Can anyone please recommend me a non full coverage glass screen protector for my Pixel 2 non XL that has the same anti smudges treatment (oleophobic coating) which the screen itself has? I always buy the cheapest I can find on eBay but it's a fingerprint magnet...
I already have confirmation that the Spigen has it but because it is shipped from USA shipping costs for my country Portugal are more than the protector itself... I was looking for something on the cheap size, like the Spigen (9 bucks a pair).
Thanks in advance... Cheers
The Griffin Survivor Glass Screen Protector was just released. Looks pretty good and has the coating, cost $35. Link:

The Whitestone is great(have one on my P2XL prob the best) but runs about $50, SGfreshidea Invisshield only makes theirs for P2XL.
Zagg Invisibleshield Glass + is also another option (coated) for $39. Link:

Thanks a lot for you answer
But 35 and 50 bucks is way more than what I am willing to spend (I should have put that info in my post, sorry). The Spigen, for instance, costs 9 bucks for a pair ... Do you have a cheaper suggestion? Also, aren't some of those suggestions full coverage protectors? I hate those since I had a terrible experience (the touch is awful, rainbow effect, dot matrix, don do well with cases, etc)

No most of those cover only the flat viewable screen, so not full coverage. The full coverage protectors will almost always pull away from the edges(also not case friendly) and are not all clear(colored borders). Most also do not have full adhesive and lots of other problems like halo, rainbow, dot matrix etc... The only protectors that will last and look right on the pixel 2 phones(especially using a case) are a bit more money but worth it if you want to do it once and be done...

Any glass protector over $10 will be advertised with an oleophobic costing. There's an entire list in the screen protector thread that all meet your requirements. I personally use the Brotect Airglass and fingerprints wipe off with ease.

Not sure if you have an Amazon presence over there. If so you could check there, it usually works out to be reasonable for Spigen products
The Whitestone dome tempered glass protector is probably the best one out now the pixel 2 XL, a little expensive tho

UPDATED:
Recently many members has posted that they have received these mercury protectors cut short of about 1-2mm and does not have the curved edges, I have personally seen these, and the package looks identical, it is confirmed that these are all authentic, the old version has the curved edges, new version are cut short.
What evers Mercury decisions was, they still have the sticker showing the curved foaming edges.
I would also suggest you contact the seller and ask them to confirm the actual protector are curved, and not based on the sticker.
I just purchased the lime green one for the fun of it, here is a simple review of it.
Before I start, the shop has put this protector on a few phone and has given me a warning about the curve of the protector, with this protector it will fit best with korean version of the S3 or a made in korea unit, as the glass are made in many countries the curve edge of the glass may vary due to specification, this isn't to say that you won't get a perfect fit on a international version or US version.
With the lime green protector that i have purchased, there are cut out for the sensor, camera, home button and the ear piece, the cut out are precise to about 0.2mm which is very good, the curves of the protector is also very good, and does goes right upto the edge of the metal bezel by 0.5mm which is considered one of the best edge to edge coverage.
The actual screen protector is a anti glare and matt finished, and is varly clear.
Does the bullkin have any rainbowing? Im hoping they popup on eBay as Im not a fan of matte protectors.

That's fantastic. I guess I'll check and see if I can get the red Bulkin one.
Does the black have a metallic finish like the Mercury brand?
Sorry if it was mentioned, didn't read the whole review
Edit: it is a solid color, thanks
A great review/overview, thanks - its a real shame that it's so difficult to find both of these (fully curved and fitting) online anywhere...
One question, just curious - you mention that you can get 4 Bullkin protectors for the price of 1 Mercury - what was the price of both protectors? (mercury seem to be around the $10 USD mark on ebay...)

The price of my mercury was USD 11.5, I know on ebay the prices has dropped a little, but those on ebay, you're not sure if you will get the flat one or curved one, But for me, I buy direct from a local store, so I see the item before I make the purchase, the extra cost is worth it, if i'm sure to get the proper curved screen protector.
These bullkin only cost approximate USD 2.5 which are wholesale price.
first post updated with more information.
Can't wait to see what the reviews are going to be like. They look pretty nice!

rlatjs17 I ordered one of those glasszone protectors, I'll post about it when i get it in my own thread.
those are nice! i just ordered my pb sgs3 and will probably buy one of theses. OP, sorry if i missed it in the FP but which one did you like more? thanks for your review
So the real Mercury ones have almost full coverage with curved screen if I have understand it well?
I'm looking for one with full coverage because like with the SGP I would have an ugly gap between my bumper and the glass protector then.
Looks promising, but I keep buying screenprotectors these days in the search for a good one

I bought 3 different types in total. illumishield gives me 0 problem.
+1 on Illumishield.
XtremeGuard on mine, went on almost flawlessly for a wet install. Really great protection, great prices, I even have one on my DNA!
Is the illumishield better than the spigen? And Tempered glass is it really worth it?
zagg has wet apply projectors for us now. they are the best I have used so far. I have an I blason on the way to try out and I'm using the horrible Asus protector right now. :-\ tempted to put a zagg on top of an iblason haha
edit: In a moment of mental incapacity I had installed the Asus protector improperly so I should give it more credit though mine did come with a dented edge and these are not my preferred style they are probably OK for most people.

Is the iblason tempered glass really worth the 20$ plus shipping?
I'm using the SUPCASE Ultra Clear Series and it is such a tight fit on the tablet you wouldn't even know it was there (ZERO room for error when aligning, but very forgiving on re-positioning too). The only thing that makes it stand out is the single cutout for the front camera. Two pack on Amazon was around 10$ with free prime 2 day shipping. Best deal I've found
Edit: From reading the packaging, they claim that the screen protector is a tight 0.3mm fit on the tablet.

for me yes it is, i love tempered glass screen protectors. i have one for my note 2 as well.
if you have used other screen protectors, like zagg/ect, and like them, it might not be worth it to you. ive never liked zagg/ect over tempered glass protectors.
luckily i got mine for $20 shipped($15+$5), so i saved $5 at least before they raised the price.
The i-blason is definitely worth it. You get the 1 year warranty against pretty much anything including scratches and bubbles. I already had to use it due to a spot on my protector that refuses to lay flat on my screen. I just sent them a picture of the area and they sent a replacement out straight away. Great customer service.

I hate wet apply screen protectors. They always have a tacky feel and they are never flawless.
I'm using the Official Asus ones and they're nice but they must have some issues at the factory. I've been through 2 now and both have had dents that cause it to raise and bubble. My second one is at the bottom and small, so Im keeping it.
The Spigen is very high quality and considered the best. Amazon had these for $12 which is a steal. I never used the glass ones but I'd imagine they would be closer to a natural feel compared to plastic ones.
I prefer the Matte ones myself. The only matte one that seemed like quality is the Official Asus ones. I bought another brand of Mattes (3pack) that have 3 cutouts and reportedly horrible from Amazon for super cheap ($3 shipped) to use as backup.
I would agree with post #2. The Supcase SP looked very nice too.
Use the hinge method when installing quality protectors because the cut leaves no room for error. I use painters tape on the sides for a hinge. Rip and squeegee.

I've used Spigen Ultra Clear on my old Galaxy S2 and my family's Galaxy S4s. I use Rearth Ringbo Ultra Clear on my old Nexus 7, Nexus 4, and new Nexus 7. I don't really much of a difference (or feel) between both brands. The Rearth one gives you 3 for about $5 on Amazon. Pretty cheap, works just as great, and it doesn't leave a residue like some other cheap brands.
EDIT: Just wanted to point out, both Spigen and Rearth SP has a hardness of 3H. Getting scratches on both will be pretty normal due to the hardness of the material. Unavoidable, but better that than your actual glass (which I think has a hardness of 8H).
Is iblason the only company right now that makes a tempered glass screen protector for the new nexus 7? Just wondering since shipping it to Canada is like 40$ all together and i don't think its worth it
I use Ghost Armor on all of my devices! They haven't been available for the N7 FHD, but I checked tonight and they finally are! Ordered tonight, so I should receive it next week. Can't wait!! They are tyne best option in my opinion!!

Was considering the tR SLIM, but decided it's too expensive to spend on one screen protector. The plastic ones work fine, the one I've got on my current phone has been perfect, no air bubbles or anything, so I think I'll stick with one of those.
I'm in the UK though, and the only Spigen plastic screen protector on Amazon or eBay I can find is the Crystal one, not Ultra Crystal or Steinheil or whatever it's called. Does anyone know what the difference is? Also has anyone in the UK got a recommendation for a plastic screen protector for the N5 from a known brand, not one of the cheap eBay ones?

Ultra-Crystal Steinheil from Spigen since it came with the case from Spigen I got off Amazon. I'll share my thoughts once I get it, it's due to come in the same day as my phone(which should be September 7th).

Screen Protector GLAS.t Slim - $29.99
FOR PROTECTION KIT 2
Screen Protector Steinheil [Ultra Crystal] - $13.99

Smooth Black
All for the amazingly low price of $36.99
This would be great if they could do the same for the Nexus 5. I really like that GLAS.t.R and would love it on the N5. I ride a lot on my bike and stuff it in the back pocket of my jersey as well as putting the phones i have in my pocket. I dont want the screen scratched. I dont care how good Gorilla Glass 3 is, I know through daily use I'm sure I would end up scratching it.

You don't buy screen protectors for scratch protection as much as you do for minimizing the visibility of fingerprints. The N4 screen requires constant cleaning without it.

I have noticed that screen protectors do help this more than one might assume.
Do these come with a cut out for the light sensor on the right? I bought some cheap ones for my N4 and I had to cut the corner off for the sensor to work properly.
I orderd the glastr tempered glass protector. I have one on my Note 3, and it makes the screen feel like there is nothing on it (just as smooth as regular glass screen) whereas a plastic protecter is never a smooth.
I've used the Xtremeguard on 3 of my devices. It is a wet-application protector. I've found them to be quite good!
Currently, you get 80% off when you use the SPOOK80 coupon code on their website.

No finger drag from friction, oleophobic coating, and actual impact protection. I've never understood the mentality of, "Hey, I'm not going to spend more than $3 to protect the glass screen of this $400-800 device! That's too damned much!"

Higher-rated hardness for scratch resistance and rounded edges on the protector itself to make it fit better with cases.

Glas.tR has rounded edges for a better feel on the device better impact dissipation both are rated at 8-9h hardness. The Glas.tR is also about 0.16mm thicker than the Glas.t so it will marginally make your device heavier otherwise the two are the same.
more information on the Spigen website. personally i'm going to wait til i see a review on one over the other but right now im leaning towards the Glas.tR
hope this helps.

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

Did you check ebay?
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?
Edit; How about this one? http://www.ebay.com/itm/0-3mm-Premi...l_Phone_Screen_Protectors&hash=item54037fc8a0
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.

Ok thanks. I just placed my order on ebay.com. I have paid £10,90 (shipping included), it is not as cheap as yours but I think it's worth the money.

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.

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.

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.

:good:
anti explosion?
Yes,explosion! See if you're in an explosion don't worry! You might be dead, but your phone's screen won't have a scratch XD
At this price, you'd probably be better off getting the OEM protector from OP (which is only $5, if I remember correctly).

Depends on preference. PET vs tempered glass.
I am not a huge fan of tempered glass protectors, I have seen them break screens underneath the glass without breaking the glass. They can do more harm than good.

Man, 2 for £6.99 is really cheap. Anyone had any experience with the brand?
All I could find is this.
EDIT: Going up in price. Now £8.99
at ebay seems that one nillkin case appeared!
i bought the case and also the anti-explosion screen protector! (the case has one nillkin screen protector but not the tempered.)
Just get the Original Nillkin Tempered Glass Screen Protector for my oneplus one from aliexpress.com. Just want use it to protect my phone from dust, scratching. Nice product.
Would you buy the Nillkin?

Or the Orzly?
http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00KQKATH8/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=
Nillkin or Orzly, which can you recommend? (I only had exim (now nexxaScreen) and dipos till now).
I have the Nillkin. Feels a bit lower quality than a high end Spigen one. The transmission isn't great. you can visually tell there's something between the screen and your eyes.
i would go with orzly for sure
I totaly agree with the nilken one being cheap. I ordered it from aliexpress and it arrived broken. i ordered it from ebay and then returned it as it was square edged and looked quite universal. Did a google search and came across a youtube link with the orzly video (type in orzly one plus one glass screen) and then found it on amazon. The packaging, the manual and everything about it looked the same as a spigen one and it looked like its from the same factory
at $14.99 from amazon.com i was chuffed to bits with it. I also brought a orzly one plus one case as well.
Anyway the video on youtube does a good job in showing it of and i hope this post answers your questions and helps.

A third on the nilken... the window for the ffc and ear speaker is a slot going all the way across from the right side of the speaker to the left side of the ffc port. in between, there's a gap that doesn't need to be there. I'll try the Orzly when the time comes to replace it.
Ordered the Nillkin Tempered Glass Protector too - for me it's working fine since two weeks. Never had such a good screen protector. If you can wait the two weeks shipment from Hongkong (to Germany), you can't go wrong with it. And: it's only around ten dollars!
0.2 mm something new?
Anyone got a feedback or experience about new 0.2 mm tempered glass?
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/New-...reen-Protector-for-One-Plus-1/1963220626.html
I mean, if you take Nillkin or Orzly, etc. they are all 0.3 mm..... and if you look at the pictures in the ali listing, the difference in thickness could be a real deal breaker...
