Small Screen Protector - Galaxy S III Accessories

Hey guys I'm looking if there's a screen protector that covers just the screen. I'm looking to order a matte black decal to cover the front of the phone around the screen to match my black UAG case (favorite case so far btw, its amazing!!! If you havent tried it your really should. 8th case is the charm? Lol). But right now I have the spigen curved screen protector on and I still want one when I put the from decal on just wondering what you guys would recommend. I'm a little hesitant to put a screen protector over the skin or vice versa. Or is there any skins that include a screen protector??
PS the curved screen protector works awesome with this case. You can't even tell there's one on there and there is no bubbling or edges being pushed up. I will post more about this in the UAG case forum when I get a chance to get some pics and stuff.

Best I can think of would be getting a universal screen protector. Downfall is they aren't going to be as good as the name brand protectors, but pretty much like the cheap generic china made protectors you get off of ebay.
Upside is they usually come with multiple (3-5) sheets that you can cut out your self. Otherwise I was unable to find exactly what your looking for (nor heard of any). Maybe someone else has though, wait and see.

get realook over zagg, you wont be dissapointed. as for case, imo i like the body glove and tpu. i switch off here and there but i use the body glove mostly bcuz the tpu makes it a pain sometimes to hit the hard keys.
hey does the tpu stick to your bag? like rubber?

I have a realook screen protector and it's very nice but I always have to clean it because it's a fingerprint magnet. I bought a Skinomi screen protector from Amazon because it only cost me $1.05. I haven't tried it yet and the reviews on Amazon are less than favorable for it. Here's the link so you should take a look.

Cases & screen Protector
I had purchased a case on amazon for $1 and it sucked i went to a T-Mobile store and got the gel case that they had and it is awesome i have dropped my phone a couple of times and it still works perfectly.
The screen protector i also got from tmobile and it was really good it comes in a 2 pack for like 10 - 15
I use the T-Mobile Black gel skin case and I used to have a ZAGG screen protector but after the whole gorilla glass revelation I have not used a screen protector and have not had any problems. I have heard and seen lots of good things about reallook
I have both the body glove case and the tough case by case mate. I like the case mate one as the body glove chrome front piece is very fragile and will break.

Case-Mate Tough Case.. I purchase many different cases and the Case-mate one doesn't stick and comes in two layers without making the phone too bulky. It makes the vibrant feel solid in the hand and you won't ever have to worry about dropping it.
It's a little bit pricey at $29.99 but its worth it. It also comes with a screen protector but I personally haven't tried it out and I prefer the screen to be naked. Yet to be scratched. There is a thread on XDA in regards to the Case-mate tough case including pictures.
After purchasing this case, I looked no further and I've been satisfied with this case for months.

i was thinking on getting that barely case =/ i kno for a fact im getting that realook screen protector!
I second the case mate tough case. Its awesome. Goes in and out of your pocket without sticking. Plus it gives it a.great feel. Also the realook is the best. Just make sure in a.dust free environment. I read on here that the bathroom after a shower is best. That's how I installed mine and it went great.

The barely there case is nice. I have the silver. Don't let anyone tell you that the silver one degrades the signal, it does not. The black one has a better grip, though, it's textured where the silver one is slick.
here's the silver:

I also like the realook sp, I've tried at least 5 others and realook is the best in my opinion.

As I'm sure you have come to the conclusion... reallook is the way to go when it comes to screen protectors, no questions asked. just do it.
I was stopped at the mall I live near by the people selling the invisibleSHIELDs. They called basically said i was lying that I even had a SP on my phone, because "no screen protector looks that good" and told me that i cant take a key to it... so i did and nothing happened.
Then they lost sales when the other people they stopped asked me what company mine was and found out it was half the price, ha.
and for the case i have the jell tmobile one... i got it as a "meantime" case, until i found one i liked.... and i have fell in love with it.

Screen Protector Film Recommendations?

Hello,
Do you recommend Belkin Anti-Glare Screen protector for SGS2? (if you have used it) If not, which screen protector do you recommend? The most important thing for me: It nearly shouldn't have any affect on touch screen sensitivity.
Thanks.
You see im in the camp of whats the point of a screen protector, adding another layer to screen. I just use a cheap clam flip case to keep the screen safe. Only just had S2 but never had a screen protector on my sgs for over year and never got a mark on it

Getting a 3M Estoc+ on Monday. These are available on GMarket's website. I'll let you know how it is on Monday ;-)

I'm using a basic silicon case. Flip cases are protecting well but having a flap hanging around while using the phone is a little bit annoying for me. I want to use it because, Gorilla Glass screen is just scratch resistant, not scratch-proof. There are many people reporting scratches after just daily use. Also Anti-Glare films making the screen easier to slide, especially in games like Fruit Ninja

OK, I will be glad if you let me know about it. It looks fine. But I couldn't find any local online shop selling Estoc protectors. So, i think I'm going to buy this one tomorrow:

I will write about it.
I have tried the SGP ultra oleophobic, and this worked well for 2 weeks, but after that it would start to attract oil, ... the opposite of what it was supposed to do, the plus side is that it doesn't have tint and the screen looks good. I am now going to try the Halo screen protector. Let us know how you screen protector turns out.
I really like the one that comes with the otterbox for the S2.
it's easy to put on and fits perfectly!
hope this helps
Definitely Zagg invisibleSHIELD.
I couldn't find them locally either. GMarket was the only place I could find them online, I split the cost of shipping with a few other people from XDA.

You get 2,unlike zagg.
It also is much smoother, no orange peel & is not tacky unlike zagg products.
But zagg is still a very good product in my opinion.

zagg is a good brand/product ... but the invisible shield, like chrisjcks said, is not smooth which affect the touch response cause of that tacky feel of it
Received the 3M Estoc screen protector today. It's quite solid, and enables you to 'buff out' minor scratches & dings on the protector. This is due to a coating on the protector itself that obviously wears away over a period of time. It comes with a 49873 page encyclopedia with instructions on how to fit (due to having instructions in 192 different languages). The package contains the protector itself, a microfibre cleaning cloth, a cardboard thingy to smooth out the bubbles when you fit the protector and a few dust removal stickers.
Fitting was no more difficult or different to any other screen protector, just a case of making sure the screen is perfectly clean/free of dust, then slowly/carefully applying it to the screen & smoothing out the bubbles as you go.
This is a good protector if you're using a bumper case & don't have your screen covered, it will easily handle being in a pocket with other items & should protect the screen quite well. It will probably last at least a couple of months (maybe more, depending on how rough you are with your phone) if you use your phone like this. As I use a flip case, it will probably be good for much longer than this, as the face of the phone won't be exposed to the lining of pockets, keys, loose change, etc, etc.
Now to the question of value. Is it worth the ~$25 or so ? Compared to the $15 protector I had on my phone previously, and given I use a flip case which protects the screen anyways, probably not. I doubt I'll be spending another $25 on one of these when it comes time to get a new screen protector.
But if you're someone who uses bumper cases/etc & likes having a 'nudie' screen, I'd definitely recommend these. Obviously if you only order one from GMarket the shipping will make it a fairly expensive exercise, but you could always order more than one/some other stuff from that site, or find someone on XDA to go dutch on the postage who lives in your country like I did (thanks to Victaaaa for same )
The Zagg invisibleSHIELD is the best in my opinion, uses a fluid that facilitates the placement may be withdrawn and placed if things do not go well the first time, this has the orange peel effect but this in no way affects the image or touch . I used it in the first SGS for 1 year and now I'm using it in SGSll about 8 months.
i recommend sgp ultra crystal too...i am using for 5 months and i have no problem at all...fully satisfied.
Thanks for all recommendations. I couldn't have any time to buy one yet; but I hope I'm going to buy this weekend from a store near here. I'm going to buy Belkin, if I can't find it I will prefer SGP or Zagg.

SGP
I use SGP Ultra Crystal and so far so good.
Zagg is probably the worse of all of them because of its tacky-ness. Also its scratch healing properties wear off after a month or so. The best is the 3M Estoc+ followed by SGP or RG Japan.
sgp ultra, solid choice in my opinion.. can't go wrong
I recommend SGP ultra crystal film or 3M estoc

Diztronic and screen protector

Hey guys just received my matte black diztronic case from amazon! Love it. But like others here have mentioned the zagg HD screen protector doesn't play so nice with this case so I have 2 questions.
1) I am currently using the screen protector that came with the case and the edges don't seem to stay down. And tricks to getting them to lay flat?
2) Do you guys think its necessary to use a screen protector with this case and if so which ones would you guys recommend to use that would fit with this case?
I can post some pics of the case if anyone wants. Have the pebble blue gs3 but I think there's already been quite a few posted.

I don't have my diztronic case yet but maybe you can tuck the screen protector under the case lip?
I would definitely use a screen protector. I've already managed to scratch my screen somehow. Gorilla glass 2 is not scratch proof.

I purchased the Diztronic black matte case with screen protector also. How are your sides not staying down with that screen protector? The included screen protector is a protector that doesn't extend all the way to the edges. I had the same combination on my phone and I had no problems.
I'm now using the Body Glove tpu case with a Reearth screen protector. This combo has been the best so far. Be sure you don't use any wet application screen protectors with a tpu case. They do not play well together and the edges of the screen protector will start to bubble up as the tpu case edges push against the screen protector edges.
Also, most dry application screen protectors for this phone do not extend to the edge of the phone because the edges of the phone curve downward. So if you have a dry application screen protector that extends to the edge, then chances are you will have a problem with the edges staying down as a result of the downward curve of our phone around the edges. There is a company currently manufacturing dry application screen protectors designed to fit the the downward curve of our phones along the edges, however these are currently in pre order.

To be honest I'm not sure why its not staying down. I have bubbles that go to the edge of the screen on the top left and it appears that the whole right edge of the screen protector is not down. Not matter how much I push it down it comes right back up. And I have the protector centered almost perfect on the screen so it shouldn't be because its sloping down because the other side is doing fine so well.
Anyone have any other screen protectors that work with this case? Or even wet ones that don't get close to the edge?

My Clarivue screen protector works fine with the case. It is cut small though, I don't mind it but I know some people do.

Case friendly screen protector?

I usually use the ZAGG invisishields but the one I got for my GS3 is damn near edge to edge which make the edges bunch up when I put my case on. The case I have is pretty standard. Its nothing crazy. All previous phones have left a small gap at the edge of the screen so that the case doesn't come in contact with the protector.
Does anyone know of a good screen protector that will work with a case? I typically prefer applied wet protectors since I find they are more forgiving to install and typically stay on better than the dry ones. I'm open minded though if someone found a dry one that works amazing.
I'm having this problem too with a tpu case I just got.. I have an xoskins protector on right now. I'm trying to remember if I got the 'case fit' or not.. apparently the case fit means its smaller so we won't have this problem of the case peeling up the edges..
Anyways.. I would check them out I'm pretty happy with the protector..

I have the same screen protector and HAD that same problem with my Incipio SILICRYLIC® DualPro. But I went back to my Ringke SLIM lite, and the screen protector doesnt lift. But I had to give up some protection.
I got the zagg hd and it sucks with a case.. Will rip right off once you put the case on.. For now I took it off completely and have the case on

Matte full body protector

Hi im in the uk, ive searched ebay amazon etc and can't find a matte protector for the back of the phone, i need a matte version as i dont want it to look all shiney, its to go with the red draco bumper. Thanks.

dont know if bestskinsever will ship to the uk, but u can ask. His matte body skin is nice. Full matte skin , sides are seperate from the back but the screen is a glossy wet apply screen.
good skins. cant even tell its on with the silver Ones. With the black Ones it doesnt look quite right at first. kindda cloudy, but give it a day or 2 to set and it looks awesome. Even gives a realy nice circular cut protector for the camera lense.

Ordered from their website deliveru to The Netherlands. Ordered on 28th of Maym they have fast shipping and think to the UK would be no problem too.

no pics atm because im using a leather-look vinyl, but I personally like the matte better mainly because the device is already matte so it really doesn't look like you've anything on it. Glossy does provide far more grip tho.
Take your time applying. The corners will not stick at first. Just squeegee out the water as best you can n let the corners air out abit then they'll start to stick.
Alot of people get frustrated when rounded edges and corners dont stick and due to lack of patience can ruin a perfect good install on these type of protectors.
