There are two types for $13.99/ea. Both screen protectors are dry installs.
You can choose between front and back protection or just front protection.

If I didn't just order from BSE, I'd be all over these. I'll probably get one eventually though.
I will get a bse. It will be here soon after the phone. I will keep the back on and replace the screen protector with sgp

Should I go with the Ultra Fine or the Ultra Crystal?

Nice. I'm waiting for their bumper cases. If they don't come out before Dec, I'd have to buy them in China. Surprisingly, it's not cheap over there, which means I'm paying more.

That's your call. I tried a Ultra Fine on my One X but because it didn't totally cover the screen I didn't like it. It was too visible, you could instantly tell I had a screen protector on it. I haven't tried UC, but I'm wary of it because I hate finger prints. I may just try UF again and hope that it fits better on the N4 than it did on the One X.
ann i will stay with non screen protector for now, i think that gg 2 will do the work for me wint no screen protector
Almost preordered one but unsure now due to the curved glass of Nexus 4. From the other screen protector thread, Spigen offers Galaxy S3 screen protectors for curved glass. Not sure if it makes a difference or if the preorder ones for Nexus 4 fit already.
Sent an email to Spigen..

Just pre-ordered the UC screen protector. Not a fan of the anti-glare stuff. I find it makes the screen not as nice afterwards and crystal keeps it awesome.
Someone email them about the back!

I personally like the Ultra Fine over the Ultra Crystal. Fairs much better under direct sunlight imo
Grrrrrr.....I wish they would have included a back glass protector as well.....
As previously mentioned, we need back protection too. It would be awesome if they release their GLAS-series protectors for the Nexus 4, they're made out of glass
If it follows suit like the SGP for the One X or S3, you need to get a wet application or Curved Cystal to cover the entire screen due to the curved/rounded edges. If you look at the "Screen Protector Type" on the SGP page it does show it as covering just the viewable screen not edge-to-edge and it's noted as "screen protector type".
I use the Ultra Oleophobic on my One X's and it covers just the viewable screen area, so you don't notice it really with the screen on but do when it's off. Since it's not edge-to-edge then you run the risk of scratches outside the screen protector area.
Read the description for the "Curved Crystal" for the S3 and it notes that it is "full display coverage": http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/sa...creen-protector-steinheil-curved-crystal.html . I use the CC on my S3 and it is excellent and really is about as close as edge-to-edge coverage as you could ask for. Almost invisible and feels almost as good as a naked screen.
I prefer the "Crystal" versions as they feel more like glass and are remarkably clear.
Not a fan of this expensive and easily scratched protectors.
Bought an ultra oleophobic one for my Sony Xperia S. Scratched in one week.
According to sgp, the ultra oleophobic one is actually hard to scratch.

I bought some $6 screen protectors off eBay for $7.00... I'll just wait to see some reviews on which protector I should actually invest in.

I'm more inclined to get a pouch. Without LCD protector.

You'll still need to watch out for dust! I'm thinking about going pouch + screen protector. This phone is too attractive for a case, and I never drop my devices.
That's what I'm doing, pouch + screen protector. I'm worried not about my keyes scratching the screen, but sand. Sand is the killer for screens like the Nexus 4.

i emailed spigen about a back protector and a curved screen protector for the nexus 4.
everyone email them about it!!!!
curved crystal + crystal back = WIN!
i'm still debating bumper or just a wet skin for the edges of the phone.
i'm hoping the bumper is VERY minimalistic.
I am looking for a case similar to the Otterbox Defender with a built in screen protector and full body enclosing for a phone.This phone is made of glass as the body and I want to protect it well. If there are any cases that protect the back really well, I am open for discussion. I just need recommendations.
Get a BSE skin protector bumper optimized and a MYBAT tuff hybrid case from eBay, been using both for months now
"would?"

There are currently no cases with built-in screen protectors on the market. I use the Ballistic Shell Gel case and I have to say, it works amazingly. No scratching and it keeps my screen from touching anything on a solid surface because of the beefed-up corners.

I have the cruzerlite tpu case and love it so far. Does anyone know for sure if any of the tempered glass screen protectors work with the nexus 4 in this particular case?

I personally use a screen protector because it´s easier to switch a $2 screen protector than the complete screen. Also i keep my phone in my pocket with an additional tpu case

Im using a very thin and crystal clear SP that you almost can not notice that there is SP installed.
I forgot the brand but it cost me less than $15
My beloved galaxy SL i9003 still scratchless and I never use SP on it.
i don't use any screen protectors for any phone. I just love the feeling that my finger direct touch the screen without any protector My phone have no scratches so far, but I can't guarantee that in the future.
The glass screen is very hard and our finger/nagel/keys cannot hurt it at all, don't worry about it.
Only one thing in our all day life which harder than the glass is the sand, we can't protect our phone from sand completly, it exist on the ground everywhere, but if you don't fall your phone to the ground (and very unlucky with the screen down), the screen has very few chance to be scratched with the sand.
No screen protector, no scratches. Just exercise some caution and your screen will remain perfect
I have a couple of tiny spots and really thin scratches that can be seen when viewing at a specific angle. No screen protector, ever.
Use a glass screen protector. Dropped my phone and the glass took the scratch rather than the screen so worth it for the sake of keeping screen in tact.
im using a cheap plastic from nowheres-ville and its not scratched not even thw plastic itself

Got me a gold tempered glass screen protector. It cost around $20Aud and was easy to apply. Fits well, is glass so noplasticy feel to the screen and everything registers well with screen touches.
If the sand scratches the screen, no biggie as it can be removed pretty easily.
Also came with a 2 home button extender sticker so that was no problem either...
Spigen GlasT.r here, $40 locally.
Best investment for my S4. Together with the neo hybrid it just looks awesome.
The glast.r is smoother and better than the original gorilla glass 3.

First phone that I'm not using a screen protector. And I love it. I'll never put a screen protector again

I generally use a screen protector on all of my high end devices. On my i9505, I've currently only have my otterbox defender screen protector on but eventually I'll prolly move onto a spigen glas.t nano slim when I'm ready.

I use a screen protector now. I've had a few phones in the past that have gotten scratched because they weren't protected. So to 3 phones later I finnaly smartened up.

I have used Spigen Ultra Crystal and now Spigen Oleophobic one. Need to replace now but couldn't find oleophobic on spigen.
Pls suggest a good option for smooth & Non-Fingerprint screen protector.
