Dear all,
Does the POCO F3 come with an in-built screen protector?
I noticed a plastic like cover over the screen is this a screen protector or is it the screen?
I havent applied any screen protector before to my newly received POCO F3
It comes with a factory pre-installed screen protector (film)
Is it possible to remove it before putting screen protector?
I seem to have some scratches on it

I still have the screen protector which came applied on the phone. Anyone knows what kind it is? I guess it is not tempered glass..
no it's not tempered glass
It is normal clear screen screen guard. Not tempered glass.
you should not remove that btw. in my experience, i regret taking that off knowing there are no good tg alternatives nor non tg protectors.
it's hard to find a perfect screen protector，so dont remove it
Hey guys how many of you have left the pre installed screen protector on? And does the actual screen hold up to scratches ok and does the naked screen get fingerprints as bad as the screen protector does?

The pre-installed "screen protector" is a very thin piece of plastic similar to the ones you peel off new phones. I put my phone in my pocket with a few keys for a few hours and I was shocked to see TEARS (not scratches) all over the screen. So I immediately removed it to realize it's just thin plastic. I also noticed colors/brightness looked better without it as plastic is not as clear as glass and it affects screen visuals.
The actual screen has Gorilla Glass 3 it should resist scratches but a real screen protector is highly recommended.

Yes mate display looks even more impressive after you remove it glad it helped
The gorilla glass is really soft on this one, so it does scratch a lot (at least in my case). So now I got a tempered glass to mask the scratches and prevent new one from happening.
I just peeled off pre applied from my A70 , I use flip cover

My UK model, bought from the official Samsung online store, didn't come with a factory installed screen protector.
I'm running the latest May update but still find the fingerprint sensor only works 30% of the time despite registering the same thumb 3 times over.
I have a tempered glass protector on, but the sensor was just as poor without it. I find I use face unlock more than anything.
I can live with it, but it's quite a disappointing experience!

Was there any hard to remove left over adhesive?
No

Will the screen protector for the A80 fit the 70?
I like the no notch look of the one for the A80.
As titled.
Does the note 10 + come with a preinstalled screen protector?
I believe the s10 came with them.
I was told it does just like the s10. No case though(only international)
Yes, saw on YouTube video. It comes with preinstalled screen protector. In indian units transparent back cover is also included.
Thats what i heard but some unboxing didnt say anything.
Just looking for something for day one.
I ordered a case with built in protector. Just dont know if the screen protector will work with the fingerprint

How could we know for sure?
people who have used s10 or s10+ any idea how is the quality of factory installed screen protector? those who have installed new screen protector did you install on top of factory installed screen protector or you removed the factory installed screen protector and then apply the new one?

I have a S10+ that came with one and while the fitment was perfect it wasn't much thicker (if any) than the plastic that you peel off the back. I don't use screen protectors so as soon as the cutout for the front facing cameras started bugging me when I would pull the notification shade down I took it off (maybe two days of owning the phone).
Generally when applying a new screen protector you would take any existing ones off first.
It does.

I had no issues with mine. Got S10+ on release day and used it up until a month ago and replaced it with ringke dual easy film. Was not a bad screen protector at all I'll probably rock the factory one in note again for awhile until it's worn out
Good to know.
I always order a skinomi as i always do. Just unsure if it will come before the phone.
There shipping can be a tad slow
It is difficult to find screen protector with curve glass. I had changed so many tempered glass for my s8+.
Another issue is the fingerprint sensor. Is there any screen protector that doesn't block the fingerprint sensor?

That would get annoying as hell real quick. Every time you moved your finger over the cutout.

I have found the screen protector on the S10 plus I have is great. Still looks the same as it did out of the box.
I didn't use a screen protector on my S9 plus and I had no issues with scratches or anything. Only reason I left this one on I figured if it bubbled or came off I would just remove it and go with nothing.

Anyone interested to see the quality of the screen protector on the Note 10+ at the 6:40 mark he takes the screen protector off and you can see how cheap it is.
Yes, it does come with a screen protector installed.
However, the pre-installed protector is nowhere as good as the ones available online. it is prone to get scratches easily. So, I recommend you get one to protect your phone.

Yes but then the fingerprint sensor goes very bad.
When I 1st got my mate 20x I noticed it came with a flimsy plastic screen protector that you can peel off. But I also noticed another protector underneath. It looks glass. I want to remove it. Is this another screen protector also?

The first film is similar to what's on the back of the phone, it's merely a shipping protection film. The one underneath is a factory applied plastic screen saver. Most people chose to keep the factory applied one on until it scuffs up, some remove it as they prefer the feel of glass.

Hello,
i ordered bmy ZF3 a few days ago.
Which screen protector do you recommend?
i am looking for a tempered glass for the front facing display.
Screen protectors are usually crap (or all rate the same in terms of breaking(gorilla glass / tampered is usually a better option but if you really want to keep our screen and phone safe use a very thick padded generic folding cover it'll feel like youre carrying a brick in your pockect but your phone will be safe with 2 floors of fall damage (the indian shops in South Africa) usually have them but making a custom one is best it
**mustn't be too thick to put too much pressure on the screen when cover is closed**
I am currently using the whitestone dome tempered glass on the front. Works well. But seems to attract fingerprints.
I can second Whitestone dome ez protector on front. Finger prints doesn't seem to be a problem for me though
Assume U take off the existing front protector first correct?

Correct, took mine off to I still whitestones silk protector today
seancannery88 said:
To be honest in my perception for foldable devices the temper glasses are worst choice, since they are not flexible as screen protectors so there might be a chance of damaging your display. Its preferable to choose screen protector which is a thin film and works well for foldable

I believe he is just talking about using tempered glass on the front/outer screen. I don't see why that would be an issue. My tempered glass screen protectors for the front screen are arriving today and I can't wait to get the stock one off.
seancannery88 said:
Using temper glass for Foldable devices is a bit risky I feel, there might be a chance of damaging the display while folding with tempers on. So I prefer screen protectors which are thin, flexible and its safer comparing to screen protectors. Also I've been using my S20 Fe with gadgetshieldz screen protectors on it for months and it works well.

Again, as was just stated in reply to your last comment, he's talking about using tempered glass for the OUTSIDE screen, NOT the folding one. There is no tempered glass screen protector for the folding display.

But it's not a tempered glass screen protector.
AGAIN, mobile freak said he wanted a tempered glass screen protector for the FRONT FACING SCREEN. Not the inner folding screen.
Seancannery88 just keeps replying that he doesn't recommend a tempered glass screen protector for the folding display.
And tempered glass screen protectors do NOT exist for the folding display. One with ultra thin glass (not tempered glass) does.
