[Q] Screen protector least fingerprint magnet? - Nexus 5 Accessories

The default screen protector that came with my spigen case is a fingerprint magnet. Do you guys have suggestions as to which ones are NOT for fingerprint magnets?

All plastic ones will be showing fingerprints with light reflections. Some of the glass screen protectors have an oleophobic coating which can reduce fingerprints greatly for a period of time before the coating wears off, similar to the stock glass.

Pro-tip, rain-x works wonders on making fingerprints less noticable. I used to do this on my Dell Streak, it makes the glass feel silkier, but wears off after a week or two... I don't see why you couldn't do this with a plastic screen protector, I'll give it a go next time I see a bottle of Rain-X.

I don't have one for the n5, but matte ones generally don't attract fingerprints as much.

Yep. Mattes one rarely attract fingerprints, but it will make the screen look a little weird.

Glass-M Glass Screen Protector

hello guys
Just wanna let you know that the Glass-M Premium Tempered Glass Screen Protector, is now avilibale fot our Nexus 5. Iv'e used this for my xpiera Z and thought its was as good as the spigen, maybe even better because off the smooth edges.
i've ordred one, price is 17,99 $ and 5 $ for shipping. Will tell more about it when i'll get one.
http://theglass-m.com/collections/featured/products/glass-m-premium-tempered-glass-screen-protector-for-google-nexus-5
Those protectors are very good. A friend of mine using that for the iphone 5 for over two months.
But the big disadvantage: you cannot use a case with the glassprotector because the glass protector is too thick.
Hi, I just installed mine. I used the hinged method to install this screen protector on to my Nexus 5.
Here's a video of the hinged method http://youtu.be/dt9_fZDT-As
It works as advertised. Screen sensitivity is maintained thanks to its super thin 0.15mm premium tempered glass.
Interested in your feedback 3 months later OP
Has anyone got any more feedback on this tempered glass? Fit, strength, chip resistance, oleophobic coating etc?
Ordered One actually Ultra slim..didn't reached yet..!

Sorry for the late response as I have been following this thread and my 0.15mm slim Glass-M screen protector for my Nexus 5 shipped earlier today and it fits nicely. It is my first time putting on a glass screen protector, or a screen protector for that matter on. I used the hinge method and it fits almost perfect except that the earpiece cutout isn't that aligned but it's fine, what's done is done lol. I love the feel of it, pretty much feels like the OEM glass. I am using it together with a Ballistic Shell Gel case (the less beefy version of the SG MAXX without the belt holster) and it fits fine, no interference though it feels a bit snug when putting the silicone and then polycarbonate backing on with the screen protector but nothing serious at all. I tested out scratching my keys on it with medium pressure and there were no scratches. I don't think I'd do anything harsher than that though LOL :laugh:

Thanks for your feedback, one question I have is how does the oleophobic coating perform? Coming from Nexus 4 to nexus 5 I was immediately impressed with the coating on the Nexus 5 screen. If I am going to use a glass screen protector I would like it to also have good oleophobic properties.

Hi again! Yes, about the oleophobic coating, I feel it is decent, not amazing though. It will occasionally pick up some fingerprints but light presses on the screen (after washing your hands) won't leave any prints.

I received my Glass-M today...
It is my first tempered glass. 19.99$ US for the new 0.15mm
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/0-15...en-Protector-For-Google-Nexus/1500677869.html
I must say that I'm very impressed, the installation was easy, I had everything in the box (tempered glass, cleaning cloth, alcohol cloth,dust cleaning film, etc)
I can't compare to any other since it's my first one but it's very nice
it feels very smooth (glass) , no bubble or spider webs (yet),
my old screen protector was VERY fingerprint magnet but not this glass !!
it's cool !
here are some photos
Thanks, very helpful. I went ahead and ordered one
So can you confirm this thing have a GOOD oleophobic coating?
I tried so many different screen protector, glass or not, and so far nothing can match the coating that came from the phone manufacturer - it last much longer.
Spigen has a good coating. Closest I've used to not feeling a protector on at all.. Very good.
Sent from my Nexus 5
I'm using Glass-M, the thick one, since december or so.
It's really good, but it has some problems: I can't use some cases like Diztronic's (I don't know if I could with 0.15mm version), and the oleophobic coating is vanishing with time. Today I can notice more fingerprints than the first day.
I had just installed the 0.15 mm, one word, brilliant, very easy to install it not a single bubble, very thin is very hard to notice that is there the touch is very smooth and most important isn't a finger magnet, highly recommended. I am using it with the spigen ultra crystall shell case.:good:

Glass screen protectors do tend to cost a lot more than regular screen protectors. I have never used a Cruzerlite screen protector but their cases do have good reviews, Hopefully this screen protector is good as well.

hmm that's cheaper than the spigen and some others. i may order that and give the rhino sheild that's yet to arrive to my brother, being he's destroyed several phone screens.
#1 reason I don't use glass protectors is because they're hard and trapped dust can't be removed easily. This might actually make me switch to glass in the future. Too bad I already purchased a 6-pack of matte SP's for my N5 which will last me till I dispose of the phone.

I get it but glass make the phone feel so nice
Im hoping someone does a video comparison of the tru glass versus the spigen nano slim. The spigen is 0.23 mm and the truglass is 0.25mm. However I do not believe the spigen protector is flexible like the truglass. I'm sure that helps make it shatterproof if it truly is glass. Because it is soo flexible it makes me think its plastic and not glass. They do have flexible glass screens on phones nowadays but it is technology that is just hitting the market so I would suspect if this were truly glass and this flexible it would cost more than the spigen but it is cheaper !!
The rounded spigen nano is still not out yet so there is still some time for people to get this one and test it out.....cant wait to see the results. One more major thing I'm hoping to get with either one of these glass screen protectors is true smudge proof/oil resistance. That is the most important feature to me...so which ever one is more oleophobic is the one I want.

By that logic, the gorilla glass screens used on all phones and tablets costs $20+ to make? That's more than the cost of the processors in our devices.

oh my bad I haven't used a screen protector in about 5 years. But 2 weeks into having my HTC One I got 2 huge scratches in the center of the screen. I hate screen protectors, because I love the natural feel of my screen. but when I get my Nexus 5 I'm definitely getting a glass screen protector. I presume these screen protectors work well with their cases.

The Mime glass protector is pretty smudge/fingerprint proof, for me. I just get dust on it, which wipes away with my hand.

It moved a little bit and had some flex to it. It definitely is a rigid piece of glass though. I think it flexes more because of the thinness of the glass piece.

OK guys so I placed this Tru Glass protector and it is awesome, I had a SPIGEN Glass TR on my phone before I put this one (glass tr is the one that has the issues), its super slim just like the Glass Nano TR, it feels great to the touch feels just like the naked screen.
It was easy to put on no bubbles or anything like that.
So I really recommend this protector its awesome, its cheaper than the SPIGEN protectors and in my own opinion its as high quality as the SPIGEN brand.

Are you using a screen protector?

Curious to see how many G3 owners are using a screen protector or planning to use a screen protector.
I stopped using one on my Nexus 4 and was very happy with it. Over 1 year of use without a screen protector and the screen was flawless. However, I've had my Nexus 5 for about 6 months now without a screen protector and my screen now has 2 deep scratches (you can feel them with your finger and see them in just about any lighting).
Because of my experience with the Nexus 5 screen I'm back to considering going the screen protector route again. However, I'm curious to see what others are thinking regarding the issue.
I should also mention that it is important to me that a screen protector works with a case. I already ordered a TPU case which I plan to use with the phone. Do those glass screen protectors typically work with TPU cases?
Yes and the Spigen nano tempered glass is by far my favorite one.

first off glass screen protectors do work with tpu cases. the only thing that can scratch your screen is sand metal won't touch it (see hardness rating) if you really dislike screen protectors try liquid solutions(ex. Crystalusion) or you could try tempered glass it feels as glass and it won't give bubbles if you hate that hope this post was helpful I added some links with product info

No problem, I have always enjoyed tempered glass. I have yet to have a case where it didn't fit. Since the Spigen nano glass is very thin and it has rounded bezels you won't notice it at all. It also fits almost with maybe < .5mm gap on the left and right side. I had an op with my F400 showing the fit with some cases.

The poll should probably have 2 no's - one that says "but using a case" and one that says "and no case".
I personally dislike the look and extra bulk of cases as well as screen protectors.
No worries about hijacking guys. I'm trying to learn what I can about protective options for this phone anyway.
I gave up on screen protectors a while back but I do not want the G3's screen to end up with the same scratches my Nexus 5 did. I've never tried using a tempered glass screen protector but I've heard great things about them.
I think I'll follow your recommendation and order the Spigen Nano protector tomorrow. I love the idea of having a screen protector that is bubble free. The bubbles and raised edges are why I gave up on screen protectors previously. I imagine the tempered glass one will solve those issues.
EDIT: Is this the Spigen protector you were talking about? $30 seems steep. How long does it last?

Just ordered that Spigen Glass.tR Nano tempered glass protector. It's pricy and you only get one so I really hope I don't screw up the installation.
I may change my mind and get a glass protector. They're a lot thinner than they were last time I checked (years ago). The Joto one looks good spec wise. It's the thinnest I've seen at .2mm, assuming they didn't just round it down.

Edit: Actually the i-Blason is just as thin and half the price. It's only 8H compared to 9H with the Joto. Not sure if that difference really will matter. It also doesn't state that it's rounded.

Bumping this now that more people are receiving their phones. I got the Spigen glass protector installed. I like it a lot but I already know that if something happens to it such as the corners lifting or something, I know I'll feel the bare screen again and likely won't go with another screen protector.
I've never used a screen protector on any of my devices but I feel like I need to for this one. I ordered a flexible glass protector by iloome and some other cheap one to practice with.

Yes i do use screen protectors.
I ordered 10 screen protectors from eBay for €6,- (around $8,-)
Screen protectors will not protect your screen from cracks if you drop your phone on your screen.
But they prevent scratches like a boss.
You might find ones that protect your screen from cracks, but they will cost you a lot.
And they will add height and they might disturb the responsiveness from of your touchscreen.
The cheap ones will do just fine, they might take scratches more easily than the ones that cost $10.
But if you got a scratch on your screen protector you want to change it anyway (i am the type of person that gets irritated and annoyed by scratches on my beautiful screen).
So why spend a lot of money on something that you will change every few months anyway? You should not
Never used a screen protector, never had a screen get scratched. No plans to start.
I'll be using one from now. Phone took a fall from a foot off the ground. Landed screen down and shattered :crying: The screen on the G3 seems incredibly fragile. Ordered the Spigen GLAS.tR today hoping it may help prevent this on my replacement.

Screen protector likely wouldn't have helped.

Matte anti-glare tempered glass screen protector

Okay so here's the deal, I was using the orzly tempered glass screen protector and I missed the feel of the matte screen protectors. I didn't want to just remove the orzly one because I spent $10 on it and its still in prefect condition. So I had an idea, LAYERED SCREEN PROTECTORS! I got 6 matte screen protectors on eBay for $3 so I didn't really care if I messed up.
now before anyone complains that its a stupid idea, I know that it could affect the touch responsiveness and so far, it didn't.
Worst case:
-remove both screen protectors
Second worst case:
-remove the matte screen protector from the tempered one.
Best case:
-everything works properly.
CAUTION:
-The only hard part about this is you have to layer them PERFECTLY or you'll have a an uneven finish.
-There will be a border where the matte screen protector hangs off the tempered one since its slightly bigger. Thus might cause the screen protector to lift off if you have a tight fit case.
I'll keep this thread updated on his it handles in the upcoming weeks.

Honestly it worked well but after a period of about a month, the edges of the matte one wouldn't stick anymore since its bigger than the Ozrly protector. I have heard that some tempered ones cover edge to edge but then I assume a tight tpu cases wouldn't fit correctly.
Anyway, I ended up taking it off and am currently using only the tempered glass. The main reason is when I took of the matte, I didn't realize how beautiful the screen was and how much crappier the matte made it look. So I decided to just get used to the tempered glass one which took a little time because my fingers usually drag on the screen. But I honestly did get used to it.

I was a big fan of the matte protectors but since putting the nillkin tempered on, I don't miss the feel of the matte protector.
I also now see how much nicer the screen looks. Matte was great for minimizing reflections but it definitely reduced the image.
Any pictures with both protectors on?

It looked exactly the same as on the regular screen except that the top right and tip left corners hang off the ozrly and over time it won't stick anymore because dust eventually gets underneath it.

Suitable Screen Protectors For Your New Huawei Mate 20 X ?

Which screen protector are you using (if any) ?
I've just come across this one:

Case friendly too apparently
What do you guys think !
Still rocking the original screen protector from the factory. In search of the perfect glass protector though.
I'm using Nilkin HD+. Good finger print smudge protection. Case friendly. Only negative is is cut short. About 1 mm gap around. Slight rainbow effect on sides. Good for $10.

I'm not a fan of glass ones so I ordered oem quality ones here. If you like the original protector you'll like these.

The problem is, the film ones don't protect against much. It will protect against light scratches and that's pretty much it.
The glass screen protects against light and heavy scratches and it also protects against screen breaks.

A Flip case protects the rest.
If there was a matte glass protector, that would be awesome.

I've never scratched a screen that had a pet film protector on it. The only thing I care about are the scratches. Most of the time when you drop your phone it lands on one of the corners so it doesn't matter if you have a glass protector on or not. I hate the extra thickness of the glass ones and I hate that they crack way too easily. I'd rather spend $1.50 on protectors than $5 or $10 for each one and then have them crack a week or two later.

wow, I wish i would've found this before I ordered mine. Unfortunately, it's sold out.... :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
I bought the Nillkin Amazing XD CP+ Max tempered glass screen protector for Huawei Mate 20 X
and the fitment was quite bad. Link to my post about my thoughts on it
Is there anywhere else I can buy this screen protector? this seems like the best full coverage screen protector yet.

This seems to be the same... you have to buy it and see if it's full coverage or not... ask the seller first. Cheers
