100% full coverage screen protecto

is there such thing aside from the spigen curved one? i heard the spigen ones are garbage. i've used skinomi (they were all right, not as durable), they covered 95% of the screen. the zagg invisible shields were garbage, wasted 25$ and thought it covers the whole screen but it left a huge gap.

Try Tippin Screen protector.

tippin is where its at for full curved protectors.. just remember any case that wraps around the edge tightly is probably not compatible

Does this tippin cover as good if not better than SGP Curved Crystal? The reason I ask is the images on Amazon show that it does not cover the portion immediately above the ear speaker. I love the curved crystal except for the dents that won't disappear. Does the tippin have this problem? Thanks!

the tippin pretty much covers all. ear speaker, sensors+camera, and home button are cut out. if you press on it hard enough with your nail, itll leave a dent. will it go away eventually? dont know, probably not. i think the tippin scratches kind of easily. i noticed a small rainbow line. not sure if its a scratched screen protector or cracked glass. another thing about these screen protectors...you have a small margin for error for placement. i was ocd at first and wanted it on 100% perfect alignment. i tried the tape the side method. thought i had it on perfect, but nope. a small sliver didnt stick because it was on slightly to the left. took the whole thing off and could not put it on as good as before. i spent almost an hr, gave up and ended up with even worse alignment. so my advice is get it aligned the way you want it on the 1st try. since these were a ***** to apply, id like a screen protector thats between full and gapped coverage. but the clarity is good and i think it gets slightly less fingerprints than the naked screen.

The Spigen is good. I would say they are far superior to the Skinomi ones.
I went this route. This is now in my top spot for screen protectors.

This is what I use. It covers the entire screen and is smooth. It also seems to repel fingerprints and is somewhat scratch resistent. Most people looking at my phone can't even tell there is a screen protector on it.

Thanks for the recommendations guys. I really like the Sigen Curved Crystal but am annoyed with the dents. When new, it is barely noticeable at all. I really wish this were available in more durable finish. The Seidio glass screen protector looks really nice but will not work with my case (Element Eclipse)
I am assuming the Realook is almost the exact same as the SGP curved crystal. The cutouts look the same and the hardness rating is the same. Do you notice dents that don't go away? If I were to use my fingernail to type, the screen protector would become pitted all over.

I don't notice any dents, but I use swype as my keyboard of choice. Do you push hard when texting? I let my 4 and 6 year old use my phone often, and I still don't notice much wear. There are a couple of tiny scrathes on my screen protector, and they are only noticeable in direct light at certain angles. I have had the protector on for about 3 months. My old protector (Zagg HD) showed fingernail dents and nicks about a week after I put it on.

the realook 3d forming is essentially the same thin material as the SGP curved crystal. It does dent very easily, but I do find that the dents flatten out and get much better after a day or two. It's not self-healing by any means, but the depth of the dents actually decreases and becomes almost invisible to the eye if the original dent isn't very deep. But I would echo everyone's advice on this thread: these full screen protectors most certainly will not work with almost every tpu case. Any tight fitting case will push up the corners of the protector no matter what you do. I learned the hard way and had to throw out 3 of them. So the cheap ebay s-curve/s-line tpu cases, diztronic, and mercury cases will not work with these protectors unless you get very lucky with your placement. Though I have all these cases and none of them worked with the realook 3d forming screen protector

Thanks Jottle. I was thinking it is probably the same material as the curved crystal. I have found 3 cases that the full coverage works with: UAG, Eclipse Element and SGP Modello. I love the look of the full coverage with these cases but with the dents, I have to replace the protector about once every 2 months.

I am currently using the Seidio Surface case with my Realook screen protector. It works without any problems. I have also used the Rock Quicksand case and the Incipio Sylicriic without any issues.

Just wanted to add that I've now tried the Tippin full coverage screen protectors as well. They are incompatible with my case as well. There are some tpu cases that will work with full coverage protectors. But the extremely tight ones that barely cover the corners will not.

oleophobic glass screen protector?

Searching through threads I couldn't find a clear answer on this. Are any of the tempered glass screen protectors oleophobic? My OPO is a fingerprint magnet right now.

Go for Nillkin, I have used it in other mobile and it is the best.

I've been looking at that one and I think i'm just about sold. Any idea how it will fit with a TPU case? I assume that will stop the edges from getting chipped, which was the only big complaint I saw.

I am using nillkin. Recommended

I'm using a nillkin and diztronic ultra tpu case and it looks great!

you can also buy a thing of oleophobic fluid. it works, and works well. it takes around ten drops, twice, to do it. so the little bottle goes a long way.

Got mine in a Tudia cygen case with nillkin and it's great. You still see fingerprints but I do find them much less than without the protector. Too bad my son dropped it today and cracked it at the top so I'll try a generic tempered glass protector and see the difference.

Phantom Glass makes one (Part: PGS-ONEPLUSONE)
Expensive ordering direct (why are most of these companies like this?).
Lifetime warranty so I guess that's what you're paying for, along with said coating.

Link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00M6LWA2W/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Get any generic tempered glass, haven't seen any without oleophobic coating, you can get it as cheap as +3 $ buying some expensive as 15 - 20 $ is just silly...

The nilkin tempered glass is a must have..! Buy it and you won't regret it!

I had Nilkin but I guess wasn't clean enough and kinda screwed it up. Bought an Orzly next and it fit perfectly, even better than the Nilkin in my opinion.

Ultimate shield
If u want an oleophobic tempered glass, ultimate shield must be your choice,
is very clean and clear, and save me lot of time.

Comment above is correct. I got a Nillkin 9H and it has a coating too. I see water drops sliding back and forth with no traces left on the glass plus when you use it it does gather fingerprints however once put inside the pocket and taken out, fingerprints go away when the phone rubs against the pocket lining. I would say don't go with ultra thin ones go with a regular thickness and middle of the ground for 8-9 dollars. I got a Nillkin with Tudia TPU and its fits, feels and looks perfect.

I ended up going with the Nillkin and i'm quite happy with it. The instructions were hilariously bad, but I got it installed fairly painlessly. Thanks for the suggestions.

Bumper+dbrand+tempered glass?

Right now I have a huge amzer case on mine. I have a couple other tpu cases but, my hands get sweaty this time of month and they get disgusting and slippery. I was wondering if a bumper case+ carbon fiber skin on the back would be enough protection? I already have a tempered glass protector on the front

90% of the time when I drop my phone, it lands on a corner or side, ergo the bumpers usability. The glass screen protectors will protect against scratches from sand, but not much force. Honestly I like having the back so that the lens doesn't get scratched when I put the phone down on a table.

You can try to search for Devilcase in Facebook. I can't post any links yet but feel free to search it. They offer a lot of stuffs for Asus Zenfone 2. They have , TG, Camera Lens Protector, Bumper Case and more.

In the end i settled for http://www.amazon.com/ZenFone-COVRWARE®-Kickstand-Shockproof-Protection/dp/B0129C3HJC perfect mix of size and protection imo

Honor 9 Cases, Screen Protectors and other Accessories

Since there is only a thread for the Nillkin cases and tempered glass I thought it would be nice to have some thread for the accessories in general.
Until this day I tried 3 cases, two screen protectors (films) and two tempered glass protectors.
Case No. 1 ) Slim, silicone case http://www.ebay.com/itm/Transparent-Clear-Silicone-Slim-Gel-Case-For-Huawei-Honor-9/112446352466?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 - Very slim and light case made from nice silicone BUT the protection when dropped would be none. It's not made 100% precisely and since it's silicone it doesn't look any good on the back where it creates bubbles. I've ordered this as the first case to have at least some protection. Nice thing is they include free screen protector but the quality isn't very good - doesn't cover the whole display (I'm not talking about edge-to-edge) and there are 2mm gaps on each side and when the display is on it looks terrible. 2/5
Case No. 2) Nillkin Super Frosted http://www.ebay.com/itm/For-HUAWEI-Honor-9-NILLKIN-Super-Frosted-Shield-Hard-Plastic-Back-Covers-Cases-/152596952252?var=&hash=item23877cb4bc:m:mtNLCAV-KRHaAK2TUOYLPTg - very nice case, really sturdy BUT I have few complaints - it's kinda slippery on the sides but this will go away after some use maybe and the bottom side around jack, charging port and speaker is a bit sharp and if you're holding the phone with the little finger on the bottom it't not really comfortable. Besides that it's really nice case for the price but I expected a bit more. But once again for the price it's more than OK. 4/5
Case No. 3) TPU Shockproof case with "carbon" http://www.ebay.com/itm/Luxury-Carbon-Fiber-Slim-Shockproof-Soft-TPU-Back-Case-For-Huawei-Honor-9-Magic/112325496837?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=412748326145&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 - as you can imagine, there is absolutely no carbon at all, just some kind of "sticker" or what it is. Nevermind, this case is the best of the three. Really nice case made from TPU, sturdy, should have the best drop protection and fits just perfectly. There is a small "rim" around the screen that should protect the screen from scratches when the phone is "face down". 5/5
Screen protector (film) No. 1) Nillkin Super Clear Protective Film - in terms of size the best screen protector I've had. Obviously it's not edge-to-edge but it does cover the whole display with gaps on the edges BUT the display is fully protected so thumbs up for me. In terms of "anti-fingerprint" it's nowhere close to the display or the back but is much better than some noname protector I've got with TPU case. Overall very nice screen protector for free but I'm still waiting for the Nillkin H+ tempered glass and some noname edge-to-edge tempered glass. 4/5
Tempered glass No. 1) Edge-to-edge blue 2.5D tempered glass http://www.ebay.com/itm/9H-2-5D-Full-Cover-Real-Tempered-Glass-Screen-Protective-Film-For-Huawei-honor-9/152593109357?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=452016649496&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 - really nice tempered glass (2 pcs) for the price. It has the adhesive only on the top, bottom and the sides but the application was very easy and the glass holds on even with any of tested cases. It has some "dots" in the screen area so I got no rainbow effect whatsoever. The blue color is a bit different from the original color od the phone but it's not a problem since you have your phone in a case. Overall for the price pretty good. 4/5
Tempered glass No. 2) Normal tempered glass Caliber (bought in CZE) - not edge-to-edge, doesn't cover the whole screen, gaps on the sides. Overall sh*t. 1/5
Still waiting for the Nillkin H+ tempered glass.

Nilkin Amazing H+ Pro is No Go
Got the 0.2mm H+ Pro. It's cover the display area for like 99%, with-out just about 0.5mm on each side, after all still the best.
BUT. The silicon layer doesn't hold the tempered glass on both sides, looks like the phone display curve started a bit earlier than its needed for the protector.
It doesn't stick to the display, making it looks like ****, with 3mm frame from each side. Top/bottom sides stick OK, all the way to edges.
So Nilkin Amazing H+ Pro is No Go for me.

Well, got it yesterday so I'm still waiting to try it but not sure if wan't to :laugh:

cases
sooooo, I bought these from tvc mall. They were so cheap that I bought three different ones with the intent of disposing of whichever were poor. Thing is, they are all good in their own way. The plain bumper is just very slimline. The rugged looking one is cool as it has a stand in landscape mode, and the wallet is exceptional quality, given the price. All three fit perfectly, but the plain bumper makes the power and volume buttons so much more tactile. The rugged one looks really cheap in silver, perhaps black would have been a good choice. As i wasn't expecting much from the wallet one, I also oredered the nilkin wallet but that hasn't arrived yet.

I have also ordered the ultimate sheild screen protector, which is edge to edge, in black as I think it will make an excellent contrast to the silver rear of the handset....which wont be visible when the (absolutely necessary) bumper is fitted!

Ultimate sheild screen protector
.... And the ultimate sheild protector turned up. It is excellent. A word of caution, unless this is fitted absolutely perfectly, it will render one or both of the capacitance keys inoperable. This happened to me as i fitted the sheild a fraction of a millimetre to the right. I carefully removed and replaced it with more accuracy.
Here is a pic of the black sheild fitted to my silver H9, and a photo of the plain bumper fitted from my previous post. Svelt but rugged!

After a couple of hours of use I can say that there has been no loss of sensitivity on the screen or capacitive buttons, but on darker details and the blacks, it does look like the screen is behind a sheet of glass. You will know what i mean if you have used a screen protector which bonds over its entirety, whereas this one has a mild adhesive at the top and bottom of the protector, where the bezels are. A small price to pay i think to protect my new device. It is mostly noticeable in bright light, not so much in low light. And I love the new black look of the bezels with the silver fingerprint sensor still visible.

Right, so, some more hours on....the ultimate sheild has begun to show its flaws. Towards the middle of the screen there is now what i can only describe as a "woodgrain" effect. This could be caused by tiny amounts of moisture getting between the screen and protector, which I guess there is nothing to stop that happening. They offered a refund for dissatisfaction so I guess I will be chasing that up. Pfffft. So disappointed.....

Is there a smart cover for it ?!

Just bought the TPU Shockproof case and it is amazing! It's a very good quality and it doesn't makes the phone feel like a toy.
I really like it and definitely recommend it!

Can you upload a photo of the phone with the case applied?! That would be awesome

The nilkin "sparkle series" wallet turned up. Its awful. Unlike the cheap wallet I purchased, which remains closed under magnetism, the nilkin just falls open and feels poorer quality.
The Ipaky bumper with the clear perspex back is, however, very nice. The only caveat, it sits flush with the screen so offers no protection if you decide to place your device screen down.

I'm waiting for the smart cover case, if it didn't come fast, I'll go with a skin.

I have bought an honor 9 few days ago. Somebody could suggest me a screen protector that cover whole display? With 3D display is so difficult find a good screen protector....

I don't like this type of tempered glass (i know that is the only solution for cover 3d display without space).
So, someone has tested "invisible film screen protector"?

If someone else has tried this protective film, please give us a feedback.

Did someone try the Mofi screen protector? According to a review on Aliexpress it has minimal space at both sides.

I've seen ones from ultimate shield, I'm considering getting one.

Good luck with that. Did you read my earlier post? As the protector does not actually sit on the screen, due to the adhesive around the edges, it is susceptible to the "rainbow effect" which i think is caused by humidity between screen and protector. It seemed to manifest itself after the phone had been in my pocket and warmed up. I don't have an overly sweaty crotch.....
Anyhow, they apologised and promptly sent a replacement and the same happened again.
By all means give it a go and they will refund you without issue.

My thoughts on the Poetic Revolution Case and Poetic Glass Screen Protector(Pics)

Hey Everyone, just thought I'd put my two cents out there since we are all searching for the perfect screen protector and cases. I ordered the Poetic Revolution in white from amazon and their Tempered glass hoping they'd work good together.
Pics- https://imgur.com/a/w9y2yw0
Okay so the case is a pretty rugged case with a nice lip around the screen. The tempered glass fits in the case well. I popped out the plastic built in screen protector on the case since I'm a tempered glass guy. The case is well made and matches my white pixel 3 xl well Very similar to the Supcase Unicorn Beetle pro's I've had and I-blason armorbox but not as bulky as those. Volume and power buttons are super clicky without much force and thats nice. The sides are a nice texture. Its pretty grippy.
The tempered glass is a edge adhesive type with the black border and it works pretty well. Good cut outs and fits the screen well. Will have to see how strong the glue is in long term use. I wish they included a bigger wet wipe, since the one included is tiny and not super damp. Other than that it works pretty well. It's dot matrix and sensitivity is pretty good. Only a tiny bit of rainbowing but some is expected with the edge adhesive type. Honestly ill take that over bubbles and this has none. Overall I'm very happy with it considering I've seen some really terrible glass protectors on here and XDA lol.

I have this case too, the built in screen protector is OK, a LITTLE loose when the weather is cold so you can feel your finger "catch" sometimes. Also worth mentioning that the edge sense is still ok to use. I was worried with how sturdy the build is that it might not activate but this is not the case. I have ordered the stand but my understanding is that wireless charging should also not be an issue. The poetic tempered glass has a 2 star rating on amazon right now so I was worried to try that.
