So I was wondering if anyone had input on a good screen protector. I keep trying the cheaper ones an I'm always left with bubbles that I can't get out. Or its just not cut right.
Is it worth it to pay for the high end ones? Are they better with bubbles?? Amazon reviews I can't always trust, but you guys I do
Suggestions??
I'll take AOKP anything

I second this. They feel closest to glass to me.
OK cool. What about application? How hard are they to install? I used to do vinyl on windows and walls, that's no where near as impossible to apply smoothly

Go with Zagg Invisible Shield. BUT take it to an official Zagg/invisible shield employee..you can usually find booths in the mall. i say this because they take the time to apply it the correect way. unlike bestbuy or sprint who would just wipe the screen and slap the thing on there...or look up a youtube video on how to install invisible shield correctly...
zagg screen protectors are great.
I really like the ones that come with otterbox's any cheap ones its just better to not have one at all
Ditto

I second that recommendation. I have had Zagg Invisishields on my last 4 phones and swear by them. They have a great lifetime warranty too.

Thanks! I just replaced a broken screen and wanted to get some good protection. I've bought off amazon before and their stuff just is cheap and doesn't feel right. Going to see if there is a Zagg booth in the mall by me!
hi
I got these matte finished screen protectors for like $5 on amazon there pretty good. if your still looking i can send you the link to it.
Honestly, I had a protector on mine for 6-8 months, I can't remember exactly. Took it off and never looked back.
I love the feel of the glass, and it's always in it's Sena leather slipcase, or charging. I don't think I would consider putting a protector back on at all, and when I upgrade this fall (Note 3???) I doubt I'll use one on it either.
does any good screen protectors for the glide? theirs a lot of sticker ones but i looking for a one that help reduce scratches as well.
I heard LiquidArmor is pretty good. The company I work for sells it. However, I am not one who is pro screen protector. Use the gorilla glass your momma gave you

i was thinking about a protector cos i'm living outside of the NA region and afraid that it will be hard to replace/fix the screen itself.
I use this, Xtreme_guard ones.
I'm very satisfied and they're very cheap.

Gorilla Glass isn't exactly scratch-proof... While it's a fair bit better than typical glass, I live in the desert, and sand sure does a number on it.
I already bought a few screen protectors, but failed everytime to get it on in a decent way.
This "lip" at the sides of the screen keep messing it up >:
Have you guys some tips to get it on easier?

Zagg Invisible Shield is a very good protection against scratches and dirt. One was gifted with my phone at first, and I ruined it in my pocket with my keys. I really think it saved my phone this day. So I bought this again but it was hard to found. Happily, it is easy to set with the provided fluid. ^^;
Now I have the full zagg protection (screen and back) with a Speck case.
didnt understand how it can help protect the back panel,
i bought the extrme_guard one, hope it will be good. didnt received it yet.
quick re-cap on extreme guard screen protector, it does it jobs pretty well, but the screen protector itself get scratch rely easy. but as i said the scratch don't pass to the screen it self, so it 75 percent good. its pretty cheap via eBay. cost like 5 bucks with delivery and got a replacement straight after the first one scratched while appalling (maybe its my fault for not doing it right).
so take it with a grain of salt.
maybe next one i will buy will be zaggs one.
ok, the extreme guard is not good, it peels off after few days. i will go with the zagg one hope it will be better.
Just a heads up, xtremeguard has 70% off the entire site and shipping is free. Use the coupon code 70OFF
You can get a screen protector for the Glide for $1.50. Considering most screen protectors are this cheap anyway, might as well invest in a quality one.
It's a pretty good deal for those of you that are into wet applications
http://www.xtremeguard.com/Samsung-...de_screen_protector.htm?CartID=1#.UPSet2cwhPc
The full body protection is a much better deal, but sadly there isn't one for the Glide
I'm with xtremeguard ones. They last for about 6-7 months but i think they're totally worth the price and the quality is great. I've bought three: the first one has gone a few months ago due to accidental rubbing that slowly pulled up the corners and the whole protector; the second is the one i have on. It's great. The third is in my drawer just in case of need.
It would be a very good choice (especially consdering the price).
I bought three cheap screen protectors for US$3 on Amazon and overall I'm happy with them. I don't have experience with the more expensive ones, though.
Just happen to search for Xtreme Guard screen protectors and found a 90% off discount code for the OnePlus One screen protectors. They have two options to choose from, the regular screen protector $6.99 each or HD $6.99, I used discount code Mega90off2 and only works if you buy 2 or more. Not sure how long it's valid for but I purchased 6 HD ones and paid only $4.19 free shipping. I've used Xtreme Guard in the past on other devices and it's pretty much a perfect fit. Happy shopping and hit the like button if this helped you!!!!!!!
thanks, I just ordered 3 of each kind for the $4.19. I've used xtreme on my gn2 and n5... they are ok..great for the money.

You're welcome anytime. Ya I used them for my Note 2, Note 3, Nexus 5. Hit the thanks button if this helped you =)
I purchased one for $1.05 earlier this month. IMHO, THEY SUCK! The cutout area for the speaker and camera does NOT stick. Lucky for me, I ordered a set of Illuminshield and they're great! It does a pretty good job on being resistant to finger prints. It still leaves some behind but overall I'm happy with this choice. I'm so glad I only paid $1.05 during July 4th special, other wise I'd ask for my money back from Extreme Guard.
Too bad about the shipping price in Europe. It does cost around $6 to get two screen protectors in Eastern Europe. I'd love one of those but I think I'll have to stick to the chinese screen protectors...at least for now. If someone can ship one or two of those screen protectors for a lower price, I'd love to have a private conversation.
Xtreme Guards has the worst screen protectors of any company. THE WORST....there's a reason they're always 90% off. Google it.
Ive gotten much much much better protectors from ebay for cheap.
Bought 6 pack for 2.99 shipped. Better fitting than xtreme guards (I think they die cut the protectors with a die that hasn't been sharpened in 20 years)

I have no need "Google it" as you said, like I said never had a problem with Xtreme and I will continue to use them.
Been using XtremeGuard screen protectors on all my devices. They work absolutely fantastic. Never any issues with installation. If I had any issues with packaging during transport... They rushed out new ones.
In for 2. Thanks!
I purchased these ones for my new OnePlus One dont know if their any good but will post if they are.

So i just recieved mine in the mail... i'm just kind of laughing at how terrible the quality of these protectors are. They came cut in a terrible fashion and pre-scratched.
so these are pretty much useless. I know it was only a buck forty, but holy hell this is terrible. lol

i dont think the scratches will be on the actual guard, peal off the 1 and 2 layers and see.
yeah i've been told this over at the 1+ forums as well. But still doesn't help the shoddy cut. already held it up to my phone and there's a nice huge indent up at the top left corner. Looks like it'll be fine for now, but i'm also just debating on just waiting for any of my other ones to show up.
Just request a refund. I only got these since I'm waiting for my glass ones to arrive from the homeland.
Okay, got mine and it fits alright but it's badly but near the top so there will always be bubbles. They must use the dullest cutters in the world.
Yea i havent had much luck with any of their products outside of the iPhone Spartan Glass. What really sucked was i ordered 2 Spartan glass for my LG G3 and one for a Nexus 5 and both came in cracked. I had to email them. They refunded me which was cool, but kind of sucks. I guess its just best to go to a BestBuy and purchase the $49 zagg glass protectors.

I've used the wet application. Never had any issues.
I've had a few of these screen protectors in the past and they aren't good. After a few weeks they look awful and feel like crap. Pay a few dollars more and get a tempered glass screen protector.

Well I just got my order. I ordered 3 wet and 3 dry. They look like they were cut out with a machete. Only using them until the tempered glass Nillkin gets here. What pieces of ****. I would never let something like this get into a customers hands. I guess you get what you pay for!

Just request a refund, it's pretty much no questions asked. I'm assuming they know that their products suck, well aside from the tempered glass ones, those are okay.

I just received mine too. Looks like they handed a sheet of film to a first grader with dull scissors and told them to cut it out. Pretty bad. Thankfully it cost less than 2 bucks. Sad because I've used them in the past and they've been pretty decent

Hello guys!
So I have ordered some hardened glass which ended really bad with all the bubbles and also collected alot of dust around the glass which just ended up badly. So now I am here and for everyday when I see if, it just gets me mad.
so now I am here - I need a screen protector that could be for the edges aswell but I do like hardened glass more than the thin' glass - but if there is any better please just say all the ideas!
What I need is to atleast be cheap (Not a rape of 75+$)
- Easy to mount on screen
- Should be really happy when I see no bubbles!
- And shipped to Sweden asap! So I dont need to wait months!
What do you guys have for me to recommend?

I have not yet picked up a screen protector, but the Whitestone Dome does appear to be the best currently available. Just be aware, it's not cheap, $45 USD on Amazon and a bit complicated to install if you are not careful. There are plenty of videos for installation, so make sure to watch those first. I will likely be getting one shortly, just got a case today.
Yeah. I refuse to Shell out the money and ended up paying more the multiple screens I've run through...the best so far was the Hero Shield but the bubbles are ridiculously difficult. I'd stick with the Whitestone.

I concur !! I love the feel, look and touch sensitivity of this protector. Price isn't cheap but neither is the quality of the protector. I gladly pay for a product that is worth the money.
I've heard a lot of good things and might consider this for my next screen protector (currently use Intelligent). Was just curious in what they charge for a replacement if it ever gets cracked? Also, I thought I saw somewhere that you actually have to mail the cracked screen protector back, wait for them to inspect it (and go without one for awhile) before they send a replacement.
Anyone know if that's true?

I'm looking for something cheaper than the white dome that'll work with the fingerprint sensor. On Amazon I stumbled upon this: https://www.amazon.com/Friendly-Qun...red+glass+uv&qid=1556643737&s=gateway&sr=8-54
It seems to be a new product since there are no reviews. Anyone have experience with it?
UPDATE: I decided to purchase it because it had free prime one day shipping and I needed protection. A buddy of mine always buys whitedome and couldn't tell the difference. it was obviously a little more complicated than your regular tempered glass install but it took about 10 minutes of my time to get it almost perfect. Even after I had accidentally spilled some of that glue to the side. Fingerprint sensor still works, no issues there. Fit perfectly with my Spigen clear case. Saved $20 from whitestone, I'm happy.

This is only $15 cheaper than WhiteStone Dome, is saving $15 really worth the possible effects/problems of putting something with zero reviews on your $1,000 device?

It is a tempered glass screen protector... I cannot justify spending $50 on a piece of glass... The price is still somewhat high but it looks like it provides an almost identical experience for less. I didn't ask because I was worried about side effects. I was just curious if the fingerprint sensor would function properly, I probably should have clarified that.

WhiteStone also comes with a extra tube of glue in case you mess up the first installation and a lifetime warranty on their products. Seems worth the $15 over this generic brand IMO.
Why not trying InvisShield? for what I've read it is not as good as whitestone (smoothness) but its a fraction of the cost. I've ordered it and will get it next thursday, could get 2 screen protectors and 3 tubes of glue for less than the whitestone.

Not Bull, but there is a $10 shipping fee for a replacement glass. Similar to other company warranties like OtterBox they charge you $7 shipping for warranty replacement.

And imo whitestone isn't worth the price. I've tried to use them on my past s9 and s9 phones as well as my note series phones. All of them eventually started prying up at the corners and sides from cases. Imo if you cant use a case with it, it isn't worth it. And to be clear I was using spiegen cases.
For this reason I stopped using screen protectors on all curved glass phones.

Sorry to tell you but your issues with WhiteStone are user error and self inflicted. I have also used WhiteStone on the Note8, S9+ and Note9 and never had your prying up issues. But then again I also research and make sure the case I choose fits with the WhiteStone dome glass so they are a perfect match, so if the case you choose rubs the glass and eventually raises the glass that would be your fault and not the WhiteStone. There are "WhiteStone Case Capability" threads here on XDA and other forums online, check them out prior to making your purchase.

I'm not going to get in a pissing contest with you on this, if it works for you then great. I for one buy a case that fits my needs and one that I like, I don't settle for something to conform because its compatible to a product.
It's not user error the loca is spread eventually throughout the entire screen protector and it is cured. This happens after 3 or 4 months after the screen protector is applied not right away. This is my experience with the product. Your mileage may vary and like I said great.

Whitestone dome isn't anything special from the generics. The $50 glass screen protector days are coming to an end for them.
Of course they're still suckers who think cuz you pay more you get more which isn't true

This. When checking on Amazon, a bunch of alternatives don't come with a tray which is probably why they're looked down upon, this does so I see no benefit of having the white dome.
I just bought this and should arrive tomorrow. I'll update with the findings later. Im not about to pay $50 for a screen protector from whitestone, that's ridiculous. Especially since the reviews are so mixed where it's concerned. And im not worried about a warranty, if it goes bad I'd honestly rather just take the loss instead of dealing with customer service ssns STILL not getting a replacement.
I bought a $12 Loca UV TGSP direct from Korea & it works well with the FPS. It just requires more pressure to unlock, kind of like before the FPS update.
I'm glad I waited & didn't shell out $50 for the Whitedome.
