2 questions. I have never used a screen protector (my nexus 7 2013 is the first product I own that can use a screen protector) 1) will the screen protector reduce the responsiveness of the tablet? 2) I am worried about the wet application. Is it...

I have used many protectors over the years. The wet application makes it easier and I wouldn't fear that. I did find the Skinomi greatly degraded the responsiveness and removed it. I will likely order a Zagg because I've always liked them. I tried the Skinomi just for kicks and wish I had stuck with the proven Zagg.

Dear friend I wish there was a good answer but to my surprise I bought this protection and when my tablet fail down and had a crack on the screen they turned down my claim without proper reason and told I have to contact the manufacturer while it says that they cover you from day one and mine had only 65 days. So just think. May be you will be another victim.

You know... I have not had this problem. I removed my screen protector from my "Note II" no problem when I had sold it.Have you tried contacting the company for support or checked their website for an FAQ?Maybe I'll try to remove the one from my "Nexus 5" just to make sure and just reapply the second one. I'll respond back if I do it this weekend, if it works no problem, you might have a defective one?

Hello Kevin Durbin,After the application, once screen protector is completely dried up, it will not affect the touch screen usability. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

John - Yes it has a built in screen protector. It is a tough screen protector also as my kids have scratched their screen protectors but it has not hurt the screen on the Nexus 7. Saw my boys drop them a couple of times the other day and no damage. This is the best case available, imo, for the Nexus 7 and a kid or a tough work environment.

Hi, this is not the product for fixing nexus 7 screen. It is for nexus 4. Hope this helps.

Hi, no. It does leave a lot of finger prints. It picks up a lot of fats/oils from fingers and screen becomes a little less responsive. If not cleaned often - screen becomes very unresponsive to the touch of the finger tip. Let's not forget that the nexus 7 does lag sometimes (Android issue) so it all becomes a hassle. Next time I will try the anti-fingerprint film.

I personally have not tried that with this particular one. But from past experience in doing that with other screen protectors, I never got the same kind of "stickiness". I wouldn't recommend it, personally. I just don't think it is going to stick as good. Just my opinion!

Hello Elizabeth,No this screen protector has a different cutout compared to the first generation nexus 7. The screen protector for the first generation nexus 7 can be purchased here. ArmorSuit MilitaryShield - Google Nexus 7 Screen Protector Shield , Lifetime Replacements

I would highly suggest to buy a screen protector, and remove the one that comes with the Otterbox. It's because the screen that comes with the Otterbox is not so durable, and can easily be damaged. Also, the Samsung Note 8.0 screen is thick covered plastic, so you would need a slightly thick covered screen protector to well protect it. Zagg is the best brand in my opinion, and will keep your tablet safe from any scratches.

Yes, it has a screen protector...it does inhibit some of the responsiveness of the screen, so you have to tap a bit more firmly. You shouldn't need two screen protectors unless one is just a film.

I've only had my screen on for a short time, I couldn't get dust, hair, debris out no matter what I did. I found it easier to just remove the cheap 'protector', it helped with the response on my phone as well. You can always put it back on, as it's attached with cheap hot glue.

This protector shield is one of three purchased for new Nexus 7's that were Christmas gifts for grandchildren. It was the worst one of the group and returned unused. My son, whose career is in the computer field, said to return them all. Our neighbor did install some brand on their IPAD and it has bubbles that they can't remove. They are really annoying. My IPAD is first generation and someone left it open on the sofa and the dog walked across the screen. There are a couple of scratches that are apparent when it is off, but they are not a factor during use. I bought the cleaning kit from Apple and clean the screen after every use. The protective case is where money is well spent. This protector shield is one of three purchased for new Nexus 7's that were Christmas gifts for grandchildren.

The kickstand clicks in and can remain unusable until need. Please note that my Nexus 7 cracked in this case w/o being dropped, so after two Nexus 7 cracked there's no such thing as protection. Nexus 7 are poorly manufacturered and unfixable. It costs the price of a new one to replace your display. I know I have two here and two different cases that failed to protect my tablets. Best wishes!

From my experience the protector didn't affect the usability or sensitivity of the touch screen at all. Of course you have to install it yourself so depending on how good of a job you do will really be the deciding factor but if you install with care it shouldn't affect the touchscreen's performance. If you do purchase it just remember that a couple of days after installing it you will see air bubbles which will probably bug you. But they will disappear and you will hardly notice that you have a screen protector on.

I've had the screen protector for a couple months now and I haven't had any issues. I have a wooden back protector and no case idk if you have a case it may make it hotter than if it's naked. Although mine gets warm sometimes I try not to let it get super hot. Hope this helps.

I got an e-mail from the seller not long after giving my review that said, and I quote: "we do hear from some customers that they prefer to put a screen protector on their device in order to protect the screen and create more traction between the device and screen". What I gathered is that it is almost necessary to buy a screen protector if you intend to use this product.
