesn't have anything on it, and I've noticed it's a LOT easier to use. On my screen protected storm, I would have to use only certain parts of my thumb or other fingers to touch the screen and have the screen respond, but I find that without a screen protector, everything just works so much better. I'm starting to wonder if I want to put another screen protector back on it >.<

I noticed the same thing but p thought that it was because I had a mirror protector on my mine. So I ditched the protector and everything has been great.

I think the screen stays cleaner ...the glass does not
Smudge as much as the plastic screen protector
Does.

I have just never thought about this before. I have always had a screen protector on. This is very interesting though... I do need a new protector so I think I might give this a try.
Thanks

The screen is glass a few months back there was a you tube
Video with a dude scratching a key across it...I tried scratching it
With a knife no problems on mine....my brother in law has had the
Iphone since it came out like 3 years ago with no screen protector
And he has no scratches. I do use a feather lite case though.

I am deathly afraid of going without a case on my storm, even thinking about it makes me nervous ( I know rather dramatic). I have taken my protector off once and it was beautiful I was just to paranoid to leave it that way.

My screen responsiveness is just fine with a protector on and I wouldn't take a chance with out one. I also work in a high damage/risk area.

I have my storm for 3 months without any screen protector and its absolutely flawless with no scratches in site anywhere and i use it a lot, carrying it in my pocket with keys sometimes, and still not a glitch, this screen was well thought out before it went to production!
same thing with my iPhone 3G, no screen protector and no matter what i do other then smashing bricks onto the screen, it just don't scratch under normal use!

Thanks | I keep it in a holster. The pocket seems like a terrible place to keep your phone...to me, anyway.
