ZAGG InvisibleShield - Note Edge Accessories

I noticed the InvisibleShield is now listed on the AT&T website but I am unable to find any other information about it. Anyone else know if it will cover the 'edge' portion of the screen? I assume tempered glass will be out of the question due to the curved portion of the screen so I'm trying to find an alternative.

It seems like it would, but also unsure. I do know they have them in stock at local att stores. But with a big price tag off $30 I wouldn't want it to not fit. I do believe att has a 14day return on items.

The shield covers the entire screen edge to edge it's cut very accurately too. It's a dry install so it's a little tricky to get on but it looks and feels great. Att is the only place locally I've seen to get any edge accessories right now. Ihave the zagg and flip cover and couldn't be happier with my edge

Sprint stores have this same zagg screen protector as well, btw. Same prices too ($30) and is also on their website.

I dunno about anything from made specifically for the note edge, but the universal invisishield is big enough to cover the lcd portion of the front and its easy to wrap around the edge display. Just gotta cut it a little

The AT&T Invisishield version fits the screen and edge perfectly, and and installs as easy as a flat screen.

I work for at&t, and a lot of those dry application invisi shield are really hard to install. In fact, most reps dont sell them at all. there is a new version though that comes with a yellow "guiding" layer on one side, and those are extremely easy. Im not allowed to open unsold product. Can someone post pics of the content of the screen protector package? or at least explain how it was installed?

It's an excellent screen protector, i have one on my Sprint edge. With it in the case, the rear screen protector is kind of pointless but, I guess you can never have too much protection.

Glass Screen Protectors

I figured that there would not be any glass screen protectors made for the Note Edge since it would be too difficult for manufacturers to produce.
However, I'm constantly searching the web in the hopes that some company does produce it. To my surprise, I found the following website(looks to be out of stock), but supposedly they are creating one:
http://www.techarmor.com/tech-armor...earest-screen-protector-retail-packaging.html
Let's help each other out and place any links for other Glass Protectors for the Note Edge that may come along in the future.
I have a feeling any glass screen protectors they make will not cover the edge screen
ebay has some
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Anti-Explosion-Tempered-Glass-Film-Screen-Protector-for-Samsung-Note-Edge-/191413851195?pt=US_Cell_Phone_Screen_Protectors&hash=item2c9127943b
but they only cover the front and not the edge.
i doubt there will be any that will cover the edge anytime soon. Its going to be pretty hard to make it fit just right without a space between the screens.
Plastic protectors would have some give to them so it would bend over.

Yea I had a fosman case order before I got the edge. It came in the day before I pick it up in store. I paid $4 on ebay.
I had screen protectors but they didn't cover the edge. So had to order some more.
I never had a glass screen protector before, since I always put a protectors on day one. But I must say I like the glass feel or the device. So I kinda hope they make a full glass protector.

Philly, did the skinomi work? I love bestscreensever but they will not be making any. I used them for years and years. My note 3 still have the original from Oct 2013 and still in great shape.
I have not used it yet ,picked up the nexus 6 yesterday been setting that up, plus very busy with work , however I have both skinomi protectors on my desk I'm hoping I have time later today to install, I'll let you know and post a few pictures as soon as I can..
I bought a universal screen protector from zagg and cut it to fit my note edge. The one I bought is bigger than the entire lcd on the phone and the zagg's don't try to stay flat so it wrapped around the edge display nicely.

I wonder how this will fit.. It's only a few bucks, guess I'll give it a shot, assuming it won't cover the edge, not sure how it will fit like that, but I guess we will find out.
What the he'll J currently unavailable......? Lol. Just teasing I'll give it a shot when it's available currently using the skinomi not bad bubble free you can barely tell it's on, but nothing beats glass
I'm thinking of getting a tempered glass protector for the flat screen and get the clear self healing ones everyone here talks about for the edge portion.
Trace the self healing protector with the the glass one and cut the edge part off the self healing one.
Apply the glass protector and then apply the cutout of the edge.
I tried looking for that glass protector on ebay but now it's gone. Anyone know where I can get more?
I too have the skinomi brand and am impressed with it. I also reviewed it on amazon. It fits perfectly and still has the finger print issue I mentioned on amazon. However I have also noticed a lot of screen errors in the form of inadvertent screen presses and zoom in/out while trying to scroll. Since I have had the screen protector since nearly day one I do not know if this is an issue with the phone itself or the barrier/drag of the skinomi material.
I do like the feel though. It is nearly un-noticeable.

The tech armor glass screen protector "coming soon" status reminds me of the subway just built near my house. when I was in freshman year of college and wife in high school, is when we first saw the "coming soon" sign. That was in 2005. they just finished building it last month and it's still not open for business, lol. That how I feel about this screen protector
I ordered Alien Surface HD front and rear. I'll tell you how good it is.
I wonder if there is an edge to edge screen for this one?
I installed the film on the screen, it fits very well, full size. Great care when installing! I am very satisfied. It remains to be seen how the resistance is.
Instructions must be followed strictly and installation kit helps a lot.

Precision Cut Screen Protector?

Has anyone found and tried any screen protectors that are precision cut for the front and or back? I ordered a couple brands so far from Amazon, and I'm guessing they were earlier cuts before the phone was actually released, because the edges don't go all the way to the edges on both top and bottom. I'm hoping the protectors overtime are more precision cut and edge-to-edge.
Any recommendations?
The screen is rounded on all edges... they will bubble if they went all the way. .. you might not be able to tell with your eye... but it is.

I was thinking that same thing, until I took a look at Dbrand's skin. They have real images of their skin on the back and front of the S6 device. Precision cut, edge to edge. Yup, all the way to the edges. It's beautiful. But, this time around, I actually do like the black sapphire look, so would very much not like to cover it up with a skin.
Seeing Dbrand was able to do it with even a thicker skin, I'd like to assume that a thinner screen protector can do the same.
Take a look at the Dbrand site and the pictures they have up of the S6 with their skin on.
On the video when they pull off the front screen skin part that covers the lcd portion of the screen... there is nothing there... as in the screen is not protected... those are just edge to edge design vinyls... no thank you.

I should be more specific. I didn't link to the Dbrand site to show a skin that has no screen protection. That's quite obvious. What I'm talking about is a product that wraps over the edge, which you're saying is not possible. I'm saying, that if Dbrand can get the edge of their thick ass vinyls to curve slightly over the S6's edge, then a company that does make screen protectors should be able to get their thinner more malleable screen protectors to do so as well.
I don't care about the vinyls, I simply am referring to the product as an example of one company that is able to make it work. So I'm simply asking if anyone else has yet purchased a screen protector that covers edge to edge. Not stopping short like pre-manufactured screen protectors are thus far.

I used Zagg back when I had the Nexus 4, which had more significantly curved edges on its screen, but the Zagg formed perfectly with zero lift and zero bubbles. It was a wet install, so that may have helped. The S6's edges are not as curved as the Nexus 4 was, so I'm hopeful for some edge to edge protection. Quite possibly it was user error in your case (Best Buy)? Did you install it, or did they?

Nah i paid the $10 for bestbuy to do it cause i wanted it done ("Professionally") instead of me screwing up x20 times....and everytime he put it on I wasnt happy with it and neither was he... I actually let it sit a day and brought it back and said , forget it Im not happy with it...so I went to the source and got a $20 HD clear protector and its been great! but it doesn't go all the way to the top or bottom..but I am happy with it.
This one is perfect. Front and back have perfect cuts. There's a plastic and a glass one that you can choose from.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S6 screen and rear protectors that cover edge-to-edge?

Hi guys,
Just got an S6 recently and really don't want to put a case on it, so I thought I'd use screen protectors instead. However, I've yet to come across any that cover the entirety of the front or back glass. Has anyone found any like this that they can recommend? I understand that the glass curves slightly at the edges, which makes it difficult, but I've seen iPhone 6 protectors that specifically say that they curve at the edges, and hoped that someone had done something similar for the S6.
Thanks folks!
I don't use anything but Moshi edge-to-edge tempered glass protectors for my iPhone 6, Note Edge, and now S6. They're a little costly but they're good stuff. In the US, they can be purchased at AT&T corporate stores. As far as the back, I use an inexpensive Skinomi back protector. It gives the slippery phone a lot of grip.

I use Nillikin protectors. They go edge to edge and they are very cheap if you are in the US. I'm currently on my third one because I thought the first one was incorrectly placed and my second I thought it was causing my Incipio OffGrid to not stay closed when I just had a defective case.
I will provide a link later on or you can search on Amazon.

Any tempered glass screen protector recommendations?

Hey all,
I've used one on my note 4 since day 1 and its been the best investment. Not a single scratch on my pretty and its unnoticeable. So far on amazon I see a bunch of small brands marketing theirs. Wanted to know if anyone had an experience with Sparin, ijoy etc. Maybe the consensus is to wait for Spigen, Steinheil and others to come with theirs? Please chime in.

Nothing has worked very well on the s7 edge. I gave up after dumping about 200$ into different brands.

There are really no good curved ones for the S7 Edge except one from China and that one seems to break very easily. Doubt it will be different for the note 7. I'll either go with a flat tempered glass that only protects the flat part of the screen or the IQ liquid shield. The IQ shield that I have on my S7E is okay but nowhere near as nice as a tempered glass protector.
I'm not sure if it was a Gorilla Glass 5 sample, but I swear I saw a Samsung branded tempered glass on a YouTube video (the ones made by the reviewers) from the day of the presentation.
Give a look when the camera rolls over the accessories on the tables on stage.
I'll check it out...thanks. if I can get a glass one I will have to rotate a bunch of skinomis and Chuck em at the orange peel phase.

I ordered that one since I use their tempered screen on my Samsung Tab S2 and have had no issues so far.
I have a follow up question on this... based on the S7 edge screen protector discussion it seems that even if a protector works it doesn't work with cases. Has anyone tried modifying the case like shaving off a little bit so it fits the screen protector? I have been wondering if that could be a way to make it work.

Yeap, I experienced this when I bought the S6 Edge and returned it due to no tempered glass working perfectly with the Edge to Edge display. I'm hoping things improved since the curve display has been out for a while and this has a slight curve to it.
I've always used tempered glass protectors since my S4. my dad has an S6 Edge and I bought a few different tempered glass protectors and they do not work properly at all. They usually all have an "edge" adhesive. Just a strip of glue around the edge of the device instead of the whole screen like flat screen devices.
For this phone I bought the Skinomi note 7 protector.

That's a shame. I bought the Skinomi HD Clear protector as well. Bummer that no one has risen to the occasion yet. I'd be willing to fork over $50 for a proper protector to not have to worry about what I mate my phone with in my pocket.

If they don't work I am sending them it back for my money back. I think worse case I use the one without curves. I think the note 7 curves are at more of an angle so maybe it will not be that bad with the flat glass.

It made it hard to swipe from the edge for the edge apps. I guess not a complete deal breaker, but I would rather just go with a full coverage wet application.

Scratches? Screen Protection?

I've always used a tempered glass on phones... no matter how much I take care the glass always seems to get micro-scratches which drive me up the wall....
I take really good care of my phones, I don't even use a case on most phones and have never dropped or broken a phone.
My question goes out to the guys who have S7e, N7, anything with a curvature really.. how do you protect the screen? Do you need to?
Do you find that the screen itself is scratch resistant enough? More so than tempered glass protectors?
I know there are form fit protectors now, but I read a LOT of bad reviews about them. I'm worried about buying the S8+ because of the super curvy edges.
Usually screen protectors don't work very well with curved screen, as you might know.
JerryRigEverything made a video about it being super easy to scratch, but he made an error and used wrong type (afaik) and in fact Gorilla Glass 5 was pretty much durable from easy scratches like keys etc.
Am waiting for this to be back in stock. Betting on Otter this time.

I own the S7 Edge and have tried a variety of screen protectors. Glass Ones are difficult to fit, but I have found several that have been adequete. Not perfect but ok. There have also been a few very good plastic screen protectors that worked exceptionally well - Spigen had a CURVED glass screen protector that was excellent and Body Glove also had one that was very good.
I have seen a few on Amazon that look like they are going to be ok - and none of them, even the glass ones are too expensive. You may have to do some trial and error to find the one you like the best, but I am confident you will find something that works. I know I will.
Skinomi wate install protector normally works. The only problem i have is after a few months the edges will get dirty.
They sell some really stickey flim protectors. But those sratch very easy.
I always put a protector on my phones because things can always happen no matter how careful you are.
​
When I got my S7 edge last year I tried a few curved screen protectors and was disappointed with them, eventually they all peeled off. (Reluctantly) I have not used a screen protector since and can honestly say my screen looks as good as day one. When I get my S8+ (Very soon I hope ) I wont be using a screen protector unless something outstanding comes to the market.
I got a tempered glass kit that should be here soon, with a case. I also picked up the Strada series Otterbox, I will likely use the Strada case, as it will fully protect the phone, and still look nice, this way I dont have to worry about micro scratches.
I have owned an edge mobile since the day they where released, I NEVER found a satisfactory solution to protecting the screen with any sort of screen saver and I tried dozens. S6 edge, S6 edge+ Note 7 and S7 edge. Its been hell. I have found some that have been 'okay' until one uses a case then they start to peel off. Some have glue only around the edges and eventually allow micro dust in between the saver and screen. The plastic membrane sort have been an equal nightmare.
If you read the numerous posts on this subject in the various Edge forum here you will soon learn that going without can and will save you a headache. I use a flip case. I used the Samsung LED flip case on both my Note 7's and have pre ordered the same case for the S8+
Those edges are pigs to protect with a saver. The Note 7 Used Samsung own skin and they where still a disaster.
Now the good news. To date and all these years latter never even got a micro scratch on the screen. Having said that if one drops ones mobile.......
I use a flip case and that appears to be the only solution I have found to this situation. BTW even those glass screen savers that only cover the flat part of the screen are not so good as they make such an ugly mess of a beautiful screen, some of them do work though.
I understand the edges on the S8's are the most acute to date so though I can't foresee the future I am still not confident a full screen saver will be found. Lets hope it doesn't prove a problem. I, for one, wont even try and cover the screen, way to much hassle.

I've always used a tempered glass on phones... no matter how much I take care the glass always seems to get micro-scratches which drive me up the wall....
I take really good care of my phones, I don't even use a case on most phones and have never dropped or broken a phone.
My question goes out to the guys who have S7e, N7, anything with a curvature really.. how do you protect the screen? Do you need to?
Do you find that the screen itself is scratch resistant enough? More so than tempered glass protectors?
I know there are form fit protectors now, but I read a LOT of bad reviews about them. I'm worried about buying the S8+ because of the super curvy edges.

I have both the note 7 and s7 edge and have had zero luck with glass protection.
There are several plastic protectors i used which worked fine but i hate the feel so peeled them off.
Running both naked now and no issues.

I bought a 2-pack of the shark proof wipe on liquid. I'll try this this time over a screen protector:

Last time with the gs7 edge, I got my screen protector from Best buy. They use some kind of machine that has exact dimension of the phone and they install it. This was the perfect screen protector , that i ever got. Note it's plastic so, it will feel not so good. This time i'm planning the same thing if best buy offers it.

Skinomi wate install protector normally works. The only problem i have is after a few months the edges will get dirty.
They sell some really stickey flim protectors. But those sratch very easy.
I always put a protector on my phones because things can always happen no matter how careful you are.

I've been using Skinomi for a good while and my edges are pretty clean still (but this is on a flat screened phone). I'm hoping that it stays like that for the S8+ on the curved screen.
The other issue besides fit is how the screen looks with them on. I have never been able to find a plastic protector that doesn't mess with the quality of the screen. It's such a beautiful screen I hate to put something on that messes that up.

Please let us know how that works out; or if it's just expensive snake oil?
The note 7`s gg5 was excellent and as I was returning both I went naked, and they looked perfect after a couple of months of abuse! I do have gg3 on another phone but sadly it hasn't held up so well.
Put it this way on previous phones I've probably spent around £100 or more trying to find a perfect protector.....its cheaper to buy insurance and claim on it than suffer with crappy screen protectors.
