This screen fits the Nexus One phone perfectly. The price is a little steep but there is no need for cutting, just peel off the film and apply to your phone. Also, do make sure you clean the screen before you apply the screen protector and be sure to line it up correctly otherwise you'll get "bubbles" on there.

As other reviewers stated, there is a sticky label on the screen protector and when you peel it off it leaves a bunch of the paper and adhesive behind. It is pretty much impossible to get this off without ruining the screen protector. Otherwise, the quality of the product actually seems good, nice material and good fit. But with the adhesive problem, it makes the product completely worthless.

I received the product very promptly from Amazon in a generic manila padded envelope. It was exactly as expected. I cleaned the screen on my Nexus One, read the instructions and began my application attempt.

As I began the process of applying the lower edge to the screen and using the little included cardboard square to push it down (to even it out) apparently a little spec of some fuzz or something got on the underside of the protector. I tried and tried to smooth out the little bubble it caused but in the end I could not. I removed the protector and washed it off with soap and water (the adhesion is caused by static, so I wasn't worried).

After letting it dry I went through several iterations of this until I eventually said "screw it" and got it nearly perfectly positioned but with one *tiny* bubble near the bottom of the screen. I then tested it out and realized that I could only see the bubble when the screen was inactive (the back light washed it out).

Anways, this seems to be a good quality product but because of the thickness I found the installation of it a bit difficult. This may very well simply be a problem with my installation method (or lack thereof) but it is worth noting. If you feel confident installing a screen protector, and the quality of it is the only question, then I can whole-heartily recommend it.

Installation was a snap, should have started at the bottom of the screen and worked up, not from top down. It's slightly smaller than the screen (still a good size), so creates an edge near the soft buttons. Resists fingerprints, which were driving me crazy. Screen feel is slightly less smooth but not an issue. Touch responsiveness is slightly affected but, again, doesn't seem like it will be an issue. I hope it doesn't get put to the scratch test but I think it will do the job. Nice product, worth the money.

Can't really find anything wrong with it. Easy installation. Great quality. don't know if it will scratch (don't really want to try), but after application you just can't see it. Usually screen gets very dirty with fingerprints, not with this protector. Fantastic!

I have tried out dozens of these types of screen protectors for iPhone, iPod Touch, and now the Nexus One. This is a great product and worth the money.

There is a little paper piece, glued to the screen protector, which is designed as a handle for the screen protector while applying it to the phone. It is supposed to peal off really easily when the screen protector is attached to the phone screen. However in my case the glue that holds the paper handle to the screen protector stayed on the screen protector and it is very hard to remove. Thus making the screen very ugly and practically useless. I regret buying this product and would not recommend it to anyone. I made a picture and attached it to the review to make my point clear. I'll try to get my money back from Amazon.

There is a millimeter or two around the screen that isn't quite covered by the protector, but I don't really see how that's avoidable.

My screen already had significant scratches in one corner from when my five year old slid the phone back & forth across our fireplace brick; now they are almost unnoticeable. It looks as if the glue from the screen protector filled them in and you can hardly see them now even if you look closely.

Quick review:
1) As a previous reviewer mentioned there is a sticker on the screen protector that is supposed to be removed at the end of installation. This sticker does leave a bunch of residue which is quite hard to remove.
2) The screen protector has a weird notch in the upper left hand corner.
3) The screen protector scratches easily. During installation when I was using the supplied softcard to push out bubbles I ended up scratching the screen (has never happened with other screen protectors).

After using this screen protector for one month, it is garbage. Just from daily use in and out of my pocket, the screen cover is so scratched up that I can't stand looking at it. It started scratching within a day of installing it. I've used a Zagg on a previous phone and it was durable and hard to scratch. The Amzer protector fits well and doesn't bubble, but the benefit stops there.
