The screen is gorilla glass. If you scratched it, it wasnt with one of those cards....I put mine face down, in my pocket with change and keys and my wallet and everything. No scratches at all. Somrtimes I ever throw it on the couch where it has been sat on and once the ol lady stepped on it.

Really the screen is gorilla glass?. I have read about this but nothing is confirmed.
Anyway, i installed a CM Barely There Case + screen protector.

do you happen to have one of the Inspires with the loose bottom right corner? The glass has been known to lift up. If so, swap it under warranty.

I've said it before and I will say it again. No matter what measures you take to prevent your screen from getting scratched, it pays to invest in screen protectors and protective cases. Its well worth the investment.

Mine glass is coming up at the bottom left,quite a bit actually. Do you think its a warrant for an exchange because it annoys the living **** out of me. It's also getting worse as time goes on

Manufacturing defect and yeah do it before the thing falls apart and you cant claim warranty on it. On the other hand that sucks op I've had mine thrown at the edge of a coffe table at starbucks bounced hit a wooden chair and then the floor all facing the glass the first day...I picked it up not a single scratch. That was when i knew <3 inspire.

Screen protectors look like ass.... Even that ghost armor crap looks horrible. I bought the warranty. I'll hook it up to a car battery charger if need be and return it...lol

I agree with all the people here, this looks like a factory defect and your phone should be covered by the warranty. Go ahead and replace it with a new one.
Good luck

Yeah man that sucks. I scratched mine about 15 days in to. I had it in my pocket with the keys. Not a huge scratch, but there none the less. I have a zagg on it now, but I hate the way it looks with it, and I really hate cases. I would also say there is no way in hell a gift card scratched the glass, that ****e is pretty damn strong. I am WAY harder on phones than most and considering the glass is in really good shape. Love the gg.
I guess you could try for a warranty claim. I decided that it was my fault and as such on me. Your case is in no way the same as mine. Good luck man.

Antiglare vs Standard vs Mirror screen protectors

====================================
WHAT SCREEN PROTECTOR TYPE IS BEST?
CLICK HERE FOR MY CONCLUSION
(or go to post #14)
====================================
(original post below)
Please share your experience with "antiglare" screen protectors if you have or had used one and help me make my mind?
I have a cheap standard/glossy $1 screen protector for now, but since our phones have screens basically unreadable in the sun I think the kind of s.p. matters more than in other phones case
I had one of the first "mirror" screen protectors few years back, and it was horrible. It made the screen appear slightly distorted. Has this been improved by now?

I used the antiglare type of screen protectors on my evo and evo shift and i loved them and refuse to use any other kind, but they have their drawbacks. Number 1 is it washes the screen out just slightly so its not as crisp and colors are a bit more dull. 2 it feels werid and its hard to explain how they feel its like your finger slides really easy because its a really slick surface, but the surface also feels rough. Like i said i loved them and i might see about getting one for my doubleshot.
*edit*
Also just remembered that the anti glare screen protectors aren't as prone to fingerprints on the screen which is a major gain

I've had the mirror screen protectors and there horrible in the sunlight, I prefer the regular ones its much easier to see the screen it dark/bright light.

I already have hard time seeing my screen outdoors and can't see it at all in the sunlight, so I guess antiglare s.p. isn't for me... Too bad I already ordered it on ebay If you still want it I can send it to you once it arrives here (should be next week - and sending from Canada to US outta be way faster than ordering it from China to USA) just PM me

Well when I said it washes the screen out some its because its blocking glare, I'm telling you hands down they are the best ones I have ever seen, if you get it in and its not for you ill take it off your hands, but once you actually see it I think you will love it

I'm sure you can't, who cares if the colors wash out a bit, when you can use the phone in direct sunlight, and its less prone to finger smudges lol

Ditto to just about everything you said. I personally use the antiglare just for the sole purpose of not having to constantly wipe fingerprints with my shirttail.
It for sure a strange texture to the touch at 1st but actually is smoother and more precise than the glossy kind.
Yes, it does dim the display and make it a bit less vibrant, but I turn up the brightness a tad and it is fine.
All in all, I personally prefer the antiglare just for the fingerprint resistance. Enjoy yours when you get 'em!

Well, the antiglare screen protector arrived today already, and I am actually pissed and I love it too
I haven't test it yet in the sun because I just got home, but I love the texture of it, the matte look, and I can tell it really is anti-glare since it has dispersed even my camera's flash light when I took the photo below
I am pissed because before I order it I emailed the seller to make sure they do have MyTouch 4G Slide screen protectors, yet they have sent me some other one (I'm guessing it might be for MT4G and not the "Slide" version, but I'm not sure). It is too short and has different cam/sensors cut-outs at the top.
I foolishy trusted it is the correct one when it arrived and I had already ripped-off my "clear" one, so I had to install it for now. Which makes me double-pissed
To make things worse my order is labeled "SPAG-HTC-MYT4G-SL" - IMO it means "ScreenProtectorAntiGlare-HTC-MYTouch4G-SLide" - yet it is wrong one they've shipped, gee

Tried to get a good look at my wife's MT4G (non-slide) and it is hard to tell with some ugly decal thing she has on it, BUT I will say, if you lined it up at the bottom correctly, it looks way too short. It probably is for the MT4G. I am pretty sure, because when I use her protectors as an emergency, I have to trim them all the way around to fit my MT4GS. Apparently the slide is a bit smaller than the non.
How many came in your order? I have to order like 12 at a time because I always screw up about 4 of them before I get one on with no dust dots under it

I order only set of 2 (just to try - never had anti-glares before), but I think this seller has packs of 10 as well (same price tho).
If you want I can take more pics to show you, but yeah I have aligned it at the bottom perfectly, so that's exactly how it comes out on top.
Mind you: this *is* Slide what I have, and the screen protector is slightly narrower (about 1mm on each side) and too short by about 4mm (not to mention the "cut-outs" are wrong) so if this screen protector is for the "non-Slide" MT4G version then the "non-slide" has to be smaller than "slide", not the other way around.
Quality is very good because same as you I usually get the "bubble" somewhere and waste at least 1 protector before it is perfect, but this one seems thicker than the "glare one" and it attached itself almost perfectly right away, I only had to push it tighter at one corner. The cuts are well made, not sharp edges like it was in some other screen protectors but feels kinda polished. Actually I should say the quality is excellent, reminds me of the first Mitsubishi s.p. for laptop screen I bought years ago in Japan. If only it was the right size...
here is the website if you want wholesale quantity (I don't know does 1 dozen qualifies but you can try):

Sure thing!
in the future "anti-glare" are the only ones I'll ever buy... you and strapped365 were absolutely correct, thx!
edit:
==============================
MY CONCLUSION
(after a week+ with this screen protector)
With standard "shiny" s.p. (or without any s.p.) you can NOT see the screen outdoors in the sun.
Here is a picture of my MT4GS' screen with "antiglare" s.p. in very bright sun:
Until I have received this anti-glare s.p. I was skeptical (read the thread if you're curious) but once I have use it I love it so much that in the future I will never buy any other type of s.p.!
The screen is now not only readable in the direct sunlight, but exactly as guys above said so:
due to it's texture it is somewhat smudge-hiding
(edit: NO it is not really "smudgeless", if you look at certain angle and light you will see the finger smudges, but even then they're not as bad as on any other type of s.p.)
The only drawback are the colors: at first (when you apply this s.p.) it feels dull and washed a bit - not much, but you can see the difference. However, after very short time I get used to it and feels normal now.
Anyone looking for s.p. replacement should go with an antiglare type.
The benefits (ability to see screen under any conditions and it's "smudge-concealment") greatly outweight the cons (somewhat less-vibrant colors)

They weren't as of about 3 months ago. Suuuuuuuucked. Might as well be putting car window tinting on it.

Hmm... so does anyone have a suggestion for a nice anti-glare screen protector that will fit the phone nicely?

I just got the cheapest matte 6 pack or whatever on eBay from "Top Sellers" in N America.

Completely agree with the conclusion. Got 3 from Amazon for about $2.49 at the time.
http://www.amazon.com/EMPIRE-Anti-G...=mytouch+4g+slide+anti-glare+screen+protector
Random brand called "Empire". Despite the one review. IT's a solid screen protector. Technically all Anti-Glare's have a "matte" kind of feel to it. The feeling and the look of the screen would probably be the most attractive part of Anti-Glares. However yes there is the sacrifice of losing slight visual quality.

Thanks, I'll give those Empire anti-glares a shot
Edit: nvm, shipping to Canada is STEEP on those guys. I'll keep a lookout for other anti-glares. Thanks for the suggestion, though

Yeah, sorry about that.
The Amazon one would definitely cover the edge screen but eBay one doesn't. There are others on ebay that cover the entire screen.

I bought the Skinomi Skintech from Amazon (about $10 shipped) and it shipped today. Hoping to get it on Monday so that I can put it on my Note Edge when it arrives on Monday as well. According to Skinomi, their screen protector will be covering the whole front screen of the Edge.

Your right it doesnt say. I email the seller and he said it should fit 99% edge to edge since no protector can cover 100%
Also doing a 1:1of the picture and the old protectors i return it is wider and looks like it will fit.
They should be here by friday so i will know then. I dont like the other protectors since they feel all gummy and there arent any glass ones out.
Ill let you know tho.

Just got this one and put it on.
It feels a little gummy but not as bad as I thought it would feel.
On a side note, I tried a bunch of different protectors so far, and the Konami is the one that fits and sticks the best on the ENTIRE screen.
The ones with no solution I have tried DO NOT stick very well on the curve screen.

Thanks. I have done some search.on the brand you use for other phone. Some review said this protector is very difficult to install, need spray and at least one hour careful work to put it on. And need time for bubble to go away. And it is not as clear as normal HD protector. I am not sure how is yours,maybe the one you get for edge is normal material and normal install?

Took me about 3 minutes to put on.
Follow the directions and spray your hands with the solution.
YES you do need time for the bubble to go away. The instructions recommend not using the phone for 4 to 5 hours which i did. The protector
needs time to adhere to the glass.
To me it looks as clear as any normal HD protector I have ever used.

I see. It is good to know the detail feedback. I may go for a try.
I guess for edge screen, non of any normal material protector can work good. Only the that kind of material you bought need water to install and very thing can stick and stay.

[REVIEW] Moshi iVisor Glass

Right, first of all, I had been waiting for a UK supplier of this product for aaaaages!
Finally MobileFun started stocking it.
As everyone knows, tempered glass protectors are for the most part, a problem for the Note 4 due to the curved edges.
I had been using one that just cover the viewing area, which looked hideous IMO.
So when I first saw iVisor and it's total, no halo coverage, I knew I needed to try it out, despite the high price of £30! (yeah, I thought I was crazy too)
In terms of packaging, there's not much to report, it's... A box [emoji23]
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
In the box you get a cloth and suction cup to help with the installation, but I've installed so many glass protectors I didn't find it necessary to use the cup.
As you can see, this thing covers the "whole" front of the screen.
Installation of the iVisor was, in my opinion, the easiest of all the protectors I've installed.
Having the coloured edge, allows you to line everything up far easier, than a totally transparent one.
After installation and now it's been on a couple of days, I can give informed verdict on this protector.... And that verdict is, it's nothing short of amazing!
Despite the high price, in my opinion it is well worth the money, not only is it one of the thinest glass protectors I've ever come across, the clarity is phenomenal! Not to mention, the feel of thing is just like the naked glass.
I thought the ones I used in the past were good, obviously better than the PTE type, but this is a next level up.
Not forgetting THE reason I got this in the first place, which is a halo free viewing experience, which this delivers impeccably.
Yes, it is expensive, but if you're after a tempered glass protector, this has got to be the best one for the Note 4. Definitely a 10/10 from me, and if you can stomach the cost, the only one to get.

Nice thanks for sharing, is it because it has a dark border that the halo effect cannot be seen?

I'm using it as well and agree it is hands down the best one for this phone.

I disagree. Don't like the holes on the glass. Much prefer the Arcadia glass.

It's all peaches & cream until the thin adhesive sides pop loose and tons of junk end up under the screen. Also a lot of cases will cause this protector to bow up in the middle and the screen will become unresponsive as there is no adhesive under the actual display area. Been there, done that.
Anyhow, nice review and good luck with the Moshi.

I think it depends on the case, I'm using using Spigen Neo hybrid and I think it's a case of it being a mixture of luck and the way it's made, that I've managed to get it that spot on, that the case doesn't touch it, or at the very least is flush.

I think that does play a part, but I don't think it's totally because of that, because I've had others that halo way before the edge of the actual display, let alone the edge of the phone.

They're not holes, as in "holes", they're sections that don't have the coloured border to let the button LEDs shine through.
Trouble is getting hold of others, I tried getting all sorts but found it surprisingly difficult getting anyone to ship to the UK, including the suppliers themselves.

Can i clean the moshi glass?

Looks like it will be the same price as the BodyGuardz Crown (coming the end of April for Note 4). Both look like they offer great protection. Because of the aluminum bezel, the Crown will have zero lift around the edges. Is there any lift at all with the iVisor? I think that would be a deal breaker if it does.

You mean the adhesive side? Probably, but I wouldn't recommend it, why would you want to remove it unless it cracked of course, but then you'd replace it?

I have a similar one arriving today. It's a Cailifu and is sold on Amazon. I will let you guys know how it looks and holds up. Here's the link to check it out:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00PXP38BA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I have been using the Cailifu glass protector for about a day now. Overall, i think it's a winner. The only negative thing I could find is, it's a smudge and fingerprint magnet. Not sure it it's the material used or some kind of coating, but I have to clean the screen far more frequently than normal. The screen coverage is perfect with no gaps or lifting around the edges. For the price (75% less than the iVisor), it's a go.
BTW, the "windows" for the capacitive buttons are square. The iVisor has round windows. The square windows give it a more stock look than the round ones. Hope this comparison helps.

Having used this for a few weeks now, would you still recommend the Moshi? I've read some comments online about their iPhone protectors having an 'oil slick' effect in the centre of the screen and a 'dot pattern' that permanently marked the screen - have you noticed anything like this? I didn't see any such problems evident in your photo.
Also be very interested to know how S-Pen usage is with this. Does the S-Pen still operate the back button OK?

REAR Glass Tempered Glass Screen Protectors

So, with fantastic support from folks like @intelliARMOR here on XDA, perhaps we can get them to start looking at Tempered Glass Screen Protectors (TGSP's) for the REAR glass on the Nexus 6P.
I'll get some emails out to Skinomi and others to see if they would be interested in making one, while gorilla glass 4 is great and all, I'm sure some of the rest of you are as concerned as I am about the back glass, if not more so (always setting it down on the back).
Anyone else seen anything? I can get a list going of who's been contacted and replies, just give me a link and a name, or let me know you contacted them and their reply when they do.
@intelliARMOR - Responded here - in the works!.
Skinomi - Contacted, awaiting reply.

Of course I'm referring to the only piece of gorilla glass on the rear. LOL
Glad to see others are interested. Should be easy, and cheap. I don't even think they'd need to make holes, do they? if so, just the one for the camera, one for the flash, and one for the auto focus, if not one for both of the latter together.

Holes would be required for those. The protectors would refract the laser, focus, camera

Figures, still, it would be much more protected with the holes cut out than nothing.
Hopefully someone takes this up.

Did that really need to be explained?

I'd buy a combo pack (front + rear) over just a front glass protector.

Most cases (dare I even say all) won't support a TGS on there. And if you don't use a case then I don't quite see the point of protecting that part but not the back... unless you're just interested in protecting it from scratches using a skin or something... or it could just be me.... lol

Elnrik said:

yeah of course it did. it's a very odd request. as mentioned, it would cause issues with the camera, and the area's so small that i'd doubt there would ever be a market for such an item. i've never actually seen a request for tempered glass protection for a 40mm strip of glass. secondly, as there are other devices which in fact do have proper glass backs, i thought maybe he was confused. so yes, it really did need to be explained, and, given the explanation, i'm still not certain he understands the ramifications of what he's asking for. it would with 100% certainty detract from the usability of the device. if you're that concerned about it, get a nice bumper case and be done with it. anyway, good luck to you op with your quest

The edges of the "visor" also curve back toward the front of the phone, don't they? So it'll be annoying just like the 2.5D TGSP on iPhones and stuff...

This is a little anal retentive. The only reason to protect the back glass is to keep the camera, flash and laser emitter free of scratches, but you don't want to cover them for performance reasons. The rest is for sensors and even if the glass got scratched it wouldn't affect them.
Also, if you look at the design, it appears that even laying flat on a surface, the glass does not contact the surface. I don't have an actual 6P to check though.

If you don't see the point, it wouldn't be for you then. I do see the point, I drop my phones occasionally, I'd rather have it protected as much as possible than not. A thin TGSP on the back would we fine for me, don't need a super thick one. I use cases, good ones, I just would like the option.
Someone else somewhere mentioned how skins should be made for it, and that's what gave me this idea. Either or even better, both options would be nice to have.

He completely understands the ramifications of what he asked for... that's why he asked. Not that I want the answer, but I don't see how this could 100% detract from the usability of the device. Or even 1% for that matter.
A bumper case? Yeah, that's super protective. I've already got 2 cases waiting and a few more coming. I know there are folks that like to go naked, with just a screen protector, and I know there are others that are going to get the cases with no coverage of the back glass. If it's not for you then fine, it's not for you, but others having the option to get one don't affect your option to NOT.

Wait for it...

Protect the back glass.
Protect it from shatters from falling on the ground, protect it from scratches and scrapes when doing the things you do with phones (taking pictures of your car engine while you work on it, taking pictures of the roof damage from the hailstorm).
I for one like a 100% device when I go to sell them when it is time to move on. My LG G3 is absolutely mint.
Call it anal, thats fine with me.
So great folks, if you aren't interested in one, this thread would not be for you.
