For one, I've never used zagg, that is not my picture. I have seen 100's of devices with crappy ass zagg protectors... They all get that "ORANGE PEEL" look to them.

Yup. I saw a Zagg installed on an iphone 5 by the manager of the store. It had major orange peel and bubbles.

Furthermore, if you look at the way they cut it, it's a cheap half-assed job to avoid the demands of a precision cut. Especially around the top speaker: instead of going all the way to the edges for a virtually seamless installation, they cut it so that it looks like horns flanking the speaker. WTF.

With the hype surround the Zagg name, I couldn't believe this was the quality of their protectors.

Furthermore, I don't know why anyone would put up with the orange peel. It completely ruins the beautiful screen the iphone has.

I've gone with and without screen protectors over the years. They've made absolutely no difference over years of use. Of course I only keep my iphone in an empty pocket without keys or anything else, but still...

The above video should be enough evidence that you don't need a screen protector. And if you MUST buy one, buy a cheap one on ebay with a good review/rating. They are most likely the same ones you are buying that are marked up by 5000% and put in a huge shiny box.

The best part about the zagg i saw was the box.

I heard the new 30-pin to lightning adapter does not support iPod controls. I have the BMW iPod interface in my car so it looks like I'm assed out.

Not only their price and shipping time is ridiculous, the fact that they felt a need for such a condescending disclaimer completely killed it for me.

"Due to the nature that iPhone 5 itself get scratches very easily, we are not responsible for any iPhone 5 being scratched accidentally during usage."

They're selling a cable. Why would a cable scratch an iPhone? And if it did, it'd be clearly user's fault, why would they be responsible?

because this is america--people do not take responsibility for their own actions and insist on blaming others for them.

Yup, it's America, everyone is sue happy and wants free hand outs...*cough cough OBAMA cough*


That lightning cable and dock is one of the 100's that will be coming out in the next few months. Maybe then all android fanbois will shut the fvck up about the cable...

Anyone notice how fast the lightning cable charges? I was down to 6% and charged for 30 minutes, I was at 96%!!! Love this phone.

This is one of the MANY reasons ZAGG sucks...Other protectors you can take off and re-apply with no water/bubbles/bs to worry about... I mean a Screen protector that I have to use water on my phone to apply is NOT the screen protector for me.

Response in BOLD...

God, that phone is ugly...

I still stand by my Wrapsol although my buddy bought the body guardz case on amazon and i must say it looks nicer than the wrapsol. It covers more of the phone (goes around the speaker rather than stopping at them) and it's cost effective (2 for 25 on amazon).

I like my otter box

It's a great case and you sure as hell won't break it if you drop it...

But with durability comes increase in size, it's all a personal pref.

That's not true charge.
It may indicate 96% initially, but it will go back to a more realistic number after a few minutes of use.
That happens to most charging devices because of the cheap way they implement the charge indication.

hmmm, seemed to drop at a normal rate man... It was directly plugged into an outlet, I know charging from computer USB is much slower.

Maybe ur right IDK.
