Screen Protector For P900

Go for Martin Fields. IMO, much better than Brando.

There's an enormous difference between the two and it depends on taste.

The Brando's surface is textured. This means that writing on it with the stylus feels much more paper-like. Also, the texture significantly reduces glare and doesn't pick up finger-prints, dust or marks so easily. On the other hand, because of the textured surface, the screen doesn't look as good through a Brando.

The Martin-Fields is much more like the screen. Colours are clear and vibrant but you have all the problems of finger-prints, glare and dust, plus the stylus slides over the screen.

It really is best to get both if you can, try them out and decide which you like best. On the P800, I went for Brando. For the P900 I haven't yet had them long enough to make up my mind but I'm leaning towards the Martin at the moment.

Where can we get them from in the UK ?

I got the Martin Fields from www.mobilefun.co.uk.

The brando I got from them direct Shop.brando.com.hk

Not sure, but www.p900er.com might have them if you want to get them both from the same place.

upon having a screen protector on, do you manage to remove ALL bubbles and dirt from between the protector and the screen?

Ahh. Now there's a trick. I could suggest cleaning the screen thoroughly beforehand with a lint-free cloth and a small amount of glass cleaner, or fitting it in the bathroom with the taps running (to remove dust from the atmosphere). But I've found trial and error works best.

I tend to slide one end of the SP into the top end of the screen and then smooth it down towards the bottom, removing any bubbles with a cloth as I go, but I'm sure many others have their own ways of achieving this horribly tricky feat.

There's a screen protector made by Fellowes that I have been using for nearly a year now... It fitted perfectly on my P800 and now my P900. Its sold in several electronic stores in my area. I don't think most Pxxx new about this because the product it was manufactured for was never popular nor still in production.

i wanna get the fellowes cause i can get them at compusa by me instead of waiting for the protector to ship, but what model where they for? do they make 'em for p800/900 or did u buy ones for a palm that fit? let me know cause i wanna pick 'em up tonight thanks

Fellowes makes nothing for Pxxx series phones. They were designed for the Samsung 1300 units. I stocked up on them at Circuit City 2 weeks ago because that model is no longer in production (so stock might be limited at this point). This brand (12pk) was convenient for the fact that I could walk to about 3 different stores withiin a 3 mile radius to find one. I think its the only Fellowes sp that fits the Pxxx phones. I just simply bought one about 10 months ago @ a CC store and tried it. To my surprise it was a perfect fit and I did not have to trim anything at all.

Hey i just ran to staples and picked up belkins clearscreen overlays for hp ipaq 1910, they dont fit but i cut them to fit, only took me 2 overlays to get it correct, and now the screen is lookin real look, and i got lucky no dust or dirt undernearth. hope the overlay doesnt scratch when i try to enter text like the origional protector that came with the phone.

Thanks very much for help me choosing screen protector for my P900. I'll go for Martin Fields.

Thanks again😉

A simple and foolproof method of applying the screen protector is as follows.

1. Clean the screen.
2. Mix some washing up liquid in a bowl with water. (Two drops to a cup full of water)
3. Remove the protective film backing.
4. Dip the protector into the liquid.
5. Put a few drops of the liquid onto the screen and spread over the surface.
6. SLIDE the Protector into place on the screen.
7. Smooth down and mop up any liquid with tissue.
8. Let it dry in free air. (one hour MIN)

No bubbles, no dust, no misplaced film.
This works with all adhesive films on smooth surfaces.

water? on my screen? IMHO.. no way..
What if it leaks to the side and goes under the LCD?

What I normally do is:
1.) Make sure there is no source of wind anywhere around my workd area, if possible I wear a germ protection mask to stop you from breathing on the screen protector.
2.) Peal the screen protectors backing from the top, but not fully, make sure to only expose the top part.
3.) Align it with the phone/pda from the top also, then stick it.
4.) Once you get the top part on, slowly peel and stick the rest till you reach the end.

REMEMBER: dont peel the backing right away then apply the protector, this will cause dust particles to stick to the protector.

You are correct to avoid seepage, but you don't use that much. Just enough to damp the surface and allow the film to slide. Which is does easily.

But how do you control the water? even just a few drops mite spread to the side and immediately go in the phone..
