Does using a double screen protector where the inner layer is a film protector and the outer is a tempered glass screen protector is SAFE and would not cause decrease in sensitivity and screen visibility problem? Anyone here tried it?

With the gorilla glass on u won't need any screen protectors. I never put any of those on mine. Not even a single scratch yet. And putting them does considerably decrease touch sensitivity and the colours don't look cool!
Not a big fan either of those things. If you have a decent casing for your phone and you handle it with some care you don't need those things.

Because i found a really cheap screen protector I purchased it.
One the first layer(right on top of the actual screen) I have a screen protector called invisible shield.(its known to be a very good screen guard and its expensive) the screen protector is squishy and thick.
And on the second layer, I have the cheaper screen protector called clear screen protector. Its thin and solid plastic.
Would having two layer of screen protector be more affective protecting the screen from cracking when dropped?

I would say the added screen protector is adding marginal protection at best. Even the first screen protector isn't adding all that much protection against a fall that would impact the screen. The best protection you'll get for the screen a case that raises the edges so that if you were to drop the phone face down, the case would absorb the shock. The screen protectors will do nothing against such a fall.

mhmmm i see. thank you so much for responding
Has anyone heard of anything like this? I'd love a glass screen protector but absolutely require anti-glare.

Don't think so.
What you could do is to get a glass protector, then get a matte screen protector on top of the glass protector.
The main purpose of a glass protector is not sacrificing clarity at all. Anti-glare just defeats the purpose of a glass protector.

My goal with the glass was actually additional impact protection. I was considering doing your idea but saw that Otterbox advertises an impact resistant, matte screen protector:

Does anyone have any experience with this?
What the heck is the difference between THIS (a regular HD Screen Protector) and THIS (a tempered glass screen protector)
Reg screen protectors are just thin pieces of film that don't do much protecting against drops, but will prevent minor scratches. Temp glass usually has a hardness of h9 and will save your screen if it takes a bad spill, I know of this first hand. Hopefully the temp glass will cracked leaving your phones screen intact. Temp glass is just better protection all around AND it will prevent your screen from becoming part of the recycling trash on friday. Temp glass has saved me twice, one with a note 4 and once with an LG g3. I would never go back to buying those thin film protectors that do nothing
I don't have first-hand experience with tempered glass protectors, but I do think standard screen protectors offer more protection than twoeleven99 indicated. I used a Skinomi front and back protector on my Nexus 4 (also a glass sandwich), and it adds a nice barrier to the glass. It also has some give, so it absorbs some of the impacts that would otherwise shatter glass.
Another thing I liked is that it adds slightly more grip than glass, preventing drops and slips. It would also be way more practical for the S6 edge, since the wet-apply ones can handle curved screens no problem.
That said, I'm going to give a tempered glass one a shot this time to see if it is more clear (eg: less rainbowing or orange peel effect).
As mentioned already, a tempered glass screen protector will do a better job protecting your phone's screen from damage. They may cost more initially, but they'll last a while. You typically have to change out plastic screen protectors more frequently after light scratches have built up.

I've been using tempered glass screen protectors for the last 2 years. They add thickness, but they're honestly amazing. One thing that I've never really confirmed, but I keep hearing rumors that when dropping a device with a tempered glass screen protector, the energy disperses onto the protector, therefore shattering the protector rather than the phone's screen itself. I never really had a massive drop before to test this out (nor do I have the funds to break my phones), but I have dropped my G2 before, and the corner of the protector cracked while the screen itself was completely fine.
I also like how glass feels compared to PET screen protectors.

I've had the tempered glass completely shatter from one end to the other on 2 devices. Peeled it off and the screen under never had a scratch on it
As we all know tempered glass screen protectors suck on 2.5D glass and the place where I live, I can't get a normal plastic screen protector just to prevent scratches.
So are there anyone of you Honor 6X users out there who use it without a screen protector? If yes, did you encounter any scratches?

It does't have any enhanced option for front glass (e.g. corning gorilla glass)
So it would be prone to scratch....

I already know that that's why this thread was made and that wasn't the question.
I've had mine for a couple months now with no screen protector. It's fine

You sure you don't even have the plastic one applied that some got out of the box?
Your question does not make sense since it depends on how you take care of your phone, whether you place keys and coins on the same pocket as your phone, or you lay it face down.

Yep, removed that when I tried a tempered glass screen protector. Didn't like it, so removed it and never replaced it with anything else.
Try the Trink impossible glass. Its not thick like a tempered glass and its flexible too. There are some videos that shows the durability of this glass. If you're not aware of it, then do check it out. They even have their own online shop. But again, it won't cover the entire screen.
I never had this problem with any of my previous devices where I lose touch sensitivity after installing a tempered glass screen protector. The issue appears to come from a misaligned tempered glass. When I look at each curved side of the tempered glass, I noticed the glass slightly (very slightly) was shifted near the bottom bezel. Readjusting it slightly improved the sensitivity to normal. Hope this helps anyone in the future.

I've been in the same situation. Tried several different types of glass protectors, but none of them was good. Just ordered some hydrogel foil.

Got it from here. So far so good. Way better than any useless tempered glass screen protector.
