Sgp flex vs other wet install screen protectors

Hi guys what would you recommend?
Ive heard good things about XO where there not much orange peel.
But I want to know if there are other good products.
What the good thing I heard about sgp flex is that there's 2.
Also is there much orange peel on the sgp?
Could you also post pics?

I slapped a SGP flex on my nexus on day 1, and after a bad first install, have been happy with it ever since (comes 2 per purchase).
There is a minor peel effect, it doesn't bug me in the slightest personally. Never visible at all with screen on, and feels perfectly smooth. Clarity is very good as well.
I took a few pics trying to show the peel, with very limited success on camera.

The peel you're talking about, is the at the bottom or the top?
Because when it peels at the top Its gonna annoy me and im gonna start peeling it off.

If you mean by peel the edges peeling, there isn't any at all. The orange peel thing where it looks a bit odd in certain angles of light with screen off..pretty uniformly covers the entire protector. But I can't feel it's presence, or rather, you can't after a few days after application and settling.

Nexus 5 skins with screen protector?

I currently have a Nillkin tempered glass screen protector.
Kind of tired of a case (since I almost drop my phone anyway) and am wondering if I could get a skin for my nexus.
Only problem being the fact that I'm pretty sure I can't apply the skin on top of the skin. But what will become of my nillkin? How will I protect my screen if I have a skin on the phone?

I have the same protector and dbrand allow you to order a skin for the back and sides only. Which is what I'm using at the moment

Hello,
Lot's of people have installed SW onto Temper Protectors ranging from .40mm to the thinnest at .10mm. The key is of course to take your time and apply it as instructed. Slickwraps are very forgiving, however it does help to get it right the first time.
As a second option all Slickwraps come with an XD screen protector that fits in the middle of the wrap, thus adding that screen protection.
Always feel free to let me know if you have any questions!

I want the front white though, never liked the whole white on back but black everywhere else design that Google had, it looks ridiculous. All I want is an all white Nexus 5. (Nexus 4 had tempered glass protectors with the bezel areas white, but it seems that doesn't exist for N5).
Interesting Weston, I might give it a try then. If only that XD protector was tempered glass.

Skinomi Tech Glass first impressions/mini review

Hello everyone. I just got the chance to install the Skinomi Tech Glass tempered glass screen protector that I ordered off of Amazon a couple days ago for $14.95 after I noticed that my Nillkin chipped in a couple of spots on top of the screen protector and proceeded to crack.
The overall packaging of the Skinomi is done rather well and unless heavy items is stacked on the packaging the screen protector should be safe during transport. I chose the Skinomi product over other products because of a lifetime replacement warranty they have on the product so if this screen protector happens to chip or lift up because of a poor manufacturing process I have that extra piece of mind. Some features this product has is as mentioned before a lifetime warranty, a thin profile(seems thinner than Nillkin although the official specs has it the same), rounded edges, oleophobic coating, and a proximity sensor cutout. Installation was a breeze and the fit is much like the Nillkin with a couple of millimeters of space around the edges. So far I am quite satisfied with the product, I will upload pictures of the installation soon.

Does is come with a back protector as well? I noticed my Nillkin has small chips at a few spots as well. One of them looks like it's cracked slightly but it's so thin you don't notice it. I'm thinking it'll blow out eventually though so I'll have to replace sooner or later. Damned if I know how how it would have chipped since I've never dropped it or keep it near anything that could do it.
The cheap back protector that comes with the Nillkin seems to be doing the job, it's scratched to hell! So I'll never not have anything on the back.

No the Skinomi does not come with a back protector, just the front. I still have my Nillkin back cover still on the phone.
I am assuming the keys in my pocket caused the chips on my Nillkin because I never dropped my phone either.

Forgive me if this sounds stupid, is this meant to be use in place of the stock glass that comes on the Z1?

no. it covers the glass, so you technically have 2 layers of glass on the front of your phone.

We Have Gorilla Glass 4!

Check it out we have Gorilla Glass 4, same as Galaxy 6. Apparently, Samsung kept this secret because Corning asked them to due to it not being ready for product announcement. http://www.corninggorillaglass.com/en/products-with-gorilla/samsung/samsung-galaxy-note-4
http://www.corninggorillaglass.com/en/glass-types/gorilla-glass-4
“In laboratory tests, Gorilla Glass 4 survives up to 80% of the time when dropped from 3 feet high and is up to 2 times tougher than competitive glass designs.”

Already scratched mine

Seems to scratch easier than gorilla glass 3....

Lol running with no screen protector is asking for scratches... unless you have microfiber pockets?

I don't put mine in my pocket. Never have.

Nope. But never really got a scratch on any iPhone or Android I've owned before and this one has tons of micro scratches. Doesn't really bother me. Put a glass screen protector on it and don't see them anymore. First things I tell all my friends that want to buy them is get a screen protector and no root yet... lol

Never scratched my note 3, several scratches on the 4. I baby it more than I did the 3.

Great. Still run with a tempered glass screen protector. $6 well spent, no scratches on that one yet, either, and I've had it since I got my phone in October.

where's my sapphire screen.. wish apple had one so Samsung would copy it

Already replaced my entire digitizer after a week of having it ...

Right? I farted and my screen was scratched.

If the screen were made from diamonds I think some of you would still find a way to scratch it.

i thought it only has gorilla 3, anyway, i always apply tempered glass screen protector on every phone i owned (saved me so many times indeed! )

I thought that this was common knowledge? Unless I'm wrong idk where I got it from

Does P9 come with a screen protector?

I got a brand new Huawei P9 (EVA AL10), which already has some sort of film on the screen (also it comes with a case that I put on). Is this a tempered glass or some other type of film, plastic or glass? What sort of protection is it? Or maybe it's just a casual film that needs to be removed after unpackaging? Notice that the film does not cover the screen completely, about a milimeter is not covered in the left and right sides.
It's my first smartphone and I am not familiar with these gadgets at al! Also, I am a clumsy person. I will surely drop the phone (probably regularly once in a while). What sort of accessory can I use to protect against drops? Is a folded-case better than the standard case that comes with the phone for screen protection?
Here is a photo:

I'm quite sure that was just a flim. You should have bought a tempered glass protection.

My P9 came with some kind of protector (under the outer protecting film). I'm still thinking if I should replace it with something that cover the entire screen because it looks a bit ugly.. Here is how it looks:

Better to keep that plastic screen protector. The tempered glass ones do not work well on the p9. On a second note ugh the ads for this website on mobile are horrible.

I replaced it with something from ScreenKnights. Feels OK but seems to be very sensitive to scratches. Look at the marks I did with just my nails..

Maybe because this is made from silicon like 3MK Arc. It's very soft protector film. It's impossible to scratch it
