Any good screen protector (case friendly?) :( - Essential Phone Accessories

Just bought the phone, ordered a case and a screen protector
Just to found that I had to use one or another because when I put the pone in the case, the screen glass just peels off...

I don't think olive oil is a big deal... Just apply a generous amount and it'll stick for a while. I'm up to a month I think and it still looks brand new. Yes it's case friendly. I have a heavy duty car and slim case. Both don't mess with the screen at all

I couldn't stand the white Halo around the edges with my previous screen protector, so I ordered the Skinomi wet install one. It's not tempered glass, but more like a thick film. Very happy with the results. There are no bubbles and no air around the edges. You can't even tell there is a screen protector on the phone. Now I know it won't protect the screen in a hard fall, but it will definitely prevent scratches. Goes really well with my thin Tudia case.

Why didnt you apply oil on the tempered one with the halo one?

I'm not a big fan of thick tempered screen protectors in the first place. They don't cover the entire phone like the film ones do. I've never cracked a screen on any of my phones and just need something to protect the screen from scratches.

I use TPU wet application film protection.

Skinomi works fine with my Tudia GLOST

Armorsuit; did I install this correctly?

Hey I received my HTC One X in the mail and put on the Armorsuit screen protector, but it severely interferes with the screen. When the screen is on, adhesive seems to be visible and it makes the picture look bad and really grainy. Did I do this wrong or does it just need time to dry out?

What screen protectors do you recommend over this one?
That is normal for these protectors... you have to give it time to dry and it'll look normal.
It should clear up in about 24-48 hours or so, it will be fine.
Yeah it did clear up! Just took several hours. Anyway I do recommend armor suit over zagg. There is no orange peel effect. It's smooth as butter.

I have a Captivate and have never used a screen protector. My One X hasn't arrived yet, but as it also has gorilla glass I don't plan to put a protector on it. I do plan on encasing it in a Defender or Seidio Active, which should keep the screen well away from any surfaces the phone might rest on.
Hey OP, is this a matte protector or just glossy? Also, does it show oil from the hands? And what is the texture? Thanks

It's not matte, it's glossy. Yes it does show oil and smudges from hands. The texture is very smooth. It's not a bad deal for $10. I spent $28 on getting a ZAGG screen protector installed at a mall kiosk and I think that was too steep.
If anyone's interested in purchasing, I got it from Amazon.

Tempered Glass for s4 pros and cons over Film protectors?

What the pros and cons of tempered glass screen protector vs a Film screen protector?
My concern about the Tempered glass is that :
--it's adhesive is only on the bezel area and since sgs4 have smaller bezel so it might get detached easily
--Tempered Glass might scratch the glass beneath it
--If adhesive of the Tempered glass became less sticky Dust might accumulate inside
So can you tell me your experience with tempered glass screen protector? I really want to hear from someone who used this screen protector for long time and not on these reviews on youtube since they only used it on the time they review it.
And also does anyone tried using combination of Film and T.glass protectors?
i never bothered because they're so expensive and i screw up the screen anyways so the film type are more easily replaceable
ill probably end up buying 2 or 3 cases and end up using only screen protectors in most situations lol.
to me i rarely drop my phone but i have trouble keeping it out of my pocket with my keys and change, other things. ive been pretty good about it but not perfect.
First off my only problem with tempered glass on my S3 was that it messed with screen responsiveness... Now the ones for the S4 are mostly half the thickness of last years so that should help that problem a lot. The iLoome protector fort the S4 is fully clear and I assume it has adhesive over the entire surface. The sense of mind you get with glass is great. Plus the feel of glass is much better than that of other screen protectors. If you can find one that doesn't take away from screen sensitivity than i'd say it's definitely worth it if you care about your phone.

I have a "Flexible Glass Screen Protector" on my S3 that has adhesive all across the back. I have only removed it once in the couple month's that I've had it. I have not encountered any dust getting between the two pieces of glass. The adhesion has not deteriorated any either. I am very happy with it and I really am hoping I will be able to locate one for my S4. The only draw back that I have found is that the thicker protector limits the cases you can use. My favorite cover before I got the protector was the Seidio Surface case and it no longer can be used. I also like my Otterbox Defender case and I was able to "squeeze" it on after I removed the plastic protector that came on the cover. It's a tight fit, but it does work.

It isn't 6mm thick, that would be +70% the thickness of the entire phone! lol
Maybe 0.6mm, that would still be very thick for a screen protector.
Spigen film is the way to go... $14 for two protectors and easy to install...
Just watched a review of the Spigen Glas.tR and it is also CLEAR!
Sent from my GS3
I had a glass protector on my GS3 (XGear Spectre, I think) and it worked fine - no loss of sensitivity. It did allow some tiny dust in, but it was easy to lift and wipe it out the couple of times it happened over 8 months. And the week before my S4 came in, I managed to drop the S3 on its face...the screen protector cracked, and the phone is still perfect. Looking at the Spigen one next week just because of that.

Okay, I found the ad for the flexible glass protector. I ordered it on eBay, this one is very similar even though it is for the Note 2: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Gal...193&pid=100040&prg=1011&rk=1&sd=230950051927&
I love this screen protector and am hoping that I will be able to get one for the new S4.
---------- Post added at 12:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:08 PM ----------
I also had the one everyone was talking about at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1920757
But, like someone said previously, it had adhesive only on the outside edges and dust or dirt could get underneath the protector.
I ended up breaking it on the corner when I removed it to clean beneath it.
That does look like a nice one.
I bought the Spigen Slim Glass screen protector and I am 100% satisified. Zero less in screen sensitivity and it feels smooth as, well, glass

That's awesome. Which one did you get? .TR or .T? I didn't like the one for the s3 but apparently this one is better as the adhesive is all over.

Spigen GLAS.t SLIM = non-rounded borders - (0.23mm) - thinner
Spigen GLAS.tR SLIM = rounded borders (0.4mm)
You're correct the t is the thinner material. Either way it feels great and installs fairly easily.
I had the glas for the s2, I LOVED(easy to clean the screen of finger oils) it, however, it attracted dust underneath the screen protector due to adhesive being only at the edges, I took it off after a couple of months. With the full adhesive, i will definitely buy again for my soon to arrive S4. Especially since I just dropped my s2 face down on the ground and broke the screen a couple weeks back (without case), the glas would serve as a shield.

[Q] Xtreme Guard Screen Protector.

Hello.
I ordered the XtremeGuard screen protector and I noticed they don't give any soupy water or something.
I saw here and in Youtube that I can make soupy water (of course :laugh by myself but I found a Zagg spray to apply their screen protector.
Can I use this Zagg spray to install the XtremeGuard?
Thanks!

yes you can use the Zagg spray for application. I have it on my Nexus. It ok but it does scratch easy even though these are not suppossed to. It does cover the whole screen though which is nice

[Q] Collreall Tempered Glass Full Cover

Has anyone tried out this Coolreall tempered glass screen protector? Appears that its edge to edge like the Nillkin protectors. Ordered one, should be here in the next couple days.

I like how it says explosion proof, I am sure a grenade would destroy the screen protector and the phone.

I think they just mean that the glass shards won't go everywhere if the glass breaks. it will stay intact. No flying shards etc.
looks really cool. please post pics after you get it and let us know how you like it

would be interested to see the results as well.
Unfortunately, they sent me the wrong color. I was asking for black instead of gold. I'm now trying to figure out if it's worth the hassle in exchanging.
My Coolreal tempered glass screen protector arrived today from Amazon. The quality looks really good, and it will definitely cover the entire screen. My only concern is that it appears the adhesive is only on the gold border and not the center of the screen. Haven't put it on my wife's S6 yet.
UTLK Galaxy S6 Screen Protector HD Clear Tempered Glass
I couldn't wait for the others to test these, so I bought the white version from UTLK on amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00WOA5HM0?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00
Just installed it and it looks interesting, I mean its different from other glass protectors I have used before on my phones. but this definitely covers the whole screen and bezel, there is a little haloing as you see in the pics but they are disappearing. There screen protector quality attracts a bit of smudging which is not common in high quality glass. Overall I think its a good option at the price.
I installed one on my wife's phone last night. Results were good, some slight haloing around the edges as well. Hopefully they will disappear.

Thanks for the photos and mine has some haloing too. Going to wait a few days and might try out the UTLK brand if the haloing does not go away.
I got that one from Amazon an like the others there was a little haloing but I had to remove it as my tech21 case was pushing the protector off every time I press a side button... now I'm using those smaller protectors but I think I will end up with a plastic one... (I like my case ok?! heheheh)

i had the same exact problem with the Spigen hybrid case. i decided to send back the case and hope that the Diztronic case doesn't have the same issue as i really like the Collreall protector.

The one I removed had adhesive on the screen. No problems with touch.

Ah, OK I wasn't sure these had adhesive on the screen or not, thought that maybe had something to do with the halo. Oh well.

I'm using the ringke slim case so no it wasn't pushing the glass but I can imagine any other case would.

Finally found a full glass screen protector

Ordered this off eBay and its great. Covers the whole glass on the phone and does NOT have the halo effect around the glass but only near the home button which isn't much. The borders are black to possibly hide the halo, and or parts of the glass that isn't touching the screen itself. Pictures were taken on a Nexus 5 so you know where I'm getting at.

Here are the pictures. I'll post the eBay link in just a bit.
Is that the Araree brand one?
I guess its REMAX, but I don't know why OP didn't gave the link when he opened this thread.

Just added the link. This one doesn't seem to have a brand but they may all come from the same factory with different branding.
hii .. how does the phone fit in a case ? does the edges of the screen protector get pushed by the case ?
Is that really full cover? edge cover?
It does cover edges but i would like to see one on gold s6. Also to OP, how is around home button now?
The glass covers the entire front of the phone. The camera, proximity sensor and wraps around the home button. I haven't tested it with other cases besides the ringke slim case and it is just fine. I'm guessing it should be fine with others as well. There is no portion of the front glass exposed with this on except for this home button and the ear speaker.

Does the glass stick all the way to the edges? Or is it more like my Nillkin Glass protection is?
Along the entire phones edges the glass protection will not stick all the way. It makes it look like ****.
Maybe all glass protection is like this?

Yes, all the way to the edge. It has a black border around the edges so if there is any halo effect, you cannot see it. I've tested it with both the Ringke Fusion and Slim case and it's not pushing the screen protector up. I imagine some cases may lift the protector.
Thanks, just ordered one.
Nillkin has an even cooler tempered glass protector, look here:
Definitely going to check this out in black

I'm wondering if the Spigen Neo Hybrid and/or the Slim Armor/Tough Armor would push up this all-around protector.
How much of a lip does the Ringke Fusion/Slim have?
Great just what i was looking for!

My guess is this will get pushed up just as much as the other full cover edge to edge screen protectors from Nikllin, UTLK, & Collreall, since it still goes to the edge of the phone. I cannot imagine this one is any thinner than the others to not cause problems.
For the Spigen Neo Hybrid, I think you are stuck with the screen protectors that only cover the screen and not to the edge, or the PET protectors.
Blooody marvellous!!

My guess as well. It does wrap all around the phone and the glass is edge to edge unlike others. It may lift with other protectors who have a lip around the screen. Its a great protector and wanted to share with everyone here since we are all looking for one that covers the whole front glass and this is it.
