Just ordered a 6x, do someone know something about a good tempered glass screen protector?
Is the screen flat or curved on the edges?
flat protector https://www.amazon.co.uk/Protector-APICI-Tempered-Hardness-Anti-fingerprint/dp/B01MG9MLRJ
Thank you, I also found some by googling, I ask about something someone tried.

Mine came with some kind of screen protector already stuck on the screen. Also seems to be fairly stubborn to remove, did anyone else's come delivered with it?
Would prefer to have a tempered one, but the one currently on there seems to be made of glass already.

It's probably a plastic PET screen protector, which has really strong glue on it. I doubt Honor would supply their devices with a tempered glass screen protector straight out the box.
My must arrive on Monday, I hope that there will be a protection like on yours..
Edit:
Arrived today and there is a sort of hard protection on the display, not glass but probably policarbonate, invisible.

Ordered a tempered glass screen protector from nilkin.org, but after paying i noticed the payment going to some russian name, but nilkin is asian as far as i know.
Also, some reviews on google classify this website as a fake / scam.
So for now, avoid nilkin.org.
The official website doesnt list any honor 6x support, so i'll have to wait and see if what gets delivered actually fits, if it even arrives/was sent at all.
i bought the mr shield
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M74TFP9/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
didnt like it at all.
if you notice the plastic one that the phone came with it does not cover the screen completely { about 1mm on each side }.
mr shield is exactly the same. makes the phone look bad. im returning this and waiting for someone to make the screen protector correctly

mine had tempered glass on it already..so no issue faced for this
If you're talking about the screen protector from the factory, it's not glass, just a plastic. It's a finger print magnet for sure too. I ordered one of the newer styles that just came on Amazon. Will update with my thoughts when I comes in in a day or so.

Mine was gifted by Huawei in China and had tempered glass.
Does it leave big gaps around the edges or is it more of a full edge style?

More gaps at edges
Got this one in the mail today: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MU7Y0EG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_40KIyb6NMD2N9
I wanted to try a more edge to edge one and this one is really close. But you do get the raised edges as the curved glass starts. I will see how much it collects dust and probably remove it. It's my wife's phone so she probably won't like it.

Update:
The screenprotector just came in and is the correct one. Unfortunately the same problem persist with the 2.5d glass, the protector doesn't go edge to edge.
So, nillkin.org seems to be legit (enough) to order from. The screen protector box just used a variation on the name 'honor 6x', namely 'Huawei Mate 9 Lite GR5 2017', which is apparently the same phone .
Do not buy
DO NOT BUY.
just got this one from amazon today
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MR65JJD/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
it broke during installation, the slightest movement destroys it. the material is not really good at all.
i have a TUDIA Slim-Fit HEAVY DUTY case and the protector and there is a small gap between the case and the screen protector.
if the installation would have been successful, doubt it would last more than a day .
gotta keep looking
another do not buy...
the toshion screen protector.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M2BM9H4/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
does not even cover the screen , box reads 6x but i dont think its for a 6x or they really messed up their measurements
use this from amazon.in

Those pics are fake though. That's not a note 9 unfortunately so hopefully you received the correct item. Please post pics or a video of your protector on your device when you receive it.

Sounds promising. I like to try a full adhesive one like that someday on mine. Hopefully the gaps on the sides won't be too large on this?
I'm currently using an edge only adhesive glass protector, which covers most of the screen and is case friendly. With that I mean , once the case is on you cannot see gaps on either sides.
Downsides are the black OLED screen looks grey for some reason with the one I'm using . Example with the screen turned off the n9 looks black, but with the screen protector I'm using it looks grey.
For that price, I'd rather get the whitestone. Just me personally.
looks good, damn expansive too, but will it work??
i tried some of these back then for the note 8.
they all lift at edge of both side and the bubbles keep coming back. they just not sticking good enough.
only in my experience, i never trusted these false result product anymore until they proven by many reputable xda members and you-tube reviewers.
good-luck with you purchase.
please report back if they are legit.

I've had bad experiences with the dome glass screen protectors before. No matter what I do there's always glue around the edges that pickup dust which is unacceptable for a screen protector that expensive.
I just hope this screen protector turns out well and will report back to you guys when I receive it and install it.

I have the whitestone on my S9+, once you wipe the glue off the edges, there's no dust issues. Granted, I have mine in a case (simple TPU) as well.

I’ve come across 2 articles now that screen protectors will not work on S10 series. Last week a case maker brand tested their screen protector on actual S10 phones, it doesn't work due to ultrasonic fingerprint sensor. I wonder that how other leading brands like GadgetShieldz, Dbrand, Rhinoshield are gonna make screen protectors that works on S10 series. Eagerly waiting for the launch event to see that if Samsung has any solution for this.
Has any brand come up with any solutions? How is Samsung going to solve this??
***************Edit**************
It seems, as of now, only wet application screen protectors like Gadgetshieldz and UV tempered glass like whitestone dome would work with the S10 and S10+. I have also seen Tempered Glass with holes and thin films around the fingerprint area which looks insanely horrible.
With the whitestone costing a whooping 70US$ for the 2 pack and not available until 3/22 (in fact not available for shipping outside US at all), I have ordered the Gadgetshieldz screen + body protector combo for like 10$ from here **************************** and now looking for a cheap bumper.
That would complete my protection needs for now and will see how performance of other screen protectors pan out mean while.

I haven't heard it will have a hole in it? I saw a picture of one with a hole in it and it was ugly and I think not true. I know we have to wait and see but I just called this Zagg Kiosk at the mall and she said she has the Invisisheild one for the S 10 plus already no glass ones yet I said oh so it's going to work with the Ultra Sonic Sensor and she said I guess so. So I don't know but if It didn't work they would give you a refund. Everyone is saying Whitestone will be the only one to have a tempered glass one that will work so we will have to wait and see.

Apparently the whitestone dome will work with the onscreen fingerprint reader.
Theres no air gap with it like the usual screen protectors on curved screens
Well if it's the only one that will work I'm getting it. And since it's a 2 pack my husband will use the other He hasn't had one on his Note 8 1st phone without one but I told him cause of this fingerprint scanner he probably should use one. I hope we get them on good It would be nice if one was already on the phone.

Ive had whitestone dome glass on my s7 edge, S8 plus, S9 plus and now on my Note 9.
They have always worked well, I doubt ill get an S10 but if I do I'd use whitestone again for sure

Have you ever used the Whitestone dome protectors? The two pack is because the first one is practice, lol. I had to get three before I got it correct on my note 9 with no bubbles. I'm a little slow so I figure most can do it by the second try. These buggers are expensive too.

Can Whitestone be replaced or is it glue
i'm reading the spec on canada's koodoo website and also bestbuy canada.. it saids it comes preinstalled with a screen protector?? so do i need to order another? coz i ordered the whitestone ones.. china have plenty of knock off screen protector that will work too as long as it's the ones that is bonded with UV glue
it's not really glue. it's an adhesive and NOT permanent, the protector can be removed.

It seems the Whitestone one will work since that's the first thing you see on their site now. https://www.whitestonedome.com/
I've also heard that glass protectors aren't going to work with this phone. I usually buy mine from amfilm, so I emailed them yesterday to see if they would have any glass for the S10 stuff. Here's the reply I got:
Hello!
Thank you for your question. At the moment, we are offering a Plastic Film called Elastic Skin (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B07NS6FC2Q) that will work with the Ultrasonic Fingerprint Sensor. We are still in development of other glass options, but are working fervently to produce a glass protector that will work with the S10. Please feel free to check back in, and to keep any eye out for our future releases on Amazon.
Thanks!

So I guess it's the old school PET films for now... amFilm has always been pretty high quality, so I'll just keep watch for new stuff. I just don't want to shell out $50 for a screen protector from Dome - seems a little superfluous.
See the following:

I'm assuming this is a film protector not tempered glass. Can you link the product. Thanks
Plenty of tempered glass protectors on Ebay but they all seem to have black edging on that covers some of the vewable screen area.
EDIT: Have now found some full tempered glass ones on Amazon. They even come with a case/template that clips over the top of the phone so you get perfect placement on the phone with the screen protector every time.
Think it was around £7 and came as a pack of 3 in a fancy presentation box
First time ive ever seen one like this. Brilliant idea and works a treat.
can you give the link pls.

Bought a set of ESR brand on Amazon that I have used on other phones with good results... Fit great and work well, except that they are tempered glass and they block the fingerprint scanner, it being sonic rather than optical.
What are people using with this phone?
Hope you are enjoying your phone as much as I am! I just did a review of the Phantomskinz shield. The S pen and the fingerprint sensor works flawlessly with this skin. Good luck!

Does it work? The ones that I bought made the same claim, but they didnt work with the scanner.
Now it turns out I have to get my phone replaced. Set my phone down, in its case, on my hot tub. Didn't drop it or toss it, but laid it down, and apparently the stacked stone that surrounds the hot tub... the back laid down on the point of a small pebble and cracked the glass that covers the camera array. Couldn't believe how easily it cracked... had to put in an insurance claim and pay the $250 deductible and ordered up several tempered glass protectors for the camera area...
GESMA for Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Screen Protector and Camera Protector
I've found the GESMA for Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Screen Protector and Camera Protector to handle fingerprint detection very well. The only difference from naked is that I have to apply just a touch more pressure on the screen to get an accurate read. It comes with 3 screen protectors and two camera protectors. All 0.15mm tempered glass and $14 on Amazon.
None of the ones I have tried work, they all suck. The one that I tried that the finger would scan through was not glass, and it made the screen blurry.
Olixar sucks... It wouldn't read the finger despite having the dedicated spot for it, and also, you can SEE the part designated for the fingerprint scanner... It doesn't cover completely transparent in that circle and you can visually see it when looking at the screen. Looks horrible... threw it in the trash...
Tried 4 brands now, and none of them work right, or look good... just gonna have to leave it uncovered and use the tempered glass ones on the fragile camera array...
Mobileoutfitter Matte Skin
I use the mobile outfitter Matte Skin on my Note 20 Ultra and its an awesome experience.
1. Its almost like paper like when you write with the S-Pen good texture feel to the writing experience
2. Fingerprint works well no misfit on it.
Always use UV tempered glass.. it works like charm.
And after curing with the uv light, press the FP area for 1 min. Re-register the FP. Done

I gave up. After wasting $100 on 4 or 5 different brand screen protectors... None of them worked... The TPU one would register the finger, but the pen would leave marks on it... That was a Spigen made one...
The tempered glass ones, none of them worked with the fingerprint scanner, which I could have simply disabled and used a pattern or face unlock, but they had ab awful circle on them where the scanner goes that you can clearly see when looking at the screen... Horrible design.
Wish Samsung would just put the scanner on the back like the Pixel does...

So sorry to hear that. Did you buy the UV or? Cause really the UV tempered glass is super easy to install and it works well on mine.
For the design wise, it's a matter of preference. I don't mind the circular face unlock.

Been difficult finding alternatives to white dome in the US. I installed this one today and works well. No issue with fingerprint and case friendly with my spigen case. Spen works well with it. Install is more challenging as you don't have trays.
