Out of curiosity I too ordered these SPECIFICALLY because they do not curve. Of all the TGSP I've tried they all inevitably fail due to the lack of full screen adhesion (bar the Whitestone ones, but seriously....£45 for a screen protector?? Nah!) so would like to see how this one performs and if it affects touchscreen sensitivity at all.
Should be here next week so I too will drop an update to see how it is!

when i ordered them i though they covered the edge and a few days later he updated the ad i found out that after i posted this

These are terrible due to our curved screens. You will see a line where the screen starts to curve and you will feel it when you use certain swipes with the curved screen. Sorry.

Yeah when I got my case I got a screen protector. But it got a lot of bubbles and like the case is picking up the screen protector.

I would say xtremeguard if you could find one of their good coupons. $1+ they are good. Not worth retail though

Would be great if someone did a screen protector comparison of all the $1-$10 brands out there to see what, if any differences there are in actual use.
As long as it comes in a box so the protector can't become bent in shipping I imagine they're all quite similar.
mediadevil is fantastic, 2 screen protector for 9$
Amzer Kristal SP for N5 at Fommy
Well in my past experience with my older phones the major problem I used to face with the screen protectors was their cut out problems they dont have such fine cut outs and due to that it also creates problem at the time of installation and even result into bubbles......but this time I bought this Amzer Kristal Screen protector for my N5 , its a dry application and has very fine cut outs...no problem in the installation and believe me not a single bubble at all...
I am really happy to have it on my N5..it does not make any impact on the screen and its touch sensitivity...so far its working very fine and smooth....I got it from Fommy....for almost $ 7 - SHIPPED...which I would say quite worth one.....so you can just check it out once...may be you like this one because its better to take a good one rather than to go for these cheap ones because of some bucks discounts and all . As SPs can directly effect your screen and nobody likes to take any risk on it for sure...especially when they have their new and fav gadget in their hands .Can't say about all...But I will never.... ....I like this SP and my N5 both......
Thanks

Chinese Glass Screen protectors

I know people mentioned in other threads that they were buying these from Ebay such as these listings: http://www.ebay.com/itm/For-Motoral...l_Phone_Screen_Protectors&hash=item4d1b0a9cbe
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tempered-Gl...l_Phone_Screen_Protectors&hash=item23386382f0
How are they holding up? Any issues installing them? How is the sensitivity especially the navigation keys? Is the protector repelling fingerprints well? How is it cut, the pictures show a large cutout area for the speaker/light sensor area but glass still above the speaker, is that a problem with cases?
I have the Mime and my only issue is at the nav key area its not as sensitive, if I rub hard across the nav key area it does improve for a while. I'm using a TPU case so there is no issues with fitment and I don't have any overhang from the protector.
Our country is not recommended for buying ebay... I do not use it in past. So i have no experience about that.. But i asking you is it give good feedback ours ?
i got it on mine right now. coming from 2x MIME that i shattered, here are my findings:
1. a little trickier to install than MIME. instead of touch-n-watch magic, u actually have to evenly press it. no biggies though.
2. cut a little BETTER than MIME. it's still not perfect. shaped still like MIME, but not as bad as MIME.
3. About the same sensitivity and still no issue with sensors or what not.
4. It's a bit thicker and not very well cut on the edges. It's cut in an angle so it's very smooth at the edges when you run your fingers; BUT this is also a problem as very bright screen when viewed from an angle will create some sort of "holographic" edge, if u know what i mean.... hard to explain, but it can be annoying if u like to view ur phone from the side........
Overall though, for 2 weeks FREE shipping and costs $5.... (vs MIME's $20 with shipping all the way here in Canada), it's really good.
At the very least, it's good enough that you do NOT want to go back to plastic protector... (oh gawd Skinomi, i still hate you and your super sticky films)
here's some pic actually...

Screen Protectors!

Hi guys,
Can you recommend good quality screen protector? Any good brand?
I looked but I don't think I want one. I'm a fan of glass and I don't see that happening for the watch.
I got a set of 6 EZGuardz screen protectors on EBay for less than $3. It fits right to the edge of the glass perfectly and is 100% invisible. I can feel a slight difference when swiping. It's just a tiny bit less slippery feeling. But the peace of mind knowing that I'm not gonna accidentally scratch the screen is well worth it.

I bought a set as well
I bought some Skinomi MatteSkin protectors that fit well enough, but I thought they made the screen look too fuzzy. I usually like matte finish anti-glare screen protectors, but I didn't like these particular ones on this watch. I'm going naked for now.
I ordered a set of two from XtremeGuard's website. They have a promotion going on where you can get 91% off using the promo code Christmas91 and purchasing three items. Should get it in the next few days. Will report back.
I bought the Skinomi TechSkins (the kind that you have to spray before applying) and I am happy with it. It has a lifetime guarantee (or so they say) but I have 6 of em so I doubt I'll ever need to take them up on that. It had a few bubbles for the first day or two but those started to face and now it isn't even noticeable. I can feel a slight change in the ability to slide my finger on it, but i'm comfortable with it.
Received my XtremeGuard protector (ordered 2, but only received one). Applied just like their other protectors, which was very easy. Looks good and no issues whatsoever. Not bad for the price either considering it was 91% off.

Best OnePlus 7 Tempered glass screen protectors

I'm about to buy the OnePlus 7 and I want to get a good Tempered glass screen protector for this smartphone.
For my several older smartphones I didn't have such a good experience with screen protectors in general.
Are you going to get OnePlus 7? What Tempered glass screen protector are you planning to use?
For now I might get this one:

I'll be watching for an Ultimate Shield 3D protector, they're usually reasonably priced but good quality.

I always use rhinoshield. The preinstalled plastic protector will be sufficient until rhinoshield starts producing theirs. OnePlus tempered glass is garbage and cracks in your pocket under normal circumstances. I have a front and rear impact protection on my OnePlus 6 and the screen and back are still in perfect condition.

I like what Ultimate Shiled has to offer and went with them even though they're in the UK and I'm in the US.
I ordered the TGSP/Nylon Case bundle with my OP7 and finally got round to installing it today. As per normal, it's not an easy process to remove the protector from its backing and work out all the bubbles but now it is done I have to say that it is a good fit and once the fingerprint sensor was retrained works very well.
I used the included clear case to aid alignment and now that it is on I only have a very slight bit of lift at the top left corner which is only visible with the screen off or dark. I can live with that. Doesn't seem to clip the screen noticeably either.
As you would expect, it is fully compatible with the Oneplus cases. It is also perfect with the Spigen Liquid Air.
In short, expensive but a good fit.
**Update: A couple of gentle strokes after a couple of hours an the one bit of lift is now gone. Result.

Huness Full Coverage Tempered Glass Screen Protector + TPU Case

When I ordered my Pixel 4, I ordered a few various screen protectors and cases to have ready when it arrived. I'm very happy to report that the first one I tried out has turned out so well that I just threw all the other cases/protectors in a drawer to collect dust.
Amazon Link ($7.99)
I installed the case first to use as a guide to install the protector and the end result is the most perfect protector install I've done on any phone, with perfect alignment and no dust trapped underneath. There is no "halo" line to be seen where the clear part of the protector meets the black border around the edges, either. I was quite worried about that.
I initially intended to use this protector (or another one) with a Spigen TPU case, but the case that comes with this protector is so good (with a slim snug fit and perfectly tactile button feel) that I have no desire to remove it. I love the combo so much that I decided to order another one to have as a spare in case they ever disappear from Amazon.
Anyway, I just wanted to share this with others who may be looking for full coverage protectors. Here are a few pics I took. Any dust seen is on top of the protector. Living in a brand new house, it's impossible to escape, unfortunately.

Does the screen protector adhere well on the edges? Or does it rise up?

Sorry for the delay. The edges adhere with no issues. I haven't had any lifting at all. It's still perfect.
Full coverage protectors always seem to chop off a bit of the display. Usually noticeable in apps that have objects near the edges. How does this one fare?

I disagree. I have installed many screen protectors and this one does not confirm to the curved edges of the screen. The case is excellent though.
I bought it just today, waiting for it to arrive to me in Italy (about 10 days). From the photos I can see that they are a winning combination!
