Screen protectors for the outside screen? - Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Accessories

I think I've only seen one of them on Amazon so far (this one). It looks like it might be fine - but I'm not sure $36 is where I want to be. I'm hoping we'll see some more options pop up soon.
Anyone seen anything else yet?
I'm really thinking I want something on there considering that the Flex Mode will basically be resting on the screen side whenever you use it (or you'd get a wobble on the cameras).

Whitestone just came out with one on their website.

Thanks, just purchased with the discount code Newproduct20. It was $36. I love it on my Note 10, so I'll give it a try.

So I’m assuming the stock screen protector has to be removed for the Whitestone?

The outside screen protector is no problem. It's the inner one they caution against removing.

I chickened out. I cancelled the Whitestone one. I will leave it as is for a while. The Whitestone install video looks pretty complicated. I will see other reviews first. Feel like if I take off the pre installed one I might be sorry.

That video is pretty intense.

I see Verizon has a screen protector. I hope a better quality one becomes available.

If it has a factory installed protector on it, leave it on until it wears out. They provide better protection than you might first think.
Ha-ha I "tested" the one on my 10+ the 2and day I had it and faceplanted it on a rough piece of 1/16th inch aluminum angled upwards.
Marred the protector but no damage to the screen... it hit on the curved glass area, hard.
Sand will scratch these screens.
I would lean towards a wet apply urethane screen protector as they are durable, remain clear, fairly easy to apply, bubble free, self healing and are inexpensive.
Been having a good run with Gorilla IQ Sheild on my 10+. Bought 4 three months ago and still on the first one. Shows some wear on the keypad area but no scratches and I'm not babying it. Similar in feel to the factory installed protector.

Do you know if this is necessary on the fold 2? The only reason I buy whitestone tempered glass for my samsung phones is because the screen is curved and whitestone makes the best glass for curved screens. If the z Fold 2 doesn't have a curved front screen, then I think most tempered glass screen protectors should work.
So I guess my main question is, does the z fold 2 have a curve to the front screen?

The screen protector is for the outer screen, you dont need a protector for inside screen. Whitestone is a good company, sadly the code did not work for me. Did anyone get lucky yet?

Sorry just saw your question. Yes the z Fold 2 has one side of the front screen slightly curved. The side that opens to be specific.

Whitestone code no longer works. As soon as people started using it they yanked it.

Anyone using the Whitestone protector? They're sold out.

Because of the edges of the glass. I can feel the edges when playing games

Just received the Whitestone screen protector and installed it. It lined up perfectly with the hole punch camera, but doesn't quite cover the entire front glass. Had no adhesive dribble out on to my phone. But, did have to move the holder around to get the adhesive to fully disperse. I'm now just hoping that the first case I put on (when one of the five I ordered arrives), doesn't break the screen protector.

OnePlus X - Tempered Glass Screenprotector

I ordered the original temepered glass screenprotector with my OnePlus X and I'm really disappointed about it. I want to know if anyone else has the same issue.
There's still air all around the edges. Really regret peeling of the plastic protector that comes pre-installed .
Wanted to order a Orzly one but they pulled it out of the website( maybe the same problems??)
Noticed this on the Nillkin site: "Because the phone has posted under arc, film after about a slight white border, is normally" .....
Is there or will there be a better one, or has anyone good experience with this type of protectors on curved screens?
Here's a picture of the original protector installed
did you buy it from OP store?

It does look like that indeed. But it is perfectly aligned with the speaker and screen. Its not my first screen protector that i apply.. So I think it's not my fault..
I contacted Orzly today to ask if they are planning to release the Tempered Glass Protector for the OPX, as they where available a week ago as pre-order but not on the site anymore.
This was the answer I got:
"Unfortunately we are not planning to realised Tempered Glass Screen protector for the One Plus X. one plus x screen is too curved and we are not pleased with the fitting of the glass screen."
Seems like they have the same problem...
Is your glass 2.5D too (not talking about the screen of course )

You better use film rather than tgsp with such curved screen.
My father has the same problem with Note4 - edges of tempered glass is not round but straight, and screen is slightly round on the edges. I also planed to buy glass protector for my OPX but now i see that is not so good idea. I better wait for some hard case and i will live that original screen protector and i wish you well, maybe there will be curved tempered glass for our phones... who knows...
I ordered a similar one off Ebay. The same happened to me. I'm pretty good at applying screen protectors. There is air all around the edges. I bought a similar one for my wifes S5 and that went on perfect you can't even tell it's on. I'm sticking with it as the glass ones have saved my skin on other phones more than once.

For the looks maybe but a tgsp protects the screen much more!
I also ordered the NILLKIN, because I wasnt happy with the original one. I ordered the H + with rounded edges.
It was delivered today and was going to hesitate to go try this, eventually just went ahead and tried under the guise, "it can not be worse!"
I came to the conclusion that it was exactly the same size so probably had the same problem as the original.
And that was true, unfortunately, ...
So NILLKIN has the same problem as the original of OnePlus!
But!...
In contrast to the original is the NILLKIN H + rounded off at the edges so that feels better. Something also bothered me!
Conclusion, this is one better than the original! (Imho)
Someone on OP forums speaked about Sundatom Tempered Glass 9H 0.2mm 2.5D arc edge
One more to test....
2.5D means that only the edges of glass are rounded I don't think this cover whole screen (I hope I'm wrong)

Screen Protectors Hunt Again

Hi guys so the screen protector hunt starts again ive been looking on amazon uk and some of them seem to be a full adhesive fit does anyone know if the xz2 has flat glass near the main display or is it 2.5D like most models
hear is one ive been looking at https://www.amazon.co.uk/Protector-...6&sr=8-7&keywords=xperia+xz2+screen+protector
On the same hunt, the glass is definitely 2.5D. I wouldn't expect any full adhesive glass protectors to work without massive halo's.

1 hour ago i've seen the brotect airglass, how are this screen protector?
Edit: finally today it's arrived brotect airglass, first time i've buyed and it's arrived a back screen protector for s9+ in xz2 package (???), contact the support and they send me a new for free and it's arrived today...no halo, great brightness and very good oleophobic treatment
i think they all seems to be lying on us... they advertise it as a 3D or full cover edge to edge but when you get your hands on it you realize it only protects the LCD, like flat protector...
well, i like this by IMAK... it's a 3D and full edge to edge film rather than tempered glass... what i don't like about it is not glossy, but rather anti-glare which i hate.
check the link below if anyone is interested in buying it

It prevents glass breaking by 30%.
Or was it 70%?
But it definitely strengths the glass structure.

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

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.
Iamnegan said:
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.

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.

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

Question Query on screen protectors

There were replacement screen protectors for the main screen of the Z Fold2. I noticed Whitestone and other companies are advertising screen protectors for the Fold3. I assume these would be applied on the main screen directly as the Fold3 does not have a Samsung installed protector?
Also any recommendations for the front screen?
I believe the internal has a preinstalled screen protector. Same as the fold 2.
I was unable to get information if the exterior one has a screen protector or not.
I would think so since it seems normal for samsung now.

Idk I tried out the phone in store, and this iteration of the fold felt more like glass and less like plastic and I didn't see a noticeable screen protector like the Fold 2.
Thinking about getting Ferilinso Designed for Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 5G Flexible TPU Screen Protector. Just a precaution, rather safe than sorry.

I had screen protectors that feel "like glass" vs cheap plastic before.

They changed the screen protector to PET, this is one of the best and most overlooked features.

Best buy had one but it was off and I couldn't power it on, Verizon had one on and working, so I got to actually play with it. I'm telling you, the improvements they did to the folding screen are amazing imo. That's always been my thing that keep me from getting the fold, but as soon as I felt how much better it was on the 3, I went ahead and pre-ordered.

MrMobiles review advised they have used a new type of screen protector this year that ends underneath the bezels of the screen, so its more 'built in' than ever. It's also not made from TPU, so you wont get those nasty finger smudge marks as much.

Maybe they were tired of repair screens of people who ripped the protector off and somehow damaged the screen, lol. I changed screen protectors on my z Fold 2 weekly trying to find the right one and the screen was always perfect.
Also the PET screen protectors definitely don't smudge as much and they're easier to wipe off. I hope they're scratch resistant if they're making it harder to remove. I'm ocd about hairline scratches in my screen protectors. Drives me insane.
Hi, I have removed the screen protector on my fold2 and I'm using it for months without any protectors - I could not stand the plastic feelings - the glass touch is perfect on the fold2 and it does not scratch that much. I'm curious - as the fold 3 has now non removable PET layer - how it would be compared to the fold2 without any protectod vs the fold 3 ?
Watching some videos from Korea, and it seems Whitestone Dome has a UTG screen protector for the inner folding screen.

Watching some videos from Korea, and it seems Whitestone Dome has a UTG screen protector for the inner folding screen.

I think that thing is like $80.
My whitestone silk is arriving tomorrow, still waiting on my phone to ship out next week
I hope that this PET protector wil be still possible to remove to have nice glass experience.
On my fold 3 I can feel a edge from screen protector so it seems to be removable, it isn't embedded under the plastic frame.
You already have fold 3? Can you please tell me how is the feeling / touch on the built in PET protector? Is it glass like touch/look?

Yes that is correct I got mine on 18th August after ordering it on 11th August. I can say surface is smooth and feels good. Hardly any visible finger prints when device is on. Like it is with those plastic ones that makes it visible.

Question Front Screen Protector

I would assume i take off the pre installed screen protector first
Thanks
Yes of course you would take off the screen protector. Haven't tried the spigen, but those whitestone are good for $10

Do you think it will fit with the spigen case with no issues?

Mine fits samsung silicone just fine. Just line it up with your camera cut out. I'd imagine it would fit
I ordered the whitestone dome TG to use with the ringke slim and it looks like its either going to be a very tight fit or it wont fit. I dont want to attempt to fit it as il be returning it to amazon
Anyone find a good glass screen protector for the front?
The whitestone ones are not that great. Im going to try with a Hydrogel version
I have been using hydrogel and it's great. I even scratched the screen protector with a tool at work. I thought I had to replace it but a day later it's as good as new. I am very surprised at the self healing.

can you link the one you are using. Thanks
I think all the hydrogel are the same.
I got it from Aliexpress as it was not available anywhere else at a that time.
This is the specific one I got

Got a long scratch on the front screen protector. Drove me insane. Just ordered some hydrogel ones.
Anyone have the Samsung carbon case with this screen protector?

I am using the Spigen Glas with the Spigen Slim Fit P case and it is sized to fit nicely inside the front raised edges. I really like it for use with Spigen cases. Not sure how it will look with other cases with thinner edged front protectors.
My front and main screen protectors started developing small scratches. I'm too OCD to let that slide so I removed both of them. Much happier now, lol.

Do you feel a difference in the inner screen now?
Anyone going with no screen protector on the front? I had 2 of the ones in the first post in this thread but messed them both when I tried to install them. Was thinking about just going without one and was wondering if anyone else was as well?
I'm thinking about going without one too.

So I'm guessing the Victus Gorilla Glass on this phone is holding up well for you as far as scratches go?
