Official bumper case and which tempered glass protection? - Nexus 5 Accessories

I have been researching on here and have read that some of the tempered glass screen protector don't place nice with the official bumper case.
For those who use the official bumper case with tempered glass screen protector. Which are you using and why?

Before my official bumper started to look like crap and me throwing it away I used Spigen's glass with no issues with the official bumper.

I am also in the same boat as the OP. I have the nexus bumper case and have concerns about the lip of the bumper lifting up the screen protecter. After spending £25 i am hesitant in investing more money on a second case

Tempered Glass screen shield REVIEW (VITREO)

Hey guys,
Got this new case and looks pretty good. One issue I found on old ones is that the screen kinda becomes unresponsive but this one feels pretty good
Check the video :

The purpose of the screen shield?? To protect your original glass.

It is glass , not gorilla glass. So an impact will def break the shield..but thats the whole point of it, to protect your phone's screen
It feels strong

Whats the purpose of a tempered glass SCREEN SHIELD? ...im not sure...
Does it replace the glass in the phone already, if not is there any possible way to do that. Like put a better piece of glass in the phone.

Jesus Christ, it it a screen protector made out of glass. It does not replace anything, you apply it like a regular screen protector BUT IT IS MADE OF GLASS. SMH.
Can anyone comment on how the glass fits with a case? Specifically with the Incipio Silicrylic cases and generic tpu cases that have a lay on table design?

It fits good because it doesnt go all the way to the border of the screen itself
from seidio site :
This product is compatible with our ACTIVE®, ACTIVE® with Metal Kickstand, and ACTIVE® Extended with Metal Kickstand
I tried it with a tpu case and it did work (diztronic)
Update :
Im fully used to it .The screen is holding very good.. feels pretty solid. sensitivity still there and stays very easy to clean.
Light reflection is just like if it was naked.
So far so good
I'm curious if this would work with the otterbox defender after the crap plastic one is removed on the case. I'm looking for an alternative right now and if this would fit with the defender I would be happy indeed
I don't see why it wouldn't

My main concern would be if the plastic shell would close on top of it because of the thickness of the glass
UAG?
Has anyone tried it on a UAG case?

I have a few questions about this protector I was hoping someone could answer:
1. I recall reading about another glass protector and people complaining there was a grid of dots on it. Is this one completely clear or is there any pattern on it?
2. Does it have an oleophobic coating as good as the naked glass? I've currently got a DBA protector on mine and finger grease is both more noticeable and much harder to wipe off than the naked screen.
3. Would this type of case hide or reduce the visibility of scratches already on the screen? The DBA case does that quite well. It just has too many other issues.
4. Does it come in blue?
Thanks!

I have x-gears spectre tempered glass with UAG and it fits. But the right side when using the power button can make the protector lift a bit. No big deal you have to press it dwn again.

Tempered glass friendly cases

Since i bought my nexus 5 I already equipped my phone with momax pro glass screen protector (0.3mm thickness) but I am worried if it will prevent me from buying fitted cases like spigen slim armor. any advice?

i installed today the MIME screen glass protector.... the .15m one... and i got also the spigen slim armor...no issues with fitment. it cleared the case just fine
Sorry I wasn't clear. Slim armor fits fine doesn't mess with it at all and the ultra hybrid would push it up causing bubbles to form around the edges and the thickness of the screen protector was .27mm

Currently using cheap ebay protector 0.3mm(?) with diztronic tpu case no problems.
My N5 has a Spigen GLAStR Slim on it and the official Nexus Bumper Case fits fine. The Diztronic TPU case interfered with the screen protector, making the edges lift up at the corners.

Using the Spigen SlimTr - no issues with the Ringke Fusion or Spigen Slim Armor cases

my tempered glass protector sits perfectly fitted in my Ultra Hybrid case. Check the alignment of your glass protector, is it perfectly centered?
Just bought the slim armor too, will try it over the next few days.

I have the poetic palette case and the spigen glas.tr
Working fine - the glas is a smidge smaller than the screen, the case doesn't contact it.

I have the otterbox defender case with the verizon glass screen protector that was included with the bundle at time of purchase. so far, so good. if this screen protector breaks i will immediately get the zagg glass screen protector. unless of course the zagg goes on sale soon

Yes. I use the Zagg and you need to remove the one o the Otterbox. The screen protector on the Otterbox is attached using a thin bead of silicone similar to the glue used to attach address labels to magazines.
Separate the two Otterbox halves and remove the protector by pushing on a corner of the protector from the outside. Once the corner is loose, slowly peel the protector off, trying to keep the bead of glue attached to the protector.

Best pouch case & tempered glass..?

Hi guys!
I'm searching for a good pouch case and a tempered glass for the G3.
Any suggestions (from eBay/Amazon)?
Zagg for tempered glass

I've only had it installed for a week, but I'm very happy with my Tech Armor ballistic glass screen protector. Easy to install and nice coverage, and fingerprints wipe off easily.
Try esty for pouch.
Look at MediaDevil for a nice pouch

Case & Screen Protection

I'm posting this here because the accessories section keeps crashing. What's the best options out there?

Spigen without a doubt. Love their cases.

Otterbox is my usual, but with this phone I'm getting Urban Armor.
Spigen cases are nice but they don't seem to be as well built as Incipio cases. The spigen tpu case for the Edge+ fits loose and is really flimsy while the Incipio tpu case is much more rigid and snug. Incipio gets my vote in terms of quality. I've also seen a few full coverage curved tempered glass screen protectors on ebay!

Using spigen slim armour and the fit is fantastic
Sent from my Gorgeous S6 Edge Plus
Well the slim armor case is a two part case. I was referring to the all tpu version. Not saying Spigen cases aren't good I just think Incipio cases are built a little better....
I want to get something that will show off the back color, but still provide protection. I did get the full body Invisible Shield.

I just want something that will protect it. Especially from dust and rain. I'm outdoors all day. I just Google that urban armor and it looks sweet. But I'm probably gonna get a spigen.
