What screen protector to buy?

I did a quick search and couldn't find much on this topic for this phone, specifically.
For those of you who have bought/used a screen protector for this phone, which brand would you recommend for? recommend against? And why?

ScreenProtector
Hey, personally i just bought the HD Zagg shield for the screen. Compared to other screens out there its a little more expensive, but you cant argue with the clarity and protection it gives. Plus it doesn't distort the picture at all and for a phone like the LGOG screen resolution is killer.

Screen Protector. What is that? LOL, no need with these new phones. My 2 cents.

I too prefer the zagg invisashields

I got the Ghost Armor because it is almost like the HD Invisible Shield.
Full body for $30. Feels like I'm touching the screen itself.
If you really want protection then go for the regular Zagg.

I bought this one from Spigen:
http://www.amazon.com/SPIGEN-SGP-Pr...keywords=spigen+screen+protector+lg+optimus+g
Fits perfectly, easy to apply, high quality, crystal clear, and the price is right.

I bought the Xtreme Full Body Protectors cheap but good really quality, for best protection I would go zag full body.

Sorry to hear about your experience. I've had this screen protector installed since Thanksgiving and the phone is in constant contact with my face all day long and haven't had any oil absorption issues at all with it. Its as clear as the day I installed it.

Awesome, and it's not forcing the edges up at all?
Sent from my Sprint LG Optimus G

The edges come up if I apply really hard pressure to the edges of the case. The key I have found is that when inserting the phone into the case, insert it at an angle under the lip of the case so that you are sure that the lip rests on top of the screen protector and not adjacent to it. Basically, imagine the amount of extra pressure you need to apply (compared to just holding the phone normally) to click one of the volume buttons while the phone is in the case. Now multiply that 5x. That's about how hard I have to push on the sides of the case if I want the case to force the up the screen protector. In my experience, unless I really try, the screen protector does not bubble up when in the Diztronic case and so it just not an issue for me.

I didn't have a screen protector on my phone for the first month, and it got some very light scratches. Also, the center of the screen had its coating rubbed off somewhat (the screen cleaner beaded differently in the center when sprayed on.) I usually use the Zagg HD shields, they covered up the light scratches and protect the phone nicely, I can barely tell that its on.

agreed, can't say enough good about these Spigen screen protectors.
The UQ is amazing but fingerprinty. They are hard to install perfect, but are dry installed. Clean up your dusty environment before you attempted to install one because the tiniest speck will show.

Still not sure how it happened, but I found a few minor scratches on my "gorilla" glass recently. There's never anything in my pocket with my phone, so I really don't understand how they got there.
Anyways, I found a 50% off code for Zagg at RetailMeNot:
feb4
Just ordered a front & back shield for ~$15.50 shipped.
I mean, WTF? Gorilla glass? More like scratch it by looking at it glass. My kid's tossed my HP Touchpad to the ground and smashed trains on it dozens of times and there's not a mark on it. But I put my LGOG in my pocket, take it out, and its scratched. Grrrrrr.

I bought a HD mirror screen protector. I wouldn't advise it. It reminds me of taking your 3D glasses off in the theater and watching the movie. This is while the phone is powered on.
In the sun its hard to see unless its on full display brightness.
These are my findings and opinions. I wouldn't buy it again.

[Q] HTC Double Dip Hard Shell Case - Screen Protector Compatibility

hi guys.
I have been looking around and trying different cases, however i always end up looking at the official Double Dip htc Hard case, as it looks to be the best one .
Just wondering about the case, asking the people who have used it. I always use Xtremeguard/Invisibleshield wet application screen protectors on my htc One. i wanted to know if the case is compatible with screen protectors? because i have come to experience some cases making the protector peel off.
any responses will be appreciated.

Some screen protectors work, some don't.
From my experience, skinomi and just a generic matte screen protector did not work with the case, but I'm using a gadget shieldz now and it works

absolutely right
bought this cover 2 days ago, unfortunately top (red) part of cover - when applied will peel off screen cover
this because gap for front camera eye, actually bottom side of this hole.
screen protector - nothing special - something from phones4u for 8 pounds
any idea?

I'd say get a "wet" screen protector as they can bend into shape. That's what mine has done, instead of peeling off because of the front camera it molded itself around it. Hope that makes sense

Yeah the screen protectors that need to be wet or have the screen wet before being applied
They're also easier to apply because you can take them off again and re-apply. The only ones I know of are gadget shieldz or skinomi

Has anyone tried putting on the HTC Double Dip case with a Ghost Armor screen protector?

I just received mine that I ordered off ebay /Hong Kong as well. It's pretty nice. I've removed it a couple of times already to see if it scratches and no it hasn't. I just made sure before I first put it on to clean/scrape the inside of any excess plastic.

I'd wait for about a day for it to settle and everything. Apply the screen protector before you sleep and then put the case on when you wake up.

Are wet application type screen protectors the only ones that are compatible with the Double Dip case?
I would feel more comfortable knowing that the screen is protected but I am not a fan of the grippy texture that Zagg usually has. But if it's the only one that works then beggars can't really be choosers.
Edit: Decided to go with the Zagg Invisible Shield. It actually isn't as bad as it used to be. I'm really satisfied with my purchase.

[Q] Which screen protector

I've received my Oppo Find 7 this week and I'm having some bubbles under the pre-installed screen protector caused by dust particles.
Does anyone have some good advice for buying a well build screen protector?
There are so many marks and price differences that I don't know anymore what to take!
Please help me out guys/girls!
Feel free to post your experiences of your screen protector!

Well, on my past phones, I've always used Ghost Armor or Zagg ones because the eBay cheap plastic ones are just ok. This time, I decided to use the tempered glass screen protector route and I know most people don't like them but it's my favourite now. It's like touching the actual screen. Very smooth and not noticeable. I believe 0.3mm thick. Most people who look at it don't even know it's there.
Anyways, just my opinion. I know there are some who really don't like it.

Where did you buy yours?
Is it hard to install and can you still easily remove it afterwards without any damage?
I've heard that a tempered glass uses adhesive to stick on the screen.

I actually bought it on eBay. I bought 2 different ones from 2 different sellers just to see. They fit perfectly and way easier to install than the regular ones. U just align it and lay the protector down and that's it. It will just smooth out with no bubbles. I removed it easily with no residue or anything and used the other one and it's the same thing. Unless I lucked out but I haven't had any adhesive stuck on my screen at all.

Nillkin 9H is the absolute best screen protector I've ever used.
All of the thin plastic ones are garbage as they affect the apparent image quality.
Purchase the Nillkin glass at any cost; it's absolutely worth it.

Screen protector?

So for the LG g3, is it a good idea to get a screen protector or will it be pretty scratch resistant without one?

I got a tiny scratch that you barley on my G3 and bought a glass screen protector right away, its great, and I don't really notice it, well worth the money,
What people don't understand about gorilla glass is that its still glass no matter how strong it is, all those videos of knives on the screen don't make sense since metal doesn't usually scratch glass anyway, but put some sand near it, even one grain and you got hella scratches, I'd do it, but only the glass screen protector, plastic ones are ugly, leave bubbles and are hard to apply.
Trust me my S5 got scratched within a month all over + my s2 as soon as I took off the protector, Just from keeping it in my pocket

I put one on straight out of the box.
Currently got a plastic one on. No bubbles if you put it on properly.
Probably will get a glass one though when I know the phone has no faults and doesn't need to be sent back.

Haha that's dedication using the phone with the original screen cover on!
I took the original cover off and put a Spigen protector straight on. Didn't even have to wipe smudges or dust off, a lot easier like that [emoji3]

I've been using the stock protector from Verizon-- never pulled it off, it only blocks a little bit of the bottom buttons, and while it's a bit of a fingerprint magnet I figure it's perfectly applied/aligned (no dust specks or bubbles), etc. That said I don't expect it to look pristine for too much longer.
I ordered some of the Illumishield protectors from Amazon, I know someone who's used them and it looks nice. If the Verizon one's fingerprints start getting to me (or the "Audio Jack" and "Charging port" writing gets too obnoxious) I'll try one. Not sure I am ready to make the jump to tempered glass yet...

I've been using skinomi on all my phone's. Nice screen protector.

I put one on my device the second I got it, but I noticed a scratch on my screen when switching screen protectors, so I just run 100% naked now.

Screen Protectors Hunt Again

Hi guys so the screen protector hunt starts again ive been looking on amazon uk and some of them seem to be a full adhesive fit does anyone know if the xz2 has flat glass near the main display or is it 2.5D like most models
hear is one ive been looking at https://www.amazon.co.uk/Protector-...6&sr=8-7&keywords=xperia+xz2+screen+protector

On the same hunt, the glass is definitely 2.5D. I wouldn't expect any full adhesive glass protectors to work without massive halo's.

1 hour ago i've seen the brotect airglass, how are this screen protector?
Edit: finally today it's arrived brotect airglass, first time i've buyed and it's arrived a back screen protector for s9+ in xz2 package (???), contact the support and they send me a new for free and it's arrived today...no halo, great brightness and very good oleophobic treatment

i think they all seems to be lying on us... they advertise it as a 3D or full cover edge to edge but when you get your hands on it you realize it only protects the LCD, like flat protector...
well, i like this by IMAK... it's a 3D and full edge to edge film rather than tempered glass... what i don't like about it is not glossy, but rather anti-glare which i hate.

It prevents glass breaking by 30%.
Or was it 70%?
But it definitely strengths the glass structure.
