So i just received my Spigen SGP Anti-fingerprint ultra fine screen protector and Skinomi DryTech HTC One X Skin protector today.
For those thinking of getting both or either one of these, here are my first impression...
I'm returning the Skinomi DryTech, doesn't fit right. The cutout for the rear 5-pin and speaker holes doesn't fit properly. It covers one of the gold pins and part of the speaker holes. The camera cutout a bit too big. Maybe i'm just too fussy, but i'm so used to BestSkinsEver type of fit, very minimal gaps and very close precise fit. Guess i'll have to wait for BSE to come out with HOX skins. I've given up on Invisibleshield ever since they added Zagg to their name, quality just wasn't the same.
Next, Spigen SGP Anti-Fingerprint Ultra fine Screen Protector Steinheil enhanced optical hard coated film. It doesn't cover the whole screen just the middle flat part. Although i'm not really happy with the fit, i'm keeping them until i find a better alternative.
I'll try post some pics, but the only camera i have now is the HOX camera..
update (12th May 2012):
Received the replacement full body skin from Skinomi, fits better but still not aligned 100% so they sending me another replacement.
Decide to try the Skinomi's DryTech Screen protector that came with the full body kit.. it fits to the edges of the curved surface, slightly rubbery feel, but not as bad as other skins i've tried. few micro bubbles right after installation, seems like the bubbles slowly disappearing. Will try it out a few weeks and update my views.
I don't think we'll ever find a traditional type of screen protector to cover the screen 100% because of the curvature of the edges. Best coverage would be from a flexible wet application screen protector ala BSE or IS. Downside would be the sticky orange peel texture.
I also received my SGP Ultra Fine Screen Protector today. I'm not opening it or keeping it. It has a matte appearance which isn't for me. I'll have to sell it on eBay or something. How much should I ask for?

I think u can return them for a full refund if u haven't opened it.
I'm thinking of getting Seidio Ultimate Screen Guard - Fingerprint Reducing and HD.

According to the product description:
- Covers the front face of your device, including the screen and the proximity sensor with cut-outs for the home button, speaker and camera
I've listed it on eBay here

I think Skinomi has acknowleged that some of their screen protectors don't fit the back see here:

Apparantly after emailing them, Azzatar has been sent a replacement that should fit better. I'd try that.

^^this
only a wet applicating one is gonna cover close to 100% of the screen
Just to add the SGP doesn't even cover 100% of the flat part. Top to bottom acceptable, though there is a slight gap of about 1mm. Side coverage it only covers the part of the screen where the LCD is, with about 8mm gap, 4mm on each side before the glass starts to curve.
Hard to prove my point when i can't take a pic...

I think it's less noticeable if the protector dimensions are perfectly aligned with the LCD, the edge disappears when the phone is on, but very obvious when the phone is off. My wife has a Optimus 2X, which has a even wider curved bezel, and the screen protector is sized exactly to the display also.
I agree with the others that hard screen protectors won't fit to the edge of glass, unless they come pre-molded to the screen curvature, and this might not be possible with this type of material.
Anyone tried these guys:

Apparently same prob with Zagg InvisibleShield, i don't have a camera other then that on my HOX so i use other people pics... hhehe
Spigen faq page for the screen protectors
Why is the HTC One X Steinheil Series cut smaller than the display size?
Due to the curved screen of the HTC One X, dry application films cannot adhere to curved edges. Over time, the edges will bubble and attract dust and lint which will ultimately make the screen protector unusable. Cutting the screen protector to fit the maximum display area that is not curved ensures that the screen protector will protect your device's display longer without bubbling.

yup, but never expected it to cover such a small surface area. Thought it would at least cover till the edge just before the curve surface starts.

This is exactly what I have found with screen protectors that I have bought from eBay. They are far too narrow and am quite sure that making them wider would not adversely effect it.
It seems that there is a 'single manufacturing standard size' template, which then the majority of companies have adopted to base their One X screen protectors on.
I had SGP screen protector, it only covered the visible part of the screen. I ordered Skinomi DryTech at the same time, but the full body skin did not fit well. I used the SGP got about 2 weeks, then just today decided to installs the Skinomi DryTech screen protector, it fits the screen right to the edges. It feels slightly rubbery, but not as bad some of the previous ones I had, the orange peel is not that obvious. Just fresh instal there are a few micro bubbles, I'll wait few days and see how it .
As for the Skinomi full body skin, I'm still waiting for a 2nd replacement, the first replacement did not fit that good as well.

Guys did any anybody try the original htc screen protector?
http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.php/6535/htc-one-x-screen-protector---2-piece--sp-p730-
Remember reading up on the original screen protector, it does not cover the whole screen and people were saying it was similar quality to the cheapo £3 ones from ebay.
Fellow members please check out my video review of the Yootech tempered glass screen protector for the LG G6, enjoy and subscribe, loads of case and accessories reviews coming soMod Edit
I am happy with the YooTech, and have had it on the phone since day one. Have noticed some hairline scratches that I'm not sure what instance caused them (been babying this phone). Have not had any major impacts or anything so can't comment on durability. I like how it covers a larger portion of the screen (other protectors cut out the top between the camera eye and speaker completely, where this has protection for the gap between the camera and light sensors).
Will order again, But I am going to order a different kind for comparison reasons.

I bought the Gpel tempered glass from Amazon, covers the entire screen with just a bubble cutout for the camera and speaker, instead of the big cutouts most glass covers have. I do wish it had the warranty that Yootech offers, I was going to buy that one before I saw the Gpel.
Hello! Nillkin is already up to date with glass and case, just let know:
Frosted shield case:
http://nillkin.org/smartphones-acce...-9-accessories/nillkin-huawei-honor-9-frosted
H glass (0.33mm, flat edges)
http://nillkin.org/smartphones-acce...-honor-9-accessories/nillkin-huawei-honor-9-h
H+ Pro glass (0.2mm, 2.5D edges)
http://nillkin.org/smartphones-acce...or-9-accessories/nillkin-huawei-honor-9-h-pro
Bought h+ pro. Review as received
Any news on the screen protectors? Is there any edge-to-edge apart those with adhesive only on the frame?
Yeah, this glass is a piece of sh*t. Don't buy it. Got it last week and it's not anywhere close to edge-to-edge, you will have a 2mm gap on each side and it doesn't cover the whole display. Save your money and order a Nillkin which should be exactly the size of the screen. I've ordered it online and the same day returned it in Olomouc.
The one in the first post, the H+ on Ali.
Yes, it is, but it should be worth the waiting. And I've ordered it a week before Honor 9 was available in EU, so it should be here this week.
Man you just got the one I've returned, the man in Olomouc wrote the Honor 9 on the top, lol.
I have ordered

Just got this case http://nillkin.org/smartphones-accessories/huawei-phones-accessories/huawei-honor-9-accessories/nillkin-huawei-honor-9-frosted and this protective film http://nillkin.org/smartphones-accessories/huawei-phones-accessories/huawei-honor-9-accessories/nillkin-huawei-honor-9-1 for free with the case; ordered on Ali.
Super Frosted case (black) - very nice case, really sturdy BUT I have few complaints - it's kinda slippery on the sides but this will go away after some use maybe and the bottom side around jack, charging port and speaker is a bit sharp and if you're holding the phone with the little finger on the bottom it't not really comfortable. Besides that it's really nice case for the price but I expected a bit more. But once again for the price it's more than OK.
Super Clear Protective Film - in terms of size the best screen protector I've had. Obviously it's not edge-to-edge but it does cover the whole display with gaps on the edges BUT the display is fully protected so thumbs up for me. In terms of "anti-fingerprint" it's nowhere close to the display or the back but is much better than some noname protector I've got with TPU case. Overall very nice screen protector for free but I'm still waiting for the Nillkin H+ tempered glass and some noname edge-to-edge tempered glass.
Once I get my hands on the H+ I will post the review.

Do I mean this Protective Film is enough scratch protection?
I have ordered the same, but I think it's not enough.
Should I bought the H+ and change it.
My order isn't delivered yet. I'm from Germany, the order comes from China.

Well scratch protection should be "good enough" but the plastic film will scratch very easily and H+ tempered glass should be much better as tempered glass is always more durable.

You're welcome. The plastic screen will get you through the time until the tempered glass is delivered and it's really nice but I always prefer tempered glass.
I have received my Nilkin super premium Glass Protector. It sucks. It doesn't even cover the whole screen area... I ordered a 1$ one from Aliexpress China which is EXACTLY the same. Same dimensions, same material, same packaging except the nilkin box... Really dissapointing.

Was same? Arc edges... in this situation is flat edges, Nillkin I was think Nillkin is serious company. Some another suggestion for glass? I thinking about some foil

Yeah got the same one with the so called arc edges. As Mentioned when you put it over the screen there is like a gap on each side of the screen left and right which it not covers. Looks and feels like cr*p
Haven't found any good glass one yet, tried cheapo ones from Aliexpress and now the expensive Nilkin one, they are literally all the same.
Could you post an actual photo on the phone please?
Yep, sure. No halo effect on the sides? What about oleophobic coating?
Anybody tried liquid protection?

Guys, don't you think that if "liquid protector" would be real thing all mobile phone manufacturers would already use it or sell it in their shops, branded and for a lot of money?
Hi guys, I'm looking for a good case that won't make me having problem with a tempered glass screen protector.
What do you suggest?
I seen this and this one, but I'm not sure that I won't have problem with a tempered glass.
Thanks
which tempered glass are you using? Spigen claims theirs is case compatible

I have not bought it yet, but I think I will buy the Yootech one, because it doesn't cover the front camera.
The spigen one covers it.
There are many reviews on Youtube. Search "LG G6 glass screen protector".
I used 2 different brands:
AILUN: This was my first one. Covers 99% of the screen, but it was not case friendly. It would lift at the edges when I used a Ringke and Spigen case. Has cut-out for front camera.
SPIGEN: My current one. Leaves a small border along edges because Spigen claims it's "case friendly". They are right, but there is a gap between the glass and case edges. Covers the front camera, which is my preference.

Thanks @HKSpeed, I will stay on Spigen, even if the tempered glass will cover the front camera.

Use the GPEL case. Their Amazon description states "GPEL EverPure Max case is perfectly compatible with GPEL glass screen protector for Samsung LG G6." :laugh:
Yootech + Spigen Ultra Hybrid, they work so well
I've used the Incipio DualPro case and works great with my Bodyguardz tempered glass screen protector

I got mine from ALCLAP, and itS G6 screen protector is case friendly, with a white frame around, and the bride side is clear, doesn't reduce my ability to use the phone screen at all. Maybe you can have a try. [/url]
I have used the clear case from Spigen and it works great with my tempered glass screen protector.
I use the nearpow (2pack) tempered glass and the case from caseology serie parallax from amazon. I'm really satisfied.
I applicate the tempered glass with the case aleady fit on the phone, cause there is nearby no extraspace on the borders.

Someone says if you apply the screen protector with the case on, it would avoid a lot of problems about case compatible. I have never tried that, but this might help.
I bought an Edge to Edge tempered glass from good mobile accessory shop and got it fitted in my Mi10 by a professional technician there itself.After a week or so there developed one or two air bubbles in the screen and they began to grow big covering half of my screen.So I approached the shop again and they repalaced the glass with a new one.After about 2 weeks there began to develop air bubbles again and they growing in size gradually.My had not dropped anywhere from me or others.So what is the reason for this?If I replace the tempered glass with a Screen Protector film,can the developing of air bubbles be completely prevented?Aso will this actually protect the phone screen glass from breaking in the event of a fall?Can anyone suggest a good quality Tempered glass and good quality Scree Protector Film?

It will offer some protection but if the phone lands a certain way the screen is going to crack regardless of what you've got on.
I just used a basic film one but the fingerprint is a bit crap. Glass ones never fitted right.
Hey you can try using Siege Glastimate+ for Galaxy S20+. It's a UV glue tempered glass. Price is quite high but it is really case friendly tbh bc im using the glass with my Ringke Fusion-X casing with no problem. And also the tempered glass has no touch issues whatsoever bc it is a UV glue not like normal tempered glass with edge only glue. And for the back panel I'm using a cheap carbon fibre sticker to avoid scratches haha
I bought the one from *******.. to much of my surprise it actually is quite good.
Installation was easy with an included guide/holder. The film has 2 parts that lets you apply the top half first then the bottom.
It's super thin, like what you'd see from the factory. The TPU film is also really smooth.
