Has anyone tested out the case and screen protector combo above? Nice price, but how good is the screen protector and also how does the case feel?
Anyone tested these?
Nobody had any experiences with this brand?
Ask again? Lol
The case is nice. Still testing... Note isn't much thicker but screen protector is a piece of ****. Tiny bit too big for the screen (bubbles on the edges and around the screen) and there is no hole for start/home button!!!

Hi,
I own this LGND case from Incipio,
Very good build quality but a bit thick but still ok for my pant's pockets.
Hope it helps.
For me it's nice but too expensive?
is there such thing aside from the spigen curved one? i heard the spigen ones are garbage. i've used skinomi (they were all right, not as durable), they covered 95% of the screen. the zagg invisible shields were garbage, wasted 25$ and thought it covers the whole screen but it left a huge gap.
Try Tippin Screen protector.
tippin is where its at for full curved protectors.. just remember any case that wraps around the edge tightly is probably not compatible
Does this tippin cover as good if not better than SGP Curved Crystal? The reason I ask is the images on Amazon show that it does not cover the portion immediately above the ear speaker. I love the curved crystal except for the dents that won't disappear. Does the tippin have this problem? Thanks!
the tippin pretty much covers all. ear speaker, sensors+camera, and home button are cut out. if you press on it hard enough with your nail, itll leave a dent. will it go away eventually? dont know, probably not. i think the tippin scratches kind of easily. i noticed a small rainbow line. not sure if its a scratched screen protector or cracked glass. another thing about these screen protectors...you have a small margin for error for placement. i was ocd at first and wanted it on 100% perfect alignment. i tried the tape the side method. thought i had it on perfect, but nope. a small sliver didnt stick because it was on slightly to the left. took the whole thing off and could not put it on as good as before. i spent almost an hr, gave up and ended up with even worse alignment. so my advice is get it aligned the way you want it on the 1st try. since these were a ***** to apply, id like a screen protector thats between full and gapped coverage. but the clarity is good and i think it gets slightly less fingerprints than the naked screen.

The Spigen is good. I would say they are far superior to the Skinomi ones.
I went this route. This is now in my top spot for screen protectors.

This is what I use. It covers the entire screen and is smooth. It also seems to repel fingerprints and is somewhat scratch resistent. Most people looking at my phone can't even tell there is a screen protector on it.

Thanks for the recommendations guys. I really like the Sigen Curved Crystal but am annoyed with the dents. When new, it is barely noticeable at all. I really wish this were available in more durable finish. The Seidio glass screen protector looks really nice but will not work with my case (Element Eclipse)
I am assuming the Realook is almost the exact same as the SGP curved crystal. The cutouts look the same and the hardness rating is the same. Do you notice dents that don't go away? If I were to use my fingernail to type, the screen protector would become pitted all over.

I don't notice any dents, but I use swype as my keyboard of choice. Do you push hard when texting? I let my 4 and 6 year old use my phone often, and I still don't notice much wear. There are a couple of tiny scrathes on my screen protector, and they are only noticeable in direct light at certain angles. I have had the protector on for about 3 months. My old protector (Zagg HD) showed fingernail dents and nicks about a week after I put it on.

the realook 3d forming is essentially the same thin material as the SGP curved crystal. It does dent very easily, but I do find that the dents flatten out and get much better after a day or two. It's not self-healing by any means, but the depth of the dents actually decreases and becomes almost invisible to the eye if the original dent isn't very deep. But I would echo everyone's advice on this thread: these full screen protectors most certainly will not work with almost every tpu case. Any tight fitting case will push up the corners of the protector no matter what you do. I learned the hard way and had to throw out 3 of them. So the cheap ebay s-curve/s-line tpu cases, diztronic, and mercury cases will not work with these protectors unless you get very lucky with your placement. Though I have all these cases and none of them worked with the realook 3d forming screen protector

Thanks Jottle. I was thinking it is probably the same material as the curved crystal. I have found 3 cases that the full coverage works with: UAG, Eclipse Element and SGP Modello. I love the look of the full coverage with these cases but with the dents, I have to replace the protector about once every 2 months.

I am currently using the Seidio Surface case with my Realook screen protector. It works without any problems. I have also used the Rock Quicksand case and the Incipio Sylicriic without any issues.

Just wanted to add that I've now tried the Tippin full coverage screen protectors as well. They are incompatible with my case as well. There are some tpu cases that will work with full coverage protectors. But the extremely tight ones that barely cover the corners will not.
Got myself a Google nexus 5 (used to use iPhone), does anyone can recommend me some gadget for nexus 5.
I absolutely love my cruzer lite bugdroid case. v Perfect in every way. Thin, durable, easy to put on, looks great, has a lip, and all ports are easily accesable. I can also tell you not to get the ismooth screen protectors. Mine has tons of scratches on it after a month of normal use.
I am currently using the Spigen Ultra Hybrid case, with a Spigen crystal screen protector. It protects well, and does not add much bulk.
Case: http://www.amazon.com/Spigen-Japanese-Protector-Graphics-Anti-Scratch/dp/B00FJJ38HY (comes with crystal screen protector)
Screen protector: http://www.amazon.com/Spigen-Protec...D6/ref=pd_bxgy_cps_text_y/183-3051436-7253342
BTW, the screen protector is plastic, but is smooth and applies well.
Thanks guys,
I think spigen case looks great (just bought it)! but for screen protector, I found there is brand called rhino shield, looks really awesome, have you guys heard this?
Personally I'm a fan of wet apply protectors. I have used Xtremeguard for a while. They seem to last forever as they are soft and seem akin to trying to scratch jello which just absorbs and reforms. The only difference i find is that they have an almost tacky feel. You become used to this quite quickly,IMO.
Personally i have always used spigens products their re-release of their glas line sp's work exactly like they shold have in the beginning. Case wise you cant go wrong with spigen imo, as for SP if you want dry apply it really depends on how much you want to spend and what you want from teh sp, i cant stand wet apply sps they have a tendency to give an orange peel effect and have a tacky almost rubbery feeling no where near as pleasant to use as the PET dry apply let alone the tempered glass (which feel as if you have nothing on the phone) ive not heard anything specifically about rhinoshield but take a look aroudn the forum and search around i rmr there being several threads talking about rhino shield, i dont recall what they were or what they said or id link you to em.
- cheers
I'm using the SGP crystal hard surface screen protector without using any case :good:
SGP or xtremeguard screen protectors.
This screen protector doesn't cover full screen. Sides could use another mm, top 2-3mm and bottom at least 7mm. Other than that I got it installed perfectly, on the 2nd try. 1st try I had two dust bubbles. One on side I could live with and another in the middle of display. Other than that, this is probably ringke's most slippery screen protector. It almost rivals how slippery power support screen protectors are.
Other than not reaching edges very happy with it. I hate screen protectors that feel grippy. I am going to write an email to Ringke and see if they will make a revision to it. I can live with the sides because they have to accommodate cases and some reach further in than others but they definitely could make this screen protector go away to the the top and bottom and make punch out capsule shaped to accommodate the FFC and sensors. If you can live with your screen protector not going to the extreme on edges then this is the one to get. I can't believe the difference in slickness compared to their previous iterations on other phones. This is one slick screen protector and makes for a smooth touch screen experience.
Ringke fusion case totally changed the feel of this phone. And that is coming from a Ringke onyx case. The onyx definitely offers more protection but the fusion just feels right, phone is in a see through dress, just right grippy and not as bulky. Try it.
Hey Everyone, just thought I'd put my two cents out there since we are all searching for the perfect screen protector and cases. I ordered the Poetic Revolution in white from amazon and their Tempered glass hoping they'd work good together.

Okay so the case is a pretty rugged case with a nice lip around the screen. The tempered glass fits in the case well. I popped out the plastic built in screen protector on the case since I'm a tempered glass guy. The case is well made and matches my white pixel 3 xl well Very similar to the Supcase Unicorn Beetle pro's I've had and I-blason armorbox but not as bulky as those. Volume and power buttons are super clicky without much force and thats nice. The sides are a nice texture. Its pretty grippy.
The tempered glass is a edge adhesive type with the black border and it works pretty well. Good cut outs and fits the screen well. Will have to see how strong the glue is in long term use. I wish they included a bigger wet wipe, since the one included is tiny and not super damp. Other than that it works pretty well. It's dot matrix and sensitivity is pretty good. Only a tiny bit of rainbowing but some is expected with the edge adhesive type. Honestly ill take that over bubbles and this has none. Overall I'm very happy with it considering I've seen some really terrible glass protectors on here and XDA lol.

I have this case too, the built in screen protector is OK, a LITTLE loose when the weather is cold so you can feel your finger "catch" sometimes. Also worth mentioning that the edge sense is still ok to use. I was worried with how sturdy the build is that it might not activate but this is not the case. I have ordered the stand but my understanding is that wireless charging should also not be an issue. The poetic tempered glass has a 2 star rating on amazon right now so I was worried to try that.
