I was wondering what luck people had finding screen protectors, preferably wet mount without orange peel effect, that have a cutout for the proximity sensor, or at least have been shown to not affect its function.
I'm trying to decide on what protector to pull the trigger on, so I can have it, and a case before my n4 finally arrives.
In terms of the case I'd love the google bumper, but well... you know... So I guess I'll get some decent TPU case in the meantime.

Best Skins Ever is wet application with minimal orange peel effect, only noticeable when viewed at an angle under lighting, does not affect screen quality at all. Orange peel effect is unavoidable with wet application skins. Supposedly, there is a revised version with the proximity sensor cut out shipping now. I received the earlier version without the cutout and is in the process of having it replaced. Definitely recommend it, only issue I had was with the proximity sensor that should be fixed with the new revised version.

XO skins, there's no orange Peel effect here, very small area cut out for the proximity sensor.... It goes right to the very edge and an excellent fit... Not ideal for tpu cases but it's doing me until i get a better case.
You can get a case fit version of the skin though.

I ordered the BSE on November 27 and the set I recieved has the cut out for the proximity sensor, so I think they're up to speed sending out the revised version.

I'm using a Terrapin screen protector which DOESN'T have a proximity cut-out but doesn't cause any problems either.
Xoskins are very good.plus they have lifetime warranty and it does have a cut out for the proximity sensor. Wet application, easy to install .
And they have both a regular fit and a case fit one that doesn't go all the way to the edges for those who like to have cases on their phones

Does anyone have the Spigen dual side screen protector with the play store Nexus 4 Bumper?
If you do- How does it fit and would you recommend it because I'm looking at possibly getting this combo.
I could save $15 and get a poetic bumper for $5 instead of the $20 play store one. The only thing is I prefer the look of the play store one.
I can also get the play store one for much cheaper later on.
I was also thinking of getting the Poetic Atmosphere because it looks so nice on the iPhone 5 an the Spigen (just front) screen protector.
But maybe I'll just get them both and decide for myself.
I have the spigen dual ordered. Should be here next week. I have the bumper already but I'm not sure if I'm going to keep it or not. I'm not liking how it makes the phone feel. The bumper is not as slim as I thought.
I have this exact combo - simply perfect.

I have the combo as well and I wouldn't necessarily call it perfect, though I like the combo. I think the front protector doesn't cover enough of the sides, so there is a gap between the bumper and the protector... You can feel it when swiping from the edges (ex: when switching between tabs in Chrome).
I think a better case / protector combo is the Spigen with Diztronic... The case covers enough of the sides so there is barely a gap on the sides.
Anyways, since I prefer the bumper, I'll wait for the Phantom tempered glass protector and hope that the fit will be nicer.
I'll try to post a few pics tomorrow.

I have the same combo and like others have mentioned I don't like that the front protector does not go edge to edge on the screen, but it was expected. I don't like wet application ones so I'll just suck it up.

Spigen released some dry application ones for the Galaxy S3 that covered the whole screen (which has curved edges) so we just have to wait!
Spigen has made curved glass protectors before (for the gs3) but the reviews for that particular protector are terrible.
The hardness is half that of the current N4 one they have.
Can somebody please post a picture of the combo.
And has anybody dropped their phone? Any stories about the combo?

Here you go (also showing my first attempt at snapseed haha). The protector just barely reaches to where the screen begins to curve down on the sides. The back is near perfect luckily. Let me know if you need to see any additional pictures.

While the novelty of the Spigen Curved Crystal protectors is nice, they are incredibly easy to scratch it seems. I have a coworker that got the Curved Crystal protectors for her GS3, and she was disappointed at how easily they got visible hairline scratches. The first one she was rough with, but the 2nd one she took care to keep covered with the official GS3 book-like case that has a front flap, and it somehow still managed to get scratched.
I really think that if you want to cover the whole glass on the Nexus 4, you pretty much have to go with a wet apply. I'm almost a mandatory dry apply person, but I must say, it really makes it look as if you cheaped out on the screen protector to anybody else that looks at your phone. The bumper only accentuates this visual problem. Personally I'm cursing LG and Google for even doing this to the screen, it seems utterly gimmicky, pointless, and makes it absolute hell to get a good smooth dry apply screen protector on the phone. I find myself actually avoiding using the sloped edge because I run right into the edge of my dry screen protector. I usually start my swipes right at the edge of the screen protector.

What is the difference between dry and wet application in terms of the screen's curve.
Correct me if I'm wrong but what I take you're saying is that wet application screen protectors will cover the entire (curved)N4 screen as dry ones won't (or if they do they won't be too good)

I don't actually have a wet apply protector myself, but I ordered a Best Skin's Ever full body set that should be delivered sometime next week, along with a Spigen Dual set. From reading up on them though, it seems like all of the wet apply ones do actually cover the entire glass, which would make sense as they're totally floppy and flexible during the installation phase. The tough part, even with those, seems to be getting them to cure and stick permanently to the curved glass.
I think I'll give the BSE a try and see how it goes before the Spigen, based on some people's comments that the BSE seems smoother than other brands of wet applies. I typically really hate the rubbery drag that the wet applies have.

I dislike wet-type screen protectors (well only used Zagg) and didnt like it at all.
Felt really plastic and left orange peel affect on the screen.
Spigen i have never went wrong with, but quite expensive for what it is.
Chinese generic stuff seems to be ok. I just use them and replace it every 1-2months since its so cheap
Although I know I might get some hate for this, I'm using the Invisible Shield from Zagg and I quite like it. Been using this protector for my past two phones.

I installed the screen protector that came with my SGP ultra thin case and have had no problems with the proximity sensor. I believe the one that came with mine is the ultra crystal since it is the only one they have on their website. It only has the cutout for the earpiece.
I'm using one and have no issues. I actually like that it only has that cutout personally

Proximity sensor uses light instead of sound, meaning you'll not have a significant amount of change with a transparent cover. Unless it's really, really thick, of course.
Also I should note that I've used several Spigen SGP screen protectors (I work with SlashGear.com and do reviews and whatnot) and I've never seen a screen protector (even the thick glass ones) have a significant effect on proximity sensors.
So I planned on not putting my N5 in a case and possibly no screen protector either.... until I noticed when laying on the desk the camera is keeping it from lying flat. I am edging towards a case but just thought I would ask for the people that went naked. Shame since I absolutely love the feel of the N5.
Have you noticed any scratches on the lens?
This is not really directed at the person that babies their device like fine china.... more the person that will slide their phone across the table when trying to show a picture or something.
Haven't noticed anything on my n5 camera lens, but was wondering the same thing. I have my eye on a hybrid, clear backed, spigen case to show off the white back

I have had my N5 for 6 days now. It has been in an official "Nexus 5 Bumper Case" from the beginning, except for the few minutes while I installed a screen protector first. I've been pretty careful with the device, but I do have a small scratch on that giant camera lens cover already. Luckily, the scratch is near the perimeter and doesn't look like it can impact image capture. It is also a slight enough scratch that I cannot capture it in a photograph with my Motorola Atrix 4G, it has to be looked for to see it.
My screen protector is the SPIGEN Steinheil Ultra Crystal, which I am quite pleased with. It came with two screen protectors, so I am loosely considering cutting a circle out of the second one and fitting it to the camera lens cover.

Why didn't you just keep the stock one on it? That's what I did.
Also if any of you guys get a custom skin they cover the circle around the camera too. So it's a good option if you like to keep it without a case.

If you're worried about scratching the glass you can get a caseology leather tpu case witch feels really good and almost naked like it protects the screen and the camera glass from touching your table or counter top surfaces. If you really like naked I suggest searching for some camera glass protectors yes they do exist or make a DYI one by cutting one into a circular shape

Can somebody point out a plastic (wet application) screen protector that is confirmed to have a proximity sensor cutout?
I have looked at amazon and while some of the product photos do show the cut out but people are still complaining about it being absent on the actual product.
I bought a supershieldz TGSP and one it was missing the cutouts and two it didn't fit my phone due to dent on the screen. So I ordered IQ shield wet application SP since it showed cutouts in product photos but after when I received it, it was also missing the cutouts.
any help is appreciated.
Here Skinomi has confirmed it has proximity cut-outs and design has been updated as of lately so give it a go:

I can confirm the Skinomi® TechSkin - Huawei Nexus 6P Screen Protector does have the cutout. I received a revised version in the mail right after my first one shipped. I am using the original one without the cutout and it works just fine. I think people that were *****ing are clueless or were using the glass protectors.

X2 on this!
I don't even mess with TGSP's anymore simply because of the added cost and the Spigen Crystal Film is so good. Plus the Spigen Crystal Film comes three in a pack. If you mess one up you have spares on hand. I can't tell any difference between the Spigen Crystal Film and glass on the phone!
haven't used a screen protector in years. Does the lack of a cutout for the front facing camera on the Spigen screen protector affect the camera at all?
anyone know if a screen protector fitting only the touchscreen portion? im using a skin (slickwrap) and dont want to apply a protector over the skin... yet. much rather have just one layer instead of a double layer here and single layer there.

The screen is supposed to go black when you put the phone up to your face and come on when you remove the phone from your face. Are you saying that your screen goes black instantly when not even next to your face?

Interesting. I noticed that Spigen also modified the Nexus 5 screen protector on the replacement I just received and it has a cutout for the proximity sensor now too. I wonder if there are slight differences in the sensitivity of them causing issues for some but not others? Your screen isn't scuffed up where the proximity sensors are is it?

Your guess is as good as mine.
My 1 week old N6P isn't scuffed up at all.
I have a Skinomi Non Proximity cutout protector - which I ordered on 11/02 but they have since redesigned a cutout newer version.
That said, it's still gnaws at me that the N6 guys have the same issue & this just started getting louder after M6.0 was released.
I do like the non-cutout protectors better & have never had this issue prior with any other phone.
But if it's hardware or software related - either way wish Google would issue a guidance.
