Switcheasy Pure (New switcheasy screen protectors)

[Crevice]

Just went to switcheasy and saw they have 3 new screen protectors. Has anybody ordered these? I am curious to see how the anti-glare one is.

[Merlosso]

How about a link so we don't have to go searching for what you are talking about? ;)

[Bobioden]

Here you go. Switcheasy Pure (http://www.switcheasy.com/products/Pure/Pure.php). It looks OK.

I figured you were smart enough to figure it was switcheasy.com or at least use google and provide a link yourself if it bothered you so much ;)

[Bobioden]

$13 for a screen protector seems pretty high. When PS is $7.50 and SGP is $6.

Well, by the time I got a new browser open, went to Yahoo, searched for Google, and was ready to search for the product you mentioned, I forgot the name of it so I gave up. :D

But seriously, these look nice. I'm using the Power Support Anti-Glare and while I love that it does not smudge like the naked screen, I really don't like the frosty look. Hopefully someone has tried these and will give their opinion.

And Bobioden, thanks for the link.

Good point, as it doesn't show in their website on how many screens are included so pre-assumption is there's only one. I wish someone could offer their thoughts or a review for this screen. I'm also looking forward to swap my PS Anti-Glare for a better one.

Maybe I missed something, have you read from their website that it said two pieces included?

I sent them an e-mail about it so far. No replies yet.

I agree, I checked and read everything I could on the site, and no where does it say 2 pieces are included. What are we missing?

Excellent, thanks for those links. It is strange that Switheasy doesn't supply this info on their site. I just might give them a try. I am sure itsmemorphious will have a 45 minute video of the unboxing, followed by a hour and a half review video. :)

I LOVE his reviews, just wish they were a tad shorter.

check out MikeyD3g's review about Pure Reflect on youtube
i don't have a link for that right now
sorry :(

Ingenious advertising on the reflective one.

[cmooreou]

ok, i found on the website that the mirrored shield only comes with one, the anti comes with two, and the pure protect comes with three. click on the picture above "everything but the kitchen sink" to see for your self.

There you go, they updated their website finally. Its still odd how come we have to click the picture before we could determine how many films are included.

Pure Reflect - 1pc
Pure Anti-Reflect - 2pcs
Pure Protect - 3pcs

Wow.. err I don't know what to say..

Switcheasy made a boo boo?

[raghav.chowdhry]

which one is better - switcheasy pure reflect or pure anti reflect ??

[Rayfire]

which one is better - switcheasy pure reflect or pure anti reflect ??

Depends on what you prefer.

I'd rather go for the anti-fingerprint film of theirs, which is the Pure anti-reflect. I don't want to have a screen which is full of smudges and fingerprints.

[raghav.chowdhry]

thnx rayfire...looks wise which one is bettr??

IMO I don't like a "mirrored effect" on my iPhone, that's why I avoid Pure Reflect, but like I said its your choice. I already said what I preferred even though it has that grainy effect.

[zombieflanders]

Has anyone tried the Pure+ for the iPhone 4? The AR version looks good, but how does it deal with fingerprints?

[spartanrob]

So the only difference is the Pure + comes with a back, right.

Be curious to see the reviews of the AR version and a confirmation that there is 2 in the pack.

The anti-fingerprint one will have a "pixelated" look to it. You'll still be able to see the screen quite well but it will look a little "off".

The mirror protectors look very nice however, outside even with a little bit of sunlight, it's almost impossible to see the screen even on full brightness. Very sunny day you won't be able to see anything on your screen.

I usually wind up with the clear since it's a good "in between" protector. Does get a little greasy at times but the Retina display shines through the clear ones really well.

Here is my post I started on Sunday. Pure+ Anti-Reflect on my wife's iPhone 4. http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=982245

I received my Switcheasy Pure Anti Reflect ipad screen protector yesterday and threw it in the bin today. The protector spoiled the beautiful screen display of the iPad by making the screen slightly grainy as if looking through a thin fog.
I have a switcheasy clear screen protector on my iPhone which is very good but I don't recommend buying the anti reflect version. hope this helps.

Just got my Switcheasy Trim and I ordered the Pure+ crystal kit to get the back protector. I got 2 Pure's with the Trim case and 3 more with the kit. I used one from the Trim case for this review along with a back from the kit. I am like many on here as I have tried almost all the different screen films out there.

I have tried both SGPs. The Crystal is ok but IMO too thick. If you had a case that had a lip it caught on the edge and bubbled easier. It also scratched easier than any other film I tried. The Oleo was probably the clearest but it showed smudges and fingerprints like most others after a few days. Still I liked it better than anything else I tried. My only other gripe about SGP was the camera cut out. I like the films with a separate hole for the camera and not one large hole.

I tried both PS Crystal and Antiglare. These are tough to beat for 1 reason, the application process. They also have the good camera cutout but the home button cut out is too large. Don't like that. The crystal is just a touch below the SGP Oleo for clarity but it may be placebo. The Crystal does show scratches easily too.

I tried Speck. Nothing to say here. Not terrible but not really good either.

I tried Griffin and these were surprisingly good. As a matter of fact, I think the Griffin and Pure may be the same. The issue here is the price at a local store of $20 but you did get three.

That brings me to the Pure. I put the Pure back protector on and thought I was going to be disappointed overall. It went on fine but did not seat around the camera perfectly. That actually went away after a few hours though. The I put the front on. This film is of the same thickness of the SGP Oleo and not a super thin flimsy one but not too thick either. It does not have the same application process of the PS though but just the standard 1-2 process. +1 for the PS vs the Pure. The cutouts are great. The Home button is perfect and not enlarged. +1 for the Pure vs the PS. The camera cutout is the same as the PS. +1 for the Pure vs the SGP. The film is perfectly clear. I mean clear. It took off an SGP Oleo to put this one on and I can't tell any difference. The other thing that is great is it is as smooth as the bare glass. Its almost like it has a coating on it. It does show smudges though but no more or less than any other crystal protector.

Overall I have to say I would go with the Pure over any other clear protector. I do like the PS application process better but everything else about the Pure is better. Also considering the Pure is less expensive for 3x the films, it makes it a no brainer.

I'll stick to my PS Anti-Glare until it's toast.
