Is anyone concerned about the lack of screen protectors and cases for the RAZR 5G? The phone has been out for a month and I've only found 2 cases for purchase in the US. Sprint has ZERO, T-Mobile has 1, and Amazon has the same one as T-Mobile and a carbon fiber case. Since the phone is foldable I'm not too concerned about screen protectors. If manufacturers haven't released a case by now, I fear they aren't coming. Anyone else thinking of returning the phone?
There are quite a few cases out there.
The two you mentioned, plus... CaseMate, and the Chinese sites like Aliexpress and through eBay...
There are like 4 more different types and styles of cases. Plus there is the supposed OEM one from Motorola ($100+)
As for screen and phone protectors, I ordered on Amazon and Aliexpress. I have been able to clear screen the back, front, and screen.
Cheers
Give Spigen time to release a case
I suggest not putting a screen protector. I feel like it will damage the screen due to abrasion when the screen folds/moves.
Screen protector is a bad idea. On any device. I just want a skin for the sticky outside.

Hi, my device is HTC Cingular 8525. I want to get a screen protector film. I do have one now pushed on my phone, but its too cheap as I can see scrathes I made on it after one week use. I want get a new better one that doesn't have such kind of problem. I already look a lot of products. ZAGG's InvisibleShield ones seem good but I don't think buying a film for 15 dollars when my phone only worth 100 dollars is a good idea. Also I found on Ebay some item ask 10$ including shippment, but I don't know whether they are good. Therefore I want to ask: Anyone here has any recommendation? (Website links, keywords, ebay seller name, all welcomed) I want a screen protector totally charges below $10 with a reasonable protection against scrathes (both screen and film itself should be okay with scrathes made by stylus pen in normal use)
Proporta. One word.
Excellent - except for very HighRes devices...as you see the grain there. However, generally, dont expect to get more than 3 to 6 months out of such a thing.
I've always liked ClearTouch Anti-Glare ($13) on my Hermes!
To me... this is the best one....
9$ free shipping

sounds a lot like InvizibleShield http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield I've had one on my touch pro and it survived everything i threw in my pocket. No scratches or marks on my screen. The full body skin was decent, corners started to come away after a few months use and i was about to send in for a replacement as they also have lifetime warranties when i got an upgrade to the touch pro 2
On ebay there are also numerous protectors to be found
try 3m vikuiti screen protectors
someone here said they were good:
http://forum.tabletpcreview.com/showthread.php?t=2759
and its 3M!
I have only Screen Protectors from Brando,a little bit more Expensive,but a lot Better!
I work as a Welder,so for me it´s important to have a Strong Surface because of all the Metal Dirt from my Work
Shield Skins are nice too,but i am from Germany so I couldn´t get the Shield Skins anywhere !

I like using screen protectors on my phone due to the fact it helps protect the LCD screen from dirt/dust and even if you dropped it screen first. Heads up don't get the mirror screen protector, they are hard to keep clean and it leaves your hand prints all over. I see it is that the above-linked screen protector is so cheap that it's worth a shot, and it means you don't have to worry about being too careful where you keep your Phone Touch. I'm definitely glad I have it. Just make sure that you take the time to affix it. Check this website: Uxsight.com
Hello
The "first generation" of screen protectors were made from very thin films based on the concept that an extra layer between the two surfaces (screen and stylus) would provide the needed protection to prolong the life of the device. These screen protectors came (and still come) in packs of 10 to 20 protectors and are hand-cut by the end consumer to fit the specific device. Such screen protectors, while offering extra protection, did not completely fill the need in the marketplace. They peeled up easily and they scratched almost as easily as the screens, causing the protector to be replaced often.
I have seen some good reviews of the ViewGuard Anti-Glare Matte Screen Protector online. What do you guys think?
ebay is the best place
bought 5 for $3.50

cheap screen protect on ebay recommend
I'm looking for an anti glare screen protector similar to the one that Sprint sells(feel wise), but I want it to cover the entire screen, not just part of it like Sprints. I read that the invisishield feels too rubbery and I don't want one that needs to have liquid applied to it to install. Anything?
"SEARCH" this exact sub-forum and you will find what you are looking for. High-end companies like Boxwave sell them all the way down to HandHeldItems. I do not remember the company I ordered from, but I posted about it here.
3-pack for $9.99....and they cover the whole screen and bottom buttons.
Thanks. I'll search your posts.
IMHO, the ones that I ordered are really good. Just comes down to how much you want to spend.
Just don't forget that Anti-Glare screen protectors somewhat "dull" the color of the screen
Turns out you ordered from handhelditems. Just ordered the 3 pack. Now, where can I get a sync cable the cheapest? I need one for the car, work, and home.
look into Steinheil protectors, they're really top quality.
found here, http://www.sgpstore.com/index.php
Boxwave are great. I've been using them on my gadgets for years. Never had a problem and they go on easily.
handhelditems(dot)com sells a 3pack for $8. I am using the clear ones. 30% off with code 30htcoff
Crap I ordered them already and didn't know about the code. Now I know for next time.
Got my anti glares that I ordered from handhelditems and they're perfect! Perfect cut.
Hi,
My White 16 GB galaxy note was delivered on this Tuesday only.
I have done extensive search on internet for screen protector and flip case.
I zeroed in on SPIGEN SGP GLAS t. Premium Tempered Glass Series Screen Protector AND SPIGEN SGP GT-N7000 / AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4G LTE Leather Case Valentinus [Middle Brown], Diary Wallet Type
Both priced on high side.
I am in a dilemma that should I go for flip case and screen protector both or will flip case alone will suffice?
How's the quality of these 2 products of SPIGEN?
Thanks for the info.
You obviously did NOT try searching this topic. If you had searched, you would have found at least two threads with extensive reviews and discussion regarding the GLAS.t.
Try again and this time, use SEARCH!

I have gone through the threads on this forum, but i didn't find a thread which discuss about having screen protector and flip case together.
My point here is should I spent 40 $ extra on screen protector if I am buying flip case?
Thanks
Any ways I ordered from Amazon for both the protector and case to be on safe side.
The case will have credit card and etc and they could cause scratches.
Not that this will matter for the OP but I think you should have a screen protector and a case. The Galaxy Note (and any other phone glass including devices with the somewhat overrated Corning Gorilla Glass) can get scratched by anything harder than the glass. This can include a grain of sand between your finger and the glass.
Get a screen protector. They are anywhere from $30 to less than $1. If the day comes that you scratch your screen, you'll probably wish you could pay $30 to have it new again, so spare yourself even the chance and use a screen protector. Amazon has a 5pk for less than $2 shipped to your door.

I use the Glas.t and SPIGEN flip case - they work beautifully together and i dould highly recommend them
(i did an extensive review of a few SPIGEN products on this forum )
howdy
folk get far too obsessed with screen protectors.. a flip case will annoy you after a week
I had the official flip and changed it to a £3.49 TPU gel case that came with a free screen protector and the phone is in A1 condition after 3 months
but you pays your money you takes your choice
I can't speak for the flip case, but SPIGEN make very high quality stuff. Money well spent!
What is the best/everyones favourite screen protectors? I head that the Nillkin H+ . Is this true? Thanks :good:
Not sure if there is a best, it's just tempered glass. The major differences would be minor features like thickness, cutout accuracy, and edge rounding.
I have tried many different glass screen protectors, from iVolver to Nilkin. I am back with Nilkin now cause I think it is the best. Especially Im very OCD with fingerprint smudges, and Nilkin does wonderful with the anti-oleophobic coating so, I am very satisfied.
There is no the best, just has the fit. i had just bought a cheap OPT glass screen from here, and cost 2.99, free shipping, and i use well.
I have ordered /cool mango/ tempered glass from Amazon
Pretty cheap just 299rs including delivery, lets see how it goes ..
Similar questions like these are being asked all the time.. And honestly they are all more or less the same. Regardless of what brand you buy and the source, they all claim to do the exact same thing, and after using several glass protectors for different devices, I can safely say this is true. What you'll want main is the thickness, try go get the thinnest possible ones. However do take note that quite often those glass that claim to be 0.2mm is in reality 0.26mm, with some being as thick as 0.3mm. You may not feel that much of a difference by the time you slap the glass on your screen though. So the next important thing to look out for is the quality of the oleophobic coating, which you will only find out how good it is by the time you use it.
My suggestion is just buy any low priced tempered glass off Aliexpress or something. They only cost a dollar or two and usually ship for free, so just go ahead and grab 2 or 3 pieces. If you want to play it safe you may buy different types from different sellers so you can try out different brands and see which one you prefer.
Same boat with cr0wnest.
I bought probably 3 screen protectors from different manufacturers ( and different prices) for Oneplus 1. And all of them either got broke/ chipped ( served there purpose of course, that is protect the screen of the phone).
Now, I just bought 2 pieces of cheaper screen protectors for my Oneplus Two just in case they get damaged.
I got two from Aliexpress which costed $1.28 , fits perfectly and happy so far. I don't think you should pay "genuine" glasses that much money. They are almost identical and do the same jobs.
They are not all the same. I've experienced uneven adhesive coating at the edges of the cheaper ones. It happened once on my LG G3 and now on the OPT. As far as Nilkin is concerned, they are the most consistent in product quality, which is why I used them if I can (I bought the cheaper one as a temporary measure until I could get the Nilkin shipped to me).
Oh, one more thing. I had polarisation issues with cheaper tempered glass protectors but not with Nilkin. This happened when I use the phone for navigation in the car, with polarised sunglasses.

Sorry to hear that perhaps you got unlucky. I've tried tons and tons of tempered glass for different devices and they are all almost identical in overall quality. Never had any issues with adhesive as far as I'm concerned, unless the protective film protecting the adhesive was damaged. You are far more likely to get a glass damaged during shipment rather than getting one that is of poor quality.
Casebase Premium Tempered Glass...
...is the best!
Anyway to remove the air bubble inside the glass other than taking it off....
The Toughest Tempered Screen Protector for OnePlus 2 Tested ! Casebase Review - Tortured !
Orzly is in my eyes the best one. It has rounded edges and the fit is perfect. I tried Nillkin but it cracked the first day in the thin area around the home button.
original oneplus protector is pretty good, but evolutive labs makes one thats quite strong. but quite expensive ($25)
The OnePlus Tempered glass is very bad its get scratches.
So far if you install it properly, Nillkin is the best. Mocolo/glass4m and Ultimate Shield is good too
I'm currently using the official tempered glass on my OnePlus Two (my daily driver), and a brandless third-party one for my OnePlus One and I must say that my experience with the official protector has been better.
I dropped my OPT from shoulder height and it landed facedown on a marble floor and it miraculously survived (no visible scratches). So based on my experience it's pretty durable.
I know it probably is accidental but the protector on my OnePlus One is starting to loosen up near the capacity buttons, and I have not even used it that much.
I'm not saying it's first-party > third-party because there are a lot of good third party protectors out there (e.g. Nillkin), but in my case the official one has been treating me better.
Howdy, guys.
Just ordered a NIB 10 which should be here by Friday. Looking for some help on the following:
1) Case with a HOLSTER. I've owned Seidio and Otterbox before, but it seems as HTC slips in popularity behind iPhone, Samsung and others, we're not getting the 'love' we used to. Looking for something fairly thin - I'm not in construction and don't need anything 'bulletproof' - but I'll take what I can get.
2) Screen protector. Been reading a lot about the glass protectors and how they don't work too well on the curved edges on the 10. Wondering if there was any final consensus on what works best. Should I go with a film protector like the 3M Vikuiti?
Thanks in advance!
Supcase on Amazon is what I have to avoid damage from my little kids. Comes with holster and built-in screen protector.
A film protector would look better but I've settled with the built-in one until I find time to switch it. YouTube videos show how easy it is to remove.

For case the Ringke Onyx

As for screen protector, I say the Zagg HDX. Sadly, this one is not sell by Zagg online, you'll have to go to one of Zagg retailers. You could check is one is near you via Zagg online page. A lot of their retailer have this printer like machine, that cuts the film used to the phone specs.

I will politely direct your attention to item #1 in my post where I asked for a case with a HOLSTER.
I use this holster (https://www.amazon.com/HTC-10-Kicks...id=1495180539&sr=1-10&keywords=htc+10+holster) and this case (https://www.incipio.com/cases/smart...phone-cases/htc-10-cases/ngp-htc-10-case.html).
When I use the Incipio phone case, the phone isn't as snug in the holster as when I use the original case that came with the holster, but the phone definitely does not fall when I have my holster in a vertical (or even at a 45 degree) position. The holster I got was not from that amazon seller, but it's the exact same generic holster that comes with most of the htc 10 case+holster combo. Notice that in this combo the case has 2 layers. There are other types of holster+combo case in which the case is only single layer and those holsters might be different.

I bought this one:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01F67D0YE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
But I think you're right - the holsters designed to accommodate the dual-layer cases that have a silicone inner and hard plastic outer can probably be used for something like the Incipio or Seidio cases. I guess I'll live with it a while this way, and see how it goes.
Is there a cheap ebay glass screen protector that covers the whole screen? The one I bought is millimeters away from the end of the viewing screen
