Is it just me or is it hard to find a screen protector that covers the entire front for the GS3??? I've been to Bell, Rogers and videotron and all 3 had a screen protector that were too small, it seemed to be cut out for the GSIII but left the bezel unprotected and made it more than annoying to swipe on your screen, I purchased 3 in-store and 1 on ebay and all of them, different brand but they were all the same, the covered just the screen and left the bezel nude. I finally had no choice, i was so tired of buying screen protector and havong to return them that i bout the 30$ Zagg Invisible Shield HD at bestbuy. This was the only one that was large enough to cover the front of the phone.
It's not just you; it's due to the fact that the screen for the SGIII is curved (similarly to that of the Galaxy Nexus). The only protector I'm aware of that compliments this feature is the upcoming Steinheil Curved Crystal: http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/sa...creen-protector-steinheil-curved-crystal.html
well, it might be curved but that doesnt prevent people to make their screen protector 2mm wide on each side. I mean again, the screen might be curved but its barely visible, it not practically invisible. The Galaxy Nexus has a visible curve, but not the GS3
He provided a link above to what you want.
And the issue with the curve and a regular screen protector is that it will not properly stick to the curved edges - which was the issue with the nexus as well and thats why most of its screen protectors are cut short too.
The previous version of the ultra crystal did not stick to the edges of the screen due to the curve so they redesigned it to be the one he posted above.
It does not matter if the curve is visible or not, there is a curve.
lol this thread should be locked immediately... Try searching sometimes. It has been posted numerous times that the only covers that fir the whole screen at the moment are the wet install ones like Zagg.... Regular static cling one do not work because the are made from ridged material and are one FLAT piece which will not stick to the curved down sides..
SGP Flex HD covers the entire screen, but it's a wet install. It's close to impossible for a dry install cover to do full screen due to the curves.

Wet install protectors will cover the whole screen, dry install protectors won't. Simple as that
ATT's dry static cling screen protector made by "Moshi" does. I have had it from day one and I like it. I mean its not cheap but it gets the job done! I might install a ZAGG protector one day but not yet. I like the one I currently have.
yeah i hear you..i just installed a nano clear love it but not full on the corners..this will solve it..pre ordered
http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/sa...creen-protector-steinheil-curved-crystal.html
Most screen protectors that are short of covering the whole screen these day are made that way on purpose, so that if you put on a case that grasps the bezel and or over a portion of the screen's edge, it won't lift up the protector..
Just a simple review of the 3D mask film, the product comes with all the neccessory stuff to make the application easy for the user.
The brand is from skinplayer and use material from a company called max film, item is made in japan and packaged in korea.
cost is a little more that the sgp and comes only with one protector.
bubble removal stick
dust removal
sticker to help position the screen and screen protector
cleaning cloth
first look at the protector looks just like a ordinary PET material sp, there is 3 things that stands out this product from the other offering like tridea, sgp and AT.
patented design for easy apply
99% total full edge to edge coverage
hybrid crossed between normal PET and wet apply like invisible shield (my personal opinion)
applying the protector is very easy, the most important is to have a total clean screen free from dust or what evers on the screen.
Removing the center part of the pre-screen protector and slide the protector in place, either just use the supplied protector tabs to hold in place or just touch the center and the screen protector starts to stick to the screen.
pressing down the center then slowly remove the two sides of the pre-screen protectors.
using the bubble remover to get all neccessory bubbles out and to push the edge of the protector to cling onto the egde.
the protector is dry apply and does have a self healing surface, you can see this when using the bubble remover.
The protector has a smooth finish, and is bubble free (well so far), without looking at the cutout from the speaker, camera hole and home button, you won't noticed you have a screen protector on, it's totally glossy clear.
I want to buy one.. but nothing shows up searching for skinplayer hd s3 in goolge =[

Seems easier to apply it, but still the same. Protector is a protector, nothing more than that.

Unless there is an authorised dealer, no you won't get it, but ebay soon or later should have them, i've seen ebay with skinplayers products before.
hey are you still using this screen protector? i just wanted to see how it was holding up so far. edges peeling, yellowing screen, or anything?
also how is this protector at preventing fingerprint or smudges?
thanks.
Hi everyone. I searched the forums for screen protectors, and what I found was a whole lot of threads on various screen protectors out there, but nothing centralizing these discussions. So I thought I'd create this thread.
1. What type of screen protector do you use?
2. How has it held up?
3. Have you gone without a screen protector?
4. If so, do you have any scratches?
5. What's the most you have paid for one?
6. What's the cheapest you have paid for one?
7. Any Rants? Any Raves?
8. Any you would recommend?
9. Any you would want to try?
10. Any tips to putting certain ones on?
Let's help each other out by sharing our knowledge on screen protectors for the HTC One.

Zagg HTC One High Def Screen Protector - Amazon
I think Zagg makes the best screen protectors, I have used them on both the HTC Droid Incredible and the HTC One. The Zagg screen protectors are not the cheapest option for screen protectors especially if you go for the ultra clear model but I think the cost is worth it, especially since zagg offers warranty replacements, you only pay for shipping. With the warranty replacements, registering your product on the Zagg website is quick and easy, there are no serial numbers you need to have or anything, you only need to tell them what device you got it for and which model screen protector you got.
Another benefit of the zagg shields is the lifetime of the screen protector, in my experience the screen protectors lasted almost 2 years for my Droid Incredible before I replaced it, the screen protector started to come off around the edges of my phone. While the screen protectors do age, I would much prefer the aged screen protector opposed to any damage to my screen. In my entire life of my Droid Incredible, bought in April 2010 and still used as an e-reader by my girlfriend today, there is not one scratch on the screen thanks to the Zagg shield.
While I have not personally tried the Verizon 3 pack of screen protectors, I have had friends use them and they were disappointed with the quality of them, the biggest issue was having the screen protector stay on.
Zagg screen protectors have done such a great job in my opinion I have not wanted or even thought of trying another brand.
As for tips to putting the Zagg brand on, make sure you wash your hands before you do anything, clean the screen so their is no oil, fingerprints, dust or anything else on the phone, make sure the spray gets on both the screen protector and the screen but do not soak either, just enough spray to cover the phone and protector. I found it best when applying the screen protector to start at the top of the screen in one of the corners and work your way to the opposite top corner then work your way down, make sure to use the applying tool they put in the packaging, be sure to use a good amount of force when use the tool but be careful not to apply too much pressure and crack the screen.
If you do not want to try putting the screen protector on yourself, you can go to the Cell Phone employees at Best Buy and have them put the screen protector on. You do not need to purchase the protector from Best Buy, but they charge you a fee to do it. The major benefit of this is that if they screw up and ruin your protector they will replace it.
I tried the Verizon 3-pack when initially purchasing the one. While they are decent, I knew I wanted something a little more rugged.
I did some research and ended up settling on the Mime USA Feather lite tempered glass screen protector. It's super thin and flexes nicely when unboxed, so it's highly unlikely to actually shatter like other tempered glass protectors. It's extremely scratch resistent. I tested car keys, nails, and knives on the screen protector after applying it to the phone and absolutely no marks showed up. It fits perfectly to the parameters of the screen and is hardly noticable after application. I would highly recommend this product. I ordered it from the Mime USA website for about $28, they even threw in a code for free shipping!

I usually don't use screen protectors and whenever I put on a case, I take it off an hour later. I've had the phone for like 9 months now and the screen is fine. There are tiny little scratches but you can't notice them unless you try really hard to, they don't affect the clarity of the screen in any way. I just don't like using screen protectors because they attract finger prints and smudges so easily even when I try a more expensinve screen protector. Honestly the screen will be fine for a long time. Yes there will be extremely tiny scratches but you won't care because they're almost non-existant. But one thing to keep in mind though, is that sand is crazy harsh on the screens, so I'm extra careful when I go to the beach with my phone. That's when I suggest putting on a case and a screen protector. Because even if a tiny bit of sand getes in your pocket, it might cause a little damage. Right now my phone is brand new since I got it replaced because of a camera issue, and I just can't get myself to stick with putting on a case or screen protector, I had a screen protector on it but I took it off 2 weeks later because I miss the naked screen.

Reviews go with what you said. I think when I buy my next screen protector when my zagg wears down, I'm going to try one of these.
i'm using an invisible shield screen protector. Went on pretty easy, there were no bubbles, and it's pretty thick. I've only had it on for a week, so I can't say much about durability, but it's pretty good as far as a screen protector goes. I'm still very partial to those matte finish screen protectors, so i'll probably be picking up one of those in the future.

Got a MIME Feather myself about a month ago or so now, and I must say that it's the best choice I've ever made as far as screen protection. I'd had a Spigen and some other tempered glass brand, but they were both just too thick and noticeable on the screen. The Feather is perfect because it's hard to even tell it's on there, plus it has the Oleophobic coating to prevent smudges and fingerprints. Seriously, don't even waste your money on another screen protector. You can't beat the MIME Feather.

+1 what he said, minus the experience with Spigen. The MIME Feather is the first glass screen protector I've tried, and I don't think I'll ever use anything else. It's superb and well worth the premium price. With that on the screen and a Ballistic Shell Gel case on the rest of the phone, I don't worry about it too much.
I got a EBay $6.99, Chinese made, 0.4mm thick tempered glass screen protector a few weeks ago.
Went on really well, no bubbles and sticking down along all edges and corners. Has the beveled edges on the glass so no sharp edges.
Far better than ANY plastic one i have used on any phone. Touchscreen works well with it on.
Actually hard to notice now its on unless you run your finger from the speaker onto the screen , so the REALLY thin ones must be pretty close to invisible.
I polish up the screen every 2-3 days. Does get prints on it, so maybe the expensive ones have a better oleophobic coating??
For the price, most excellent.

so it's basically putting another layer of glass on top of your screen? Like putting a slide cover on a microscope slide? I wonder if that'll make screen touching a little imprecise (or any more than having a screen protector.

Its definitely putting another layer of glass on the screen. You have to be careful and get it in the right position 1st time as they dont move around once stuck down. Removing them without breaking is, i suspect, very difficult. The "tape hinge" method of application works pretty well.
I have found the touch sensitivity on mine to be great. Certainly there is no difference to the "usability" of the phone, and the smoothness an feel is as good as the original screen.
I did read one review where the buttons on screen wouldn't work with a glass screen protector, but that has certainly NOT been my experience. From what i have read the thickness of these has come down from around 0.6mm in early incarnations to something like 0.15mm and being flexible in some brands.
I got a 0.4mm one. No scratches as yet. Its supposed to be very hard (9H??). I had no issues with fitting my case on after installing the screen protector.. Its a cheap silicone and hardback model that provides good corner protection. Hopefully the screen protector will help if it falls on its face sometime.
What about Just Like Glass?
Has anyone tried it?
Didnt know protectors like the Mime feather existed. Will have to try it out.

Just bought my first one a month ago (MIME Ghost), best screen protector I have ever used. It's definitely scratch resistant and feels like the original screen. Not sure how it will hold up to drops, but that's not something I am willing to test.
Had a friend buy some Write Guard screen protectors for his HTC One. I installed one on his HTC One. Screen protector was all ready getting all kinds of scratches in it. No Bueno.
I used the XtremeGuard screen protector for a very long time on my HTC One, but recently I decided I wanted a matte finish screen protector, so I switched to Tech Armor Anti-Glare. Feels much nicer to me and gets a lot less fingerprints and smudges.
I was using the protector that came with the UG case. After reading this thread, I picked up a MIME. Very impressed. It goes on dry, was easy to remove and reposition and left absolutly no bubles (these drive me CRAZY). It has somewhat finger print resistant and I did not heave to deal with wetting the protector, then waiting 24 hours to see if all the bubles went away. Best screen protector I have purchased and believe me, I have tried at least 20 different types over the years.
I have had no issues with the touch sensitivity. You can't even notice it's on unless you look really closely at the top edge.
Using the screen protector that came with my otterbox comuter and it is quite terrible.
The screen protector has been on since April and it is already deteriorating. The spots where I'd swype, type show heavy signs of use. With a faint finger swipe over the screen you can actually feel the difference.
Other than that, the actual performance isn't the worst. Glare and all in the sun is bad, indoors though I don't have any issues.
Will look into MIME.
Cheers,
Just picked these up while I wait on the perfect tgsp. Have to say I am super impressed...I may just roll with these for the time being. Covers full screen and edges with a built in curvature. Don't know how they stick but they do. Running an OEM case so I can't comment on the case friendliness other than the flip cover which is perfect.

These prevent scratches, but do they also prevent the screen from cracking if you drop the device? I went with glass screen protector but that's because in the past, any time I've had issues with dropping the device, the glass screen protector cracked or shattered, but the device's actual screen protector was intact.

No protection from cracking with these... Only meant for scratches.
These new tempered glass protectors with the black surround adhesive are terrible. Poor touch sensitivity and a weird hollow feel/sound because they don't actually sit flat on the screen. Are there any non-adhesive tempered glass protectors that are worth looking into? Amazon reviews are spotty. for every brand and every type of protector for the G8.

Using the LK film protector I linked earlier. Goes on like the ringke film, using multiple steps and doing 1/2 at a time. Feel is good. A little stickier than a tempered glass protector, but it's solid on the screen. No air gap. I think it might be interfering with the crystal sound display a bit. Volume seems a little lower now.

I have several of the Ringke stocked up, they have a great installation process. I personally enjoy the film (dry application) protectors more than glass as they have a much slimmer profile. The downside is that they offer little impact protection and can be imprinted, but they're cheap enough that I just keep a few around and change them as needed.
This was the only full-adhesive glass protector I could find. DON'T buy it! I left pics in my Amazon review showing why: Our screen glass curves before the pixels end. The only way to have a flat piece of glass stick to the whole screen is to cut it smaller than the visible screen edges. This one hangs off the sides by 3mm, rendering the edges useless.
[2 Pack] LG G8 ThinQ Screen... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07NZZ6YGY?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
I've just ordered the only one I could find that claims to be smaller than the screen area, but the description still makes it a bit tough to know what to expect.
https://www.amazon.com/Compatible-Protector-Coverage-Tempered-Adhesive/dp/B07QJ41M2H
Update: DON'T BUY THESE. This one is even worse, as it's way too tall. Again, the scroll bars don't work because you can't touch them. Total trash.
Unfortunately, unless they make one with genuinely curved glass that follows the screen, there won't be a useful full-adhesive protector for our phone. It looks like every glass protector is flat. They advertise rounded edges, but are still flat glass. If you don't believe me, please look at the pictures I've left in the Amazon reviews. These should never have been made.
Tempered glass is used to protect the screen from scratches and also Protect direct damage of the screen. any branded Tempered Glass is famous with their Hard surface and smooth working. I always prefer Casper Tempered Glass and Whitestone dome Glass.
Add this one to the list of screen protectors that don't work. It won't lay flat on the sides. Long air gaps up/down both sides.
Here's the item description on Amazon. I can't post links yet.

Full Body Skin
You may want to think about giving the Skinomi Full Body Skin a try. I wouldn't say that it feels as smooth as a glass protector, but it does wonders at protecting the back of the phone. It also keeps it from slipping off of surfaces and easier to hold! Very nice for those times when you don't want to wear a case. The back protector doesn't interfere with any cases, and the front protector covers the entire screen of the device. Skinomi's warranty is pretty legit too.
I've used it on my Nexus 4, v30 and now the G8.
I'm using an AILUN screen protector with a SPIGEN TOUGH ARMOUR case and they fit and work perfectly together. Got them both off EBay.
I was wondering if screen protectors might dull the sound, since the screen itself is a speaker.
I just placed the wet install IQ Shield on my new G8. I haven't even turned it on yet as I'm in a contract on a stupid Note 9,but I like them on my last 4 devices.
