Orzly with lights out - HTC 10 Accessories

Bought the orzly black for my black /dark htc 10, fitted perfectly.. I'd asked before if there were cutouts for the buttons and was told No!
Well ...... There is and it looks a bit stupid in the light, i almost want to colour them in a bit to hide them..
If you want perfection like me, this isn't it, but. It is the only tempered screen protector that fits full screen and has 100% coverage,if you have the original layout then fair enough, just I don't
Just a shame about the buttons.
PS: I have a mod which turns off the lights and moves back to recent and vice versa, so seeing cut outs for them is a downer.

I finally got the Orzly for my 10 and have to agree with you that the cut outs are weird.
They make it look very cheap and knock off like, I am OK with it but would prefer something else (though unsure what else would be better).
Everything does line up a treat though, impressed by that.

I'm considering ordering one of these, can you post a photo of the buttons?

Not at the moment, will do tomorrow. Looks decent, but those cut outs lol, really bad. Should be all black.

Yea it fits very well, possible to put something over or under them, if it's over them then it would have to be hard wearing as it'd soon rub off from pressing the buttons.
As far as I know there are no tempered glass edge to edge covers, I've looked long and hard, some have images showing their protectors as if they do, but they don't.
This is the closest. A marker may work but it'd be temporary.
Either that or embrace the lights, personally I swap back and recent which is why its such a killer for me. Guess I'll have to get used to it. Should have painted them before fitting.
Here's my mod for swapping the buttons.

It seems there are two versions and I'm not sure what's meant by cutouts - do you mean actual holes in the glass? My Orzly cover has transparent squares in the black paint over the button areas and it doesn't look that bad to me.

Yes they are what I'm referring to, they do look alright, however as I've said before I switch my buttons so back is recent and vice versa, I've also turned the lights from the buttons completely off so it looks right, these cut outs look terrible for my needs. Not the end of the world but definitely a blemish on a what is otherwise a a sleek looking cover.

My Orzly glass comes with the cutout in the tempered glass. And the oily film is visible beneath the tempered glass except when the screen is ON. But the main issue is the rainbow effect it displays allover the screen whenever we encounter a white colour in screen. I regret purchasing this tempered glass.

Steinheil Ultra Crystal * screen protector review*

Hi all since i have received my screen protector and installed it today i thought i would leave a small review on it so people could make there minds up on what they wanted.
Whats in the pack:
*who screen steinheil ultra crystal screen protectors.
*one cloth
*one plastic spatula for bubbles
*one sticker pack to remove dust
Application:
The application of the protector was very easy, no sprays needed just the usual back and front sticker.
fit and finish:
The fit is very good with just a hole for the speaker and home button everything else was covered.
as for the finish it is really good from normal viewing distance but if you look very close you can see small imperfections. ( these imperfections are to small for me to actually complain about but i mention it because everyone is different )
The material it self is very good, and does seem to do what the box said it does, it is very clear and there is no orange peel effect or rainbow.
Once on you can not notice it at all.
well ive taken some shots so that you all can see, viewing angles, smudging , macro shots of imperfections and also color representation.
Enjoy and hope this helps

Nope I have the Ultra Olephobic one not glossy at all. One thing for sure though someone needs to tell them to place their numbers correctly.
They have back written on 1 (back side down) and front marked as 2 (front side up)
I don't know if that makes sense basically if you follow the numbers you are going to stick it the other way around. Which is what I did....
wasted a completely good screen *rant over*
Other then that quiet happy with it.
^
That's what I did as well haha
I found that the Ultra Crystal picks up fingerprints so easily, and its hard to move your finger across the screen smoothly after a while.

Oh wow! yeah. because it's glossy and glossy screen protectors don't do well with swiping gesture. I may as well tell that matte screen protector is better at swiping but worse for the amoled screen.

Just read your review, i think they updated the pack because it has a front and back sticker.
Also i think we need to give the screen protectors some slack, they will never be as good as the screen because they don't have the reasurch and development budgets.
I have not got any white parts but its only second day, also you get two so if one is damaged just use the next.
As for fingers sticking, its ok if you keep cleaning the screen and lets be honest we all wipe the screen everyday so our baby look nice.
But it is not as smooth as the glass no, bringing me back to my point its just plastic and will never be as god as the glass it covers.
Touch sensitivity is the same for me.

Thanks pal.
Yeah mine looks exactly like yours! With those words Front and Back and those numbers! Still they are really confusing as different SP makers use different notations for referring to the adhesive side.
Anyway I'm happy with how transparent it is but the fingerprints make my phone look ugly! I clean it every day.
Yeah and the touch sensitivity is really awesome.
But I doubt I'd go with this SP the next time...

I received one of these with my SGP Neo Hybrid case, and I am using it right now. But I have a question, doesn't it covering the whole screen including the front camera bother you?I actually tried cutting mine so that the camera and proximity sensor is not covered (could could not do a perfect job, but that is not relevant).
I had ordered a SGP ultra clear before this which looked better, and had the correct holes for front camera etc. But the Ultra Clear is supposedly thinner and got a scratch, so I had to switch to the Crystal once my case arrived.
^^No it doesn't bother me. I am having no problems with sensors or front camera. Pictures are as clear as without protector and sensors are working as they should.
thanks for review, I have to choose between crystal and olephobic
Thanks for that i think ill go for the olephobic friom reading a few reviews it appears to be the best one available.
Thanks for the review. I have ordered a Neo hybrid case so I will be getting one of these with it.
Why didnt they include the camera lens protector anymore for the SGS2 on the ultra oleo?
I like it great product

Personal i never use my front facing camera, as for the sensor it is working normal.
However i guess you need all the clarity possible for video chat so a hole would be preferable in that case.

already got thanks nice review
I only got one of these and it came with no instructions. Just the "FRONT" and "BACK" stickers. Problem is, FRONT says "1" and BACK says "2", but I would have thought if BACK was the one you wanted to remove first, but why does it say 2.. So, which side is the side that you stick down on the screen??
Since I only got one of these I don't want to take a gamble.
Hi, i ordered one of these , aint arrived yet but coming from korea im in UK, thanks for the review, ya 2 for stocky side to phone, does seem odd but lucky i have looked here may have mistaken that
anyone compared this to any other protector ? i want something that aint gonna lose much cause we know how good the screen on this is and would be shame to hide it

Gotta Be a Better Screen Protector . . .

This is my third one, and I don't care for it. Two Skinomi's, and a TG I loved, but it covered the notification light (top & bottom black borders).
Anybody found one that is perfect? Or, did vendors give-up on this phone?

My Verizon Tempered Glass Screen protector, which I installed back in May, has been perfect. It looks like you're from the U.S given you came from the Sprint M8 so you can pick one up locally. They have zero lifting and covers the entire visible screen, both horizontally and vertical. Highly recommend it.

You might also check the newer Orzly 2.5D ProFit tempered glass. I haven't personally tried it yet, but has great reviews, and if I decide to replace mine (which is currently just a cheaper tempered glass that does not go edge to edge), I will probably be getting the Orzly
I'm waiting to receive a Rhino Shield in the mail. I'm currently using an Inskin tempered glass protector. Not bad, but it doesn't go to the edges completely and the sides of the protector have a little bit of air underneath. Still works well thought. My phone fell in the gravel face first from my pocket, and there's not even a scratch, so at least it does the job.
Have also been looking for an edge to edge protector.. The orzly is right up there, however I have switched my capacitive buttons so I can't use it. Would look stupid. Still on the hunt.
anybody try the nanocoatings yet?

What is the best non-Tempered glass screen protector for LG V20?

Since there don't seem to be any tempered glass screen protectors that cover the entire screen and stick properly to the curved edges, I'm looking for the next best option.
What is the best protective film for the V20?
So far, I have come across these two on eBay:
1. Nillkin HD Clear Crystal Transparent Thin Phone Screen Protector Film For LG V20
2. 2x Mikvon Armor Screen Protector for LG V20 Retail Package with accessories
Anyone have experience with either of these protectors? Are they worth buying?
I tried to find Skinomi on eBay but shipping to my country is not available.
Note. International shipping is important.

Yes I did but the shipping costs are way too high, at U$9.95 + U$4.00 it would cost more to ship to my country than the cost of the screen protector itself.
I got this one and it rocks! It goes all the way to sides and it doesn't attract fingerprints, without compromising the screen quality!

The Armorsuit screen protectors have always treated me well. They seem to be clearer/have less of a "fuzz effect" than the others I've tried. They're wet application if that matters to you. I personally think it makes the process easier.

Mikvon goes from edge to edge. However it does not stick to the top and bottom curve of the phone. You will have a gap and it slowly collect dust. Also if you have a case, it might push on to the SP on the side.

Is this wet application? How much room is on the side? I use spigen case and looking for screen protector that doesn't interfere with it.
If the screen protector goes from edge to edge it has tendency to be peeled off by case.
Also does it cover entire screen from top to botton included lg logo?
Not a wet application. Just a dry one - you'll get quite a bit of bubbles but they clear up within a day. It's got about 1mm at the sides, cutting it a little close - slight off and you'll have that halo issue which I solved by snipping a bit off whichever corner.

So far, I haven't seen such a problem. No dust or lint collecting on the sides. but like I mentioned, slight alignment issues and you'll probably have to trim it off using a cuticle scissors or something - that's what I did. :good::good:
Here's a video for reference. Pardon the quality, I got the cam for christmas so just fooling around with it.

The gold is just the top film used during application. It's really just clear. Not too sure how a TPU SP is like but I reckon yes, it's just a normal clear version.
One word of advice, don't try to remove the cut-outs when you're removing film 1, leave it there, it's easier to remove that way - I learnt that the hard way.
Here's it now, the bubbles are pretty much gone and I haven't done anything specific to it. Perhaps playing some swiping games pushes the bubbles away :laugh:

Bump. Anyone find anything yet? Tried the highly recommended skinomi and that thing is crap. If you want to feel like you're touching an inner tube for a bike (minus the dirt) enjoy. But I can't stand that rubber feel. Ordered a different PET type from Amazon, hasn't come yet but hoping I'll have luck. Wet installations suck. And absolutely hate tempered glass. So, anyone have any PET type protectors to recommend that cover the whole screen?

Nope, dry install. If centered correctly upon installation, it is complete full coverage. My tip is to get a deep steam in your bathroom, and make sure your hands are clean. I have no lifting from my case and I got a case that the phone slides into. It has been perfect since install. Only 1 comes in package, but lifetime warranty. I highly recommend it.

Thee Best Screen Protector!!!

Hey guys! Just thought I'd share my experience trying to hunt down the best screen protector for my Galaxy S10e.
After trying about 4 different glass protectors all with pinch hole camera cut outs and being dis satisfied with the look and feel of the edges I decided to try one that came with a solid glass that covered the front entirely. It also had a super thin black boarder that I wasn't entirely convinced I was going to like.
Turns out it is AMAZING!! Phone looks literally as if there is nothing on. Edges are completely smooth so no more scratchy feeling whenever I slide my finger to use the edge display or gesture navigations.
Totally felt I had to share this! You can search for it on Amazon! :highfive:

Sorry wasn't sure if I could share a link i just added it to the OP. Yes it is case friendly and I belive the black border covers a super small part of the screen that is a fraction of a millimeter. When using edge lighting all you need to do is increase the thickness a bit.
However it does not get in the way at all and from my experience it is way better than other screen protectors I have tried that have transparent as they reflect the light at angles. Also the borders look terrible during the day, you can clearly trace it with your eye. This one literally reflects no light and looks like if there is nothing on it at all (the black border provides this effect)
Furthermore, this one comes with a plastic frame that makes placement and alignment such a breeze!
Hope that helps!

Got the Nillkin glass protector -> https://www.nillkin-case.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=6425
It's covering the whole display, with black borders around it(they eat 1-2mm from the actual display).
Very happy about it. Bought it at a locat shop with about 20 euros.
amFilm for Samsung S10e by TechMatte
I Love this screen saver
amFilm for Samsung S10e by TechMatte
Very easy install with alignment tool, nice squeegee tool got all the bubbles out. Looks excellent after install was complete. Will update in a few days to see how it look after a few days of use but so far so good. Was probably the easiest Tempered glass screen saver I have ever installed, very satisfied
Bought this exact screen protector because I wanted something inexpensive and without a cam cutout (I'd rather deal with an additional layer of glass on a front camera I anyway never use than with dust piling up in a tiny cutout). Well, I don't share OP's enthusiasm. A corner started to shatter appart after only a week, and I didn't even drop it or anything. It was in the same pocket as my lighter which might be the culprit but c'mon, if it can't handle a lighter and turns into a H8 shards dispenser that soon, how is it supposed to prevent scratches on the screen ?
Another corner got damaged after a 50cm (metric FTW) drop on wooden floor and I decided to get rid of it altogether.
It's cheap, it's easy to apply, it looks good (although the black border overlaps the screen by maybe half a millimeter), and it might last a bit longer for someone less careless than I am, still not a viable long term option according to me.

Sucks you had a bad experience with it. So I ended up reaching out to them after myself finding my screen protector had cracked and they sent me another one for free.
It probably isn't the strongest screen protector but it's cheap, easy to install, and looks great! It's TRUE the protectors with the hole punch are a haven for dust and just look hideous in general.
If you stumble across a better screen protector I'd love to hear about it! Perhaps I'll try it out next if this one tanks on me again
Cheers!

Xiaomi smartview case

Just received my case from AliExpress.
Very thin and first impressions are favourable although I'm tempted to put a thin clear film over the joint between the case and mini screen in the corner in case the edge flexes and scratches the screen.
Construction is a very thin hardshell rear with a plastic flip and a smoked translucent corner on the front.
Clearance for the cameras on the rear is minimal.
There's a small square magnet visible on the flip below the widow for the hall sensor to let out acts as a smart cover.
Using miui12 always on screen and smart case options gives a small clock and battery indicator in the window.
Can see the height difference between the Xiaomi smart cover and the leather case I had before.
The orange is muted and the Matt dark grey of the phone holder contrasts nicely.
Hopefully the mi10 won't get as warm with this case as it did with the leather one!
Does it affect (reduce) the screen on lateral ?

What do you mean by lateral?
That might not have translated well
The screen turns off when you close the case and turns on when you open it.
I highly suggest not using this case! it leaves a mark on your display exactly where the glass plastic part begins. because it is not perfectly flush with the leather part.
I used mine for about a week and have a permanent scratch on the display the entire length of the plastic window.

That's not good!
Mine the plastic is recessed away from the screen slightly so it shouldn't make contact.
I put a piece of clear gorilla tape over the joint anyway
I take it you don't have a screen protector fitted?
Mine came with one

nope mine did not come with a protector! which is odd cause everyone got theirs with a protector already applied. At the time I assumed this product would protect the display until my glass gets here but... it did the opposite -_-
I don't use this case even now that i have the glass on my phone because it limits the ways I can use it.
It looks dumb when taking photos because the thing just flaps in the air also cannot use my gimbal or my bike mount. all in all not my best purchase

I can't believe plastic is able to scratch the gorilla glass display.

I would guess you have an screen protector. I didn't see mine at first because ist sits perfect.
Looking at the notch is where i could see it on my phone.

I didn't believe it either but my phone did. lol
Be my guest and try for yourself. I don't know the technical term but the screen has some sort of coating as it's top most layer and the case made a permanent mark on the glass if you clean it perfectly it's not visible. But as soon as you touch the display that part will get dirty almost instantly. Another example, if i use an alcohol wipe the outline of the window on the display retains moisture and the rest does not. So call it what you want but this case damages your display.
my solution was to clean the display perfectly and put a "Hydrogel" (marketing BS for plastic foil) on top. I totally forgot about it until you quoted my post
Oh you mean the oleo phobic coating. Been there already because i was so "smart" and had washed my first smartphone display with dishwashing soap and was wondering why it was getting dirty even after cleaning.
Later I found a solution:
