Invisible Shield

Just to let you guys know that I got an invisible shield for the S4 (front only) a couple of days before launch.
fitment is perfect and covers the screen up to the point of the sensors at the top and home button. I initially wanted the one allowing a skin but given that I use the cover with the hole, this was pointless.
Also the brodit car holder I am using clips from the top where the shield does not cover so it's perfect.
Not much else to say but if anyone was after one, it's not a bad purchase. Obviously still comes with the 25 year warranty on it too.
As for feeling, yes bare screen is lovely but I personally prefer the slightly matt/textured surface as it helps type and grip better than the slippy glass surface.
I have taken a pic but you can't really see anything so I won't bother uploading unless someone does want to see.

I also picked one up. Something that should be noted is that they sell different versions. The one I picked up was the HD which was supposed to be smoother than the regular one. It isnt as smooth as glass by any means but it is considerably nicer than the older plastic ones. There was also a privacy version to prevent shoulder surfing.
I will eventually migrate over to the tempered glass I think. Waiting to hear some reviews on a good sticking one, I hate bubbles or anything of the sort.

Ah yes good point
I think there are about 4 or 5 variants. I have to say and please don't let it be an insult to yours but HD had the worst of reviews. While it was more "glassy" like, it was also more thinner and was very easy to scratch.
I went for the original and so far despite a couple of rubbings at the gym, it's still mark-free.

never did like the clarity of these things. they kind of make the screen look like it has ripples. i like the regular old screen protectors.
that being said xtremeguard.com has essentially the same product for like 80 cents each i think with the promo code 'coaster'
i bought some as backups cause they're so cheap

I just noticed after my last post that I do have a bunch of soft scratches in the screen protector. None that touched the glass of the phone but still you can see them under the right light.

This is called Orange Peel and Zagg is infamous for it.
I got this sp on launch and now a few days later it looks like I've had this phone for 2 years. So many small dents.
My spigen screen protector and case come tomorrow, cant wait to rip this crap off.

I bought the invisible shield extreme. There is absolutely zero orange peel on this model. It is also crystal clear. I had a few people who hate any screen protectors comment on the clarity. It really looks and feels like there is no screen protector. The extreme is a bit thicker, but it does not effect any aspect of how the touch screen functions.
I owned the original invisible shield on my last 2 phones. I will say that the orange peel was pretty ugly. They did work as advertised though...

I can't comment on the HD. It is worth getting over the original. It does work with a case. I just got my Seidio Active yesterday, works great!

Thanks. Well.... I guess I'll have to decide on my own whether to pay the extra $10 for the EXTREME. Wish it was cheaper.

Well, I ended up getting both and gotta say the Extreme is definitely worth it for a couple of reasons:
1. It is thicker so there is no worry about cases pushing up on it.
2. It comes out smoother and clearer without any air bubbles, but you have to wait longer for it to even itself out.
3. Easier to apply, especially with the rest of them attached to the silly new packaging.
4. More protection obviously.

Zagg hd all the way! It looks and feels like nothing is there. No orange peel rubber feel. Plus the same easy wet install.

I got the zagg extreme for $15.

[Review] Tempered Glass Protector

Touted on the listing, as well as on the packaging, as an "Explosion-Proof Tempered Glass Protector" .... explosion proof... really?
Anyway, I thought I'd get one of these protectors for my Note 8.0, as I have and still use a similar product on my Note II and from many hours searching, the only place I could find one for the 8.0, was on Alibaba, never bought from there before and was slightly dubious at first, but thought I'd try it out.
I was quoted 30 days delivery, but came in 10 so, nice surprise.
The packaging is fairly decent, and it too came came well packaged, put it this way, I'd have been extremely surprised if it were to have broken in transit.

Inside you get some kind of alcohol wipe, a microfiber cloth and the protector of course. I also got these 2 "Raised stickers" I have yet to discover what purpose these serve, I at first thought they were to be placed next to the rear camera, to stop the lens touching a surface when placed on it's back, but it's not quite thick enough for that. So for the time being, they're going to be stored quite safely......... in the bin lol.
Unlike the usual flimsy protectors, this has cutouts for the ear piece, home button but NOT for the camera, The fact it doesn't have one for the camera, doesn't concern me however, as it doesn't appear to give any adverse affects when the front camera is in use.
Fitted and is simply excellent, feels like your using a naked tablet. No slight scoring when using the S-Pen (as I suffered with cheap eBay flimsy protectors) and generally feels like there's a lot more longevity to be had out of it.
Pros: Real easy to apply, in fact it was far easier applying this than a normal one.
Great feel, feels like your using a naked device.
Crystal clear, you don't know anything is there when looking at the screen.
Downsides (Or things to consider rather): The thickness of the "glass" (I'll get on to that "Glass" in a mo) means that the home button feels more recessed than raised once in place, but this is the case for most hard screen protectors.
Now the glass, or rather the material it's made of, I can't work out if it is actual glass, or plastic perspex? Are they calling it glass for simplicity, I'm just not sure, not that I'm bothered in the slightest, it does what I wanted it to do. But I'm sure they'll be some nitpickers out there wanting proof that some bloke made this by melting sand in a Furness lol.
Update:
Link to the protector.

Really nice.. I used zagg screen protector for Note I and Note 10.1.. never again. I've been using my Note 8 with no screen protector but this one I might try. How much is it? Could you post a link?

I use the XGearlive tempered glass protector on my SGSIII and love it. They provide a small stick-on plastic raiser for the Home Button. These guys haven't figured that out yet one supposes.
Might have to look into this. Got a link?

Just had that light bulb moment haha, I forgot to say at, first I was slightly concerned about buying through Alibaba, I made an account, i went through the checkout, then I left it and went searching elsewhere.
The seller must get notified if someone goes through the checkout but doesn't complete, because they sent me a message asking if something was wrong, I said the price was too much, a bit of haggling back and forth, and I got it about 23% cheaper.

Actually, no. I followed the same steps as you described when you ordered and didn't get anyone inquiring if there was an issue. So I just went ahead and ordered. Got confirmation of shipping yesterday. The countdown is on.....

Ahh man, perhaps you needed to leave it a bit longer, because when I added it there was a day or so that I left it after adding it to my basket and getting to the part where you pay, they sent me an email asking if there was a problem etc, etc...

I'm particularly interested in it's oleophobic qualities. Can you tell us if it really resists fingerprints like a naked screen?
All my phones are naked coz thats the best anti-fingerprint surface ya gonna get. However for the Note8, I had to get a screen protector because of the constant scribbling on it

I am interested with this also. The "naked" screen actually HAVE the BEST anti-fingerprint surface. I have the Note 1, S4 Active and now Note 8.0 and the screen resist fingerprint far better than any of the CLEAR screen protector / tempered glass out there.
However, since I use the stylus, I am afraid I will scratch the screen, so I am looking for a screen protector / tempered glass that:
1). Does not affect the responsiveness of the stylus
2). Resist fingerprint like the original screen

Tempered glass

Anyone know of a Tempered Glass protector that goes reasonably close to the edges? I have this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017D763IK/ and it is terrible. Bunch of space around the edges and halo effect.

You won't find any that goes to the edge per the curve
But I've been using this for a few weeks and it has minimal halo effect (possibly none had I aligned it perfectly)

I ordered these and they fit great. They fit just to the edge of the display panel which is how it should be or else there will be halo because the glass starts to curve after that.

Those were not 2.5D. IPhone 6 onwards is, and it uses smaller screen protectors too due to the curves at the edges of the screen. Even galaxy edge products. Nothing can't be done about that as the glue won't stick on curved glass. I wouldn't call it an "issue". It's very basic imo.
I'll try adding pictures, but you can also check them out on the nillkin website. Those are very accurate. The actual product is exactly like that portrayed on the website.

I'm returning an item just like this (different vendor) as the adhesive is just around the borders and top.
The adhesive is weak and in my case it was not aligned properly to the "glass" so you could see it covering some parts of the screen.
The middle have no adhesive whatsoever and it does not make contact with the phone screen. This causes the protector to flex and each tap/touch on the screen feels like using an old phone with plastic screen.
One last thing: it is a fingerprint magnet and very reflective.

Dang, that sucks. I'll definitely be needing tempered glass, and this is one reason I'm leaning toward the G5—Edge owners are having a devil of a time finding a good one for themselves.

Please post pics of the Yootech.
I'd be really surprised if there's a tempered glass protector that is already correctly designed for the curve at the top. As in, Will it stay stuck? In the past whenever I've had a curved glass phone it's usually months after its release when a company finally designs a true curved TGSP. I hope I'm wrong because I have a Yootech on the V10 and it's great! (Them not making one for the S7 yet might be a sign as to why this was pulled from Amazon).
I settled for a cheap square one for now [Omoton on Amazon].

It is too expensive in my opinion.Less than $10 is OK.

I'm cautious of anything that claims to cover curved glass. This is just based off of my past purchases.

Best rear glass skin CLEAR

Hey. Got the coral blue and honestly don't want to put a color or leather on this one like I normally do. I'd rather have something translucent, maybe matte and grippy for the rear glass only.
I've really only seen the Zaag HDX invisisheild on my s7 and really liked it but it isn't out yet. Does anyone know of others or how grippy the skinomi matte is?
Fyi I have no intention if putting a screen protector on the front because I'm a man and identify as such.

Something like this?
Friend had a Spigen Crystal case for their S7 Edge, looked really good but I don't think I every handled it so can't tell you about grip.

How about this? Can't really go wrong for the price! I have one on my OnePlus 3 now, and it's pretty grippy! I've also order this one from Orzly and already received it!

This is always my go to case, but i also ordered this one since I got black oynx... https://www.amazon.com/Ringke-Prote...+For+Samsung+Galaxy+Note+7+2016+-+Smoke+Black

I have had the ringke and the spigens and both are solid cases. I am looking for a simple stick on skin. I don't love cases on phone since phone design has gotten to perfection levels. It just feels so much better.

Since it seems like the rest of the posters have missed your whole point, I'll actually answer the question. I've used the Skinomi matte before (on a Note 5) and the regular Skinomi (on an S7 edge). It's pretty grippy. Certainly better than the glass or a plastic case.
That being said, Skinomi has some terrible shipping date like September 30th, so I opted for IQ Shield this time. It shipped out the day after I ordered.

I scratched the **** out of my S5 screen back in the day when I went sans protector, so I opted for a regular front and a matte back, regardless of my gender.

Easyacc for my Coral Blue
Yeah I wanted clear too for the coral blue. Going to be nice upgrade from my HTC One M8! I ordered one of these, will have to see if it's any good:

Hey. Got the coral blue and honestly don't want to put a color or leather on this one like I normally do. I'd rather have something translucent, maybe matte and grippy for the rear glass only.
I've really only seen the Zaag HDX invisisheild on my s7 and really liked it but it isn't out yet. Does anyone know of others or how grippy the skinomi matte is?
Fyi I have no intention if putting a screen protector on the front because I'm a man and identify as such.

Since it seems like the rest of the posters have missed your whole point, I'll actually answer the question. I've used the Skinomi matte before (on a Note 5) and the regular Skinomi (on an S7 edge). It's pretty grippy. Certainly better than the glass or a plastic case.

Thank man. That was what I needed. I order the skinomi matte and didnt see anything about a delay in shipping. Where did you see that?

It was on the product listing last week - it said something like "Shipping 9/30". It's possible they have adjusted that now.

Confirmed that it shipped. Maybe it's because I went matte but it's out.

Funny, that came live today. I usually use them for natural leather but the coral Blue phone is just too dope to put anything over it.

Can you post if you get it. Slickwraps looks best to me, the other one looks like it gets that weird orange peel look on it. I may end up getting it too to keep the back safe and the metal frame safe. I'll probably do tempered glass for front

Sorry for being late to the conversation. I order this case in black for my Note 7. I had the same case in Gold for my S6 Edge+. Offers very good protection on the edges. Actually dropped mine a few times and survived without a scratch. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01GIUIC9G/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Looks like a great case. Does the clear backing get scratched over time?

i always use skinomi
There great and since the phone is waterproof install is easy and no worry.
They go on like tint and hold pretty good on the curves.
I used one on my note edge, s7edge and order one for the note 7.

Does it cover the metal frame?

Looking for a suggestion for a very thin clear case. I don't want covers on any of the buttons. I wsnt holes for all buttons and ports.
Thanks

Got my Spigen Case today from slickwraps. Really Nice feel to it.

Its a silicone feeling material and really flexible. I had the one on my S6 Edge+ since the day the phone launched and it didnt scratch at all. Not even when I dropped it and had it in the same pocket as my keys.
