I just got the leather g4, kinda don't want to hide the leather.
Do they have something to cover just the front besides the bumper?
That doesn't make sense at all. Buy a screen protector then.

i'm guessing you don't understand the question.
I just want to cover the front since the back is already covered by the leather backed.
Still don't get it, sorry. The front of the phone is the screen itself.

yes, i just want to protect that. Do they make such a thing just to cover up the front?
The top and bottom parts, for example? Don't think so.
Better find a good glass screen protector.
that's what i was afraid of, thanks.

I don't think theres anything you can do. *Any* kind of protector will greatly affect image quality. It's just the way things are. Best bet is to find a case with some kind of removable cover?
Or is it possible to buy only the back cover of the phone?
I meant the battery door ...
I still remember the olden days, I was trying to replace the back cover of my HTC Kaiser and it was difficult to find.

not sure how an extra battery door will help protect your camera lens?
But yea, I'm sure you'll be able to find replacement back covers in due time.

Search eBay now, they're available. I bought one.
Martin Fields protectors almost always include a camera lens protector. I don't think their protector pack is out yet for the gn though.
yea..back covers all over ebay.
Is there any chance the camera lens cover is glass? On my HTC Desire it was hardened plastic (part of battery case) and I went through 3 back covers over 2 years due to nasty scratches on the lens cover. I think the cover on the nexus looks glass though? I think covering it with anything might cloud images, but keeping it in a pouch would be good idea. Keep it from rubbing against grit in pocket or surfaces.
[Okay! I just got my cover (1 day before it was supposed to arrive LOL just like it happened with my V20). Anyway. This is my review:
First of all, here is the link to purchase the cover (maybe cheaper in other websites, maybe not):
http://www.ebay.com/itm/26267917850...49&var=561595568110&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
Now, lets proceed by telling you what was included:
1x Heavy duty cover (dual layers, 3 pcs); 1x Premium Tempered Glass; 1x Dust absorbant cloth; 1x Cleaning wipe
Finally, Lets get to the review! The good and the bad:
The good: I like the cover. So far i dropped the phone from 3 feets and nothing happened to it. The cover meets Military Grade 810.1-G Compliancy. The first layer feels like a fat layer of clear TPU but it doesnt feel bad at all. The outer layers are made of Polycarbonate to absorb the falls. The TPU layer is enough to absorb the impact but the 2 layers of polycarbonate have 2 purposes to protect, but also to make the phone adjust firmly in the cover. The audio jack and the type c usb port both have dustproof covers so that it doesnt penetrate any dust particles. easily to open and close. With this cover you will be able to use every functionality. Including IR Blaster, and every mic has its big enough hole to let the voice sound as clear as possible. cover doesnt feel bulky, to put it inside your pocket with or without cover, you wouldnt notice the difference (see the picture of the rule and measure your phone with one). it is very light too. Now, the screen protector, im sure it was premium, but i messed up putting it (STUPID DUST PARTICLES FLOATING EVERYWHERE), so now i have to buy a new screen protector lol.
The bad: 1) Your fingerprints will stay on the TPU layer (light fingerprints) but they still there. So,,, if you are into security and no trusting anyone and thinking about someone will do conspiracy against you and will use your fingerprint to unlock the phone, well,,,, it is not for you, unless you paint it with an spray ; 2) possibly another bad side: if you are no accustomed to the volume buttons on the side of the device and have to constantly looking for where exactly to press, then this is not a cover for you, since the buttons totally disappear with it. On the other hand, they are easily to press if you are accustomed to the volume buttons on the side; 3) The cover might slip if the material of the surface were you put it is made of Anodized aluminum or any other material that has been processed or polished.
Funny Fact: Seems that they created the cover missing some information about the phone's physic, since they added a button in the right low side of the cover which has no purpose there LOL!
I havent had any scratch so far (from the fall) yet.
If there is any question, please let me know, and i will try to answer. Or any other comments.
Cheers!
@aknotts415 >> here is what i think about the cover. Pictures are on the first post too
haha..thanks...i was just about to post here and ask if anyone has any thoughts on this case...i'm stuck between this zizo and the poetic...
i dont want to take any chances...I had a Note 7..then replaced it with a recalled version...had a nice spigen tough armor case on it but no screen protector...I accidentally dropped it at work and managed to somehow scratch the screen lightly..i guess it doesnt matter since i'll be replacing it with my LG V20 arriving tomorrow...:good:
**oh, could you post some more pics with the case on...maybe during the daytime with more lighting...so how was the tempered glass protector??? was it actually pretty thick, and any advice on getting it on perfectly???

When i come from college today at 11 am i will posting more pictures from every angle.. Now, about the tempered glass, it is very thick. if it werent for the dust particles in my living room, i would have put it perfectly, Something that i like is that when you put the screen protector, and the put the cover, there is no way any dust will go inside, at least from the front part, since the polycarbonate layer presses the tempered glass, hard enough to no let any dust go inside. So, neither from the front nor the audiojack nor the type c port, you will get dust. I just bought 2 tempere glasses on ebay ahhahahah.
Few advices to put it perfectly: go to a place inside your house where there is the least amount of dust (no air conditioner, no windows, and no fans rotating), clean your hands with alcohol, and let it dry. then start from the hardest part, The top, as soon as you align the top and the edges on the top, it wil become easier. Now, i noticed that many of the screen protectors, such as this one:
https://www.amazon.com/Mr-Shield-Te...ywords=lg+v20+tempered+glass+screen+protector
Are not been built correctly. As you can see on the reviews, you will see people talking about the tempered glass not properly adjusting to the edges, And to be honest, i dont know if this tempered glass i used but put wrong had the same issue since i see the edges not properly adjusted . maybe because i removed it 2 times and put it back on, or maybe is the built quality. Anyway, im going to wait for the other tempered glasses. and see if those have the same issue.
i bought this one:

It doesnt feel bad, it could be better though if it were aluminum probably. But i figure that the polycarbonate absorbs impact better than metal. Also, please revisit the the first post of the thread, i made some changes into my review you might want to read.

Nope. It doesnt. it leaves even an extra small space after the 2nd screen just to make sure that every touch does work. Also it leaves a small space after every edge for the same reasons. :good:

Oh! you are right hahahah. I didn't notice that until i went to the same link on ebay now. The black one shows the 2nd screen, but the others show it as covered . hahaha Probably for the same reason they added something extra to the case that it didnt need to be there as you might have noticed in the picture #8 of the first post i uploaded. But just to play safe, if you will bu y the cover, ask them first.
So my charging flap is already not staying put. I only charged it once and the flap is already loose .
Sent from my LG-H918 using XDA-Developers mobile app
i went ahead and ordered one as well...also ordered this for when im in the house and dont need the full protection...
I ordered the green one. Too cheap to pay for expedited shipping so not sure how quickly it will be here.
My v20 will be here tomorrow and my cheap case from Amazon prime will also be here tomorrow!

Yeah at first i thought the same about mine. But then after a minute or 2 it came back to normal and iI t stayed put covering pretty well. Did you try after a short period of time?
Well , for the time being, i did a little adjustment to mine lol and it worked. I put a very very very thin layer of superglue on the edge of the port-cover and waited for it to dry, now the superglue is part of the case, but now the dustcover protector stays there the second i want it to stay there. Although it is not necessary because as i said before, it will come back to normal after about 1 minute or 2 minutes.
On the other hand, I just dont want to return the cover and have my phone naked for another week LOL . And also, i kind of like how thin it is yet very protective. and the seller gave me $5 dollars back because seems like the "premium screen protector" is one of those that wont stick to the edges correctly, althoguht it might have been my fault since i removed it 3 times and put it back on.

Hey i have a question. when you open the cover to plug the usb charger, does it remains open? or is it like mine that after a few minutes it does closes okay?
I was wondering if there is any plastic film to put on the back of the phone? Also maybe on the sides.
I have a case on the phone (ringke) and dust and lint gets in behind the phone.
Your best bet would be a phone skin. As far as the sides they come pretty well protected with sections of film front the factory I never take those off. Also consider nightly taking 2 mins before putting phone on charger and taking case off wipe phone down and case before reinstalling the case. If not a phone skin is gonna be your best bet. They make them clear
I was also wondering the same thing. I once used a tempered glass back for my Samsung s6 edge once but that interfere with the case. I guess plastic would be a lot thinner. I'm also interested in a clear plastic for the camera lens.

Really thinking that anything over the camera lens is going to cause issues. Truly. But you could get one of the universal plastic covers and cut it to fit

Was thinking more like the dbrand warps, I've seen they have a piece that covers the camera lens with hole cutout for the camera and flash. Now if I can find something less fancy and cheaper than dbrand it'll do me.

I'm from Australia as well. Just used the filter in Amazon to show only seller who's willing to ship to OZ
I've been lookin for wraps and skins, but comes to $28 aud here.
All I'm really after is a clear screen-protector type for the back of the phone for $1 off ebay.... hmm
Hi guys. Did you find any back covers (not cases) that are transparent? I checked skinomi but they have only screen protectors.
https://www.gadgetshieldz.com/htc-u11-plus-screen-protectors-covers-cases.html
This is the only one I have seen. If you get it let me know how it turns out.
Just got mine and installed it. Works ok so far, no issues. has separate side protection stickers as well which makes the phone a bit grippier.
Also another one available is the link below, but I found it didn't cover to the very edges of the glass like the Gadgetshieldz one did.

How does this one work? Its like a screen protector, however for the backside of your phone?? How does this make your phone more "grippier" though?

It makes it grippier as it's like a plastic screen protector for the back, but made of more rubbery transparent plastic, which is much less slippery than glass.
I just picked this thing up last night and sure enough the FRONT screen got microscratched.. It's annoying me like crazy. I know its juts the plastic protector on there.
Can I take it off and replace it with an OEM film? Will this void my warranty?
I'm ultra pissed.
solutions?
Haha. I would just keep it on a little longer, but no, you can take it off and replace it without worrying about your warranty.
If you got care+ you can get it replaced at Samsung for free.

Best solution , IMO
Amazon.com
AND ,
way better with protection, scratches
less fingeprints , grease
much easier to clean with microfiber
Brand new Fold 3?
I'm guessing that you do not know that there is a plastic screen protector on it that comes right off off?

Thanks, I have the spigen armor pro case think it will work with it? IT seems this case is RIGHT at the edge of the screen. I wouldn't mind the plastic film again, is there an OEM one I can get for it?

Can't tell about that case , but I think is a standard , because it's the same size as the OEM plastic film
Something important I forgot is the "glass feel" you get when you touch the screen versus that plastic film , makes a huge difference for me.
The OEM protector is trash. Mine had scuffs and scratches within 24 hours just being in my pocket. I do not recommend the oem screen cover again as it will just scratch easily again.
