About Phantom Glass:

Phantom Glass is a Canadian based company located in Toronto, Ontario. The screen protector itself if made of Gorilla Glass which is ultra tough tempered glass. Unlike traditional plastic screen protectors, Phantom Glass can take a beating and keep on going. Resisting shock and scratches while leaving your phone in great condition acting as a shield from other elements.

 

Applying Phantom Glass:

This has got to be the easiest screen protector to apply. They state it can be applied in under 30 seconds which is true! Included in the box is a wipe to clean your screen, microfiber cleaning cloth and a soft one-touch applier. I've always hated applying screen protectors, making your screen spotless then trying to line everything up but the worst part are the bubbles! Traditional plastic screen protectors require you to gently apply and spend 10 - 20 minutes removing all the little annoying bubbles. Phantom Glass can literally be tapped on the screen and you will see zero bubbles. It basically applies itself! Quite impressed, I enjoyed applying Phantom Glass. The box includes a 5-step instruction manual, pretty simple.

 

Written Review:

Phantom Glass impressed me... a lot. I can't say that about everything. The current price for the Surface Pro 2 (as of 2015-04-27) is $40CAD. Now you may be thinking, what a high price for a screen protector! No way, traditional plastic screen protectors usually start at $20. They also have to be replaced every year or so depending on the usage which adds up quickly, not to mention how lame they are compared to Phantom Glass. Even other tempered glass protectors cannot compare as they too lack quality and functionality. Phantom Glass states their screen protector will fill-in scratches on your screen making them invisible, guess what? It's true! My Surface Pro 2 has gone without a protector and case for almost a year leaving behind many small scratches and noticeably large ones too. This was amazing, after applying the screen protector they seemed to be invisible. I'm really really happy, no more visible scratches! The nano-adhesive really does its job as well, the first time I applied the screen protector, I didn't have it perfectly aligned so I peeled it off. Wow, it really sticks to the screen which is great and won't allow debris under the edges. Did I mention you can re-apply the protector as many times as you want? Yes, it is re-usable! Phantom Glass fit on the screen perfectly and became unnoticeable when applied hence "phantom" in the name. It's oil and fingerprint resistant which allows for easy cleaning due to the oliophobic coating. I was able to clean my dirty prints in a few seconds without an liquids, just the included microfiber wipe. The quality of Phantom glass is amazing and well worth the money.

 

Conclusion:

Overall, I would have to give Phantom Glass a 5/5. They somehow made a boring screen protector become exciting. I no longer have to worry about scratches, fingerprints and general shocks. I bet you could even apply it over a cracked screen as a quick and easy way to hold the pieces together and prevent your self from being cut. Screen responsiveness feels exactly the same if not better, no issues here. This is the best darn screen protector out there, I'd recommend Phantom Glass any day. Thanks for reading!

Hmm I suppose you're right, after all the contact point in not the screen, but the pen-tip being pressed into the casing... And movement tracking should indeed be no problem.
