Impossible to install, July 26, 2011

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: SGP iPad 2 3G Wifi Screen Protector Steinheil Series [Ultra Crystal] (Wireless Phone Accessory)

I am a relatively careful, detail oriented person. I found it impossible to install this screen protector cleanly. I was working in a clear space, followed the directions, and every time I would lift the screen protector to remove dust specks with the sticky tabs provided, more bubbles would form. After about 20 minutes of maddening perpetual cleaning, I finally gave up and tossed this in the trash. Fastest waste of $25 I have ever encountered. :(

Low Interference, But Squeaky Sound and Feel, June 24, 2011

Yona (Virginia, USA) -

This review is from: SGP iPad 2 3G Wifi Screen Protector Steinheil Series [Ultra Crystal] (Wireless Phone Accessory)

A durable screen protector that is easy to apply and provides decent glare reduction without unbearable reduction in screen brightness and clarity. So far, I am not completely satisfied with this screen protector, nor with the Zagg glare reduction protector I tried previously. My primary complaints about the Steinheil UC screen protector are:

(1) Though the Steinheil protector does not result in as much pixelation as the Zagg protector, there is still a noticeable reduction in screen clarity.
(2) The Steinheil protector gives a bit of a yellow hue to the display, so that white backgrounds appear off-white. I did not notice this color shift with the Zagg protector.
(3) The smooth feel of the iPad screen is completely gone with the Steinheil protector in place. The screen feels a bit rubbery, and scrolling and swiping gestures produce squeaky sounds.

If forced to use the Zagg or Steinheil UC, I would choose the Steinheil, though my preference so far is to go without a screen protector at all. Some glare reduction would be nice, but it appears to be available only in exchange for reduced screen clarity.

This review is from: SGP iPad 2 3G Wifi Screen Protector Steinheil Series [Ultra Crystal] (Wireless Phone Accessory)

I'm not a big reviewer of products, but I saw there were very few reviews of this deserving product so I'm reviewing to help others like me who wrestled with this purchase. Rest assured, it is awesome on the iPad 2! I've installed a few skins over time on my two iPhones, and it's always a pain. Dust, bubbles, etc. But a few things make this product worth the money.

First, the screen is thick. This helps SO much in getting it lined up and placed well, and helps a lot when you have to lift it and re-set it because of dust or misalignment or whatever.

Second, they give you little paper stickers to help you remove dust on the sticky side so you're not doing it with your finger and smudging it.

Third, they give you a thick, gold sticker that you can use to lift up a corner of the screen once you've already placed it and inevitably find a dang dust particle. So basically you place the gold sticker in the corner, lift it up, use the paper stickers to grab the dust particle, then lower it back down slowly, edging out the bubbles. After a round or two of doing this, my install is perfect.

Fourth, the squeegee is great. Just soft enough to not worry you about scratches, and just hard enough to be effective.

Fifth, the cloth provided is large and effective, and works really well with the liquid in removing dirt prior to installing, then off the surface once installed.

Sixth, no rainbowing on the screen when viewed under fluorescent light. The crystal clear screen I have on my current iPhone 4, while crystal clear, does rainbow in fluorescent office light, almost like a light oil spill. This screen is completely without rainbowing. You just can't tell there's anything on it at all unless you look very closely at the camera hole or around the edges or near the button.

All in all, my install is actually 100% dust free, whereas normally I just give up after being unable to remove one or two and just living with it.

You get what you pay for. Get this product if you are considering a screen, you won't be disappointed.

A+ product!

Excellent Accessory, October 18, 2010

This review is from: Targus Stylus for Apple iPad 16GB, 32GB, 64GB WiFi + 3G, iPad 2, iPhone, iPod, Tablet AMM01US (Black) (Personal Computers)

This stylus is smaller and more precise than my finger, and keeps the screen cleaner. It also works with a touch screen mobile phone and easily distinguishes between a touch and a swipe. Best of all is when using Pages or Numbers on an iPad, as one can hit the small icons with ease. The hemispherical tip ensures contact over a wide range of angles so the stylus can be held as one would a regular pen.

The stylus has a quality appearance with a chrome accent and a metal pocket clip. The top of the pen has a small hole through which a lanyard may be attached. It is only available in black, but that does not detract from its functionality. It is an excellent and inexpensive accessory for the iPad.

Update: After six months of daily use, the rubber tip has perished and the stylus must be replaced. Its replacement will be a stylus with a longer lasting polymeric material and not one with soft rubber.

This review is from: Targus Stylus for Apple iPad 16GB, 32GB, 64GB WiFi + 3G, iPad 2, iPhone, iPod, Tablet AMM01US (Black) (Personal Computers)

I have been using a Pogo Sketch for quite some time and I can assure you that the Targus stylus beats the Pogo and every other stylus hands down! In fact, I recently was employed by one of the largest wireless carriers in their marketing department and worked closely with the person responsible for buying all accessories that are sold in our stores. She had tested and trialed dozens of styluses a d had determined that pogo was the best available stylus at the time. Last month, I visited her and showed her the Targus stylus. Like me, she was blown away. She is now going to contact Targus for samples to put through their tests. It works great with iPhone and iPad -- and especially great with Penultimate. It is high-quality and feels great in my hand. It is as thick as a normal ballpoint pen, and the clip is made of sturdy metal (not cheap plastic like the Pogo). The tip is soft rubber, but not at all sticky like some other inferior rubber styluses). Using this on an ipad is so silky smooth and a pleasure to use. Buy this, you will not be disappointed!!

Better than some others, but still not perfect for writing., March 27, 2011

Anjana Nigam (Minneapolis, MN) -

This review is from: Targus Stylus for Apple iPad 16GB, 32GB, 64GB WiFi + 3G, iPad 2, iPhone, iPod, Tablet AMM01US (Black) (Personal Computers)

Here's what I found after trying a multitude of styluses (or is it styli?) after buying an iPad 2. I wanted to use an iPad as a sketch book and the pad like it's name...and go digital rather than filling up notebook after notebook. So the perfect stylus has to feel like a pen and work well enough on the screen to give the tactile feel of drawing or writing on paper.

I learned that styluses tips are of 2 main types - fuzzy fabric and rubber - with some additional quirky ones made of metal (O-Stylus) or even sausage (supposed to work like your finger!).
--Fabric tips:
Pogo stylus- also used by Apple Geniuses - have a fabric tip that's great for typing or selecting or gaming even but not so good for writing or sketching anything more complex than a smiley face.
Sock Stylus - There is a seller on etsy who is selling sock styluses with conductive fabric "sock" stretched over a wooden quill which has been sawed off for the perfect length. I found that stylus a little less sensitive than the Targus and you have to hold it at a certain angle for best results. However, if you're writing pages worth of notes on iPad then it tends to make the hand less tired than the Targus as Targus has a squishy rubber tip that can cause some fatigue.

There are other fuzzy fabric styluses out there sold by small stores - like the ones by the guy who has been advertising on all Mac forums and posting pictures of his store in competitors' item images. They claim that they have the best yet but I haven't tried those yet.
--Rubber tips:
The Targus in question has a rubber tip. Please check my uploaded pic for size comparison against some other styluses.

The rubber tip on this stylus looks pretty thick but is still thinner than our fingers. The problem is that it does block the view when writing or sketching just like our finger. There is also another 2nd gen ACase that has tried to eliminate some of that by creating a longer stylus and a thinner and longer rubber tip but failed to deliver as the thinner tip had to be held at certain angles to write well and became more squishy and less natural.

This Targus has been the best of the 4-5 styluses I tried so far (refer to the pic) overall as it is the most responsive of all and has a matte finish stem rather than ACase's smooth finish which makes it a little less slippery to hold. The iPad 2 is already so slinky, I don't want to worry about dropping the stylus too!! It performed well on Penultimate and UPad writing apps and SketchBook Express the sketching app and captured light strokes as well as the heavier strokes. The performance was a lot better than the Acase 2nd Generation Apple iPad / iPhone / iPod Capacitive Stylus (Jet Black) Newest Modeland a shade better than the Acase 2 in 1 Stylus + Pen for Apple iPad 16GB, 32GB, 64GB WiFi + 3G, iPad 2, iPhone, iPod, Motorola Xoom, Samsung Galaxy, BlackBerry Playbook (Black). And don't even bother trying the really cheap ones 3 Pack (Red + Black + Silver) of Universal Touch Screen Stylus Pen for Apple iPod Touch 2nd 3rd 4th Gen, iPhone 3G 3GS 4th Gen Generation, they're perhaps ok for tapping a little but not for writing or sketching. Although some people have suggested on forums that roughing up the rubber tip of the cheap styluses with a sandpaper makes them work better.

I've also heard good things about the Boxwave and Alupen but haven't tested them so I can't say if they're better than Targus.

So there you have it, Targus was the winner in writing and sketching on iPad but still not the perfect stylus as it is not as responsive as I would like. I'm still looking for that perfect stylus.

Works like a charm. I recommend this item to any iPad 2 owner. Great way to use the GPS feature on iPad 2. I find you need extra items to fully utilize the iPad. This is just one such.

LoveLoveLove this product! It was exactly what I was looking for! It has the pink bubble protection on the inside of the case for both front and back of ipad2. My ipad2 fits snug and is easily accessible with the zipper. The outer pocket has a velcro closing and has plenty of room for a charger or ear buds. The material is great and I love the color! Perfect for storing your ipad2 on the go in a purse or bag. I was happier with this product on amazon.com compared to what apple.com had to offer!
