Yeah, those who frequent military circles will often tell you that "military-grade" usually means "just ever so slightly above bare minimum, to clear approval for mass production."

Ok but as a tech store worker, Zagg aged well. They have a lifetime warranty and are probably the nicest packaged screen protectors with applicator guides. Love em, but WOW that old box is obnoxious

Speaking as someone who has worked with the military, "military grade" just means "its the cheapest thing that requisitions was willing to buy". I'd love to see you look at some of the nuggets I've seen

Idk man, the quarter million dollar F35 pilot helmets look pretty cool.

As someone who has applied hundreds of those Zagg screen protectors, I cannot tell you the level of suffering I felt seeing him slap the thing down onto an absolutely filthy screen. They're not as clear as the glass protectors but they were genuinely great, a huge step above the normal film protectors. They protected against fingerprints and actually kept the screen looking pristine! Actually, artists who draw on ipads nowadays will sometimes use a variation of that protector that makes the screen have a bit of resistance, called a "paper-feel" protector. They're fascinating!

Just saying for those who might not know. Military grade DOES NOT mean it's good. It means it ticked all the boxes of testing and was the cheapest option to do so. The epitome of "good enough".

Exactly. Companies try to make "military grade" sound like a huge deal when in reality military grade means "just good and cheap enough to function" as that's all the military needs.

I worked in the mobile dept at Bestbuy and we installed these, ALL THE TIME! They actually do a fairly good job of protecting the device, cause its not plastic. Its more of a malleable rubber and can really take a solid hit before damaging the screen at all. We would always wash hands, clean the screen, spray the screen, pull the screen protector, spray it, and then lay it down and squegee. I agree it made the devices screen feel like crap, but if you wanted to protect it from damage, you couldnt really get anything better than the Zagg. Also as a note, it stinks cause its not water lol. Its some weird chemical solution that cures under the screen protector and harden it up a bit.

The reason the Invisible shield sold so much is there were kiosks in malls. They offered lifetime replacements. I used the Invisible shield for several iPhones, it protected them from many drops.

Zagg screen protectors are actually awesome. Used one on every phone I had up until my Flip (for obvious reasons) and they work great. They even let you replace them for free if you pay shipping.

I really liked my invisible shield screen protector on my older iPhones, it had a thick, weird feel BUT it protected the screen really well and some of the lesser scratches would actually “heal” over a small amount of time - a huge step above anything else at the time

Agreed 110% man. DankPods was my discovery back in 2022, and his channel makes everything humorous, including lost relics of two decades old mp3 history. Also, happy New year brother and fellow DankPods aficionado. Imagine if DankPods did a review of CRT displays. Man, those Trinitron tube televisions would be great to watch 1990s anime on, such as YuYu Hakusho. Gonna try that anime out this year, as a friend recommended me Hunter X Hunter two years ago, the first anime that made me realize not all anime is trash. YuYu is made by the same guy as HxH.

The ol' safety squints

Fun fact: in some arabic dialects, zagg means sh*t. Which is a great sign of the product's quality.

I’m glad that this was the first video I saw in the New Year. You’re awesome Wade, keep us the shenanigans.

It’s a shame you didn’t try to damage the invisishield - I totally agree about the cheap plastic/rubber feel, that’s why I ended up having a used one to play with, they’re crazy tough

Happy New Years wade ! Thank you for these videos and the work you put on these channels !

Installing screen protectors is an art and as a manager at AT&T I find that most people are REALLY awful at this art.

This Zagg screen protector reminds me of something 3MK sold, a thick silicone-like screen protector that is somewhat self-healing, and can theoretically be taken off and washed. I had that two phones ago because my phone had a stupid curved screen edge, and glass screen protectors would come in two varieties - one that goes only on the flat part and looks terrible, and one with wrong curve radius, so it always cracks along it. The only thing wrong with the thick and soft screen protector was that it would yellow over time. It was in a way better than glass, because it would absorb impacts better.

Happy New year Wade! Keep being one of the most amazing creators on this platform, it's always a blast to watch your content! You're the best!

I actually love Zagg's screen protectors. They're my first purchase whenever I get a new phone.

like others have said those zagg screen protectors were the shit back in the day and still are pretty great compared to a plain Jane screen protector. they'll stop more than you think and even if the screen protectors gets sliced there's a good chance the screen underneath is fine. before gorilla glass became good and glass screen protectors took off this was it especially considering they offered full body protection not just screen protectors for certain devices.

When i worked in a hardware store I would go through glass screen proctors like candy. Mostly due to concrete. The bags would leak, get some of it into my pocket, and then pull out my phone to check the time just to realize that a small piece of gravel hit it just right and shattered the whole thing. Swapping back to plastic bits worked better in that environment.

You reading the invisibleSHIELD's box had me cackling continuously

Holy crud thanks for posting it just turned 12 here and needed something to watch. Happy new year

Love seeing all of the red bars under every one of these videos, I will happily watch these for the 100th time

Zagg is pretty popular. We had kiosks in the mall for them in Utah. I had them on a couple of my phones before Gorilla Glass became strong enough.

loving the free aftershows

I remember using zagg's invisible shield for my Sony Ericsson Satio way back in the day. It lasted really long and I was quite happy with it! But it did start collecting dirt along the edges over time, which is a boo.

The paper toss app was my go to thanks for the nostalgia trip

Happy new year, specially to frank, because she probably doesn't know what a year is

I have one of these Zagg things on my old ipod touch since purchase. The aluminum is still nice and shiny, its basically like new lol, its great! These things were fantastic back in the day before you could really get glass protectors and if you didn't want a bulky case. Gave a little grip, self healing, didn't seem to yellow like the alternative brands. Tricky to install but worth it IMO

Im so happy you're releasing the after shows to the public, it's enough extra content to get us through september.

Happy new year!! Good way to start the new year

WOW nostalgia. This was the first ever screen protector I got back in the day for my ipod touch lol

This is a classic-vibe episode if I've ever seen it❤❤❤

Oh that shelf dock is amazing. Bring it back. Also aurora feint was the best puzzle game I have ever played.

2024 is starting great, happy new year everyone

I love the 5 dollar 3gs that I picked up perfect Ipod with a horrible shifty plastic red case that I won't remove till it ages like fine box wine. Always a good video and very entertaining and informative.

Nice way to start the year, tks man.

I love this episode, it was actually an inspiration for me to pick up an old iPad 2, jailbreak it, downgrade back to iOS 6, and now i've got my little iOS guy to play all the stuff I can't on Android.

Ringing in the new year with a dankpods video I wouldn't have it any other way

I laugh every time whenever the AAs (or AAAs) are yelled out... however the invisibleSHIELD's box is a different level of unhinged (as of writing, everyone is asleep in the house and I'm composing myself so not to *cackle* at 2:53)

Thanks for the extra video and Happy and Safe New Years

this video brought back memories I completely forgot I had

Happy new years to my friend down under🎉🎉

WELCOME TO USE IT Also, one of the things I miss most about my S5 was always having a remote, so if my remote stopped working or I couldn't find it, it wasn't a huge deal. I used to service TVs, and one of the best parts about having that phone is that I didn't need to search through a massive box of different remotes to try to find the ones that are supposed to fit the TV just to test.

Happy new years wade! Have a good one mate!

Was home for the holidays. Me mom had pkcells. You saying "POKCELL" made me laugh at batts. Thanks.

Can InvisibleShield protect mommy and me from daddy when he's been drinking? I didn't think so, so you can't protect against EVERYTHING. Yeah, I'd like to get a refund then.

“We protect EVERYTHING” 🤣

this is the first video i'm ever gonna watch in 2024

Happy New Year, Mate!

LOL I fell for this Zagg product when it was new. Even had the Zagg kiosk install it for me. My phone had dangling plastic sheets after a while. 😅

I remember back in the day before optimization when there were separate apps for iPhone and iPad, since a single application being cross-compatible with a small and large screen was simply impossible in 2010.

happy new years wade!

Hilarious, we sell Zagg InvisibleSHIELD screen protectors at my store. But they're actually glass now. However, we do have another brand called ProtectionPro that is almost identical to this idea, plastic sheets we cut out with a machine and then apply using gel+squeegee. Actually works quite well especially for curved screen phones. Glass protectors for those are completely useless garbage that falls off at the first sign of damage. Then your screen breaks anyway.

I remember I have a case just like the "Use it" One for my 3G when I was a kid.

Happy New Year's 🎉 to all you nugget lovers around the world. 😊

1:08 the Duolingo icon straight from hell

When I was in the army, I put Zagg on everything. Never had a problem and they held up well, even in the desert.

Happy new year wade

I remember watching a Dankpods episode with an ad for Zagg protectors 😅

Optus use those invisible shield screen protectors! You can buy a lifetime replacement thing that they will replace the screen protector whenever it bubbles or comes off. I have a Samsung with the curved screen so I’m always going back about once every month lol

The Apple AV dongle was wonderful it just worked and it worked very well, I wish it wasn't hard coded support in the graphics card.

Oh man, those Zagg gel film protectors, we still offer them at work, we even gave lifetime warranty for application issues. They cost twice as much as the other ones we have, and they have their own cutting machine for them. Then, out of the blue, Zagg stopped offering the warranty (we would send the faulty ones back but not anymore) so we replace them with our own. I mean it's all marketing in the end. I haven't seen any difference between Zagg and the Chinesium ones in terms of feel. BUT: the Zagg material is definitely a step above everything else. That material doesn't tear, unlike the chinese ones. It is actually VERY stretchy.

8:36 "Designed in somewhere by someone"??? Amazing

Students being made to use the old one is so funny I genuinely can’t tell if that’s a punishment or a cool novelty

Hey! I installed tons of these right before glass screen protectors came out!

Happy New Years my Upsidowny friend

I used zagg shield on everything back in the day. I got so used to how it felt it took me a while to get used to bare screens and glass covers, lol. In fact now thinking about them I kinda want to start using them again, I miss the feel.

i still use the zagg style wet apply screen protectors to this day, i prefer them given the in display fingerprint scanners and they are easier to apply than normal plastic dry apply ones.

I’m watching this through a Zagg screen protector with an air bubble I can’t get rid of in the bottom corner. Had to peel it off partially and fish out a dog hair after the first application

5:03 me when I fail again whilst playing Hades

Haha we only have Zag brand at our cellphone store for screen protectors

Wow invisible shield. I had that for my iPhone 3G
