Product Description
Skinomi TechSkin goes beyond traditional screen protectors, skins, covers, and cases. This cell phone protector is made from clear thermoplastic urethane film – the same film used to protect military aircrafts and NASA space shuttles. It has the ability to resist high levels of abrasion, making it the ultimate protector for gadgets and devices. The film “scratch-proofs” your device without adding bulk like traditional cases. Skinomi TechSkin is designed to provide lifetime protection for your device. If the film ever wears or scratches, Skinomi will replace it for free, for as long as you need it for your device. If you ever need to remove the TechSkin, it peels off easily leaving no residues unlike other screen protectors or skins.

I paid ten bucks for this product and I’m unhappy enough with it that I’m not going to use it. Let’s go over a few things which might help prospects to make an informed decision:
1 – In the product features, there is a mention of non-sticky surface. Let’s clear up two things: first, the non-sticky refers to the side that’s up. The other side that lays on the screen actually has an adhesive. Second, don’t expect the up side to be as smooth as the DROID’s screen itself. It does in fact feel a bit rubbery comparing to DROID’s screen.
2 – In the description it’s mentioned that the product can be removed easily from the screen without leaving residues. In the installation instructions which comes with the product, it’s mentioned that “Removing the film after the adhesive side has dried may cause it to scratch or deform.”
3 – As other reviewers have mentioned, you’d need to be really patient (I’m not). The installation instructions says “Allow 12 to 24 hours after installation before turning on the device” and “Micro-bubbles, streaks, and imperfections will disappear withing a few days”.
Needless to say that I don’t recommend this product to friends.

This screen protector is thick and sticky. To install it, you’re supposed to be ultra-clean, make it wet (great idea: electronics and water), and squeeze the bubbles out, but the result didn’t look good. Since it’s so expensive that you only get a single protector, you can’t try again. I just pulled it off and threw the whole wet, sticky mess into the trash.
The protector is so thick and slick that I don’t think it would have been good even if if it were installed perfectly. I’ve used other screen protectors on other phones and they were easier to install and gave much better results.

Same problem as other 1 star reviews–mixing liquid and electronics is the first risk. Then when applying it, it had a foggy unattractive impact to the screen. After looking at the end result, we tossed it and will go to the verizon store. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY LIKE WE DID. And the lifetime replacements policy is bull as it only applies to scratches and tears and this thick foggy piece of film will never have that problem.

This skin is not worth the extra cost and Skinomi’s lifetime replacement guarantee is very limited. I’m disappointed that this pricey film isn’t any more protective than the cheap film I have on another device. You still have the same issues with bubbles and dust during application and the small paper squeegee included for pushing bubbles out had rough edges and snagged on the skin. There’s no magic here and certainly no reason to pay this much for a protective skin.
Should you decide to purchase this item, know that the installation instructions strongly recommend leaving the battery out of your device for 12 to 24 hours for the screen to set and all liquid to dry. Check your device’s manual first, you may need to back-up your apps and contact info if you haven’t already.
The Skinomi packaging is great. I wish they’d put that much effort into their product.
