The local Samsung shop put their own screen protector on my 12.2 and I'm not happy with the friction between it and the S-Pen (too much). I have the Logitech cover/kb coming in the mail and when it arrives I am considering just ditching the screen protector entirely. I've owned several Samsung phones sans protectors and never got them scratched.
Thoughts?
Tempered glass screen protector or nothing if the feel of glass is what you prefer. There's a thread about them in the accessories section.
I went ahead and got a zagg invisible shield for mine (until my mime tempered glass gets here saturday) and actually have to say Im pretty please with the performance. I had to get a hard squeegee since the one that comes with it is too soft to apply properly. The screen works rather well with the spen. Havent had any issues thus far. Pretty happy with it. I am using the rubber tips btw. The plastic may be different. Still switching to tempered glass though

Skip the screen protector. Only consider it if you frequently jam your phone into your pocket next to keys and change, which is definitely not a problem with this tablet.

Not gorilla glass though and despite extremely careful use mine already has 2 light scratches I can safely recurrent the invisible shield from Zagg and going to test the nine on saturday. Only issue with zagg is squeaking from my hand dragging on it. specifically the second nuckk of my pinkie

I don't know about the glass yet, mine should arrive today (Yea!!!), but the plastic one I have from amazon, sucks for the pen, I feel the rubber tip disintegrating as quickly as I write. The glass should be much better.
Matte screen protector with hard nib
I use a matte (anit-glare/anti-fingerprint) screen protector on both my note 12.2 and my note 10.1 (2012) with the hard plastic nib on the s-pen (not the soft rubbery one). The texture of the matte screen protector make it feel more like writing on paper.
When using the bare glass (no screen protector) I prefer the writing experience of the rubber nib on the s-pen because it gives the right amount of resistance to emulate writing on paper. However, my palm sometimes sticks when I try to slide it (depending on the amount of moisture on my hand).
I prefer to use a matte screen protector because my palm never sticks (even if my palm is sweaty). However, the rubbery nib causes too much resistance for the s-pen with the matte screen protector, so I use the hard plastic nib instead (which is just right).
Visually, the matte screen protector decreases the clarity of the screen and reduces glare. There is still some glare in extreme environments and I don't notice the degradation in visual quality. Ultimately, I use the notes for handwriting so I don't care about the visual effects of the screen protector either way.

I guess you better ask in the Tab S7 forum.
Here is Note 12.2 P90*.
With all the talk about the 2.5D glass I was looking at the non-glass screen protectors on Amazon....the Skinomi gets 30+ people giving it 5 stars which makes me VERY suspicious since NOT ONE of the reviewers mentioned if it fits over the edges of the curved glass or is cut just to the flat part.
Has anyone personally tried a Skinomi on their Note 4? If the reviews are to be believed then this could be a winner for me.

because it's wet screen protector. it's going to fit very well on this device. once it dry it's going to be really good. I am going to get one soon.
If it's the same as their other screen protector, it'll have a soft slight tacky feel to it and your stylus will not run smoothly on it. I have skinomi skins on my note 3 and gear and I don't use their included screen protector on the note 3 cause of this.

Planning to get the Galaxy S6 instead of Edge due to price, anyways happy about the design and look of the Galaxy S6 I think its time to upgrade to this one instead of going for the Note 4.
I want to buy a good tempered glass screen protector my S4 suffered some micro scratches and I regret not having a screen protector on it. What do you think is the best brand with a durable screen protector for the Galaxy S6 or any other phone it’s my first time to buy one, need help.
Need a Tempered Glass and not just a film, here are my top choice
Zagg
Luvvit
iCarez
TechArmor
Found this one so far looks promising but not sure about the brand
Ultra Thin Tempered Glass Screen Protector for Galaxy S6
Any other suggestions?
I like magnaworks screen protector works well I think
Nillkin Tempered Glass screen protector would be a fine solution.
+1 for Nillkin. They have been great for me so far
Zerolemon's
Is there some who got informations about some glass screen that have one for the back included ?
I don't wanna hide this beauty behind a case
Not yet..
Does the back need tempered glass protection too in order for it not to crack?

Don't hope so...
I think its the same gorilla glass in the back and in the front so yes, if you're gonna put a screen in the front, it seems logical to put one on the back too.
EDIT: Nillkin tempered glass front screen + non-glass back screen available on ebay. Just bought one
Anyone have any experience with iVoler? Unless I'm mistaken, this looks to be a tempered glass protector for the front & the back for $4 with free shipping.

Just purchased both a front and back tempered glass (Nilkin). I'm wondering if an aluminium bumper would affect the signal/gps at all, and if the tempered glass would get in the way... Any thoughts?
Ah hell with it. Went the aliexpress route and purchased the aluminium bumper. Hope it all works out. I'll report back whenever I get it.

What does "25d glass" mean? I thought (or maybe hoped) the glass was flat for the S6 and curved for the S6 Edge.

Anyone got any links for the Nillkin front & back tempered glass protectors from any UK sellers?
The majority i've seen on eBay are from China and estimated delivery is 14th-30th April.
I want one on my phone as soon as I have it!
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.

Good Luck. There is a big difference between a flat and curved tempered glass protector. Most of the flat glass protectors work well.

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.

I bought two curved glass from Amazon.
here is one https://www.amazon.com/Tempered-Pro..._SR160,160_&psc=1&refRID=Z343M09T5D72J2425XPP
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.

Just played with the note 7 at the sprint store and they had a screen protector on it that only covered the flat part. Couldn't tell if it was glass or not but it definitely affected the use of the phone.

How did it affect it?
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.

I ordered a tempered glass protector from Xtremeguards. I used the Olympic90 code and got it for $1.60. Cant go wrong for 2 bucks shipped Haha.
Which one do you recommend for the S10e? Right now I'm still using the default protector which was applied by Samsung, but I don't really like it.
i ordered one on ebay but i have a feeling it's flat not edge to edge full cover for 10e. They use generic photoshopped stock photo for all 3 models and claim it's curved. I think 10e has 2.5D edge. Not completely flat. I'm also using the garbage thin film they included. For $800 scumsung could include high quality glass and case. I also ordered glass for rear cameras. Never seen or used one before. Not sure what to expect.
tried ESR tempered glass and MP mall tempered glass from amazon
both do not stick on side, ESR is off by like 0.75 mm because of 2.5D curve of glass, it does not stick on side. so dont waste your money on these two, i am still looking for one may be just a bit smaller than ESR.
temporarily ordering a film protector till i find a tempered glass which fits right.
I'm using the PureGear HD Clear Tempered Glass Screen Protector https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07P7S174H/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_byaHCbZY5Q1N0
It only has adhesive on the edges so there is no bubbles. It is case friendly and is a decent alternative to the whitedome which remains the superior choice for the 2.5D screens.

how is touch sensitivity and does is create rainbow effect like some tempered glass with adhesive on side do?
Keep in mind aftermarket screen protecters (especially glass ones) will have problems with the fingerprint reader.
Im using the samsung one for now until some testing and revising is done
No rainbow effect and if you increase touch sensitivity in the settings it works great. I have no real complaints.
which non-glass protector do you guys recommend?

Yes, that's exactly what you are seeing. The S10e does indeed have a factory installed plastic screen protector. You can really feel it around the camera as there's a cutout for the camera. I would expect it to scratch rather quickly, plus I don't think it provides nearly as much drop protection as a tempered glass one might.
I'm following along here hoping that there does wind up being an economical tempered glass screen protector that works well and doesn't life at the edges. Seems like this will be similar to my S7, where I was never really able to find something that works and just went naked.
Thank you for the response I've just been so confused with everyone saying the S10 and S10+ have one but not the S10e. I think you're right it is just a polyurethane plastic protector. And just a heads up I tried to apply a tempered glass protector over top of it and it definitely made it hard for the edges to stick.

I had the same confusion. All of the media I've seen say the pre-installed one is only on the S10 and S10+, but if you look around the camera on the S10e, there's clearly a cutout that confirms there is a pre-installed screen protector on there. I'm still not exactly sure how to get it off. I picked around the edges a bit and nothing is coming up easily.
I'm not sure how well the edges of a tempered glass one will stick even if you took off the pre-installed one. I haven't seen any reports of an economical one that works yet. I think I'm going to be in the same boat as I am with my S7 and be forced to go without one.

I ordered an Alinsea glass protector from amazon, sounds like a knock off of a Whitestone from their description. It doesn't have a cut out for the front facing camera, which is great, as a cut out just seems to collect pocket lint. I have not received it yet.

I got one. First time doing an install of this type and given the barebones installation tools provided, it was above average difficultly. First one ended up with bubbles.
