I am about to pick up a sensation.
I had a Vibrant for a year and a half and the phone even with Gorilla glass had some surface scratches.
I am looking for the following
1)I want to not deal with finger/cheek prints
2)Glare I do not care about, but it seems like most screen protectors that are anti oil are also the dithery looking anti glare ones.
Tell me what you use, and how os it on oil?
I just ordered some cheap ones from eBay. I don't know why people buy the clear protectors and deal with finger prints. Anti-glare, anti-fingerprint is the way to go.
I also ordered mine on ebay. I hate Finger Prints!!!
The reason why people buy clear protectors is because the anti glare and the clear both have a pro and con....the clear ones give u the full resolution of the screen but leaves finger prints...anti glare gives u no fingerprints but pixelizes the screen a bit

I've tried anti-glare ones from a few different sellers and the best I have found were from zydistro unfortunately they only carry mirror ones currently
They only cover the usable part of the screen but are very easy to apply and are very finger print/cheek resistant I have had mine on for over a month. Another positive thing is that the anti-glare doesn't rub off and turn into a regular screen protector like some other cheap ebay store's products have done for me.
I've gotten mine from Bestskinsever.com. The protector on my Sensation still looks great, and it's been on since I got the phone when it first came out last summer.
I first used it on my original mytouch 3g, and it lasted for about 2 years...

I bought mine for 7€ (6 pieces). These are the best protectors I've ever used. The screen reflections are almost gone. The good point is that you don't see your own fingerprints. And it has the best behavior when you read text as it is almost the same clear view on the screen. Other antiglare screen protectors turned white into grey or made small, rainbow-colored dots.
Don't know if you can get them in the US, cause I bought mine in Germany.

Skinomi are the best screen protectors by far, a bit difficult to put on if you've never done it before, but just go to a local car parts shop and get a 3M squeegee (rubber one that looks like a credit card size) and install it yourself. I did it last night on my sensation going from a zagg protector, this one is much more smoother when moving my finger over it, i love it.

They do not have any anti-glare ones on their site.
So THAT'S what they're called! I've always seen this type of screen protector, but I've never known how they were different. They were always also easier to use, as my finger would slide better, as opposed to the shiny screen protector I have now. Thanks so much! I just ordered some off eBay, hopefully they work well!
The screen protectors came in today.
Packaging: The 5 screen protectors came in an envelope with a stamp saying "pictures do not bend". Overall the packaging is not awesome but adequate. Each screen protector came in a plastic wrap and included with a cheap dry towelette thing to wipe the screen.
Installation: Overall the application went fine but I got 2 small air bubbles around the edges of the screen that I cannot get rid off due to the curved glass. I tried to warm up the screen protector with a hair dryer but it didn't help. I don't really mind because the bubbles do not affect the view-able part of the screen.
Quality: this is one of the better screen protectors(anti-glare) ones that I have tried. There is some dithering look but not too much, it seems to do well with fingerprints and glare, much better then without it.
Overall I would highly recommend these, but because they're coming from HK shipping times are long.

Your favorable review, caught my attention and the price is very good...

Lexerd anti glare
http://www.amazon.com/Lexerd-Sensation-TrueVue-Anti-glare-Protector/dp/B004YKYB84
After messing around with a couple of subpar screen protectors, I got these off of amazon. The price may be a turn off for many, but to me they were worth it. Fits the curve glass just fine. Application was super easy, even comes with finger gloves to protect from finger prints. I would say the fit is 99% perfect.
Thanks for the pics Calcvictim the protector looks really good, especially for the price.
It also doesn't seem too foggy, like many anti-glare protectors.
Hiepxhop, could I also trouble you for some pics of the Lexerd protector? Many good reviews on Amazon, and I've heard good things about that brand before...
thanks!

I also use the Lexerd screen protector, and it has worked out pretty well. Part of the top lifted up and lint got into it, but that shouldn't be an issue if you use a case. (I didn't at first)
Yes, there is the pixelated rainbow effect in the whites, but I find the feel of it completely worth it. If I could find a link for that German one I wouldn't mind trying it out.

WHAT SCREEN PROTECTOR TYPE IS BEST?
CLICK HERE FOR MY CONCLUSION
(or go to post #14)
====================================
(original post below)
Please share your experience with "antiglare" screen protectors if you have or had used one and help me make my mind?
I have a cheap standard/glossy $1 screen protector for now, but since our phones have screens basically unreadable in the sun I think the kind of s.p. matters more than in other phones case
I had one of the first "mirror" screen protectors few years back, and it was horrible. It made the screen appear slightly distorted. Has this been improved by now?
I used the antiglare type of screen protectors on my evo and evo shift and i loved them and refuse to use any other kind, but they have their drawbacks. Number 1 is it washes the screen out just slightly so its not as crisp and colors are a bit more dull. 2 it feels werid and its hard to explain how they feel its like your finger slides really easy because its a really slick surface, but the surface also feels rough. Like i said i loved them and i might see about getting one for my doubleshot.
*edit*
Also just remembered that the anti glare screen protectors aren't as prone to fingerprints on the screen which is a major gain

I already have hard time seeing my screen outdoors and can't see it at all in the sunlight, so I guess antiglare s.p. isn't for me... Too bad I already ordered it on ebay If you still want it I can send it to you once it arrives here (should be next week - and sending from Canada to US outta be way faster than ordering it from China to USA) just PM me

Ditto to just about everything you said. I personally use the antiglare just for the sole purpose of not having to constantly wipe fingerprints with my shirttail.
It for sure a strange texture to the touch at 1st but actually is smoother and more precise than the glossy kind.
Yes, it does dim the display and make it a bit less vibrant, but I turn up the brightness a tad and it is fine.
All in all, I personally prefer the antiglare just for the fingerprint resistance. Enjoy yours when you get 'em!
Well, the antiglare screen protector arrived today already, and I am actually pissed and I love it too
I haven't test it yet in the sun because I just got home, but I love the texture of it, the matte look, and I can tell it really is anti-glare since it has dispersed even my camera's flash light when I took the photo below
I am pissed because before I order it I emailed the seller to make sure they do have MyTouch 4G Slide screen protectors, yet they have sent me some other one (I'm guessing it might be for MT4G and not the "Slide" version, but I'm not sure). It is too short and has different cam/sensors cut-outs at the top.
I foolishy trusted it is the correct one when it arrived and I had already ripped-off my "clear" one, so I had to install it for now. Which makes me double-pissed
To make things worse my order is labeled "SPAG-HTC-MYT4G-SL" - IMO it means "ScreenProtectorAntiGlare-HTC-MYTouch4G-SLide" - yet it is wrong one they've shipped, gee

Tried to get a good look at my wife's MT4G (non-slide) and it is hard to tell with some ugly decal thing she has on it, BUT I will say, if you lined it up at the bottom correctly, it looks way too short. It probably is for the MT4G. I am pretty sure, because when I use her protectors as an emergency, I have to trim them all the way around to fit my MT4GS. Apparently the slide is a bit smaller than the non.
How many came in your order? I have to order like 12 at a time because I always screw up about 4 of them before I get one on with no dust dots under it

I order only set of 2 (just to try - never had anti-glares before), but I think this seller has packs of 10 as well (same price tho).
If you want I can take more pics to show you, but yeah I have aligned it at the bottom perfectly, so that's exactly how it comes out on top.
Mind you: this *is* Slide what I have, and the screen protector is slightly narrower (about 1mm on each side) and too short by about 4mm (not to mention the "cut-outs" are wrong) so if this screen protector is for the "non-Slide" MT4G version then the "non-slide" has to be smaller than "slide", not the other way around.
Quality is very good because same as you I usually get the "bubble" somewhere and waste at least 1 protector before it is perfect, but this one seems thicker than the "glare one" and it attached itself almost perfectly right away, I only had to push it tighter at one corner. The cuts are well made, not sharp edges like it was in some other screen protectors but feels kinda polished. Actually I should say the quality is excellent, reminds me of the first Mitsubishi s.p. for laptop screen I bought years ago in Japan. If only it was the right size...
here is the website if you want wholesale quantity (I don't know does 1 dozen qualifies but you can try):

in the future "anti-glare" are the only ones I'll ever buy... you and strapped365 were absolutely correct, thx!
edit:
==============================
MY CONCLUSION
(after a week+ with this screen protector)
With standard "shiny" s.p. (or without any s.p.) you can NOT see the screen outdoors in the sun.
Here is a picture of my MT4GS' screen with "antiglare" s.p. in very bright sun:
Until I have received this anti-glare s.p. I was skeptical (read the thread if you're curious) but once I have use it I love it so much that in the future I will never buy any other type of s.p.!
The screen is now not only readable in the direct sunlight, but exactly as guys above said so:
due to it's texture it is somewhat smudge-hiding
(edit: NO it is not really "smudgeless", if you look at certain angle and light you will see the finger smudges, but even then they're not as bad as on any other type of s.p.)
The only drawback are the colors: at first (when you apply this s.p.) it feels dull and washed a bit - not much, but you can see the difference. However, after very short time I get used to it and feels normal now.
Anyone looking for s.p. replacement should go with an antiglare type.
The benefits (ability to see screen under any conditions and it's "smudge-concealment") greatly outweight the cons (somewhat less-vibrant colors)

They weren't as of about 3 months ago. Suuuuuuuucked. Might as well be putting car window tinting on it.
Hmm... so does anyone have a suggestion for a nice anti-glare screen protector that will fit the phone nicely?
I just got the cheapest matte 6 pack or whatever on eBay from "Top Sellers" in N America.

Completely agree with the conclusion. Got 3 from Amazon for about $2.49 at the time.
http://www.amazon.com/EMPIRE-Anti-G...=mytouch+4g+slide+anti-glare+screen+protector
Random brand called "Empire". Despite the one review. IT's a solid screen protector. Technically all Anti-Glare's have a "matte" kind of feel to it. The feeling and the look of the screen would probably be the most attractive part of Anti-Glares. However yes there is the sacrifice of losing slight visual quality.
Thanks, I'll give those Empire anti-glares a shot
Edit: nvm, shipping to Canada is STEEP on those guys. I'll keep a lookout for other anti-glares. Thanks for the suggestion, though

I bought a set of these 3 for 2.49 from the link above, and am VERY PLEASED. Quick shipping by seller, and they fit perfect with appropriate cutouts for sensors etc up near the top. Good deal!! :good:
Got my Skinomi skins today and after applying I have to say I'm impressed. I was eager to see if it would fit in the dock with it on too, and it does. It's just a little tight but it does fit fine.
When the skin arrives it comes shipped in a tube, since it's rolled up in the tube the ends of the skin want to peel up. If it was rolled the other way it would of been much better. After learning from the tablet skin I re-rolled the dock skin the other way and put it back in the tube for 30 minutes or so and that helped.
My advice when putting the skin on is to only use the application fluid on the large main skin parts (top for the tab and bottom for the dock), and be sure NOT to get any fluid on the small edging/side parts of the skin. Once the main back part is on, bubble free and aligned it will be easy to stick down the sides if there's no fluid on them. In my case I put the fluid all over and the smaller side parts kept peeling themselves up and it took a lot of holding down till they were stuck (the whole process took me about an hour for the tablet).
Lesson learned, on the dock skin I only used a small amount of fluid on the main bottom part and none on the little parts and it was a much faster process. Using a hair dryer will aide in the drying time and also makes the skin more malleable so it doesn't want to peel itself back.
The tablet skin comes with a clear screen protector that I'm not using. I use an anti-glare screen protector (3 pack available on Amazon for $14.95) and I like this set up a lot. A few other reviews for this skin said because the clear screen protector is a bit sticky when you close the tab the screen sticks to the skin on the dock and it cause bubbles in the screen. With the very non-sticky screen protector I have, this isn't an issue.
All-in-all I'm impressed with the skin. It's a very tough vinyl, has a great texture to it (actually feels like carbon fiber and makes for a nice feel in the hand) and provides good coverage on almost all of the tablet and dock.
The only down side is the set up (especially if you use a different screen protector) is a little pricy... But, if you want to protect your tablet and dock while making the setup look bad @ss this is the way to go!!
UPDATE: A small part of the corner of the skin (a very thin strip that covers the corner on the top of the tablet) came off, was torn by the case. I contacted Skinomi as the skin has a lifetime warranty and they're sending me a whole new skin for free. Prompt customer service too. Good company...

how do you feel about this vs a case? if you were to drop this i dont see where it would help. its more for scratch proofing ?

This would do absolutely nothing in the event of a drop!! lol. But, I don't like to always have my tablet in a case and this will help prevent scratches when I'm using it around the house out of the case (sometimes I take the tablet with me while it's docked too and I only have a neoprene case for this, this skin helps once I pull out the tablet in this situation). Great scratch protection, no protection for drops... And it looks cool, and feels cool, and is cool

I have the dock, but do not care about protecting it, dont have a screen protector, just want a case for when i take the tablet out to school or meetings

I have a case very similar to the Poetic case (2nd link) although it doesn't rotate. I didn't need to rotate the screen as I rarely use it in portrait mode and wanted as slim a case as I could get. I got the Blurex Slim Folio Case on Amazon for $21.99 and I think it's a great case! Slim, good fit, and I think it provides about as much protection as you can get with a case of this nature.
I actually have the 1st case you linked to on order, it will be here tomorrow. Not so sure about it but I guess I'll find out tomorrow. I'll update this reply once it gets in!
UPDATE: Got the Poetic Tablet/Dock case today and I like it. It does add a LOT of thickness to the whole setup but it provides good coverage and I like the little pockets for business cards and other notes. It also has two pen holders (good for styli). Looks professional too. If you don't mind a thick setup I'd recommend this case!
Thanks for the review. After debating for some time, I ended up ordering the brushed steel one. I hope it looks decent
How does it feel when holding the tablet(without the dock)? Does it feel like it might peel where you hold it on the edges?

This would do absolutely nothing in the event of a drop!! lol. But, I don't like to always have my tablet in a case and this will help prevent scratches when I'm using it around the house out of the case (sometimes I take the tablet with me while it's docked too and I only have a neoprene case for this, this skin helps once I pull out the tablet in this situation). Great scratch protection, no protection for drops... And it looks cool, and feels cool, and is cool

ACTUALLY....it will do alot of good in a drop. The innitial impact won't be saved, however when you drop something it usually bounces and/or slides. The full skins will mitigate most of the damage from all the scuffs, dings, and scratches that come after the initial impact. I dropped my Galaxy Note and the corner has a pretty good ding, but the skin was skuffed to hell and looked like ****. I was ticked that my phone looked like it was worn as a shoe down a gravel road. I peeled the skin off and was taken back at the fact that there wasnt a single mark on it other then the corner where it landed. I immediately ordered a new skin from ArmorSuit telling them it saved my phone, they refunded the purchase I just made and sent me one for free telling me they were glad it worked and the lifetime warranty covered it. The only reason my tf700 doesnt have a full skin yet is because I use the rooCase snap on that is a little too tight. Full skins pay you back exponentially when the day comes to sell it and you peel it off to see nearly brand new device.
Does the skin cover the sharp edges of the tab next to the bezel ? I can't really find out from the pics I've seen.
I find the tab quite uncomfortable to hold for a long while because of those rather nasty edges...
Thanks.
My Skinomi Clear Skin arrived today but I'm not going to install it yet. I'm going to send my tablet for repair or swap for new unit because of bad quality on glass/screen installation on lower left corner...

It doesn't feel like it will peel but the edges are just a little rough. I don't find it to be a big deal and now that I've had it on for a day I've come to really, really like it. Feels solid and is very "grippy".

It doesn't cover the sharp sides around the bezel, doesn't quite reach around far enough.
Do they sell the skin for the dock alone. I already have a zagg shield for the tablet.

They do, link is in the review but here it is again: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006ZPPDFG/
Right now you can only buy them separately. I have the TF201 dock, not sure if the TF700 will be any different size wise once it's released (doubt it).
I just ordered this based on your review, thanks, though shipping could take a while. How is the bundled screen protector? I had skinomi on my atrix, and was impressed, but that wasn't a high res screen, so any blur was unnoticeable. Is it a good clear cover, or does brightness and clarity take a hit? Thanks

I just ordered a tf201 skinomi dock skin in clear for my tf700 dock on ebay. Skinomi sells them on ebay $16. Anybody have a Zagg screen saver and a dock. How does the Zagg fit? Does it look like it will peel off the Zagg over time. I have the Zagg here waiting for my replacement to arrive and wondering if I should cut a section out where the dock's padding touches the screen. The last thing I want is for the cushions to peel off.
update
I installed the tf201 dock skinomi cover and it fit fine. Its a pain in the neck to get it right though. seems thinner then the Zagg.
I installed the brushed steel one today on my TF700 and it looks stunning (it even have textured feel to it). The installation was painless and took only few minutes. I have not yet installed it on the dock (dock is still sealed) but from the various cutouts, it look like it will be trickier to install than the tablet.
On the other hand, I did not like the screen protector that came with it. It was pain to align correctly and even after taking out all water from underneath, it still has a lot of water streaks. According to the instructions, they are supposed to go away after couple of days so I will wait and see. My recent experience with another wet application screen protector was ArmourSuit for Nexus 7 and it was a breeze to install and it was completely clear within few minutes.
Installed the dock screen yesterday and I still have micro bubbles. Not as much as I had yesterday but still have them non the less. No biggie. Its definitely attaches alot quicker than Zagg. I tell you what, I'm happy I don't have to do it again lol.

The dock is actually easier. The part I found hard was the small parts of the tablet skin on the side/top/bottom kept wanting to peel themselves back and it took a lot of holding it in place while drying. The dock I would only use a small amount of the fluid on the main piece and just stick on all the small pieces, it's easy and nothing wants to peel itself back.

I don't plan on using the screen protector, don't like the feel of it and I prefer anti-glare. I used a similar one on my Xoom and it took almost a week for the streaks to clear and even then it didn't look very good. I also read another review that said the screen protector will stick to the skin on the dock and cause bubbles to form. The anti-glare screen protector I use isn't sticky at all and I don't have this issue (Poetic anti-glare screen protectors - 3 pack, $14.95 on Amazon)

I bought the Skinomi Skintech from Amazon (about $10 shipped) and it shipped today. Hoping to get it on Monday so that I can put it on my Note Edge when it arrives on Monday as well. According to Skinomi, their screen protector will be covering the whole front screen of the Edge.

Your right it doesnt say. I email the seller and he said it should fit 99% edge to edge since no protector can cover 100%
Also doing a 1:1of the picture and the old protectors i return it is wider and looks like it will fit.
They should be here by friday so i will know then. I dont like the other protectors since they feel all gummy and there arent any glass ones out.
Ill let you know tho.

It feels a little gummy but not as bad as I thought it would feel.
On a side note, I tried a bunch of different protectors so far, and the Konami is the one that fits and sticks the best on the ENTIRE screen.
The ones with no solution I have tried DO NOT stick very well on the curve screen.

YES you do need time for the bubble to go away. The instructions recommend not using the phone for 4 to 5 hours which i did. The protector
needs time to adhere to the glass.
To me it looks as clear as any normal HD protector I have ever used.

I guess for edge screen, non of any normal material protector can work good. Only the that kind of material you bought need water to install and very thing can stick and stay.

Ordered 2 different protectors and they were garbage. Didn't cover entire screen so I asked my cousin in Japan to identify the protector in the video and he found them. He ordered me some and should be here at my door soon.
Right, first of all, I had been waiting for a UK supplier of this product for aaaaages!
Finally MobileFun started stocking it.
As everyone knows, tempered glass protectors are for the most part, a problem for the Note 4 due to the curved edges.
I had been using one that just cover the viewing area, which looked hideous IMO.
So when I first saw iVisor and it's total, no halo coverage, I knew I needed to try it out, despite the high price of £30! (yeah, I thought I was crazy too)
In terms of packaging, there's not much to report, it's... A box [emoji23]

}
In the box you get a cloth and suction cup to help with the installation, but I've installed so many glass protectors I didn't find it necessary to use the cup.
As you can see, this thing covers the "whole" front of the screen.
Installation of the iVisor was, in my opinion, the easiest of all the protectors I've installed.
Having the coloured edge, allows you to line everything up far easier, than a totally transparent one.
After installation and now it's been on a couple of days, I can give informed verdict on this protector.... And that verdict is, it's nothing short of amazing!
Despite the high price, in my opinion it is well worth the money, not only is it one of the thinest glass protectors I've ever come across, the clarity is phenomenal! Not to mention, the feel of thing is just like the naked glass.
I thought the ones I used in the past were good, obviously better than the PTE type, but this is a next level up.
Not forgetting THE reason I got this in the first place, which is a halo free viewing experience, which this delivers impeccably.
Yes, it is expensive, but if you're after a tempered glass protector, this has got to be the best one for the Note 4. Definitely a 10/10 from me, and if you can stomach the cost, the only one to get.
Nice thanks for sharing, is it because it has a dark border that the halo effect cannot be seen?
I'm using it as well and agree it is hands down the best one for this phone.
I disagree. Don't like the holes on the glass. Much prefer the Arcadia glass.

It's all peaches & cream until the thin adhesive sides pop loose and tons of junk end up under the screen. Also a lot of cases will cause this protector to bow up in the middle and the screen will become unresponsive as there is no adhesive under the actual display area. Been there, done that.
Anyhow, nice review and good luck with the Moshi.

I think it depends on the case, I'm using using Spigen Neo hybrid and I think it's a case of it being a mixture of luck and the way it's made, that I've managed to get it that spot on, that the case doesn't touch it, or at the very least is flush.

I think that does play a part, but I don't think it's totally because of that, because I've had others that halo way before the edge of the actual display, let alone the edge of the phone.

They're not holes, as in "holes", they're sections that don't have the coloured border to let the button LEDs shine through.
Trouble is getting hold of others, I tried getting all sorts but found it surprisingly difficult getting anyone to ship to the UK, including the suppliers themselves.

Can i clean the moshi glass?
Looks like it will be the same price as the BodyGuardz Crown (coming the end of April for Note 4). Both look like they offer great protection. Because of the aluminum bezel, the Crown will have zero lift around the edges. Is there any lift at all with the iVisor? I think that would be a deal breaker if it does.

You mean the adhesive side? Probably, but I wouldn't recommend it, why would you want to remove it unless it cracked of course, but then you'd replace it?
I have a similar one arriving today. It's a Cailifu and is sold on Amazon. I will let you guys know how it looks and holds up. Here's the link to check it out:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00PXP38BA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I have been using the Cailifu glass protector for about a day now. Overall, i think it's a winner. The only negative thing I could find is, it's a smudge and fingerprint magnet. Not sure it it's the material used or some kind of coating, but I have to clean the screen far more frequently than normal. The screen coverage is perfect with no gaps or lifting around the edges. For the price (75% less than the iVisor), it's a go.
BTW, the "windows" for the capacitive buttons are square. The iVisor has round windows. The square windows give it a more stock look than the round ones. Hope this comparison helps.

Having used this for a few weeks now, would you still recommend the Moshi? I've read some comments online about their iPhone protectors having an 'oil slick' effect in the centre of the screen and a 'dot pattern' that permanently marked the screen - have you noticed anything like this? I didn't see any such problems evident in your photo.
Also be very interested to know how S-Pen usage is with this. Does the S-Pen still operate the back button OK?

No problems whatsoever, very happy with it and well worth the money IMHO.
To gather options here for U12+ glass/plastic screen and back protectors.
Currently I have this one ordered for back film:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Fro...r-For-HTC-U12-Plus-U12-Cover/32881487671.html
And this for the front:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/HTC-U12-Pl...-Schutzglas-Tempered-Schutzfolie/263708198830
It will be much relief to have these applied. Need to handle the phone with care till at least the front glass arrives...
I'm trying these out because they're the only non-glass, dry install protectors I could find.

So the front tgsp is here. I can't recommend it because it's not well sized on top and bottom. No Halo, because this u12 panel is less curved than u11 was, it's flat.
It's all transparent and fully glued. Application was easy cause it didn't fit an exact match on top.
Usual glass feeling to it.
I'll keep it because it's without Halo

How about Skinomi?
It's an off brand, but was the only one I found when I had a HTC 10. It was pretty great quality all body protection. Bestskinsever is normally my go to, but since they sometimes done have any skins Skinomi has been my second
All glass screen protector should work since the screen is flat. I ordered from Mr. Shield since I used for my Android Pad.

I ordered different brand. Mr. Shield, the side is little smaller and for some reason the bottom don't stick. Not deal breaker, but nice to others.

This looks great! But it's pretty expensive with shippingcosts to the Netherlands.

Also I already got mine slapped up with a cheapo from China, and don't want to risk another nervous break down while applying a new film or skin

Yes shipping a package internationally with tracking is quite expensive. It actually costs us even more than what we charge our customers because we choose to insure our international shipments. That being said, we do offer free international shipping on orders $69.95 and up. I know that is a lot, but if you put together an order with a few friends or family members, that would save you quite a bit on the shipping costs.
We used to send shipments as letters as some of our competitors do which is much cheaper, but that isn't really possible when including application gel and the percentage of lost shipments was MUCH higher in that scenario. We feel that it is more important that customers can track their orders and that a much closer to 100% of our orders are actually delivered.

Thanks for your reply. Okay, I've just placed an order for 3 HTC u12+ skins, because Dbrand doesn't make them haha. And because I got 10% off and get free shipping.
Hope to have them soon!

I wasn't able to send a PM for some reason but I would love to try the ultra clean full body since I'm using a fitbag for my only protection now. I can't find any cases I'm interested in yet. I will make sure to give a full review. Thank you for the offer.
When I had my U11 protected with full body protector it would no longer fit properly in my U11 leather fitbag, since the fitbag is made perfectly for a naked phone but the U12+ is a tad smaller than the U11. The U12+ fits nicely in my U11 fitbag but it doesn't fit as snug as a bare naked U11. A bare naked U11 fit perfectly in the fitbag and whenever you slide it out, it would clean both front and back of the phone making it look great.
My point is, I would bet the @PhantomSkinz Guru for the U12+ would combine very nice with the U11 leather fitbag. I bet it would snug it up just perfect like it does for my U11.

Shame I don't quite meet the criteria in the UK with only <400 posts.
I've tried this:
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BXFR12Z/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
and this:
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07D2BYYJN/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Both are garbage because neither completely covers the screen (each side is slightly thinner than the width of the screen) and BOTH will not stick down on 2 or 3 of the edges.

coming tomorrow. I'm leery of Orzero due to the negative reviews of their product for another flat-screened, bezeless phone, the Essential PH-1 but I bought it because it specifically states that the entire protector has adhesive, not just the black edges. If neither of these work, I'm going Skinomi.
PhantomSkinz Guru said:
Yes the Ultra Clear skinz are about 8 mils (0.2mm) thick. So you can double that thickness to account for each side being covered. It will definitely make the fit a little more snug. However sliding it in and out of a tight fitting pouch many times a day may cause the skin to peel up? Suppose it depends how tight the fit bag is.
We'll PM you for your shipping details for the review kit

Yes thank you very much I'm really looking forward to applying these. I bet they will work great with my FitBag and if they do peel up it will probably get enough use before doing so and still be worth it to order new. We will see and I will post pics and thoughts. Thanks again!

Those were terrible, but these Supershieldz are great, especially if you prefer film over glass.

No problem We are going to send you a "glass only" back skin as well so you can choose which you like better. The glass only will certainly be easier to install and may be less prone to peeling in your situation.

Awesome thank you.
My HTC U11 Fitbag only fit properly bare naked. Once I put a screen protector and back protector on it, it was too tight. The U12+ fits nicely in my U11 Fitbag but it's not tight enough, I think applying these will make the U11 Fitbag fit the U12+ as if it was made for it.
If it doesn't work out I will stop using the FitBag. I just want a bare looking phone with these great protector's. I would hate to get a single scratch on this beauty :laugh:

So here's the sad state of affairs for tempered glass screen protectors for the U12 Plus. Do you want to protect just the screen, or the entire phone?
Because you can't do both.
You can use a glass screen protector, but you'll have to either deal with the screen protector not actually covering your screen, or you can get a 'case friendly' full coverage screen protector that is, infact, not case friendly.
Or you can use a case and a plastic screen protector, as I am going to do. The fact of the matter is until a name brand company decides to make a glass screen protector that actually fits and adheres to the U12 Plus, none of these cheap chinese glass screen protectors are worth a dime of your money. It cost me $40+ to figure that out.
The Orzero screen protector completely covered the flat glass surface of the front of the phone, however you can't get rid of the airgaps where the black part gives way to the clear glass. Then, when you put the case on, it immediately lifts the screen protector.
The Katain had more rounded corners so I was hopeful, but again, immediate lift and I have a bubble at the edge of the clear and black that will not go away.
