While I think it´s a great idea to have a tempered glass screen protector so we can have a nice protection against drops (I once broke my S3 screen in a pretty small and stupid fall) and scracthes I refuse to pay the 25 to 35 dollars the brands like spigen are asking for a mere screen protector.
So, suggested by another forum user, I ordered this screen protector, ther seller shipped it in the 21th so I should be getting it in a couple of weeks...

For the price it looks great...Anyone ever tried it yet and can give an opinion?
Will review it when it gets here, of course.
Cheers!
For that price, I must say you can't do any better.

Yeah, I believe so. I would like to know the opinion of someone who bought this one or something similar on ebay...chinese, unbranded and cheap
Do you have a glass screen protector?

For the price it is tempting... It's a throw away if it isn't any good.
Little strange though, when I went to the link, it popped up a dialog asking my language (English wasn't a choice) and a list of countries they ship to (US wasn't one). I know it's a Chinese company, the sites in English, and I think they ship to the US, but that's weird.
I bought similar protector from ebay, it was ~10$ from china. It has been awesome protector and after month of using it, zero scratches! Only cons I give from way too wide cutout on top and open cutout below the home button. Otherwise it's very good protector. And yeah the jelly buttons that it came with was rubish.

Thanks for your input
So there is no need to use the jelly buttons, the home button is easily accessible? Was is easy to apply? How thick was yours... 0,5mm? If you can please post the link for the deal or some photos.

Actually there is no use for jelly buttons because of that cutout at the bottom, but I will install one when I get my spigen case. It was super easy to apply, no bubbles. It claimed to be 0,4mm but I didnt measure the real thickness. The box said GTG meaning gold tempered glass.

I will add some photos tomorrow if I remember.
Thanks. it looks the same as my deal, from looking at the photos. Glad you liked it
Woah!
The price is awesome!
If anyone has this piece, I'd love to hear some more feedback.
Also some photos would be great. How thick are these?

Regarding the eBay one the user vesu is using it for a month now and can enlight you. As for the aliexpress one the seller shipped it the 21st so I believe I will receive it in a week or so. Can't wait to put it to go with my original Spigen Slim Armor View case in matte black.

The case is freaking great, the best I ever used regarding looks, protection and functionality although I believe spigen is reaping us of asking such a high price.
My review regarding the fake (I also have a purple fake, the only matte finish existent) and my black original one:

The price figure is really very cool....would love to purchase some for me too...just do post the reviews and the pics when u receive it because I have not used any chinese screen protector ever...so review is important
I'm planning on buying the OPO with a screen protector along with it and the flip cover. I could see two screen protectors one being a normal one and one being premium, i don't see any differences in the site. Anyone here know? And which one should I get? Matte or anti-fingerprint? Thank you

Don't bother with either of the official OnePlus screen protectors, they're useless. You want a tempered glass screen protector, they actually offer some protection for your screen. I use the Nillkin 9H, it's outstanding. I've heard good things about the Rhino Shield one too.

Couldn't be happier with the Nillkin. Put off installing it for a bit and went naked. Really can't tell too much of a difference when it's on, and it was way easier to install than the film type protectors.

Nillkin? Aw man does that mean i have to order somewhere else? And does the tempered glass they offer suck too?
I'd stick with the Nillkin. And yes, you'd need to order it somewhere else, I don't see why that's a problem though.

i was gonna order it along with the phone to lessen shipping costs, but nevermind i didn't get the screen protector or the glass. I only got the flip cover with it as the shipping cost got up to almost 20 dollars, so i thought that i would just get the screen protector somewhere else. Thanks btw =)

It looks exactly like the pic, which is why I liked it even more. But yes it does make it a lil heavier, like all bumper cases. I feel it's worth the premium, in terms of weight. [emoji4]

Has anyone seen a protector for the glass on the back of the phone? I have seen some that cover the entire back. I was hoping for one that covers just the glass on the back. I think tempered glass would be best.

I was thinking the same thing, but there will be an uncomfortable lip. Tempered is pretty thick stuff. I think slick wraps has a matte finish naked version. That shouldn't compromise the natural look of the metal.

I was thinking about trying one of those liquid screen protectors just on the back. Sharkproof I think is the one I saw on Amazon.
Man, I came across one last night. It was a UK site and they had a two piece back protector, one piece for the back glass and one piece the the bottom half. I can't for the life of me find where I saw the link. I could have sworn I saw it here, but it could have been on reddit.
Xtremeguard has a protector for just the glass. You have to buy the full back or body kit though. I ordered a set for my 5 inch pixel but it hasn't arrived yet. I got mine on amazon but don't see the XL listed there. Someone on Reddit got one and had pictures of it.

Put 2+ in cart and use GIANT92 code for 92% site wide shipping free, but $1 expedite is a tad faster.
They are the old orange peel type without the dots/pores, self repairing, adds good grip.
I install these even if using a tpu/case keeps the sand that gets in from scratching the back and phone stays mint.
Edit; forgot to mention I install these using the steamed shower in the bathroom method with great success eliminating dust. I also use the skinomi sprayer with a tiny drop of dawn to wet.

Pixel XL back glass screen protector found on Amazon
I found a back tempered glass screen protector for the glass on the back top half of the Pixel XL. It is sold in combination with the front tempered glass screen protector as well. You cannot buy it separately. It's $12.99 i believe and ships in 2 days via Amazon Prime. I just ordered mine. When I get it, I'll install it and post a pic of it here.
FYI: Clicking the link will not take you to the product on Amazon. I do not have enough posts here on XDA to post links. Copy and paste the link text below and replace the "(dot)" with a real dot and/or period, no spaces obviously.

Yes. They have Speck case in black, Incipio dual protection in black, clear Incipio hard case and Tech21 in black.

Did you see if they had the glass screen protectors as well? Was thinking about hitting the local Verizon store after work.
I need to go to the local VZW store to pick up one of these on my friends manger discount...
https://www.verizonwireless.com/accessories/belkin-usb-c-charger-with-usb-c-cable/
Yea my local Verizon had a about 5 of them including a clear speck and otterbox. They also had tempered for the pixel xl but it doesn't even cover the entire lcd screen which made it look very weird with the screen on.
Edit: we have 2 Verizon stores less than 1 mile away from each other but one is a privately owned one and they didn't have anything but corporate is where they had everything.
And all are super expensive
