[Q] Colorant USG Screen Protector - Galaxy S 4 Accessories

Saw this for sale at a local Cell phone shop but they were asking $40 for it, checks online don't show any better of a price.
My question is, Is this particular screen protector worth it over the $5-6 ones i can find online?

Nope. Not worth the extra coin.

i think you are mistaken for a plastic screen protector vs tempered glass. Tempered glass protectors usually run around the price you see on amazon ( i have yet to find a reliable tempered glass protector for under $10 not talking about chinese knock-offs).
The one you posted from amazon is .4mm which is significantly thick and you will feel that you are touching an extra piece of glass. There are better ones out for a lower price (.15mm is the thinnest glass protector i know of from Spigen).

Screen Protectors Recalled ??? According to Bestbuy

I walked into a Bestbuy yesterday to buy a screen protector for the note 4, there were none. When I asked girl in mobile said they were all recalled? Anyone hear this?
Would not surprise me. ZAGG ones didn't fit properly.
I have not heard of this. I was in a Best Buy yesterday, but I did not take the time to view their screen protectors there. I prefer to buy my protectors from Amazon.com as they are much cheaper and you receive a good amount depending on which you buy from Amazon.

When I purchased my Note 4 at Best Buy I also purchased the Zagg glass shield screen protector and paid to have them apply it (good thing). The fist one he thought some lint got into the edges as they would not stick no matter how he rubbed and rubbed. He then opened another package (of no cost to me as the first was "defective") and that too did the same thing. So, I just had them refund me my money for the screen protector and the service charge to apply it. But, here's the clincher, I went to a sprint store to see if maybe Best Buy just had a bad batch or something? Well, the sales rep there said they are not recommending them right now because they are not sticking around the edges. So, bottom line you're better off going amazon for now till they get a fix.
Ive used the zaggs from bestbuy since my s3 and had them on my s3,s4,n3,s5 and now my n4. Always used the clear hd plastic ones and decided to go with the same for the n4. Works and looks great. Maybe its just the glass ones.
its not amazon, its not best buy, its not the sprint store. its our Note 4's screen. its slightly curved so the edges on the tempered glass cant stick, they arnt bendable enough. theyre making a "bendable" tempered glass screen protector but thats going to come out a little bit later on, probably after more R&D. i have a ebay screen tempered glass protector and it also has the same issues. i used to work at best buy and its all the same stuff. i personally use the ebay one while not completely sticking to the edges, it does still provide some protection and with the screen on, you cant tell that its not sticking.

Official Samsung Screen Protectors (Made in Korea by Samsung)

Received Official Samsung Screen Protectors (Made in Korea by Samsung); I personally don't see why I should be spending this much on PET film, when there are better ones costing cheap! These Samsung PET's costed me $20 dollars including shipping. I haven't opened the item because its going back to where it came from, lol. :good:
What are your thoughts?
Sorry, I dont get it. Why is it not worth it?
It's unnecessarily expensive. These screen protectors serve temporary protection. Then after all the grime accumulates, you take it off and toss in the trash. You might as well buy something more permanent such as a tempered glass screen protector.
Also, eBay sells dozens of PET film screen protectors, some which are of very decent quality. Xtreme_Guard is selling a 6-pack for only $2.49. Definitely worth it.

I see, got it. Here in our country it cost ~$13.
Why buy it in the first place if its too expensive?
Lol, the order was placed by accident and wasn't able to cancel prior to shipping. I don't know what Samsung is trying to get out of this; but not all your accessories have to be made by Samsung. Here's what I purchased along with the Note 4:
- Mini Wireless Charging Pad (Samsung)
- Otterbox Defender (Black) with Holster
- Zagg HDX and Glass (Note 4)
- A Dozen or So Screen Protector Pack from eBay (for Backup)
- Skinomi Techskin (Clear) for the Note 4
- Pouch
There were additional things I purchased, but later realized how unnecessary it was, and returned them.

How on earth you ordered them by mistake, haven't used them and you can say they does not worth it?
I've bought mine for $9 and I'm going to apply one of them tomorrow and will have real opinion.
And 2 other things - it is Samsungs accessory and it is normal to cost more. And TGP are having halos, so this is an option for protecting your screen.
Please change the threat topic - it is misleading.
I have one applied (the package comes with two) and I'm quite satisfied. Fit is good, smooth to touch, s-pen glides over it... I like it. Can't say about durability because I only have it for a week.
the real question is, does samsung official screen protector actually cover the whole screen with no halos? I'm curious to see if they actually made a screen protector that covered the whole screen knowingly making a curved screen.

Since these are plastic film screen protectors, of course it doesn't cover the entire glass. It's impossible with this type of protector. The only kind that can currently do that are the wet apply rubber style protectors.

(INDIA) Tempered Glass - Top Brands Vs Low Cost ?

Has any1 used top brands tempered glass like iloom or spigen ??
What would be better to buy 2000 Rupees Spigen or local glass protector from ebay that 200 Rupees .... that like 10 for the price of 1 branded....
Although from what i have used these local ones start chipping from the sides after 2 months or so ....
Please advise ...
Or should i just go for a deal that would be like buy 10 pieces of local glass for one seller and ask for a bulk discount on ebay cause they will chip and break after a couple of months of use....
Please share your experiences ...
:good:
I had the spigen's Glas.tr, it was bulky and the cut out was just bad. Replaced it with Nillkin's 9H+ Pro, it's over a month now and I don't regret it. Sturdy and seamless. Costs about the same (800-1000Rs).

it is really cool. They even have a lifetime warranty i cracked my tempered glass (from another brand, not intoro) after dropping it for th 6th time :/ Was planning on buying a new tempered glass. Maybe ill try this one
Not too fond of companies that offer lifetime warranty. They charge you for shipping and handling which costs around $10 each order. Not really lifetime warranty when you have to pay 50% of product cost.
Only 2mm thick? Sounds cool. The ones I can get are all 3mm thick.

Question Screen protector

What is the best screen protector for s22 ultra?
A good case with slightly raised guards on all sides like the Zizo Bolt or the display will likely get broke.
Easy to apply hygrocell screens like the Gorilla IQ Sheild work well, are inexpensive and last 6+months.
Also, be careful using the glass protectors (non hydrogel), because they can interfere with the fingerprint reader. I had a bad experience with this, and now I'm using only hydrogel that works fine.
Hidrogel protectors are a very good option, they are cheap, no need to buy from expensive brands, because they are very cheap, you can buy several, and replace them as often as you desire, they are really easy to aply, and no bubbles after some hours after the colocation in case some remain at the moment of placement, I bought 6 of them for 3 dollars in aliexpress

Do you all have a recommended screen protector from amazon that I can buy?
some time ago, I used armor suit protectors, they are made in England, but are of the "wet" aplication method , those protectors are slightly thicker, and have an "orange skin" like appearance whe the screen is off, are self healing to some degree, I think they were 8-10 dollars for front and back set
I'm not searching for something thick, I'm searching for something strong.
I can't find hydrogel with good reviews on amazon, there are some on aliexpress.
Can someone send me a link to a good sp?
Just get this one and thank me later EGV Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra
I think you can get this on aliexpress. Hydrogel film that protects front sides and back. it's what I'm using for myself and my wife.
