    Default I never asked for this blob in the middle of my screen protector

    Have you ever spent forever painstakingly putting a screen protector on a phone or handheld console only to find a big ol' hair or something under it?

    This has happened to me with my phone and it is BOTHERING ME

    What do you do in these situations?

    This generally doesn't happen to me

    It can be frustrating to try and iron out a bubble or pull a hair out from underneath. My big thing about that is just trying to make sure I don't get fingerprints on it in the process. I usually wash my hands before dealing with that.

    I don't use screen protectors. I like to live life on the wild side, you see.

    i trap little fartlets when i apply screen protectors at the phone place i work at

    they see the bubble and politely say thanks for the free screen protector and i know they'll adjust it when they go home and get a faceful of butt gas hahaha ha

    This reminds me that I probably need a new screen protector for my phone. It was fine and smooth when I first put it on, but now it's covered in little air bubbles (probably from how many times I've dropped the damn thing).

    My future is fuelled by the fires of words, wit and companionship.

    Last night I tried putting a screen protector on but gave up pretty quickly. I don't know how the French guy did it so perfectly without bubbles. He also demonstrated the protector he had by stabbing the phone with sharp scissors. It didn't leave a scratch. I need to to back to France and get that screen protector...

    Yay, I know you are not a big fan of protection.

    Yes this happens to me. But the only reason I put them on is to make sharky happy so I really couldn't care less

    I didn't know screen protectors were a thing.

    As long as there isn't a crazy big one or a bunch of little ones, I don't mind. I'll use one on my phone, but that's about it. I don't even have a case for my iPod, which is apparently a rarity from what I been told.

    I can't stand having anything stuck on my screens, I have to have the glass exposed! And when it gets scratched, that is life, but at least I don't have a sticker on the screen

    I don't think I've ever gotten scratches on my phone screen. I've cracked one by dropping it, but I don't feel like dropping a phone would scratch the screen unless you dropped it in a very specific way (I drop my phone a lot). Do you guys who use screen protectors keep your phones in the same pocket as your keys or something?
