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..
Here's what ive tried from Amazon so far..

I tried the zagg and peeled it off within a week. The wet ones take away from the screens clarity and beautiful picture big time. Hopefully we find some that do the trick..

the wet one worked for a couple of months and now not giving me clarity. i wonder if any good option exists
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.

What's wrong with the glass screen protectors ? Those fit perfectly and do not ruin the feeling (like all plastic protectors do) ?

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
Looks like Spigen has updated their Nexus 5 product line. The NANO Glas.t and Glas.tr is now available for pre-orders on their website. :good:

Just saw the price on Spigen UK's site: £40. Wow. A little too steep for a screen protector isn't it?
Pre-ordered mine a week or so ago on amazon, just shipped via USPS today, I'll post a review when it gets here. :good:
I have replacement's coming for both. Haven't heard anything recently from spigen to say if it shipped or not. I'll give them until Dec 1 or so before I start hounding them. My original.t is still doing decent duty. IT was perfect until my grandson was wrestling with me last weekend and chipped the edge in 3 places. LOL
I'm not sure I get glass protectors anymore. I used to be a die-hard convert (I wouldn't even use the phone or pull off the factory cover until I had my protector ready) - but with gorilla glass being so resilient, unless you've got an extreme case they seem unnecessary and sometimes interfere (yellowing, distorted vision if you use polarized sunglasses, etc).
The issue really is that these are edge-to-edge so if you drop it, even with one of these on you won't prevent a crack (unless the fall is perfectly level) regardless of the hardness rating. It's the corners and sides you want to protect.

Dan, it's the smoothness/feel of glass that we adore while still protecting the original screen. If you don't care about the feel you might as well get a $10 screen protector.
If I accidentally put my phone in my keys pocket or slide the phone face down on a rough surface I'd rather easily replace a $30-$40 screen protector than spending a considerable amount of money to replace the panel/glass.

Don't get me wrong - I totally understand the appeal of glass, both in terms of clarity and feel, over some kind of plastic cover. My point is simply that the GG3 is *much* stronger / resilient than any kind of cover (to the point that dragging my keys or any "normal" situation wouldn't cause it issue) and that the cover, no matter what tensile properties, will never prevent cracking of the glass if the phone is dropped. Additionally, given that LG has finally figured out that separating the digitizer from the glass (a la iPhone) means that instead of paying $200 every time you crack the glass (as I have done, unfortunately, 4 times on my N4) - instead the phone works fine with cracked glass and eventually the glass prices should fall to something on the order of $30-40 installed. This is including the markup that the company I used to fix my N4 quoted me (e.g. retail pricing).
At that price point, why would you install a weaker, less efficient, optically distorting (all optical layers added on cause distortion, trust me I have a high level academic b/g in this field) when for the same price (or less if you're as prone to dropping your phone as I am) - you can have the glass replaced by the factory item for the same price or less? Plus the factory glass feels the best and has the most desirable features (oliophobic, hydrophobic, higher tensility, etc.) - no question.

Hi,
Just wanted to chime in on this

GG3 is strong, but it's still glass - I always find these demos with keys and knives kind of strange, because metals are typically softer than glass. The problem with any glass is - if you have your phone in your pocket with just a few grains of sand - you will get scratches - even on the Gorilla Glass. Gorilla Glass is hardened to prevent shattering and scratch-resistant, but not scratch-proof. So, yes I think glass protector is a great idea.
I've been looking into the issues people had with bubbles forming on their Nexus 5 - and then I noticed that my Nexus 5, has a slight imperfection, almost like a slight dimple on the bottom of the glass, near the notification LED. It's really hard to see and I only noticed it by accident when I had the phone laying on the window sill and saw slightly distorted reflection of trees outside. I am wondering if people with bubble problem are in fact suffering from similar imperfection on the Nexus's glass preventing complete adhesion.

This is exactly the issue. There is a slight deformity in the flatness of the Nexus 5 glass surface in that area (bottom right on the bezel), a barely perceptible depression.
The current Spigen glass protectors are just too thick/stiff to accommodate this variation in flatness on the Nexus 5 screen. The result is a "bubble" under the protector.
I am guessing the Nano, being thinner and hopefully more compliant, will adhere properly to the Nexus 5 surface. Maybe a more aggressive adhesive could help here too?
I'm holding off until I see some user reviews. Also, still waiting for my Spigen refund!
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)

Thanks for pic..i will definitely look for a glass thinner than 0.4..
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?
I came across this tempered glass screen protector from Orzly on Amazon UK. It costs less than £6 delivered.
Edit - price has now gone up
http://amzn.to/19VMPso
Orzly accessories get pretty good reviews and their tempered glass screen protector for the Nexus 5 was generally recommended on XDA before the price went up. Definitely worth a try at this price.
Looks like Nillkin now do one for £9.99 delivered. I have a Nillkin tempered glass protector on my Nexus 5 and it's great

Doesn't that tempered glass screen protector defeat the purpose of the glass screen and a screen protector? I would think by doubling the screen's thickness (essentially), you'd be making it harder thus easier to break on a drop. As for scratching, I'm not sure why people are so worried, it's Gorilla Glass 3. Having owned several GG products, it is very very herd to scratch the screen unless you plan on carrying sharp stones with your phone in your pocket while you are doing jumping jacks.

The tempered glass has a silicone adhesive on the backside of it that also acts as a buffer. And direct impacts that would normally break the screen are completely absorbed by the glass protector and it breaks instead. PET or other plastic screen protectors only prevent scratches. I would rather replace a 10-15$ screen protector than a 100$ screen.
Anyone knows a seller who ships to Europe?

Got mine today, ordered before the amazon price went up... Ive never used a glass screen protector before and didn't realise how bad plastic ones are.
It's a perfect fit, other that one spec of dust about 2mm from the edge you'd never know there was a screen protector on!
No camera or senior holes, just a speaker hole, but everything seems to work just fine.

I've been treating my moto g like a baby and having it as sole item in my pocket and it has micro scratches that you can see in bright sunlight. I've also seen a galaxy note 3 (gorilla glass 3) from a Samsung rep with an awfully scratched screen (admittedly in his pocket with keys)

I've written a review which should be up on Amazon within 48h. Basically I'll never buy another plastic screen protector again, this glass one is great for £9.99.
The clarity is fantastic, the feel is better than the original (imo) and the only disadvantage is the lack of cut outs for the camera.
Its also really easy to use swype or other similar keybaords now because my thumb doesn't stick.
I have found this Flexible Glass that might be intersted but it is a little expensive.
http://swiss-case.com/collections/by-device/moto-g/truglass-flexible-glass-for-moto-g.html
Anyone have any links to the Orzly one that has stock/is not being sold at an extortionate rate? Not willing to may £13 when I know it was available for £6 in the past.
Got the glass one in from hong Kong. Came extremely well packed and got it installed in about a minute.
It fits the phone perfectly and feels much better than then plastic protector that I had on the phone before hand. I am still trying to decide if it has made the touch screen less responsive, but I believe that it is more than worth it.
Any additional questions just let me know.

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 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:
