You mean Screen Protectors? I use BoxWave and they are called Clear Touch Crystal. Model # is: BWCT-S731. Click Here for BoxWave

Hope that helps.

Their Writeshields are the best and if you do a search here for the same you will see a LOT of the same opinion.

GOOD LUCK!!

I used PPCTechs and their cutting was not uniform or sufficient, causing me big problems on the install.

The quality is not up to the price.

I 2nd the box wave crystal clear. I'm using it now and you cannot even tell its on there. Hold a vacuum cleaner up to the phone while putting it on to help with dust.

I respectfully disagree with the comments about WriteShields from ppc techs. I have used them for years, and absolutely love the product. The C2 on the i730 is the best I have seen...

Others that are recommended by users here are Boxwave (see above) and Martin Fields.

yeah i got the writeshield for the i730 and its perfect. ive had no problems whatsoever. im actually surprised you had to sue them because they are actually very customer service oriented and the owner of the compnay actually frequents this board...

I bought WriteShields recently and tried to put one on only to find it wasn't cut all the way through and I managed to tear little pieces off of the sides. I had bought a 2 pak and when I went to install the second one found it wasn't cut all the way through either. I used a small hobby razor knife and fixed it up and it looks great.

I was disappointed and let customer service know. They responded quickly and sent me a replacement without me asking. They told me it was a bad batch and that future ones wouldn't have the problem. Given the great customer service response, I am planning on ordering from them again when I need the next batch.

You mean you didn't SUE them??? What are you.... one of those freaks that understands that poo happens now and then and that how it gets cleaned up is what counts??

I've heard of people like you

I just received my WriteShield C2's from PPCTechs. One had a crease on it. I'm waiting to see if they will replace it for me.

It's precut to fit and as long as you put it on with no bubbles you won't even be able to tell its there.

I've had others that diminished the screen brightness, this one does not do that.

You put it on wet, then push the water bubbles out. After that, let the sun beat on it for about an hour. Looks just like the original LCD. You can HARDLY tell.

I got my leather pouch/case from Samsung. I actually love it. Very nice and durable. Easy to get the phone in and out of. I even got a free gift with my order.
