Hi all
Amazon UK now have MediaDevil screen protectors for the XZ (front and back sold separately). Just fitted mine, much nicer than the ones that come in the box. Only been on for about 30 mins, but fingerprints actually seem to wipe off these ones! V happy.

did you mean fingerprints are still visible but can be easily wiped?
Yes. They're still there, but nowhere near as bad as with the original ones, and I can wipe them away on my jeans.

The front and back are sold separately, but there were two in each pack.
I'd just wish they came with oleophobic coating

They look nice but I'd prefer from the UK rather than imported from US.

I e-mailed mediadevil asking if they were planning on releasing one with oleophobic coating, got this response...
"I'm afraid we're unlikely to release an oleophobic version -- some brands do use this material, however it does not meet our standards for several reasons. First, this material often has a blue tinge, and we only sell protectors that are completely clear. Second, it is much more likely to experience the 'rainbow effect', and third, while it does show fewer fingerprint marks, it has also been our experience that the fingerprint marks that do appear are more difficult to clean.
If you have had a different experience with oleophobic screen protectors, we'd be very interested to hear about it, however at the moment we have yet to find a material that does not have these issues."

What is the general concensus on which protector has the best fit? I really don't like the spigen (too much gaps, and lazy cutouts)

I take it the Clarivues are front only. They sound good though from their website. But odd terminology talking about "1 set" but seem to mean "1"

Nope, im using it at the moment, its front and back (x2).. Great price, performs as it sshould sooooo no complaints so far
Ah awesome! They do look good. the front/rear lack of clarity on their wording was odd though. I even read their installation instructions for it and was only talking front.
Did you use that "masking tape" trick to install? Or just really good at putting them on? I'll be trying the masking tape way
Has anyone found any large sets of cheap front and back protectors on eBay?

Nope, just good ole:
1. Clean the screen off (Make sure no dust, lint, etc are on the screen)
2. Don it on the phone and use the cam cutouts as guide.
3. I did get dust and lint after installation, I used clear tape to take off the sp a lil and used another tape to get those lint/dust.
viola..
took about 5-10 mins for me to install perfectly.
Screen protector and water
Hi Guys,
I bought a Krusell Frostcover and had a front screen protector installed today. I don't remember its brand, the shop assistant threw its packaging out. I remember it was sort of blue, and it had a microfiber cloth included...
I never had a protector before and I'd like to know how it reacts to water. I'm not planning to go scuba diving with the phone, but since it's water resistant, it will probably get sometimes. May it affect the film? Loosen it? Or no problem, unless it gets underneath it somehow?
Thanks in advance!

Its fine with a sp, i wash my phone once a week.. And all is well
http://theglass-m.com/
Ordered from here and received yesterday. Shipping was very fast and has a cut out for proximity sensor and back camera. Apparently its gorilla glass and fits great. Has a nice anti finger print coating. I have been searching for a glass back protector and finally found one. I can post pics if people want but the price is great and fit is also good.
Is it just me or that website look dodgy to say the least...
http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0252/5983/products/07_1_1024x1024.jpg?568 <--- is there the "Sony" logo?
How much it's thickness?
if you put the glass on both side, is it can fit the docking ?

You could put it over the asf, I did it with another brand glass protector. Just makes sure it clean and dust free. These one came with a big sticker to remove any dust.
Can you please put a Picture of the Phone in a way we can see how much the glass is in thickness compared to the Phone looking Just at the sides?
How abt scratches and fingerprints ?
I found this http://www.evolutivelabs.com/
Seems a bit better, also funded from kickstarter so kinda trustable.

I have had rhino shield on my nexus 4 and nexus 7 also for my xperia z. The first generation where not very good. They scratched easily and also got dented easily. On my nexus they didn't cover much of the screen and on my xperia the one they sent had issue with the back protector. I have ordered the second generation since they were giving the people who backed them on kick starter free second gen ones. I have not received them yet so cannot comment on them as of now.
These have been very good so far they are apparently made of gorilla glass so they are scratch resistant and have anti finger print coating. The best I have used so far. These are 9H and rihino shields are I beleive 5H.

Thank you, they seem quite thin from the pictures. While we can notice it's there, it's actualy quite OK in therms of thickness.
It's a case that the pros outweight the cons by a large margin.
Ordered now.
Let see how it perform compared to my old SGP one.

Do you have the sony dock or the knock one. I had to take out the spring loaded tabs to get mine to work properly it would charge but a slight knock on my night stand would sometimes stop it from charging.
Hi all
So I will be in receipt of my Note 4 next week and whilst this may be an odd thing to ask, I was wondering if anyone makes (or can make) a nicer back cover for these? I'm thinking something metal though I understand that may be a bit of a push (carbon maybe?! I'll be happy to pay for a one off!)
I ask because I remember how flimsy the back cover on my old Galaxy S3 was plus I'm not digging the "Faux Leather" thing!
Any Ideas or am I dreaming?!
Thanks
If you like premium, wait until Element Case releases their Note 4 lineup. I always get my cases from them and they're perfect. All of their cases push the speaker sound to the front as well

Thanks for that, though it's not a case I'm looking for. More specifically it's the rear cover of the phone I want to replace.

According to Element's Facebook page, they have no current plans to design a case for the Note 4.
Sucks, they're extremely nice.

Don't think so.
I'd settle for the front firing speaker support
My cover doesn't fit properly out of the box yesterday, so I'm interested in getting a decent replacement too.
So it seems someone else thought the same as me!
It says it may interfere with NFC but seeing as I don't use it this is not an issue for me.

If you want premium check out the Mont Blanc cases for the Note 4. They also offer their pens with wacom stylus features.

i wonder how the signal is on something like this?
Those Element Cases are incredibly hot (not to mention completely reasonably priced)! No idea how I've never heard of them before... Might I suggest that those who agree start contacting them and "requesting" (demanding ) that they make a Note 4 case?

Samsung Clear Cover Note 9 Transparent
FYI..
Actually samsung did it with Note9, found it by luck in one of our local online stores here in Dubai. I don't think its available on Amazon anywhere (US, UK & CANADA) YETTTT...
Sharing it here so if others are interested, they can keep an open eye around waiting for it.
This is mostly a plastic snap on case, not a tpu.
Ordered it, & i didn't receive it yet, will update this upon receiving it. If any is interested.
The local online store doesn't ship internationally, so am not sharing it here.
I want this. Keep me updated OP
I’m really looking forward to this case. It is the only one of the official cases that appears to be out of stock everywhere. I had this hard case for my Note 8 and even though it doesn’t seem to offer that much protection it provides a perfect grip and make the withd of the phone ideal to not slip at all from the hand.
Doesnt it come with the phone?

I've bought it today. It looks very nice and slim. Of course it fits like glove. It has a grippy feeling which is good for me. And it is soft not a hard case. I'm glad I've bought it Hope it does not turn to yellow soon.
Could you please upload some pictures? I wonder if it is the same case that came in the box ?
Looks like they tinted it slightly blue/gray which should reduce the yellowing effect.
I want the hard plastic case like they had for the Note 8. Felt like you didnt even have a case on it. Oh well.

I bought this generic one on 8/15, it delivered today:
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/292656916441
Real nice fit, ultra slim profile & no rainbow effect.
FWIW, it does not have the raised corners (or any raised edges) like the PC OEM Case for the Note 8.
Protection is as minimal as it gets, top & bottom are fully exposed, oversized cutouts for the buttons.
IMHO, perfect......
@Semantics
EDIT:
Seems the selller has updated/substituted what I purchased.
The one in the link is not what I have,SMH,sorry about that........
@Semantics
EDIT #2
Here's one that closely resembles what I ordered:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Galaxy-Not...-Cover-Clear/163216970699?hash=item26007d53cb
It has a bit more coverage,but,the buttons are still cut out,vs the protuding button coverage on most cases.
Yeah,a bit pricier than the one I originally linked,but,it's cheaper than the OEM Samsung one & actually available now.

What do you mean by that it covers enough that it would be annoying? It completely covers the screen and black borders are not on visible part on display, only 1-2mm in angles which is not something annoying.
Yeah, I can tell that this combination can be dangerous...
It barely fits with my ringke fusion x...
If you press a bit the sides of the case it can easily opt-out the glass...
No it's not a good combination...
I tried it.
Try nilkin cp+ pro, not "max".
