The Nokia "Made for Nokia" SP-NOK01 screen protector is an official Nokia accessory, made by Nokia, and costs £12 at Carphone Warehouse and MobileFun (cheaper online at Amazon.co.uk, Dixons and Play.com). At the price you would expect a screen protector that would cover the entire display ensuring there are no gaps. Even the picture of the screen protector on the product packaging shows it overlaid on a Lumia 800 gave that sort of impression.
Well no. The screen protector is shaped to only cover the 'active' part of the display. Fair enough as it is called a 'screen protector' after all. But surely for the money you would expect better, and I did expect better. In fact the picture of the screen protector overlaid on the Lumia 800 dictates that it should protect the entire display, edge to edge, curved and all. I was do disappointed I did not bother to apply it on my Lumia 800, preferring to retain the shabby screen protector I crudely cut from one that was previously applied on an older phone.

Ah daym, I was hoping this screen protector would be the one, seeing as it's an official accessory from Nokia. Massive disappointment! Are there any out there that cover the whole screen? I've seen some from skinomi but they are for the n9 even though they are marketing it as for the lumia. Manufacturers are getting sloppy.
Skinomi. Covers screen completely. In a dry and wet installation version
Just purchased "MyScreen Protector" for Lumia 800, and have the same issue. I got so pissed i took it off after 2 minuts. Looked like the "official" one in the post and i think that's an outrage.
With such a "designer" phone which sells on style, this is unaccpetable. I'm trusting in Gorilla Glass for now until something better is sold.
Gorilla glass is not scratch resistant, its myth
Glass defo not scratch resistant, I have been careful with it but am now looking for a full length protector now that it has marked.
