I personally wouldn't waste my money on another zagg screen protector. They make a good product, just not worth $20-25 each. I have used their warranty and it's worth the $3 for the shipping for a replacement, no hassles getting a replacement either. But the hd claims to be more clear, no orange peel. I got one for my s3 and it had orange peel, even the replacement had the peel effect.
I went with the tech armor for $22.95 on amazon w/2 day shipping, I love my prime membership. You can't go wrong. It's crystal clear, no bubbles and hasn't scratched yet. I've had mine since verizon released the s4. Glass screen protectors are the way to go. Here's a link to the one I got. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CD0I8EK/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 There are a bunch of glass screen protectors out there, just search the forum. I haven't had any issues with fit with any case I've tried.
How hard are the glass ones to apply?
Zagg is horrible in my opinion. The texture is very artificial. I prefer a glass feel. I'd recommend a glass protector.

I have put on many film screen protectors and find them pretty easy, but I've done plenty of graphics on cars. Wet applications are much easier to work with and get right.
The glass protectors I find are even easier. The tech armor went on with no liquid if I remember right. It was very easy. It just takes patience. The one thing I really liked about the tech armor glass protectors was the little suction cup holder it came with. Made easy for getting the alignment just right. Just put some pressure in the middle of the screen and work your way out.
i was gonna buy a glass one, but i got the zagg instead simply because i was at bestbuy and had a gift card, it looks fine after a day or so it settles in so to say, and it seems to get more clearer as the days go bye, of course im used to the cheap one in the defender so anything would look better then that. But i agree with others and say get a glass one if you don't need it right at this moment.
Yeah, zagg are really draggy, put one on the back of you s4 and you will never drop it again
I hear good thinks about Skinomi screen protectors.

Not really. I dont see why everyone says this. Unless they apply an unnecessary amount of pressure when sliding their finger on the screen. I barely have to touch my screen on my s4 for it to register

Hi to all,
I'm considering buying something that can best protect my S4 display. What can you advise me against accidental falls or blows to the display?
What's best choice?
Cover?
Tempered display films?
Bumper?
Many thanks

Personally-and others may disagree- I have glass screen protector from mime. Price is steep, but with 50% off, no hassle warranty from mime, it was worth it. Mind you, I got three replacements because I dropped my phone on concrete, then accidently dropped ipad on my phone. Both cases resulted in glass protector shattering, but the screen itself is completely fine.
On top of that, I use otterbox commuter when I go mt climbing, or camping.

Mmm ok...MIME at the moment cost 24$
Is the MIME case friendly? I have the spigen case so a screen protector needs to have minimal coverage to make room for the case lip.

If you have a spigen case, buy a spigen tempered glass protector. They all are all comparable with each other as long as they are spigen brand. Personally I had a mime feather lite tempered glass protector and it worked great. They're quite thin, but thin enough to where it will crack if flexed too much during installation. I recommend a spigen glassTr protector. They're ultra durable and don't diminish the capability of the screen at all. Well worth the price.
As far as cases go, I'm using a spigen neo hybrid. I've dropped my phone from about six feet up a few times now, and the case has protected the phone perfectly. Its also fairly thin so it doesn't add a very much bulk at all. As far heavy protection goes, otter box ultimately has superior protection.

I have been using the spigen crystal series screen protectors ( $8 for 3) and the neo hybrid case. Seems to protect pretty well.

$24, but amazing customer service, and 50% discount on future replacements in case protector shatters.
You get what you pay for.. eBay has cheaper ones, but doesn't have the same quality, nor after sales support.

With mime, there is small space around the edges, for cases with curling lips.
I have spigen neo hybrid, and ultra thin case. Additionally, otterbox commuter and samsung official case (not sview nor flip cover). And I can say all the cases fit without a problem.
Otterbox or something similar. If you can get a discount even better, but the price is worth the protection these type of cases provide.

Just make sure you buy it from them directly (their Amazon or Ebay outlet).
Buy from *ANYWHERE ELSE* and they do not support you. Even if it can be verified that the product is authentic.
This is egregious and I will never buy their product again.

This is why I didn't feel bad buying a knockoff slimarmor s-view. At least I know I'm not getting no customer service and the price reflects that. Spigen gets the benefit of claiming awesome customer service, but only for a select group who buy through 2 options when multiple others are available. It's like samsung voiding your warranty because you bought your phone from AT&T and not verizon or sprint.

Mime doesn't sell any cases.
This SPIGEN SGP Premium Tempered Glass Screen Protector GLAS.t NANO SLIM protected my screen like a champ when it fell, screen first, from aprox. 5 feet.
I like the MIME better and is what i have. I also have the Neo Hybrid and the slim armor cases from Spigen, I like the MIME Ghost glass best for 2 reasons.
first, The hardness rating is a 9H and the Spigen is an 8H rating so MIME is harder to scratch technically.
Second, The MIME is a .32mm thickness compared to Spigen's .40mm. I like this because with the very thin case edges the MIME still is recessed so if/when you put the phone face down it isn't resting on the glass protector.
1 more thing. MIME (others likely do too) has a thin layer of coating to resist finger prints. Solvents like windex and such will break that down. Use something for cleaning LCD and you will be better off. My first MIME Ghost Glass i used windex all the time and my finger prints were getting bad on it (way easier) and my 2nd one i only use the actual screen cleaner stuff and after 3 or 4 months it's still hard to get it all mucked up with prints.
does anybody have any experience with the Spigen Slim Armor View? i wanna get one of these along with a nano screen protector from Spigen as well, but i want to know what is my best choice between the Spigen cases

This is what I use and I love it. Completely cannot tell it's there and 100% feels like the bare screen since it is of course glass just like the bare screen.

Unrelated to the thread topic, but I have one in white and love it. I would suggest going through the slim view armor thread and finding a reputable knockoff dealer and getting it from there. Spigen will not replace it most times when it fails, even if you order it through an 'official' store and the hinges on the official case sometimes break.
I paid $15 for my knockoff and after 6 months of use on a construction site its still like new aside from the scratches. A glass screen protector does make it harder to press the home button to light up the s-view display, but that's a function of the screen protector thickness, not the case. With an aluminum home button sticker it goes back to a very light press.
I also run it with an official spigen glass.tr protector (Picked it up for $20, otherwise I wouldn't buy it).
Oh I complained about Spigen, but did not indicate what I use.
I use a glass screen protector. Glass all the way.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/171172132327?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
They show up fast and only cost $9 or so. They are a little thicker than the Spigen Nano but for me it doesn't matter.
It definitely doesn't matter at $9.
Spigen tempered glass screen protector all the way.
Serious they are really just the best. Not only in terms of protection, it's also super slim and ultra clear.
anti reflexion screen protector, best!
Hey guys, ive never bought a tempered glass screen protector, and im wondering how case friendly they are? Im due for my upgrade on monday so id like to get one on order as long as its G2G with the bodyglove dropsuit rugged series case. Thanks
hi,
I did not have any problem but the case I use is one you find in the att store. it's not a 'slim' case by any stretch its a very thickish rubbery type thing for maxiumum protection. you could probably drop kick the phone and not even phase it.
the temperd glass with the case I'm using is no problem -- both I got in the att store when upgraded. my advice if you are shopping around online is to find people who use the case you do and ask them

I have 2 different versions of the Spigen and love the tempered glass I got from Luvvitt and Amazon
I have a Zagg Glass on mine and it fits fine into the Otterbox Defender.
I recommend Nillkin, the glass has beveled edges which will slide on the object that makes contact with the glass' edges and therefore prevent movement pressure. If you decided to go for another brand, I suggest you also look for beveled edges.
to be honest id say it fits most of the cases.. only bumpers might have some problems
Same here as Taz420nj, Zagg Glass and a Otterbox Defender case. I should have my Trident Kraken case this coming Tuesday. Best of both worlds as far as protection goes.

I have this one from Cybertech. It claims to be 0.15mm thick. It is very thin so that seems possible. It is unscathed after a month.
They are very inexpensive ($6.49 w/free shipping) so I may order 2-3 more.
It hasn't interfered with any of my cases. My daily case is a Caseology but I have a few others that I sometimes use..
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?

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? :

$19.95

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 just purchased the Spigen case on Amazon and saw that loads of people complained about screen protectors peeling/ not fitting correctly with the case and so I was wondering if there are any screen protectors, film or glass that work with this case? I don't really wanna go through the trial and error with screen protectors that I went through with my previous V30, mainly because it was expensive and time consuming so I figured, seeing as how this phone has been out for a while, does anyone use this case with a screen protector and if so, which one?
I'd appreciate any help.
Whitestone Dome is AWESOME!!
UPDATE! I dropped my phone from about 3 feet the other day onto my fake wood floor. Mind you, I've never cracked a screen, but now I have a very small ding on the top upper left corner right next to the case. It's very small, and barely noticeable with the screen on. Fortunately I almost never take the Supcase off, hopefully it will stay small. However with this I'm much less impressed with WD.
I am looking for the same. Please do advice.
