[If you enjoyed please leave a like and a thanks?]
Bought from atFolix on amazon.
Pros:
Fits with case
-Doesn't lose any screen quality
-Comes with 3 protectors for the front and 3 for the back
-Cuts are perfect
-Cheap compared to other nice screen protectors
-Comes with all the good accessories (to make the screen clear and take of the bubbles)
Cons
-Not the easiest screen protector to apply, I guess it is also my fault that I'm not really handy in those things!
You can buy it here:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/atFoliX-FX-...id=1366110496&sr=8-1&keywords=atFolix+nexus+4
Or at their website:
atFoliX
www.atfolix.com
has anyone else got these?
I wanna know opinions of other people also .. Might also do a give away

I'm rocking one of these. Took all 3 of the front protectors to get it right (my fault as I haven't applied a protector for years).
The rear was no problem, using it with a ringke fusion and no lifting from the protector.
Have small scratch on the protector so will have to get another pack soon.
All in all a bargain at the price

I have the slightly frosted/matte effect ones by the same company. They're absolutely fine. Took a bit of work to fit them properly but they've kept my n4 in tiptop shape. I dropped it on a hard floor today, expected the worst and all was fine - not the first time. I suspect these films are helping there to some degree. Buy them. V good value!

yeah i'm kinda helping them out also
some dust got under it from taking so long on applying.. might get another one .. still got 2 for the front so..
still rocking good.. I notice a small line with dots when it is in the sun.. i'll try to film it..
Why are these only available on the Amazon UK store, or ebay UK store? I don't want to pay for international shipping.
idk, i'll send them a message suggesting that :S

What do you guys think about this screen protector from XO Skins? http://xoskins.com/cell-phone-skin-protectors/google-skin-protectors/google-nexus-4-screen-protector
Had one for my G Nexus, EXTREMELY TOUGH... tested it when I removed it... (sending phone back to Amazon to refund for a nexus 4!)
It really is super tough.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I just ordered one the other day. I am hoping that it would get to me before the N4 arrives so that I do not have to worry about scratches on the screen. Read a lot of great reviews about XO Skins for different phones, and thought might as well try it. Hopefully it's not ~$14 down the drain.
Have a search on YouTube for tips on applying the skin, it makes all the difference! I searched for xo skin application galaxy nexus or similar... it's a breeze, really.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I have been researching them and it looks like this one is right for me. Apparently these don't have the orange peel look and I think these might be better than the hard/plastic protectors because I've gotten scratches quite easily. But they do seem like I don't have anything installed on them. I'm gonna give the XO Skins a try.

XO Skin is an excellent protector! I used to use one on my Nexus and I can tell you it's the best protector I've tried so far. No orange peel and the rubbery feeling goes away and feels quite smooth after about a week (or two? been awhile). Also the customer service at XO Skin is top notch, never seen anything better. Plus it comes with a lifetime warranty, why aren't you ordering it already?
Here's a reference to the XO Skin thread for the Galaxy Nexus if anyone wants to read up some user reviews on it:

or do they just make for screens.
Do they make full body skins? Or at least a back (screen) protector?

Yes they do, I ordered a full body one here:
http://xoskins.com/cell-phone-skin-...protectors/google-nexus-4-full-body-protector
They also do case fit versions too.
I won't use a wet applied skin protector if the screen itself is not in curve, why make it so trouble?
Although XO skin has very nice customer services (I returned 4 times...still getting a bad product, they gave me refund at the end), I was not impressed with their product.
Back to the Samsung Vibrant year, I use Realook clear SP which is really nice.
Do they still make nice screen protector now?
UPDATE:
Damn, just knew that the N4 STILL having curved glass but on the side.....................

From my experience, 4 out of 4 of my XOskins have rainbow effect for either the whole screen or partial screen.....which stop me from getting one for Nexus 4..
But I see reply saying Nexus 4 is still a curve screen on the edge..
so is that really no way for a dry-apply one to fully cover it?

btw ordered another set for the n4 using sprintxo promotion code. Dont bother getting any other shipping other than the usps priority cheap kind. I usually receive their packages in a day or 2 From their office which is in seattle i believe to connecticut.

I've seen a rainbow look while it was still wet. Sometimes it takes a few days to dry out.

I've read some stories of the XO Skin uplifting when some users put a case on, so I'm guessing the case fit version is to prevent that.

I guess I would rather be mad that I purchased 3 Full Body N4 sets for $6.00/shipped the pay more than double that for just one.... Hopefully they work okay but I have never really had too much a problem with the Extreme Guards for what they cost and I usually get a great application every time so I will wait it out until we get some REAL good ones coming in... I have never tried XO but I have heard that they are pretty good so def a thumbs up for the coupon code!! :good:
Hey does the full body include a screen protector with it?

Im not gonna lose sleep about paying 9 dollars for a screen protector, who cares xo is where its at you get what you pay for.
Can someone explain me the differences between the 4 options?
http://xoskins.com/cell-phones/google-skin-protectors-cases-shields-guards-armor-screen
As I get it the last 2 (for N4) are only front or back skin, but what are the first ones?
Thanks
Full body = front + back, not sure about sides.
Case fit = slightly smaller on all 4 sides so that certain cases, like TPU cases, don't peel it.
the videos of people taking these things off worries me a little looks like it places alot of pressure onto the device; id be worried id crack the glass pulling it off :S

It doesn't place pressure it's just stickier so it may seem that way.

Does full body mean the screen as well?
1. Full Body Protector is the front and back protectors. The front covers the whole front, including the curved edge - has cutout for the FFC and the sensors. The back covers the whole glass part.
2. Full Body Protector - Case Fit is essentially the same as the full body protector except it is cut smaller to fit with a case. Meaning there are space on the sides
3. Screen Protector is just the front protector, there is no protector for the back.
4. Screen Protector - Case Fit, look at #2 description. It is without the back protector also.
There are no side protectors.. the reason they gave me is that the material Google/LG made for the side is not very adhesive, so the protector will not stick.
Thanks homie ..just ordered one for 6 bucks on amazon too man oh well I'm sure these will be better and u can't beat 12 bucks and lifetime warranty

Really strange.
I was in Zambia recently for two weeks, and I took an extended battery and a screen protector.
Extrended battery was brilliant! The screen protector got lots of scuffs on it, even when it was in a pouch, took it off when I got home and the screen was perfect...so not sure if it did help or just that the screen protector was easily scratched! I never use a screen protector and haven't put one back on since being home...and all is perfect.
No harm in being safe I guess!
You can search on Amazon .

TOP QUALITY CLEAR LCD SCREEN PROTECTOR FOR SAMSUNG GALAXY buy 2 get 5. very good lay lol
not enuff post to be allowed to post links
Hi guys. This thread is a little old now, but I thought I'd ask again on the thread instead of posting a new one.
I am currently using the Spigen Nano Clear on my s3 mini but I've found them to be easily scratched. Unfortunately, I've already run through all 3 pieces included in the pack within 6 mths.
Anyway, I'm looking to buy another screen protector now and am wondering which brand offers the best screen protectors for our model. I've seen a few glass screen protectors but none are from the bigger companies (feels dodgy). Any recommendations for screen protectors (glass or not doesn't really matter)..? Cost is not a factor if the product is exceptionally made.

who knows if flip covers are working on cm11?
Ok so my gf got the S5 and she is trying to find a good screen protector, I personally like wet application screen protectors because they are the easiest to get on and have the best adhesion. So i was wondering if there was any good one for the S5?
She wants one that is clear, scratch resistant, and smug resistant but dont cost an arm and leg (a round the 20 mark max)?
If there isn't one that is water application but still have really good adhesion (meaning it stick to the edges of the phone) then will be willing to consider that as well.
Thanks in advance!!!

No she's never considered tempered glass protectors before and when I explained it to her she didn't seem all that interested in it since it's kinda became the trend where we both didn't have a screen protector on our last phone and suffered minimal scratches. So don't see the need for something as extreme as an extra layer of glass. But maybe the Zagg HD might work thanks.

Just a little more info. The tempered glass protectors do add a little more protection than the regular protectors but that's no where near the reason I recommend them. It's for the feel. It feel like you don't have a protector at all....like using the phone naked. Just my 2 cents. Since I started using them a couple years I won't use anything else.

There are typically several options available. For example spigen and mime are the two companies whose glass I've used and they both offer ultra thin versions or standard versions with rounded edges. Personally I prefer the rounded edges as the transition from the home button and such is smooth as can be. As far as case issues I've never had that problem. Especially on phones like the s5 where the bezel actually has its own little lip anyways.
I did a review on the neo hybrid somewhere in the accessories forum and I have my screen protector on in those pics but I don't recall if there is a good view or not. I will gladly take a couple photos and post them here for you on my lunch break.

Tempered glass is the way to go, adds a little bit of thickness but feels like using the phone naked, I had the zagg HD on while I waiting for my glass ones to come in. The Zagg was very good for the wet application but still has that rubbery feel all wet application suffer from. Look on ebay or amazon you can get them dirt cheap for around 5 dollars, I usually buy 4 at a time and once they get a little beat up or the anti finger print coating starts to wear off I replace them.

I think it's just as good if not better than the stock screen.

lol typos happen don't spend 25 dollars on the same thing that cost five. I got mine in 12 days shipped for free. I have tried probably every brand of tempered glass out there in the last 3 years. I bought 60 dollar ones and 5 dollar ones, the only thing to make sure of is that they have an oleophobic coating.

Typos do happen. That being said the oleophobic coating is definitely not the only thing to worry about. Fit is important and the cheaper ones don't necessarily have the exact fit but the may. Hardness is extremely important as its what determines scratch resistance. Thickness is also a big deal. The difference between .3mm and .23 mm doesn't seem like much but it can create an obvious lip and also cause case issues. Also, rounded edges are a huge deal and not all glass protectors have them. And the thicker the protector the more important rounded edges become.

Looks like gorilla glass 5 scratches like no other, so I figured this thread could help others with reviews and recommendations. I saw gpel made an all clear cover, and there's a few similar ones on Amazon. I'll try to update as we get some more time to check quality.

Are there any for the back of the phone yet? Gorilla Glass 5 scratches so easily I think I want tempered front and back (I prefer no case).

I'd personally go for a slickwraps or dbrand skin for the back of you don't like cases. It'll protect it, and you can get something like a leather to still keep the premium look.
thank you for thread , i hope we found soon good protectors
I hope someone will test out some of the crap on eBay, because I sure as hell am not going to pay 50+ dollars for a screen protector.
I ordered this one personally.

I can leave a review on it once I try it out. I'm hoping that a clear protector will function better than the painted ones I've used with the S7E.

Try it out and let us know. If the one I get isn't that great I'll return it and try something else until I find something that is good enough.
Hi Y´all!
I ordered this one yesterday:
https://shop.brando.com/brando-workshop-full-screen-coverage-curved-glass-protector-samsung-galaxy-note7-transparent_p14575c1547d8.html
I´ve had good experience with Brando for the screen protector for my old trusty SGN3.
But the shape of the screen on the SGN7 has got to be a challenge.
On a flat screen a 10TH of a mm / 5 100TH of an inch doesn´t matter.
Here the shape has to be just right for the sticky coating to make a bubble & distortion free experience.
I saw a screen protector review on Youtube:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQXq0ewUJtU
This product tried to handle small differences in curvature etc. by only applying sticky coating on the edges.
I would have to agree with reviewer. That doesn´t work.
With 20/20 hindsight I might have thought to ask Brando about this before making the order - Oh well :fingers-crossed:
Regards
Elo
Can't wait to see the results!!

Yeah. I bought one of those but I think it will be exactly as crappy as the YouTube video above shows. Time to look for some plastic variant... ???

Anyone find one for the back yet?

I got this one. It's terrible. Doesn't sit flush, doesn't stick well cos there's only glue around the edges, and not enough of it, doesn't have cut outs for all the optics on the top. I also got a standard screen protector as well, an iqshield, and that's what is on my phone now.

I ordered the same one. Hopefully it will work well.
On the other hand, I currently have a Skinomi one on mine (wet application). I'm using masking tape to hold down the edges as it dries and adheres. So far it's almost invisible because I took my time. No rubbery feel either. If my case works well with it I might not even install the glass one.
Leaving the plastic sticker on the back glass for now, though.
Edit: Just read the comment above mine regarding the same TGSP
FFS enough with the tempered glass screen protectors. They all suck and will always suck.

Sucks to hear. I've got an IQ shield as well for a backup just in case.

I think I might go with a skinomi cover for the back of mine. Not sure which color will look best with the coral blue.

So far the IO shield full body is doing its job on mine. Looks good. I have this glass one on order and it should be here today. I'm hesitant on pulling the IO shield off because it's doing it's its job but I have had glass for the last 3 phones and never had a break / scratch. They work much better than plastic.

Lol I meant to write "whose owned". Just got up, sorry.
Either way if I see the screen protector has that tape only on the sides I'll probably just return it.
