I was given a few from radioshack but It involves me trimming them to fit. I suck at that **** and it never comes out right. Is there a proper way tot rim the screen protectors and measure them? I took off the oem one because the tab kept pulling itself off
Forget universal. go to a t-mobile corp store and buy them there, you get two and they cover the screen completely.

I was the same way. but I feel that the universal ones are of a lesser quality and tend to scratch easier. Also cutting them just right is a pain.

I got my G2 yesterday and bought the screen protectors from T-Mobile. Didn't have them do it in store because I was in a hurry and when I got home and applied them they leave the screen looking very fuzzy.
Anyone else noticed this?
I am taking them back tomorrow.

Yea I was just discussing this in another thread with someone else. I do like the feel of them plus they get no smears or fingerprints for me so good for swype and I'll wait til it goes bad then I'll go to ebay and buy like 10 for 5 dollars, they always work good for me from ebay and they take a while to scratch

Did you get the anti-smear screen protectors?
If so, how are they... i am still shaky on spending 15 dollars on (2) screen protectors
Yes these are the anti smear screen protectors and I am taking them back today. It bothers me to look at the screen for too long because it looks like it really gives a green or pink tint depending on how you look at the screen.

How does the screen protector feel with this product? It it kind of like the invisible shield? or it it more of a glossy "glass" like feel?
I had the MyTouch 3G and i could buy these awesome glossy screen protectors that felt just like the glass. Fast forwarded to the HD2 (just wanted a phone to mess around with) and the matte screen diffusers really irked me, so i dont want more of those if i can avoid it.

Not only are they anti-smear they are anti-glare. compare the protector to another glossy type and you will see that the glossy will reflect, while the ant-smear almost does not. you gain anti smudge/glare , but know the protector is disturbing the clarity of the screen. I just ordered Stealth Guards. I had this on my HD2. Its a copy of the invisible shield. It does not include the solution for install, but you can make your own, instructions included. It's free right now , only pay shipping (same deal on my HD2) 4 kits ran me $8.85. My HD2 has had it on about 6 months and it looks great and gives a nice feel to the phone.
I've read nothing but good reviews of this screen protector, had to get some for myself. I can't wait for that glass feel.

All anti-smear/glare protectors give a grainy look. it is due to the texture of the material. since it diffusing the clarity of the reflection it also diffuses the screen. ask an employee at a store if they can open a pack for you, so you can lay over the protector on your phone so you can get an idea.
personally its not that horrible. i just have it on until my stealth guards arrive.
Just ordered some stealth guards
I have had success with ebay seller dcmugen but don't know if he has our model yet.
You can get pre-cut sp's for cheap but if you really insist on cutting it like i did because i had an couple of hd2 sp's laying around use the plastic that came on the screen as a guide. take an exacto blade to it. i didn't want to mess with 2 rounded edges so i left the flat side and placed it above the menu buttons.
i tell you this much though, if you cut them the edges will be lifted slightly from the cut unless you file it. needless to say this is just a temporary solution for me until i either decide to return it or keep the phone in which case i would buy a pre-cut one.

I believe it is. All the reviews on the iPhone 6 which is basically the same glass are positive. I think the aluminum might look cool but I'm in the same boat. I'm going to wait for some reviews and when the white version comes out
I like the look of this lots but wonder how the crown will effect the fitting of a case, I'll also be waiting for a black version and seeing if they post to the uk

One of the reviews I watched mentioned that the taper of the crown where I case would meet is approximately .1 mm. I would imagine it depends on how much the case wraps around the front of the screen. The one that's on my phone right now actually doesn't even get to the glass.

I'd agree it will depend on the case and my current one a spigen neo hybrid over laps the glass I would say by about 1mm or possibly 2mm, still very tempted once the black version arrives.
Op will you also update when they make the black variant available?

We will only have silver at launch. We are planning to add more colors in the future. Thanks for the inquiry Dave!
Bit vague unfortunately.
Why they would only have silver when the phones are either white, black or gold is beyond me.
'Cause aluminum is silver and they're rushing the product out before they can get a process in place to paint or powder-coat or whatever the aluminum?

They have the "Crown" for the iPhone 6, 6 Plus and Note 4 in Black & White. I believe that they should have the color process down pat by now.

Ok, new theory: They want you to buy the silver one, then buy a new one when the color you want comes out.

And I believe you are also 100% correct.
So all this is really doing is using the "silver crown" to hide halos, right? It doesn't sound all that revolutionary, but I guess its one way to get rid of the halo problem.

Correct. Basically the same idea as the tempered glass screen protectors with colored borders. Both are just two different ways with dealing with the halo. The good thing about the crown is that it actually curves with the actual glass. Whereas the edge to edge tempered glass screen protectors have a small gap between the edges of the tempered glass and screen that tends to build up dust.

I bought one for my Note 4 and to be honest I was very dissapointed. After installing the glass and the crown piece (they are seperate) I still ended up with a very slight halo that can be seen all the way around the glass - it was small but you could see it when the screen is off.
The "Crown" piece isn't as smooth as you would hope and my finger catches on it - particuarly around the home button -(at the bottom of the phone)
The concept sounded good - but the execution was slightly off - I complained about it to Body Guardz and they sent me a new one - same thing happened.
I still have it on the note - but I would never buy it again and I won't be buying it for the S6 - but that is just me. Others may have different results.
I'm thinking about getting the official samsung S-view standing cover case. I've got a silver phone coming but I want to get a black case because light colours get dirty quickly. Will it look silly to have a silver phone in a black case?

I don't think so. Black and silver should match well enough, and if you have any doubts stop at a store and try them out in person if you can.
Cool.. I took a chance.. I just bought the case.. my phone is stuck in customs clearance though.. I hope they clear it soon so I can get it today..
I've been looking at the same and I think it would look good. Post pics if you would when you get it!

As requested. Sorry I took so long as I put a black screen saver on it as soon as I got it, but that's broken so now the phone is naked again.
I just got a tempered glass from ebay india and too my disgust it didn't even cover the whole screen, forget about the halo effect/bubbled edge. Although I was able to install it perfectly I have raised a claim for refund. After the fiasco I started looking for soft protectors that would bend properly and cover the full screen. I found a good one on aliexpress but yet to receive it. Check it in the link below and see if it suits you. Its only $1.71.
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/For...i-explosion-screen-protector/32723814105.html
It looks pretty good from the reviews of similar items.
PS: please don't buy the one listed below. Its really bad. See the attached pics for details.

that should since its soft and would easily bend at the edges. Sadly we don't get such stuff in india easily.
Hello Everyone..
Just like you all I too was sad that P2 had bubbles in the corners.
I finally found got a workaround so wanted to share my experience.
The solution for me was to buy a tempered glass with "6H" hardness instead of the regular "9H" ones.
These are slightly flexible and hence do not form bubbles in the crners where the screen is bent.
I bought "JMM Flexible Tempered Glass Screen Protector for Lenovo P2" from Amazon India.
I dont know if we're allowed to post links here. If yes let me know and I'll post the link.
Thanks...Hope this helps. Enjoy the P2
Yes please...
But then 6H is really not tempered glass is it? It's more of a plastic AFAIK

Here is the link:
https://www.amazon.in/gp/product/B071LG88CW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
There are other Flexible Tempered glasses too on Amazon.
Its not as flexible as they show in images...Almost like glass (dont know exactly what material)
Once on the phone it looks just like tempered glass...plus all the tempered glass features like olephobic coating etc etc...
Thanks! I've placed an order. Will review it once it arrives
A workaround that is claimed to work is to put the tempered glass screen protector (even one which is 9H) on top of one of the PET sort (maybe because PET is both flexible and cheap?). https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/forums...sage-id/3761/print-single-message/true/page/1

Honestly I would not suggest 2 screen guards one over the other.
Specially when one layer is the regular screen guard which is not so clear...Having 2 will surely affect display quality and may impact touch response.
However if you do try it let us know the results.
Thanks

Update1: tried it on sticks on perfectly fine at the bend areas, thanks to @sammys3
However, the sides come of if not stuck properly. It's easy to apply though. Small mis alignment may place the protector to the curved edges and won't stick.
Will keep this on for sometime and see. Will update after a week of usage.
Overall pretty happy with it. I'd recommend it

This one I guess: https://www.amazon.co.uk/OMOTON-Len...d=1509293091&sr=8-1&keywords=omoton+lenovo+p2
But since you're in india, I don't see any way for you to get your hands on one, amazon.in don't sell these.
Be careful however, it may work for some, but for me it didn't. See here: https://www.amazon.de/product-revie...UTF8&filterByStar=three_star&showViewpoints=0
The bending of the screen caused these white air-bubbles to occur at the sides. While not being as terrible as the bog-standard tempered glass screen protectors, it was still too bad for me, so I'll just stick to plastic protectors.
Oh, and the work around posted here: Didn't work for me either. The tempered glass protector just pulled the plastic one up, so I still had air-bubbles. Well, it was worth a try ^^
Get the clear filler....

I just got my screen glass few cracks in it, I just want the screen glass only [gorilla glass only] is it is available there? What will be the price range?
Or I should buy the complete set for replacement? Super amoled display for 2-3k? I don't want cheap lcd display replaced. Your answers will be helpful...
kirtikhurana said:
Led screen could be used from any Samsung phone like J7 pro or similar size which can be used in the existing touch panel of P2 but if you also broke touch digitizer then you have to replace whole folder(including the front panel) which has to be of only P2 if front panel is available in market or P1(maybe) can be fit.
If you led screen panel is intact than no need to replace while folder but repair shops install whole folder because extracting led screen from touch panel may broke it also.
There even iPhones folder won't cost more than 3500 but main issue is the availability of front panel of P2.
if you want repair shop phone number. I'll give you.
