I still think that iPhone is the best designed piece of consumer electronics – ever. It is elegant, highly functional, and very light and compact. Which is why I hate putting any extra accessories and protectors on top of it. However, over the years I’ve dropped my iPhone(s) quite few times, and even though there has never been any serious damage, those rough physical impacts have left their mark in terms of various small scratches and bumps. So in the end I cannot but resort to using screen protectors and cases.

Here is my breakdown of various aspects of this Generiks screen protector.

Application – 4 stars. All these screens are relatively hard to install, and I have never managed to get the job done right on the first try.

Protection – 4.5 stars. The screen seems pretty scratch resistant and thick. However, it will acquire its own share of scratches. You will probably need replacing it after several months of use.

Anti-glare – 4 stars. The screen manages to substantially reduce the glare in broad daylight, but it doesn’t completely eliminate it.

Screen vibrancy – 4 stars. Having this screen protector on your iPhone 4 or 4S will definitely diminish a lot of the beauty and color vibrancy of that display.

Anti-fingerprint – 4 stars. The screen protector still attracts a fair share of fingerprints. It’s better than the iPhone’s screen in its own right, but not by much.

Price – 5 stars. It’s really hard to beat $7 for three screen protectors, which is the price for which this pack sells for right now on Amazon.

Overall impression – 4 stars. It’s a decent, inexpensive screen protector. It will definitely improve your phone’s life span.
