Please everyone i am confused
what is the best one ?
SGP ultra crystal Screen Protector
or
SPG Glas Screen Protector
which one last longer ?
and which one effect less at the sensitivity of the touch screen ??
which one has less chance to bubbles appears ?
which one having less problem at all than other ??
please i would like to decide ASAP
I use the SGP Glas. It looks cool and offers really good protection. Now maybe I didn't do the great job putting the screen on, but sometimes, I have to push the screen harder than I'd like to for the phone to register. When I notice this happening, I usually smooth the screen down with my shirt and it seems to work fine. Haven't used the other protector, so I can't comment there.

i had the SGP ULTRA CRYSTAL and then replaced it with the SGP GLAS and i am very impressed with the SGP GLAS it combines a very very good protection, a very good feel, no color Distortion and also a very hard to scratch surface.
i also had the sensitivity problem but after looking at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1142141
i saw this:
*Screen Sensitivity Issues with SGP Glas*
This has been tackled many times on different threads and even SGP admits it on the Glas product page.
Flashing your phone with a custom kernel, like ninphetamine, is already available that corrects this sensitivity issue.

so i installed the ninphetamine kernel and it did fixed the probelm and after that i installed the speedmode kernel that also has this fix but in my opinion is better.
so after fixing the sensitivity problem my opinion is that the SGP GLAS is absolutely amazing on all aspect (no color distortion, good feel like the original screen, no affect on sensitivity and of course a very good screen protection).
Thanx friends ,
tell me please about the SPG Glas .. what is the expected life time of it ?
i mean how long it last on my phone ??
is it last longer or zagg screen shield ?
because i used zagg on my older phone
it's more than year and it still good
zagg provide endless Guarantee , what about glas one ??
so what about Glas life time ? longer , shorter or the same ??
i decided to order 2 SGP GLAS pieces and Neo Hybrid tomorrow
but i would like to know first about the life time of it
waiting asap friends
I got a GLAS not too long ago as well. The actual screen protector is made with glass, so I don't see why it shouldn't last longer than the regular conventional screen protectors. I actually purchased the ultra oleophobic not too long ago, which resists oil. The GLAS has the same properties, so I'm pretty glad with the product so far.
and actually, regarding the ultra crystal, I used the one they included when i bought my hybrid sgp case, and even though you can't beat the clarity, i didn't like the stickiness of the film. The GLAS is def. more smooth.
Ultra crystal is cheap, but doesn't protect against oil, leading to rainbow effects, and any imperfection in the cut will have those annoying vertical lines, as well as incredibly clarity on every piece of dust you trapped with the screen protector.
The SGP Glas is nice, I just applied it, however, it's not as nice as a true anti-oleophobic protector, it doesn't fit perfectly, as in I lined up all the sensors and camera, but the capacitive buttons don't line up with the lights, and it's impossible to line it up perfectly, which makes me wish i had steadier hands/better eyesight. But even if it's off a little bit, it's still damn good. It also will demand you to root your phone, since Samsung wants the charger to charge the phone instead of pick up your touchscreen commands.
TL;DR: You get what you pay for.
Just wondering, does anybody put a screen protector on top of the SGP GLAS? Getting mine soon.

Well, first of all you paid $40 for this thing and it's like another screen not screen protector (film). I had a terrible experience with SGP oleophobic screen protectors. Got scratched day one.

Not everyone likes their screen protectors glossy, but extra tampered glass in front of the screen to absorb the initial impact (if it comes to that) can be handy.
The Glas however, only comes glossy.
So yes, call me strange but I use a screen protector (SGP Optics) on top of a screen protector (Glas) and the SGS2 screen is taking it like a champ. Except for the capacitive buttons lol.

I have the glas. I'll remove it as soon as I receive my shadowskinz one.
Glas was fine for the first 2 days then a bubble/black dot that appeared in the middle. I can remove it but as soon as I put it in my pocket it reappear.
Dunno if it's the heat in my pocket but it's not that great.
I tried the SGP ultra clear one it was a little better than glas but not enough. If my shadowskinz sick, it's gonna be a Zagg.

yes.
www.xgearlive.com
when they first announced them, they had them in clear, now it's either in pebble blue or the marble white, the cost is USD 29.99.
I have emailed them about the clear one's, they replied back to me.
"We were unable to go with the clear as it was having issues."
I cannot see what the issue was.
anyway there is another glass protector to be released which should be better that the above one and sold in clear, the one xgear live has a hardness of 8N, this new one has the hardness of 9N, whiles 10N being the strongest.
The new one being made by tg films, they already have the iphone version on the market, and say a s3 version will be available soon.
this is the site, but seems it's down ATM.

I bet the they got rid of clear ones because with clear one you can see the bubbling around the edges. With solid color you can't see it.

may be, but with the colour one's if the colour is not printed straight or is slightly off, you may notice it.
i'll wait for the tg film and if sgp does make one, i'll check it out.
The email I received stated that it would be a black background but of course clear over the camera/sensors/ports.
The white one is white and the blue one is black.
Here's the image of the black redesign:

Does anyone know where to get matte/flat/anti glare screen protector for the SIII? I've been looking everywhere and I can't find any. I don't need it for "screen protecting" purposes, I'm very careful with my phones. I just had one on my Sensation, and I loved the "flat" screen effect. It also offered less friction resistance.
Thanks in advance.

I love these screen protectors,and they work really great.
I should be getting them either tomorrow or or the next day. I will let you know how the SPs on the first link are.
Thanks guys. I want something with a better fit. I don't like those with the overly generous cuts on the top. My mistake for not mentioning.

All good. But if you want a matte screen protector to cover the whole screen. you're gonna have a hard time finding one.
I've order one that covers the whole screen but it lifts up on the edges.

I know its about personal preference but why would anyone want to put a matte or flat on a screen as beautiful this one? That is one of the best features of this device in my mind..simply amazing. I hate having to put a screen protector on period but I don't want to scratch the screen so I use a screen protector that is as clear as the screen or at least close to. Anyways just my point of view.
You should be able to find your type of screen protector on amazon and sgp may have one that suits your needs. I know I saw a couple at Verizon Wireless store

Yeah as much as i don't want to use a screen protector, i can't avoid it because my hands get sweaty at times and i hate it when my fingers stick to the screen. That's why i use anti glare sp. Swyping is annoying when my fingers are sweaty

because he prefers function over form. The matte screen protectors reduce glare and finger smudges. The plain glass smudges and can be hard to see with glare in certain situations
Here you go -
http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/sa...een-protector-steinheil-ultra-nano-clear.html
(The one you want is "Nano Optics" under Select Color option)
I hate the dotted and rainbow colors on the matte protectors ... Have been using "Ultra Optics" from SGP on each phone I have ever had ... they are smooth as hell, no screen distortion at all ..
Trust me .. you wont be disappointed
Quote-
SPIGEN SGP Steinheil™ Ultra Nano Optics
SGP Steinheil™ Ultra Nano Optics: Anti-Fingerprint, Premium Grade Optical Enhanced Screen Protector Film that feature microlens Array surface layer. Microlens Array on the surface of the matte anti-fingerprint film dramatically increase the light transmittance while offering an excellent, smooth surface texture with smudge resistant property.
Thinking of buying this sick awesome white screen protector. Any1 bought this before?? Only downside of this awesome screen protector is that it coved the led notification light.

I have it. Mine is also in white. The anti finger print film is really nice however, I it comes at the cost of giving your screen protector a different smooth matte finish/look. So what that means is that if you are the type of fellow that keeps his nexus at minimal brightness, and don't bother with this protector. The matte finish will make your screen seem not as dark.
Also, for some reason the protector doesn't cover the whole front. It intentionally leaves a black ring of glass around the protector.. It makes it look really nice at the expense of a not fully protected screen. I like mine cus it fits well with my white housing .
Oh right finally on my version (idk if they have another white version) the white portion is has a white flowers texture aka its not completely smooth
Hope this helps

Pictures would be of mighty help, I'd love to pick up something like this and I'm a guy who prefers it the screen to be..brighter rather than dark would that be an issue? how about outdoor readability? and does it create a crappy rainbow effect like cheaper anti glare/ fingerprint protectors?
I went ahead and bought a white 1. I will post pic when it come...I also have the white housing and original button and back cover. Might spray paint those to make my entire phone pure white....99%

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.
