Native Screen Protector? - Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions &

Got my s20 ultra in the mail today! I had purchased a whitestone dome glass screen protector! but low and behold the s20 ultra has a film screen protector pre installed! I'm debating removing it for my nice tempered glass one as the fold had left a nasty taste in my mouth when people were removing it and it was breaking their screen. I wonder if this "native" protector will be the same. Ya this phone doesnt fold and its just a screen protector... but hey you never know!
So my question is are you going to replace the protector that came with the phone as soon as you get it?

From what I have seen, this screen protector is the same as the one that comes with the S10 line.
You will not damage the phone screen is you remove the preinstalled protector like you would on the fold.
To answer your overall question, I will keep it on until i receive my tempered glass screen protector.

Good to know! I kinda figured seeing as this is a "regular" phone that wasnt going to damage the screen. BUT you never know! Samsung did omit that information on the fold at the start. lol I will probably switch mine out.... I really dont like the feel of the film one.

I got mine today and the screen protector was all scratched up. It felt rough when I touched it. I was worried the actual screen was messed up so I peeled it off. It was just the film that was a problem. It would have driven me crazy. I kept the film on my Note 10 Plus and would have done the same here but I would have peeled it off eventually anyway.

If you do take it off immediately with no replacement, don't end up like ...

OUCH! lol

Due to difficulty I had removing a Dome from my Note 10, looking for another brand glass screen protector for an S20 for someone?
I see even zagg does not have a real glass one. The owner does not use the fingerprint sensor.
Thanks,

Screen Protectors!

Hi guys,
Can you recommend good quality screen protector? Any good brand?
I looked but I don't think I want one. I'm a fan of glass and I don't see that happening for the watch.
I got a set of 6 EZGuardz screen protectors on EBay for less than $3. It fits right to the edge of the glass perfectly and is 100% invisible. I can feel a slight difference when swiping. It's just a tiny bit less slippery feeling. But the peace of mind knowing that I'm not gonna accidentally scratch the screen is well worth it.

I bought a set as well
I bought some Skinomi MatteSkin protectors that fit well enough, but I thought they made the screen look too fuzzy. I usually like matte finish anti-glare screen protectors, but I didn't like these particular ones on this watch. I'm going naked for now.
I ordered a set of two from XtremeGuard's website. They have a promotion going on where you can get 91% off using the promo code Christmas91 and purchasing three items. Should get it in the next few days. Will report back.
I bought the Skinomi TechSkins (the kind that you have to spray before applying) and I am happy with it. It has a lifetime guarantee (or so they say) but I have 6 of em so I doubt I'll ever need to take them up on that. It had a few bubbles for the first day or two but those started to face and now it isn't even noticeable. I can feel a slight change in the ability to slide my finger on it, but i'm comfortable with it.
Received my XtremeGuard protector (ordered 2, but only received one). Applied just like their other protectors, which was very easy. Looks good and no issues whatsoever. Not bad for the price either considering it was 91% off.

We Have Gorilla Glass 4!

Check it out we have Gorilla Glass 4, same as Galaxy 6. Apparently, Samsung kept this secret because Corning asked them to due to it not being ready for product announcement. http://www.corninggorillaglass.com/en/products-with-gorilla/samsung/samsung-galaxy-note-4
http://www.corninggorillaglass.com/en/glass-types/gorilla-glass-4
“In laboratory tests, Gorilla Glass 4 survives up to 80% of the time when dropped from 3 feet high and is up to 2 times tougher than competitive glass designs.”
Already scratched mine
Seems to scratch easier than gorilla glass 3....
Lol running with no screen protector is asking for scratches... unless you have microfiber pockets?
I don't put mine in my pocket. Never have.
Nope. But never really got a scratch on any iPhone or Android I've owned before and this one has tons of micro scratches. Doesn't really bother me. Put a glass screen protector on it and don't see them anymore. First things I tell all my friends that want to buy them is get a screen protector and no root yet... lol
Never scratched my note 3, several scratches on the 4. I baby it more than I did the 3.
Great. Still run with a tempered glass screen protector. $6 well spent, no scratches on that one yet, either, and I've had it since I got my phone in October.
where's my sapphire screen.. wish apple had one so Samsung would copy it
Already replaced my entire digitizer after a week of having it ...

Right? I farted and my screen was scratched.
If the screen were made from diamonds I think some of you would still find a way to scratch it.
i thought it only has gorilla 3, anyway, i always apply tempered glass screen protector on every phone i owned (saved me so many times indeed! )

[Q] Original Screen Protector (I9301i)

Hi all,
Yesterday I scratched my screen protecter and it is really annoying when im using the phone.
I really like the protection that comes with the phone orignially and I want to know where can I buy an original or atleast with the same quality.
I've had some screen protector on older phones and the interaction with the display was so horrible because the finger not slides smoothly.
Im also not interested in tempered glass.
Im sorry for my bad english.
Thanks in advance :good:
I think you cant buy the original one. Go to your countrys samsung page and look there.

Its nearly impossible to get an original one but may be you can get a screen protector having A plus quality from Samsung outlets.
Just to let you guys know I went to a Samsung assistence store at shopping center, I bought the screen protector for about 12€ and they offered to place it there at their own risk
Im verry satisfyed and i recomend you guys to do the same if you want to replace your screen protector because doing it by yourself its kind of hard to place it bubble free.
cheers

Are third-party screen protector really that bad?

My 2 cents on that. One of the best screen protectors I've ever had is the one I bought for S3 Neo: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/3-X-...sung-Galaxy-S3-III-i9300-t999/1252290349.html
Why? It's anti-glare, which makes S3 Neo Screen to be extremely readable even with lighting bulbs being reflexted in field of view.
You can see the difference below. Please compare how the plant reflection can distract your eyes when anti-glare is not applied.
1. Standart protector (on my tablet):

2. Anti-glare protector I am talking about (I've applied a protector 1 mm too much to the right, which causes its right edge to be slightly non-glued because of front face curveness. I did not want to try to fix that, since the center display surface is applied perfectly.):
I think it's worth trying for that price (note that you have 3 pcs for $0,64). It looks good with my UAG case, it may be much worse looking when you don't use any case.

Liquid Screen Protector

So I've noticed a lot of people on here are worried about glass screen protectors for this phone since it has round edges and the protector doesn't actually cover the edge. I have a "liquid" screen protector that I got for my Moto 360 a while ago but I've been too afraid to use it. The instructions it came with are very vague. Does anyone have experience with this stuff? (I've seen it used on other devices, supposedly)

So, I don't have any experiences, but I think that it have too work. As far as I know these liquid screen protecters work on all kinds oft glasses. But around the camera is maybe a slit where this liquid glass could come in, so take care
Sorry for my bad english, i'm from Germany
I also had a liquid screen protector for my previous phone. It was a bit scary and looked difficult to apply. But it was really easy. Also think that it protects better than glass screen protector, because of the finish. Front camera wasn't really a problem since it is a clear surface.
This glass screen protector fits perfect!

I'll give this a try
Had one of those but didn't like it.
Installed as well as that one with the edges hanging off, kept snagging it with my fingers.
Fitted well with the 2 styles of official cases (plastic and silicon) but wouldn't fit with a Spigen.
Also didn't like how the black borders on the sides took away screen real estate.
Using another style but still not enough coverage, just need 1 millimetre more and it would be perfect.
My 2c.

Huness Full Coverage Tempered Glass Screen Protector + TPU Case

When I ordered my Pixel 4, I ordered a few various screen protectors and cases to have ready when it arrived. I'm very happy to report that the first one I tried out has turned out so well that I just threw all the other cases/protectors in a drawer to collect dust.
Amazon Link ($7.99)
I installed the case first to use as a guide to install the protector and the end result is the most perfect protector install I've done on any phone, with perfect alignment and no dust trapped underneath. There is no "halo" line to be seen where the clear part of the protector meets the black border around the edges, either. I was quite worried about that.
I initially intended to use this protector (or another one) with a Spigen TPU case, but the case that comes with this protector is so good (with a slim snug fit and perfectly tactile button feel) that I have no desire to remove it. I love the combo so much that I decided to order another one to have as a spare in case they ever disappear from Amazon.
Anyway, I just wanted to share this with others who may be looking for full coverage protectors. Here are a few pics I took. Any dust seen is on top of the protector. Living in a brand new house, it's impossible to escape, unfortunately.

Does the screen protector adhere well on the edges? Or does it rise up?

Sorry for the delay. The edges adhere with no issues. I haven't had any lifting at all. It's still perfect.
Full coverage protectors always seem to chop off a bit of the display. Usually noticeable in apps that have objects near the edges. How does this one fare?

I disagree. I have installed many screen protectors and this one does not confirm to the curved edges of the screen. The case is excellent though.
I bought it just today, waiting for it to arrive to me in Italy (about 10 days). From the photos I can see that they are a winning combination!
