I got 2 of the Brando's, I can't say that I'm very impressed with the anti-glare protection. Does anyone else have experience & opinion with the Brando compared to the Boxwave that they can share? TX

[bump] Just curious if it's worth me getting a Boxwave for comparison? tx

see this below:
http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...8&postcount=19 for an account of feedback. Unfortunately, that post did not comment on the anti-glare aspect; which is what I want to know.

if you decide to get something else for comparsion, would appreciate your feedback. thanks

No problem. I've ordered a Boxwave anti-glare & I will definitely post my comparisons between that & the Brando.

Well, I got the Boxwave & I have to tell everyone here that IMHO the Boxwave wins 100% as far as anti-glare protection goes. I can actually use my N800 out doors now. I highly recommend them. And the delivery from HK to Canada was pretty impressive too :).

Aren't you mixing them up? Brando is from HK.

I purchased a PDair Screen Protector when I first got my N810. All I have to say is....CRAP. I had heard that the N810 was legible under sunlight before I purchased, so the anti-glare wasn't the first thing I looked for. It's great indoors and obviously in low light, but once it's outside, I have to jack my brightness all the way up and shield it with my hand. Anyway, bad decision. I would only recommend this to my worst enemy.

:) :) He he, you're right of course. I've ordered so many things lately I'm starting to lose track. Washington is a little closer to me than HK. :)

I actually have a PDAir ss too, never used it 'cause I had already ordered the Brando one before I got it. Just as well judging from your experience. TX

Sorry about the Brando SPs Grog... I'm using one right now and don't have any problems using my N810 outside at all - my husband is using one on his N810 too and he uses the gps in the car without issue. Are you positive that you ordered the anti-glare? I know that they also sell "Crystal Clear" SPs. I'm having a hard time imagining what more anti-glare would look like for the Boxwave's vs Brandos.


Regardless, I'm glad to hear you're happy with your Boxwave SPs. I'm very sorry again that I referred you to a potentially inferior product.
