Dear All,
After fitting a genuine HTC screen protector to my One X and being dissappointed that it didn't completely fit the screen. I am again in the hunt for a screen protector. I know the One X has Gorilla Glass 2, but with the mixed reviews, I'm unsure if the screen will scratch or not??..
With that said, can some recommend me a screen cover that entirely covers the whole screen of the OneX?
BTW I have a genuine HTC 700 clear case.
Your help and assistance is greatly appreciated.
Winny :fingers-crossed:
The SGP oleo screen protector is not an exact fit but I don't really notice that it is a tad bit small. The screen and buttons are protected and that's what counts.
Oh and it feels as smooth as the original screen.

Thanks for that, yeah the reviews do say it's not an exact fit.
I am looking for a near perfect fit. Can anyone recommend one?

According to this video Zagg Invisible Shield HD screen protector will nearly cover the whole screen. I wanted something like this too but, ordered SGP Ultra Thin Air Case which comes with a SGP Ultra Oleophbic LCD screen protector.

I have a bestskinsever screen protector and it goes almost to the edge. Use a wet install type one, NONE of the standard protectors can go to the very edge because of the curvature of the glass, ONLY the wet/flexible type ones can cover the entire screen.

Hi guys, recently I got two official HTC screen protectors which I applied terribly and removed. Could anyone kindly suggest a certain screen protector or other form of protection which is working well for them? I have the official HTC pouch and back cover too.

Thanks for telling me about film protectors, are they better than screen protectors, and if they are, in what way are they better?
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Film protectors offer better protection & are less likely to peel off at the corners if caught.
Most film protectors actually take a bit of strength to remove.
They are not a dry application, (which I prefer), meaning a can constantly work st it to get it perfect.
Pushing out the water is a much easier way of removing bubbles than on a dry skin.
Films have self-healing technology whereas 'standard screen protectors' do not, this means if scratched - by tomorrow at the latest, that scratch is gone.
Either way, im waiting for a wet application protector, Skinomi have said they are waiting for the release date (not out in the states yet grrr)
I'll just have to be careful til then I think.
Although gorilla glass 2 should be fine without a screen protector, I'd feel a whole lot better with one!

It'll only take a small drop of water which will spread across the screen when the film is applied. As long as you're careful not to get water leak into the holes, there won't be any damage. Apply the drop of water closer to the bottom just in case, since the speaker grill and camera holes are at the top of the screen.
Usually, though, the protectors will come with a 'installation solution' in a convenient, spray-bottle.

i used the HTC ones and put it on perfect no problem, only reason its a little tricky is that it only has one tab and not one each side :/ but then i got a replacement x and didn't do the second one so well but meh i can get more at a latter date
This is a great screen, even better than my SG2.
I never put one on my SG2 and had no major issues with scratches on the display.
I have used my HTC One X now for almost two weeks now, with no screen protector and there is not a single blemish on my screen.
I won't be putting any screen protector on my device, as they always distract from the full experience of the display, IMO!
You can put one on if you like, but you don't need one on this device.
I picked up a One X yesterday from the T-Mobile store and today noticed it had like two tramline scratches across the screen..you can feel them if you run your fingernail over them....although the phone was of course sold as new, the sim removal tool was detached from the plastic and there was fingermarks on the glass underneath the plastic cover they put on them.
Thankfully T-Mobile are sending a replacement on Tues as it also keeps jamming up...back to using my Sensation XE for a bit. Hopefully as they asking for the entire box back they will be sending out a new phone and not a refurb, if they exist yet.
Only thing I can think is a faulty return handset made it into the new stock by mistake.
Still curious how you could mark the glass in this way though !

Yup, Gorilla Glass is harder to scratch, but by no means impossible, and can possibly still be scratched fairly easily. Coming from another device with GG (and hearing reports on other GG phones that I don't own), there have been plenty of people reporting scratching GG with normal use; while others claim pristine GG even after significant abuse and drops.
To each his own, its a matter of how much you prefer the bareback look and feel, versus having some protection. But to me, a good quality screen protector has very little change in feel, little or no change in the look; and its better to have the protection rather than end up with permanent scratches and regret. Good screen protectors also don't build up fingerprint smudges as easily as bare glass.

I'm using mumbi CrystalClear over here and it does a pretty well job. Though it looks like the protector is too small for the screen, you quickly learn that it has to be this way because the display is curved at the edges.
Love it or not, I guess most display protectors will look like this

No, wet application screen protectors wil cover everything.
It's similar to the Galaxy Nexus with the curved glass, only wet application ones will keep all the edges etc...smooth and perfect.
And yea, to people who think that just because it's gorilla glass it's not going to scratch. A tiny grain of sand is enough to give it an annoying blemish. You don't need a case IMO, but a screen protector is always a must.
They have it available now..

I just ordered mine, best looking screen protectors out there imo..now if I could just get that dreaded sim card issue fixed.
Can you recommend some screen protector without sticky surface? I bought cheap Insmat dry application protector, but it's not a perfect fit. A bit too large so sides won't stick and hard to get bubbles away. I would also like to have more slippy surface..
I know that many people have been saying that they wouldn't be getting screen protectors. I, being very paranoid, had to get one to protect my screen. I had been using the phone without anything on the screen for a month, but still wanted a shield. I went to Best Buy yesterday, an purchased the shield, an it isn't like the others. The older invisible shields had a feel and look to them that you could tell it was there. This new Invisible Shield HD, however, is literally like nothing is there. The screen looks and feels the exact same as it did before I bought it, but is much stronger. So those of you that weren't planning on getting a screen protector, take a look at this Invisible Shield HD, you won't be dissapointed.

There's more than one? I got the screen only one, I know there was also the full body one.
Sent from my HTC One X
The "case friendly" version is the Zagg HD. It also has other added benefits like being nearly invisible, thinner, and will zero orange peel effect. The other one is the regular Zagg, covering the full front of the device, but not made of the same glass like surface so it will feel rubbery and definitely be visible.

Look around in some of the previous screen protector threads. Many users have reported getting small scratches on the screen. Therefore I think a screen protector is essential. Screen protectors can degrade the quality a little, but clear type ones do not take that much away. I am a big fan of matte screen protectors (they are the worst in terms of screen quality degradation) but what good is a screen if its filled with finger prints and cant read under glare ? I personally prefer a legible clean screen over a sharper smudgy one. So quality is a highly subjective matter. Unfortunately I didn’t come across a wet install type matte screen protector yet, so I went with a clear type one. To my surprise it does quite well repelling fingerprints. Better than not having one.

Scratching and breaking are two different things. I'm sure the screen is pretty tough, but that doesnt mean its scratch proof.
@OP
Most regular (dry install) type screen protectors wont fit properly with the curved edges of One X, therefore some manufacturers (i.e: SGP) make them much smaller than the actual screen size; but the problem is then you can clearly see the edge of the protector. I’d recommend a wet install type instead, they usually go right to the edge and don’t cause bubbling. I am using this. Its pretty good for the price.

Oh no, i had a protector smaller than the screen of my galaxy nexus and it had so much dirt on the borders, i will make sure to get one that covers the whole screen
Ive done a bit more reasearch, the ZAGG HD is sold ONLY through bestbuy , and the sgp protectors for the one x are only dry applications, not wet but what-s the difference between the flex and the oleophobic?
oleophobic resists the oil from your hands and is supposed to smudge less. You can get zagg HD from their web site cheaper than what you can buy them for at best buy. I ordered the Spigen slim case for mine and it came with an oleophobic screen protector. It was easy to apply but I happen to like SPG's screen protectors.
Which one covers the whole screen and is hardest to tell that it Its there. Also one that gives most protection

Guys I got this phone 2 days ago and bought a Vikuiti Clear Screen protector. The protector looks fine but is useless. The buttons on the bottom of the screen dont work if they are covererd with the protector.
Has anyone found a protector that works with this screen?
Hello,
I have a different opinion about screen protectors, in my opinion you should get a case for your One instead of screen protector because gorilla glass is really working well.
But if you still want to get screen protector, you should be able to find HTC's official protector in one of their retail sellers.

No what I found is that I need to select the home button a couple of times sometimes before my touch is detected. It is inconsistent though. I have ordered a matt screen protector which should arrive tomorrow so will switch and see if there is a difference.

I'm finding the same with the HTC protectors. Home and Back often need a couple of prods to register. Also, I dunno if it was slightly too big by a mm or so, but they don't seal down the edges properly and make it look fugly.
I've ordered some other cheap-brand ones to try with instead...
I found the HTC official ones a pile of crap
Both ended up in the bin, wouldnt stick at the edges of the phone and were terrible. Amazon UK now has a few bad reviews for them, when I ordered before the phone arrived there were none. Re ordered some others, they can't be worse than the HTC ones
Anyone have any experience with previous Spigen SGP screen protectors?
Or their glass (GLAS.t) glass screens?

Was tempted to buy but I am concerned with the silicon adhesive that it uses to stick itself to the screen. Wondering if it would leave any residue or anything behind if taken off?
Matt
These are good value and work well http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/321090064869?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
The screen protector is not too matt and as usual assume you'll make a mistake with the first one. The size is very precise and you do need to line-up with the edges carefully to make sure the screen protector is sealed all round. Much better than the HTC ones.

Does this one affect the sensitivity of the capacitive buttons at all?
Those who have installed a screen protector on their phones .
Did you face any issue with capacitive buttons below the screen ?

Just received them today.

Size wise - perfect width, but too short on length, around 2mm. Pretty matte alright. Looks like nice anti-fingerprint.
Worst part though - it adds something like "RGB grain/noise" to your screen, which is clearly visible especially on white background. Total disaster... And it's visible even from normal viewing distance... I will try to add some photos later.
It's only quick temporary solution for me, before I will get Spigen Ultra Clear.
I previously had HTC oem screen protector on this phone ...poor adhesion and grease magnet. I bought this matte screen protector from imyth at Amazon UK. Good fit, easy application and cheap...only about £2 for a pack of 5. Yes, there is a little brush noise when swiping but I would have that with any matte protector - sgp too. I am happy with it. Good clear image, looks professional and less fuss with fingerprints. Plus it is an eighth of the price of my usual sgp ultra optics.
Here is the imyth seen with and without double dip case (below):

You're right about the colour change. Didn't mention that as I've had that with matt protection. May try another make, perhaps ultra clear.

I have had intermittent reduced sensitivity issues with and without the screen protector. Plus, I've used two types of screen protector and had same experience. I think it is an issue with the phone. I hope HTC can fix this.

Fosman
For those in the US The Fosmon Crystal Clear Screen Protector Shield for HTC One / HTC M7 - 3 Pack is on sale at Amazon and Newegg for $1.97 with free shipping through SF Planet. I had great luck with all Fosman accessories.
I have used Ghost Armor and it is great. No orange peel effect at all. Crystal clear.
