Are these more like the Power Support crystal films?

After using PS crystal films on my 3G and 3GS and now trying these for the Iphone 4 because the PS won't be available till the end of July, I would wait for the PS.

The fit is much better. When I had them on, I could barely tell they were even on the screen.

The SGP has had some issues from what you can see. Dropping the ball and not providing a cutout. And now for me they don't seem to be replacing the ones that didn't get a cutout for the front screen protector.
 
Website says *WITH FLASH CUT OUTS but only on the Ultra Fine Matte protectors. I would like to get the EX Anti-Fingerprint fullbody but it is out of stock. I have a PS crystal on my 3G, glossy and shows oil and fingerprints way too easy. I read a review that showed the PS anti-glare makes the pixels look too soft with more texture than the SGP. I think PS dropped the ball not having product available on launch day. SGP seems responsive to correcting the "problem" so I think I'm going to give them a try. Now do I order the Ultra Fine Matte or wait for the EX anti-fingerprint FB to come back in stock? I heard a rumor of next week. Hopefully they will specify whether or not they have corrected the cutouts on ALL models.
 
so they are just replacing the products that have the back film?

Nothing for the ones that just ordered a front screen protector?

I didn't see an email from them. Maybe cause I just got a screen protector.

If that's the case, I'll take advantage of the 30 day money back guarantee and send it back. I'll wait and see if they do fix it.

It's obvious the front needs a cutout too for the front facing camera.

Yep, my response to their email.

Thank you for replacing the defective product. I appreciate the customer service.

However, doesn't the front protector also need to be replaced as it does not have a cutout for the front facing camera? The front crystal clear LCD protection film I received in my Ultra Matte package just has a slot large enough for the speaker. I was expecting this slot to be larger and not cover the front camera.

Oh and one other suggestion... for confidentiality reason, you should really blind copy (BCC) your customers on mass emails.

Thank you

 
looks like they updated their site again with new products and with pictures of back with the flash cutout

Can you provide a link to that diagram? The one I see doesn't have the front camera or rear flash cutouts.

Thanks. Let us know if they respond. It seems like non of the front screens have a cutout for the front camera.

The ZAGG invisishield has the longer off center cut on the front. And they have the flash cutout on the back!

 
Installed the EX Ultra back protector and took a flash shot in the dark. There is some minor blue tingeing at the edges of the photo. Nothing like I had with the Speck Candyshell but annoying enough that I'll be requesting the updated version with the flash cut-out.
 
Finally got around to installing the front shield of the Crystal EX and I'm not liking it. Feels like it catches my finger when swiping.
 
do you tend to have sweaty hands? Can you post pics?
It is somewhat muggy today but when I compare an old 2g phone with a powersupport crystal shield with the iphone 4 and SGP Ex Crystal side-by-side, the Powersupport film is *much* smoother to swipe.

Swipes just fine to me, but is the PS any clearer?
 
I have the PS crystal on my 3g and it is pretty much invisible. You can't tell it's even on there. Only problem is it gets just as much smudges as the glass does without it so I'm constantly wiping it with a cloth. That's why I want some kind of oleophobic anti-fingerprint protector.
 
PS is pretty much 100% clear.

SGP is only about 90%. Check my previous posts in this thread.

Ah ok. I'll probably buy a PS to try out when its available. I just hope the install is as easy and as clean as the SGP was for me.

This is what I got back, but no mention of the front camera cutout...Must be too tired :S

Our deal SGP customers,

I again apologize for having your email address visible to other buyers, I was completely aware that your email address would be in BCC but I guess I was mistaken.

Yes, I made a big woopsy. It was a great human error, and I apologize you all for that. I guess I was too tired from pulling all nighter this entire week while trying to work in all department and yes, I'm working now too.

Everyone including myself is excited about iPhone 4 and its accessories and I wanted to make our product to meet your expectations.

I would be very pleased and honored if you could accept it as human error. I Apologize for causing you such problems AGAIN! and I wish you a great day! Thank you

Sounds like this guy is tired of having to apologize to everyone for what happened.

Anyone else heard anything yet about the EX Ultra Clear front screen camera cut-out???
