Let’s face it, there are thousands of kinds of screen protectors for smartphones these days. I personally have paid everywhere from about $2.00 to $30.00 for screen protectors of varying quality for my iPhone over the years. Not all screen protectors are made equal either, each one seems to tout a different feature: anti-glare, extra clarity, multiple Hs of hardness, even extra-oleophobic surfaces. I even ordered “Diamond” screen protectors once thinking that they would be “tough like a diamond” and when they arrived they were so full of sparkles that they considerably obstructed the iPhone screen. To compliment their NuGuard KX line of slimmer protective iPhone cases (that we quite liked) NewerTech recently launched the NuGuard KXs line of screen protectors for the iPad, iPhone, and even Galaxy S4. These screen protectors (or “screen armour”) claim to go a step further in protecting your costly devices’ screens by adding a moderate level of impact absorption into the mix. Does the NuGuard KXs follow in the footsteps of its namesake or does it just blend in with the screen protecting masses? Read on to find out how impactful our impression is of this new screen protection contender.
