Gorilla Glass? No.

I now have first-hand confirmation that the 4G Slide does not have Gorilla Glass.
As a side note, anybody know if the glass is bonded to the LCD screen?

afaik no its not

so bad news... i knew it wasn't gorilla glass but hoped it was another kind of reinforced glass...
how did it happen?

It was in my shirt pocket wrong, and I bent over to get my dropped keys, it fell out and hit the sidewalk just right.

so not even a fall from too high, sad

I dropped mine from about 5' onto a marble subway platform without a scratch. Maybe I was just very lucky. The back flew off and battery fell out, but put them back on and no problems.

i've never personally had a phone with gorilla glass, but everybody tells me that they have had horrible experiences with it and it seems to be less durable. any thoughts?

I own a galaxy s2 und I have nothing wrong to say about the gorilla glass.
I dropped mine (as others it seems) from my pocket while bending down to grab something.
I got scratches on the frame but Nothing happened to the glass.
I am everything BUT disappointed.

{REVIEW} SGP Spigen Ultra Oleophobic Screen Protector

Hi all just thought i would give a small review on the SGP Spigen Ultra Oleophobic screen protector, to help any one out there make a decision if this would be good or not for them.
Contents
2 screen protectors
1 squegee
1 cloth
So ill go through the main points:
*Price : I paid $19.95 on eBay ( Australian prices ) this for me was not a large price to pay as ive used their products before and i know the quality that comes with them and what you get for your money. (two screen protectors )
*Ease of install : I found it super easy to install ive done it many time before... but if you guys need help this link will help.
*Once its on how does it fit? : fits great with 2 mm clearance around the front ear speaker and camera also it does not go down the sides... i liked the fact that it did not go down the curved sides because on my gs3 the screen protector would lift on the edge and then dirt would get underneath and make it look really bad.
*How does it feel? : the nexus 4 screen is the smoothest screen I have ever touched so naturally when I put the screen protector on that smoothness decreased not by much but I do feel a small grab every now and then when I my hands perspire or get clammy. Ive also noticed a small grab from the edge of the screen protector when swiping from the side ( but this was to be expexted ).
Other then that feel great.
*How does it look ? : clear , no rainbow , no blue tint , and no deformed spots or dust particles stuck in the screen protector as some cheaper once I had found have.
This is also not a matt screen protector so when in the sun it does mirror a little, but not to much more then what it was without the screen protector.
Another note is you do notice the sides of the screen protector because they dont go all the way to the sides but i would rather this then what i mentioned before.
so now for pics

You miss the main point..
how is the oil resisting ability of it?

I have not had any issues with it collecting oil or greese on the screen protector. Sorry sort of missed that part. None issue so I forgot to mention it.

I bought one of these and it was the hardest time I've ever had installing a screen protector. It is just barely wider than the screen so there is no room for error, and once I got it to match up with the screen, it was a little over the edge so it was lifting. I ended up just getting frustrated with it and going naked.

[Q] Screen ungluing??

So, i have an LG G PAD X 10.1 tablet that i bought some time ago.
I noticed that some kind of "glue" spots started appearing on the side of the screen, i will attach the photos on the post.
I have a tempered glass protector on top of the screen, but this glue spots are not from the tempered glass, as i took it out and saw that this spots are still there. Then i put the tempered glass protector again on the screen.
Do you know what would be the cause of this? Maybe the tempered glass protector making too much pressure on the screen?
Is there any way to fix this? The spots dont affect the functioning of the screen, but they are not too kind to see on the edge of the screen.

Your glass and your LCD screen are getting separated.
A repair shop can replace the glass and get rid of that.
It might even be water damage, it's kinda hard to tell by your pics.

You can also try using a blow dryer to heat it up and rub it with your fingers, try different heat settings with the blow dryer, don't want to get it to hot, just warm enough to make it tacky again so it sticks to the glass again. It might work, it might not, its worth trying at least.

Thank you! I will try with the blow dryer then. It isnt water, not even a water drop touched the screen since i got the tablet.

How are your screens holding up?

Asking owners: how are your screens so far? Tell me everything -- are there many scratches, are they visible when the screen is on? Smudges, dust -- is it too irritating? Thanks!

Anyone?

No issues with mine so far.

No issues here but I'm really careful with it.

Thanks! I think I will take the plunge today.

Picked the phone up at the store today. Samsung bundles Z Flip with it's free original Leather Case.

Had mine for a couple of hours when I tried to open it with one hand by sliding my thumb in from the side and flipping up. This left a dent in the screen protector from my thumb nail that was really visible with the screen off. A day later it was still there, I put on a screen protector that is more durable, that original dent is not visible now. I don't know if it self-healed or is just covered by the new protector. As an added bonus the screen protector is less prone to fingerprints and I am not worked to rub it to clean. I will have to be careful if I need to remove the new screen protector so I don't peel off Samsung's.

The manual clearly states not to flip open the phone that way, you can damage the screen. You also voided the warrenty by puting another screen protector on it.

How to remove Hydrogel Film screen protector?

I bought a Hydrogel Film screen protector about a month after receiving my S10+ about two years ago. I wanted to replace it now with a new one that I purchased off aliexpress. Now, I can't seem to remove the Hydrogel film screen protector on my S10+. Not to mention I don't even notice that its even on there anymore. Theres not even a screen protector outline that you would notice on normal screen protectors. DId some google and found that some comment from quora says that the hydrogel film screen protector is embedded to the glass on your phone and nothing to remove?
How did you guys remove it? or are hydrogel film protectors are not removeable at all once applied?

Peel it off. The bond isn't that great.
Should come off in one piece.
Don't scratch the screen be being stupid using a razor blade etc. Fingernails...
70/30 Isopropyl alcohol may help once you get some of it separated or to clean the glass.
Water may work better.

No, there is literally nothing that would indicate there is a hydrogel film protector installed on the phone. It looks like the screen is unprotected. But I know 110% that it was installed because I did it myself. There is nothing to peel off, I have literally tried every corner and edge of the screen and near the speaker. I purchased the screen protector here two years agohttps://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000437704322.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4ds7qHH1

No wet apply is that good...
