I am planning on using a case with the Note 7 when I get it, but all this speculations that Tempered Glass protectors aren't case friendly makes me think. I don't know which Film Screen protector to go with the Note 7 since I am not familiar with edge to edge protection for this curved screen device. I saw these, but don't know how good they are.

I love tempered glass protectors. Don't use cases on my phones though. Find them kinda useless. Might make an exception for this cause the back is now glass too. Waiting for Tempered glass protector for the back and front. Why make the phone more bulky.
I just ordered a tempered glass screen protector from XtremeGuard (Spartan tempered glass). It's $1.50 (90% off site-wide) with coupon code OLYMPIC90
I think people have been mentioning Skinomi.

I did that as well, got three of them. The email I got said it was "Case Friendly". For $1.50 each I figured what the heck, if it is not great I wasted $4.50.

It appears that is not an edge to edge or curved type. Which explains a lot. I'm searching for something curved.
I've always preferred glass in combination with a case but I've heard from people with the S7 Edge that it is tricky with the curved screen. Hoping it won't be as bad for the Note 7 as it's not as curved.
Anybody got any experience with S7 Edge in combination with a glass protector and case and maybe suggestions?
Here's an article from phonearena that might be helpful as well. I haven't order one yet, hoping for some more tips but will let you guys know when I have + experiences!

I prefer the TPU minimalist ones that will save my corners and back glass but that's about it. I ordered a VSR case for this phone but usually go with Cruzerlite. Barely adds any thickness and improves grip.

You sir live a dangerous life. I could never run around with a naked phone. Even my BB Bolds had a screen protector and TPU case haha
Haha, well I might have a case for special occasions!
A lot of people want premium materials alu glass carbon whatever,and then they cover it with plastic cases ,tpu and all these things..
I am happy to say that I haven't had a screen protector on my last 2 galaxy phones. No scratches or cracks but I do have a thin case.

hmm that's cheaper than the spigen and some others. i may order that and give the rhino sheild that's yet to arrive to my brother, being he's destroyed several phone screens.
#1 reason I don't use glass protectors is because they're hard and trapped dust can't be removed easily. This might actually make me switch to glass in the future. Too bad I already purchased a 6-pack of matte SP's for my N5 which will last me till I dispose of the phone.

I get it but glass make the phone feel so nice
Im hoping someone does a video comparison of the tru glass versus the spigen nano slim. The spigen is 0.23 mm and the truglass is 0.25mm. However I do not believe the spigen protector is flexible like the truglass. I'm sure that helps make it shatterproof if it truly is glass. Because it is soo flexible it makes me think its plastic and not glass. They do have flexible glass screens on phones nowadays but it is technology that is just hitting the market so I would suspect if this were truly glass and this flexible it would cost more than the spigen but it is cheaper !!
The rounded spigen nano is still not out yet so there is still some time for people to get this one and test it out.....cant wait to see the results. One more major thing I'm hoping to get with either one of these glass screen protectors is true smudge proof/oil resistance. That is the most important feature to me...so which ever one is more oleophobic is the one I want.

By that logic, the gorilla glass screens used on all phones and tablets costs $20+ to make? That's more than the cost of the processors in our devices.

It moved a little bit and had some flex to it. It definitely is a rigid piece of glass though. I think it flexes more because of the thinness of the glass piece.

OK guys so I placed this Tru Glass protector and it is awesome, I had a SPIGEN Glass TR on my phone before I put this one (glass tr is the one that has the issues), its super slim just like the Glass Nano TR, it feels great to the touch feels just like the naked screen.
It was easy to put on no bubbles or anything like that.
So I really recommend this protector its awesome, its cheaper than the SPIGEN protectors and in my own opinion its as high quality as the SPIGEN brand.

Curious to see how many G3 owners are using a screen protector or planning to use a screen protector.
I stopped using one on my Nexus 4 and was very happy with it. Over 1 year of use without a screen protector and the screen was flawless. However, I've had my Nexus 5 for about 6 months now without a screen protector and my screen now has 2 deep scratches (you can feel them with your finger and see them in just about any lighting).
Because of my experience with the Nexus 5 screen I'm back to considering going the screen protector route again. However, I'm curious to see what others are thinking regarding the issue.
I should also mention that it is important to me that a screen protector works with a case. I already ordered a TPU case which I plan to use with the phone. Do those glass screen protectors typically work with TPU cases?
Yes and the Spigen nano tempered glass is by far my favorite one.

first off glass screen protectors do work with tpu cases. the only thing that can scratch your screen is sand metal won't touch it (see hardness rating) if you really dislike screen protectors try liquid solutions(ex. Crystalusion) or you could try tempered glass it feels as glass and it won't give bubbles if you hate that hope this post was helpful I added some links with product info

No problem, I have always enjoyed tempered glass. I have yet to have a case where it didn't fit. Since the Spigen nano glass is very thin and it has rounded bezels you won't notice it at all. It also fits almost with maybe < .5mm gap on the left and right side. I had an op with my F400 showing the fit with some cases.

The poll should probably have 2 no's - one that says "but using a case" and one that says "and no case".
I personally dislike the look and extra bulk of cases as well as screen protectors.
No worries about hijacking guys. I'm trying to learn what I can about protective options for this phone anyway.
I gave up on screen protectors a while back but I do not want the G3's screen to end up with the same scratches my Nexus 5 did. I've never tried using a tempered glass screen protector but I've heard great things about them.
I think I'll follow your recommendation and order the Spigen Nano protector tomorrow. I love the idea of having a screen protector that is bubble free. The bubbles and raised edges are why I gave up on screen protectors previously. I imagine the tempered glass one will solve those issues.
EDIT: Is this the Spigen protector you were talking about? $30 seems steep. How long does it last?

I may change my mind and get a glass protector. They're a lot thinner than they were last time I checked (years ago). The Joto one looks good spec wise. It's the thinnest I've seen at .2mm, assuming they didn't just round it down.

Edit: Actually the i-Blason is just as thin and half the price. It's only 8H compared to 9H with the Joto. Not sure if that difference really will matter. It also doesn't state that it's rounded.

Screen protectors will not protect your screen from cracks if you drop your phone on your screen.
But they prevent scratches like a boss.
You might find ones that protect your screen from cracks, but they will cost you a lot.
And they will add height and they might disturb the responsiveness from of your touchscreen.
The cheap ones will do just fine, they might take scratches more easily than the ones that cost $10.
But if you got a scratch on your screen protector you want to change it anyway (i am the type of person that gets irritated and annoyed by scratches on my beautiful screen).
So why spend a lot of money on something that you will change every few months anyway? You should not
Never used a screen protector, never had a screen get scratched. No plans to start.
I'll be using one from now. Phone took a fall from a foot off the ground. Landed screen down and shattered :crying: The screen on the G3 seems incredibly fragile. Ordered the Spigen GLAS.tR today hoping it may help prevent this on my replacement.

Well, on my past phones, I've always used Ghost Armor or Zagg ones because the eBay cheap plastic ones are just ok. This time, I decided to use the tempered glass screen protector route and I know most people don't like them but it's my favourite now. It's like touching the actual screen. Very smooth and not noticeable. I believe 0.3mm thick. Most people who look at it don't even know it's there.
Anyways, just my opinion. I know there are some who really don't like it.

I actually bought it on eBay. I bought 2 different ones from 2 different sellers just to see. They fit perfectly and way easier to install than the regular ones. U just align it and lay the protector down and that's it. It will just smooth out with no bubbles. I removed it easily with no residue or anything and used the other one and it's the same thing. Unless I lucked out but I haven't had any adhesive stuck on my screen at all.

Okay so here's the deal, I was using the orzly tempered glass screen protector and I missed the feel of the matte screen protectors. I didn't want to just remove the orzly one because I spent $10 on it and its still in prefect condition. So I had an idea, LAYERED SCREEN PROTECTORS! I got 6 matte screen protectors on eBay for $3 so I didn't really care if I messed up.
now before anyone complains that its a stupid idea, I know that it could affect the touch responsiveness and so far, it didn't.
Worst case:
-remove both screen protectors
Second worst case:
-remove the matte screen protector from the tempered one.
Best case:
-everything works properly.
CAUTION:
-The only hard part about this is you have to layer them PERFECTLY or you'll have a an uneven finish.
-There will be a border where the matte screen protector hangs off the tempered one since its slightly bigger. Thus might cause the screen protector to lift off if you have a tight fit case.
I'll keep this thread updated on his it handles in the upcoming weeks.

Honestly it worked well but after a period of about a month, the edges of the matte one wouldn't stick anymore since its bigger than the Ozrly protector. I have heard that some tempered ones cover edge to edge but then I assume a tight tpu cases wouldn't fit correctly.
Anyway, I ended up taking it off and am currently using only the tempered glass. The main reason is when I took of the matte, I didn't realize how beautiful the screen was and how much crappier the matte made it look. So I decided to just get used to the tempered glass one which took a little time because my fingers usually drag on the screen. But I honestly did get used to it.

I was a big fan of the matte protectors but since putting the nillkin tempered on, I don't miss the feel of the matte protector.
I also now see how much nicer the screen looks. Matte was great for minimizing reflections but it definitely reduced the image.
Any pictures with both protectors on?

Any pictures with both protectors on?

Sorry I don't plan on ever putting matte on again lol. But if I visit one of my friends I'll take a picture since they use matte.

I meant a picture of the matte protector installed on the tempered glass. I had and have always had matte protectors on until last week when i went to tempered. Not going back to matte, just curious.

It looked exactly the same as on the regular screen except that the top right and tip left corners hang off the ozrly and over time it won't stick anymore because dust eventually gets underneath it.

Greetings all.. I have searched a bit for a normal screen protector that's quality but all I find is glass.
I've never been a fan of glass screen protectors.
Before I would always buy spigen ultra crystal sp but they don't have any for the opo.
I found http://www.evolutivelabs.com/products/oneplus-one but $25 is crazy.
Any input is appreciated and welcomed.

I use regular screen protectors. I tend to change them every 3 weeks or so.
I've bought some cheap ones from ebay as well as the xtremeguard ones (not the HD one you linked). Also note there's always an 85-90% coupon for xtremeguard products. I've recently purchased "HD" non-glass and "fingerprint resistant" non-glass ones from aliexpress which should arrive soon.
If I were to offer you advice, grab a few different kinds of cheap ones. I've found the 5pack ones I bought for around $4-5 with shipping are not bad at all.
Wow.. Every 3 weeks??
I have a nexus 4 right now and have the spigen ultra crystal for about a year and a half and it's still in pretty good shape.
By the way I made an order with xtremeguard with a 90% coupon. I got both the HD and regular screen protector I hope they are good.

With my old phones I never believed in using cases or screen protectors. With my Oneplus I'm a little more careful I suppose.
I change them so often because I have a whole bunch, some of which I haven't tried yet (regular, tempered, HD, anti-fingerprint, etc) and the slightest blemish or anything drives me nuts.
I am also thinking about buying one...deciding between RhinoShiled and Orzly, both seem perfectly fine.
Go tempered glass. It's the best

I have 3 different tempered glass screen protectors sitting on my desk... I've yet to actually try one - they just seem so thick!? Is the only advantage the fact that the touch feel is best?
What thickness? I've used a. 30mm and now I'm on a. 22mm

For me they like the actual screen which is good. I got tired of that rubbery feeling and plus bubbles and peeling. I find the glass to be easier application. Zero bubbles. Try one, if you don't like, go back to the other. No biggie
I have used both the xtremeguard screen protectors on my previous phones and now on my One I got their Spartan Shield tempered glass. Overall, I like the glass protector. It's a little thicker at .40mm, but I don't have any issues with touch sensitivity. Also, it fits the unit very well. I had another tg protector I purchased off eBay, and while it was slightly thinner at .3mm, it didn't fit the screen as well.
Here's the one caveat with purchasing from xtremeguard, it takes a long time to get their products. I live in the next state over from where they ship and it took over a week for me to get it. Also, their packaging is rather minimalistic and the first protector arrived cracked. Same thing happened to a friend with his tg protector. Apparently, they don't have any expedited shipping options.
Never had any issues with their regular screen protectors. Can beat them for the price.
Hope this helps.

Try the orzly tempered glass it has round corners which makes it feel like there is no screen protector on at all.
For some reason I do not like glass screen protectors.

I applied my Orzly tempered glass screen protector in a steamed up bathroom to prevent dust.... Applied pretty easy. Had to do one quick lift to readjust but am real happy with the look and feel. No dust or bubbles. Doesn't seem to bother touch responsiveness either.... I would certainly recommend. Be carful with the install.... You only get one in the package.

I prefer Skinomi screen protectors. They are very good, and have a lifetime replacement warranty.
Skinomi!
So I've used the Orzly, Nilkin, and Rhino Shield protectors. The Rhino shield was an oil magnet and started to bubble/ peel ever so slightly after a while. The Nilkin wasn't nearly as smooth as the Orzly and scratched much easier. So i'd recommend going with the orzly.
So I've this one: https://oneplus.net/oneplus-premium-screen-protector in the Anti-Fingerprint version. That Anti-Fingerprint is not completely true, I can see fingerprints and other oily stuff on it. Also, that version tends to reflect much.
And I somehow got a scratch into it.
Is there someone out there who also has a screen protector, from a 3rd party? Can someone recommend one? I don't really want tempered glass.

Hi,
Try this from Orzly: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KQKATH8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It is a tempered glass one and it works great with cases. It doesn't say that it is oleophobic, but it cleans easier than the actual screen.
I will suggest mocolo glass. This is good for glass protector. http://glass4m.com/product/mocolo-premium-tempered-glass-screen-protector-for-oneplus-one/
The thread starter is asking for "regular" screen protectors, not (tempered) glass ( = like I did) ...
