X-PROTECTIONS Nexus 5 Premium Tempered Glass - Lowest price - Review Updated

http://www.xprotections.com/products/Google_Nexus_5_Screen_Protector_Premium_Tempered_Glass.htm
$3.15 + $4 shipping = $7.15. Still the lowest price for tempered glass I've ever seen. They also have for another model like Samsung S5 or iPhone 5S.
No review yet. Pretty much new company. From China of course. (not surpised when it come to this price). Look around and OMG, price start at $2. I know this may be crap but seriously, this is so cheap, dirt cheap.
Some infos I found from this company:
http://www.gcoupon.com/view/companies/248074/Xprotections.html
From Mar 2014.
Short review:
The package was fine. The glass have oleophobic coating for sure. This glass fit very well in my screen without any bubble, not like a Nillkin. Just remove my Nillkin and apply without any issues. For someone who said the nexus 5 screen is a hole's problem, not the Nillkin glass, I am highly doubt it. In fact, I may got a lemon with this Nillkin. Anyway, the screen is perfect fit and so smooth. I am so satisfied.
The quality is solid. Below is a picture of this glass's thickness. I cannot say much about it's quality now as I just received it today, will update the review after few weeks using. But first impression was good and nothing to complain
It came with cleaning kit like other tempered glass.
The shipping speed was fast. It's China Post Air Mail but only 9 days (include weekend).
I can say with this price range this thing is amazing value. Highly recommend.
Here are some picture when I open the package. Sorry I don't have a camera to make a vid when apply it, but this thing is pretty similar like Nillkin glass. I will get more photo when I borrow one from my bro.

If you had posted this yesterday, I would have totally tried it, but I just ordered a Nillkin . I may regret the decision soon.

I got a Nillkin too, but after about 10 times applied and re-applied my screen still had a big hole in the bottom (not affect the screen view), which is so annoying for me so I got this to replace. If this sucks I lost 7 bucks and apply the Nillkin back. After all it's just 7 bucks. I suggest you guys get this as a backup. Well, Nillkin was originally China product but it's proved to be good brand until now. With this unbeatable price this one may worth a try.
And btw, Paypal accepted.

that website is super shady. no ssl at all, plain order forms, no email verification, domain registered to "mr protector screen".
no thanks, but good luck.

You do know that the bubble at the bottom of the screen is because the Nexus 5 screen is not 100% flat right? It is not because of the Nillkin screen protector. It happens with all of the tempered glass screen protectors. You just need to really rub it out hard or use a small clamp with soft cloth between the clamp and screen.
Just do a search here and you'll see pretty much everyone having this problem regardless of which screen protector they are using.

Anyone running this?

I do. Just got an e-mail from them say my glass had been shipped. Will do a review whenever I got it.

Usually these cheap screen protectors come without any oleophobic coating on it which makes the screen/glass very tough to glide your finger over.

Just received my glass today from them. A short review was updated.

There are plenty of sub-$5 glass screen protectors on eBay. Don't think you can go wrong with any. Although some have three cutouts instead of two...

Can I order it in India??? Have someone ordered this from India??
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I actually have ordered screen protectors from this website for my cousins' iphone 5s and galaxy s5 and they say that the glass seems to be holding up pretty well. I actually plan on ordering one as well just to replace my nillikin just in case it breaks. How are the edges? Are the rounded just like the nillikin? Just wondering because that's the only way for me to get my case to fit properly.

Agree to this it is not an issue with the protector but rather the nexus screen itself as the tempered glass does not stick at the bottom we need to press to apply it properly whereas in some nexus it just fit smooth

How is X-PROTECTIONS holding up after 5 months?
Are you still using X-PROTECTIONS Google Nexus 5 Screen Protector Premium Tempered Glass? If yes, how is it holding up? Please kindly offer update after five months of usage, thank you!

Tudia slim TPU case review

I pre ordered the Tudia case from Amazon.com on Sunday Aug. 3rd and received it on Wednesday August 6th.
Inside the small bubble envelope, I found the case. It was packaged in plastic like many other Chinese cases. It even included a cardboard dummy phone with Chinese writing.
I tore into the plastic and found that despite the cheap container, the case is fairly nice. It isn't very thick and barely adds any overall thickness to the phone. The back of the case feels a bit like velvety rubber, and on the top and bottom ends the plastic is glossy and smooth.
The holes on the case match up perfectly with all of the holes on my device.
The front lip of the case sticks out far enough to protect the Screen when the phone is face down.
The buttons line up nicely, and are easy to press.
I bought this case because I needed a tough case for work. Unfortunately, this case is no different than any other TPU case that I've owned. It seems that it will provide enough protection for day to day things, but if you are looking for extra protection, look elsewhere.
Overall, I think the price is a bit high for what I got. The case looks nice, but I'm a fan of the sandstone back that comes on the phone and if I'm going to cover it up, I'd prefer to cover it with something with more protection. Also, the case is a bit more slippery than the original back of the phone. The phone offers no more protection than any of the 99 cent cases on ebay.

Thanks to info from Charlieb620 and Knight-Rider, it has been confirmed that this case works well with a tempered glass screen protector. To see photos, go to this post...

Will it play well with a glass screen protector?

It appears to have enough room for a glass screen protector, but I can't give you a definite answer because I haven't tried it. There is a very small gap between the lip and the screen. I suppose it depends on the thickness of your screen protector.
Others will be receiving them today and tomorrow and someone will probably chime in with your answer.

Thanks for the review!
Ordered that same one yesterday and one of those aluminum bumpercases the day I got my invite - of course neither will show till next week I'm guessing
So far the only issue I have found getting a new phone from a small company is lack of accessories, the ones I'm finding aren't exactly what I want but will make due.
Just hope more options show over the next few months!

No problem. I'm hoping someone offers a more rugged case soon. I just recently got my one plus one also and I've found it hard to get nice accessories. I'm sure I'll jump to the next big thing in a few months though. This is my third phone this year, so it's a trend lately.

Hopefully they are somewhat clear. I took all of them except the last few with the One camera. It doesn't seem to be as clear as my note 3 camera, but I'm still trying to learn all the bells and whistles. I like this phone though.

Thanks! Maybe so. I have a few things I'm working on for all devices. I develop apps mostly, but all this "theme" stuff has piqued my interests.
Aside from that, I'd really like to join a ROM Dev group and work with other developers.

Yep, I didn't want to complain about the injection nub on it, because I don't know if it is possible to make them without it, but it is noticeable for sure.

Case recommendations?

Can anybody recommend a case for the S2? Most makers will make the same case for the 8.0 and 9.7" so we can keep them all here.
The official tablet cases don't look too easy to hold.

Have you tried it, I think its good.

I think the official book cover is good. It's nice and slim :laugh:

I went with a Ledo case because I don't like traditional cases adding additional bulk. It's made for an iPad mini but it fits my 710 perfectly!

As much as I like to save, I do notice quality differences between those cheapy ones and the slightly more expensive so called brand name ones. Smudges and fingerprints for example, wipes off easily from my Skinomi on the note 5 whereas the cheap $1.99 ones from ebay not so much.

Official Book Cover for Tab S2
Hey guys, I just bought the Official Book Cover for the Galaxy Tab S2 9.7" version. I'll drop a review video this time next week. Got the black and the gold for my wife. Until then here are some pics. BTW...It's a pretty awesome case!

I got the roocase and I love the vertical stand. I also have the skinomi glass screen protector.
http://www.amazon.com/Features-Landscape-Portrait-Turquoise-Gunmetal/dp/B012HU7C2O
I ordered this one and it looks nice, but the tablet has to be perfectly even or it closes shut. It is also very awkward to open, do not recommend.

Well these came in today. Both were cheap and both fit and function perfectly.

ProCase A fantastic, sturdy, durable folio case for only usd $10. 10 freakin dollars. Seriously is the best $10 I've ever spent.
Paired it with this tempered glass: OMOTON® Tempered-Glass Protector

Anyone who is thinking of the Fosmon TPU and regular clear screen protectors from amazon I just got them. The screen protectors are fine. The case is a very tight fit. Too tight actually that the bottom lip gets pulled back from the surface of the screen.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app

Here are some pictures of the roocase, so many different ways to rest the tablet, vertical or horizontal. The tablet also has the skinomi glass screen protector.

See for me I mainly read laying down in bed on my back. It's the only time I use the tablet and it's just for may e a half hour a day. Like now just before bed.
Anyway, coming from the nexus 7 this tablet I'd very hard to hold like this. Very hard to type on though SwiftKey split keyboard helps. It's also really hard to hold above you in suspended form.
The official case while nice doesn't seem to offer much grip. It can make the tablet wider but that's not going to be easy to hold.
I tend to not like cheap cases because with my experience they smell terrible. I have a case for my nexus 7 from Omatom or whatever and it still stinks a year later.
I think a case with a hand strap is probably best for me. What do you guys think?

Hi, I got an origami type case/cover from eBay. It really is good as it folds to hold the tablet vertical or horizontal on a table.

Tempered Glass screen protector(s)

Hi all,
Starting this thread to see which tempered glass protector is best for the u11 plus.
The phone apparently, from what I’ve read, has a flat front display which should make it easier to find good protection.
I have mine preordered with HTC in the UK and am patiently awaiting delivery for me to be able to test some I bought from Amazon.
Please feel free to add any of your own experiences and opinions.
Thanks all!

Ive pre ordered the phone but already brought a screen protector from ebay, as its a flat front with no finger reader it looks pretty simple. Once I get the phone I will post some pics but only cost £3 so cant moan if it not perfect.

Mine came with a tempered glass. It seems official from HTC. Haven't placed it yet though so I wouldn't know about quality.

The one i got off ebay was crap, it just fills the screen itself rather than all the little bezels.

Got one from Brotec, it's crap, too small and it's peeling at the top, bought another brand from amazon.

Bought the below linked one and it's pretty much perfect for me.

It sucks so much trying to find a decent screen protector that works with a case! I tried the beyeah one and it didn't work with my case, the edges lifted. Tried the more cut out version just to find out that it doesn't even cover the whole screen horizontally wtf? I'm just thinking about giving up

Yes same situation here. Tried both of Beyeah screen protector but they are really bad, one is too big and the other is too small.
I don`t know why is so difficult to cut the screen protector correctly, it should be easy

the best one I found is this one : https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-Pack-H...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649
its pretty much full coverage with slight gaps for a case, its stayed stuck down for nearly a week now! The main downside is there's sometimes a gap in the middle as it doesn't have sticky stuff on the glass itself. this displays as a oily like tiny part but it hardly noticeable, only really see it in certain light conditions. The longer I've had it on the better its got so not really an issue for me.

Ugh, this is a pain to find a decent screen protector for the device. I'm considering Ultimate Shield Tempered Glass Screen Protector, however that ADDS big bezels onto the side bezels of the phone; as seen in videos of Ultimate Shield Screen Protectors. There is a good one by Olixar but that is for Pre-Order only, and waiting for it to come out but have been waiting for a while. Any suggestions anyone?

Bought the below linked one and it's pretty much perfect for me.
#had to remove the link as XDA wouldn't allow me to write it in the reply!#
Full screen coverage and full adhesive too! I'm definitely impressed.

I bought this same one on the day you posted this and I've had no issues with it. Is a good fit and hasn't caused any issues with my case.
Originally bought that terrible beyeah one that didn't even fit the screen and that went back for an immediate refund.

Just ordered this one, lets see how it functions.
As for the list "not to buy" https://www.belsimpel.nl/accessoire-detail/mobilize-safety-glass-screenprotector-htc-u11-plus
Its from a dutch company. The screen protector is WAAY to small for the screen.

Best Screen Protectors

Alright so I have always used bodyguardz screen protectors for all my devices so I figured I'd get one for my pixel 3 xl too. Well it's garbage so I need suggestions and figured others would find this info useful. All that said, let's get some suggestions and reviews going and see who's got the best product out there.

Here is the fit of Bodyguardz protector. Garbage as you can see.

I get the feeling that Whitestone Dome will be our only practical option like with the 2 XL. Whatever I got from Amazon is hot garbage as well.

Honestly, I think I would be okay with that. It's much better than the ones with the adhesive only on the sides. Thank you for the pics.

I agree. Given the current terrible alternatives, I think the bodyguardz protector is the best bet to hold us over until Whitestone releases a protector for the 3 XL.
Does anyone have a link for the bodyguardz protector? I can't find it on Amazon.

I emailed Whitestone about pixel 3xl...They currently don't have any plans to make them for the pixel 3 line...

That's not what Whitestone told me "screen shot here" I was told a November release is planned https://photos.app.goo.gl/Y4GJDwerBuKYVojJA
I currently have the zagg and it's ok
I have a caseology screen protector on pre-order and It should ship the first of November. https://www.caseologycases.com/products/tempered-glass-screen-protector-2

Yeah, with how well the Whitestone protectors did on the 2 XL, I find it very hard to believe they aren't going to do something for the 3 XL, as well. I'm planning on going with a sub-par protector just to hold me over for a month or so, until Whitestone or something similar is released for a more long term solution.

Is the zagg full adhesive? I thought I read somewhere it was. Between that and the $45 process tag and skipped right past considering it.

It's full adhesive and way over priced but I got it with a deep discount. I manage our work Verizon account and picked it up while ordering some other hardware for staff. It does overlap some where the screen curves so there are places it does not stick but covers the viewable screen area. Zagg also includes an alignment tool so that is nice but in short I wouldn’t recommend it at this price point. I’ll try to get some pictures alter today.

Yeah the price is ridiculous. But thanks for the info. I’d be curious to see the pics and see exactly how it fits. I just can’t believe how much these manufacturers are missing the mark... I’ve never bought a screen protector before from either that doesn’t actually fit the intended device

I love the ArmorSuit screen protectors. I've been using them since the 6P, after the previous brand I used disappeared, and haven't looked back since. They're thin, fit well with no size/cut issues, have no orange peel effect, rainbowing, etc.
Caught it this morning, but if you order through Amazon, their case friendly fit is dirt cheap, too. $3. Wish this was active last night when I placed an order through their website. Hopefully I get mine shipped soon because the TGSP I got as a temp doesn't fit with a case, and isn't cut properly to account for the slightly curved edges.

I think it will be whitestone also. Mine on the 2 XL was great. I tried the Verizon one for short term protection. They tried to put it on twice but both resulted in raised edges so they are going to refund it. Whitestone tweed this AM they will have it in Nov. https://twitter.com/whitestonedome/status/1053272064881254400

I bought these until Whitestone comes out. I was actually quite surprised how good they were. I mean it's not perfect but full adhesive. Sticks good on the edges. Coating isn't bad.
I'm a screen protector snob and I'm almost okay with it. $7.00 for 3 of them makes a great temporary until Whitestone comes out.

This is great news!
My phone arrives today. I have an IQ Shield tempered glass protector here waiting. However, the reviews of it have started rolling in and they are HORRIBLE (Amazon link). It's so bad that Amazon stopped selling it.
So last night I went up to a Verizon store and picked up one of their pricey tempered glass protectors. It's only going to cover the usable area of the display and probably won't stick in some places, but it will hold me over until Whitestone releases their solution.

I've always used the Spigen GLASS.t protectors but they're not out yet for the Pixel 3. In the mean time, I'm using this ESR Tempered Glass protector...
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07H8ZNZJ8
Despite the negative reviews, it's working perfectly for me. I'm using the Google Fabric case with it and my only issue there is that the case lip isn't tall enough so when you put the phone down face down, it's the protector that's resting on the surface. We'll see how long the protector holds up.

I got the SuperShieldz screen protector (2-pack). It's utter garbage. Doesn't fit properly and interferes with touch.
I also tried the Tektide protector. It's slightly better touch-wise, but somehow it covers the ambient light sensor so the screen is always dim. Also, the adhesive is pretty ppor.
Both were cheap, but definitely no long-term solution.
