InvisibleSHIELD Screen and Body Film for the HTC Dream and Magic
Archive note. This story reflects what was known when it was first covered. Prices, availability and carrier offers are historical. For the current picture, start with the topic guides.
What the InvisibleSHIELD is
It is a clear, scratch-resistant film that is applied directly to a phone. It was described as military grade and as giving nearly complete protection against scratches and scuffs, for example from items in a pocket. Unlike a case, it adds no bulk and does not hide the colour or design of the phone.
Body and screen coverage
The film covers both the body of the device and the screen. The author considered the screen the most important part to protect. The trade-off is style, since there is no case or colour option involved.
