It seems good but...
I'll start at the beginning. The screen protector came in a tube with a spritzer, a black lint free cloth, a rubber scraper to get the bubbles out and to smooth it on. It looks very professionally put together. Following the instructions, I turned off my device and went online to follow their website's video step by step. In my opinion this application process is very well designed and it aligned easily. Being perhaps a bit obsessive over the exact placement of protector and ensuring that there were absolutely no specs of dust seemed to be made a relatively simple task given the instructions and tools provided. However, this is where I begin my caution. My screen was perfectly clear and perfectly placed and I went to bed satisfied. I woke up the next morning less so. Because the application process involves wetting the screen protector, it can attract and trap dust behind it without you noticing. (Think device off, black screen, nearly invisible wet dust) Several annoyingly placed pieces of dust now distract from the otherwise beautiful nexus 7 screen. I will point out that it also had many microbubbles at this point which I have read negative reviews about. They disappear after 72 hours. Now onto the touchscreen sensitivity. The New Nexus 7 has an amazingly responsive touchscreen. The first 48 hours saw a significant reduction in that sensitivity as the screen took time to completely dry and work out its microbubbles. After that point its gone back to being more responsive, but it just doesn't seem to be as amazing as it once was. In regards to the self healing and fingerprint free promises of the company, this thing doesn't work miracles, but with that in mind, it does seem to deliver. So as a final thought, I had originally written this as a two star review but I realize that I was likely just a bit miffed at the dust spots on my screen that I keep staring at while I'm typing this so I upgraded it to a 3-star. I know that the company stated to perform the placement of the protector in a dust free environment, but in reality, is there anyone who readily has access to one and would take the time to do it there? As a suggestion to the company, I would recommend adding in a warning about the pieces of dust being attracted to the wet surface in your video and to tell users to perform a very thorough inspection of the back of the screen protector before they place it onto a black screen. If you are a potential customer reading this, I would say buy it and be even more careful than I was! (perform the application under as bright of a light as you can find)

felt great, but didn't stick
I have used the wet-application screen protectors before, so I don't consider myself unfamiliar with the application process, and I watched and followed the YouTube example by Skinomi as well. I applied the screen protector and all was well for a couple days over a weekend.When I started using my Nexus 7 LTE for the following two weeks, I noticed that it started to produce bubbles underneath (they weren't there before), but I brushed it off thinking I could re-squeegee the bubbles out. Then I went on a trip and kept my tablet in the side pocket of a computer bag. When I returned home and pulled the tablet out, the screen protector had stuck to a bunch of receipts and papers I had in the same pocket. There was no re-applying it anymore.It lived for about two weeks, peeled itself off, and I therefore threw it away. I need a screen protector that stays on, and this apparently wasn't the one.

Easier to install than I imagined
I love this thing. I've never bought a screen protector because I thought they would be hard to install, look bad, and serve no real purpose. But, someone that looked like a real computer nerd recommended this product to me and he made me feel so stupid for not already having one that I bought this immediately. Thanks to Amazon Prime my product arrived before I even had time to regret my purchase. The box is really fancy and if you love packaging then you should buy this just for the box. The instructions were super simple, they looked so simple that I was certain that there was no way it was going to work. I was so wrong. With a simple spritz and careful squeegeeing I was done. It looked great at the outset and the one little bubble that I had disappeared by the next morning. I also didn't anticipate loving this surface so much. There are never any fingerprints and it is somehow slicker than glass; somehow I swipe with both greater speed and accuracy.In short, this product is tremendously better than I ever imagined!

Ended up in the trash
This was the worst screen protector I've ever bought. It comes with an empty spray bottle and instructions say to use solution on the adhesive. No idea what I was supposed to put in there, but when you put the protector down you end up with a thousand bubbles all over it and there's no way to smooth it out. I'm usually pretty good at putting protectors on my tablets, and this one was impossible. Huge waste of money. Put it in the trash and seriously regret buying it.

great product except...
Forget about a zagg. Skinomi has a better feel to it and seems to get less dirty as time goes on. Only thing I didn't like was the one I ordered that was a full skin because the back protector is just a sticker

Performs well.
The surface of the film came in slightly bubbled up because it was rolled up. There were some indentations as well, but I expect the film to take a beating from daily abuse.

broke my new nexus 7
I followed the YouTube video from the website. After I waited one day, I saw that my tablet pixles was ruinded. I bought the tablet two days before I applied this product. I'm guessing I was just unlucky.

Easy install, would buy again
Installation was pretty easy although the solution was empty. Luckily I had some from another kit. Since it was installed it is working great. No complaints.
