Which one do you recommend for the S10e? Right now I'm still using the default protector which was applied by Samsung, but I don't really like it.
i ordered one on ebay but i have a feeling it's flat not edge to edge full cover for 10e. They use generic photoshopped stock photo for all 3 models and claim it's curved. I think 10e has 2.5D edge. Not completely flat. I'm also using the garbage thin film they included. For $800 scumsung could include high quality glass and case. I also ordered glass for rear cameras. Never seen or used one before. Not sure what to expect.
tried ESR tempered glass and MP mall tempered glass from amazon
both do not stick on side, ESR is off by like 0.75 mm because of 2.5D curve of glass, it does not stick on side. so dont waste your money on these two, i am still looking for one may be just a bit smaller than ESR.
temporarily ordering a film protector till i find a tempered glass which fits right.
I'm using the PureGear HD Clear Tempered Glass Screen Protector https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07P7S174H/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_byaHCbZY5Q1N0
It only has adhesive on the edges so there is no bubbles. It is case friendly and is a decent alternative to the whitedome which remains the superior choice for the 2.5D screens.

how is touch sensitivity and does is create rainbow effect like some tempered glass with adhesive on side do?
Keep in mind aftermarket screen protecters (especially glass ones) will have problems with the fingerprint reader.
Im using the samsung one for now until some testing and revising is done
No rainbow effect and if you increase touch sensitivity in the settings it works great. I have no real complaints.
which non-glass protector do you guys recommend?

Why is there a lip or Ridge around perimeter of screen of galaxy s10e
Does anybody know why there is a lip or Ridge around the edges of Galaxy S10e screen it's almost looks like a screen protector has been applied from the factory

Yes, that's exactly what you are seeing. The S10e does indeed have a factory installed plastic screen protector. You can really feel it around the camera as there's a cutout for the camera. I would expect it to scratch rather quickly, plus I don't think it provides nearly as much drop protection as a tempered glass one might.
I'm following along here hoping that there does wind up being an economical tempered glass screen protector that works well and doesn't life at the edges. Seems like this will be similar to my S7, where I was never really able to find something that works and just went naked.
Thank you for the response I've just been so confused with everyone saying the S10 and S10+ have one but not the S10e. I think you're right it is just a polyurethane plastic protector. And just a heads up I tried to apply a tempered glass protector over top of it and it definitely made it hard for the edges to stick.

I had the same confusion. All of the media I've seen say the pre-installed one is only on the S10 and S10+, but if you look around the camera on the S10e, there's clearly a cutout that confirms there is a pre-installed screen protector on there. I'm still not exactly sure how to get it off. I picked around the edges a bit and nothing is coming up easily.
I'm not sure how well the edges of a tempered glass one will stick even if you took off the pre-installed one. I haven't seen any reports of an economical one that works yet. I think I'm going to be in the same boat as I am with my S7 and be forced to go without one.

I ordered an Alinsea glass protector from amazon, sounds like a knock off of a Whitestone from their description. It doesn't have a cut out for the front facing camera, which is great, as a cut out just seems to collect pocket lint. I have not received it yet.

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.

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

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.

Yes, I would like one that only covers actual display part (the 5.7 inch diagonal rectangular part), no more:fingers-crossed: I think it is probably not possible :/
see I'm the total opposite, I can't find one that fits PERFECT and I usually go with BodyGuardz ( I really like the home button spacers and stuff they got nice kits) but ya anywho....so I tried two , one BGDz and the other generic , the generic was awful , the bodyguards was at least bit better fit. SO , what I did was bought a galaxy note 3 glass and it covers it edge to edge. the only issue is the edges could be tapered or rounded a bit but really I'm damn happy with it, total coverage for the full front, I hate cases but an otterbox / similar would have this thing fully encased and protected.

Best one I've found...
I have tried several tempered glass screen protectors on my Note 4. The best I have found are from Spigen. All of the other glass protectors usually left a slight gap on the edges where the display curves, but the Spigen slightly curves with the display and leaves no air gap. I have that in conjunction with the Versus Iron Shield cover; definitely a premium feel. You can get both for less than you just quoted ($45) on Amazon...
Most tempered glass screen protectors for the Note 4 are designed to just cover the display and not the whole front panel.

Most do not even cover the whole display, since there's a slight curve on the edges. I have a great tempered glass protector, and it is slightly narrower than the display. It doesn't bother me, since it works so well. S Pen glides so smoothly with it.

I have a Spigen glass screen protector on my n910v. It is not curved so as to follow the screen, but has air under the outermost 2mm or so on the long sides.
Not questioning your post. They may have changed, and someone buying one based on your recommendation is IMO going to be disappointed.
Bright side: the surface is nice - nicer than the original glass (easier finger glide, pen glide and seems to be more oleophobic - guess I have greasy ears or something )
May I know which tempered glass screen protector I should order from eBay or Amazon.ca which will attract less finger print?
There are not any really good ones because of the curved screen. You either are going to have it peel a bit on the edges or the screen protector will be cut well short of the sides.
I went with this film one and although I wanted glass I am happy with it

This is the one I am using after trying several different tempered glass. It's not edge to edge but since it so thin you can barely see the gap. The best part is no halo effect and it's super responsive.

Amazon Mr Shield For Huawei Mate 9
I have the newest Nillkin and it is a bit oversized, which leaves a halo around the edges. Not bad when the screen is on, but very noticeable when the screen is dark. That being said, it did save my bacon this morning. I dropped my phone from about 4 foot up(bobbled the catch) straight onto concrete... it landed on a corner and fell flat on the face. The screen protector did it's job and saved the display. The protector now has a very nice diagonal crack running the entire width, but it still works. Unfortunately, it means I need to buy a new one as Nillkin only provides one in the package. So it is off to Amazon to order my old standby, the SuperShieldz

It's a bit oversized, so it covers the edges, and comes with a liquid that fills the ait bubbles.
You don't really see them anymore.
None of the tempered glass I bought fits to the mate 9. So I took " hydrogel" screen protector on aliexpress and it fits perfect !

Until they come up with a new and improved version, assume all are bad.
I've tried two on Amazon and got the exact same results.

That's the only decent screen protector that fits right now. There's also a matte finish one. It's not tempered glass, but you get 8. The fit is much better than all of the tempered glass ones on Amazon. It's not 100% perfect as tiny bit of the edge don't stick but you won't notice from the distance unlike the current tempered glass.

If any part of a screen protector doesn't stick then all manner of stuff will get stuck in between. For those w/ colored borders, that's not much of an issue but completely clear ones will eventually show all the dust and stuff on it.

The essential screen isn't flat. I don't see a viable glass protector coming. It'd have to be super thin with a really strong adhesive to make it stick to the sides.

Actually much like the iPhone, it's flat until you get to the edge.
If the current round of protectors was 2mm smaller they would fit.
But for me, it doesn't matter.
I'm returning the phone.
There's still a thin bezel on the side that can handle adhesive on it so if they release one with black borders, I'd get it as the black borders won't show the halo effect even if it's not completely stuck on the outer edges. That's what I have on my iPhones. The display area is glass while the borders are plastic so they flex more.

Jus wait for the accessories to start coming out. Sounds like essential is open to 3rd parties making cases and screen protectors... So just got to hold on...this is what it sounded like from the reddit AMA
I have a Sopi 3M matte skin on the back and it helps with the grip a little but not by much... definitely helps w/ the fingerprints though... lol since it's matte, there can be visible smudges from time to time depending on how dirty/sweaty your paws are... I did read the AMA and they should've worked w/ case manufacturers long before release. I understand they want to keep it close to their vest until release (as to not tip off the competition) but they didn't ship the phone until much later than they said they would so in that time they could've sent out the outside schematics/dimensions to case manufacturers. No excuse!
The situation is the same for any devices that have curved edges. I'm not sure why companies just don't apply adhesive to the whole screen protector. A solution is using UV glue on a glass screen protector that isn't fully covered with adhesive. I've used the Whitedome on my Galaxy S8+ and it works really well. You should be able to buy the UV glue and UV lamp from Amazon and apply it to any glass screen protector. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KZmF8uQESI
So after seeing bad reviews of countless glass screen protectors, I have finally stumbled upon one that is actually fantastic and covers the entire display.

One benefit of this screen protector is that it is truly edge to edge, leaving about 0.75mm of space on each edge of the glass while simultaneously not cutting out any part of the display. The other benefit is that it has adhesive throughout the entire glass including the edges so no issues with the rainbow halo effect. The oleophobic coating on it is also superb. It feels EXACTLY like the original display, most glass screen protectors skimp out on this which leads them to feel a bit sticky but this one glides like the original display under it.
I installed it in under 3 minutes perfectly and there are absolutely no bubbles and the singular camera cutout is perfectly made in the correct spot. Hands down the best glass screen protector I've had for any smarthphone.
Thanks for the tip. I've ordered one on AliExpress from the same brand, costs only 5 usd
Using one for one month, just perfect and easy to apply. Very good quality and i have tried many screen protectors for mix 2 but none was as good as this one.

GREAT! Thanks for answer!
Hey.
I use my phone since early 2018 now.
After a few different screen protectors i gave up and use it without protector.
The phone is like a new one. I think the glass is very good and no protector is needed.
The display is very smooth to tap without one scratch on it.
Use it with full cover/case with magnetic closer.
I managed to get some hair-like fine scratches. I think your full cover helps a lot
I just shattered my ESR protector, you will never guess how. While pulling the phone out of my pocket, I somehow hooked the corner of my glass, right where the front camera is located ( here: https://imgur.com/F5Crawg ) with some loose thread in my pocket They should just make a round cutout :\
Just put mine on this morning, fits really well but 3 areas have a speck of dust under them, I put it on after getting out of the shower as the mist in the air normally keeps the dust away but not this time.
Got the esr case as well which is ok for the price.
Got them from the ESR store on AliExpress.

Ruined 2 glass protector with that idiotic cut

Best screen protector I've ever had, and I think I've tried them all. Full glue so no weird effects, no dot matrix, perfect cut and perfect fit with the supplied tool. I'm highly impressed.
Tbh I can't understand why we need a camera cut out, just make a circular clear area.

So after seeing bad reviews of countless glass screen protectors, I have finally stumbled upon one that is actually fantastic and covers the entire display.

There is a white frame and black frame available. Which one did you choose? . . . and is there a case that would be most compatible with this rounded edge protector?
ESR
Well, ESR glasss has the best oleofobic coating and clearness. No rainbow efect too, it has gule on the whole surface. Just that nowel plastic frame needs some practice to get use to it. There are no gaps between it and the glass on all sides , when install. The glue is really strong. I am siprised that somebody managed to stisck something between glass and screen.
My ESR protector died after a couple months of use. First some scratches appeared (the protector is softer than the screen) and on one of those scratches (a deeper one on the edge) the protector cracked. Removal was not that easy as the force required to pull it of will result in a shattered protector everywhere so expect lots of glass dust. I've ordered a new one together with a ESR case (that fits lovely too). These things are so cheap anyway that I don't mind going through a couple of them each year.
Just got the ESR case and screen protector. Thanks for the recommendation, this screen protector feels and looks like there is no protector at all, no more smudges over the original screen. The perfect application from the bracket and adhesive across the entire protector makes it the best one I've used, after giving up on covering my mix 2 after 3-4 different protectors giving neuton rings and immediately thrown out. I have probably dropped my mix 2 on the pavement 7 or 8 times in the last year getting out of my car, and only got a tiny crack on the bottom bezel corner of the screen. Since the bottom bezel on the ESR protector is black my phone looks undamaged now.
The ESR case is nearly as good as the one in the box. I do notice it's slightly thicker than the case in the box, and the added bottom protection makes the phone slightly longer, but it's overall an exceptional fit.
I got mine from taobao directly.

3-protector for 39 CNY, with a free silicon case (very ****ty).
This protector have soft edges to fit the curved screen edge, perfect for my case.
