Is the clarity as good as the original apple screen?

Yes! When I got it felt like a thin, plastic like screen and I thought I bought some cheap replacement screen but once I removed my cracked one they actually had the same look and feel. The quality is pretty much the same. Believe it or not the screen looks exactly like the original apple screen once it was put on my iPad.

Absolutely not. the screen has been clear and sharp for me for the last few months since I bought it. It is also allowing my screen to really look bright compared to other brands that gave my phone a rather dull flat loo.

Anthony, It will help greatly. I busted my original screen 2 years ago and got this one, and it works wonders. Not an OEM screen, but it hasn't let me down since. Really worth getting, with such an affordable price tag. -Christopher James

I've noticed no such imdedance of clarity. The screen is as crisp as you could ask for. I love mine.

Although it may look very much like the original, there is that slight screen color difference when it's locked or off. The colors and everything else looks great while you're using it. Really identical, but yea i don't think it's an original Apple LCD screen. :l

If you look really closely at the screen when it's off and dark you can see a grid but only barely and I never notice it. When the screen is on it looks as good as the original. I don't know if that what you mean but I'm more than happy with mine!

I find it to be rather clear. Remember, it is High-Definition, so I enjoy the clarity of the screen.

The matte finish is different from the HD version, which is crystal clear. The matte finish removes any glare from the screen, which is what I wanted, but it does soften the beautiful retina display just a bit. I don't notice it too much, but if you put an uncovered retina display next to it you would be able to tell the difference.

Not really cause its like having the original screen on still. Its that clear. But the glare isn't bad, it's avoidable, the purpose of the screen protector is to defend the screen from drops or any other hits.

No I don't believe it is but it is a very solid replacment choice, especially at the price point. The only visible difference I can see is the screen is not as bright as the original.

I haven't ever had any issues with the retina display. Just make sure that the screen protector is lined up as perfect as possible.

Mine is the HD clear as well as another answer. It's not as good as an actual anti-glare shield will be. I find that it's okay in bright light but it is much like the iPad's screen so will reflect some if you're trying to watch video next to a window. The reason I bought this one was because the anti glare protectors do tend to reduce resolution.

Ya. I think so. I did not feel any difference in terms user experience with iPhone screen glass and iPad one

I have the black one, and the color, resolution, and brightness seem to be the same as the stock screen. The only difference I've noticed is that it does not have a very good viewing angle. I'm not sure about the quality of the gold colored screen.

Personally I vastly prefer the "matte" (ie regular) screen. Really bright and nice looking, with no glare...although as so-called "glossy" screens go Apple's are good.

Yes, it is perfectly clear. Take the time to clean your iPod screen well and the inside of the screen protector and it will install invisibly. But know the screen protector isn't completely tight to your iPod like the adhesive ones are so occasionally you will see some rainbow effect.

Yes, I was very pleased with the clarity. It's not as clear as glass, but I could see details and colors very well.
