Yes i did and i hated it. Took it off after 2days. Smudges seems to show more easier with it on. Also the screen looses sensitvity. Since its so thick your finger catches the edge of the screen protector when you try to pull down the notifications at the top.

I ordered both the normal and the HD, but I have only tried the HD ones so far and it's a mixed bag. I absolutely love the feel of the HD ones, they are nice and slick and feel great to the touch, but that's where the love ends. I guess because of the anti-glare coat they have, they have a very fuzzy look to them that makes the screen harder to look at. Also, as mentioned above, they are fairly thick, so if you don't get that thing on perfect it can make it tough to use the drawers at the edge of the screen. I have noticed a bit of sensitivity loss as well. I think I'll be peeling this off and trying the regular ones next, but I'm not too excited because they are definitely "grippier" to the touch which I hate on a touch screen phone!

I hate them. They bubble and smudge and flat out suck.

@kommodore - your opinion counts, but have you tried anything better you would recommend?

Yeah, I got one off of Amazon for about $0.50 plus $2.50 shipping and I hate myself for taking it off to put this bogus ScreenGuardz crap on there.

yikes, you actually have to cut them yourself? I don't think my OCD would ever live with that! = ]

I'm looking for a screen protector that has the feel of these screenguardz HD, but without the anti-glare coating that makes it fuzzy!

There is a cutting guide for it. Just get an exacto and follow the lines!

@Vincent - aren't bodyguardz and screenguardz the same thing except that the bodyguardz cover the whole phone versus screenguardz cover just the screen? What I'm trying to ask is aren't they made by the same company - the same product?
