Tempered Glass Screen Protector

LINKS REMOVED

I'm all over this, thanks!

Very cool ^^
When I finally upgrade, I am definitely ordering one

is it re-usable? Can I take it off one S3 and put it in another? I'm switching from a 16 to a 32gb because I was lied to about first day availability

Sub'd ordering one soon! How is this thing with bubbles?
Also, very important to note: The S3 screen has edges that curve down into the phone. I don't think this will work as well for the S3 as it did for the nexus.

Yes you can remove and re-apply.

No bubbles at all. Lay it on and bubbles get sucked out, really interesting to watch.
We've had our S3 for a week now and the curve is not as severe as you think, it is extremely minimal.

Does it interfere with touch screen responsiveness? Just considering how thick it is compared to other screen protectors. Does it distort the screen at all?

99% of the time is works flawlessly, usually the screen will not respond if you're doing something very precise, but it doesn't happen often. The thickness is comparable to 4 pieces of paper. No screen distortion at all.

[Q] Thoughts on the Samsung S III C Pen

Hey guys,
In excitement to receive the new S III on Verizon, I have set to search for cases, screen covers, etc. However, I happened to come across the Samsung S III C Pen in another post and was wondering what your thought were on it. Has anyone try it yet?
I'm an Animation Student in Digital Arts, and would like to use the C Pen for quick sketching on the S III.
The Samsung's link is here:

Forgive me in advance if this topic was meant to be posted in the Q&A section instead of here,
Cheers,

While I can't speak to the C Pen itself, my understanding is that it is just a capacitive stylus, unlike the S Pen for the note. That being the case, you will probably end up with a similar experience to other capacitive screen styli. Their quality can vary greatly but they are all just trying to replace your finger.

I don't think this is true. I saw a video (can't remember where now) that showed this C Pen in use and although it wasn't like the Note's S Pen, it wasn't like a normal stylus either. It is supposed to only work on the GS3 from what I understand and the person in the video used it on an iPhone to prove it. I ordered one yesterday. I will update this post once I get it and let you all know what I think of it.
I also have the Galaxy Note phone so I will be able to compare the 2.

i have watched one video, the only thing interested me...was that the stylus works only on S3, but no respond on iPhone.
Just wonder if it was true or not. and whats the point for that....:good::good:

I bought one last week and ended up sending it back. It looks and feels fantastic, but it didn't work that great with my screen protector installed (Zagg InvisibleShield) The surface was too "tacky" for any real precise usage. I mainly bought it for Draw Something and stuff like that. Now if you don't have a screen protector it should work perfect. Also I was under the impression that you could use it on tablets as well, going off the Amazon description that says: "Replacement for using fingers on your tablet or smartphone touchscreen" Sadly that isn't the case. I tried it on my Acer Iconia a500 tablet and my wife's Galaxy Nexus and it didn't do a thing. That's mainly my fault though for not doing research on it before hand and just going off of the Amazon description. So all that being said, if you don't have a screen protector installed or have something other than a Zagg InvisibleSHIELD, you shouldn't have an issue with it.

If it is the same as the Zagg where the screen protector is tacky, then it will probably have the same results. It would probably work better if there isn't a screen protector on there or a crystal clear one. I have a regular capacitive stylus and using it on my Transformer, you can feel a little resistance with a "tacky" protector.

The SGSIII uses a capacitive stylus. I tried my GNote stylus on the SGSIII and it does not work. The GNote can take a WACOM (Stock) stylus and a capacitive stylus and work I believe.
I do like using S Memo from my GNote to jot notes so I ordered the OEM Stylus for my SGSIII as well.

Yea I know. I also have the GNote but I also have the Wacom Intuos 5 tablet and my GNote stylus does not work on it and the Wacom stylus does not work on my GNote either. I also ordered the OEM Stylus for my SGS3. Should be here early next week. :good:
And for the OP. Your first mistake was putting a Zagg shield on your phone. I used to use them on all my phones pretty much when they were the only option but Zagg shields suck. They're tacky like you said and they discolor, turn an ugly brownish color and the corners eventually peel (quicker than most other screen protectors I've used). There are plenty of better options out there now. I, personally, choose to keep my phones naked now. :cyclops:

Noob question:
does it take batteries somehow? I would imagine the pen simulates our fingers' electroblahblah pulses somehow... right?

A wacom pen works with magnets. You can actually write though something as thick as cardboard and it will still work.

any update? how do you like it?

I got the C pen today. If you are thinking it will be close in operation to a WACOM pen or the Galaxy Note, it is not. Not even close.
The C pen is well made but the rubber tip skips along and is not smooth. I have not quite figured out the best angle for writing (I am left handed). The C pen does work for flipping screens and apps etc.
I will keep it and play with it some more, but it is really more of show off feature that is not nearly as useful as it is on the GNote. I wanted to try it because I do actually take and keep notes on my GNote. I will update if I discover anything new.

The S pen is absolutely not worth it. It doesn't work on any other devices besides the SGSIII
And it really doesn't work any better that other styli on the SGSIII. The only thing it has going for it is that it looks beautiful.

Does SGN II White turn yellow over a period of time ?

Guys,
I am in the process of buying the SGN II - the best smartphone available these days, now I am in sort of limbo.
- The Titanium Grey Devices have a distinct gap which gathers dust around the screen, I noticed on approx 10 devices at different stores.
- I read on several blogs that the White device / body of samsung SGN II would turn yellow in about 3 months or so...!!
I am really confused now, I am even thinking if i should get the SGN II or not coz it's going to cost me 36K INR (approx. 654 USD).
Can someone please help me decide ??

Just the grey version gathers dust? Or the white as well, but you can't notice it?

I dont think this is true. I have the white one now going on 2 months now and its fine. If you look close at the White one you will notice that the white is actually not exposed at all. The white is actually coverd under a clear coat which gives it the shine that it has and the pebble smooth touch. So I would not give a penny to what or who ever you heard that from. Now on the back you have the battery door which is exposed and does not have the glass finish over it unlike the front of the phone. I have done this to get the best of both worlds. I have bought a carbon fiber/ Metal case that replaces the battery door on the phone and yes it has NFC built in the case. Does not really affect the signal for me as it replaces the door of the phone not just covers the phone completely and the OEM battery door. You whould check out this Ebay link to the case that I think will help you make up your mind.

Unfortatly I just received this cover today and had not tested the NFC located on the back cover. I just now tested it to try and beam pictures from my Galaxy Nexus over to my note 2. With the OEM battery case on the beam works fine but with this one I listed above when I put the case on the beam does not work T.T sorry for the mis information on the case. Looks like its back to using bluetooth which for me NFC is not a deal breaker since I have a international Note 2 so Google Wallet does not work anyways also I perfer blue to to NFC for only when I move pictures from time to time. Again sorry everyone

Guys, thanks a lot for your responses, I have bought a White SGN II and loving it. I bought a original Samsung back cover with front flap and it fits like a charm.....3 days with my SGN II and I am loving it. :good:

And yet it does. Sure it depends if you smoke, but the backcovers lowest section will change to yellow after a while.

I also noticed that my note 2 at times has yellowish hue but it could just as well be the interior lighting.

Yellow?! maybe it's just the moisture/sweat/grease off the hand, and over a length of time it builds up and stains the phone. Try cleaning it with some perfume that has ethanol in it. Makes your phone look brand new! and it has the feel of a new phone + smells nice. (but dont use too much of course - just a dab on a piece of cloth should do the trick.)

Tab 2 screen protector on a Note 10.1

Would it fit? I saw a cheap Galaxy Tab 2 screen protector but I don't know if it would fit. I think it would.
I searched a few tab 2 image and it almost exactly as my Note 10.1
Had someone try this?

Nope. I'd bought one when I first got my Note and overlaid it first to see; had to return it.
Honestly, we've got Gorilla Glass and I would worry about the SP affecting the SPen; I've been nude screen for nearly 6 mos and it's still flawless.

No, yeah, I trust in Gorilla Glass but I love matte feeling of the antiglare SP.

I'm using this and it works well. The anti-glare doesn't fuzz the image too much, and it feels like writing on paper if you switch the spen tip to the all white one.

The problem is that I live in Venezuela, and here is not easy to find that SP, I found the Tab 2 screenprotect, that's why I expected to fit.
I'd have to buy it on Amazon and wait for it to be delivered.
P.S. I didnt know that the S-Pen tip would make I difference, I don't even know how to replace it... I'm so gonna try it. :laugh:

I don't know what the differences are, but I like the white one better. I switched to it within a day or so, and haven't looked back. It might feel similar with the default tip, but I haven't tried it.

This is so old I don't even know if this will be any use to you.
I have both of these tablets, and they have the same screen, almost as if the same exact faceplate was used. You can use either type of screen protector On either device.

at the moment, no.
the cover plastic said don't put anything on the screen,
the warning during setup said don't put anything on the screen,
the website care instructions say don't put anything on the screen,
yet there i was standing at a samsung experience store being asked if i wanted to buy a protective screen cover for the front, main, and back of the phone. i was confused to all hell.
after a bunch of back and forth, the workers at the store said that the warnings "mean to say" dont use an adhesive screen protector. the one they sell is applied with a spray solution.
my last question to them was "will it void my warranty?", and unfortunately, their answer was "no, it SHOULDN'T void your warranty".
once i heard that type of careful wording, i knew they had no idea what they were talking about, even the manager ( since this purchase was expensive, they had a manager overseeing it).
as of right now, i am still quite careful of how hard i press the buttons and what conditions i bring out the phone in.
if i start to see scratches, i might consider the main screen proctector, but for now, i will keep it as is.
sorry for the long reply. lol

I put one on and have 0 regrets! Comes off really easy and I like the extra piece of mind!

Could you post oictures... I bought the Olixar one but I'm hesitant to put it on...

I have installed 2 different types and this one has been the easiest to install, I have removed 2 of them so far and no residue left behind by the screen protector.
See attached pics of my phone with the screen protector applied. (I did mess up a bit and left couple of small bubbles in there and top left was due to me placing a sticker to remove a dust particle)
This is the one that i bought

PS. The fingerprint and some of the marks you see are not visible to the naked eye, Camera enhances them a bit and makes it look worst than it actually is.

Olixar easy to install is clear smooth and easy to keep clean

the regular msrp. $1980 USD, or $2599 CDN, im in canada so this phone cost $2910 after taxes
i would hold off. if you've already spent that much money on other devices, theres no point being in such a rush.
the new year is here already. pay the remaining off or sell it somehow, have money ready for the new fold 2 (not the clam shell flip phone) if it comes out later this year.
good luck!
