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.

Pictures would be nice. I couldn't pass up this price even though I couldn't find any reviews.
I found some input on Reddit and 1 picture with a bumper on with a broken screen.

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.

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:

Can someone explain me the differences between the 4 options?

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

Hey guys, been looking through the forum but can't seem to find a good case that just clearly shows the back of the Nexus 4.
Some TPU cases have partial clear backs but usually with an ugly S or X shape and frosting on the other parts. Also people say the clear TPU part looks bad, like its stuck to the back glass and shows random bubbles depending on pressure.
Does anyone know of a good case with a clear back?
Would tempered glass front and back plus a bumper give good protection and still show the back?
A lot of us are waiting for this one.

We won't know for sure until we get it in our hands. What kind of SP are you planning on getting? If it's a wet applicator type, make sure you get the case fit kind.

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:

Or at their website:

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!

During sound playback you can tell a difference from not having the case in but it's not a huge let down like it was with my iPhone 5 Life Proof. As far as voice feedback in the ear goes it does take the noise canceling a second to catch up so on the first ring or so it sounds distorted but it quickly fixes itself. It's not making calls or listening to music. No more opening the bottom hatch to make sure someone can hear me. And as far as the plastic cover goes if you're meaning a screen protector like invisible shield then it will fit. They provide you an optional screen protector to put on (I used it). I do intend on investing in a better one later, probably Ghost Armor. Lmk if you have anything else

I just purchased the version without a screen protector built in. The nuud I believe. I have a Mime glass protector (not the thinnest one, but the one with rounded edges) and it fits. Now, I havent tested it because Im not going to submerge my phone just to find out on purpose, BUT it appears to fit and seal normally. ill try to get some pics for you later when I get off work,
Short answer, yes it fits.....

The Obex is good at waterproofing. It's got some cons tho. I reckon the LifeProof will be less bulky. The Obex makes the notification bar hard to pull down cuz it covers the part above the screen. I don't really like the plastic screen protector of the Obex case also. But it's still a good case to consider!

I'm not to happy with my obex anymore. The screen protector is pretty crappy, the case scratches fairly and the colored parts get dirty. I had it on for a while and I'm very careful with my phone and its all marked up case and screen protector. And the protecter isn't that clear either. Yeah it's good that tue case is scratched and not the phone but my otterbox commuter has been on my phone for a lot longer and still looks good.

Just thought i would let everyone know that right now, you can get the MIME Ghost Glass screen protector for 24.99 shipped. There is a code at the top of their site that gives free shipping in the US. Also, they apparently already have them stocked as i ordered it today and already recieved an email saying it has shipped.
I have had great luck with them in the past, they have curved edges which helps them blend into the bezel seamlessly and like most glass protectors they are simple to install.
Ill give my actual impressions once the phone itself is in hand.
I ordered mine last week. Will be here tomorrow. I'll post some pics and then have a full review up when my phone arrives.

Like I've had one on my iPhone 5S (yeah I know, iPhone, don't mention it) for months now and none of my friends who use my phone even know it's there.
I bought my wife the featherglass from mime and im honestly disappointed. Its chiooed all over the edges and its a week old. I think too thin is an issue with the glass protectors because ive had several mimes on my stuff and never seen that issue.

Hopefully they will come out with a feather+ for the S5.

i wouldn't count on it - the only model that has feather+ is the iPhone 5...
I ordered the Spigen Nano Sling Glas.tR a few days back...
How does MIME compare?
Ghost glass like a transparent?
The feather glass is excellent. The s5 has a lip around the permiter of the screen and the home button is raised. Because the feather is so thin it makes it seem as of the lip never existed and the home button sits totally flush with the screen now also. Someone had voiced concern about the feather glass chipping on the edges to easily. Well I do not see this being an issue on the s5 thanks to the raised lip. Truly could not work more flawlessly. The ghost glass is still an excellent choice. But I think you will get better bang for your buck out of the feather.

got my regular glass today and applied it...wondering now if i should've got the feather version instead.
it's super thin, BUT still thick enough that the home button is now flush with the surface of the screen - it's no longer raised. you have to press it in more directly now.
not fatal, but odd.

The feather is the same in the way the home button is now flush (so much nice than raised) and the "metal edge" around the phone sits flush as well. Maybe they actually sent you a feather?

Does anyone know if the Feather version could possible fit in the otterbox defender case after removing the otterbox built in screen protector of course? I've been doing this for the last few defender cases I've used but normally put a ZAGG hd on the phone for protection. I usually do this because the screen protector on the otterbox usually scratches and tends to lose some clarity over time and that is a great annoyance to me. What's the point in having that beautiful HD screen and can't see it clearly due to the screen protector not being clear or at least as clear as it should be.

Any issues with the fingerprint sensor at all with the mime or any glass protector?
