Hey guys,
Got my hands on the SGP Ultra Oleophobic screenshield for review this time, this is an oil-resistant screen protector. Installation was pretty simple as you can see on the video and I'm pleased with the screenshield. I've used several of these on other devices and they've held up well, so I wanted to pop one on my Galaxy Nexus and show it off.
Full review below:
Mine should be coming in the mail in about 10 minutes.
The fact that it doesn't extend to the edges of the screen is very disappointing. I understand the reasoning, but the edge of the screen protector is very noticeable, and it detracts from the overall look of the phone.
Would a wet application screen protector be able to extend all the way to the edge of the device?
I'd be interested to hear from anyone with the SGP Flex screen protector to see if they're any better.

Yes, a wet application would be able to extend all the way since it can be held down with more ease.
I've got an SGP Flex ready to install but I want to use this oleophobic for a couple more days.
Oh, I'd love to see a review of the flex when you install it. Personally I think I'll get a flex. I got the ultra oleophobic for free from a competition, so no loss.

I didn't do the review because I needed the shield, I did it because I know there are people that wanted to know how it fit/worked. Anyways, I apply screen shields for protection - better safe than sorry.

I've seen many of those, but I've also seen scratched devices that have Gorilla Glass. I know it's more scratch resistant, but it's not scratch proof. Screenshields don't bother me, so I don't mind the extra protection.
We love rbs_uk!
The Verizon GN screen shields are pretty good though and readily available. They also seem to fit a lot better than the SGP's...

Well I've already scratched my screen with nothing more than straw that fell down in my pockets while throwing bedding down for the cows (grasses actually leach silica out of the soil/lithology to give their cell walls rigidity). This screen is definitely not invulnerable and I think I will pick up the flex instead of this screen protector. I really like the idea of this oleophobic shield, just not the implementation.
This sounds quite interesting. The website mentions no rainbow effect, how true is that and does it reduce the image quality on screen??

I have noticed no rainbowing on the screen as opposed to a cheapo screenshield I had on before.
As for image quality, you won't notice any degradation of sharpness or clarity, the screen does get a little less bright I've noticed but it's nothing huge.
The guys over at Rootz told me post a thread here as well.
We will be making a tempered glass screen protector for the Nexus and wanted to see who was interested in such a thing.
I have a Kickstarter page ready to go and it will be live by next week.
What do you guys think?

Fantom Tempered Glass Screen Protector For Samsung Galaxy Nexus

After using the one from Spigen I'd have to pass. Great feel but prone to chipping along the edges.

Technically, but from what I've seen it has an oleophobic coating like the actual phone screen for fingerprints and such. I'm guessing it would look better than a plastic screen protector as well.
OP: I'll definitely back it when it's live.
I use the Spigen SGP GLAS.t on my Galaxy Note and it works well, but I don't see how glass is going to adhere to the curved surface of the Nexus unless it too is curved. How are you guys addressing that?

It's cheaper and easier than replacing your phones glass if you scratch or break it. Yes, there will be a coating to prevent fingerprints and such and will make cleaning oils off the glass extremely easy.

This question came up before, we tested a few prototypes and the curve is very minimal so we did not have much of a problem addressing it.
got a question for ya
Is it possible to slightly bevel the edges? Ive seen a few reviews on these and one of the things that I think would drive me crazy is the edges would be higher then the case of the phone. if there beveled below the case, it looks better, feels better and lowers the chances of catching the corner causing chips
just a thought. maybe offer that option as a special order. I know i wouldnt mind paying more for that
Really excited to see this! Some videos of prototypes would be awesome.
I do YouTube Reviews mainly for accessories for certain products (Specially for apple) But now that I've switched to Galaxy Nexus as my primary phone.
I'm going to try and review a few cases/accessories here and there too.
Interesting. What model of nexus is it for? Or are the screen layouts similar enough to use the same one on gsm/Verizon/sprint?

The screen is the same?
The only thing that changes is the thickness of the phone and CDMA/GSM technology.

Definitely interested! Whilst I have no problems with clarity using a cheap ebay screen protector, I do miss the oleophobic coating on an unprotected nexus.
If you guys could replicate that, it would be awesome. Also, it's really annoying when some screen protectors get peeled up on the edges due to the curvature of the screen. I hope it doesn't happen to this project.

This may be a possibility. When the samples come in I'd need to take a look.

what happens if it cracks? It must do something to the screen.

So if I have a silicon screen, I'd get a silicon case and slap it on top of it to protect the silicon ?

The idea is to give you a naked glass screen experience while providing an extra layer of protection that will take the scratches for your screen, since the replaceable glass protector is considerably cheaper to swap out than the screen itself.
At least that's the concept behind a comparable product made for other phones (SGP GLAS.t).
Hi,
I am looking for a screen protector for the Galaxy Nexus that feels as near as possible to glass? I like the glassy feeling while using the device and I would hate to have something rubbery instead. I understand the value of a screen protector and I am looking for something that feels the least like rubber i.e. more like glass and less like rubber.
Thank you,
O. O.

I ordered one, they still haven't shipped yet. Just answering the OP's question, I think glass is what would "feel as near as possible to glass"
I wonder how high over the bezel this will go?
I like this idea, but the LCD is already low enough in the glass, this is just creating more of a gap.
I am really interested in a review though.
just go on you tube and look up sgp glass youll know what the tempered glass screen protector is basically like

Thanks Alex1123 Yes, I am looking for a "tempered glass" screen protector for the Galaxy Nexus. Do you have any clue who sells them.
I went to the SGP website and they clearly have a Tempered Glass screen protector for the IPhone 4 e.g. http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/ap...tor-glas-t-premium-tempered-glass-series.html
On the other hand they do not seem to have this for the Galaxy Nexus e.g. http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/google.html this is their list. They have other screen protectors - but not the tempered glass version which I want.
Do you know of any other brands that sell tempered glass screen protector for the Galaxy Nexus Phone?
Thank you,

Dear Big Cam
While we are waiting for EvilOlivE to receive his screen protector I wanted to make two points:
First, the link posted above http://www.xgearlive.com/products/android/samsung/fantom mentions that the screen protector has a thickness of 0.4 mm. I am not experienced with smart phones, so do you think this would still cause a problem.
Second, the article at http://www.droid-life.com/2012/06/1...ectors-for-the-galaxy-nexus-up-for-pre-order/ mentions that you should use coupon code NEXUSFTW to get $5 off. This is just in case someone else is ordering.

Autocorrected from my Nexus
Ive been using screen protector since i got my nexus, early this year. but after seeing my friend who has a HTC Sensation, with no screen protection for over a year, and his screen is really scratch less, made me rip off the protector and just enjoy my device ! now myself im advertising for everyone to remove their screen protectors , by showing all my friends around with a live example how good the screens are already by taking car key and sliding it over my screen multiple times and no scratches are left on the screen.

I wouldnt have done that if I were you. Our phone's screens are strong, but not as strong as gorilla glass. I dropped my nexus 4 days after I got it with no case and screen protector. They were still getting shipped from online. It dropped from average chair height and fell out of my lose pockets from my basketball shorts. No damage or anything on the phone except a 4 very little dings and a scratch near the front camera. I was lucky it wasnt on the camera or on the screen. It was on the black border. I'd say our screens are 3/4 or 2/3 as stong as the average phone with gorilla glass.
Well....just be careful wut ever u do Cuz.....a co worker from A friend of mine bought his nexus online had it for a week.....dropped it....a thin ....long crack resembling a backwards "c" formed on his screen......he paid 500-ish.....total for his phone....I paid him 200.....everything..phone..box ..cables....brand new everything...just the crack on the screen....be care full...might be scratch resistant....but not too sure Bout shocks....

Wow, $30 for screen protector! One would almost want a screen protector for this screen protector at this price . I also wonder (when it ships) how it would play with curved glass on Galaxy Nexus. The curve is not big but glass is not as flexible as regular film.
For what it matters, I went with real cheappo $4 for 5 film and I like it better, sensitivity wise then naked screen. It's smoother and finger can glide on it without getting stuck like on glass. Plus I can attest for anti-glare quality. I can finally run my Nexus in the car at 25% brightness even in the broad daylight and can still clearly see the screen.

Well, watching the video of the one for the iphone, it does bend a bit. So maybe that will help.

The guy from the company who makes these posted on the forum (the thread was closed because of the advertising rule) showing the a glass protector for a smaller screen applied on the Nexus to prove that it works with the curved screen. It seems to work fine.
My only reservation with the protector right now is how well the edges would work and how easy it is to apply. Normally I would buy a pair of protectors in case I screw the first one up, but at the price I would have to think twice about it.

On their website, they say there will be cut out for LED. I assume that is for the notification. And I watched a YouTube video where a guy demonstrates applying it and also taking it off with his nails. It seems very easy enough with no residues left on the screen.

Out of stock and also not by Xtremeguard. $39.99 before "discount"? That's a joke.
If you're in the US you can buy it for $6.99 all the time off of ebay. Yes, slightly more expensive than their 90% off group of 2, but just shows you the ridiculous price Xtremeguard is normally charging for a product that isn't even theirs.

Also, if anyone tried, how easy is it to peel off?
I'm using the xtremeguard one right now. Obviously didn't pay 40 bucks for it. Honestly it's my favorite accessory for my phone. The glass feels a bit beveled and it reminds me if the edged on the nexus 4, how they used to be so smooth. I'm sure all the tempered glass protectors feel like this but this is the one I have.

Hmm, interesting. The packaging was completely different for me. Yours looks like the actual packaging from the ebay page. Mine Also says USA126 on it, but it's some generic packaging with an iphone on the front. However, inside everything looks the same as what you got. The pad, protector, cloth, and that same blue sticker. I put on the protector yesterday and so far I do like it a lot. Also, I'm not sure if the sticker was meant for this, but instead of wiping it down with the alcohol pad, I used the sticker to pick up all of the dust before applying the protector and it worked extremely well.
Still out of stock. Might hit up that ebay screen protector.
Does the eBay protector cover side to side or is it rounded off the corners so cases don't pick it up. How's the adhesive on it? Any webbing? Does it stick fully? These eBay protectors aren't always the best. How about the oleophobic coating?

The edges appear to be rounded, they haven't picked up at all with my case. The adhesive is great, no webbing, and it adhered fully. I cleaned the phone VERY well, took off the backing from the screen protector, and gently placed it on the phone. I was surprised that I didn't have to press hard to make it seal, or do the binder clip thing that other people have talked about. I'm very happy with mine, and for $6 it's the best screen protector I have ever bought.
This makes me wish I hadn't bought my full price spigen glasTr. There's no way it's 4 times as good as this.
So far I'm happy with the 6 dollar one I bought. It came in wrong packaging, but the product itself seems fine. I use the nexus 4 replica case and it fits very well. I think I had a bit of spiderwebbing but I pressed on it with my finger and it went away. I did notice a very tiny speck of dust I must have must underneath but its not always visible even though I know where it is. There's seems to be a very small scratch on the bottom and top corner. I'm not sure if that's something underneath but again, it's hardly visible and it's not on the screen part so I don't mind.

It's not bad, I've only had it since May but so far no chips and fits great with both the slim armor and the acase superleggra . Fingerprints do show but they are easy to clean.

It is 19.99 here in the States.

Got myself a Gadgetshieldz screen guard for the S10+ when I ordered my skin from them. It’s a self healing one and no scratches till now and most importantly it works fine with the fingerprint scanner. This one looks much better than the actual Pre-installed Samsung screen guard. The screen and guard cost me only around 10$ including shipping.

To each his own I guess, I hate self healing skins as they have a orange peel finish and it drags/not smooth. The Samsung original one is PET material, not as smooth as glass but much better than self healing protector.

You get 2 protectors (3-5 would've been nice) and they are made in Korea just like the phone. The packaging mentions shock protection, dunno how valid that statement is!

Do these have the same cutout for the front camera or is the whole corner cutout?
Saw someone say that the whole corner was cutout.
It is the whole corner cutout.

I've been using these for the last 3 devices. No issues. On my S10+ the top keeps trying to lift. I'm on my 4th one now and about to give up. They install perfect reach time but after a few days you can see it starting to lift near the top bezel. No case touching it. Anyone else having these issues?

I have the same issue without a case as well. If you look closely you'll see that there is still a thin strip of adhesive keeping it dust tight but still lifting around the edges.
Are there any dry application screen protectors that cover the entire screen like Samsung protector? Those case friendly protectors look weird since they leave margins on the display

Same here, i have been using them since Galaxy S8+, never had any issues, once fitted it stayed good until damaged or removed. Now for S10+ i've had 3 replacements under warranty as it is lifting up or peeling of as they call it, and it is not even close to the edge, i have another replacement waiting to be fitted so i will try to put more glue maybe? as it looks like there is just about in the tube, I am so tempted to remove it and have just natural screen without any protectors but it is an expensive phone
