Is anyone going to get SGP's Screen Protector GLAS.tR SLIM?

http://www.spigen.com/galaxy-s4-screen-protector-glas-tr-slim-premium-tempered-glass.html
Hope someone can test it. I'd like to get it but it caused all sorts of problems on Xperia Z. As S4 has a ton of sensors I wonder how it's going to cope.

I'm running a SGP Ultra Fit and the Ultra Crystal at the moment, although I'm going to get a glas.Tr in the next couple of months when reviews are out; out of my experience with the glass protector on my Galaxy SII, it worked as advertised with the main problem being the unresponsiveness to cold fingers (e.g. Winter in Europe), which made me go for the Ultra Crystal. But since the new glas.Tr is slimmer and the screen of the S4 much more sensitive (gloves, Air View), I'm willing to give it a second try.

I have one installed on my S4, have to say that these are hands down the best feeling screen protector Ive used. I was a long time fan of the Invisible Shield HD for several devices before this one. My installation was not perfect, however. I have two tiny specs of dust presumably under the protector but not worth taking off and sending back for the replacement.

I don't yet have my S4, but nevertheless I have ordered both the glas.tr screen protector and the ultra slim shell.
There was a somewhat decent YouTube video that showed the glas.tr on an iPhone 5. What was important for me is that this protector has the adhesive across the entire screen and not like the S3 versions where it was limited to only the edges.
"So what you want me to do 'bout that?"

I have had mine on for 2 days now and I love it! Its case friendly and fits awesome. Also I had to take it off because of dust like 5 times and some packing tape took it right off the protector and went right back on! Now the tr slim is 38 I think vs the 25 for just the slim and the slim is I think about half as slim as the tr slim. So I'm not sure what I would have liked better. The rounded edges feel great. I can handle my phone and everything feels so smooth but if the slim is super thin, maybe I would have liked that more. Either way its just like having a screen on a screen. No touch issues or brightness problems at all. I'm almost sad that its meant to be thrown away once it took its fall for you! 5 stars. But I will be ordering a metal home button. Even the curved cutout for the home button still makes it too deep to press comfortably.

my application for the glas.tR is 99% perfect except for the bottom right corner just at the edge of it where there is one tiny speck of dust trapped.....but no point taking it off and ruining the adhesive..
mini glas.tR review: freaking smooth to touch, oleophobic coating does its job and ensures it aint a fingerprint magnet. easily wiped off when there are fingerprints.
nothing beats the feeling of glass....and the clarity is top notch...pretty damn worth it in my opinion.
Application tip: if you are applying yourself make sure you are in a dust free environment, for me i did it in my shower after a warm bath (the steam traps dust in the air and makes the evironment relatively dust free)

thanks for the photo semajm. I'm looking forward to getting the glas for my coming s4, especially now that they do a full screen adhesive.
Is the Tr (curved edges) worth the extra cost, compared to the "t"?

I see the one you have pictured is orange, and the one on the website which is blue, I'm just wondering exactly what the difference is, if you know?

glas.tR, the "T" stand for tempered and the "R" stands for rounded
the blue one is 0.28mm making it thinner.
the orange one is 0.4mm with the rounded edges. some users say it might fit cases better than the blue one. additionally, spigen says the rounded edges make it anti-chip

I'm really torn between the GLAS.tR SLIM and the Bodyguardz Pure. I know for a fact that the latter does not have rounded edges but I've heard some stating the oleophobic coating on the Pure is slightly better than the GLAS.tR, anyone have any opinions or have had both?

Did you put the little jelly bean sticker over your home button? Makes the button raised up like it should be, works pretty well actually.

im waiting for the aluminum ones to be available....the jelly beans totally make it cartoonish

So.. do the sensors work? Airview for example.

yup, if u look the sensors are not even covered. the one covered is the front facing camera and it still works beautifully

is this glas stuff work with the neo hybrid case

spigen says yes, it works with the neo hybrid case. im waiting for mine to come in

Anyone have one that can confirm it fits with a tight fitting case?

I have a glass .tr that I will be trying with the Rearth slim case. I dont anticipate it being an issue but will report nonetheless. I am thinking of getting the Neo hybrid soon though and am wondering if using those two together will cause the protector to push up.

Note 4 cases scratching metal frame!!!!

Ive being using an spigen neo hibrid case for about 7 days.... today I read a post somewhere saying that some cases were scratching the metal frame so I went running to my bedroom, took off the case and ....... is all scratched.
Small scratches but they are there, all around the phone.
Go and check yours and let me know [emoji35]

Many of these cases especially SPIGEN and Ringke scratches your bezel, yes.
Get a Thor.
Note 4 beats your Note 3, just sayin...

I have an Urban armor gear, have removed it already many times, no scratches

I assume it depends if there is any solid plastic scraping against the frame. Luckily on my Slim Armor it's only the soft part of the case that ever touches.

In my case is the same now after think about it I realized that is not the case.
The problem is the particles of dust and sand from the pocket that found the way in and also the aluminium used for the body is really soft and scratchable.
Thats why I wanted plastic body

People have reported scratches with the UAG
It's a design flaw by Samsung. It's bound to happen with the polished aluminum

Okay, well I can only say that I removed the phone about 15 times from the case and I just checked again. No scratches at all.

Fair enough, it just depends on whether stuff gets caught in between the case and phone.

Since the Seidio case did a number on my Note 2, I've tended to stay away from cases that grip using hard plastic. After the Seidio issue I went with a couple cases(one being Otterbox Commuter) that had a rubber inner shell and never had scratching issues after that. This time around, since the Otterbox wasn't out at the time, I went with the Incipio 2 piece case (rubber inner shell with hard plastic outer shell) and so far so good.

we wanted a metal better looking frame and they gave it to us, you can't expect it to be indestructible.
I don't think its the cases, its probably debris that get in between the case and the phone.
I removed my case over 100 times already to swap it, zero scratches.
I been using a Spigen Neo Hybrid and a Spigen Ultra Hybrid Crystal Clear cases, the second has 100s of *scratches* complains.

Polished Aluminium and Hard plastic cases is a bad idea.
Your better off getting a soft Jelly base TPU case.
I got this one for $6 Amazon and put it on and take it off all the time with NO scratches.

This is why I like the Otterbox Commuter.
It has a soft silicone liner that will not scratch the edges of the Note 4.

After you posted that, I had to check and confirmed it did leave a few small scratches on the bezel using Ringke. Oh wells, better than having a scuff bezel from being dropped. I'll probably try out some aluminum polish and see if it would buff it off.

I may be completely wrong but chances are that a small piece of grit or sand or dust has gotten into the case from the front. This in turn then rubs on the metal and causes minor scratches.
I've been using the Spigen neo hybrid and luckily haven't had any scratches. Some people on here have used the same case and have scratches.
It does suck to see minor scratches but would you rather that or a nice big cracking or chip if you dropped it without a case on?

Any time you have a shiny surface that's being constantly handled, it will get scratched eventually. It's a fact of life. Just get over it and enjoy your phone!

THIS! I am sick of people saying cases are scratching their chamfered edges on the Note 4. It's f***** chamfered edges for f***s sakes, they're going to scratch up easily from normal wear and tear regardless of a case, it's inevitable if you actually plan on using your phone like a normal person.

Spigen Capsule for Note 4

I saw this case and seems to be very effective. I don't care about scratches in the chamfered edges as the metal polisher does his job very well. I just don't want to have scratches in the backpart or the painted bezels, and put the phone face down without scratching the screen. Does anyone have this case? Also, I want to know what material is it, TPU? Plastic?

Thanks!

The back part is a grippy tpu material the border is plastic or metal depending on which version you get. This case hasn't scratched my bezels or edges at all and it does have a slight lip to protect the screen when laying on flat surfaces.

Disregard I thought this was the neo hybrid, I don't own the capsule., sorry.

I had one on my Galaxy S5. Its a tpu style case. It had a small lip so you could lay it flat face down with no worries.

I got this case. Like stated above its a tpu case with a grippy back. Does have a lip so u can lay it face down. Adds very little thickness to the phone. Buttons are very responsive i just wish they stuck out a bit. The buttons are flush with rest of the case as shown in the first picture

I have this case as well. It's thin, it's grippy and I haven't noticed it leaving a single mark on the phone yet.
Only downside I can think of is the quite sharp edge surrounding the USB port on the bottom which might make it less comfortable to hold if you hold the phone with your pinky at the bottom.
Overall I think it's a great case

Had this case on for 3 days before noticing scratching on the sides. Haven't used it since.

Its TPU and will not scratch the sides, my wife and i have this case and it has not scratch the sides. My Wife throws her phone around and this case does protect it. It is a pity there is no white case

I also have the Spigen "Neo Hybrid" case. Fits well, buttons are very responsive, no complains. I just would like it to be thinner but given the fact that this case was the only one I could find in Uruguay for my Note 4 I can't complain at all.
I recommend it.
Regards.

I have this case, I got it mainly because I loved the Bounce case for my note 3.
I really like it it's thicker than that normal tpu and feels good in the hand. It covers everything minus the screen and the cutouts are right. I think it's worth the 10.00 price tag, it's not as thick as the bounce case, but it still works well.

For a case that fits and protects, and is aesthetically suiting, I'd agree that $10 is very reasonable.

the buttons might get annoying.. i had the spigen with kickstand and the buttons annoyed the hell out of me. for a simple tpu case, i always go with diztronic.
also.. WTF spigen?? really auto focus embossing?

Don't buy this case, I was dumb enough not to read the reviews on amazon before purchasing it off of eBay! The case scratches the beveled shiny edges of the note 4, if you don't believe me check amazon for yourself.

nice try but its TPU it does not scratch the case, i have 3 of these and not a single scratch on either note 4 phone.
If this case scratches the sides so do all the other spigens with tpu inside. The only one that does scratch is the hardened plastic thin one (which i also have as well).

This is a comparison even though it wasn't specifically asked for. The Capsule case was my first purchase for the Note 4 because I liked the look, but it only led to dissappointment for me. Thus my reason for the comparison.
Spigen Capsule case:
Cons:
It is a loose fitting case compared to some of the others I prefer. Allows sand and dust in between the case and the phone which then causes the scratching that everyone talks about. Desert evironments are particularly bad.
It is a sharp case (it won't cut you, but it can be uncomfortable) at the bottom near the usb port and along the edges.
The button coverings are mediocre at best. They make button pressing less appealing especially for the volume.
Pros:
The case is fairly attractive for a TPU case (more so in pictures than in person).
The case has decent grip
Slim case
Samsung's Protective cover is the same size and profile:
Cons:
Not the most grippy case, but adequate.
Pro's
Slim case
Tight fit on the phone. Little room for particles to get trapped between the bezel and the case.
No sharp edges.
Does not collect grime and oil smudges like most cases. I literally never have to wipe it down.
Best looking TPU case I have seen for the Note 4.
Button coverings are clicky and feel great
Capsule pics
Protective Cover pics

I have read a lot of good reviews on the Samsung Protective Cover. It seems like you really can't go wrong with that one.
I have the Neo Hybrid Metal version which looks very similar to the capsule. My case has been on for 30+ days and I removed it to look for scratches. Nothing. Looked great. It looked just as great as the day I put it on. I think the scratching may occur when dust/debris gets between the phone and the case. I am very anal about cleaning every surface before I put the case on.
Also I have a at&t note. Read carefully it seems verizon and sprint variants moved one of the microphone holes. A lot of people are drilling new holes to uncover the relocated microphone...

will this case stand on its side and bottom on its own?

Accessories Accessories!!!

Dissappointed did not get the free clear case. My 6T until last day I shipped it for trade in used the free included case. Worked great, I really liked it, tried bunch from Amazon and just liked the free stock one.
I am using the Spigen hybrid case on OP9.
- fits well. But the interior is a dust magnet. Almost feels sticky, hard to clean off the dust and fingerprints.
- the exterior is a horrible mess of fingerprints!!
Pulen glass protector
- thick... too thick. Front does have cut out for camera. Clear, applied well. Not a fingerprint mess. Fits well with cases.
- the rear camera protector even thicker. It also cover the lense. Does not have cut outs for the lenses. I removed cause probably adds distortion. Did not do any scientific methods to test hypothesis.
Pulen clear case with floral print
- loose fit. Slips off easily, terrible
- the sides do not have a lip to cover and provide screen protection.
- returned back to Amazon.
- DO NOT BUY
Cresee silicone case
- It has a soft texture to it, really pleasant feel
- Fits the phone well, buttons feel great
- Great case for $10
Qitayo clear thin case
- Terrible buttons. The buttons are not recessed so they fit over the buttons, they sit right on top so it's really easy to click then. I can only imagine what a disaster it would be with the phone in the pocket.
- DO NOT BUY
Orzero Premium Tempered Glass x3
- Easy to apply, the case to assist proper alignment of glass was useful.
- No issues with touch sensitivity or fingerprint
- Would recommend over Pulen.
If anyone finds glass that is thinner than 0.3mm please let me know

For sound.
Love that BT connections show battery levels for each ear piece and case. This from mpow X6 and the OnePlus Budz.
Being able to switch audio output from volume rocker. I don't remember doing this on the 6T, OnePlus dragging feet on Android 11 update for that.
I still have dongle from 6T. Senn Hd58x, AT R70x and A990z all sound great.
For gym, mpow x6 seems best. For shopping and wandering around I prefer the Budz. Their call quality seems better to people I called.

Thanks for your input!
I'm using a spigen tough armor. Sturdy, well built, perfect fit, nice little kickstand, very good protection.
It does add quite a bit of bulk though. The buttons are flush with the case so it's not immediately obvious where they are, but you get used to it really fast of course. The kickstand is also flush with the case, which is nice.
I had a spigen slim armor on my previous phone, and this tough armor offers more protection, with a raised lip all around the screen. Given the choice, I'd prefer a little less bulk than this.
Wireless charging works just fine with this case.

So, I used the Pulen glass protector on her phone. But when I did, when I went to remove the default screen protector, I actually took off the glass from my phone and not hers, oops.
Bought Orzero.

So it comes with three, a case to help apply the glass, the usual alcohol swap, wipes and dost remover and glass sticker assists to help place the glass.
Result, the frame case worked great, it's the same dimensions as most cases. Was easy to align the camera cutout and ensure a proper fit. It's clear, smooth, the 2.5D edges are fine. Oleophobic coating is as good as I've used in the past. I have no problems with touch sensitivity or finger print reader. I think it's actually better than the Pulen.
Verdict: It's $8, comes with 3 glasses, with three sets of alcohol swab, cleaner, dust cleaners. The case is helpful. I'd recommend it.
And no I'm not testing how well it works for screen protection, I've used enough of these over the past, they are all the same. The only difference is ease of use or quality.
Between Pulen or Orzero, I recommend Orzero. Pulen is fine as well

Anccer case on Amazon is nice and thin. A glass screen protector is just barely recessed on the lip however. The worst is that it's a fingerprint magnet like no other.

I got Spigen glass and I´m really dissapointed with it.
Terrible response and lots of phamton touches over the screen.

Accessories this far:
Spigen Tough Armor
UniqueMe TGSP (which I swear by)
and today I got a dual sim tray for my
North American OP9. of course on AA firmware, I didn't get service in the second sim slot. But we'll figure that one out eventually.
Also Dbrand Skin.

I'm using Gadgetshieldz skins on my One Plus 9 for 2 months and it fits very well from edge to edge, I get scratches rarely but it protects the back of my phone from getting damaged.

Question Any cases with raised side edges/bevels?

Although I'm so far quite pleased with the Zagg Gear4 Crystal Palace clear case, which I bought from Verizon at 20% off, several people have commented that it's one of a number of cases whose side (long) edges / bevels are not raised very much, if at all, above screen level and may be below the level of a screen protector. Nevertheless, such cases claim varying drop protection heights. For example, the Crystal Palace, which is made with D30 and D30 Crystalex, claims 13' of drop protection.
Given the greater height of the top and bottom bevels / edges, how much of an issue is the lower side height?
Are there any good quality cases that, without being significantly bulkier, don't have this possible problem?

The only issue will come if you drop it on the edge of a surface, such as a table edge or on an uneven surface. If you drop it on a flat surface, the top and bottom raised edges should protect it.
I imagine any cases that have higher edges would be bulkier.

Super happy with the caseology parallax case. Feels premium, has raised edges and is not that bulky. Also grippy, but not so grippy it won't slide into your pocket.

Where'd you buy it? Can't find any for the pixel 7 pro...

athlex isn't high enough on the sides if that's what you're looking for too. Others have already tried it

Super happy with the caseology parallax case. Feels premium, has raised edges and is not that bulky. Also grippy, but not so grippy it won't slide into your pocket.

The pictures (Official Site) look like the long sides are barely raised, similar to others. What is the real height difference on the long sides? I use the Spigen Tough Armor, but it has the same issue, thanks to the rounded display, I guess Already thinking about a full enclosure box.

I have both the Caseology Athlex and Parallax and neither have the side edges raised enough to be as high as the middle of the display, but that's the way most cases I've seen for curved displays are designed as it's the top and bottom edges that keep the display protected on flat surfaces while the side edges are lower to facilitate swiping. It's hard to tell, but the Parallax may have an ever so slightly higher top and bottom edge than the Athlex.
Both my Spigen Rugged and Tough Armor, as well as my Caseology Parallax for my Pixel 6 Pro were also designed the same way.
Btw, the Athlex is more sturdier, but bulkier and heavier as well.

Oh the joy of curved screens...just another reason they need to GO FOR GOOD!!!!!!!!!!

I bought the
Case-Mate Tough Clear Case directly from the Google shop with the phone together, I need to say it is really good ​

Lip height?

Athlex delivered. Not satisfied with the protection offered to the screen so I'm going to return it. I have a transparent case I paid £7 for a week back which is better.

When you turn the screen sideways, are the sides of the protector higher than the screen? I don't mean in the corners, actually along the edge of the screen each side?

I found the Athlex too bulky and too grippy. Going with Spigen Thin Fit for now. Whitestone Dome coming tomorrow, I think the Thin Fit will work with it.

Yes but not as much as the corners.

Just a bit would be nice. Every protector I've tried so far is below the curve of the screen as can be seen with my current one attached.
Can you take a similar photo if possible before I order it? And to confirm it's the Tauri?

As expensive as they are, I've been using OtterBox cases now for a few years. That combined with tempered glass screen protectors prevents my screen from cracking or getting damaged. I had dropped prior phones several times on a sidewalk and because there was a small rock, the TPU screen protector and the screen both got cracked. That was before I switched to OtterBox
