What's a good screen protector?
gorilla glass,so don't need it
btw the best screen protector is by BRANDO
Even with Gorilla Glass i would want one for anti-glare and anti-fingerprint measures.
There are many conflicting reports on the web re the screen, where does it state that it has Gorilla Glass.
Wrapsol, Google it or YouTube it..

nah, my opinion would be don't use any screen protector. the screen already has a stereoscopic film w/c makes the display a bit pale. so putting on a screen protector might affect the viewing quality more... been using mine for some time now and still doesn't have a single scratch on the screen(*crossing fingers)...
So now that the phone is released who is going to be putting screen protectors on them and does anyone know what the best method is for putting a screen protector on.
I have a screen protector on mine (don't trust the phone yet, nor do i have a whole lot of trust in myself). 3D still works great and the 2D viewing experience is, in practice, unaffected. Installation depends on the kind of screen protector you are going to use.

How did you put your screen protector on?
Well, i just put it on.
It's a PIXXENO C82RS (crystal clear, no adhesive). The only difficulty is aligning the screen protector properly since you'll notice even half a milimeter. Besides that you should pay close attention to dust since you would notice that as well beneath the protector. But it's relatively thick and easy to apply without airbubbles.
I'm looking to get a nice screen protector for mine too. btw, so happy with this phone! everyone I show is blown away by the 3d! usually saying "I thought it would be a gimmick but thats really good!"
For my wifes iphone I just got a generic screen protector and used a drop of water to apply and a baby's plastic spoon (solid but soft enough not to scrach/mark the plastic) to push any bubbles out.
Brando ultra clear screen protector became available few days ago - I've just ordered one.
Currently I have Proporta's universal 4.5" protector. It's better than nothing, but I feel it's too thick and doesn't adhere completely to the screen at the edges. (I know 4.5" is different than O3D's nominal 4.3" screen diagonal, but the protector almost perfectly covers the screen + keys, everything except upper area with front camera.)
I bought screen protector for Samsung Galaxy S, it perfectly fits the Optimus P920 screen, i only cut about 1-2cm at the bottom. The whole screen of P920 and touch buttons is covered, its really perfectly fits to Optimus 3D
I bought two packed pieces of it for about 6,50€ .
Just applied Brando ultra clear protector to the screen. Very happy with it, it's nearly 100% transparent.
Naturally I hate putting on screen protector or cases on my phone. I came from SGS to O3D and I didn't need a screen protector (a real gorilla ). Unfortunately I have seen some little scratches on my O3D . It looks like I will be parting with this phone sooner
Even with Gorilla Glass i would want one for anti-glare and anti-fingerprint measures.

gorilla glass only goes so much if you have, for example, specks of sand in your pocket or if the phone falls in gravel/tarmac..
Screec Protectors FTW
Could anyone recommand a good (tested!) screen protection that have the properties of anti-glare and anti-fingerprint? Some ebay links?
I´m using EXIM screen protectors: http://shop.eximstyle.com/ quality is good, price is cheap and fitment is perfect.
ebay link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/3x-Exim-Anti-Glare-Screen-Protector-for-LG-Optimus-3D-P920-/310402174660?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4845694ec4#ht_5620wt_952
I have theese in my TOMTOM navigator, 3 different phone, DSLR Cameras etc..
Im planning to switch out my old stock screen protector that came with the phone as there are some scratches on the screen protector. Im wondering, which screen protector is the best for my phone as in durability and clarity and cheapness (under 15$). Also anti glare is not a feature i would need but it would help as long as there is no rainbow effect on the screen

This has been discussed extensively in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=800638
I have a Skinomi screen protector and I love it. I got mine shipped to be for about 9 bucks. Use the coupon code skinomi25 for 25% off. Pretty much covers the shipping costs and tax.
I like the Skinomi because it is durable, easy to install and I can hardly tell it is installed on the phone. It retains the natural glass feel of the screen and doesn't affect the touchscreen at all.
The one thing I can advise is to use patience when installing it. You can reapply the protector as long as it is wet. It took me about three tries but once I got it placed perfectly, it looks fantastic.
I was just talking about this earlier... I would recommend ClearTouch Anti-Glare screen protectors (they have a "Crystal" version as well) by a company called Boxwave. I use the anti-glare version. It still looks brand new and I've been using it for over 6 months now. Screen visibility and sensitivity seem totally unaffected; no rainbow effect though the anti-glare is very mildly textured. The texture quality seems unnoticeable when the screen is lit. It's reasonably priced too.
the cheapest screen protector you can get is the household saran wrap
just kidding.
check ebay. there's alot for a really good price
I'm looking for Screen protectors for my N4, I've tried a couple from eBay and they didn't fit my screen properly but they were from China and not name brand. So I'm willing to spend a little more on a screen protector, preferably LCD glass. However all of the reviews that I see for N4 screen protectors, I read half good/ half bad reviews.
Can people suggest decent screen protectors that fit the N4 properly without causing sensor issues, for under $10
I imagine a good list would help others in the future as well.
I bought xtremeguard...
it has more silicon touch feeling and its applied with soap water.
I am very satisfied since it is very hard to get a scratch - its very durable and reusable if you get dirt under...
it costs around 6€ but you can get discount code for 90 % on the web ...
ismooth with lifetime replacement warranty. Keep in mind that not all dry application films will cover edge to edge, due to the curve glass. ISmooth is the only screen protectors I will buy. Very pleased with them.

I used halo, got them off amazon. They are dry, and don't cover the curved portion of the glass, but the cutouts are perfect and cause no sensor issues, about $6 shipped for 3, IIRC. They seem to be as durable as the boxwaves and clairvues that I used on past devices that were more expensive.
I use mpero screen protector, got it on eBay for 5 bucks.

I ordered a LCD glass (oleophobic and lyphobic) from a seller in China on eBay for $7.99. It didn't fit properly so it didn't seal so I had to keep trying to apply it and the adhesive went to crap right away. Had to ship back to China for replacement. Good way for a seller to get negative feedback.

Ordered a cheap 6 pack for $1. Will use those until I settle on something else.
These actually work well. $1 for 6. Delivered in like 3 days.

thanks for sharing! :good:
Guys,
Just use eBay for these kind of products.
With time things change, and eBay constantly updates itself with those new products as sellers are the ones who sell those products.
So just use eBay to search for those kind of accessories and you would be fine.
I tried bestskins. Touch works perfectly, sensation is ok (not perfect, not as neat as glass sensation but ok), lasted nearly a year. Less than 10 bucks
try bestskinsever on google.

I would second this... Halo screen protectors are really good for the price. Some users report issues with them lifting on the edges where it curves but I have not seen this. Very clear, good touch response, and don't interfere with any sensors.

I just picked up a couple Nillkin/Redpepper tempered glass screen protectors off eBay for $6.50ea. Nice packaging (despite the spelling errors on the box), and sturdy, unlike the one I ordered from China and came shattered. Comes with rubbing alcohol pad and microfiber cloth. Took a long, hot shower, then left the water going and applied the screen protector without a speck of dust under it (humidity keeps lint/dust from circulating in the air). The protector is exactly the width of the LCD, which leaves plenty of room for cases that overlap the screen edges. There's adhesive across the whole glass, so dust won't get underneath, unlike the XGear Fantom 4. No issues with touch sensitivity.
I like the durability of XtremeGuard, but not so much the rubbery feel, nor the fact that putting any case on will push the edges up and cause peeling. The dry application ones feel better, but are less durable against scratching. This is the first time I've used a tempered glass protector, and I don't think I can ever go back to other types. Naked glass just feels so much better.
I'm satisfied with the N4 display, after quite a few phones which were Gorilla Glass but not so good. The last good screen was the Samsung Wave 3's OLED with Gorilla Glass 1, it was impossible to scratch. N4 continues the legacy, i've been using it without a screen protector for 6 months and there are no scratches.
And after applying exponential brightness mapping mode, the screen became a fusion of IPS & OLED, blacks are pitch black now
You won't need any screenprotector on this device I had my Nexus 4 for over a year now, not a single scratch on the display so far.
And yet I lifting lot of Europe pallett, pusing it to my body (and near my pocket.)
Tech Armor make fantastic protector for the sceen.
I personally suggest a matte foil, great thing, seriously. I use one from the 3mk company, if u can get one of those in your country - just buy it and u will be happy with it.

What's the exponential brightness mapping mode?

panel backlight mode which allows for a more controllable display brightness. some kernels have it and you need Synapse or Hellscore Manager app to turn it on
it allows you to set minimum brightness to very low, and improves black levels close to amoled. You must turn off auto brigtness because its made for LINEAR, not Exponential brightness mapping mode
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfdsXqpnCEs
Left LEDs are Exponential - Right LEDs are Linear
Left is not as bright, but gives better contrast (better blacks)
If you have an OLED screen this is not benefitial for you and i think it only works for IPS
Hi i received today my screen protector that I ordered on aliexpress
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/2pcs...rotector-Full-Body-Explosion/32471481594.html
really nice fit, front and back, edges are nicely rounded.
I noticed that touch is a bit less sensitive
I've got a similar one but haven't noticed any reduction in sensitivity but it was fairly easy to apply and with a 0.33 screen protector like you say the egdes become really nice, almost like Sony designed the phone with that in mind
I went with a .3mm tempered glass protector too. Similar good fit, but I too have noticed a distinct reduction in senstivity. Guess I might have to change back to a more standard protector.
I've got this one and like I've said, no noticeable sensitivity reduction.
Not sure if the picture gives any guidance since most seem to be the same package (but mine was front only) just different paper covers. Also love the fact that it got a typo on compact (compzct) ^^ Chinese high-end :good: The stickers and wipe packages where more or less identical to the ones that was shown on the site for the first post.
I washed my screen with water and soap to remove grease more effectively, then did the normal steps for applying the glass.
I got this, which I had on the Z3C as well and it's perfect.:

The one I got fits almost perfect, maybe 0.5 mm "gap" around the screen but since the egde is above the normal screen the phone feels more or less completely smooth. How small is your screen compared to the phone?
My tempered protector fits well but it feels like it's a little less responsive.
Sent from my E5823 using Tapatalk
I orderd mine from ebay for 2 euro and its awesome. Dont have any problems with responsiveness but you people that have that problem can try to turn on the handglove mode in dislplay settings so it responds more.
I've never used a tempered glass protector. (Usually use a SGP protector)
Do most of these use an adhesive to bond to the screen? Does it prevent clean removal?
I put this in this morning and it works great: http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/olixar-sony-xperia-z5-compact-tempered-glass-screen-protector-p55394.htm
I'm considering this one by PThink Seems to have alot of good reviews. I'm not sure how well it really works
Just added a Taggshield Tempered Glass 9H Film to my Compact. Fits nice, as mentioned before, almost as if Sony set the glass lower for this to be added. Easy to install, no glue etc.
I wonder how long it will last on, as static holds it on, hoping it will protect the glass from scratchs. Time will tell
I bought this one http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Ultr...ctor-Film-for-Sony-Xperia-Z5/32475934373.html
0.2mm thin, easy to apply
Aliexpress... tempered glass. Cheap but long time to deliver
I have used Orzly Tempered Glass Screen Protector on both my Z5C and Z3C
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0158V7WNI
I'm specifically looking for a protector that has no camera/sensor cutouts - bought one that the picture had none, but it has them (and they're horribly misaligned).
If anyone can link one they have that is cut-out-less I'd be very grateful.
Ultimate Shield?
I have one and this not have cut-outs...
Just to give you guys an update. I bought my glass screen protector a few weeks ago. So easy to install. Dropped my phone from a height of about 5ft onto a sharp edge of metal and then onto concrete. I have a silicon case too. Smashed the screen protector and got a nice dent on the side of my phone but otherwise it's perfect. Any other protector would have allowed my screen to break. Well impressed and new one arriving in a day or two.

Hey everyone
I have just bought a Samsung Note 9 and awaiting it to be delivered to me.
I always use tempered glass screen protectors but I am worried about using the S-pen with the protectors.
Does anyone know if you can use a tempered glass screen protector with the S-pen effectively.

I have the white stone dome protector and it works flawlessly with the S pen You don't even need to turn up the screen sensitivity
I wondered about liquid screen protection and I am watching one on EBay but I was wondering if normal versions work as well....i don't want to fork out all that extra if normal tempered glass works just as good as well.
I purchased the MP-MALL tempered protector and have not issues with the S-PEN. Looks good and hopefully will protect well. It is on amazon for about $12
Go with WhiteStone Dome they are tried and true. The best tempered glass I have ever used and it worked with the S-Pen and alot of cases I have tried.
Zagg one seems to work fine, imo it registers the pen better than finger keyboard stroke.
I bought a few different brands on Amazon. They all showed up in the same brown box with different labels printed out, they are fairly sharp at the top and bottoms. T-mobile has a glass cover that os actually tapered and smooth. They all work amazingly well with the pen. Although sensitivity does need to be turned up for finger use. I downloaded a multi Touch test app to confirm

The only down side is that they are over priced and they do crack easily as reported by many.
The Mocolo is half the money and is made with 9H hardness which the White Stone isn’t. The Moloco is as good or better as the whitestone, as responsive and as easy to apply.

I'm not worried about a $40 screen protector when I just paid $1,300 for the phone. I've had the screen protector on multiple phones now and I have not cracked or had any issues with any of them. Unless you're a complete klutz and you drop your phone multiple times a day you won't have any cracking issues.
i bought glass protector from aliexpress similar to whitestone dome but a lot cheaper one piece cost around 5$ only
'
first one was not perfect good thing i bought 2 extra
second piece i installed it and it fit perfectly on the screen only thing i installed a bit lower than it should be
so it almost touch the case from the lower side but there is a big gap on the upper side
i got a bubble on the lower side from testing several case because as i said it installed lower than it should be.
the spen and finger worked perfectly with it and alot better than the regular glass with matrix dots the stick from the sides only and i did not turn on screen sensitivity on both protectors
I had the ghetto whitestone setup on my Note 8 (LOCA glued a regular tempered glass screen) and now the whitestone on my Note 9. No issues at all and no changing of screen sensitivity.

I await your future posts about glue making a mess and bubbled lifting corners. Just get a wet applied plastic film , not perfect but definitely less hassle and no issues with sensitivity, I don't even have that extra sensitivity option turned on my device.

This is my experience, as well.
They should work perfectly fine as S-Pen functions using electro-magnetism. Via the electro-magnetic Wacoom digitizer underneath the display.

Hey everyone... Thought I would update you on on my Note 9 and screen protector issue... in the end I went with the Liquid screen Protector but I didn't get WhiteStone Glass.... I used a cheaper alternative and it works really well.... Also looks really vivid.
The Ebag seller who I got it from is called Itocorp but they seems to be out of stock at the moment.
