Does it make the phone screen look grainy or oily?

Yes but not sure for every protector it could of been just mine but I wouldn't buy it

It doesn't look grainy and I wouldn't say it looks oily although I am not exactly sure what that means. The only thing I've noticed is that it picks up makeup and oils from the skin so I occasionally wipe it on my sleeves or jeans to clear up any smudges. Also all the minor scratches that phones and phone cases usually get are not visible on the protector either it's pretty nice

No. It has a matte finish which I like. I don't think it looks grainy or oily. AFter a few days (and many swipes), I can see fingerprints/streaks. But it wipes off very easily.

Not really. Mine looks a little weird anyway since my 11 month old likes to get a hold of my phone any chance he gets. I think it looks fine though, but at least the screen protectors are cheap enough to take the chance. Hope this helps. Good luck.

HelloIf you do apply the protector and it feels a little tacky, give it a few days until the oils in your skin absorb into the protector. It will then become as smooth as glass :)

The screen has a matte finish on the screen protector. That may be why it appears to be glittery. I hope that helps

No, it is a cool vinyl that adheres to the screen. But it is not the one I ended up able to use with the Nokia Lumia 920. There was a problem with a corner always coming up. They may have improved it, but the shape of the 920 caused a problem. Although Skinomi works on another of my devices, I bought Armor Suit for my 920 and it has been perfect.

Part of the back is clouded and part is not; so the grain would still be visible on at least some of the back of the phone. Hope that helps.

I think the problem is that the case first needs to be cleaned as well as the iPhone screen. I had the same problem, there is an oily residue that should be cleaned first.

On my old phone I had a matte finish and didn't really notice it. On my new phone, I have a clear screen protector and notice smudges very easily. I suppose the clear probably looks more like there is nothing on the phone, but makes fingerprints and smudges more noticeable. So.... I don't know if that helped at all, but that is my experience with screen protectors. That being said, if I were to make the choice of clear or matte again, I'd go with matte.

Yes,but it has no effect on the screen as far as I can tell. Mine still does it even after taking the phone out several times. Not a huge problem though.

NO! One of the things I had issues with. It trashed two screen protectors with scratches and rubs. I threw it out.

Not really. It does seem to smudge just a TINY bit more, as if more of the oils from my skin get on it. Still, the image is clear and colors are vibrant.

It's the main purpose to the matte effect of the screen protector, the only thing to worry about is facial oils as it's like a magnet to them. Otherwise you really don't have to worry about prints or much of anything else.

It has a light texture. I wrapped the smooth back of my phone with it for looks but it adds a nice bit of texture for a better grip.

No, because it helps avoiding dirt getting into the phone. I love it as it is.

No, it does not become hazy or cloudy. Finger oils are only visible with the screen off and only at certain angles in light. They wipe off easily with a microfiber cloth.

It gets a little shiny looking but cleans off with a couple swipes of a towel. I have not notice finger prints just the oil that comes off your finger. It works so good that its worth wiping it off once in a while.

Yes. But in my case it isn't even and in the center of my screen there is an small area where the two touch and it looks like a drip. It has no negative effect on the touch screen performance but the image quality is slightly affected. The small area in the center of my screen where there is no air gap is brighter.

No it doesn't affect it at all. In fact, it makes the screen smoother and it won't get finger print smudges as easily.
