Good Screen Protector IF Installed Correctly
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The included installation instructions are not very clear, but thankfully I have a fair amount of experience installing screen protectors. Here is a tip for those who haven't installed plastic screen protectors for smartwatches before: -After applying wipe to adhesive, align the protector the best you can on the screen. -Press down firmly on the protector with the plastic tab still attached. -Take the included microfiber cloth and double it up on top of the plastic tab. -Now use the included squeegee to firmly smooth out the protector. -Remove plastic tab. -Use squeegee to smooth out any bubbles. -When almost all bubbles are gone, use the microfiber cloth one last time and focus pressure where any remaining bubbles are. Be sure to get the edges of the screen so the protector lays flat. -It will take about 24 hours for the tiny bubbles remaining to work themselves out. Take a look at the picture of the finished product. Hope this helps!

Good, but not great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only thing holding me back from rating 5 stars is the install process. Slapping it on the front of the watch is pretty straightforward, but getting it on and aligned correctly and without any dust underneath has proven to be a near impossible task. Not a fan of the adhesive used. A “special” wet wipe to activate the adhesive in order to affix it? I think that in and of itself is the culprit. This is my second install. First one went terrible. Had all kinds of dust underneath. Now that I think back, I realize that the wet wipe itself breaks up a little if wiped on the adhesive surface of the screen protector too many times. It’s just that you can’t have the adhesive side face upwards and not expect any airborne dust particles to stick to it. All the while trying to wipe it and keep it wet (so that you can make minor adjustments) so the adhesive “activates” and then install it. You’d have to get the placement spot on in one try, no adjusting. Next to impossible to be honest. On my second install, the dust got so bad that I had to peel it off my watch and literally go rinse it with a mild soap and water, then reapply and squeegee it until it adhered. The unfortunate side effect of doing that is that now the corners do NOT stay down and I’ll most likely be requesting another replacement under warranty soon. Don’t get me wrong, it protects well and serves its purpose, but the install process could be simplified by providing either a small spray solution like most previous generation Zagg screen protectors or just modify the adhesive so that it can be installed the same way as the dry install protectors. Overall, a good product, but will need replacement soon due to corners peeling up.

It serves it purpose but...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s a tad difficult to get wrapped around the edges like it should be for full protection. Having a “primer” and all that was also a little much compared to what I’m used to - peel and stick. I ended up messing my up when I put it on but it’s still serving it’s purpose, I assume anyway. I’ve bumped it in situations where I feel like the watch would be stratched and it appears that the protector is taking the most of it. I have a corner starting to peel off as well, I can tell a little dirt is starting to get under it and it’s only gonna get worse in time. Due to this I imagine I won’t be able to wash my watch off (if needed) without making it progressively worse. The Apple Watch is new to me and I just wanted SOMETHING on it to help protect it because in my line of work it was bound to get stratched easily. I plan to invest in a better one, or maybe even a case. Would I recommended? I’d so no, but don’t let that stop you from purchasing if you just need something now, like I did.

Not like my other InvisiShields
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have loyally purchased a lot of Zagg screen protectors over the years; I always install them myself and they always last the life of the product. This one has the most irritating installation by far. I followed the instruction word for word up until the past step. No amount of pressure or squeegee finesse was enough to get this thing to separate from its plastic backing without lifting. Afterwards it did not want to stick at the corners for a couple of days. It was an hourly habit to hold firm pressure for 30 seconds per session on the lifting edges for the first 2-3 days. Now, it is finally staying put except for the two corners that inevitably got dirty during this process to make it very obvious a screen protector is in place. See attached photo for the white edge at the corners of the button side. As far as function once it sticks: it has a slightly rippled surface like other zagg screen protectors that I have owned which is part of the self healing surface, which works well. It does not appear to affect touch sensitivity. It reveals fingerprints moderately.

Hardest screen protector install ever
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I worked in Best Buy Mobile for a holiday season and installed hundreds of screen protectors. This one was by far the hardest... You have a wipe that you have to wet the protector with.... No spray like the original, a wet wipe which didn't work well... After squeezing it on I went to peel it back and it was stuck to the yellow backing didn't even stick to the screen. After a second attempt with a mostly dry wet wipe the picture is the best I was able to manage.... Says there are videos online but none that show this wet wipe install on a watch... Have a best buy geek who's installed these before do it for you because I was one but couldn't do it...

Good scratch protection, but Self healing?
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This provides great protection from scratching the face of your watch. However, scratches are not “self healing” as it claims. Also, when taking cloths or coats on and off one corner of the protector seems to always want to come up a bit. I installed this perfectly, I own a phone repair business and have worked at a carrier before. It’s just a flaw having a screen protector, but you can always use some application solution to pull it up and make the corner stick back down. Or even a little spit will get the fuzz off and do the trick.

Apple Watch Series 3 (GPS/Celluar)
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Been an avid apple user for a long time now and had to get the new Apple Watch series 3 celluar! It’s an all around great watch, comfortable and very handy. The only 2 features I wish it had, that I’ve found so far, is I wish the volume would go a little higher for phone calls and I wish there was an “always on” feature. Other then that....such an awesome Watch and now I don’t always have to have my phone with me, especially when I forget it.

Great Clear shield
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It took me a minute to put it on but I did it and it looks good! Maybe the guys at bestbuy can do a better job. What I like about it is that it wraps around sort of covering most of the surface. The glass shield I bought be before didn't do that it was a lot more $30 I think. At first it look good but then it got dirty and you can see the residue forming a square on the screen something you don't want to see on your watch.

Q: QuestionDo I really need this? I know that it's only $20, but......Okay, I have a long rectangular white box sitting next to me which should contain the " Apple Watch™ 42mm Stainless Steel Case - Milanese Loop" that I ordered two days ago. I have been reading the reviews here and still cannot decide whether I actually need a screen protector - and this screen protector in particular. My experience with Zagg has been mixed. On my first iOS device - an iPad Air 2 - it shattered when I tried to lift the bottom left hand corner and I just threw it away. Zagg worked fine on my iPhone 6 Plus and I just received the Zagg protector for my iPad Pro, which currently has a Tech Armor protector, and will be replaced tomorrow. So I trust the brand, and they do have excellent customer service, but they can be a bit dodgy at times - if you click a visual link to the product on Zagg's site, for instance, you get to the dreaded 404 page. I want to take this thing out of the box and just go at it. Is the Sapphire Crystal "good enough" or not? I know that I'll get into the box sooner or later – very much like the kid at Christmas who knows that there is no way that a box that small could contain the Encyclopedia Britannica but dying to see what's in there, nonetheless. Just need three answers - one from someone who high-fived it and couldn't live without the peace of mind that if affords, from someone who hates it with a good valid argument of why it's unnecessary and finally a two-three star reviewer who can make arguments for or against. Thanks.
Asked by cider guy.
- A:Answer I always spend the money to protect my devices so I got this for the Apple watch. It would not stick and got messed up and ended up in the garbage. I know three people with Apple watches and none had protectors. Not one problem with scratches or damage so it really does not seem necessary. Save your money.

Q: QuestionIs it better to have Best Buy install this?I read many negative reviews from guys who only post bad reviews because of the corners not staying down. I spoke with a manager at best buy and he said the reason they charge to install them is because Zagg sends a representative to each store to train the employees on the proper way to install these which then you will get a Lifetime warranty from Zagg so I assume there's a certain method that differs from installing them on a flat surface such as a phone. Has anybody had any negative feedback after Best Buy installed this for them?
