Mr Shield Screen Protectors - Different than shown

I got the el-cheap-o screen protectors in to use while we all wait for some decent tempered glass options. These things are not the same as what is shown on amazon. i have to assume they will work... although i really don't know.
and this is what amazon looks like.

When I saw your title, I thought, "how different could they be?" And it turns out that they are really...different. Wow.

No problem. I'm sure as soon as the Moto has been in more peoples hands that more proper fitting protectors will surface. For now this will have to do until I get my overpriced protector from Motorola.

Return to Amazon - I have same issues as others. Arent we going to have this issue with ANY screen protector? If it is smaller, you will distinctly feel the "drop off".

Little different
Just got the clear ones in today. Mine aren't what Amazon shows but they differ from the ones you received as well. There are cutouts for the bottom sensors and a centered cutout at the top. It's also smaller than the screen to avoid the curved edges. They actually sent me an email after ordering it explaining why it's smaller than the phone.

Could you post some pics of it? I want to see how much screen is exposed if I use a case.

Thanks for sharing
I was just looking at these from Amazon, I usually go straight otterbox for my phones and I've found the screen protectors that come with it are adequate so I've never shopped around for other screen protectors. I just got this bumper/case in: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00N3VHD6C
It fits quite snug and I'm wondering how it will sit with a tempered glass cover.

[Q] Metal trim like the N4?

I'm trying to figure out if the Edge will have metal trim around the sides like the N4 or plastic like everything else before it...
Anyone know?

It has a metal trim , it has been confirmed by numerous sources .

Cheers~

Thanks, mate... I fingered an Edge last night at a Samsung kiosk. The phones were all warm so I couldn't feel cool metal. Asked the Samsung rep and he didn't know. In fact, he whipped out his phone and googled up a story on android authority that said it was plastic.

I have the phone and can confirm it is metal sides like Note 4.

i have the N4 right now and planning to get the Edge (give wife the n4). However, i am not liking this metal business as it scratches (hairline and small knicks) FAR easier than the plastic used in note 1,2, and 3. I have not even dropped the n4 and it has a bunch of hairline scratches. I used the note 3 for 9 months and it was pristine. ARGH!

Same here. Mines is in a silicon case.
I just got word that my screen protectors ship form amazon. I should have them by next friday.
There suppose to cover the whole front. I had to return the other ones i brought because they only cover the flat part.

Unfortunately scratches on the metal trim are somehow unavoidable, especially with some tight fit cases like UAG.

yea if you take the pictures and do a 1:1 that one will be bigger.

I wonder if they will come out with a tempered glass version. I don't like plastic screen protectors.

I spoke to Iloome and they said the tempered glass flex screen protectors will be coming sometime in January.

Tech Armor Edge 2 Edge Glass protector for Note 4

Tech Armor has fixed the issue with the protector not adhering.
I have purchased 5 and all 5 have stayed on for a total of 4 weeks with cases on. No haloing.

I will get a photo of mine later when the wife gets home so I may use her camera.

Looks like the black version just went down to $16.96. Just snagged one. Thanks!

Do these have the grid of dots?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using xda premium

Do these go with the curve of the screen?

I just got mine. Put it on and took it back off. Only the edges have adhesive. The clear center part for the screen doesn't touch the screen so it makes the screen look dull or hazy. The good thing about this is that the edges are solid color so you don't see any halo if there are any. It's flat so I'm sure the halo is there but you just can't see it. I put my old tempered screen back.
Also wanted to point out, I bought the edge to edge glass version.

Thank you dude. You just saved me from a bad purchase.

Just give up already. Coming up on almost a year and still nothing is 100% perfect fit. Save the time and money and get the hdx. Going strong since last oct launch.

Yeah both of mine you can see them when the screen is off.
I guess I should have waited a week longer as my black glass protector is still going strong but the white one not so much, and they have THE worst customer support I have ever dealt with second to Verizon.
I purchased a YooTech Glass and have no halo but it is not E2E.

I mean I guess they are but the entire protector doesnt stick, just the edges. i dont like the colored borders at all, and the white protector seems really hazy.

I would avoid this protector. It's not good.

No, Im sorry I dont have any pictures, and I have sent over 20 emails to Tech Armor about the issues, and I keep getting the same question about my Amazon order numbers, then an appology then no reply for 6-7 days with the same question being asked. Very bad support from them.
Recently took my Note 4 back due to lack of root and picked up a Nexus 6.

Oleophobic coating problem

Hey Guys,
If you consider to buy a S8, please read.
I bought this phone a week ago and the oleophobic coating has already gone from the screen.
I didn't use any alcohol or other liquid for clean the screen, only dry clothes.
Now the phone looks like a cheap chinese rubbish, full of smudges and fingerprints.
I have to wipe every 2 minutes with a special cloth.
I am very disappointed about its quality. It is hard to believe that a cheap Nuglas tempered glass screen protector {£3 on eBay} has an oleophobic coating lasting for more than a year and the Samsung can't invest a few pence to give this phone a premium feel and they make sure that you can't buy any usable screen protector for this fckn' curved screen.
After the Note 7 scandal I though that the Samsung tries to get its reputation back, but they just try to get back the money what they lost because of the Note 7.
I think this is my last Samsung phone ever.
Now I am selling it and buy an LG or a Huawei.

Had mine since launch, no issues with the coating here
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

Pics or it didn't happen, and why not exchange the phone? Seems like some kind of defect.

Had mine since launch, no issues here either.

I have the same issue with my S8 near the earpiece.
My Galaxy s7 had this as well.. seems like a factory defect as it never got worse on the previous phone.

Oleophobic coating is great on my phone also. Seems you have a either a defective device or maybe even one of those counterfeit S8s?
Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Mine is still smooth and beautiful also. Sometimes almost too smooth.
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

Always happens on my Samsung phone right in the middle where I do my scrolling motion at. Needless to say I have been trying to not scroll n the same spot

No issue so far.

Any method to recover oleophobic coating? My s8 has no problem but with time all device will lose this...

Do you think this can be applied on a screen protector? I'll try it out and give feedback after I order it

My educated guess is no, not on standard film screen covers, however it may work on tempered glass screen covers. Oleophobic coating needs a glass surface to bond to.

Mine disappeared after a few weeks as well. Something I found that helped is my Oakley hydrophobic kit for the sunglasses. I tried it and it's only good for a week but it does help with fingerprints.

I suspected. I wish there was a film one that felt almost as good as glass.

Just to add, I had this problem with my s8 where there were rub marks going down both sides of the screen right where the screen begins to curve. I contacted an authorized Samsung repair center that was about 3 hours away, sent pictures and they confirmed that Samsung will cover the repair under warranty. So if anyone has this problem, try going direct to a repair center and they can confirm if it is covered. I just got my phone back and they put a new screen and battery,seals and full testing to ensure ip68 was still good. If you're lucky and they get approval in advance, they can do repair in a few hours, otherwise you will need to pay return shipping or drive back and pick it up.
Sent from my new again Samsung S8.

They will fix this in warranty if they can see it.
Even in Kenya!
P.S. when using oleophilic liquid kits you MUST seal all your ports, cover your camera lens and buttons. The liquid will plug everything - ear phone speaker - and clog the buttons so their difficult to push.

Would it be possible for you to take close up pictures of the edges?

Has anyone got one that covers the entire screen?

Hi all,
did anyone find a full-cover / 3D protector that doesn't cut away some pixels at the edge of the display? Seems all of the full cover screen protectors have this issue. I wish there was an alternative. I'm using the official case so I don't mind if the screen protector is a bit rough at the edge since it will blend over to the edge of the case anyway. But loosing a few pixels on every side of the display is a big no for me.
Thanks.

I bought the K20 pro protector and it covers too much. You actually loose a couple of pixels on each side of the display. Seems like the Mi Mix 3 protector has narrower bezels??

I have the same query as the poster above. Has anyone in India found a full screen covering tempered glass, which doesn't cut out the display in any way?
Bought the Flipkart smartbuy protector during launch, but it sucks. As it cuts way too much of display.
