no need to pay 380 bucks for screen protector. Am using one that i bough for 50 bucks (5800XM) and it's intact for couple of months.

There is another kind of screen privacy filter which works in a way that display will look blacked when seen from non-straight angle.

Don't fall for it buddy,those a$$holes tried to do the same to me. you can get the same exact screen guard for some 50 odd rupees.

Yes as Desiibond said You have these alternatives too from capdase.

MIRA (mirror Finish available in three tints Silver, Gold & Red)
If your phone is red then the red one looks cool :))

Privacy GUARD
( which cuts down the viewing angle to 35 Degrees, Which is a boon if you want Privacy or a waste of money since it reduces viewing angles)
