I just installed this screen protector in 5 minutes, no bubbles, streaks or imperfections. It fits great with the case. Highly recommend this combo. Phone is protected all around now.
Hard to tell there is a screen protector. Pics do not do this justice. Bought mine off Amazon.
let me buy your 2nd one off of you i live north of you in hayward!
i'm just kidding im ordering mine as we speak
Wow how did you do that? I got them today and tried putting on it was installed perfectly then the D3O case caused bubbles in top right corner. The only way around this was to cut the top right and left corners off. Does yours not form bubble even when you hit power key?

If I hit power thr SP doesn't pop up/bubble at all. It might be the case. This ebay case had some space to allow a SP.
looks awesome, mind linking where you bought those two things off of amazon? every TPU case I find seems to only be for the AT&T model.

Same here.
Realook + D3O = bubbles on the corners.
Awesome. This is what I have been waiting for. Will shop today. Thanks!
Update.
Wait a minute. Amazon does not seem to have one that would fit my phone. The one I saw is for intl version of SGS2 not for US T-Mobile version. Are they out there yet?

Damn, this could be a deal breaker. I was thinking about going with this one instead of the Zagg but not sure now. I'm a D30 owner as well and currently have the bubbles with the crappy T-Mobile SP.

Realook was a MISTAKE
Ordered from Amazon ($12), received and applied Realook screen protector just today, I was able to make it right first time. Indeed it looked awesome.
Big dissapointment came when I inserted a phone back to D3O cover. The tight cover edges are snapping against the screen protector edge all around the screen causing protector to come off on these edges.
They should put a warning that with this protector you may not be able to use your phone case. Waste of time and money, unless you want to use your phone "naked". Not me, filed a claim on Amazon want my money back. Tight fit is a big mistake. I will hunt for the protector which has some edge exposed like on my old Vibrant.
That may be more of an issue with the D30 case then the screen protector. Every time I put the D30 case on mine, it causes bubbles on the t-mobile screen protector. I only use the case at work now, until I find a slimmer one.

I would recommend a ghost armor sp. I experienced the same issue with the old t-mobile sp and my D30. Switched over to the ghost armor which has a little room all the way around the screen so in turn works out much better with the D30. Of course it's a much better sp as well!

is that screen protector anti finger prints and oily fingers??
No, it is clear unvisible protector so anything that stays on bare screen will be seen on the protector.
I never use those anti-smear protectors because they just make screen fuzzy. I am not paying for a high resolution screen smartphone to get it screwed up by some cheezy protector shield. But I understand it works for some people and I respect it.

Tip of getting them up good...
Run a hot shower in your bathroom and steam up the room. The steam will remove all the dust particles in the air which is the cause for bubbles that cannot be removed.
Then apply the protector. I usually pull just the back off a little at the top. Line it up and scroll down with a credit card to the bottom. If you still have bubbles just work them out pushing them to the side, top or bottom of the device. As long as there is no dirt or dust under the skin you will be able to get rid of them.
I always use the dry application protectors. I find that they always leave a weird film on the screen. You can really see what I am talking about when you remove one of these from you phone.
Some might say a tip would be to not use one.

Some might reply to that tip and say they should read about what happens to unprotected screens.
Put it on outside you wont get dust under it.
While I did just start another thread complaining about ZAGG type screen/body protectors I will admit that certain ones offer excellent screen protection. Extreme Guard can be had on Ebay for about $5 for most phones, Nexus included and they're awesome. Very low smudge, and fingerprints. They're cut well and despite the pain of wet install screen protectors they are much easier to install than body protectors. I would recommend them.

Do tell.
What happens to unprotected screens? I've had my Nexus since Jan. with no screen protector. It attracts finger prints but that's not a problem when you have micro fiber cloth (or your pant leg).
I'm not damage prone so to each his own, I guess.
Sent from the future.
Tried the steam method etc.worked a treat. No bubbles.didn't do the shower though waste water lol.was having a coffee so held it a metre above the kettle and it worked fine. Only for 5 seconds or so ..don't want to damage her!

Or get a reusable screen protector.
I had the Boxwave one, i'm able to remove dust by using some tape and time.
Realook screen protectors. They're awesome. I have them on my Rezound, and they'll definitely be on the nexus when I get it too. I went to Florida the other day, had my phone in a bag on the beach, and of course sand gets everywhere, and scraped up the screen protector pretty good. Not a single mark on the actual screen though. Plus it feels almost exactly like the glass on the phone.

No screen protector is perfect so far. The only two I'd recommend are XO, and Martin Fields. XO is a wet application with a rubbery feeling. You might be irritated with the feeling, if so get Martin Fields. Martin Fields are dry app and matte finished, however it conducts fingerprint and oil like magnets. I went with Martin Fields.
Where abouts are you in the UK?
I have an unwanted XOSkin screen protector for the GNex. Its the one that goes to the screen edge.
Ill sell it for the price they are selling it for.. You save on postage... although if your too far away then nevermind
How much are they?

My martin fields is a glossy finish, didn't know they had two different versions.
I would say Martin Fields has the best fit and finish. I have always had better luck with the dry application protectors. The wet applied ones always have a strange uneven surface that always looks like crap.

I don't care either way really. Pretty careful with it, but I don't mind the extra protection.

This is the right way to do it.
The static from what you're peeling off gets rid of any lint that will end up on your screen, which reduces bubbles. I didn't believe it until I got a perfect application a few days ago. This was with a really cheap screen protector too (I ended up taking it off, it got scratched in like a day...lol).
Also...you can tape some handles on the screen protector to avoid your hands actually touching the sticky side. This is key, IMO. Any time you touch the side, you are at risk for lint.
I just recently put on an invisible shield... i dropped my phone shortly after. Now there are two thin cracks on the phone. Very straight and thin. I cant tell if its a screen crack (i think it is) or just a defect in the screen protector (i hope it is). Aghhhh

Lol well I want them to be in the US cause I stay in the US.
In my experience all screen protectors are pretty much the same. I got one free with my £0.99 case I got off ebay and it's perfect. As long as you apply it properly ensuring there's no bubbles or anything it should be fine. You have 3 in case you mess up the first 2 applications and for $1.65 you can't go wrong!

False. Some are just horrible. Some are cut horribly. Some just lift. Only a couple are half decent.
I've used several ZAGG protectors before - they are a little pricey, but have a lifetime warranty (if it peels off, they'll replace it) and work really well. I got mine replaced for free when a corner peeled off after 1 year of use.

I got a techarmor anti-fingerprint/anti-glare screen protector. 3 for about $12. they work decently but do distort the screen image a bit due to the material its made out of
I use xtreme guard protectors and I love them. They're wet mount, so you use slightly soapy water, but I find that it's a lot easier to remove bubbles when applying a wet mount protector. I never have issue with them peeling. I had to trim some of the edges to get it to fit my TPU case, and even then, it doesn't peel.
I picked 'em up online for $1 ea. Highly recommended

I'm looking for a screen protector that covers the entire front of the phone rather than just the screen itself. And I'm looking for one that can be removed and re-applied, because I can NEVER apply them properly the first time without getting dust and air bubbles (even if just a couple) trapped underneath it. I've tried it many times with my current phone and other phones, and I just can't get it right. And since I keep a screen protector on for several months, at the least, it's a long time to have to stare at a wrongly-applied screen protector.
I learned about the iVisor (http://www.amazon.com/iVisor-Screen-Protector-Protection-Samsung/dp/B008I59S34) which meets these requirements, but reading the reviews makes it appear not so great. I saw some other screen protectors mentioned on this forum but they were with a strong matte finish which really reduces clarity and sharpness of the screen image, rather than a clear finish which doesn't do that.
Can you recommend such a screen protector, if they exist?
(Btw, I've never had a screen protector that covers the entire front of the phone rather than just the screen. Does it cause any problems because it covers up the buttons or camera or speaker or anything like that?)
Thanks.
Answer is yes try USA Ebay .

Maybe this: http://www.amazon.com/Tridea-Protec...15&keywords=curved+screen+protector+galaxy+s3
It doesn't cover the button or speaker, though...
In Canada we have ghost armour. It covers the front screen with holes for all the sensors. Buy it once and they will re apply it for 5 bucks everything you want a new one.

Any particular recommendations you have on this? Thanks.
I buy tech Armor screen protectors. Amazon sells them for about $7 /3 pack. They hold up well, and they have clear and anti-glare versions.
First i used spigen curved crystal which was cool at first. But dents easily. Youll see markings when something sharp hits the sp.
Then i switched to realook 3d forming just now. Fits great. My phone looks like without SP. Very clean. I had several tries before i had a good fit, but the SP still managed so well.

Has anyone been able to purchase the stock original screen protector that came with the phone? I swear I saw it briefly on Samsung Canada site under accessories page but it's no where to be found now.
Stock protector feels so smooth once you applied a oleophobic coating on it! Not to mention perfect fitment for the phone.

I believe they're 18.99 for Samsung UK (ET-FG975CTEGWW). Samsung US has a supply of them, but they are not accessible via sales.
It is 19.99 here in the States.
I was able to purchase one but not going to get it shipped till 4/5.

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.

I'm using the screen protector for a while, No orange peel effect. And it is not a glass protector, It's a plastic protector as you know it's more smooth than glass.

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!
Otao Screen Protector for S10 Plus
I always liked the GLASS Otao Screen Protectors so I thought I would try the plastic one when it came out on Amazon. To Be honest, I was very pleasantly surprised.
Easy to install (Dry install and not wet) and there were no bubbles or any issue after I installed. I have been using it with a Case (Ringe Crystal Fusion) for about a week and I am very happy with it. Fingerprints work fine with it.

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
