Anyone found a decent fitting one yet?
the genuine htc one maybe ? cut perfectly goes on flawlessly
I have Brando ultra clear. Fits perfectly.
But there are already some screen protector threads.
Good day! the defender comes with its own screen protector but is not an anti glare one, and out on a sunny day the screen is just not visible, will i have problems if i install one inside the case? will it still be an antiglare screen even if there is another screen protector over it? i dont want to remove the builtin one just so that everybody knows.
thanks!

The only thing I see happening is that it would make it weird to look at since the screen protector in front is still not anti-glare. You might get the effect you want by buying a cheap anti-glare protector and installing it on the Otterbox's existing protector.
thanks for the reply! but do you mean to install the antiglare protector ON the otterbox screen protector itself? it kind of makes sense though.
I always punch the Otterbox plastic screen protector out of the case (camera side too if it has one). Seems silly to put a cheap piece of plastic over a nice screen. Then you can add the film, over the screen, which does look better than the Otterbox plastic.
I'm a huge fan of the Otterbox Defender series except for the built in screen protector. Can't stand it. Ripped mine out and have found that I can put the defender case on on top of the Zagg Glass ( my personal favorite screen protector ) , and had zero issues, even dropped it several times with no problems.
The new s5 defender case has enough problems snapping together without a screen protector on it its a very tight fit however the silicon on this one really holds the show together. If you do intend to to fit one as someone said removing the built in one might have to be the way to go as i seriously don't think you would be able to clip the shells together.

Did this with my s4. The plastic will tend to adhere to the sticky screen protector making it look like water In between. A lot of lifeproof cases do this too. I heard baby powder wiped on and off the back of the Otterbox plastic screen would help cure that. Popping out the built in screen protector works better In my opinion. You still protect the screen from scratches and almost as much from falls.

Which screen protector do you use, and which is the best?
I got myself Makibes Toughened Glass and while it does the job well (rounded edges, totally transparent, lots of accessories to clean and put it on screen) i find it a bit grippy. I come from Nexus 4, and compared to that screen this one is not so smooth when running a finger over it (It is smooth compared to some plastic protectors though).
It does not cover proximity sensor or camera. Do protectors never cover that?
Did you find a perfect screen protector? I am thinking of buying a new one that has everything like this one but less grippy
I have a Nillkin 9H and its really smooth, i would say its like the original screen when i run my finger over it i'm totally satisfied. Btw, it covers the frontcam.
I'm also using a Nillkin 9H screen protector, same as rob rich. I also think the feeling is like the original screen in terms of smoothness and feeling. It does cover the front camera as rob rich also said. In my opinion, the screen protector is much more resistant to fingerprints as well. Not saying the original screen is a fingerprint magnet, but fingerprints get more stuck on the original screen than the screen protector.
It don't cover the proximity sensor (which is a good thing imo), because A LOT of times when the proximity sensor is covered by a screen protector, it will behave very strangely. You can google about screen protectors and proximity sensors and you will find a lot of information about it. Why would you even want to cover the proximity sensor anyway?
I got Nillkin 9H.
I like it enough, it is similar as the one i had before, but it is not as smooth as Nexus 4, which is the reason i bought it in the first place.
So my search for a screen protector that does not "grip" continues

i use this 9h glass, probably not from a well-known brand.. works fine though, smooth to the touch
I'm also using the Nilkin 9H+ Screen Protector and it works really good.
I had a previous case with a screen protector built in for my S9+ and it worked great, but I'm having issues now. I found this one:
Case with Protector, but it says not compatible with fingerprint ID. I assume this is because of the fingerprint built into the screen?
Does anyone know of a case that has a screen protector AND works with the fingerprint reader? Or is the built in protector not possible due to the fingerprint reader in the screen now?
I would assume no built in screen protectors will work..in order for the FPS to work, the screen protector has to basically be attached to the screen with zero air gap between phone and protector..

One of my friend used Gadgetshieldz case fit screen protector and he used many third party cases. Those fits are really great But I've ordered normal screen protector from them, waiting to order case fit once they released.

and this was on the S10+?
For screen protector I would go with whitestone dome. For me it acts the same as if I had the preinstalled samsung film. I would then go on amazon and check out reviews and questions for whitestone dome. People tend to post their comparable cases. I am using the UAG Monarch and it fits without a problem.
I HIGHLY recommend the Whitestone protectors. The adhesive makes them SUBSTANTIALLY more chip/crack resistant and the touch sensitivity is light years ahead of other protectors (like ZAGG). It was my go-to on Note and now S10+.
I am a minimalist and finally found a case that's thin but also adds SOME protection. TORRAS on Amazon. The hard plastic has a matte finish, amazing touch and feel but little protection. The silicone option is thin, has ridges to protect camera and screen but slides in pants and pockets easily. It DOES offer drop protection relatively.

I actually just picked up the TORRAS Slim on Amazon, not sure if it's the same one you have. Currently I'm using the Spigen Rugged Armor... but it's too thin in my opinion. I feel like if I drop my phone, I have little protection.

I've been using the HD Clear Hybrid Screen Protector (2pk) by amFilm from Amazon.
Works ok
Any other ones out there worth a try?
rock on
