Hey ya ppl , first of all sorry if my english is not all good , i'm from spain.
I recently owned a S4 ( less than a month ago ) and i'm very impressed , it's better than i thought . The problem is that , though I've been very careful with it ( my gf have said in a couple of times that i love more it than her haha this can make u guess how careful i'm with it ) some small few scratches have appeared on the gorilla glass . They're not visible when screen's on but with blocked or off screen and playing with light reflects they are visible and they **** me off cuz i have been very careful with it and It piss me off everytime i see those scratches . First day I see them i started searching on google to someway to remove them , and I jumped to some topics where ppl said it was some method with toothpaste to remove them... so in my desperation I tried that and ( as I should expected ) not only the scratches wasn't gone , in fact there were more little little scratches around the other product of rubbing the toothpaste in circles on the screen. Searching the internet for the best screen protector and protector case i've arrived to the Spigen slim armor view and Spigen glass TR , which though are expensive seems to be the best or one of the best ones on the market.I know also there're some screen protectors that hide or cover the scratches on the original screen , since those scratches I have are only esthetic and doesnt affect in anyway the screen quality or performance , I would be happy If some screen protector could hide or cover them . My question then is , anybody know if that Spigen GLASS tR , which seems to be one of the best screen protectors on the market , is also good on hidding or covering pre existing scratches on the original screen (in our case the gorilla glass 3 glass) ??? thanks in advance and I hope somebody can help me cuz I wanna order some glass protector and I wanna be sure that It would solve my problem. Thanks again and sorry for the big post lol :laugh:
c'moon , UP!
I have a small scratch on the left top corner of my s4. The scratch is completely gone after putting the glass sp.
Hope it helps!

My guess is that if the scratches are only visible at certain angles in the light (i.e. very light scratches, not deep ones) the glass screen protector will probably cover them up because it will change the way the light reflects ever so slightly that the scratches will not be visible. It's only a guess, but even if they don't at least the screen protector will prevent more scratches. You should have gotten a screen protector from the very beginning.

Yes mate of course that was my intention , i made an order by internet BEFORE getting the phone guessing i would recive it ( the case and protector ) 2 days or so before getting the phoen , so I will take too much care and so till then . The problem is that 3 weeks have gone and I still haven't received the fuking order , so in that time , i dont know how , small scratches have appeared...well as u say those scratches are only visible at certain angles and with light ( like sunlight ) so I hope glass TR protector will hide them . Since its only an esthetic question ( cuz the performance is the same , those scratches doesnt affect on anything the screen performance or quality) it would be a good fix if the protector hides them. Thanks for the answer
I feel you brother, the tiniest of scratches will piss me off, even if they are only visible at a certain angle in light. Luckily I didn't get any before my glass arrived. All i got to say is once you use a tempered glass screen protector you'll never want to use a regular screen protector ever again.

Mate, I have the same experience with you. The glass screen protector will hide it! Just like brand new!

OP, been thinking about also buying the spigen Slim Armor View and that screen protector. Do you have them both? Do you recommend the case also? They are pretty expensive... But I broke my S3 glass (with the Samsung original protective cover plus on) and don't want it to happen to my new S4...
Where do you live and much did it take to get there?
Cheers

On the 1st post you wrote " Searching the internet for the best screen protector and protector case i've arrived to the Spigen slim armor view and Spigen glass TR"
The scratches occurred because the black version of the case you bought is glossy. In the Slim Armor View the black is matte.
I am expecting my S6 in the mail this week, i am concerned about dropping it but not crazy about using cases for a phone so im looking for the best tempered glass protector that is currently out there, dont really care what the price is as long as it has no significant issues with it .
I am also concerned about the back of the phone, has anyone found anything to protect that that isnt as intrusive as a full case?
You can cosider the Otterbox or Araree branded tempered glass protectors. Both are good with no observed halos.
I didn't want a case for mine either so I just went with a dbrand carbon fiber skin for the back and also for the camera lense
Sometimes. no film on your phone is much better than having one one your phone.
Phantom glass is the best. It uses actual gorilla glass, not just any run of the mill "tempered glass"

i've got the Otterbox glass and can confirm that it's halo free!
You can consider the bumper case and a tempered glass screen.
Hello,
I am wondering if there are any screen protector out there, that cover only the screen? Like the one you get with the slickwraps if you buy skins for, lets say the G4? https://slickwraps.com/leather-series-wraps-skins-for-lg-g4.html
I mean the screen protector that goes OK with the front skin applied?
Thanks!
If you know for any good ones that cover ALMOST the whole screen, I am up for that too!
I know that Nillkin CP covers the whole, but I don't like it.. So any other that is similar to that,..?
I purchased a full screen protector a few months ago, worked flawlessly. I ended up cracking it and replaced it with one from the same ebay seller, now my case causes it to flex and pull away from the screen. I bought a spare just in case, that one too, has the same issue. I ended up buying one that wasnt a full screen protector to leave room for the case lip.
Following the other thread on screen protectors, i grabbed this guy:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VT8CP6Y
No halo effect, allows nicely for a case (i use a Spiegn Tough armor for reference). It does extend above and below the screen, but should be pretty close to what you are wanting, while not looking like grabage at the same time..
Was also looking for something similiar so I just read around. Just ordered this myself:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00QU4N0EI/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A2SFKRF5TPZMT5
So once I get it in ~2 days I can report back.
Thanks for all the replays guys! @Divine_Madcat @FiniteDGk @custommx3
I have order the Spigen Neo Hybrid Ex bumper, as my Dbrand skin for the back came today, and I love the look of it. (I saw a video on YouTube a while ago for this combination, and I've fallen in love with it... So now I am waiting for that to come..
What I want is basically a screen protector that does not look to funny when it's on..
I've had Orzly on my OnePlus One, but it cracked from nowhere.. I swear I watch all of my phones, as I am very allergic to scratches, lol. It started to collect to much of dust and I was using it together with the Diztronic TPU case (I thought that was match made in Heaven at that time)..
S6 Is by far the best phone I've tested so far, the only thing that drives me crazy is to protect the screen..
I want a screen protector that play's nice with the bumper as its Spgien same as yours I assume it will play out nice. @Divine_Madcat
Anyway I've ordered Nillkin tempered glass (Not the CP one) from Aliexpress, I hope it is Original (It should be).. And I really hope it will play nice with the bumper, and look decent.

Nice! That is actually the case I ordered as well, what a small world!
Ordered Mocolo Glass for S6 ?
I get all mine from Xtremeguards and love them. I have had them on every phone I have had in the past few years. You can always find a 99% off code or 98% off code as well.
Try imos glass protectors. They are a Taiwanese company that use corning gorilla glass and AGC glass , and have no halo issues . They even have 3d curved glasses for s6 edge that covers the 3ntire screen including edge. Crazy ! Check out my S6 with IMOS AGC glass with no halos :

I have ordered OnePlus 6 today.. And waiting that would come tomorrow.. This time it's almost 95 percent glass so protector would be must need to keep the device mint, especially for the BACK!!
So Let me start of the thread for the OnePlus 6 Screen Protector.
I have ordered OnePlus 6 Full body screen protector from the Gadgetshieldz.
And I hope this time it's merely impossible to get the best TGP soon. Please let know your suggestions.
Finally got my Gadgetshieldz protectors and applied it. The protector is fitting well and all the holes are perfect. Important part is, its providing lot of grip to the OP6 which is very slippery without the protector. Might go for a Tempered Glass for the screen if I find a decent one but the back protector is a keeper. Take a look at the images of the protectors applied on my OP6. Can't go wrong with these for a low price.

Thanks. Ordered one as well. Mostly for the back protector since the phone is glass. Hopefully OnePlus releases an official TGP that includes a back protector.
Ordered same too !
Great worldwide free shipping. Wonder how long it takes...
I bought the original bumper carbon case but forgot to buy the combo (case + screen protector).
Now I don't know if I should buy the original oneplus screen protector (tempered glass) or buy something from a 3rd party.
Any ideas?
Hi,
I thought we cannot use bumper with tempered glass ?

Hmm, you may be right.
This is the one I bought:
https://www.oneplus.com/uk/oneplus-6-protective-case
And this was the bundle:
https://www.oneplus.com/uk/oneplus-6-total-protection-bundle
What is the difference between the protective case and the bumper?
I think bumper protects the screen better. But if you use a tempered glass you cannot use bumper as the covered lips of the bumper will damage the tempered glass.

Anyone had any experience with those nano liquid protections (ie: https://www.spigen.com/collections/oneplus/products/screen-protector-glas-tr-nano-liquid )?
I ordered the phone with the Nylon bumper case. I almost pulled the trigger on the tempered glass protector as well but I was worried it wouldn't fit with the bumper case and it appears I was right.
The great news is that this phone comes with a pre-applied plastic screen protector. So the screen will be protected right from the beginning. This will buy us time for the release of more tempered glass protectors that may fit with bulkier cases like the nylon bumper case.

According to OnePlus support chat, the tempered glass protector will work with the bumper case. I'm not saying they are right, but I'm saying there is a chance

With the ultimate bundle, you get the choice of bumper case and tempered glass. It wouldn't make sense to bundle them if they didn't work together, but who knows. The strange this is that the bundle that includes only a case and glass, doesn't offer a bumper case.
I have the bundled case and the sandstone. Both fit with the OnePlus tempered glass. I would guess the bumper does too having looked at it in the shop but not 100% as I didn't put it on.
Since they sell the bumper and the tempered glass together and there are no notes in the tempered glass that it does not work with the bumper case, i am really hoping that you can use the 2 together since that is what i bought. if they don't work together, i will have to send the bumper back.

I did not have experience with this particular brand but ordered from AliExpress for $3.50 each about six months ago for my Samsung Galaxy S8+. It's been six months w/o a screen protector and not a single scratch insight. I don't have the rough use of my phone but don't baby it either. Long and short of it is: This type of product MAY work and just to try it out, I would not spend $24. $4 and wait of 2 weeks should get you the same product at a much cheaper price to try. Here is the link to the product I used:

One question. Are you sure the official TGP includes a back protector?. In Spanish online store don`t say anything about this.
Greetings from Spain.
When you uncheck the body-protector, you pay 9.95$ instead of 11.95$ so pretty sure it does.

Are you talking about this? :
OnePlus 6 3D Tempered Glass Screen Protector Black
$19.95
x 1
This is the official TGP from OnePlus.com online shop. In the description says :
In the Box:
OnePlus 6 3D Tempered Glass Screen Protector
Don't say it has a back protector.
Greetings from Spain.
I am sorry mate, I got you wrong.
I was talking about gadgetshieldz, there a back protector is included.
Oneplus official tgp doesn't include a back protector (and @brangalm says "hopefully" so he isn't sure either), but I ordered it as well.
I brought a spigen hybrid clear case today and am looking for a tempered glass without the black border around it as the border cuts off a little of the screen. Please recommend one, for delivery in India

I tired multiple ones either their too big and causes halo effect or too small , so i opted for ones with black border and i am happy with it and so i would suggest goto a local shop check it out so you can see size .
I bought multiple screen protectors but gadgetshieldz offered amazing screen protector. Yes it is not tempered glass but its quality is really good and the phone feels slimmer since its not a tempered glass. If you dont have butter fingers and your phone doesnt fall often then go for it.
I tried all the variants and brands on the market. Finally settled on using a hydrogel screen protector. It is not available on any online stores but local shops definitely have them. Though it may not provide the drop protection that glass protectors provide, it is resistant to scratches and you will not even know it's there. It covers the front from edge to edge. Again, it is not very high on shatter level protection but it is great for light users like me.

Try looking for TG's for Lenovo Z5 Pro/Z5 Pro GT.
It have the same dimensions as our device.
I purchased one from glazedinc. It costs about 495, I know it'a a bit steep, but for what it's worth it covers the entire display and has real 2.5d on the edges. It really feels like using the phone without a tampered glass. From what I heard as it covers the entire screen it also provides better drop protection.
I got one from a local shop for Rs.80 ($1.10). No black borders, covers the screen display portion exactly.
