Does anyone have the Spigen dual side screen protector with the play store Nexus 4 Bumper?
If you do- How does it fit and would you recommend it because I'm looking at possibly getting this combo.
I could save $15 and get a poetic bumper for $5 instead of the $20 play store one. The only thing is I prefer the look of the play store one.
I can also get the play store one for much cheaper later on.
I was also thinking of getting the Poetic Atmosphere because it looks so nice on the iPhone 5 an the Spigen (just front) screen protector.
But maybe I'll just get them both and decide for myself.
I have the spigen dual ordered. Should be here next week. I have the bumper already but I'm not sure if I'm going to keep it or not. I'm not liking how it makes the phone feel. The bumper is not as slim as I thought.
I have this exact combo - simply perfect.

I have the combo as well and I wouldn't necessarily call it perfect, though I like the combo. I think the front protector doesn't cover enough of the sides, so there is a gap between the bumper and the protector... You can feel it when swiping from the edges (ex: when switching between tabs in Chrome).
I think a better case / protector combo is the Spigen with Diztronic... The case covers enough of the sides so there is barely a gap on the sides.
Anyways, since I prefer the bumper, I'll wait for the Phantom tempered glass protector and hope that the fit will be nicer.
I'll try to post a few pics tomorrow.

I have the same combo and like others have mentioned I don't like that the front protector does not go edge to edge on the screen, but it was expected. I don't like wet application ones so I'll just suck it up.

Spigen released some dry application ones for the Galaxy S3 that covered the whole screen (which has curved edges) so we just have to wait!
Spigen has made curved glass protectors before (for the gs3) but the reviews for that particular protector are terrible.
The hardness is half that of the current N4 one they have.
Can somebody please post a picture of the combo.
And has anybody dropped their phone? Any stories about the combo?

Here you go (also showing my first attempt at snapseed haha). The protector just barely reaches to where the screen begins to curve down on the sides. The back is near perfect luckily. Let me know if you need to see any additional pictures.

While the novelty of the Spigen Curved Crystal protectors is nice, they are incredibly easy to scratch it seems. I have a coworker that got the Curved Crystal protectors for her GS3, and she was disappointed at how easily they got visible hairline scratches. The first one she was rough with, but the 2nd one she took care to keep covered with the official GS3 book-like case that has a front flap, and it somehow still managed to get scratched.
I really think that if you want to cover the whole glass on the Nexus 4, you pretty much have to go with a wet apply. I'm almost a mandatory dry apply person, but I must say, it really makes it look as if you cheaped out on the screen protector to anybody else that looks at your phone. The bumper only accentuates this visual problem. Personally I'm cursing LG and Google for even doing this to the screen, it seems utterly gimmicky, pointless, and makes it absolute hell to get a good smooth dry apply screen protector on the phone. I find myself actually avoiding using the sloped edge because I run right into the edge of my dry screen protector. I usually start my swipes right at the edge of the screen protector.

What is the difference between dry and wet application in terms of the screen's curve.
Correct me if I'm wrong but what I take you're saying is that wet application screen protectors will cover the entire (curved)N4 screen as dry ones won't (or if they do they won't be too good)

I don't actually have a wet apply protector myself, but I ordered a Best Skin's Ever full body set that should be delivered sometime next week, along with a Spigen Dual set. From reading up on them though, it seems like all of the wet apply ones do actually cover the entire glass, which would make sense as they're totally floppy and flexible during the installation phase. The tough part, even with those, seems to be getting them to cure and stick permanently to the curved glass.
I think I'll give the BSE a try and see how it goes before the Spigen, based on some people's comments that the BSE seems smoother than other brands of wet applies. I typically really hate the rubbery drag that the wet applies have.

That post is 2 weeks old. I'm sure that will change.
What is the quality of the screen protector included with the Otterbox Commuter Series? I just ordered a brand new one (half off normal price on eBay), and though I already know that I love the case, I'm curious as to the quality of the screen protector that comes with it. Is there any screen clarity that is lost when it is applied correctly?
I've had the ZAGG Invisible Shield on my phone for a couple of months, and the screen quality on it was awful. It was so pixelated. I just took it off. This phone has such a gorgeous screen that if I can't have a screen protector that doesn't sacrifice the gorgeous HD display, I'd rather have none.
So I guess there's two parts here: is the included screen protector good, and if not, what is a good screen protector that works with the Commuter Series and doesn't sacrifice the screen quality?

Haven't got one for the gs4 yet but with precious otterbox I end up taking it off.
Since it only go over the screen and not stuck to the screen, it still allowed dirt and small particles to get under it. I ended up having to take the case apart to much to clean the dirt. So I took the screen protector portion off and applied a regular screen protector.
BTW you have s link to this eBay half off deal?

Just search for "otterbox commuter series galaxy s4" into the eBay search bar. There's tons of cases for much cheaper than the store or website. I was able go get one for $18, half off the official website and $22 less than Best Buy.
BTW, it sounds like you're talking about the defender series.

Yes sorry it was the Defender series that I've gotten in the past.
Well I'm 99% sure I got suckered into buying a fake Otterbox. I guess we'll see when it gets here.
I have the commuter and the screen protector that comes with it is pretty junky. It has the rainbow effect. Color streaks that you see far too often. I bought an iloome glass protector and its great! The only thing is they have crappy home buttons, they are cheap plastic or used to be. Idk if they changed to aluminum but I got an aluminum home button for a couple bucks and its all good

I can second that screen protector is junk. Hard to clean, rainbows really bad. I would recommend the spigen glas.tr nano if you have another 35 to burn. Best screen protector ive ever had.
Are these glass screen protectors easy to install cleanly? Do they leave any bubbles and is the screen still HD crisp? Also, do they fit well with the Commuter Series case? Sorry for all the questions.

They are super easy to install, Judy place on top of a clean screen and press... no bubbles because it is a solid piece of glass. There is a possibility for one large air bubble butt that is an easy fix, just lift up and slowly apply again by setting it back on top and press from the middle out.
It should fit that case but if the glass doesn't go to the edge perfectly or if the glass is too think, then it may not stay on right. Good luck!

I don't understand how the Zagg screen protectors detract from the screen quality... Yeah, if there are fingerprints on it maybe, but on a clean install I can't even tell there's a screen protector on it. To the original question though, the OB screen protector is terrible. I use the Otterbox defender, but the 1st thing I did was pop the crappy plastic screen protector off of it and put the Zagg protector on the phone. It's not like the Otterbox's screen protector is there to do anything more than prevent scratches to the screen.
I'm not sure it is clearly understood that there is a difference between the Commuter and Defender screen protectors. The Defender's is built in, while the Commuter's is a separate protector that is applied. I want to know the quality of that one.
As for the ZAGG, I've concluded that it's because of the Best Buy install. On lighter colors, the screen looked so ridiculously pixelated. It's an insult to the gorgeous screen that the S4 has.
At this point, I'll probably get a glass protector at some point, unless I love the protector I get with the case.
The iloome glass I have fits great with the commuter case. And its easy to put on. Just have to make sure the screen is clean. The glass stays straight so it very easy to align
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
Dont get the defender, the in built screen protector is worse than the separate one that comes with the commuter. It doesn't sit completely flat against the screen and will result in even worse rainbow effects and little pockets of separation that look terrible. Overall as good as the commuter case is i don't think that you would really gain much protection. That said the outside of the defender does feel really nice with the silicon.
As for glass screen protectors mine has been great and was really easy to install. Only thing is once its on, its on for good or at least until you change to a new one.
I think I'm gonna go for the iloome. It's on sale for $25 with free shipping on their website. I've spent a lot of money on protection for this phone, but it's still less than the insurance deductible on a new one.

I was worried about the same thing, but mine turned out to be authentic (I think). Look for:
Quality of silicone lining - Otterbox uses fairly stiff, yet flexible, silicone in their cases. The fakes usually use flimsy stuff that flops around and offers no protection.
Packaging - website listed on back, otterbox hologram sticker, sku sticker, etc. If the cardboard insert is printed to show a dummy screen, it's probably a fake. All of the otterbox inserts I've seen have been plain black.
A lot of people emphasize where it is made. I'm not too sure about that. I'd rather go by quality issues and obvious errors in design or packaging.
Look on youtube under "fake otterbox" and you'll see plenty of samples.
Good luck!
I must have got a good one, the screen protector that came with my otterbox commuter is just fine. No rainbow effect or anything

Folks
Recently I bought the UAG Maverick Case for my Note 4, and it's stunning beauty made like to resist any space impact with a style.
The screen protector film came with it is indeed offers decent protection, but it's terribly one fingerprint/smudge magnet. My hands do sweat at times and indeed gets oily often. So y'all can imagine how awkward using a beast.
Also the touch feel has been horribly ruined with the protection film, The feel of Spigen premium series is entirely different from this.
Many of the Note 4 users has said, Tempered Glass offers tough protection without taking down much the actual glass feel of the touch screen. So pals, Please do suggest me the best tempered glass solutions which covers a bit out of the display area (black screen) with the UAG Case on.
No Halo effects, Fingerprints and smudge shouldn't be attracted and must be wiped like in actual screen.
Thanks

I have a UAG case with a Moshi iVisor edge-to-edge protector on. Application was easy and there is no halo. It fits fine with the UAG case. However, please note that I have not tried taking the case off, and I have only been using this setup for just over a week. Others have reported that the iVisor can get dust under it through time, as it only has adhesive round the edges and not under the glass. As yet, I have not experienced this. An alternative might be the Momax or the Tough Armour as I believe these do have adhesive under the glass as well as the edges. I purchased a Momax too, but have not tried it as the iVisor is perfect at the moment. (Note that the first Momax had the capacitive buttons wrong (menu instead of recent apps), but on the one I got that has been corrected). Have a good read through the many threads on Tempered Glass protectors, as others have experimented with different brands and also use UAG cases.
I bought an arcadia full screen protector. It did not work well with UAG. Popped the glass up. I loved the look of the glass that I got rid of my 2 uag cases.

Thanks Kinsman-UK giving your view on Moshi iVisor! :good: Just can't think of getting dust/debris getting through the edges as it may result more damage than actually keeping the screen bare. I've checked the Momax website and found Glass Pro XS Screen Protector but turned down no luck to order one
I ordered my Momax from shop.brando.com - they seem to still have black and white versions available, post internationally.
Is that all?
I've gone nuts selecting over tons of brands, seriously picking up the right phone was never been this hard.
My prime needs are,
1. Compatibility with UAG Case over the phone. It must not pop of even on the small impact with the case.
2. It must sit some area more than actual screen (black area).
3. Good bonding with screen and don't let any dust/debris let through the groves or edges of the protector.
Somewhere landed between some premium and well known brands, viz
iloome, Moshi, MOMAX, intelliARMOR
I don't know about other people's experience but I have dropped my Note 4 three times in the past week (I know! Unbelievable, never dropped my old phone once, and then I get a new one and...) - anyway, the Moshi was not affected by the drops and is still firmly attached. I've only been using it for a couple of weeks, and haven't had the UAG off an on yet, but it seems fine. I think the Momax will probably be even better as it has adhesive all over, but I haven't tried it on yet because the Moshi is fine for the moment. The only thing I would say is that when applying the Moshi I left the phone out of the case for two days, and applied pressure all around the edges to make sure it was well adhered before putting the UAG on. This is just my experience, so just FWIW and YMMV etc etc
EDIT: Note that the Moshi does have a 'dot matrix' pattern in the glass (something to do with the way it is strengthened I think), but it is only noticeable if you look closely in direct sunlight. I only mention it because some people may see this as a problem - doesn't bother me (in fact I struggle to see it at all in normal use).
I use the Spigen slim Armor Case with the "Ultimate xplosion proof" crystal clear screen protector and have not lost any noticeable sensitivity at all. Not trying to convince you... just what I use and 100% happy with it

At this point, I've tried three different glass screen protectors for the G5. I've tried a Pleson screen protector, an iCarez, and a SuperShieldz. All three of them didn't adhere and I had to through them away.
Am I the only one with this problem? I mean, there has to be a way to protect the screen, but I'm just getting so frustrated. If you have the same problem, or if you found a solution, please let me know...
Thanks in advance, and sorry for the rant. I'm just getting annoyed with what should be a straightforward process.
I had the same issue with the Tech Armor (http://www.amazon.com/Tech-Armor-Ba...-1&keywords=lg+g5+screen+protector+tech+armor).
Ended up with an amfilm film protector. It actually sticks to the screen and works pretty well. http://www.amazon.com/Protector-amF...507712&sr=8-2&keywords=lg+g5+screen+protector

GPEL has a model on pre-order right now for $25 ($30 msrp I guess). It appears to be made expressly contoured to fit the G5 properly, was a video on Reddit in the G5 sub showcasing it. Might be something. This is a gorilla glass phone like all the rest of them though so you'd have to really work at it to scratch it, screen protectors are not necessary.
I would hate to go back to film protectors because i've been using them for years, but I'm seeing a ton of negative thoughts about the glass versions for this phone. Might be a good idea to sacrifice the quality so the screen can be protected.
I just went to the Spigen films and it works well, smooth with no issues with installation

Not the only one, my PET screen protectors don't seem to stay adhered for more than a week. Kinda annoying. Checking Amazon reviews, there seems to be a lot of these issues.
If you like matte protectors like I do, this one has been great. I had to replace it when the spigen case (the one with the chin piece for easy battery removal) I was using peeled it back, but both installs have been flawless. I now use the thin fit spigen with 0 issues.

Very easy to install,you would never know it's on,it matches the phone perfectly. No bubbles what so ever,it does not mess with the quality of screen images or color. It fits over the curved edges nicely.It has a little bit of a lip towards the bottom,by the LG logo,but not a big deal. I'd highly recommend this to anyone wanting a tempered glass screen. G-Color did a very nice job with this. It also sticks to the edges,ive had no issues.

G5 screen protector
Just got a new G5 and been lurking around for a better screen protector and read all reviews but i'm hesitant to get any of it but I might try this.
.http://www.pure-gear.com/shop-by-device/lg/extreme-impact-screen-protector.html
For the minute, the one that was on the phone is doing fine for me, when it needs swapping, I'll try and get a Zagg one as theyre pretty good.
My current Phone is a Note 4.
I have always used Spigen screen protectors. The one on my Note 4 was applied almost 2 years ago and it only has minor scratches.
I noticed Spigen doesn't currently have a screen protector for the Note 7. Should I wait ? If not, is there a good alternative ?
Also the screen is curved. Does this mean the screen protector peels off from the sides ?
Iq shield or skinomi

Contacted Amazon support and they said it should be here by tonight.

i use skinomi. works great on the edges (note edge, s7 edge)
They last long and are pretty cheap. if you ever have to replace one.
Wet install so always bubble free.

+1 for the Skinomi's , but on my Note Edge, i had that orange-like surface on the screen when looking from an angle!
I ll go for the IQ shield when i receive my phone. Had good experience in the past with it.
Trying 3 different products I was sent for review. They are in shipment...
Skinomi
IQ Shield
ArmorSuit
The Note 7 will be my first curved screen phone (upgrading from an S5) and I plan to get either an Otterbox or Spigen case for it. I had a screen protector for my GNex and hated it! Is a screen protector really necessary (or more necessary than non-curved screens)? Other than "necessity" what advantages do screen protectors add? I'm looking for some honest feedback since I have zero experience with curved phones.

I have received a slew of cases via amzreviewtrader.com
I have 6 cases so far with a bunch more in the way. Mainly from lesser known brands but I think some will do a great job.
Their is a myriad to try out. I used Versus Thor on my Note 4 & Versus Neo Hybrid (their frame is aluminum vs Spigen had plastic frame).
3 Screen protector kits (not tempura glass)
Skinomi
ArmorSuit
IQ Shield
Will share my results. After seeing that gorilla glass 5 scratch test on YouTube, I definitely want something. It's such a pain. Why can't they make something super difficult to scratch?

So those of you that have experience with the Skinomi HD Clear screen protectors, I have a question for you. I bought this case for my phone:
Galaxy Note 7 Case, Spigen® [Rugged Armor] Resilient [Black] Ultimate protection from drops and impacts for Samsung Galaxy Note 7 (2016) - (562CS20403) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01GIUIFEI/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_apa_oNyTxbE3YE34X
Now this case is pretty minimal. Meaning it isn't very bulky and doesn't add a ton of protection. So with that being said, would the full coverage protector work or do I still need to go with the case friendly version? I'd appreciate any advice.
I had to get case friendly screen protectors for my S7 edge, pretty much all of my cases would lift the screen protector. I used IQshield and Skinomi full coverage on my S7 edge.
I also have the full coverage IQshield for the Note 7 and it's not installing very good. The edge is smaller on the Note 7 so the sides keep popping up. I have an Armorsuit case friendly that I will try soon.
I got the official screen protector with my note7 today at my local samsung store along with a bunch of other goodies in a cheap bundle.
the screen protector is film and not glass, but it's not flimsy, and is already pre-shaped to cater for the curve. it came with two in one pack.
the application was easy enough, as it came with dust stickers and a surprisingly high-quality hard-card with soft felt hemming on it for pushing out air bubbles.
it covers around 90% of the front glass panel, but still covers the whole display area itself, and reaches around the curves too, and is inconspicuous when put on properly.
definitely happy with it and will stick with this one until a really good quality curved glass protector comes out.

Anyone have the finished product for IQ shield. People seem to be praising them.
