The Tab S2 Screen Protector Thread - Galaxy Tab S2 Accessories

Hi everyone.
Didn't see a thread for screen protectors for this tablet, so I thought I would start one. I have the 8.0 inch tablet, and a glass screen protector from amFilm that works very well; no issues with halo or anything like that. If you have one that is good for either size, please share so that we can be sure to all get the best products!!

I like mine without any screen protectors ☺

Bought the tech gear one for my 9.7, can't fault it and very nicely packed and supplied everything you need.

Seconded. I tried two of... I forget the brand; it's the #1 seller or Amazon and starts with an I and both had problems. Then I got a Skinomi and it's perfection :good:

Bought Omoton for my 8".
Best packaging of any I've used, very complete.
They also have 2 hinges that make putting it on much easier.
Had a few air pockets at first but with a some pressing and pushing toward the edges they have gone.
Only negative is that I have the telephone model and they didn't have a cut out for the top speaker.
As I don't think I'd hold this up to my heard and rarely use the phone (and when I do it's blue tooth direct to my hearing aids or by speaker) it's not a problem.
Shofar

I made a few purchase from china, 2.5D , cost me approximate USD 2.40 each.
does what it suppose to do, had it on since I've had my tab, I have the 4G version, the protector has all the cut out.

Any more updates on screen protectors? I have installed Tech Armor Ballistic Glass on 10 or so devices, always very pleased with them and their service, but they don't offer a Tab S2 yet.
Looks like Skinomi it is, appears pretty similar to the TA. Hopefully just as oleophobic.

I'm happy with my Skinomi. I don't notice fingerprints on it at all.

The Skinomi Glass arrived, it's a quality surface, but my application failed on one corner, got a ~ 1/4 inch bubble on the bezel. I've installed a lot of Tech Armors phone and tablet glass protectors, I can usually get it right 9 out of 10 times.
Tech Armor always sends a replacement if you mess it up, but they don't make a Tab S2 yet. Skinomi warranty says it does not cover incorrect installations. Ordered another one and also emailed Skinomi CS asking for another one anyway.
Not many cases for this tablet... Too bad Spigen or Seidio don't make one yet. The Tab S2 is just a little too thin naked for me to hold comfortably.

Is there other screen protector? I live in Austria and there are not these brands here...
Thank you!

Does anyone know if these Samsung branded screen protectors work on the Tab S2 8'?
Galaxy Tab 3 8 inches and Galaxy Tab 4 8 inches .
I can only find generic tempered glass screen protectors and I'd rather go with one of these two for now.

Thanks a lot. I'll see what I can get shipped to Romania.

Could someone confirm that the "old" and the new model's front panel are the same? Would like to buy a screen protector to a 813 model but i'm not sure if it's exactly the same on the front like the 810. Is the camera module, the light sensor, and the home button at the same position and are the same size? (i would assume so, but you never know)

If found that bubbles at the edges are almost always caused by the protector being to close to that edge. The only way to get rid of the bubble is to completely remove the protector and re-position it.

I had bought these: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/T815...2624571978.html?spm=2114.13010608.0.58.V2jpEY.
I applied one of them with no problem. I have two or three tiny bubbles that were caused by specks of dust that crept in despite my effort to prevent it.

[Q] Screen Protectors?

Straight fwrd. Looking for full coverage and at amazon,[is more recommended ]
I want to check some stuff before buying my note.
Links? Thanks!
I ordered one for the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 from Amazon and it should arrive today. I couldn't get an answer as to whether it would fit so I decided to take the chance. It's only a few bucks anyways.
I'll report back later on the fit.
I'm not sure what you mean by full coverage, but I sent a recommendation to DecalGirl to make a full skin for the back as well.

Eventually you will have to replace the screen protector. There are two schools of thought on this:
1. Buy really cheap screen protectors and replace them often,
2.Buy decent screen protector and you won't have to replace them too often.
I use photodon MXH, which are an "HD anti-glare" they provide some glare and fingerprint reduction, without sacrificing too much screen clarity. Everyone has a different opinion on which type to get (clear or matte), but my personal preference is the matte. I have had a Photodon MXH on my Cintiq for about a year and there are minimal scratches. So minimal that I don't notice. l'll be ordering a couple for the Galaxy note this weekend.

Screen Protector?
Just curious on why you want a screen protector for the Note 10.1. Is it scratch protection, glare reduction etc.
I've given up on screen protectors myself on all of my devices since gorilla glass and with the s-pen on the note 10.1 I would have thought a screen protector would impact the writing.

I would agree to the fact that gorilla glass is supposed to be immune to scratches but I wouldn't bet my note on that and be left without it for it to get fixed. Hence a nice protector is not a bad idea IMO.
I ordered one along with a simple case I found on ebay. As I am in the uk I wont have it until the 3d of september so k can't report back just yet

I would second Photodon screen protectors. I use it on my Lenovo X220T which also uses Wacom stylus and can confirm that it does note interfere with the stylus and is incredibly resilient. Photodon is also a pleasure to do business with and has excellent customer service.
Zagg is no good
I bought a zagg protector at best buy with the tablet.
Had to remove it because it was almost impossible to use the pen for drawing.
I have it on my phone and nexus 7, but for this particular tablet I can't recommend it.

Yes it is. If Best Buy had decent product knowledge they would know that the zagg sp won't work. Honestly, Zagg should know better too, but they are just out to make a buck.
I hope for your sake you returned it. If not you should because it really won't work with the pen.
It should also be noted that the Wrapsol and BestSkinsEver won't work either. Stick with the "hard" plastic dry install screen protectors. So far I'm having good luck with the matte rooCASE screen protector I got from amazon. I may wait on ordering the photodon.

These are the screen protectors I ordered. Install was easy enough, but I'm experienced at it. The fit is perfect.
I would attempt to return the zagg. Talk to a manager and show them how the pen sticks to it. Its not functional. If that fails, I would contact BB corporate and put a call into Zagg. But that's me. I hate wasting money. Like lighting fire to 30 dollars.

Sure thing!
So I contacted Photodon and they gave me the dimensions for their screen protector.
Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (#5832-01) is cut to 242.5 x 170.5mm (9.5 x 6.7”); 5/16” corner radius; camera location 130mm from left and down 11mm.
Screens diagonally less than 17” - We normally subtract 1/2mm from each dimension to make installation a little easier, so please indicate if you like your film cut “exactly” to the measurements that you specify.
Can somone confirm that this is the same as the note 10.1?

Based on those measurements the screen protector will be a good fit with the note. The only thing that jumped out is the camera hole is 11mm to the bottom of the hole, not center so I'm not sure where they measure to. The corner radius looks correct too.
I ordered a screen protector for a Galaxy Tab 2 from amazon, just so I would have something quickly and it fits the Note perfectly. I like the Photodon stuff too, but this one I ordered is pretty good so far. I'll eventually grab a Photodon though. I ordered a decalgirl backing skin last night, but I know that's not going to fit perfectly, but it will provide good scratch protection the the back plastic since I don't use a case.

Any tempered glass screen protectors available?

Is anyone aware of a tempered glass screen protector for the Note 10.1 2014? Since I began using them on my GS4, I got hooked and got one from Spigen for my iPad. Yes they add weight and are pricey but the performance is awesome. I really want one for my new Note. Thanks in advance.
did not find the one at Amazon and ebay ...if you find it somewhere do share the link...me too looking to buy one for my Note 10.1(2014)....
I'm definitely looking for one too. I got one for my note 3 and it's amazing. Especially since the tempered glass protectors are about the same price as regular ones.

Not quite tempered glass but Green Onions finally released a screen protector for the Note 10.1 2014. I use the same type of oleophobic screen protector on my note 3 and it really helps with grease. My Note 10.1 2014 sees way more constant touching from my fingers so I grabbed it asap.

Just got in my Green Onions oleophobic screen protector today. Same material as the one I use on my Note 3. Works perfectly fine with the pen for me and IMO more importantly, the oleophobic coating makes sure my fingers don't grease up my note as I am taking notes and using my tablet. I would've liked to go all out and gotten a tempered glass screen protector but none are out yet and I prefer oleophobic protectors anyways. 26 bucks is a little expensive but I think you get what you pay for.

Yes. It was somewhat difficult to align because of that. They give you a huge sheet to remove dust bedore installation but I also uses the steamy shower install method to be dust free. Took about 10 tries but the cover fits perfectly now.

My brother has never used any screen protectors on his devices and they all have pristine screens, I on the other hand have a few scratches on my S3 but that's only because I work in an Engineering environment where there are all sorts of materials flying about plus I no longer care tbh and use the phone even with dirty hands.
To be honest considering how much I use my phone its actually done pretty well, I have a 1cm long deep scratch and about 4 really light scratches that are barely noticeable and I've had the phone since release.
If your going to just use it in the house I would say you don't need one but you never know.
P.S. I don't think that really answers your question but still atleast you have something to think about haha
Found One
Well, a tempered glass screen protector finally hit Ebay (I can't post links yet but do a search for "Tempered Glass Explosion proof Screen Protector film for SAMSUNG Phones 2013 new" and you should find it). I know that Alibaba (seems to be an Asia-based import company) has listed tempered glass screen protectors for a month or so (if you wanted to import in bulk) and it was nice to finally find one on EBay for $17 (with shipping). I'm sure it will take a few weeks to get here but will let you know how it works once I get it.

Tempered glass screen protectors?

Can anyone recommend a good tempered glass screen protector for the note 10.1 2014 model? I can't seem to find many and the ones I do have scant and very mixed reviews at best... I've never gotten a tempered glass screen protector but I definitively want the added drop/shatter protection. The only thing that worries me is that if I accidently but a crap one, the S Pen responsiveness will be hindered or the protector will peel off etc.
Also, an antiglare tempered glass would be amazing but I've only found these to be in the plastic protectors. I could live without it to get better shatter protection, though so any suggestions on the tempered glass protector is appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
I bought one on dx.com but it seems they removed it from the page; the exact name was:

I like it very much, the tab feels natural and you can stop worrying about screen scratchs and stuff. Finger detection works perfectly. Pen functions very well with the exception of on thing: if you don't use the pen perfectly perpendicular to the screen near the edges(about .5 centimeter) the detection is moved millimeters from the actual pen tip touching the screen. This problem may be happening to all tablets and I don't know it because i wont take the protector off but it seems logic that the detection is affected that way with a some space added between the pen and the actual screen. Theoretically this could be fixed with calibration on the drivers or kernel or whatever but i am no expert.
Anyway, if you stay away from the corners and the screen borders you'll be very happy with the results a tempered glass has on this device.
I just wanted to throw my 2 cents in real quick. Ive put 4 diffrent ones on mine cause I messed up every one. Lol but make sure you turn tablet off and its not hot cause I made the mistake of playing on tablet then putting it on and a air bubble came where the screen was hot and I couldnt get out. I also messed up the others but when I did the tape on sides like a hinge it went on perfect. You can google it, there are alot of videos. I bought mine now on ebay. If you want a good one and want to spend some extra money there is ghost glass but I think its like 50 dollars. Mine was cheaper and they said it was anti fingerprint but I get fingerprints on it. They come right of with screen cleaner rag though. I just went to look on ebay but there not selling the one I bought anymore. Mine works fine with spen and fingers. I did buy the cheap one from china also, I would stay away from those. They always come broke, they will send another one but it takes some time to get.
Update.
Went to the store todsy and tried the galaxy note 12. It had the same problem i was describing above and without any protector so i am guessing it is a tablet problem and we can use protector without fearing it might affect the usage.
I use the techpro tempered glass with no problems
I got a cheap one from ebay too. It's a little thick, 4mm, and doesn't fit perfectly, probably 1-2mm gap around the edges, but the tablet works just as it did without it. I'm a heavy user of the s pen and i don't see any difference in offset. I didn't have any problem applying it...i used the home key hole to line it up.
I agree with the other poster that it does nothing to discourage fingerprints, but overall i'm happy with it and would use the same cheap ebay one again. I'd say give it a try.... $20 to try is better than $50 for the "good" one unless you really need a perfect and thin fit.
I just bought one on ebay a couple of days ago. Its called: TechPro Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014) Premium Tempered Glass Screen Protector Samsung. Itwas 21.99. Ill post pics once i receive the screen protector

I picked it up on Amazon for $19.95 with free 2 day shipping with the student deal they are currently running. It fir great and works fine but it's not as fingerprint resistant as Zagg Glass Shields I have used in the past. Of course Zagg doesn't make a Glass Shield for our Note so that's not really an option.
This is the one I got off Amazon, I'm sure you can find it again but it's perfect around all edges and screen works great as well. Paid like 20 something for it and wish I got a couple more.

Tempered Glass Screen Protectors

So I took a look on Amazon, and a few Tempered Glass Screen Protectors are showing up for the V20.
I had an issue finding a good one with my Note 4 due to the slight curve on the edge, I ended up with one from intelliArmor that is as good as I could find for edge-to-edge coverage.
And the Note 7 is even worse. I have read through their threads for weeks, and no one has been able to find a good glass screen protector that works properly with the curved edges.
Since the V20 does not have this issue, I woukd think the glass screen protectors for it would fit without any problem.
Those for V10 will work though V20 is a bit longer in length.
be careful. the top and bottom curves. Chris Chavez of phandroid discovered this.. there's a glass protector on amazon with a 1 star review, and it's him. he has pics. it looks awful. you have to get one that doesn't cover the 2nd screen or the LG logo on bottom. basically just a rectangle.

look at supershieldz. they have one on there that just looks like it covers the screen itself so it shouldn't bubble up.

Wow, that looks like crap. From all the pictures and videos of the phone, it did not look like there was any curves.

Yup, same with this one - https://www.amazon.ca/Protector-MoK...8&qid=1476918653&sr=8-1&keywords=lg+v20+glass
Going to return mine.
I can verify that there are curves. The Orzero 2 pack I got on Amazon (now unavailable) bubbles on the sides and top. I'm not sure tempered is gonna be an option for this phone unless it's barely covering the actual display and not the second screen at all.
Ordered directly from Nillkin. Takes a while from China but I've loved their TPGs on 6p and Note4

Good thing Amazon has a nice return policy. Sucks i already had taken off the og protector.
I ordered these for my wife an I. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01LKVLTQ6/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Will report back later, they arrive sunday
you need to get one that covers the screen only. the top and bottom of the phone have a slight curve that glass screen protectors won't stick to. i have tried 2 different brands and it is the same issue. gotta find one that covers the actual screen only.
looks like I am going to return the supershieldz I ordered a few days ago...the 1 star reviews are brutal
I want a glass cover that covers the ENTIRE screen including the front facing camera. I have one for my V10 and FF camera pics are fine.
WHY do they make it with a slight curve on the top and bottom? It looks like this will be like the Note 7 where no one could find a glass screen protector that fit right.

Probably for durability. Also smoothness to the user..
Fret not guys. Nexus 6 Shamu had curved glass at the top bottom and sides and took a while to get TG that didn't halo. Granted I think for Shamu the TG OEMs used thicker adhesive on the edges , in addition to matting. Took a few revisions to get it right. The Note7 never had time for revisions.
I have been emailing back and forth with MIME asking if they were going to make a tempered glass for this phone and they said absolutely "as long as enough people contact us to show interest".

Those for V10 will work though V20 is a bit longer in length.

I have a few left from my V10, it's a total rectangler glass, no cut out for the front cam, do you think this will work, i've only preordered my V20, haven't got it yet so I can't test it out.

Ya I think the only good reviews on those are from the ones that got it free to review. If I see comments saying they got it for testing to review I always move on.
has anyone tried the one from verizon or no what brand it is? i will be willing to pay a small fortune to big red if it fits well

Samsung screen protector for S10+

Has anyone been able to purchase the stock original screen protector that came with the phone? I swear I saw it briefly on Samsung Canada site under accessories page but it's no where to be found now.
Stock protector feels so smooth once you applied a oleophobic coating on it! Not to mention perfect fitment for the phone.
Part number: ETFG975CTEGCA
Does UK, US or other country Samsung sells the stock protector?
Thanks

I believe they're 18.99 for Samsung UK (ET-FG975CTEGWW). Samsung US has a supply of them, but they are not accessible via sales.
It is 19.99 here in the States.
I was able to purchase one but not going to get it shipped till 4/5.

Got myself a Gadgetshieldz screen guard for the S10+ when I ordered my skin from them. It’s a self healing one and no scratches till now and most importantly it works fine with the fingerprint scanner. This one looks much better than the actual Pre-installed Samsung screen guard. The screen and guard cost me only around 10$ including shipping.

To each his own I guess, I hate self healing skins as they have a orange peel finish and it drags/not smooth. The Samsung original one is PET material, not as smooth as glass but much better than self healing protector.

I'm using the screen protector for a while, No orange peel effect. And it is not a glass protector, It's a plastic protector as you know it's more smooth than glass.

How do you apply the oleophovic coat? Where can I find it?
You get 2 protectors (3-5 would've been nice) and they are made in Korea just like the phone. The packaging mentions shock protection, dunno how valid that statement is!
Otao Screen Protector for S10 Plus
I always liked the GLASS Otao Screen Protectors so I thought I would try the plastic one when it came out on Amazon. To Be honest, I was very pleasantly surprised.
Easy to install (Dry install and not wet) and there were no bubbles or any issue after I installed. I have been using it with a Case (Ringe Crystal Fusion) for about a week and I am very happy with it. Fingerprints work fine with it.
2 Screen Protectors - under $6.00 - Great Price! LINK
I peeled off my screen protector, the fingerprint is instant now. And the feel is much better.

Do these have the same cutout for the front camera or is the whole corner cutout?
Saw someone say that the whole corner was cutout.
It is the whole corner cutout.

I've been using these for the last 3 devices. No issues. On my S10+ the top keeps trying to lift. I'm on my 4th one now and about to give up. They install perfect reach time but after a few days you can see it starting to lift near the top bezel. No case touching it. Anyone else having these issues?

I have the same issue without a case as well. If you look closely you'll see that there is still a thin strip of adhesive keeping it dust tight but still lifting around the edges.
Are there any dry application screen protectors that cover the entire screen like Samsung protector? Those case friendly protectors look weird since they leave margins on the display

Same here, i have been using them since Galaxy S8+, never had any issues, once fitted it stayed good until damaged or removed. Now for S10+ i've had 3 replacements under warranty as it is lifting up or peeling of as they call it, and it is not even close to the edge, i have another replacement waiting to be fitted so i will try to put more glue maybe? as it looks like there is just about in the tube, I am so tempted to remove it and have just natural screen without any protectors but it is an expensive phone
All sold out here
