Hey guys,
Got my hands on the SGP Ultra Oleophobic screenshield for review this time, this is an oil-resistant screen protector. Installation was pretty simple as you can see on the video and I'm pleased with the screenshield. I've used several of these on other devices and they've held up well, so I wanted to pop one on my Galaxy Nexus and show it off.
Full review below:
Mine should be coming in the mail in about 10 minutes.
The fact that it doesn't extend to the edges of the screen is very disappointing. I understand the reasoning, but the edge of the screen protector is very noticeable, and it detracts from the overall look of the phone.
Would a wet application screen protector be able to extend all the way to the edge of the device?
I'd be interested to hear from anyone with the SGP Flex screen protector to see if they're any better.

Yes, a wet application would be able to extend all the way since it can be held down with more ease.
I've got an SGP Flex ready to install but I want to use this oleophobic for a couple more days.
Oh, I'd love to see a review of the flex when you install it. Personally I think I'll get a flex. I got the ultra oleophobic for free from a competition, so no loss.

I just did a quick review of the Flex here Niksko.

You don`t need one, GN screen leave very very very few fingerprints, its so damn good compared to iPhone - no extra crap protectors needed.

I didn't do the review because I needed the shield, I did it because I know there are people that wanted to know how it fit/worked. Anyways, I apply screen shields for protection - better safe than sorry.

I've seen many of those, but I've also seen scratched devices that have Gorilla Glass. I know it's more scratch resistant, but it's not scratch proof. Screenshields don't bother me, so I don't mind the extra protection.
We love rbs_uk!
The Verizon GN screen shields are pretty good though and readily available. They also seem to fit a lot better than the SGP's...

Well I've already scratched my screen with nothing more than straw that fell down in my pockets while throwing bedding down for the cows (grasses actually leach silica out of the soil/lithology to give their cell walls rigidity). This screen is definitely not invulnerable and I think I will pick up the flex instead of this screen protector. I really like the idea of this oleophobic shield, just not the implementation.
This sounds quite interesting. The website mentions no rainbow effect, how true is that and does it reduce the image quality on screen??

I have noticed no rainbowing on the screen as opposed to a cheapo screenshield I had on before.
As for image quality, you won't notice any degradation of sharpness or clarity, the screen does get a little less bright I've noticed but it's nothing huge.
Hi,
I finally got SGP Ultraclear screen protector and installed it successfully last night. It is very clear and screen looks same as before. But I found a few issuea which I didn't expect.
First, I can easily see a lot of finger prints. It was not noticeable when there was no protector but now I can clearly see it.
Second I also can see rainbow effect from side view. It is hard to see from normal angle though.
I may take off this protector later. I am wondering if this is normal.

That is the biggest downside to the Ultra Clear. That's why I get the Ultra Fine nowadays but to each their own.
i go screen-protection-less because its gorilla glass.

gorilla glass is scratch resistant, not scratch proof.
and the galaxy note doesnt have gorilla glass. it has a form of hardened glass, but its not gorilla glass. or so ive read in one of the threads here.
personally, i prefer to have a screen protector for those times you accidentally drop your phone on something or you drop something on your phone. i cant stand scratches on displays since they tend to refract light and annoy the hell out of me.
i think u should go with SGP ultra optics screen protector , i havent tried it personally but people been saying good things about it.
what concerns me about it is that does it affect the display an way or another ? grainy effects ?
for the moment i have a Brando ultra clear screen protector , its very good and clear but its a fingerprint magnet , supposedly with SGP ulta optics u should get ultra clariness and no fingerprints.
would love some feedback from someone who already tested it
cheers

Do u recommend it mate? The ultra optics?
if the display quality remains the same,& no finger prints, then I might consider it offer my Brando ultra clear screen protector
The ultra optics blurs the image a bit

I recommend it! I don't think the term 'blur' applies, clarity is still there and no finger prints. Best of both worlds!

highly recommend! It may be the best anti fingerprint protector, tried the anti fingerprint from SGP on SG2, many "color spots", ultra optics has NO "color spots" produce, of coz it not as clear as the ultra crystal, but really worth it.

it mentions that it does not have gorilla glass.
some places mention it has gorilla glass, some doesnt.
its not listed on the samsung website and its not listed on the corning website so i'd say we cant confirm or deny it. all we do know is that the galaxy nexus isnt using gorilla glass either, its using hardened glass. so the best we can hope for is that the galaxy note is also using hardened glass.

Where did you get this from? How's the fit? Does the screen protector fully cover the screen?

I purchased the same product from Amazon. It is really clear and does fit the whole screen, even has a cut out for the home button. Went on relatively easily without the need for a solution. Cant even tell it on there.
It's not a solution aided style protector, if you add solution you will ruin it.
The trick is being in a clean room with no air flow, then you can have as many goes as you want without getting too much dust, and what you do get you can remove with the dust removing sticker.
I got 3 Screen Guard protectors with a TPU S-Case from eBay. I really had no interest in the protectors, but I like it a lot better than I thought I would. Fingerprints don't wipe off completely but they seem to blend in with the plastic. You almost can't see them anyway when the screen is on. I see no rainbow effect and there is no image distortion unless the screen gets too oily.

Cracks me up every time I read something like this
I used to be very careful up til the day my wife got a screen protector installed by a guy in the Beijing subway (yeah, anything can be done at those subway exits). And believe me, it is windy, and dusty! Those who may know Beijing know how true that is
Result really is perfect....
Sorry don t mean to offend, just funny to see how good care we put into it and seeing how one guy sitting in a dusty, windy area can pull it off just as well
Cheers
No offense taken
But, keep in mind that the dude in the subway is experienced, it takes him 15 seconds prob to clean + fit + charge you.
Where as normal user who have done it maybe 3 - 5 times, will need more time!

Its a great screen protector, plus they give you two. Its thick, clear and so far doesn't seem to cause any display issues. The fingerprints wipe off easy enough.
any chance you can show us the cut out? is it a 4 edge hole at the bottom instead a U shape?
Hello!
I chose nillkin case, but looking to buy nillkin glass, and have a question: they have new H+ Pro and PE+ glass, not only H like it was for Oneplus One.
Did anybody try it? Any recommendation?
btw, H glass was awesome for oneplus one.
Links to actual products:
PE+
H+ PRO
H
Thanks for suggestions.
What are differences between them?
From what I can tell...
PE+: blocks blue light from screen (filter of sorts), is 0.3 mm thick, no claim for light transmittance, nano oleophobic coating.
H+ Pro: 0.2 mm thick, 99.9% light transmittance, nano oleophobic coating.
H: 0.3 mm thick, 99.99% light transmittance, nano oleophobic coating.
Not sure how they have 99.99% light transmittance in a thicker screen protector, but whatev.
Am I right that H+ Pro is the preffered option?

Definitely, for glass the thinner the better because its less noticeable and at 0.2mm it will still offer decent protection.
But personally I'd just get a few of these and call it a day, they all come from the same place any way if you know what I mean.

Ok, great, thanks.
cr0wnest, also thanks for a link, either I understand what you mean, I will go with nilkin, they recommended themself by great cases for me + glass for my previous phone (oneplus one) was pretty good.
Will order 0.21 (H+ Pro), ty.
I'm expecting a pe + buy in aliexpress.
I hope that the home button is not too deep.
I received my Nillkin H+ the other day and I can say there is a huge difference between this and a Bepak glass protector I previously owned.
Nillkin will be a risk-free choice!
Hey how was your experience with nillkin h+ pro? I am confused between nillkin h+pro and original one plus 2 temeperd glass. I want to use it with otterbox back cover
Bought this a few days back and it's really very good , looks beautiful , is resistant to everyday usage and is very thin . the oleo phobic coating really works , the display is always clean unless your hands are very oily .

How is the oleophobic, transparency and fit in that one?
I need a perfect fit for placing a skin on top of it.
Do you recommend this one?

Oleophobic wise, I think the CHYI glass is better. http://www.aliexpress.com/item/2015...tor-protective-film-Original/32438566718.html
But in terms of transparency and fit, they are exactly the same to me. Though I'd get the chyi glass in this case.

Matte glass protectors are same in thickness as the normal ones, but with the anti glare matte quality on the screen. Its exactly the same feeling as the matte plastic film protectors. It is less prone to fingerprints as well. I only had it on for a while before switching back to normal clear tempered glass, I prefer to have clarity.

Sorry to bother so much haha. But I noticed that it is 0,26mm.
Maybe I should look for 0.2 mm or the difference isn't so big?
Maybe nilkin h+ if it really is like both combined can be the best option

Those that say 0.2mm is actually 0.26mm or maybe even 0.3mm. After using so many tempered glasses, all that talk about thinness is BS to me.
@mantiyeah i got the H+pro
I was tipped off by a friend that the Nilikin H+ Pro tempered glass have a better oleophobic coating than normal tempered glasses, and they only cost slightly more. I don't have a H+ Pro to test so I cannot say. Can someone confirm this?
Oh yes the oleo phobic coating on the h+pro is much better than on regular ones .

Hey guys,
has anyone experienced an "oily" Effect on his display with the original film from oneplus on it. I don't mean fingerprints, my phone is completely clean but some area's just don't look like they are. Is this effect from the film or is my display broken?
I could rip the film off but then I have to get an new one :/
Thank you in advance

Just pull the film off and run your screen naked. It feels great.

I had a HTC One m7 before and after using it 3 years it had so many tiny scratches.
I don't want this to happen with my op3, too.. I always wear them in my pocket, never with a key or anything in it, but the film already has some of those tiny scratches.

Hey dude, IV tried 5 different tempered glass protectors and found the nilkin + to be the best. It doesn't cover full screen and the sides don't stick entirely but it's not even a big deal and it's the best you'll get for this phone at the moment

Currently have it naked, keys and knives don't scratch the screen, be careful when you clean it tho, don't use any spray just a micro fiber should be enough. Plastic screen protectors catch a lot of smudges and scratches really easily. Naked or Tempered glass is currently the only option.
hi all,
you all know OP 3T comes with pre-applied screen protector which is not good enough as you know, because it keeps every fingerprint on it and result is dirty screen
So i am looking for a better screen protector at least must perform better about fingerprints and must gives clear view
Any link will be appriciated thanx :good::good:
OEM OnePlus curved screen protector. It's cost 20euro, but really sticks nice to screen and edges. Better buy one good, than few low quality. At least tryed a lot of screen protectors for OP3, this one is best for me.
I purchased a Nillkin Frosted case, which came with a protector. It says anti fingerprint and after applying I can confitm it is much better than the preinstalled one.
