Well worth buying!
Only took 10 minutes to install.
Air bubbles take a 4 to 8 weeks to disappear, not just a few days.
The desk and car docks from Google don't work with the full clear armour install as the phone becomes too wide for the desk cock and the car dock clip tends to make the the top section move. If you do have these docks only use the screen, top back and around the trackball sections.

Recommended protective cover
Putting the case on itself as everyone mentioned is tough but once its on and it finish its drying process the case turns out great. only thing wrong with it would be that the corners still somewhat shows and that can be bad if you happen to drop your phone. Recommended.

on the fence
it took me about 2 hours, a lot of sweat and frustration to put the case on. it consists of several parts and as parts get smaller they become increasingly difficult to install. there are gaps 1-2mm wide between the different parts, so the phone is not covered 100%. in particular, the gaps are at the corners of the phone, whereas i think the corners are the most sensitive/scratch prone parts. i have both google desktop and car docks. fitting into a desktop dock is very very snug, you have to squeeze the phone in just right. fitting into the car dock is easier, but the clip that holds the phone in the car dock sits right on the front top piece of the cover, dislodging it slightly. i imagine this cover will do a decent job of protecting from scratches, but definitely not from falls onto concrete. time will tell how good this will work. i got a gelli case that i'll be ready to put on if i feel this armor is not good enough.

worth it
minus 2/3'rds a star (rounded down) for a couple small things
-STILL (almost) 5 STARS-
only functional 'issue' is barely even that; fingers must be completely dry for smooth movement on the faceplate, the rubbery feel that is so great on the rest of the case makes for too much traction on the touch screen
extremely difficult to apply -first time-
even with the various videos online(from casemate and others) it takes A LOT practice,
LEAVE THE FACEPLATE TILL LAST, start with the small parts on the back and work up
i have the idcase over the cleararmor so i expect them both to last nearly forever,
however i do think the next time i'll get the application perfect

Product Questions & Answers
Q) does this case protect the screen too?
will it fit into a desktop or car dock?
A) The front and back of the device are protected with Clear Armor. In regards to the docking, it would depend on the dock. If the dock is very form fitting or snug, although the film is very thin, the Clear Armor may not allow the device to sit properly in the dock.
