I got my edge today! YAY! its beautiful, BUT i had a quick question. on the top of the screen and the metal and the glass, there is a little gap just on the top part of the phone. Is this normal? Thank you in advance.
I looked at my phone a long time after i got it, making sure it wasnt all scratched (like most other non sprint users are experiencing ). Screen was fine, but after i put my speigen case on... i took it off to show a buddy of mine the back of the phone... noticed the case left a scratch on the bezal. Note 4 issue all over again. Ugh.

I was using my Fuze the other day, and was scrolling down a website with the stylus, when all of a sudden the god damn stylus scratched my screen. As you can imagine i was mortified and shocked. A big gash only a week into owning my beautiful new fuze. So i take it in and tell them what happened and they gladly replaced the phone. Nice people! Guess the 30 day period does cover scratches, if by stylus!
thats odd, glad they swapped it for you. was your stylus's point sharper then usual?
So....
It's a good thing to treat your new styli to a bit of emery cloth before you start playing.
Erm... The first thing I did when I got my fuze was throw on that screen protector. Would be foolish if ya didn't do that the second go round.

When you say "that" screen protector. Are you saying they provided one with the FUZE in the box? Or did you buy one separately?
Yes one does come inside the box.
I was applying my invisible shield today and a little bit of the solution got into the earpiece duct, about 10 minutes later my touch screen was no longer functional. I've already returned my phone and getting a new one Saturday. Be careful with your phones guys, a little liquid and its all over.
I love the included screen protector. I've used alot of protectors over the past decade and the stock one holds up better than most (especially for free). I still don't have so much as a blemish on it even with alot of active use and it traveling in my pocket (but no keys). And it's such a good fit that when people check out my phone they tell me that, "You really should get a screen protector before you get any scratches on the glass."
Joke's on them.
I never even looked in the bag with the quick start guide, sure enough a screen protector and another screen protector that comes on the phone with all the warnings on it.
Included protector
Does anyone know the manufacturer of the included protector?
I didn't get mine aligned properly, some dust started peeling it from the corner so I had to ditch it and got an invisible shield, but I liked the included one because until you get use to it, the invible shield takes some getting use to.
Just peel your included screen protector off, wash it with some soapy water, and reapply it to your screen again (while still damp, but not drippy wet). Smooth it out and gently move all the bubbles of water out to the edges of the screen, and voila.
It doesn't specifically use a tacky glue so you can reapply it again and again. I do the same trick on my DS for perfectly clear and aligned protection.
Same trick people that tinted my car windows used for getting the plastic onto glass.

Did you wait 12-24hr before putting the battery back in and powering it up after installing the invisibleshield? Because you are supposed to, to prevent exactly what happened.
Dang It, I need to double check my trash. I had no idea they provided a screen protector. It was in a bag with the quick start guide?

Yep
[filler goes here]
So I just took out my sensation from the box and noticed the stock screen protector was off set and already peeling back a great amount on the top corner. I looked closely and noticed that the small tab at the top of the screen protector is actually inside the ridge of the phone, in that small thin crack where the front-screen ends. That was what cause the screen protector to not lay flat and started bending inward. I slowly peeled the protector back and when it came to the part that was "stuck" or jammed into the crack it took a good tug (I guess it was the adhesive...or it was really in there) for it to pop out. This couldn't have done any damage right? The small crack leads to nothing does it?
Probably just means it got caught in the gap when being fitted. I assume when you say 'crack' you mean the gap where the screen meets the rest of the body of the phone?
Yeah, where the black part ends.
Also, I have removed it and replaced it on more accurately since then and noticed it sticks to the screen very well, even attaching itself to parts that I have not even smoothed my fingers over yet, must be the static? Are there any disadvantages in using this as opposed to buying a new screen protector?
If it works then continue using it. We don't get them pre-fitted in the UK so I bought a 3rd party one

Hello form Poland.
So after 3 weeks of having the flat S7 found a coating failure on my phone.
In clean condition there is no mark or visible surface difference.
Just if there is fog or fingermarks the issue is visible. The problem seems to be comparable to the LG G4 problem with the coating.
Attached some pictures.
What do you think? Complaint relevant?
It looks like even my new S7 is suffering from this. When the phone is cleaned its not visible. But when its smudgy, a consistent diagnol line appears. Its not a scratch, its just there.
Edit: pics added
I have the same problem!

I have the same problem and I'm going to service center
did you come there? what did they tell you? what did they do with phone? how did they fix it?
I have the same issue on my S7 edge.
I have the exact same issue around the speakergrill. When I clean it it's not visible but once you touch it and leave fingerprints you can clearly see it. Not sure if there are other areas on my screen with the same problem as it has a protector but hope that it will be covered by warranty if needed.

I also have that issue around the speakergrill. I noticed it after a call, so I thought it must be because I put it against my ear. After a day or two, I noticed it again. Tried to clean it with water, and as soon as I touched it, it returned. It isn't much of an issue, since it isn't anywhere near the screen, but it is a bit annoying.
Did you eventually return your phone?
thats why I bought a Silver color S7 edge, and bought a screen protector...
I have the issue on the s7 around the speaker grill and in the gap between home and display... had the issue on s6 too (around the speaker grill)..

I've got the same problem on my phone. Annoyingly, the day I got the phone I kept the screen protector on but about 1/3 of it lifted off. I short while later I took it off and then waited till the next day till a screen protector arrived.
Fast forward 3 weeks later and I took the screen protector off and now notice the the wear mark, fine when it is clean but visible when smudged. Just niggles at me more than anything. Am considering sending it back for exchange or something.
Did anyone manage to do this successfully? Or did they just say something like wear and tear?
old thread but I have the same issue too, clean it, it looks perfect, the second i touch it and it leaves a fingerprint, looks like a nice long scratch right above my home button on the screen
Just wanted to say i have the same problem around the speaker grill, for now its not too big. Do you think it can get bigger ?
Same problem on my S8. Didn't notice it until day 27 and the folks at samsung are being a complete bear to deal with.
Might just be me coming from years of plastic screen covers but this thing is a film, I assume so it can bend around the edge. It has barely any sticking power...the first one came right off with the "back" of the application sticker. I was like DAMN can barely see it! Only to realize it was torn off.. The second one I had to literally hold each section down as I pulled up and its been on an hour and the edges are starting to peel up and damn near catch on everything. =( You also have to be careful not so stretch the film or it wont sit correctly. sigh...
I hope this is just something new to me, but I went ahead and order 2 skinomi's in case...
Anyone else displeased with the verizon screen protectors aka "display protector film" for the note 7
Yes I had purchased them I think it was 15$ for the 3 pack! They had put one on the phone there and told me to keep pushing down on edges and it will eventually stick.... Which I thought was weird at the time ?.. But whatever got home and seen it wouldn't stay down no matter how hard I tried. I ended up taking it off and throwing the other 2 away... Long story short they are JUNK.

Took my 3 weeks old flip to get fixed because of the popping sound it made. When opened, just below the grease, on the right edge of the phone. When I slide my finger or press on the spot, it gives a pop sound (and feeling to the finger). You can feel the screen moving up and down and after you lift your finger, it pops off from the residue/glue under the display. It is like there is a tape that does not stick.
There is a reddit post about this so this is just an extra data about the defect, just in case if Samsung won't repair or something.
So, it would be nice to hear if someone else has this problem too. Thanks.
Mine just did it last night, it's on the right side too, where I've seen the others. I'm gonna do my best to ignore it lmao
My first unit had this problem too, it wouldn't lay completely flat when open either. I think the popping/screen detachment might be related to the hinges not opening fully cause whenever I'd force it open flat, the screen wouldn't pop anymore. In the end I returned it and my new one is perfect, no popping and it lays flat. If this is happening to yours, either return it or get it fixed.

Never realized it was supposed to lay completely flat. No popping, so I guess it doesn't matter.
I'm pretty sure the root of this issue is hinge unevenness(if that's a word) side-to-side, I put a spigen hinge film on the other day and it's very noticable in the indent across the middle of the film from the phone pinching against it. The side with the pop is closing further and pressing a groove into the film while the other side is a barely visible line. I'll try to post a pic later I traded in all of my old phones for this one lmao

Also mine went away today, screen 100% back to normal. I got my phone thoroughly wet in the shower today trying to get dust out of the edges, might be related might not. At any rate, good to know that it's not a big deal, if you have this issue it just might fix itself after a week
I have the same on mine. It only affects the lower left quadrant. Pretty annoying.
