Do not know it has been asked before or not...
I am using XG screen protector on Nexus 4 with Diztronic case, to be honest it feels rubbery and struggling on the edges. Sometimes it does come off because of the case. Now hunting for new screen protection. Happy with case though.

Yeah you need either a case fit wet application or a dry application.
I recommend SGP ultra olephobic. Using that with my diztroniz and it works great

Does the SGP screen protector goes up to the edges and wet application?? How much it is in UK?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Case optimized screen protectors do not cover the edges. Also it's dry application

Will any protectors which do not cover the edges do the job? There are good reviews for Terripan on Amazon...

Halo HD screen protectors have been my favorite. I've gone through quite a bit.

No does not go up to edges.
I'm using SGP ultra crystal with my poetic bumper and I also have a ringke hybrid fusion case ..and the sp is really great with both.
Does not lift. Not a single scratch yet.

Wait does this mean that XtremeGuard + Diztronic TPU case isn't a good match?
I didn't quite understand what you didn't like about it. Are you saying the edges of the screen protector start peeling?
Yes it has starting peeling from top with case on....

Damn! Thanks for the reply. I'll look at other case / screen guard combinations then.
Just checked out Acase Superleggera Pro Case, and that seems just as good as the Diztronic. Will this peel off the screen guard too?
To answer the question: I have the Gadgetshieldz optimized screen protector. They peel a little bit with my Diztronic and Acase. The Rinke fusion doesn't have this problem.

I've been using XtremeGuard screen protector with my diztronic tpu since I got my nexus 4.. its fine for the most part. Check the ditronic case thread and the xtremeguard protector thread for other peoples experiences. As long as you get the edges of the screen protector under the edges of the case it actually holds the protector on pretty well. I think i put mine on slightly low so sometimes ( once every few weeks ) one of the corners starts peeling a little from moving around.. I just lift it up and push it back under with my fingernail.. or you can take it out and put it back in.. also gives an opportunity to clean the dust out from the case..

hey guys im looking for wet screen protectors what are they called besides wet application ? any brands to focus on? thanks! got one applied it so nice but when i put it in my jeans it came off and became dusty! so i need anotyher one (the first one i got for my cousin for free but hes out of town for a while and i cant get in contact with him) where can i get one for 'cheap' i already have the back so i wouldnt mind the front i could look on electronicBay but dont know the technical name to it!
http://www.xtremeguard.com/ or http://www.skinomi.com/
The ones from xtremeguard are really inexpensive but the ones from skinomi are much better.

thanks! i actually didnt google i just searched ebay for wet screen protector
Go xtremegaurd get 60% off with coupon code COASTER.
I love my Xtremegaurd on my Nexus 4
From my experience, Skinomi are pretty wrinkly looking. Xtremeguard, while much clearer, if you dont get it on just right it will lift.
Bestskinsever is honestly the best wet screen protector hands down
BSE for me as well (from previous use, not on my N4)...

I ordered the total body bumper optimized matte body skin..the front screen protector is the glossy finish, but the sides and back are matte material. Honestly, the glossy sides and back looks way better then the matte material, and also the glossy gives a better grip. IMO, go for the bestskinsever total body gloss protectors..those are the best

I didn't see a whole lot on this protector, but I just went ahead and ordered it.
It is on sale for $28.50 - 25% with coupon code SAVE25NOW. Shipping is $.99 so total was $20.94.

I had a XGear Fantom that was. 4mm and the LG bumper fit fine. Now I ordered the Maru labs and if it ever comes, it should fit as well since it's. 37mm.

Don't have picture I broke the screen protector!! I shut my car door on my phone the screen cover broke but my phone was perfect!! I had the first model of the protector which was a little thicker so the bumper wouldn't fit to well and just pushed the protector up!!! The new one is thinner so it might fit better!!

Ok pulled the trigger for a black one. I have the LG white bumper, but was battling if I should go white. But hearing or reading that there are some gaps, I opted for the black.

Thanks. This is how I found out about Maru labs - from what I know they were adjusting the batch currently. I should have actually gotten the screen protector earlier last week but it was delayed. So we'll see.

Uh, I wouldn't want that. hah.
Few questions for some owners..
1) The site doesn't advertise being oleophobic, but do fingerprints show up pretty badly?
2) Has anyone tried this case with a slim case such as the Rinke or Nillkin? It wraps around the edges pretty tightly and am wondering if the Maru glass extends that far.
Mine should be at my office waiting for me on Monday. I'll post pics if it works on my bumper lol.

From this users experience it doesn't seem to be anti fingerprint http://www.reddit.com/r/nexus4/comments/1e2fzi/maru_labs_tempered_glass_screen_protector/ca2qhpr
I received mine today.
It does leave fingerprints.
Sensitivity does go down a little.
Cases I've tried on: (I've put this on for only a couple of seconds to see if it would fit or not. I don't know if it would cause an issue for extended use)
Ringke fusion - seems to fit, looks good.
Poetic atmosphere - seems to fit, looks good.
Nillkin leather flip - fit good.
Poetic borderline - It does not fit. I can't put it on with the protector on.
Poetic slimbook - fit good.
Oh god, does it just come a cheap little padded envelope? I'm worried about the condition of my protector now too.

Nope, It came in a flatten box. (well mine came in flat with no other padding or bubbles)
It only came with the protector only, no cleaning cloth.
what is the lightest case for our n4? i have a nillkin frosted case but it added a significant weight to it. so significant that i strained my pinky that supports the phone when i hold it with one hand. i would go naked but i place my phone on the table often so i want to protect it atleast from scratches at the back glass. thanks

I can say Poetic Borderline.

This works great. However, in my case it eventually started to peel just enough to about me. So I put my bunker back on also so there's no way to peel at the edges.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
as of right now I'm using the ringke fusion case but I'm not liking the bulky size, how easily broken is the back when it comes to bumper plus the skin for antiscratch or suck it up and use the case?
also can anyone recommend thinner case for the n4?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
If you want true see through case you only have the rinkle and the bumper
If your not looking for true see through look for some transparent tpu cases out this plastic ones

I have the black leather d band skin and a poetic black bumper. Looks great. Prevents scratches. I rarely drop my phone, and when I have I felt the bumper defiantly helped from scuffing up the sides. I hate cases. Hopefully the n5 will not be do fragile, so in can go naked like I normally do.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
all though the bumper will add width to the device.. if you have small hands it might be an issue, like it did for me lol. Ive been wanting to try the poetic bumper but cant seem to find on amazon nor ebay, the color i want that is.
Also, the back is not drop protected with the dbrand skin, even tho you wont see it if its cracked either. So its a win win

Just upgraded my Note 4 to a Note 8... No more security updates for that Note 4 and I gotta have those security patches in my industry... Too bad. Note 4 still works great...
I never really used a screen protector on my Note 4... But those exposed curved glass edges on the Note 8 get me worried. I'm getting the Alcantara case, but should I screen protect?

Dropped my note 8 face down on gravel and shattered display. Glass alone cannot be replaced. The oled and glass come as 1 unit and are only 259 to have installed at a samsung certified repair shop. Way cheaper than paying phone insurance unless you drop it the first month my phone is like new again.
