Hey all,
So I've been trying to follow all the threads here on screen protectors for the Note 7 and it seems like quite the problem. I wanted to know 2 things:
1. Has there ever been a tempered glass screen protector for an edge screen (from S6 Edge onward) that was actually good? any reason to wait for one for the Note 7?
2. Is there a screen protector for the Note 7 that's considered good at the moment? doesn't matter if it's glass or not.
Much appreciated
Have you found a good glass screen protector for the Pixel XL? I don't want a plastic one and I would like to have one that covers all or almost the entire screen.

Intelliglass Pro is full coverage, full adhesive and great feel. Love mine. Try coupon code intelli35 on their website intelliglass.com
Edit: Sorry website is intelliarmor.com
I'll second this.
Have ZERO problems with mine for my XL.
They have great customer service and communication too @intelliARMOR
I had a Spigen full coverage on my first XL and just ordered another for my 128GB I just ordered. Liked it the first go around, I'm sure I will again.

Hello I just recently got my self a pixel 2 XL and I'm looking for a good screen protector. I've done some looking around and found ALOT of options but it seems that screen protector quality has gone way down since I last bought one (for an older phone).
What I'm looking for:
a temptered glass, non do matrix, case friendly, non edge adhesive screen protector that doesn't cost an arm and a leg (for what the product is).
If anyone has had a good experience with anything that would fit the criteria please let me know.
Thank you for any and all responses and recommendations.
I dunno which ones like other people but for me is important protec edge to edge, curved screen protector. I found ome on amazon:

I saw those, and I like the idea and the product seemsd really well reviewed just really pricy for a screen protector. I mean I have most of the stuff that makes those good (i.e. loca, uv lamp) I just don't have the actual screen protector.
Had the Pixel 2 XL since the release and I also used glass protectors but they're just nowhere near as good as they are for other phones. It's really odd that there aren't more affordable screen protectors besides the Whitedome or whatever it's called. It's also the one that I refuse to spend that much money on, lol.
The reviews on Amazon are also insane since a crap ton of them are fake reviews besides the 1 star ones. Although this isn't a glass protector, keep this one in mind. [emoji106]
After trying multiple brands of screen protectors, mainly curved ones, I decided to try a film one. After messing with the S10 and watching the review on this screen protector, I gave it a shot, and hands down, I don't regret it. Has to be my favorite so far, even though I was iffy about it at first.

Applying it was a bit new to me, but I managed to apply it without getting anything underneath it, and I've never been happier.

Three main thing keeping me away from the film screen protectors it's they usually have noticeably more resistance during use than the tempted glass alternatives. How did that one feel when using?

It feels more like the protector that comes with the S10. It's a wet apply, and feels really smooth compared to the other film protectors. I know the film type you're talking about, and I've used this one for 8 days now. I guess the only bad part about this screen would be if you get something under it.
If you do happen to mess up during installation, it says they'll send you another one no problem, but I recommend at least giving this one a shot. [emoji14]

I've recently started using Screenknight film screen protector, and whilst it does have more resistance than a glass screen ... Using it with my Unicorn Beetle Pro (after removing the built in screen protector) it makes my phone feel indestructible ... Much better than the glass because it wraps around the edge of the screen which is then covered completely with my case ... I'd does a have a very slight "orange peel" effect if looking in the right light, but all in all I'm much happier with this than any of the many glass screens I have tried and wasted money on !

Interestingly the OnePlus 7 skins show a pre-order option, this could add some truth to the rumour that only the OnePlus 7 Pro is coming at launch.

They don't have the prism listed for the Pro yet anyway, I'm guessing they're gonna have to test out versions, they'd also have to make a unique mounting block for it.

Most screen protectors will be a pain in the ass because of the curved edge of the display. According to HardwareCanucks it is as curved as the Galaxy S9 or even slightly more.
I ordered one of those tempered glass screen protectors which have the black frame, but according to the product page the glass itself is curved as well and goes around the edge without cutting off important parts of the screen.
Here's the link if you're interested

Nice! Thanks, I do like ultimateshield, bought their protectors multiple times for my OnePlus 5 so hopefully this will do the job well too.
Noticed it's on Amazon UK also for anyone here : https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ultimate-Shield-Premium-Tempered-Protector/dp/B07R6XLVXG

depends on how you apply it, I hope it doesn't change the colours too badly, it would be a crime to that display

Possibly not, the reason for that effect is because the main body of the protector, on previous flat screened OnePlus phones, floats ever so slightly above the screen as the adhesive raises the main body of the protector due to the adhesive only binding on the sides
With the OP7Pro being curved that might not be an issue as the adhesive will be around the curved edge, hopefully holding the rest of the protector against the main body of the screen.
That's what I would hope anyway, will still buy the protector to find out though, all I need is a provider in the UK that will sell me the bloody phone, why it's not available at launch God knows.
Hi all,
I have a few questions around tempered glass screen protectors for curved screens like the Pixel 6 Pro, I was wondering if people had any answers to:
Are there any known brands that do good quality curved tempered glass screen protectors?
Has anyone seen any tempered glass screen protectors for the Pixel 6 Pro that follow the curved edge of the screen
How well do these fit on phones that have cases (I'm looking at spigen rugged armor and have noticed in the past that some screen protectors don't fit properly with the case)
Any input would be appreciated as I want to make sure my Pixel 6 Pro is properly protected from scratches and falls.
At the moment, do not buy a glass screen protector. Where is the screen of the Pixel 6 Pro curved? Until a high-quality curved protection is made

Just this morning this chick was standing next to me on the train and she had a phone with on-scree fingerprint reader and a screen protector. It looked ugly as ѕhit, because there was a hole for the fingerprint.
I haven't used screen protectors in years now. I just don't put my phone in the same pocket as keys and it's good as new.

I'm using a Whitestone Dome Glass on my OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren and there is no hole, where the FPS is...
And there's also no problem with the finger print reader with the applied Dome Glass.
So I really do hope that there's going to be a Dome Glass also for the Pixel 6 Pro (in the past Whitestone always hat a Pixel Dome Glass available...)

I heard many horror stories from people that had to remove the remains of Dome Glass after a drop (shattered, couldn't be removed in one piece). Did that ever happend to you? I planned on using Dome Glass for a while now, but it's quite expensive and I am not really looking forward to damaging my original display whilst trying to remove the debry of the protecting glass...
Any reason why you couldn't put a 6 tempered glass on the 6 Pro? pretty much the same size. You wouldn't want it to go past the curved edges anyway.

You would have a pretty sizable area around the screen protector that doesn’t come up to the case edge. Leaving room for dust to accumulate. Also the selfie camera cut out wouldn’t line up right.
I ordered this one: https://www.spigen.com/products/pixel-6-pro-screen-protector-neo-flex
I know Spigen makes great cases but never tried their screen protector. It's not tempered glass but it was (only) 11 euros on Amazon. In the worst case, if reviews are bad, I'll send it back.
Edit: read some reviews about the same ones for other phones, they don't seem great. I canceled my order for now. We'll see what becomes available next week.
I just bought some LK film screen protectors off of Amazon. I've had good luck with them in the past and the install method they use works great. I might go Whitestone or similar later on after I see some reviews. I had used Whitestone before in the past but from what I've been reading it seems the quality of the glass isn't what it used to be. IDK anybody used a Whitestone lately?

Before I sold my Pixel 2 XL I removed the Dome Glass and that was absolutely no problem.
The Glass came off very easy and the glue sticks to the Dome Glass not the Smartphone Screen.
I also had to replace the Dome Glass on my OnePlus (my fault) and there I didn't have any problems either - the glue sticks to the Dome Glass, the Display remains absolutely clean...
Can't really imagine on how to "kill" the display when removing the Dome Glass...of course, if you're usin a kniw or a screw-driver or any other inapproriate tool...
I'm going with the Ringke Dual Easy Wing. The film curves around and covers the edges and it has stayed pristine for the 1 year I've had it on my Note 20 ultra.

I ordered the ArmorSuit MilitaryShield Screen Protector and see how it does. I may order a protector for the camera lens but I see nothing I like right now.
I ordered the curved Imak 3D Tempered Glass Screen Protector, it will arrive in mid-November.

I didn't see the Ringke on their website.
A few things to answer earlier posts:
Whitestone is REALLY easy to remove, even after it shatters. Worst case you can scrape it all up with a business card. The adhesive is more like rubber cement than a hard glue.
Tempered glass protectors with a hole in them are straight up garbage. Avoid them
The Pro has an Optical sensor, any issues that Samsung users had with tempered protectors don't apply here. Optical sensors work GREAT with LOCA based UV tempered glass protectors. My Oneplus 9 Pro has an Optical sensor and I have the whitestone (and used Aliexpress $3 loca based protectors), they all work fine. The main difference is the quality of glue used, the cheaper ones pull up like crazy after a few weeks.
I ordered a Spigen 2 pack but I am no expecting much, might go Whitedome this time. Curved displays are a ball ache.
I brought this and it arrived a week ago. The glass is curved: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B09FL6GTHJ?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title
I can take a picture of the glass if anyone wants. I however haven't tried it on the phone (since mine won't ship till early Nov), so I don't know how good it is. But the edges are curved.
I ordered 2x Magglass Tempered Glass Designed for Google Pixel 6 Pro Screen Protector (2021) UHD Full Coverage Display Guard (Case Compatible), so I'll give a review when I get the phone and put it on. It was either the sole tempered glass one I could find or one of only a couple. I've never used this brand although I've heard of them and seen them.
By the way, on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ 512 GB (which I love the hardware but hate the software, having come from the Pixel 1), I bought the Note 10+ phones for my wife and I a year and a half ago, and it took a while to receive a screen protector. I dropped that phone at least 10 times before I also received an Otterbox Defender, since a lot of stuff was getting delayed. That phone is just so slippery without a case (I know, this is a screen protector thread).
I'm so glad the screen wasn't damaged before I got the protector on it. The phone came with something basic already on the screen that wasn't really a protector, but it might've helped keep it from damage until I got the rest of my accessories.
