Screen Protector? - ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers

I see the phone is not shipped with a pre-installed screen protector, shame as it has a flat screen.
Anybody confirm it does not have one?

hello
i can confirm , there is no pre-installed screen protector but it's not a problem i have never installed a screen protector on my zenfone 5Z , only a flip cover
regards

I apply one straight away, always do, found some on ebay and amazon already but from china only.

I never did to. But sadly manage to scratch the screen on my Zenfone 6. First time it happens to me

The cheap pre-installed screen protectors on basically every phone that has them pre-installed... are always so bad. No oleophobic coating, and a rubbish touch feeling.. for me, I'm glad they didnt bother to install one from factory.

Tempered glass screen protector

Just ordered a 6x, do someone know something about a good tempered glass screen protector?
Is the screen flat or curved on the edges?

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

Does View 10 have oleophobic coating?

Can anyone who have View 10 confirm whether it has oleophobic coating or not? I am thinking about buying this phone but dont like screen protectors.
Yes, it have good oleophobic coating.

Interesting.....
Mine came with a screen protector installed.
I don't know about the screen itself, but with the screen protector on, it is much worse at showing fingerprints than my Honor 8.
The Honor 8 came with one of those shipping screen protectors with the little tab to pull it off. The one provided with the Honor V10 is more like one that is meant to stay on at least for a while (no tabby thing). If I am wrong on this, and I should remove it, please advise.

Screen protector

Not looking for a screen protector in case someone thinks I've posted in the wrong place.
My question is, does the OP6 come with a screen protector already fitted?
Have been using ******* screen protector with no probs. Anyway, yesterday found a crack and removed the protector and was glad it wasn't the screen. Went to refit a new one and as I was cleaning saw that there is already a film protector on there. Is this standard?
Works ok with 2 protectors anyway!!!! ?
Yes, there is a screen protector already fitted, been running without any protection for a while now. No scratches thus far. (3 months atleast now I believe.)

Redmi K20 Pro Screen protectors.

Planning to get the Redmi K20 Pro but would like to keep it minimal in terms of protection. Just need some scratch protection.
Seen Gadgetshieldz full body screen protector as one of the recommendations.
https://www.gadgetshieldz.com/xiaomi-redmi-k20-pro-screen-protector-guards.html
Anything else that can be used without adding much bulk just for scratch protection? Don't want to hide those lovely patterns on the k20 back.
You should be able to use any screen protector for the Mi Mix 3 we they have the same screen size.

Have you seen or tried the Mobile Outfitters films for front, back or whole size?
So I recently got my Mi 9T pro and found this thread while looking for a screen protector.
Has anyone tried the linked one from gadgetshieldz? If yes, good experiences? Does it cover the complete screen? I really can't stand the glass protectors which leave like 2mm of the screen on each side completely uncovered...

No
bought Glazedinc screen protector.. its hard and solid. covered every side.
I am using The Ringke Red Case, along with a generic Hydragel screen Protector from AliExpress (₹65). Till now my phone has had atleast 6-7 falls of which 2 were serious enough to stop the heart but zero bumps or cracks...
I haven't felt the need for over priced screen protectors from Glazedinc or anyone else...
Previously i used to use S-sheildz (Origin of GadetshieldZ from USA). Had to use water to apply the film but it was good enough that in my 7+ years of using them never had a screen scratch.... Or crack.. But can't find a source anymore. And Don't want pay more then 200 per screen guard....

once the Hydragel screen protector is applied, can that be removed .. when we dont want it..
I am using a nillkin screen protector 0.33mm without the black edges. Fits perfect without any bubbles or ring effect. So far the best screen protector for this phone if you want a glass screen protector. It has good olephobic coating so it's smooth and because I got the 0.33mm version they don't crack easily.
Where did you buy that? I have Nillkin tempered glass screen 0.2mm from Amazon India. It doesn't cover the whole screen. It doesn't even cover the display area completely. It also has halo around the edges even though I went to mobile phone store and asked them to apply the screen protector.
This is in fact my 3rd screen protector. I applied 2 others - one which had black edge which covered part of the display, and second one without black edges which also didn't cover the entire display.
I've also bought a set of 2 from GearBest, but I haven't applied it as it's the same size as the Nillkin one.
2 more on the way from Aliexpress, but I'm not too hopeful about them either. I don't want to take chance with another Nillkin, but you've found one that covers the entire screen and the edges stick properly as well, then I'd like to try it.

Oh easily,,, It's just some kind of plastic+rubber film that is preventing any scratches on my screen... Should offer enough protection from breaks also...
I'm using Clearplex on the screen with this phone. Is awesome. The case in the box is nice but not very strong, it's breaking in corners without getting hit or fallen.
I ordered hydrogel back film (Im waiting for it from Aliexpress) and a Nillkin transparent cover to have a couple of options.
Does transparent Nillkin cover get yellowish after a couple of months?

Can you tell me if it has the black borders?

Hey guys and gals,
Has anybody tried a frosted/matte/anti-glare screen protector with the 9T PRO/K20 Pro? Which one?
Have you noticed any changes with the performance of the fingerprint sensor?
Thanks!

Hmm I bought in lazada which is like aliexpress but for my country the 0.33mm one doesn't breakf easily and I understand what you mean by not fitting fully it does have like a gap of few cm of the edges. But a case solves this. I am using spoken case btw. it doesn't have the rainbow effect though. When I got it and install I just push the bubbles out from the side the rainbow effect is gone. Idk maybe different place they use different kind of glass. I am using Redmi k20 pro btw

Question Screen Protector

On having the phone in my pocket it suffered some minor scratches from my keys on the outer screen protector (when in phone mode) that is installed by default. Possible to remove and to install a matte SP ?
Yes. I have changed mine a few times.
Yes me too
Thanks. Where did you get the replacement screen protector from ?

I got mine at Aliexpress. Fairly quick shipping
I put a matte screen protector on the inner screen, looks amazing! Also from Aliexpress.
Good evening Mickey,
Is it easy to remove the existing inner screen protector and replace with the Matte one. The fingerprints are driving me mad on the factory installed one!
If you don't mind me asking,. What one did you go for on AliExpress? How are you getting on with it?

Just be like me, leave the existing inner screen protector and just put the Matte one on top of it. Of course make sure you clean it properly before applying. Can't even tell that there's 2 screen protectors on the inner screen

Thanks for the reply metalvibe. So no issues with gaps or folding the phone shut with the additional inner protector. Any specific recommendations on AliExpress?

I haven't encountered any problems, have had the device for about 3 months, changed the inner screen protector about 4 times (because i was trying out matte vs non-matte) while leaving the factory installed one on. No problems except (in the current installation), the non-factory screen protector slightly peeling off at the fold (i.e. bubbling) but that's probably due to the 3rd party screen protector glue quality. I just bought a few from Aliexpress from various suppliers, I think they're all the same manufacturer anyway as the ad pictures and details are all the same even when the product arrives, they're all the same. Just go for a more "reputable" one and cross your fingers that it actually does come.
