How's your screen holding up?
 

After about 4 months I'm removing the original cover on my screen, as it is worn. Would someone who removed the cover from day one and has had their N800 for 3-4 months or longer comment on how well does the bare screen hold up to constant stylus pressure. Does the screen show wear, especially along the right edge?

I used the factory screen protector for appx. 1 week, then I installed a slightly- modified psp screen protector. It works great! If you go this route use a Hori brand, it's the best quality. And ALWAYS use a screen protector.

i've never used a screen protector on my n800 and rarely used one on my n770. i've had the 770 forever and the n800 since they came out (i bought a review sample). neither screen shows even the slightest amount of wear. i use the supplied stylus with each, except when i use a pencil (lead) or a ballpoint pen. i carry the nits around in my pockets all the time.

i also have a sony clie palm device that must be at least 4 years old. i used the plastic screen cover that came with it for a few weeks but finally got tired of it. i lost the stylus after a few months and have used any sharp object (pencil, pen, screwdriver, fork tine, rock, etc.) on that screen since then. still shows no damage.

The subject's been covered pretty extensively in the past, so you might be able to glean some useful information from these threads:

There are some others that'll come up if you do a search for "screen protector" but these two probably have the most relevant info.

I've had my N800 for over a year now, and the screen does show some wear on the right.

One thing you won't get from older threads is newer information.

:rolleyes: Like two weeks makes a difference in screen wear.

My 1year+ N800 is still 98% good, without a screen protector. I've (carefully) cleaned it a couple of times.

For mine I bought a 4 € antiglare PSP screen protection and cut slightly the border to make it fit in the Nokia N800. After 4 months of using it with the PSP protector, I can say is worth it. No scratches, perfect visibility, hundred times better than the given protector.

Paying 4 € euros is not so much, give it a try.
