SoMi glass screen protector: no halo, full screen coverage, see link for pics - Google Pixel 2 Accessories

After seeing a lot of posts in the screen protector thread about there not being any good glass screen protectors, I just wanted to share a few photos with you guys of my phone with the screen protector on it. See link below. I misaligned the protector from top to bottom so there are a few spots on the bottom that didn't stick completely; those are my fault

Please note that the description says the protector doesn't fully cover the screen; I don't know if it said that when I bought it or not but they MIGHT have changed the design. If you bought one of these recently, please comment

Well, that indeed doesn't cover the whole screen. It has big gap on the sides.
Does it has dot matrix?
How is the responsiveness of the touch screen?
Is it easy to install? Do you need to apply any kind of wet solution?
Thanks!

It isn't a dot matrix, touch responsiveness is normal, install is like any other glass screen protector (no liquid, just stick it on and smooth out the bubbles)
And sorry if I wasn't clear, I meant it covers the whole OLED panel

Dang, doesn't ship to Canada

Ya, really disappointed that they don't. Really need something to protect the screen before my Pixel 2 order arrives.
Spigen seems to be releasing their version of the Pixel 2 tempered glass on Dec 13th.
No idea if it will actually fit to the screen well or not though.

For me the IQ shield works great, it is also user friendly for the installation part.

No problem! I went through 4 or 5 before I found one that works, Amazon is a huge mess with these things right now so I figured someone could benefit from my experience haha

Tempered Glass Screen Protector

LINKS REMOVED
I'm interested. Once applied on is it easy to remove/replace?
Also, what happens if dropped flat on face? Assuming the tempered glass cover will shatter, will it protect/prevent the original s3 glass from shattering?

hah looks like you answered your own question
I like this but have some questions
How is input when using the screen? Works the same?
Is there any type of rainbow effect
Would using the home bottom have problems or is it thin enough to not be noticeable.
Is the side that goes on the screen a first and dirty magnet when applying?
I'm not a case person so this is very intriguing.

Screen works 99% of the time. Only time you will notice this is if you're playing a game that requires precise touches.

Not at all

Shouldn't be a problem, I'd need to confirm this when the samples arrive.

I think what he was asking is if the side that is on the phones screen is a fingerprint and dirt magnet.
I am very interested in this. How difficult is the installation?
if this is anything like the sgp glas i have on my galaxy s2, i'm definitely interested.
does it have the same feel and hardness?
shipping is not as competitive as other places but i won't mind if it is a good product.
Is this similar to the Zagg screen protectors? I've used them on my captivate and loved the feel and how they never come off
I tried to use the coupon code and it said the coupon code has reached the maximum redemption limit. Guess I won't be getting one.... unless you can fix that

Nope, I've had no problems with it at all. Installation is extremely easy- peel off the protective film, align along the speaker, align with home button, and you're done.

Pretty much the same thing, just a different company.
We ship using reliable and fast methods, most other companies use First Class Mail which usually takes longer. For a few extra bucks you'll get your item faster.

OnePlus X - Tempered Glass Screenprotector

I ordered the original temepered glass screenprotector with my OnePlus X and I'm really disappointed about it. I want to know if anyone else has the same issue.
There's still air all around the edges. Really regret peeling of the plastic protector that comes pre-installed .
Wanted to order a Orzly one but they pulled it out of the website( maybe the same problems??)
Noticed this on the Nillkin site: "Because the phone has posted under arc, film after about a slight white border, is normally" .....
Is there or will there be a better one, or has anyone good experience with this type of protectors on curved screens?
Here's a picture of the original protector installed
did you buy it from OP store?

It does look like that indeed. But it is perfectly aligned with the speaker and screen. Its not my first screen protector that i apply.. So I think it's not my fault..
I contacted Orzly today to ask if they are planning to release the Tempered Glass Protector for the OPX, as they where available a week ago as pre-order but not on the site anymore.
This was the answer I got:
"Unfortunately we are not planning to realised Tempered Glass Screen protector for the One Plus X. one plus x screen is too curved and we are not pleased with the fitting of the glass screen."
Seems like they have the same problem...
Is your glass 2.5D too (not talking about the screen of course )

You better use film rather than tgsp with such curved screen.
My father has the same problem with Note4 - edges of tempered glass is not round but straight, and screen is slightly round on the edges. I also planed to buy glass protector for my OPX but now i see that is not so good idea. I better wait for some hard case and i will live that original screen protector and i wish you well, maybe there will be curved tempered glass for our phones... who knows...
I ordered a similar one off Ebay. The same happened to me. I'm pretty good at applying screen protectors. There is air all around the edges. I bought a similar one for my wifes S5 and that went on perfect you can't even tell it's on. I'm sticking with it as the glass ones have saved my skin on other phones more than once.

For the looks maybe but a tgsp protects the screen much more!
I also ordered the NILLKIN, because I wasnt happy with the original one. I ordered the H + with rounded edges.
It was delivered today and was going to hesitate to go try this, eventually just went ahead and tried under the guise, "it can not be worse!"
I came to the conclusion that it was exactly the same size so probably had the same problem as the original.
And that was true, unfortunately, ...
So NILLKIN has the same problem as the original of OnePlus!
But!...
In contrast to the original is the NILLKIN H + rounded off at the edges so that feels better. Something also bothered me!
Conclusion, this is one better than the original! (Imho)
Someone on OP forums speaked about Sundatom Tempered Glass 9H 0.2mm 2.5D arc edge
One more to test....
2.5D means that only the edges of glass are rounded I don't think this cover whole screen (I hope I'm wrong)

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
Sent from my SM-G9750 using Tapatalk
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.
Iamnegan said:
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.

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.

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

Screen protectors for the outside screen?

I think I've only seen one of them on Amazon so far (this one). It looks like it might be fine - but I'm not sure $36 is where I want to be. I'm hoping we'll see some more options pop up soon.
Anyone seen anything else yet?
I'm really thinking I want something on there considering that the Flex Mode will basically be resting on the screen side whenever you use it (or you'd get a wobble on the cameras).

If it has a factory installed protector on it, leave it on until it wears out. They provide better protection than you might first think.
Ha-ha I "tested" the one on my 10+ the 2and day I had it and faceplanted it on a rough piece of 1/16th inch aluminum angled upwards.
Marred the protector but no damage to the screen... it hit on the curved glass area, hard.
Sand will scratch these screens.
I would lean towards a wet apply urethane screen protector as they are durable, remain clear, fairly easy to apply, bubble free, self healing and are inexpensive.
Been having a good run with Gorilla IQ Sheild on my 10+. Bought 4 three months ago and still on the first one. Shows some wear on the keypad area but no scratches and I'm not babying it. Similar in feel to the factory installed protector.

Do you know if this is necessary on the fold 2? The only reason I buy whitestone tempered glass for my samsung phones is because the screen is curved and whitestone makes the best glass for curved screens. If the z Fold 2 doesn't have a curved front screen, then I think most tempered glass screen protectors should work.
So I guess my main question is, does the z fold 2 have a curve to the front screen?

Sorry just saw your question. Yes the z Fold 2 has one side of the front screen slightly curved. The side that opens to be specific.

Because of the edges of the glass. I can feel the edges when playing games
Just received the Whitestone screen protector and installed it. It lined up perfectly with the hole punch camera, but doesn't quite cover the entire front glass. Had no adhesive dribble out on to my phone. But, did have to move the holder around to get the adhesive to fully disperse. I'm now just hoping that the first case I put on (when one of the five I ordered arrives), doesn't break the screen protector.

Question Testing other curved glass protectors on the 6pro

I have already tried a OnePlus 8 pro protector, but that protector is just ever so slightly too tall and not wide enough. It is 6.78" after all...
Does anybody have any ideas on what I can try next, so we can find a solution to this screen protector situation... I like the look of curved, but I absolutely hate the hassle it causes with screen protectors.
Does anybody have any suggestions... I'm willing to buy and try until we find one that works.
WHY put a protector over Gorilla Glass Victus?
I gave up screen protectors!

Exactly! I'm tempted with every phone to add a screen protector but Gorilla Glass Victus is also said to surpass Gorilla Glass 6 in terms of durability. Corning states that Victus is two times more scratch-resistant than Gorilla Glass 6 and up to four times scratch-resistant than competitors.

Name calling is so mature.
My post was simply to emphasize the person I was replying to that this new gorilla Glass victus is extremely strong. If you don't like my answer you don't have to reply to it with non-value-added words. Your reply literally had nothing to do with this post in any way whatsoever, but please keep calling US trolls.

I REALLY AM LOOKING FOR A GLASS SCREEN PROTECTOR, I PREFER THEM. SO WOULD YOU PLEASE STOP INTERUPTING THE THREAD WITH YOUR PREFERENCES.
I have 2 on the way, Super sheildz glass and a basic tpu from amazin. Considering how scratched even the glass protectors get, and I do not kick my phones around, I want to be able to sell it mint and You cannot do that if it doesn't have a case and screen on it from day one.
I get top buck for my phones because of that. Your MMV but it's a cheap investment. IntelliGlass has been sold and that was my fave so no screens from them and I'll be damned if I'll pay 40$ for one from Spigen even if it's the best, ill wait till it's half off.
There will be more entries into the market but it's limited right now. I'll post back on how it goes.
There seems to be a problem with the fingerprint reader not working when a glass screen protector is fitted, the one i fitted to my Pro was absolutely rubbish and pinged off so i didnt get to see the problem but the Spigen on i put on my wifes 6 means her fingerprint scanner doesn't work correctly now.

WHY put a protector over Gorilla Glass Victus?
I gave up screen protectors!

This. I don't see any scratches on my 2 year old 4 XL. Screen protectors were a pain in the ass to apply in the old days when the screens were flat. But now, not only the screen is curved as fuᴄk, but there's also that on-screen fingerprint reader that is already not great. Over my dead body am I dealing with the nightmare that would be a screen protector on this thing.

I get it bro... Is using the finger print unlock important to you? Every glass protector I've seen (on Amazon) the title either says "doesn't support finger print reader" or the reviews say that. Since your phone already has glass screen (please don't tell at me for saying that ) would you consider one of those plastic screen protectors? That's what I'm thinking about getting. Yes I'm answering your question.
Also you spelled interrupting wrong. You forgot the second R.
