[REVIEW][PICS!] SGP Ultra Silke & Steinheil Ultra Crystal SP

Received my SGP Ultra Silke case in Soul Black for the Galaxy S II (SHW-M250S)(SHW-M250K)(GT-i9100) today. Thought I'd do a little review.
Where is it from?
Designed in California, made in Korea.
Where can I buy it?
eBay has a few sellers selling it. That's where I got mine.
Retail price?
I think MSRP is $19.99 excl. shipping. eBay prices are about the same.
Shipping?
Ordered it Monday May 30th and got it today (Tuesday June 7th). Not too bad. It was shipped directly from Korea.
What's in the box?
1x SGP Case Ultra Silke
1x Steinheil Ultra Crystal screen protector
1x Microfibre cleaning cloth
Gifts?
This wasn't mentioned in the description or anything but I got two extra screen protectors (in addition to the Steinheil one in the box). Some Korean brand (Phone Mirror) I've never heard of. It's for the SHW-M250S/K but looks like it should fit fine on my i9100. No holes for the FF cam or sensors though. Just cutouts for the earpiece and home button.
Packaging?
It arrived in a little padded mailer. Nothing special.
Box itself is a clear plastic box, with a black matte plastic base. There's a sticker covering the bottom bit telling you what type of case, what color and what phone it's for. It wraps around the side (where it tells you there's an included Steinheil SP) and ends at the base, where there's a barcode. There's also a SGP hologram on the top right corner.
The clear bit is just taped to the matte base. It lifts off to reveal the case.
Under that there's a paper insert with the serial number and under that is the SP and the microfibre cloth.
Case?
The case itself is a silicon case. Nothing like the average cheapo silicon cases though... It feels sorta satin-matte-y. Very flexible too.
See, it's actually a silicon case coated with a polymer coating which should prevent dust and other particles from sticking to it and makes it easier to slip in and out of a pocket.
The 'easier to slip in/out of a pocket' is true- it's actually quite slippery. If you're looking for a case to improve grip on the phone (clumsy?) then this isn't the case you're looking for.
It also does sorta prevent dust from sticking on the case. I think you have to break it in or something like that first- it got dust stuck to it like crazy (seemingly out of thin air) for the first few hours but it's just fine now.
The cutouts are absolutely perfect. Both mic holes match up perfectly (and since they're both just little pinpricks, not huge craters, that's pretty impressive). Speaker hole matches up perfectly. There's even a little bit of silicon sticking out on the sides of the hole to indicate where the first speaker hole ends and where the second hole starts.
Headphone jack matches up just as perfectly. Maybe a bit too perfect- a generic aux cable wouldn't fit due to the huge amount of plastic surrounding the jack (it would only go 3/4 in). A cable with a slimmer plastic surround worked though. Most headphone cables should work fine.
The strap hole is perfectly cut out too.
There is no gap around the camera hole. Yes, the cover does touch the table before the camera lens, so no worries there.
The microUSB port hole is fine obviously.
Unfortunately, there is a cutout on the top right corner for the Korean-spec DMB TV tuner. Possibly a weak spot. But then again, this case was was advertised for and designed for the SHW-M250S/K so that's to be expected. I wonder if they'll release a US/UK-spec version?
On the front there is a pretty thick lip so no worries about placing the phone face down.
The power and volume buttons aren't cut-outs, the plastic cover acts as a button extender. They work fine. Not harder to push than without the case or anything.
Swiping your finger against the side and bottom does cause the silicon to move since it's not a rigid material. Potentially irritating to some. Dust might also get in that way?
SGP labelling on case?
One nitpick many people have with cases is that many companies slap a hugeass logo or text self-advertising the case company.
On this case, there's (from top to bottom) the SGP logo, 'SGP CASE' and ' ULTRA SILKE' on the bottom. Small text and very minimalistic. It's just above the reverse chin on the back. Not loud or anything.
Take the case off and you'll find a whole bunch of text telling you what brand & type of case it is, where it was designed, where it was made, and what type of phone it's for.
Steinheil Ultra Crystal Screen Protector?
They advertise it to be 25% thicker than normal protectors for additional anti-scratch/scuff protection. It's also (apparently) 'anti-UV' and fingerprints should be wiped away easily. I don't think it's oleophobic though.
Application is the usual 2-step 'remove the first bit, stick it on, then remove the protective top layer' method. As previously mentioned, there is a provided microfibre cleaning cloth. No squeegee though.
It does seem to be thicker than my generic protector I already have applied. No cutouts for the FF cam or sensors either- only cutouts are for the earpiece and home button.
No camera protector provided unlike with some other SGP products.
[above this is just based on a general observation- haven't applied the SP yet- probably won't till I scratch my current protector into oblivion first]
Pictures?
Here you go. Sorry, iPhone 4 images.

Hope this helps... someone Feel free to ask other questions if you want. (and yeah... so much for a 'little' review )

Thanks!
I was wating for somthing like this.. still trying to decide between this one to the Ultra capsule..

nice review. is it bulky? attract dust?

Does your case have a slight bulge on the volume rocker and top part of the phone, mine one isn't straight. If you hold up the edge of an A4 piece of paper you can see they're not parallel, just wondering if there's an issue with my case. I've got the UK model.

I bought this as well from Korea
Still waiting for the SII to launch in my country
From the pictures it seems to have quite a bit of dust sticking on the case even though you said it does not attract dust... Hmmmmm......

Doesn't add much thickness or weight to the phone.
As mentioned in the OP it does attract dust directly OOTB but after using it for a bit it becomes bearable.

I wish you hadn't mentioned that... now all I see are the slight bulges on the sides... Yes I have that issue too, but it's very slight.

Pictures were taken immediately after taking it out of the box. It's better now, and when dust does stick, a quick brush with a finger solves it.

thanks for the review, i have SGP Oleophobic screen protector coming soon. So let us know how the SGP Ultra fairs

Sure, like I said, I'll apply it if I trash my current protector. I'll be sure to update this thread when I do that.
Let us know how the oleophobic protector is too, hm?

You sure the screen protector is sgp? Cause mine looks way different to yours and i got mine sent from seoul from my sister in law.

The clear film under the microfibre cleaning cloth in the 2nd image is the SGP Ultra Crystal protector provided with the Ultra Silke case.
The 2 'Phone Mirror/High Quality' protectors in the 3rd picture were a 'free gift' from the seller. Those are generic Korean protectors, not SGP.
If you rip open one of those packages you have it should look similar to what's in the 2nd picture.

Just wanted to add that the microUSB cutout in this case is large enough to fit the DealExtreme USB OTG cables.
Also dust barely sticks on to it now. Only major issue is the TV antenna cutout in the top right- I can see myself dropping the phone and having that corner hit the floor (yeah I'm unlucky like that).

I have the gloss version of this case and I can very highly recommend it. I had the 'casemate - barely there' case, but sent it back cause this was £1 more and much much better.
Comparing the two i'd say that the SGP is marginally thicker, but is still by no means a thick case and can be considered a slim case. As OP mentioned case has a lip that extends over the front of the phone, which i'd imagine would give some (though limited) protected against being dropped face down. The casemate didn't have this. The cut-outs are perfect except for that troublesome TV tuner corner, but you'd have to drop your phone at a very exact angle in order to do any damage. Whereas the cutouts on the barely there .. well.. they were so large they exposed massive regions of the phone.
Also the case is made out of a hard rubber type material. I've had a cheap silicon case from eBay, and this is nothing like that. Much slimmer and the material is much harder. It feels like its built to perfectly absorb shock. The casemate was hard plastic, i'd image that would give absolutely minimum shock protection if the phone was dropped.
I haven't had the dust attraction problem that OP had, but the gloss case gets covered in fingerprint marks really easily. A quick wipe with the t-shirt sorts this out though.
Not sure what else to say. Oh, the gloss effect is 'enhanced' by having a bit of glitter on the case. Its like darkish glitter and subtle, but non-the-less my case is covered in glitter. As a man I feel slightly uncomfortable with having a phone covered in glitter. I really wanted the gloss case, but if i'd know if was all glittery I probably would have gone for the matt. Its not enough of a concern for me to send it back though, just a thought for people wanting to buy the gloss case. You can kind of see in this picture, though it just looks like dust - it is in fact sparkly glitter:
In terms of the screen protector that came with the case. Nothing new to report. I received the Stienheil Ultra screen protectors and a little microfibre cloth. I'd say the surface is slightly less slippery and hold finger prints slightly more, but is worth it for the protection.
The cutouts were perfect and cover the whole of the screen surface except for the speaker and the middle button. The front camera is covered, but I haven't noticed and picture quality difference. There is a 1mm margin uncovered margin around the face.
Thats all I can say. Pretty much do not buy the 'casemate barely there' because for £1 (eBay prices anyway) and the tiniest margin of thickness more you get a much higher quality and much safer feeling case that comes with high quality screen protectors.

Great thread. I just can't understand why the cutout is there on the corner. You would think they would want to make two versions given the international market for this mobile.

The glitter is one of the reasons I chose the silke over the capsule.
The dust problem is no longer noticeable and even when dust does get stuck to it a quick brush with a sleeve or something. Can't say the same for the inside though- seems to be more rubbery than the exterior.
I eventually stuck some tape over the top right corner to cover up the TV tuner hole. Might help just in case, idk.
Nice review, and makes me glad I chose the silke

Well to be fair the guy I bought it from is from Korea, and the box clearly states for Korean SGSIIs, so can't blame em too much Would be nice if they made an 'international' version though, yes.

Bought an Ultra Slike and loving it. Had one of those cheaper cases but this one looks better. Unfortunate though for the cutout, could have been so much nicer without it

It does look sleek doesn't it?
Makes my s-curve case look bulky and ugly in comparison (and I thought that looked good when I bought it, hah).
It's a bit slippery though. Is the inside of the case more rubbery/grippy than the outside on yours?

Haha it does and it fits nicely. True about the slipperiness but I can live with it. Just have to be careful

I have the Ultra Silke and its a nice case.
Does anyone else have a problem with the SGP screen protector lifting slightly beneath the home key?
I think the rubber lip is catching it as I take it in and out of my pocket.
Might just go for a more rigid case, possibly the SGP capsule and see how that goes

Review: Martin Field's Overlay Screen Protector

I purchased this based on some feedback I had read one some other forums. I have tried nearly every major screen protector out there (Spigen, RearthUSA, Incipio, Switcheasy, BodyGuardz, XO Skins, Best Skins Ever, a ton of cheap ones off Amazon, Zagg, etc.). Up until this point, I had always found the Ultra Crystal from Spigen to be the best overall. Not anymore.
Before I get started I want to mention that the Martin Fields Screen protectors are not cheap. One screen protector for the Galaxy Nexus is $16.99 ($34.99 for one iPad protector and $29.99 for one Nexus 7 protector)and it only comes with one screen protector and a set of instructions. That's it.
One issue I've always found to be a huge problem with these dry, crystal clear screen protectors (Again, think Spigen Ultra Crystal) is that they show fingerprints so easily that it really can become a huge nuisance and to my surprise this one doesn't show much at all. I would say it's nearly as good at resisting fingerprints as a matte finish screen protector.
A very innovative feature this screen protector offers is that it is completely removable. They include a Mylar sheet that you can stick it to if you need to take it off. Just apply a small piece of scotch tape at the bottom corner and slowly pull to remove it. This does bring up the biggest problem that I have with this protector though. It is somewhat brittle. It will crease if you aren't careful with it. In fact, if you look in the pictures I have posted, you'll notice a slight crease in the bottom right corner. I've emailed the seller that I purchased it from on Amazon to see if they'll replace it. Not sure if that'll happen and it isn't all that distracting.
Quick Summary:
PROS:
As clear as any I've ever used
Does not pick up oils like most clear, dry application screen protectors generally do
Feels as close to glass as anything I've ever used
Reusable
Covers entire screen
Comes with a Camera Lens cover as well
CONS:
Not cheap. If you purchase directly from MartinFields.com it is $16.99 + $4.99 shipping. Be aware of fakes on Amazon.
Doesn't come with much. Just a simple paper package, a screen protector and a Mylar sheet to apply it to if you decide to take it off and use it later.
Fragile, it will crease if you aren't careful
Almost too big. If you don't line it up absolutely perfect it will not adhere on the sides, bottom. It's almost cut too perfect to a fault.
Anyway, here are some pictures. I had just ran my palm down the screen to show you just how well this does on hand oils.

I already have one but I will concur with everything you said
Mine creased before I put it on but I was able to bend it back and can't tell you where the crease ever was at this point. Mine is scratched up pretty good at this point but I'm hard on phones so it's not surprising. I've yet to find a screen protector that holds up to my use.

Mind had a crease initially. I contacted their support line in Hong Kong and they had one sent out to me the next day. I ended up buying one for my Nexus 7 and my iPad 3.
It's weird, the Ultra Crystal's and many other dry application protectors leave blue smears when you try to wipe away fingerprints. These don't. They are there but they don't leave that annoying blue greasy smudge.

i-Blason 0.24mm 8H Tempered glass screen protector review.

Hey guys, having been a die-hard fan of SGP ultra crystal screen protectors for all the devices in the home (Evo LTE, One, iPhone 4(s), Asus TF101), I was a little disappointed to learn from another thread here that SGP didn't have plans to bring their tempered glass screen protector to our shiny new N7 FHDs. I had checked out the SGP model on my friend's Note 2 and decided that on my next device i would give one of these a try. Luckily i-Blason came to the rescue with their version of a tempered glass screen protector and here's my review, I hope it will be helpful and perhaps answer some questions.
The protector was packaged in a plastic folder frame and came in a padded envelope. On the inside it had the regular microfiber square, squeegee, and the protector itself in a paper sleeve as well as the protective plastic on both sides.

Immediately I noticed how much thicker and stiffer it was compared to the dry apply plastic ones. I tried to flex it a bit and of course being at that thickness, it did have a small amount of give but overall pretty hard. I tried to get a picture of how thick it is compared to an SGP Ultra Crystal for the HTC One that i had lying around, but the photos don't really illustrate too well the difference between the two. The first is the i-Blason, second is the SGP.
Looking at the screen protector itself I thought there were holes for the camera and the sensors, however it was actually the case that it was actually just thinner at those parts in the back, the front is one continuous piece with no holes in it. This came as a surprise to me as I was expecting holes, but given how thick it is and its stiffness, it was a good call on their part.
I used the hinge method, and scotch taped any particles of dust out of the way. My house is pretty dusty so it actually seemed like the hover method might have worked better, ymmv. Once you get it in place, due to its stiffness its actually pretty easy to lift up without worrying about bending the corner.
I got it on there properly aligned, but as you can see in some of the photos there are some spots where the adhesive just didn't seem to want to stick too well. I've had this issue in the past with a few of my SGP protectors, so i would just guess its the silicone adhesive not being completely uniform on the underside. The issue is cosmetic and does not affect the display sensitivity or the quality once the screen is lit.
Heres some photos of the 4 corners after I was done. The cut was very precise and everything lined up perfectly.
Heres a picture of it from profile after installation. I am slightly worried about the fact that it does stick up a bit from the bezel, but given that my friend's Note 2 is pocketed and his is just as thick, there shouldn't be any problems with lifting, especially since I intend on having it in a case when I'm out and about. Something to think about though if you're the kind of user that doesn't like cases ruining the looks of your device.
And finally, I tried my best to take before and after photos of the same screen on max brightness. We all know that trying to take a photo of a screen is usually a futile endeavor in regards to showing distortion of screen protectors, but what the hell here they are for the sake of completeness.
Can you tell which is which? I can't so i guess thats a good thing.
I don't think I've seen many complaints if at all regarding the fact that the screen is too slippery. I know that at this dpi and this smaller screen size typing is more difficult as the already oversensitive screen registers even the tiniest movements as a swipe. This screen protector actually brings that slipperiness down, to about the same as all my other devices naked. Looking forward to using my device more now as I didn't care too much for the super slippery glass. I was in an excited hurry to write up this review as I know there are others that were curious about his product and I'm willing to bet they probably have only a smidge more patience than I.
TL;DR: I was skeptical of this screen protector as I have never heard of nor had any experience with the brand, however I wanted to try something new, and i'm glad it turned out well so far. If i had to give this thing a score, it would have to be a 4.5 out of 5 due to the spots on the screen that didn't quite stick completely and thus introduced some visual artifacts.
PROS:
Thick, the hardness probably won't do much against a drop on the side, but it might protect it better than a dry apply plastic protector and not have the orange peel or rubber feeling of wet apply protectors.
Easy to install: The stiffness makes installation via the hinge method a breeze. Lifting corners to get rid of dust after you get it aligned is also painless as theres little risk of bending it like with plasic protectors.
More scratch resistant? I didn't want to try it with a key test, but i'm hoping given its 8H rating that it will maintain its pristine appearence longer than my SGPs, which admittedly scratch when you breathe on them.
Its glass, you're basically putting another screen on top of your screen, thats like strapping another car in front of your car to protect its front.
CONS:
Price: when I bought this on amazon it was 20 bucks, it has since gone up to 25. Last time i checked the SGP crystal clear is priced at 13 per piece on their website. This is almost twice the price, but if it lasts through the life of 2 SGPs and still looks awesome, its totally worth it.
Thick: Its primary strength may prove to be a weakness. The screen protector MAY be subject to lateral forces which may start to lift it, time will tell.
Doesn't stick perfectly at some places: This could be my fault for having lifted it a few times to pick up dust, or it could be its too stiff and doesn't want to conform, or less than perfect adhesive application at the factory. Whosever fault it is, the problem is cosmetic and in no way affects the operation of the N7.
Not prime eligible: Not really a knock on the product itself, but i had to wait quite awhile for this.
Having just had a few hours with it, I can say that I would recommend this to any one who wants to try a glass screen protector. They could have priced it more ridiculously, but at the current price point it seems fair for what you're getting.
UPDATE: Those tiny little spots are gone now that ive spent a little bit of time applying regular finger pressure on them for a few minutes.

What case is that? And nice review! Was thinking about getting one myself.

Nice review. I ordered the same one. Interestingly the mailman just dropped mine off while reading your review Lol. I'll apply mine when I'm off work tomorrow xD

I also received and applied my i-Blason screen today. I think mine came with a defect on part of it, because there is one bubble that refuses to go away. Its not dust either. I'm super anal about not having bubbles. So I asked i-blason if they can send out a new one as their is a 1 year satisfaction warranty that specifically says it covers bubbles underneath the screen. Other than me being anal about the bubble though, this is a super screen protector and I highly recommend it to anyone.

I just received mine today as well. The install was quick and easy. No bubbles, everything lined up perfect. No loss in touch response either. I would recommend this screen protector.

I know you mentioned it is just thinner in those areas and they aren't actually holes, but I wonder why they all keep doing anything special at all for the notification LED on the clear models. They are putting in extra effort and it makes it worse
I could understand on the anti-glare models. Illumishield got rid of the notification cutout on their latest SP version.

Probably so you can see it better. I think it makes sense in this case.

got mine yesterday as well, just installed it. installed pretty cleanly.
so far i love it.
anybody using a case to cover the back of the n7, not a skin per se, but more of back cover/case, which doesn't interfere with the screen protector?

I got a defective one today. Big bubble is under the glass.

Did you try to pick it back up and pushing down on that spot as you're laying it down? Once the bubble gets trapped its impossible to get out with the squeegee

Once you get it in place, due to its stiffness its actually pretty easy to lift up without worrying about bending the corner.
I got it on there properly aligned, but as you can see in some of the photos there are some spots where the adhesive just didn't seem to want to stick too well. I've had this issue in the past with a few of my SGP protectors, so i would just guess its the silicone adhesive not being completely uniform on the underside. The issue is cosmetic and does not affect the display sensitivity or the quality once the screen is lit.
Heres some photos of the 4 corners after I was done. The cut was very precise and everything lined up perfectly.
Heres a picture of it from profile after installation. I am slightly worried about the fact that it does stick up a bit from the bezel, but given that my friend's Note 2 is pocketed and his is just as thick, there shouldn't be any problems with lifting, especially since I intend on having it in a case when I'm out and about. Something to think about though if you're the kind of user that doesn't like cases ruining the looks of your device.
And finally, I tried my best to take before and after photos of the same screen on max brightness. We all know that trying to take a photo of a screen is usually a futile endeavor in regards to showing distortion of screen protectors, but what the hell here they are for the sake of completeness.
Can you tell which is which? I can't so i guess thats a good thing.
I don't think I've seen many complaints if at all regarding the fact that the screen is too slippery. I know that at this dpi and this smaller screen size typing is more difficult as the already oversensitive screen registers even the tiniest movements as a swipe. This screen protector actually brings that slipperiness down, to about the same as all my other devices naked. Looking forward to using my device more now as I didn't care too much for the super slippery glass. I was in an excited hurry to write up this review as I know there are others that were curious about his product and I'm willing to bet they probably have only a smidge more patience than I.
TL;DR: I was skeptical of this screen protector as I have never heard of nor had any experience with the brand, however I wanted to try something new, and i'm glad it turned out well so far. If i had to give this thing a score, it would have to be a 4.5 out of 5 due to the spots on the screen that didn't quite stick completely and thus introduced some visual artifacts.
PROS:
Thick, the hardness probably won't do much against a drop on the side, but it might protect it better than a dry apply plastic protector and not have the orange peel or rubber feeling of wet apply protectors.
Easy to install: The stiffness makes installation via the hinge method a breeze. Lifting corners to get rid of dust after you get it aligned is also painless as theres little risk of bending it like with plasic protectors.
More scratch resistant? I didn't want to try it with a key test, but i'm hoping given its 8H rating that it will maintain its pristine appearence longer than my SGPs, which admittedly scratch when you breathe on them.
Its glass, you're basically putting another screen on top of your screen, thats like strapping another car in front of your car to protect its front.
CONS:
Price: when I bought this on amazon it was 20 bucks, it has since gone up to 25. Last time i checked the SGP crystal clear is priced at 13 per piece on their website. This is almost twice the price, but if it lasts through the life of 2 SGPs and still looks awesome, its totally worth it.
Thick: Its primary strength may prove to be a weakness. The screen protector MAY be subject to lateral forces which may start to lift it, time will tell.
Doesn't stick perfectly at some places: This could be my fault for having lifted it a few times to pick up dust, or it could be its too stiff and doesn't want to conform, or less than perfect adhesive application at the factory. Whosever fault it is, the problem is cosmetic and in no way affects the operation of the N7.
Not prime eligible: Not really a knock on the product itself, but i had to wait quite awhile for this.
Having just had a few hours with it, I can say that I would recommend this to any one who wants to try a glass screen protector. They could have priced it more ridiculously, but at the current price point it seems fair for what you're getting.
UPDATE: Those tiny little spots are gone now that ive spent a little bit of time applying regular finger pressure on them for a few minutes.

It's a dBrand skin. There's a thread for it in this section. Please don't quote the entire OP in the future...

I had a pretty large bubble when I applied mine at first. You have to work from the middle out. It is harder to work the bubbles out then compared to a normal screen protector.

I am not comfort on the think and no hole at front camera position.

Got the screen protector earlier this week, and finally got around to installing this afternoon. No issues applying, though it's a little skewed from user error. The screen protector is on par with all the other glass SP on my other devices. For my it's just added comfort that the original glass is protected.
I noticed a few "marks" under the screen protector after application. They seemed to be indentations in the adhesive from the factory. Applying fingertip / fingernail pressure to the affected areas for a few seconds seemed to help the silicon stick better and clear the trapped air.
I'm glad they chose not to leave holes in the screen protector. Less area for dirt, dust and lint to collect. The camera doesn't seem to be affected by the layer of glass. The illusion of a "cutout" may just be the lack of silicon adhesive in each area. I highly doubt they took the extra time to grind down each area.
Get this screen protector. You won't be disappointed in the feel and protection.

I've had mine on for over a week I think it's great.

The "hole" by the camera and the notification light are not actually holes. I didn't look closely at the sp before I applied it but I think they are just areas where the glass is thinner so there is no adhesive on those areas or it is a different type of glass. If you rub your finger across where the camera and notification light are it is completely smooth. You don't feel an indentation or anything. So it is just one solid price of tempered glass with no cutouts. It does gives the appearance that there are cutout holes there but there aren't. It does not affect the camera in any way.

My original one ended up shattered when I received it. Emailed the company and they sent a replacement. Just got my new one today. Easy installation. As for the shattered one, I took a knife to it for kicks. No scratches. Definitely worth the money.

Honor 9 Cases, Screen Protectors and other Accessories

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....

I don't like this type of tempered glass (i know that is the only solution for cover 3d display without space).
So, someone has tested "invisible film screen protector"?

If someone else has tried this protective film, please give us a feedback.

Did someone try the Mofi screen protector? According to a review on Aliexpress it has minimal space at both sides.

I've seen ones from ultimate shield, I'm considering getting one.

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.

}
First, start off with the screen protector:
Nillkin Amazing H+ tempered glass screen protector ~$6 USD
Recommended if you are highly skilled, you need to be highly skilled to apply the screen protector perfectly and no mistakes. Because once you get air bubbles underneath the screen protector, it's nearly impossible to get it out. Plus if you remove and reapply, you will pretty much get permanent bubbles at the corner. Once you lift it up even with little force, the adhesive is pretty much destroyed. Other than those cons I will think it's an okay screen protector, if you can get it on spot the first time without air bubbles.
It's coated with oleophobic coating, so you will probably get less fingerprint on your screen, it's thin with 0.2mm thickness (can flex slightly more without breaking it comparing to conventional screen protector).
Conclusion: It's an excellent screen protector if you can apply it in one go perfect alignment, no dust etc. Otherwise if you are a newbie (like me) it's definitely not for you, look for other screen protector or ask someone who is great at installing screen protector apply it for you. But for the price, I can't complain. I will get another thicker one (0.3mm) in few days time as I don't like imperfect applications.
Tips: Do not take out the screen protector until you are ready to apply it. Use all the accessories Nillkin provided before applying the screen protector, clean your screen with wet & dry wipes first, and then use the anti-static film to remove remaining dust on the screen. Your screen shouldn't pick up any dust for 2-3 mins unless you are in a very dusty place. When you finally ready to install the screen protector, remove it from the protective film case and then apply it on your screen. Don't peel off the adhesive protection film altogether at start, instead pull 30% off and then try align to your screen properly, once confirmed then only peel it off completely. If you have bubbles on the side, just keep pressure on it for around 1-2 mins and they will be gone.
2nd screen protector:
Nillkin Amazing H tempered glass screen protector ~$5 USD
Highly recommended, this one the original Amazing H screen protector is much more better than the H+ screen protector. It doesn't have the slight color fade after applying compared to the H+ version. Although it is slightly thicker (0.3mm) and doesn't curve like the H+ at the edges, I still recommend this one over the H+, and check it out! No halo effect, rainbow effect, ring of light effect nonsense.
Just get this one if your just an average user and needs some basic protection (of course this one also have oleophobic coating), this one will do the job perfectly, and it's cheaper too.
USB cable:
Nillkin USB Type-C 5V/2A charging and data cable ~$3
Recommended, supports 5V and 2A charging which our phone supports, supports data connectivity too. You can wrap it up if you don't need to excessive length of it. The Type A connector are also reversible, which is a plus.
For some reason I felt that the cable quality is not that great compared to my 2 years old Nillkin Micro-USB cable, seems like they have cut cost in order to sell it at cheaper price. But it does the job perfectly.
Conclusion: If you are not looking for fancy cables and just want a flat and cheap cable, this one is definitely for you.
Case:
Nillkin Mi 5x/A1 Frosted Shield case ~$5.50
Highly recommended. I always bought Nillkin case, although it doesn't cover the upper and bottom part of your phone. It looks really slick and provide very comfortable grip for you. Note that the cover only give very minor buffer between your screen and surface if you put your phone upside down. Adding any tempered glass will definitely cause it higher than the case. Although it only gives basic protection, but it doesn't look that bulky compared to those TPU case.
I always love Nillkin case, they made very good cases for each phone, and their quality is very good too. (Although I got face some crack in old case before, but it's rare)
Conclusion: If you are looking for a case that won't make your phone looks bulky and add some grip, this case will probably suits you. But take note that only gives basic protection, any drops will be bad.

Hello, friend. After I see the Nillkin screen protector on A1, I have some doubts, as the edge part is a little cracked from the photo. I don't know why this. As Nillkin is a good quality phone accessory brand. If the Nillkin screen protectors can be 2 pcs pack, then it is better. As if you are a newbie, and you broke the first A1 screen protector by careless, you can try the second one.
As we are the seller, so we sincerely invite any people who are interested in our Xiaomi A1 screen protector kit for free. 10 candidates are needed and no money at all. Just the real feedback to prove our customer values. If you are interested, you can contact us at [email protected] , emails are replied within 1 working day.
Why we choose this kind of screen protector for Xiaomi Mi A1? As we know, currently a lot of phones are made based on curved screen. It is a challenge for screen protector manufacturers. If the screen is flat, who does not like transparent full screen coverage protector? But now it is a curved screen phones era. While glasses cannot bend. So 2 solutions to solve this problem.
1. Transparent screen protector with curved edge not covered
Disadvantage: The screen protector is smaller than Xiaomi Mi A1 whole screen and it can only cover the flat part and left the curved edge not covered. Anyhow, if you have a protective case which can hold the A1 front space by little, it can be a good makeup for this issue. Besides, it is not that easy to install as you need to align the screen protector with the phone flat screen by eyes. You need a screen protection applicator, the screen applicator makes perfect alignment for Xiaomi Mi A1 and screen protector. Cleaning cloth and sticky dust remover makes bubble and dust free application.
Advantages: High transparency and good touch compatible. As there is full glue under the whole screen part, it will keep the touch sensitivity.
2. Full screen protection protector for Xiaomi A1 Kit
Disadvantages: This full screen protection protector is with glue on the edge only. In the middle there is no glue. So it will make the screen less sensitivity for some flaw screen protectors. The flaw rate is about 1%.
Advantages: It is full screen protectors so you will not see white edge at all. And flosmall put a TPU transparent case for Xiaomi A1. Besides there is a lanyard so you can carry the phone anywhere you want.

If you don't mind it will get scratched from day 1 then I'd say it's doing pretty good at protecting your screen. Plus it won't have those Halo / Rainbow effect etc. kinds of problems.

Same, just thickness difference and Amazing H+ Pro is thinner and slightly curved at the edges.
