What is the Best LG G3 Screen Protector?

I just bought an LG G3 smartphone (going for Android) and just like in my previous phone iPhone 5 i used the Spigen Screen protector I bought from Amazon, but now with LG G3 i'm looking for a different brand, any idea if what is the best screen protector for the LG G3? I found this and bought with easy installation dubbed smart film, so far so good love it!
MOD EDIT: Link removed. Affiliate links are not permitted
But I'm looking for other alternatives for a screen protector, my wife is planning to buy one also, any suggestions?
Here are my qualifications
Should be easy to install (no water spray installation please)
will not turn yellow
bubble free
and of course it cost less

Why not stick with Spigen?
Bubbles only occur if there is dust or particle underneath. I've installed multiple screen protectors flawlessly. If there are bubbles caused by particles, I just use scotch tape and remove it.
Yellowing is very rare. Most standard screen protectors don't use water. It uses static to cling to screen. Only those "shield" require water and even those aren't smooth or clear.
It seems people are into tempered glass now. I just ordered 2 (one for me and the other for wife). I won't get my phone until Saturday. So I'll have the tempered glass and case before I'll have phone.

i am using momax glass sp...very good as it prevent lot of finger prints and smudges

I bought mine off eBay. Haven't received it yet so i havent tried it. And as I mentioned, I won't have my phone until Saturday when I'm eligible for upgrade. Bought it from seller impressgifts.
iCarez is another brand that I heard was good. Was going to get them but wanted to build up my eBay bucks

I got the Skinomi glass protector:
http://www.amazon.com/Skinomi-Tech-...TF8&qid=1406120489&sr=1-1&keywords=g3+skinomi
I had one for my G2 as well. I didn't notice the iCare one; it seems to be half the price, and seem identical from what I can see. You can't even tell it is on, it never scratches (I problem with the plastic films, you eventually get nicks, etc). I had no problems with knock on/off or sensitivity (it has the appropriate cutouts - earlier versions of the G2 one didn't and that caused problems, IIRC). Great investment, you'll likely never need another protector (I had to replace my Spigens every few months on other phones).
For the price difference between the Skinomi and iCare: not sure why. I know if the Skinomi comes with a an alcohol swab and microfiber cloth as well as a large screen-sized sticker for pulling off any dust right before you put on the glass. Not sure if the iCare comes with those, but they were handy. Not sure if they were $6 handy...

I never had an issue with regular screen protectors. I put them on my phones and they last for the 2 years+ until I get a new phone.
Most I paid for the flimsy screen protectors is probably $15 for a 2 pack from reputable brands. This is my first time buying a tempered glass. This may make me buy tempered glass for all my phones in the future.

I bought that same ICarez one a few day ago and to be honest Im happy with my purchase. Its a good fit, no too thick and doesnt effect the screen sensitivity too much. As for fingerprints its the same as the actual screen glass ie fingerprints do get on it but wipe off very easily.

thinking about trying this
http://www.invisiblewaterproofing.com/

Maybe it's cliche but I got the Zagg HD put on mine and it's spot on. The fact that it self-heals is a big help. I also kinda like the slight grip.

I have the Spigen tempered glass on mines. Flawless! I got lucky and lined it perfectly on the first try. It also doesn't bubble up with any case on. The only con is that it's quite expensive, but it performs as advertised so I'm satisfied with it.

yes I guess I have to switch to tempered glass protectors than the usual plastic protectors

I switched from Spigen (plastic) to an iCarez tempered glass. Very, very happy with the results. I had issues with fingerprints with the Spigen, and the tempered glass just feels better.

you got the regular icarez? .33mm? mind putting a picture? thanks

Yes I got the .33 mm Icarez and I tried taking pictures but you really cant see anything in them. Its just basically a glass over it nothing really to see but il post what I can

I ended up buying the tempered glass from the Verizon store (didn't wanna change my phone while I waited for one).
Plays well with my otter box after removing built in screen pro, and my ballistic. Can't even tell it's there. .
Not to mention I seen someone drop a 15lb weight on their phone, and just the tempered broke. Your results may vary, just passing it along.

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

Does plastic screen protector protects your phone from falls and prevents shattering like the glass ones?

I bought this one but was rubbish bad rainbow affect and started coming off withing a week https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07BHLGSBT/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_apa_i_5VY8Ab1MD67AR

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

Question Outer/Cover Display Screen Protector

Can anyone recommend a tempered glass or other quality screen protector for the outer cover display? Something that you've personally used and can vouch for.
Thanks in advance!

Yep. Mine was basically destroyed on day 1 with normal use.

Whitestone has a ez screen protector and also a liquid adhered protector. I have installed ez one without trouble since a few days before official release and it's still holding strong. You also get 2 for like $10 so you can't really beat it

Looks like it might have trouble fitting properly if used with a case. The black border looks problematic. Have you used it with a case and, if so, do you have any pics or comments on that? Thanks.

I'm trying to figure out the best front screen protector as well. I would prefer tempered glass but have only seen a couple and not in stock at the moment. Still have the stock one on it but it's starting to bubble and peel/Crack on the sides.

I'm using these white stone dome front tempered glass screen protector. I got two of them for $10. They work decent with a case. But make sure it is a minimalistic case like the Samsung carbon fiber.

I am currently using samsungs silicone case and there is no problems with it coming off. Have not tried with a heavy duty case but I honestly don't see it as a problem

I got my leather case (samsung one) today and love it. However as soon as i applied it the cover screen plastic protector came off in the edge so i just removed it.
since it seems pretty thick on the inside - is there any 9h glass available yet which fits with the case? Or can i go to a samsung store and they reapply the plastic one on the cover screen?
i dont mind paying

I'm using the Whitestone glass screen protector. NOT the EZ. I've used it on all my phones since it was first released, including I Note devices and the Z Fold 2.

I use this for Extra protection

Whitestone Dome Glass UV.

I'm waiting on these to get delivered to me today actually. The stock one on my front screen is starting bubble and peel up on the side. My case kinda covers it up but the stock one is also picking up quite a few scratches. Hopefully these will do the job. Isn't that easy to fine a good tempered glass screen protector for this device. Spigen looks to be coming out with one but not available yet.

I'm using the Ringke Slim and I really like it. I ordered the Spigen S Pen case, but it won't ship for another week or so. Looks bigger than I'd like, but definitely need something I can switch to when I really need to carry the S Pen and don't want to have it loose in a pocket.
I also ordered the official Samsung Aramid case (which also won't arrive for another week or two). Based on the reports I've read and the pics I've seen, the Aramid appears to be the slimmest case available for the ZF3. I hate bulky cases, especially on a device that's as large as the ZF3, so I'm guessing I'll probably settle on the Aramid for 90% of my daily use.

Great case. No scratches. Not sure how anyone scratched their Fold with this case. You'd have to be pretty damn careless to do that. I used the adhesive strips.

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.

Yes, no screen protector in the box, and it is frustrating. I think Samsung is reducing the use of plastic so they are selling it separately you can try the Gadgetshieldz film screen protector which is really good and it is made from nano polymer and it can self-heal the scratches occur on it!

well they are pushing on using less plastic and going carbon neutral so that might be the reason orr..... might just be cost

Typically plastic film works less with yltrasonic sensors.
Try a glass one.

Mine came with a screen protector. I took it off and put a tempered glass on.

They do it so they can claim to be green while passing the waste and cost to the end consumer who's going to end up buying it all anyway.

I don't like it too but they are far more scratch resistant than plastic film. I have bought cheap hydrogel film from Aliexpress and fews days after, you already get some scratches. Same with a more expensive one, the Spigen Neoflex, totally useless as it scratches too easily.
So now, only tempered glass...

Trying to be Apple, No Charger/No Screen Protector/No 3.5mm Jack

That's why I suggested a Gadgetshieldz film screen guard which is not completely plastic and it can heal the scratches as I'm using one, I don't see the scratches they all disappear within minutes!

yh no plastic but they include that first protector with the little tab that it's not meant to be used as a film protector.
I mean, they could just include a proper film to give the user the choice to either keep it or peel it off.

so no screen protector on the phone out of the box- and the reason is to reduce plastic waste. I got the official samsung screen protector from the samsung shop- there is four times the amount of plastic waste in the packing as well as the box it came in. This is a load of samsung BS , just another revenue stream to upsell

Yeah, they are reducing the use of plastic but they just increase the cost of the phone!!!

If Samsung sees this comment they will just give away the protector as usual! Plastic waste is just a concept for them to earn extra money for the protectors!!!

I'm fed up getting a Samsung screen protector separately which is costly and it'll peel off in a few months!
