Sorry if this is in the wrong spot, mods, feel free to move it if it is.
I think I've tried, what seems like, almost EVERY tempered glass screen protector on Amazon (6 or 7 different ones) and every single one has "halo" around the entire screen (doesn't adhere).
Has anyone found one that actually fits? If so, please post a link to it for me
I ruined the, flimsy film, one that came with the phone.... I've ordered something similar to get me by until there is a tempered glass one that actually works.....But if it's like the Moto X Pure, it's been out 10 months now and still doesn't have one that works correctly.

I ordered a case that comes with Tempered Screen protector , Love the Case but dislike the Screen protector doesn't cover the whole screen....
I bought it from here
http://m.ebay.com/itm/322188778666?varId=511115022449
And kinda looks like the one in the image attachment.
I believe it is too early in the product's life cycle to be able to find a tempered glass screen protector that will fit the Axon 7's curved glass edges.
Those edges are what's giving the issue here.
I'm going to use either a Skinomi protector for now. I've installed them before.
A good source for screen protectors is: http://www.protectionfilms24.com/
They're based in Germany but handle several very decent brands including Vikuiti which are a still film type protector. I have used those in the past and they're very strong and durable.
Prices range in US dollars from $4.45 to $25.65 incl. shipping for the Axon 7
Here's a glass protector they sell for $6.68 called the BROTECT® AirGlass® Premium Glass Screen Protector for ZTE Axon 7

I ordered the Brotect Air Glass and received it 2 weeks ago. I removed it within 5 mins. It creates the halo effect around the sides. They say it's Glass but honestly, it just looks and feels like your usual plastic ones that you get on eBay and stuff. I've also tried 3 different Tempered Glass and no luck either. You're right, it's still early. I used Ghost Armor about a month ago to have it custom cut but also ended up removing that too since I couldn't stand the rubbery TPU feel anymore.
Anyone tried those ?
With those gold/black edges, i'm wondering if those parts aren't on the curved sides !

That was one of the 3 I tried. I ordered 1 from Amazon and 1 from Aliexpress thinking they would be different.... Both are the same. Don't bother getting it cuz the adhesive is only on the sides and doesn't even stick properly especially since the sides curve down. It constantly slides around and doesn't even stay center. It doesn't even adhere to any of the glass part either and it's elevated. So when u press down on certain areas, u can actually hear it click. Worst of all, since it's elevated, you lose some of the clarity of the screen too.

I tried two different brands, one was Skinomi, and they're SO exact cut that if you squeegee them too much, it'll stretch them to where they hang over the edges (or maybe they're just made that way). As soon as you put your case on, they'll start peeling off in a few places. Or if you stick it in your pocket a few times, the edges eventually snag on your pocket and start to peel off.
I went with the stiffer, thin plastic ones until I find a good tempered glass one.
You might want to try this one: http://goo.gl/Gu4plV
Might not be the best, but forless then 1$ and free shipping, you might give it a try.
Saw that there where other on Ali too, hope you'll find one !

any updates on a tempered glass screen protector with little or no halo effects?
I wouldn't even mind a high quality film protector like the Spigen one that I have on another phone due to the same halo issue... but they don't make one for the Axon 7.
The Axon 7 is like little orphan Annie... nobody wants to make accessories for it.
thanks!
Sadly!! I have used Skinomi, very glittery. Spoiled 2.I can't recommend at all. And bought one in Germany all bull****!!! All don't fit and stick well!!!

I've tried 3 or 4 others, still have the Halo.....I have the one with the black frame around it sitting on my desk at home. It supposedly doesn't "halo", but only adheres around the edges (not the entire screen), so I'm holding off until the one I'm using now starts peeling off more.
On a side note, my sons Galaxy S6 has the exact same issue. I've tried 4 different screen protectors and they all "halo" too. So the Axon 7 has an upper-class, snobby sibling with the same issue :highfive:
I tried the one with the black boarder from Amazon people seem to been having luck with. Sucked. Fell off after about 3 hours. Also had very bad halos, but since boarder was black, you couldn't see them. The screen protector would get caught on my pocket when I tried to put the phone away. And no sticky stuff in the middle, so there were big rainbows on the screen. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone!
I have ordered this one.

Had the same problem with the note 4. The 2.5d screens or whatever they call it are rather annoying. Took me a few tries to find one i was satisfied with. Looks like thia phone is going to be harder to find since its not as popular as the Samsung name.
Film not glass
I've tried a couple different glass screens with the same result the rest of you have found. Halos and skimpy/poor fit.
This one is a film but so far it's the best I've found. Stays put, covers it all and the edges stay down after a couple hours as it "settles in" :fingers-crossed:

I guess I have bad luck. Im looking for screen protectors that actually fit the entire dimensions of our HTC one's. Tried 3 diff brands on Amazon all have clear clarity but none of them fit. They always have gaps between the phone and screen. Im not really a fan of the wet screens guards, i.e (armorshield, zagg, skinomi). Any suggestions..

I bought a cheap pack of 2 at a local accessory store, when I get home I will check the brand, as the fit is almost perfect (there is maybe a 3/4-1 mm gap at the bottom) and it has held up for me pretty well so far.

Of course, now that I'm home, I can't find the packaging. lemme see if they list their brands online, and I'll keep looking for the package.
Have you tried the original HTC ones (SP P910)?
I've bought them on eBay for about 5eur,a pack of two.
They didn't arrive yet, but I've bought from the same user for my Incredible S and they were original and good fit.

Tech Armor
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BO2OU90/ref=oh_details_o07_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I bought this Tech Armor 3 pack on Amazon. I messed up the first one like always but the second one went on perfectly. For the first day or two it was rather sticky feeling but after a bit of break in time/use it feels just like the stock glass screen. I've been using it for about a month and there's been no peeling, bubbling, or scratches. It's basically edge to edge coverage. There's maybe a 1 mm gap at the bottom of my phone with the top flush so you could split the difference and have almost no gap all the way around.
For $6 shipped they're a good deal. I don't notice these at all and I'm not a fan of screen protectors in general. Since I haven't found a case I like for The One at all and I wanted protection for putting my phone face down when I'm at work these fit the bill for cheap. I just ordered a DevilCase bumper and back cover and I'll likely continue to use these covers even if I like the bumper combo.

I think I'm going to try the glass ones. I just hope they don't mess with the touch sensitivity etc.
I use a mime ghost on my one and there is no negative effect whatsoever.
// sent from my phone //
Note on the product page for touch sensitivity
"Please note system software 1.29.709.12 or newer is required for use with our HTC One Ghost Glass"
Spigen, Spigen, Spigen. Spigen all the way! The best clarity and perfect fit for my htc one (and all other phones for that matter)
I purchased a Nillkin red hard cover for my One, solely to add grip after a few slips, which come with a Nillkin screen protector that I decided to try. Applied really easy and has an excellent fit and the feel aint too bad. I'm not a fan of screen protectors generally but decided to try this one and it's perfectly fine.
Once you go glass, you never go back
Tempered Armor just launched their Galaxy S3 tempered glass screen protector December 2nd. Saw a review video for their Note 3 protector and absolutely loved it (Link if curious: http://youtu.be/Qzhst5jrBtI). I picked it up the same day it released.
It came in two days ago and of course I install it immediately. At first, I thought great, the adhesive is doing it's thing. Then, once I took the blue plastic cover off, the disappointment set it. At a nearly uniform distance completely around the protector, the adhesive doesn't stick. I had used their packaged microfiber and their packaged isopropyl wipes for the install. Thought cool, maybe it will take a few days. And fast forward to today, it still looks the same.
If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. I love how it feels; I've always hated those crappy plastic protectors.
I reached out to Tempered Armor via Twitter and got no help other than them claiming it was user error and/ or the alignment is off. I sent them a Dropbox link with pictures of the alignment and they came back with the protector won't work if it is "off a hair".
Here's our Twitter conversation: https://twitter.com/temperedarmor/status/413801200866574336
Here's the Dropbox link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/i6wur2j57ql99c7/qyw6TAEb_y
So if you are thinking about ordering one, make sure you have a micron microscope to get it aligned correctly.
Meh,
I have had similar problems with SProtectors. I do believe that the glass on most S3's have a slight curve at the outer edge.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
Whenever I press down on the outside edge, it feels like the glass protector doesn't even try to stick. I feel like the adhesive wasn't properly applied to the protector before shipping.
What really got me was when customer support mentioned if it was "off a hair" it wouldn't sit right. How are you going to sell a screen protector that has a fault tolerance in alignment of a width of a hair?
Typical lack of customer service or care. This why I try to support companies like, Anker, zero lemon, Amazon. They actually care about quality and their customers. As info,
We have 3 galaxy S3 in my home and all have a slight curve downward at the edges.

I love tempered glass screen protectors. But why spend that much money on that one. I got mine off Ebay and they look way better than the one posted in the OP. The one I have sticks all the way around.
here's an example of one... (not sure which seller I bought from. it's been a several weeks since I ordered.)
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Premium-Rea...l_Phone_Screen_Protectors&hash=item2c779dd20f
I knew of the owner of the company from my days as an iPhone modder. Thought he would be a bit more "in touch" with the community and more helpful than "nope, you broke it. lalalalala can't hear you".

The one I have is .3, so just a bit thinner. on all of the cases I have used, it doesn't interfere with the case. I have used it with the Otterbox Commuter case and it looks fine. Right now, I'm using it with a rubber/plastic case that I found at Walgreen's of all places. There is usually a small gap between the edge of the screen protector and the case. I'll see if I can get a picture up
EDIT
Here's mine with a case and the glass screen on it (sorry pic quality is bad, taken with an Ipad, of course)

Whenever i put a screen protector on my s3 the touch screen glitches, key presses al over the screen like whenever i press the app drawer it opens my notification bar, whenever i type something it scrolls up,so does that have anything to do with the quality of the screen protector?
Hello Folks,
I know there are loads of screen protector threads out there but none of them are recent for the MotoX.
I have had an XtremeGuard Protector on my X for a few months, but the gummyness, orange peel and lack of screen sensitivity is killing me.
What are some good current options that are $15 or under ?
Thanks,
Pete
I'm currently using the SUPCASE Screen protector that came with my case: has everything I need to get it on once and only once(even comes with a lint remover film). Looks and feel great. I don't know what you mean by 'gummyness though, the only screen protector I would describe that has a gummy-like feel(especially when I pinch with my fingernail is the Skinomi brands.

I'll second these. I had the ArmorSuit and it was terrible. These are cheap, durable and don't negatively affect the screen.I've been using one for over 2 months and it still looks fine.

I bought a couple of the Mimeusa.com glass screen protectors, one for my wife and another for myself. Installed mine first, its a little different installing such a stiff protector, luckily i was able to lift it back up easily a couple times to adjust the positioning.
The wifes I installed a couple hours after, and it felt like it gave me more problems. didn't want to get positioned right, but eventually I got it lined up well.
The next day it fell off in her car while she was driving and got covered in dirt and dust on the adhesive side.
Mine is still on, after 2 weeks of use;
The texture is awesome! i hate most screen protectors, but this is glass and feels so good to the touch. you hardly notice its there.
It hasn't taken and scratches, and it does feel like fingerprints are less noticeable than on the bare screen.
I don't have a case of my X yet, ordered a bumper from amazon, but its not here yet.
I feel that the protector gathers small fibers easily at the edge. there are a couple of very small fibers that have worked there way just under the edge of the glass. They are hardly noticeable, especially when the screen is on.
I have not seen any new accumulation since the first few days, so maybe its more prone to catching the fibers in the hours / day after installation. I would advise avoiding pockets for 24 hours after installing this product if you can.
I will probably use this screen protector until it chips/breaks/gets too scratched up, and then go naked screen for the rest of the phones life.
If you are intending to spend $15 for a screen protector, might as well get a tempered glass one. I'm using this one: http://www.amazon.com/i-Blason-Motorola-Ultra-Thin-Tempered-Protector/dp/B00E0CUP18/
If you installed it correctly the first time, it should stay stuck and without any bubbles.

For those who have the glass protectors, do u feel they are worth the extra money compared to a good clear protector like the halo ? Do they cause interference with cases ?

I would just like to throw out my support for Liquid Armor. I use it on all of my touchscreen devices, and have never had a scratch on a screen since, and it feels just like glass, without anything on it. The best part is that the one bottle can be used for several screens. Though if you don't use it in a couple months, the stuff will harden in the nozzle of the bottle, making it more difficult to use.

+1 on this stuff. Been using it on my last 5 phones in the family. Especially great since the wife and I usually are yearly on replacement devices

Disclaimer: I posted this in a couple other threads, but I wanted to try and post it where I know we've been discussing tempered glass screen protectors.
Here's some pictures of the redesigned i-Blason protector. As you can see, there is now a cutout for the proximity sensor. The corners also fit the Moto X perfectly (their old design fit perfectly too). Very happy I finally have a protector that FITS and where the proximity sensor won't be blocked! I liked the i-Blason until I had started having proximity sensor issues because I had dropped it several times, and it never once cracked, unlike the MIME, which cracked the very first time I dropped it.

I appreciate everyone help...
For those who have the glass protectors, do u feel they are worth the extra money compared to a good clear protector like the halo ? Do they cause interference with cases ?
What do u mean expansible sumonmolla ?

i have tempered glass on my moto X ( mimeusa.com/product/moto-x-ghost-glass-screen-protector/ ) since january.
it was very easy to install and the feel is wonderful. my only complaint is that when you drop your phone, it can crack. better a crack on the protector than a scratch on the device, right? my phone has been pretty suicidal lately, what w/ jumping off tables, so it has accumulated many cracks on the protector. i am replacing it (with same ghost glass) and also buying a bumper case ... that may make a difference in the life span of the protector.
this is my first glass protector and yes i like it. on previous devices i used zagg screen protectors and was VERY HAPPY with them, but when i ordered their protector for the moto X, i found that they must have screwed up on the device specs, as the film didn't even cover the entire viewing screen. UNACCEPTABLE! i will not go back to their products.
I had the MIMEUSA and was very happy with the feel of the MIMEUSA, but it didn't fit properly. The corners were too squared and extended over the screen. The edges were also suppose to be beveled to prevent chipping but mine seemed like they were beveled out, leaving a lip on the glass. This all led to the edges chipping and eventually a larger break.
I ordered the i-Blason to try it and am very happy. The fit is perfect, its quite a bit thinner than the MIMEUSA, and it feels just as slick and smooth as the MIMEUSA and the glass screen. I would recommend the i-Blason over the MIMEUSA. And the i-Blason is only $17 on Amazon making it about the same price as the high quality plastic protectors.

+1. The Power Support protectors are very good. Their 15% off right now as well, till March 21st.
Okay. Here it is. We can start the debate soon about which screen protectors actually work on this phone without Halo and bubble issues. It is always an issue with these curved glass screens but there are always 1 or 2 screen protectors that people can get to actually work. Please post which ones you have purchased and how well they worked.
Posting without pictures is not helpful to anyone.
Ordered the ones through Amazon from Mr. Shields and the case/protector from HanhuaTech. The Mr. Shields order gave me 3 and all 3 were nothing but bubbles. Never used their stuff before and highly disappointed. The latter was a nice case, but the screen protector has a black ring around the edges and is impossible to line-up so it doesn't cover the edges of the display area. No bubbles though. Just cut off part of my screen. Still looking. The Otterbox Defender does not include a screen protector.
I tried those Mr shield protectors with my v30 and they were garbage.
The supershieldz worked well with my v30 but the v40 version has that stupid black border which means it only has adhesive at the edges and will have the rainbow effect
Guess we're all screwed for a bit. For what this thing costs, I refuse not to have the tempered glass protector, but they all have the black ring or bubbles. Early adopter blues I guess.
Curved screens, like the V40 (and pretty much every flagship phone) have tend to have poor tempered glass adhesion, in my experience. It seems they all utilize only adhesive along the outer edge, leading them to come unstuck extremely quickly and easily. All of the reviewed models on Amazon, likewise, have this problem. Hopefully a good one will come out for this phone at some point reasonably soon.
I know that T-Mobile tried to sell me an overpriced one when I purchased my phone, though I'm not certain they had any in stock yet. If no models come out that stay stuck pretty well, I will take purchase one of theirs, as they will replace it every time I come in the store.
Be patient and wait for IQ Shield LiQuidSkin, best on the market for curved screens. Available mid Nov.
I quite enjoy the bodyguardz one I got. It's aluminosilicate like gorilla glass and does have the black border, however I've seen 0 rainbowing. Also comes with lifetime replacements which I will probably thoroughly abuse.
I just ordered a set right from their website. It didn't list that it wasn't in stock and ready to ship, so we'll see!
Don't rush! The earlier you get it, the bigger the risk it's not properly tested yet (especially when it comes to curved screens). This early after release, you're the guinea pig...
While I'm waiting for "IQ Shield LiQuidSkin" I ordered "PULEN Screen Protector"... I'll keep you updated!
I ordered the Poetic tempered glass screen protector. Works like a charm. 3 Days and still sticking no problem. No halo, rainbow effect, etc. Absolutely loving it. Fit is amazing and the feel is as good as the original glass, if not slicker. I'm using it with a Ringke Fusion-X case and they work perfectly together. The screen protector is case friendly and the gap between the glass and case is very minimal.

I know PULEN hasn't got very good reviews, but for now, while waiting for LiQuidSkin, it's all good, fits almost perfect. Nothing I recommend though. The black frame covers a faction of the visibility of the screen (left and right side)
But totally OK. Let's see if it falls off before I get my LiQuidSkin?

I was just looking at the poetic glass on Amazon and can't seem to find a good enough review that specifies it the tempered glass fully seals to the device or only seals around the edges of the glass?
Just heard from Whitestone email support that they do not currently plan on producing Dome Glass for the V40... real shame. Maybe some other V40 owners can chime in to pique their interest?
I was also just looking at the Poetic before I came over here, and also wonder if it is in fact full-adhesive. Anyone?

I've been looking at that but but I'm in high doubts it's full adhesive
I just installed the Poetic tempered glass from Amazon and it has a massive rainbow effect. There clearly isn't any adhesive in the middle. Until someone makes a decent one it will have to do.

Dang, it seems so difficult to find good tempered glass screen protectors. Poetic seemed promising but glad you confirmed it is not full adhesive, since so many brands don't specify.

Update!
Amid medium level reviews on Amazon, I have to say I'm surprised this pulen sp is working so well. Some kind of drier than normal glue, covers the whole sp, and if you place it perfectly, it's actually a very nice sp. The black frame slightly covers (1/10 of a mm) of left and right sides, but it really doesn't take away anything, not even the screen off blue notification around the frame. I'm not sure about the physical strength though. I'm a very careful person, never really drop my phone. No rainbow! No dust stuck around the borders. Right now I'm not sure I will order the liQuidSkin? I'm happy with this one

I'm using Key liquid glass screen protector. I can't stand the film protectors so decided to use this. It's a wipe on application, scratch resistant, 9H superior hardness rating, water proof and anti bacterial. Just clean the screen with the included cleaning wipe than apply the liquid screen protector via the included wipe. Let sit for about 5 minutes and you're set.
Suggest me a good quality screen protector to get for the OnePLus 11 which I'm going to get on 7th Feb!
As always for, a real good quality is glass screen protector from Aliexpress, 2pcs for around 10-15USD, glue and UV light.
I have used cheap chinese glass protectors for my Iphone 12, OP7Pro, OP 8T and always was very happy with them.
The only other and real alternative for me is a synthetic sapphire glass protector for ~100USD. All the other protector between them are pretty much the same in the long run.

Isn't that the UV and glue protector sticks completely like a superglue and it's very hard to remove it, saw some videos about them.
I've seen the Sapphire glass protector it is great but too expensive for me! I've my eyes on Spigen, Gadgetshieldz screen guard, and ESR but I want a user experience so I can buy one for my phone.

Nice, I'll check out some tempered glass brands, or else I'm going to get a film protector from Gadgetshieldz because the tempered glass on a curved-display phone will break more easily than on a flat-screen phone! I've seen reviews on drop tests where the glass breaks because the case will not fully cover the curved edges.
I don't use screen protector.
After 4 years using a 6T, i just got a very thin line only visible under light and close inspection. Moreover, a 45Kg dummbell fell exactly over the screen phone (it was on the floor) and....crystal clear, not even a single mark or damage/deformation on the screen. ¿The almost invisible scratch? Carrying both phone and keys toguether, or even worse but it's plausible. I also owned the Nexus 4/5 and Moto Z Force and don't remember any scratch, at least no one to be concerned.
It's not the answer to you question but just a suggestion, don't spoil the touch/slide feeling, cleariness, and clean look of a naked screen. Of course you can get one of those stupid pseudo-"tempered glass" 9H (it's actually cheap polymer plastic), ... or a simple plastic one wich will be always shady due to have dozens of fingerprints (it's oil after all) without remedy) and will left a yellowish tint over the surface of the crystal (this is a fact, not my subjective impression).
Oh, i remember my Nexus 4, i also thought screen protector was a must, well after a year, i gor rid of it (the tint left by the plastic was there) and never looked behind.
And now we (I) have a more shadows fae beyond like turning a 799$ high end phone (Apple/samsung/former Huawei/etc consider OP10 not a high end (i don't want to say flagship) a mid range ) in a 206g brick.
Bumper case is another story. Now using the 1+ Sandstone and the same issue as with OP6T again, ****, the slider is almost unreachable to be operated propertly. I have been using a generic silicon case while i was waiting the new case, and slider hole was fine, hey, 1,89$ in AliExpress. I just bought it (the same) from Amazon for 10€, of course returned it with a random excuse when i got the new case. I will probably order half a dozen from Ali just to try.
I wass expecting the horror with ColOrxygenOS, but for the moment i havent suffered a stroke

I've never used screen protectors either. I've got 2 front pockets - one for my keys and one for my phone. It's not that hard. Anything that would actually damage the screen would shred the protector and damage your screen anyway. I've never had any scratches on my screens and a screen protector is not going to save you from an unlucky drop. I really don't see the point.
Stopped counting how many times I dropped my phone and it was saved by a glass screen protector - I would probably say dozens of time and I usually go through 2-3 protectors on each phone in average, depending how long I can live with a look of cracked protector before replacing it.
With typical, accidental drops the additional glass layer absorbs the impact and the phone just bounces of the impact area. In my personal experience for last 10 years with HTC M7, M9, Oneplus 7 Pro, Oneplus 8T and iPhone 12, I have never encountered a drop forceful enough to penetrate the protective layer and damage the actually screen glass under it.
Sure, it is possible but never happened to me when dropping phone from front jacket pocket heights, pants pocket height, going in or out of the car with a phone in the hand, pushing the phone from shelf or the bathroom sink etc.
Last week I removed my uv glass screen protector from OP7Pro that I was preparing for a trade in and it looked perfect and if I would want to trade it locally I would get a slightly better price for a mint condition screen rather than a used one for 5 years.
I've had pretty good luck with film over the years and the ONLY reason I started using them is they don't attract finger prints as bad as glass.

For some reason I started using tempered glass ones for the year I had an iphone 12 pro. I broke like 4 of them, it was ridiculous. I stopped using them after a few months and never did manage to hurt the screen, even though I broke the "protectors" left and right. And I use my phones in industrial applications (Im an industrial maintenance tech), they take some abuse.
Fwiw this phone comes with a film protector already applied out of the box. I haven't removed it yet and it's been fine so far.

Exactly. I'll leave the pre-installed screen protector on until it looks like ****. But when it's time to take it off, I won't replace it. Did the same with my 6T.
I see here people have said the 10 pro screen protectors fit, now that a lot more people have the phone has anyone tried this with any tempered glass ones with success?
Any OnePlus 10 Pro screen protector will work on the 11 since the screen (in physical size) is the same.
I use film protectors for a couple of years now and pretty happy with them
SmartDevil on aliexpress released good film protectors for a fair price

4 days ago I ordered the SmartDevil glass since it seems to be a chinese copy of Whitestone glass with the entire bundle (minus the glue foams for the bracket).
I ordered also 2 no name glass screens on 9th of February but it still in shipping, no idea if it will be delivered.
I was curious about the SmartDevil bundle so we will see how much does it actually helps and what is the quality of the bracket.

Yes, tempered glasses always break often so as I said before a film protector and a case covering the edges of the screen is enough for protection!
