Review on Ultimate Protection for Fitbit Charge 4/3/SE: ArmorSuit MilitaryShield 6-Pack Screen Protector - HD Clear Film, Max Coverage & Anti-Bubble by Pat Nard

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good Shockproof Screen Protector

I bought this screen protector for my Fitbit because my previous two Fitbits without a screen protector couldn't stand heavy farm work. Both suffered from badly cracked and scratched screens. I put the ArmorSuit screen protector on my Fitbit Charge 4 before putting it on for the first time. Installation was easy and I left the device 18 hours (12-24 hours according to the instructions) after applying the protector before wearing the device for the first time. Luckily, the kit comes with six screen protectors and enough spray for multiple uses. So I wore my Fitbit for about a month and noticed a few things. First, sliding impacts parallel to the screen surface can cause the screen protector to peel off easily and small bubbles to form around the edges. Second, I work outside a lot and use sunscreen. I've never directly sprayed a Fitbit, but overspray is the death knell for screen protectors. Sunscreen appears to cause a permanent haze that can only be removed by replacing the screen protector. Today I replaced the protective film. It's easy to just peel it off. I've noted below that my Fitbit screen is still like new, so the bumper works well. Installing the replacement was just as easy as installing the original. From now on, I'll make sure I have a Fitbit in my bag before spraying sunscreen or bug repellent anywhere on my body to avoid drifting that causes further problems.
