eBay glass screen protector

Hello,
I bought an off brand glass screen protector for my ONE and received and applied today. It's better than I imagined it would be. And way cheaper than the spigen or seidio. Watch the unboxing here

And what it looks like after being applied.

I'm about to order one. How did you go about applying it?

Let us know how it goes after a weeks worth of experience with it! I'm interested in purchasing one myself!!!
Also, what is the thickness that you picked?

Very carefully. Lol. I lined up the bottom edge with where the metal and glass meet. Its easier than explained. I did mess up the first time, it was crooked. I used tape to pull up the screen protector then lined it up again. The instruction says to push down on the center. I didn't have to it automatically started to suck itself onto the phone screen. Definitely an interesting thing to watch. It stopped before it was completely adhered. So I did have to put pressure on the edge. The are tiny micro bubbles that are seen immediately after adhesion, but they dissipate after some time. however my corners seem to not be adhered correctly. I left it over night with an iPad on top to add weight hoping it would flatten out. No such luck. I'm wondering what else i can try...

I will. It's 0.4 mm thickness. I can tell you this the oleophobic coating is worth it. Plastic screen protectors are always greasy and you can't seen to wipe it off enough. These don't have that problem. I'll keep you updated though.

I have one of these, from the same supplier arriving this week. Do you use a case on your phone? Interested to know if this interferes with the fit of it if you do.
Interesting to hear your account of fitting this. I thinks i will securely tape a carefully aligned straight edge steel ruler to the phone and use that as a bump stop type tool to try and get it on first go.

You reffered to the SGP model of the glass screen protector, due to the packaging.
My question, how sharp are the edges of this screen protector with swiping the toolbar down for example, since SGP released a rounded version of the protector to get the sharp edges of.

I'm using this protector (same Chinese) knockoff I bought on amazon. With a super sweet case/bumper also purchased on amazon.. the glass is slightly narrower than the stock screen. I have no issues with the glass and the case.

They aren't sharp like a piece of glass in a picture frame. It's somewhat beveled but not rounded off and super smooth. Well worth the money for me.

ah, okay dope, thanks man. May order soon tho!! But I'm still waiting for some stuff for my phone so after that I'll see if you got any updates on the screen!

Got the same screen protector from the same supplier as the OP today.
Very easy to install. No bubbles
Nice rounded edges, and as it is lightly smaller than the screen, my case fits well.
Texture very slick. Once on and in the case you wouldn't actually know it has a screen protector on apart from the small rise next to each speaker which you would take as part of the phone if you weren't familiar with the HTC One..

I will never go back to plastic SPs. This is legit! Even though an edge didn't completely adhere this thing rocks.

Spigen crystal clear screen protector

Greetings,
Haven't really found a thread about this in here, but haven't looked for it very well.
My question is if this spigen screen protector is good: http://www.spigen.com/brands/google/nexus-5/nexus-5-screen-protector-steinheil.html. I'm happy with my spigen screen protector on my nexus 4, but the one on the nexus 5 doesn't seem to have any cut-outs for the front camera and sensor. This while other screen protectors for the nexus 5 do have it. Will it hamper the camera or sensor in any way?
Thanks in advance!

Using one right now. Proximity sensor and camera work just fine, don't worry. It's also a perfect fit, goes right to the edges of the glass and is completely invisible on the phone unless you're looking for it.

Yeah, I can second this. No problems with the proximity sensor. The protector is nearly invisible and feels almost as good as glass.

This thread is about the spigen one. Why are you asking about nillkin????????????
Back on topic. The spigen is good. The one cut out is good. When it is clean you can hardly tell it is there.

Is this the same one that comes with the cases? If so I like it. If you get it done right the 1st time it's great. I put it on my fiancee's phone and she didn't even notice there was one on there. It fills out to the edges perfectly

yes. I like them so much I ordered some for my wife S4. It needed replacement. So far, crystal clear. and they handle scratches well.

Finally! Screen protector

I've tried 6 screen protectors and finally found one without any issues. #5 was a zizo and it fit but had a stupid rainbow and the top corner randomly broke in my pocket after a month.
I bought this one on ebay. It covers the whole screen, fits perfectly, has a curved screen, no rainbow, air bubbles, and doesn't lift up at the ends. I'm finally happy with my screen protector
http://www.ebay.com/itm/252678476834

Do you use a case with the phone?

I thought someone tried this on the main thread for screen protectors and said it was just another Zizo. I really don't care about the rainbow. I just hate the smudges

It looks similar to zizo but it isn't (I've bought both).

So, this is interesting, I bought the zizo combination case and glass screen protector combo amd it looks EXACTLY like the one you're mentioning here. It's actually really great. No rainbow or bubbling and full-screen exactly like this one.

Sorry, the only way I have to take pictures is with the phone itself in a mirror (not terribly useful) or with the web cam on my new laptop which of course is of an awful quality. Here is the best I could get...

Would be nice if you use a friend's phone and take some pictures of the screen protector installed. I'm not being rude and appreciate your attempts at photographing it, but honestly they're pointless as they show us nothing

For $7 I'm going to give it a shot. Same price on Amazon for Supershieldz and 2 day delivery. Will update when installed
UPDATE: My Supershieldz TGP arrived and before heading out of town on business I installed and can confirm NO HALO. This is not just a Zizo close. Been using it for a couple of days now and while there is still smudging it's not as bad as the Zizo. I'll try to post some photos using my 6p when I get home

U can't see anything in those pictures.

I've ordered a zizo and a couple of the others that look the same and I'm done. All the ones I get smudge like crazy and have the rainbow effect.
I'm just gonna wait until there's a definite consensus on one that doesn't have those issues.
I'm currently using an Armor shield wet protector and it's pretty good for plastic. Better than the glass protectors as far clarity/smudge resistance but the glass is obviously better as far as feel goes.

Anybody knows a good matte/Anti-Glare screen protecror that covers the whole screen?

I pried my wife's iphone 7 plus out of her hands long enough to take these.

Is there adhesive on the clear part of the glass? Not just on the black trim. That's the cause of the oil spill under the screen. No adhesive to hold it tight to the phone like the clear tempered shields.

Not a clue, but whatever is holding it on is clear with no bubbles, bumps or rainbow oil slicks.

Samsung screen protector for S10+

Has anyone been able to purchase the stock original screen protector that came with the phone? I swear I saw it briefly on Samsung Canada site under accessories page but it's no where to be found now.
Stock protector feels so smooth once you applied a oleophobic coating on it! Not to mention perfect fitment for the phone.
Part number: ETFG975CTEGCA
Does UK, US or other country Samsung sells the stock protector?
Thanks
Sent from my SM-G9750 using Tapatalk

I believe they're 18.99 for Samsung UK (ET-FG975CTEGWW). Samsung US has a supply of them, but they are not accessible via sales.

It is 19.99 here in the States.
I was able to purchase one but not going to get it shipped till 4/5.

Got myself a Gadgetshieldz screen guard for the S10+ when I ordered my skin from them. It’s a self healing one and no scratches till now and most importantly it works fine with the fingerprint scanner. This one looks much better than the actual Pre-installed Samsung screen guard. The screen and guard cost me only around 10$ including shipping.

To each his own I guess, I hate self healing skins as they have a orange peel finish and it drags/not smooth. The Samsung original one is PET material, not as smooth as glass but much better than self healing protector.

I'm using the screen protector for a while, No orange peel effect. And it is not a glass protector, It's a plastic protector as you know it's more smooth than glass.

How do you apply the oleophovic coat? Where can I find it?

You get 2 protectors (3-5 would've been nice) and they are made in Korea just like the phone. The packaging mentions shock protection, dunno how valid that statement is!

Otao Screen Protector for S10 Plus
I always liked the GLASS Otao Screen Protectors so I thought I would try the plastic one when it came out on Amazon. To Be honest, I was very pleasantly surprised.
Easy to install (Dry install and not wet) and there were no bubbles or any issue after I installed. I have been using it with a Case (Ringe Crystal Fusion) for about a week and I am very happy with it. Fingerprints work fine with it.
2 Screen Protectors - under $6.00 - Great Price! LINK

I peeled off my screen protector, the fingerprint is instant now. And the feel is much better.

Do these have the same cutout for the front camera or is the whole corner cutout?
Saw someone say that the whole corner was cutout.

It is the whole corner cutout.

I've been using these for the last 3 devices. No issues. On my S10+ the top keeps trying to lift. I'm on my 4th one now and about to give up. They install perfect reach time but after a few days you can see it starting to lift near the top bezel. No case touching it. Anyone else having these issues?

I have the same issue without a case as well. If you look closely you'll see that there is still a thin strip of adhesive keeping it dust tight but still lifting around the edges.

Are there any dry application screen protectors that cover the entire screen like Samsung protector? Those case friendly protectors look weird since they leave margins on the display

Same here, i have been using them since Galaxy S8+, never had any issues, once fitted it stayed good until damaged or removed. Now for S10+ i've had 3 replacements under warranty as it is lifting up or peeling of as they call it, and it is not even close to the edge, i have another replacement waiting to be fitted so i will try to put more glue maybe? as it looks like there is just about in the tube, I am so tempted to remove it and have just natural screen without any protectors but it is an expensive phone

All sold out here

What tempered glass screen protectors and Case's are you guy's using on your device?

Are carbon-fiber Case's worth the money? Thanks In advance!!!

Thanks how does fingerprint work for you. I got this one coming tomorrow.

preinstalled screen protector that comes with the phone. usually brand marketing would blow up their specs, often times stating anti scratch etc. the one that comes default is the anti scratch one.
araree wallet case modified with the transparent hard case that comes with the phone. the only downside is a covered top. if you wanna swap out sd or sim card, you need to remove the case which is difficult. playing on gear ve 325, current model, is difficult too as you need to remove the case.
