Screen very reflective - Huawei MediaPad M5 Guides, News, & Discussion

Anyone else notice how very reflective the screen it, I currently have the Samsung s 10.5 & that is much less reflective. Not sure if I could live with the highly reflective glass on huwaei, borrowed my parents huawei mediapad M5 10 for a few days.

Does View 10 have oleophobic coating?

Can anyone who have View 10 confirm whether it has oleophobic coating or not? I am thinking about buying this phone but dont like screen protectors.
Yes, it have good oleophobic coating.

Interesting.....
Mine came with a screen protector installed.
I don't know about the screen itself, but with the screen protector on, it is much worse at showing fingerprints than my Honor 8.
The Honor 8 came with one of those shipping screen protectors with the little tab to pull it off. The one provided with the Honor V10 is more like one that is meant to stay on at least for a while (no tabby thing). If I am wrong on this, and I should remove it, please advise.

How durable is the P40 Pro?

So just discovered that the P40 pro apparently lacks Gorilla Glass, I do not do cases or screen protectors so I am wondering how durable this thing is going to be?
I think that as I am used to going caseless I am probably more careful than most and had no issues with the P30 pro that I had (or the Mate 20 pro before that)
Anybody have any battle scars yet?
I didn't even realize that, Gorilla Glass seems to be so standard on phones these days! I haven't dropped the phone yet and I've been using the included case and screen protector. I'm waiting to receive a slightly more rugged case as well as a glass screen protector, I didn't realize this phone was one drop away from cracking.

Gorilla glass

I have been looking for this info but I get so many different answers that I still can't know for shour,. Does the p40 pro comes with gorilla glass 6 or not? Does anyone have a answer with a good source? If not I can't understand this move from huawei, is not like the p40 pro or pro plus are cheape so not even bother getting a top glass for the phone?
No Gorilla Glass - I believe they're using their own "AirGlass" or something like that.
Later iterations of Gorilla Glass have been too soft for my liking... I'm a scratcher and not a smasher, my P30 Pro looks pretty beat up despite Gorilla Glass being present. P40 Pro has held up well so far, few scratches, but nothing out of the ordinary. My Mate 10 Pro was my most scratch resistant screen to date (older GG)

If I not mistaken, the P30 Pro also don't have gorilla glass, that's why I'm asking about the P40 Pro. On their site, corning have a list of devices, the last huawei is the mate 20 pro. Not sure of what kind of tempered glass Huawei uses but is not near as strong as gorilla glass 6

Hmmm, I've dropped my P30 Pro LITERALLY hundreds of times and yes its scratched up, but no cracks over a year on. No case either. My friends S10e cracked around the hole punch first drop... So can't say I agree but that's fair if that's your opinion.

Case and screen protector

Hello guys,
I'm looking for the best case and screen protector for my Realme X50 pro.
I have not found good cases. I've tried several screen protectors but always the same problems : size, bubbles...)
Thanks.
Hey.
I'm in the UK and because this isn't a very popular phone (most people haven't heard of it!) it's been very difficult getting a good case and screen protector. Here's what I have though.

The first one went on with no bubbles. It could maybe be a little longer, or maybe I could've put it on a bit lower, but size wise it's OK. Don't have the money right now but think I may end up getting the OnePlus Nord official screen protector and trying that as they both have a 6.44 inch screen.
I ordered about 5 different cases and this is the one that I stuck with and have been using for 2 months now

The case is NOT leather, you can tell that from the pictures. The green stripe on the back is just a sticker which comes off easily and the case looks better without it. It doesn't overlap the screen so you cannot lay the phone face down. It does have a large metal plate in the back for using with magnetic car phone holders, which I do like.
Overall, it's a great phone but due to the issues with accessories outside of China/India I'll probably stick with a more well known brand in future.

Gorilla Glass Victus - Bad Micro Scratching

I have had my Note 20 Ultra now for about 3 weeks and out of every Gorilla Glass phone I have owned this has to be the worst when it comes to micro scratches on the display. Every time I clean the screen I look and see about 10-20 more minute scratches on all parts of the screen. And while they aren't visible when the screen is on it is just disappointing that this phone which is supposed to have the toughest glass ever appears to be softer than previous generations.
Just for some background I have owned every generation of Samsung Android phones in either the S or Note variant. I never use screen protectors because even the best ones effect touch sensitivity and refract light differently never allowing you to enjoy the full beauty of Samsung's panels. I always keep a very protective case on the phone, currently the UAG Monarch, to protect the rest of the phone from scratches and more importantly damage from drops. Usually over the course of a year I wind up with a fair share of micro scratches on the screen which typically doesn't bother me at all and I accept as the cost of not protecting the screen.
I have no plans to protect the screen for the reasons I mentioned above and would still choose, even if it was new again, to go without protection. I just wanted to know if any of you were experiencing the same issue I am.
I'm experiencing an opposite reaction. Got my note 20 Ultra on release day, it's display seems to be more resilient to micro scratches than the previous Note 10 + that I owned

No scratches here either. Though I do baby the phone more than the average person.
Mine came with the Samsung pre installed protector and I dare not remove it.
As JerryRiggEveryrhing says " glass is glass"
I always apply the Whitestone Dome Glass Screen Protector after removing the factory fitted one as I'd always be drawn to such scratches.
Speaking of JerryRigEverything I just went and watched his videos side by side of the Note 20 Ultra and Note 10+ and to my eye it looks like the screen does in fact scratch worse on the Note 20 Ultra. The level 6 scratches on the Note 20 Ultra look more like the level 7 scratches on the Note 10+. The level 6 scratches on the Note 10+ look a lot shallower and less noticeable.
Either way it's fine I buy my phones to use them not baby them I'm just a little let down by it. To anyone who cares a lot definitely get yourself a protector because it won't take long before you will start to notice them.
Edit - The Note 10+ picture is on the left, Note 20 Ultra on the right. It was hard to get good screenshots but feel free to watch both yourself.

What kind of screen protector are you using that affects touch sensitivity and has a visible effect on image quality? I NEVER have those issues with screen protectors.
I put the Ringke dual easy due to unknown scratch resistance of the Victus glass. It looks crap in sunlight but at least it gives a little peace of mind

Just about every combination of film or glass protectors that are available. For a while I really tried to find one I liked but would still wind up ripping it off in a week. Glass protectors always refract light weird and just don't have an OEM feel when using the phone. Whitestone dome came the closest but fingerprint sensor never worked right, even with relearning after applying. I really tried to like it especially after spending $60 on it but, like the rest, it wound up in the trash. I eventually gave up and just decided to go naked and have never turned back.

Weird. Whitestone and similar thick screen protectors affected the FP sensor for me, but turning up screen sensitivity eliminated any affect on the touch. I've never been able to discern any visible differences in image quality, but I couldn't handle the affect on the FP sensor.
I've since switched to Ringke Easy Dual screen protectors. They're a film, and you'd never know it was there.
Sand will scratch all these screens... easily.
It will get marred sooner then latter.
Any screen protector also decrease the chance of breakage by impact as well.
I've noticed my urethane protector is hard to scratch but after 3 months... time for another $5 makeover.
I kept the one already installed that came from and yes is very easily scratched but at least it works with the finger print sensor and it's free, and keeps me from the hassle of installing a new one that I can't guarantee that it won't screw the FP sensor.
