Has anyone found a matte screen protector of a decent quality? I'd love to get my hands on one.
Clarivue has a nice one.

Ill never use any other screen protector. SGP is the best http://www.sgpstore.com/sgp-samsung...dy-protector-steinheil-incredible-series.html if youre looking for the matte finish use the little pull down bar on the page and choose "anti fingerprint"
A friend has an SGP Anti-Fingerprint one for the iphone4 and trust me, it does the job as promised.
Too bad, I cannot get that in India for my captivate
I just ordered the SGP. I couldn't find a captivate version of the clarivue. Thanks for the advice, should be here tomorrow.
I keep reading reviews (alot of them 4/5 star btw) saying the sgp anti finger print makes the screen very slightly blurry. Does anyone have pictures of this protector on the phone?

No pictures, but screen clarity and quality really suffers. Especially considering our SAMOLED screens are so beautiful to begin with, putting on a screen-protector such as this makes a lot less sense.
However, saying that, it really does it's job. If you are really irritated by fingerprints and face smudge, a matte screen protector will do the job.
After a while you won't notice the difference but if you have friends/family that has a phone with a naked SAMOLED screen for comparison, you may cringe a bit. I've contemplated taking mine off after seeing my friend's naked Captivate. Gosh, it looks so good.
Matte screen protector sample images
I have used many types of screen protectors, but majority of the ones I used were matte type. I took a few photos of my Captivate with a matte screen protector for you to evaluate yourself. and here's my little review of it~
SCREEN OFF
With the screen off you can definitely tell that this phone has a screen protector. In the photo there was light coming from my computer monitor, yet, the matte protector is able to eliminate any glare. Also, the matte protector is extremely smooth, reason why most people would get one. The feel when using this phone is exactly the same as sliding your finger across a matte lcd monitor, perhaps even smoother. With the matte texture, it is very good at resisting fingerprints, although fingerprints do start to show once fingers become moist (sweat) but can be easily removed compared to none matte/no protector screens.
COLOUR SAMPLE
When colour is displayed on the phone with the matte protector, the colours displayed are still very vibrant. However, the screen itself seems like it is not as bright. You can also tell that the screen becomes slightly grainy. This is only noticeable if you have the phone very close to you... but looking at the phone a foot or more away from your face the graininess is hard to distinguish. With the max brightness on all the way, the graininess is there, however, again looking at a fair distance you won't notice it.
WHITE SAMPLE
When white is displayed on the phone with the matte protector, this is where the matte screen protector does not do as good. The graininess really shows and it looks as if there is slight colour showing (probably from the texture of the protector). It takes some time to get used to, and I suggest keeping the screen brightness down (like browsing the internet or looking at something with a white background) and keeping the phone at a fair distance when using it so that the graininess is not as apparent.
Final thoughts - In my opinion, the matte type screen protector is very good to use on your phone. The feel when using it is by far better than any other type of screen protector, perhaps better than the bare glass itself. The colours still stay rich and the screen protector proves to be very good against any glare or fingerprints. The only downside is the slight graininess, especially on white backgrounds, it takes some time to get used to, but to some people, it should not be a problem at all. In the end, it's all about preference and it really depends on what you are looking for in a protector.
Please don't ask me what brand my matte screen protector is, as people have their own opinion about which brand is good. I have tried many brands, brand names/generic and their qualities are not that different, aside from the way they manufacture it... just look for the one that is most affordable
I got one from Epikcase. Costs less than 5 bucks here.
No peeling or anything after a few months of use.

Yeah, there are definitely trade offs. For me, it's worth it completely. For others, it may not be.

YES, it's so sexy without the AT&T at the top. Only SAMSUNG which is pretty awesome. zomg ROGERS CANADA FTW!
I can't believe anyone puts a screen protector on this phone. I understand why, but it's so awesome without one

I have been using a Zagg screen protector purchased at best buy. At $20 it is quite expensive but does carry a lifetime warranty. I work as a mechanic so I am hard on screens, the box doesn't lie when it says this thing is indestructible. Six months and still looks brand new. It does take some getting used to the feel of it using swype but I will never use anything else.

IMHO, you don't need a screen protector. Check this post post
Unfortunately matte screens do a horrible job displaying anything.
Only matte finish screen protectors I've seen are the ones at radio shack. They aren't made for the captivate, they are the cut to fit ones. Other than that the only other ones I've seen are for ipod touchs and iphones.
$0.68

Store based out of CA. Everything is dirt cheap, quality matches name brand products. Can't beat it!
I just installed Belkin Matte screen overlay on both of my Xoom's. I paid $25 for a two pack at Target. I am extremely impressed with the product. Eliminated smudges with only a moderate loss in light transmission. I installed using the water spray method. To keep from water damage. I wrapped the periphery of each Xoom with paper towels. I sprayed the sticky side of the overlay with water and carefully layed it down over the screen. Using a credit card wrapped in a few layers of paper towels I started from the center and worked my way out to the sides.

any actual pics?
Same here.. I got the Motorola BT keyboard on clearance for $48, and got the Belkin matte screen 2 pack also
I'm liking it a lot so far, was VERY easy to put on and looks great. It still smudges a little but not nearly as much.
i would also love to see pics... especially how the screen is looking with matte screen protector. the ones i used were terrible.

I tried taking some pics, but you really couldn't see anything.
I've used these type of protectors before. The first coouple days, you feel good about protecting your device, but the lackluster feel and reduced screen look will make you claw it off soon. I have been using my X and XOOM for a long time with no screen protectors with no probem. Motorola has a great build quality with the Corning Gorilla Glass, and it is rather resillient.
P.S. I do keep my xoom in the folio case, and am well pleased with the protection.
I'm glad I saw this thread. I got these for Christmas and kind of f'ed up on the first one, but the second one seemed like it was actually too big slightly, so I exchanged them at Target today and tried the water spray method which worked like a charm. There does seem to be a little moisture in some areas but it has been slowly going away since I reinstalled the new covers a couple hours ago. I personally think the screen looks much better with a matte cover on it (and most screens in general look better with matte covers). On all white backgrounds you can kind of see a prism effect, but I think the contrast is actually better, and pls there are no more fingerprints or any glare. It makes for much better viewing in bright areas too, gonna try it outside soon - without a cover you can't even see the screen unless you're in the shade when outdoors. I think this is the way that LCD displays were meant to be seen, LCD TVs always have a matte screen, and laptop LCDs with a matte finish are always more expensive than glossy. Anyway...I love it.
They finally arrived!
Good luck on putting them on
I did 5 tries and it still a tiny bit off in one corner, i'll try again when i have some more patience in a free day
The cut is too perfect, there's no room for errors when putting them on.
Any tiny mm off and you end up with a bit of bubble at the sides.
The screen protector works, some of you call it the matte screen protector, yes it does give it a matte look.
Quick frankly the phone looks more sleek & elegant, more high class with this type of screen protector on it'll combine well with the D3O matte cases.
Some people says this type of screen protector ruins the screen colour or give them headaches due the rainbowy effect, here's a close up
IMO, i think it's working quite nice, it doesn't affect my vision, however it does makes the SAMOLED+ a little bit less crispy fresh, because it does removes the glare.
This screen protector might not be the perfect thing around, but it sure does what it advertises to do, it prevents glare and prevents finger prints.
My face is always oily, and the naked screen or those other Crystal Clear type screen protectors just causes too much problem for me, as i have to keep wiping the grease off the phone every 5 minutes of use.
But with this screen protector on i can carry on without any interruption and it makes the phone much more enjoyable, productive and fun.
Definitely recommended for other people like me with greasy hair and oily hands

tell me how this goes. ironically i started a thread like 4 hours ago on the same subject.i think a slick glossy case with a matte screen protector makes a phone look beautiful.
Those are simply matte screen protectors and though finger prints are less visible, the matte coating creates horrible pixelation of the screen. I switched back to the normal clear protectors because of it.
Though I must say the matte look gives the phone a sleek look. I can replace my clear protector with another matte one if people want to see the pixelation effect. I still have a few left over.

I bought a matte screen protector from cellularfactory and the rainbow effect is quite bad even though i haven't taken it off yet.
i've been thinking if all matte screen are made the same. there are some quite expensive matte protector that i havent pulled the trigger with. maybe i will buy the one you reviewed and see if it has less rainbow effect.

check out the close up picture i took
it shows some of it, in the white area and teal colour area

I just ordered some from Clarivue. I've used the anti-glare/fingerprint ones before, and they never gave me the rainbow effect. I'll give some feedback after some use.

Since there is only a thread for the Nillkin cases and tempered glass I thought it would be nice to have some thread for the accessories in general.
Until this day I tried 3 cases, two screen protectors (films) and two tempered glass protectors.
Case No. 1 ) Slim, silicone case http://www.ebay.com/itm/Transparent-Clear-Silicone-Slim-Gel-Case-For-Huawei-Honor-9/112446352466?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 - Very slim and light case made from nice silicone BUT the protection when dropped would be none. It's not made 100% precisely and since it's silicone it doesn't look any good on the back where it creates bubbles. I've ordered this as the first case to have at least some protection. Nice thing is they include free screen protector but the quality isn't very good - doesn't cover the whole display (I'm not talking about edge-to-edge) and there are 2mm gaps on each side and when the display is on it looks terrible. 2/5
Case No. 2) Nillkin Super Frosted http://www.ebay.com/itm/For-HUAWEI-Honor-9-NILLKIN-Super-Frosted-Shield-Hard-Plastic-Back-Covers-Cases-/152596952252?var=&hash=item23877cb4bc:m:mtNLCAV-KRHaAK2TUOYLPTg - very nice case, really sturdy BUT I have few complaints - it's kinda slippery on the sides but this will go away after some use maybe and the bottom side around jack, charging port and speaker is a bit sharp and if you're holding the phone with the little finger on the bottom it't not really comfortable. Besides that it's really nice case for the price but I expected a bit more. But once again for the price it's more than OK. 4/5
Case No. 3) TPU Shockproof case with "carbon" http://www.ebay.com/itm/Luxury-Carbon-Fiber-Slim-Shockproof-Soft-TPU-Back-Case-For-Huawei-Honor-9-Magic/112325496837?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=412748326145&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 - as you can imagine, there is absolutely no carbon at all, just some kind of "sticker" or what it is. Nevermind, this case is the best of the three. Really nice case made from TPU, sturdy, should have the best drop protection and fits just perfectly. There is a small "rim" around the screen that should protect the screen from scratches when the phone is "face down". 5/5
Screen protector (film) No. 1) Nillkin Super Clear Protective Film - in terms of size the best screen protector I've had. Obviously it's not edge-to-edge but it does cover the whole display with gaps on the edges BUT the display is fully protected so thumbs up for me. In terms of "anti-fingerprint" it's nowhere close to the display or the back but is much better than some noname protector I've got with TPU case. Overall very nice screen protector for free but I'm still waiting for the Nillkin H+ tempered glass and some noname edge-to-edge tempered glass. 4/5
Tempered glass No. 1) Edge-to-edge blue 2.5D tempered glass http://www.ebay.com/itm/9H-2-5D-Full-Cover-Real-Tempered-Glass-Screen-Protective-Film-For-Huawei-honor-9/152593109357?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=452016649496&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 - really nice tempered glass (2 pcs) for the price. It has the adhesive only on the top, bottom and the sides but the application was very easy and the glass holds on even with any of tested cases. It has some "dots" in the screen area so I got no rainbow effect whatsoever. The blue color is a bit different from the original color od the phone but it's not a problem since you have your phone in a case. Overall for the price pretty good. 4/5
Tempered glass No. 2) Normal tempered glass Caliber (bought in CZE) - not edge-to-edge, doesn't cover the whole screen, gaps on the sides. Overall sh*t. 1/5
Still waiting for the Nillkin H+ tempered glass.
Nilkin Amazing H+ Pro is No Go
Got the 0.2mm H+ Pro. It's cover the display area for like 99%, with-out just about 0.5mm on each side, after all still the best.
BUT. The silicon layer doesn't hold the tempered glass on both sides, looks like the phone display curve started a bit earlier than its needed for the protector.
It doesn't stick to the display, making it looks like ****, with 3mm frame from each side. Top/bottom sides stick OK, all the way to edges.
So Nilkin Amazing H+ Pro is No Go for me.
Well, got it yesterday so I'm still waiting to try it but not sure if wan't to :laugh:
cases
sooooo, I bought these from tvc mall. They were so cheap that I bought three different ones with the intent of disposing of whichever were poor. Thing is, they are all good in their own way. The plain bumper is just very slimline. The rugged looking one is cool as it has a stand in landscape mode, and the wallet is exceptional quality, given the price. All three fit perfectly, but the plain bumper makes the power and volume buttons so much more tactile. The rugged one looks really cheap in silver, perhaps black would have been a good choice. As i wasn't expecting much from the wallet one, I also oredered the nilkin wallet but that hasn't arrived yet.

I have also ordered the ultimate sheild screen protector, which is edge to edge, in black as I think it will make an excellent contrast to the silver rear of the handset....which wont be visible when the (absolutely necessary) bumper is fitted!
Ultimate sheild screen protector
.... And the ultimate sheild protector turned up. It is excellent. A word of caution, unless this is fitted absolutely perfectly, it will render one or both of the capacitance keys inoperable. This happened to me as i fitted the sheild a fraction of a millimetre to the right. I carefully removed and replaced it with more accuracy.
Here is a pic of the black sheild fitted to my silver H9, and a photo of the plain bumper fitted from my previous post. Svelt but rugged!
After a couple of hours of use I can say that there has been no loss of sensitivity on the screen or capacitive buttons, but on darker details and the blacks, it does look like the screen is behind a sheet of glass. You will know what i mean if you have used a screen protector which bonds over its entirety, whereas this one has a mild adhesive at the top and bottom of the protector, where the bezels are. A small price to pay i think to protect my new device. It is mostly noticeable in bright light, not so much in low light. And I love the new black look of the bezels with the silver fingerprint sensor still visible.
Right, so, some more hours on....the ultimate sheild has begun to show its flaws. Towards the middle of the screen there is now what i can only describe as a "woodgrain" effect. This could be caused by tiny amounts of moisture getting between the screen and protector, which I guess there is nothing to stop that happening. They offered a refund for dissatisfaction so I guess I will be chasing that up. Pfffft. So disappointed.....
Is there a smart cover for it ?!
Just bought the TPU Shockproof case and it is amazing! It's a very good quality and it doesn't makes the phone feel like a toy.
I really like it and definitely recommend it!

Can you upload a photo of the phone with the case applied?! That would be awesome
The nilkin "sparkle series" wallet turned up. Its awful. Unlike the cheap wallet I purchased, which remains closed under magnetism, the nilkin just falls open and feels poorer quality.
The Ipaky bumper with the clear perspex back is, however, very nice. The only caveat, it sits flush with the screen so offers no protection if you decide to place your device screen down.
I'm waiting for the smart cover case, if it didn't come fast, I'll go with a skin.
I have bought an honor 9 few days ago. Somebody could suggest me a screen protector that cover whole display? With 3D display is so difficult find a good screen protector....

Good luck with that. Did you read my earlier post? As the protector does not actually sit on the screen, due to the adhesive around the edges, it is susceptible to the "rainbow effect" which i think is caused by humidity between screen and protector. It seemed to manifest itself after the phone had been in my pocket and warmed up. I don't have an overly sweaty crotch.....
Anyhow, they apologised and promptly sent a replacement and the same happened again.
By all means give it a go and they will refund you without issue.
Just received my case from AliExpress.
Very thin and first impressions are favourable although I'm tempted to put a thin clear film over the joint between the case and mini screen in the corner in case the edge flexes and scratches the screen.
Construction is a very thin hardshell rear with a plastic flip and a smoked translucent corner on the front.
Clearance for the cameras on the rear is minimal.
There's a small square magnet visible on the flip below the widow for the hall sensor to let out acts as a smart cover.
Using miui12 always on screen and smart case options gives a small clock and battery indicator in the window.
Can see the height difference between the Xiaomi smart cover and the leather case I had before.
The orange is muted and the Matt dark grey of the phone holder contrasts nicely.
Hopefully the mi10 won't get as warm with this case as it did with the leather one!
Does it affect (reduce) the screen on lateral ?

What do you mean by lateral?
That might not have translated well
The screen turns off when you close the case and turns on when you open it.
I highly suggest not using this case! it leaves a mark on your display exactly where the glass plastic part begins. because it is not perfectly flush with the leather part.
I used mine for about a week and have a permanent scratch on the display the entire length of the plastic window.

nope mine did not come with a protector! which is odd cause everyone got theirs with a protector already applied. At the time I assumed this product would protect the display until my glass gets here but... it did the opposite -_-
I don't use this case even now that i have the glass on my phone because it limits the ways I can use it.
It looks dumb when taking photos because the thing just flaps in the air also cannot use my gimbal or my bike mount. all in all not my best purchase

I can't believe plastic is able to scratch the gorilla glass display.

I would guess you have an screen protector. I didn't see mine at first because ist sits perfect.
Looking at the notch is where i could see it on my phone.

I didn't believe it either but my phone did. lol
Be my guest and try for yourself. I don't know the technical term but the screen has some sort of coating as it's top most layer and the case made a permanent mark on the glass if you clean it perfectly it's not visible. But as soon as you touch the display that part will get dirty almost instantly. Another example, if i use an alcohol wipe the outline of the window on the display retains moisture and the rest does not. So call it what you want but this case damages your display.
my solution was to clean the display perfectly and put a "Hydrogel" (marketing BS for plastic foil) on top. I totally forgot about it until you quoted my post
Oh you mean the oleo phobic coating. Been there already because i was so "smart" and had washed my first smartphone display with dishwashing soap and was wondering why it was getting dirty even after cleaning.
Later I found a solution:
