But I would recommend avoiding future "tests". :) No Problem, that’s great that it worked, we weren’t brave enough to actually do a drop test. But I would recommend avoiding future “tests”. :)

Somehow, I didn't even see the sentence, "I soon found out that there was yet another layer covering the top of the screen protector as well." At any rate, I'm using this case, and I love it. I tried out the Otterbox Commuter case for the Tour and ended up sending it back for a refund. The rubber around the charging port kept pushing my charger out. That's a good way to brick the phone, to have the charger pushed out while I'm doing an OS update or whatnot. I prefer the Impact case. I've already unintentionally given it the "drop test" and it passed with flying colors. I accidentally dropped my Tour from a height of at least three feet, screen first, onto a hardwood floor. My screen was fine, and my phone was not harmed in any way. Ooops, sorry.

That is why I pointed out that I got confused due to the 3rd layer. I gave it 5/5 for screen protector. And I do like idea of having three layers. Makes installation a lot easier. Most other screen protectors I've come across usually only are packaged with two. But thanks for pointing that out, more people might still be getting confused! Sherri, yes you are correct.

But thanks for pointing that out, more people might still be getting confused!

There are three layers to the screen protector, not two. You peel off the first tab, which is attached to the inside layer of the screen protector to reveal the sticky side. After you attached this side to the screen, you then peel off the outside layer that the second sticky tab is attached to. If the reviewer had to clean off the sticky tab's residue from the protector, that means he's got two layers attached to his screen and failed to peel off the outside layer of the screen protector.
