Poor experience with glass film - Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories

I applied the glass protection of the brands Mocolo and Amfilm on my Pixel 2 XL. And what I realize is that, the black level is decreased somewhat giving way to gray color. These glass films look shiny. I wonder if these films of malleable plastic that needs a liquid to be applied, if it keeps the color faithful to the screen.
The last film I used was this ..

This is the exact reason I don't use glass screen protectors. I'm using (and always have) the plastic film one, currently Gadgetshieldz, and it for me is perfect

It doesn't seem to be very protective for frontal drops.

I have that screen protector saving me from any scratches along with the Supcase case giving me great drop protection.
For me, this is comprehensive protection for my device

There is another plastic film option as well. Even though it protects little compared to glass, I prefer plastic because of the faithful color levels. For greater protection only use a case that has larger edges than the screen. I use a Spigen liquid crystal and its edges is above the screen, so I already have a good protection.

I've had this for a while after some bad tempered glass experiences. Along with a Spigen case of course.

Spigen Nexus 5 Screen Protector GLAS.t SLIM

Has anyone bought this screen protector for the N5? I'm considering it since I want a fingerprint-resistant screen protector, but I don't know whether the cut outs will be faulty as their clear screen protector...
If not any other recommendations for a fingerprint-resistant screen protector for N5?

I'm a huge spigen fan, considering the GLAS.tR SLIM as they say the t non-rounded chips more easily?
Has anyone used these?

There's been high praise for the Spigen glass protectors so I ordered the GLAS.t SLIM. I think the cheaper of the two should provide enough protection as I generally take care of my phones pretty well. The lower profile of the GLAS.t seemed better for me although the rounded corners of the GLAS.tR would have been nice.
I've used cheaper anti-glare film screen protectors in the past, and they worked but didn't last long due to normal wear and tear, so I'm hoping this glass screen protector goes the distance. I hate applying new screen protectors =/
Edit: As for the recommendations, I would NOT advise Clarivue anti-glare. It works well initially but diminishes screen quality and the anti-glare coating wears out quickly in higher-use areas like where the keyboard is. Went through three in the past year.
If you're in Canada, they are now fulfilled by amazon.ca, that means free shipping! http://www.amazon.ca/SPIGEN-Protect...id=1383316041&sr=1-12&keywords=spigen+nexus+5
I'm really interested in getting the glass.t or glass.tr protectors. However, one thing that has always worried me about tempered glass protectors is the possible space between the screen and the protector.
Since glass protectors are not flexible, but the protector and actual screen must be perfectly flat or there will be bubbles due to points of non-contact between the two. Does anyone have experience applying one, and do they fit well together or are there problems?
EDIT: Also, would these protectors work with the Spigen cases or would the extra thickness cause a problem?
Anyone got theirs yet? I'm thinking of getting the GLAS.t Slim since I'd prefer the thinner one.
I'm wondering if the upper lip on the Spigen cases will actually cover the edges of the protector or if there will be a gap. Since I'm planning to use it in combination with a case, if the case covers the edges of the protector I can't see any advantage of the GLAS.tR Slim.
I've also read some other glass protectors have a grid of dots on them. I think this would really annoy me. Do the Spigen protectors have this?
Do they affect viewing angles at all?
Finally, is a cracked or shatter glass protector likely to scratch up the screen? They are of similar hardness...
Thanks.
I turst Spigen
I have not tried the tempered glass on Nexus 5, but I would trust Spigen products all time, they are getting very positive review on Amazon as well, so I would say go for it and I believe they have the money back guarantee, so why to worry

I have the Sir Lancelot Armor-Holy Grail for my N4. I have tried them all. First off stay away from Clarivue and Maru, both are just not good.
Haven't tried any others since SLA and ILoome(which have GREAT customer service!) on my N4, so I hope the Spigen can play well with the hybrid case!
The Spigen site recommends using a case along with their GLAS products, so I'm going to assume they fit cases (or at least Spigen cases) just fine.

I remember using a SGP screen protector three years ago. I had tried two. The adhesive was bad and it curled off my phone.

I've heard this from some people as well. I personally will keep my phone without a case or a bumper at the most, so I can't speak from experience. If it's a wet application screen protector, it's probably much more likely that it will curl off since those tend to extend to the edges of the screen.
Here's what is on the Spigen site:
As this is a glass product, please note that the edges of the glass are the most vulnerable areas. We highly recommend that you use a case along with your GLAS.t SLIM to avoid chipping or cracking the edges of your GLAS.t SLIM

I believe the point of the tR is precisely to be used without a case (the tR product page doesn't have the paragraph about using it with a case to protect the edges). So if you're going to use a case, get the t, if not you should get the tR.
I used the glas TR with my work iphone, and they're fantastic. Very durable and they almost feel better than the naked screen. I have one on order for the N5, but not sure if ill put it on right away. You can't go wrong with one of these though, well worth the money if you are looking for long lasting screen protection.
From Spigen's website:
GLAS.T - Our first and original GLAS.t screen protector. Made of real tempered glass and premium silicone adhesive. It is about 0.4mm thick.
GLAS.tR - The "R" stands for rounded. This glass protector has beveled edges to to help prevent chipping on the edges of the glass. Recommended for users that are not using a case or a minimal case design. About 0.55mm thick.
GLAS.T Slim - We've made our popular GLAS.t even slimmer. Same concept and material as our GLAS.t, but it ranges from 0.23-0.26mm depending on the product.
GLAS.tR Slim - Also the rounded version of the GLAS.t Slim. The thickness is about 0.4mm

I'm having some trouble with the GLAS.tR. I just installed it, and the bottom left corner is not sticking, and there is a spot that's not sticking on the right side of the headset speaker. I'm trying to leave some weight on top of it and see if that will fix it.

same here! I have three rather large "bubbles" (though thankfully none are on the screen), one of which is in the bottom left corner. When I apply pressure, it reduces to a tiny bubble, but after about a minute, it will have expanded again. I tried putting a textbook on top overnight, but this morning when i lifted the book, it just grew back in a minute.
If it doesn't fix itself in another 24 hour, I'm going to call Spigen.

hmm that's cheaper than the spigen and some others. i may order that and give the rhino sheild that's yet to arrive to my brother, being he's destroyed several phone screens.
#1 reason I don't use glass protectors is because they're hard and trapped dust can't be removed easily. This might actually make me switch to glass in the future. Too bad I already purchased a 6-pack of matte SP's for my N5 which will last me till I dispose of the phone.

I get it but glass make the phone feel so nice
Im hoping someone does a video comparison of the tru glass versus the spigen nano slim. The spigen is 0.23 mm and the truglass is 0.25mm. However I do not believe the spigen protector is flexible like the truglass. I'm sure that helps make it shatterproof if it truly is glass. Because it is soo flexible it makes me think its plastic and not glass. They do have flexible glass screens on phones nowadays but it is technology that is just hitting the market so I would suspect if this were truly glass and this flexible it would cost more than the spigen but it is cheaper !!
The rounded spigen nano is still not out yet so there is still some time for people to get this one and test it out.....cant wait to see the results. One more major thing I'm hoping to get with either one of these glass screen protectors is true smudge proof/oil resistance. That is the most important feature to me...so which ever one is more oleophobic is the one I want.

By that logic, the gorilla glass screens used on all phones and tablets costs $20+ to make? That's more than the cost of the processors in our devices.

oh my bad I haven't used a screen protector in about 5 years. But 2 weeks into having my HTC One I got 2 huge scratches in the center of the screen.

It moved a little bit and had some flex to it. It definitely is a rigid piece of glass though. I think it flexes more because of the thinness of the glass piece.

OK guys so I placed this Tru Glass protector and it is awesome, I had a SPIGEN Glass TR on my phone before I put this one (glass tr is the one that has the issues), its super slim just like the Glass Nano TR, it feels great to the touch feels just like the naked screen.
It was easy to put on no bubbles or anything like that.
So I really recommend this protector its awesome, its cheaper than the SPIGEN protectors and in my own opinion its as high quality as the SPIGEN brand.

[Q] Using Tempered Glass and SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle

What's so special about using Tempered glass? I couldn't really notice the difference (except for the breaking part of it - it shatters as a whole)
I know how it's made specially using thermal and chemical methods, but why is it popular?
Also, I'm getting the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Premium Hybrid Protective Case (Frost Clear/Black).
Has anyone else tried it? How good is it? Any better cases you could suggest?
Tempered glass is nice because it gives good protection and doesn't get as dirty as your typical vinyl plastic cheap protectors. They (the good ones at least) come with the same oleophobic coating that comes on your screen that keeps it clean and free off fingerprints.

You also get drop protection so in the event you drop your phone on your screen only the tempered glass will shatter and your screen should be fine.

Oneplus 2 nillkin glass question

Hello!
I chose nillkin case, but looking to buy nillkin glass, and have a question: they have new H+ Pro and PE+ glass, not only H like it was for Oneplus One.
Did anybody try it? Any recommendation?
btw, H glass was awesome for oneplus one.
Links to actual products:
PE+
H+ PRO
H
Thanks for suggestions.
What are differences between them?
From what I can tell...
PE+: blocks blue light from screen (filter of sorts), is 0.3 mm thick, no claim for light transmittance, nano oleophobic coating.
H+ Pro: 0.2 mm thick, 99.9% light transmittance, nano oleophobic coating.
H: 0.3 mm thick, 99.99% light transmittance, nano oleophobic coating.
Not sure how they have 99.99% light transmittance in a thicker screen protector, but whatev.
Am I right that H+ Pro is the preffered option?

Definitely, for glass the thinner the better because its less noticeable and at 0.2mm it will still offer decent protection.
But personally I'd just get a few of these and call it a day, they all come from the same place any way if you know what I mean.

Ok, great, thanks.
cr0wnest, also thanks for a link, either I understand what you mean, I will go with nilkin, they recommended themself by great cases for me + glass for my previous phone (oneplus one) was pretty good.
Will order 0.21 (H+ Pro), ty.
I'm expecting a pe + buy in aliexpress.
I hope that the home button is not too deep.
I received my Nillkin H+ the other day and I can say there is a huge difference between this and a Bepak glass protector I previously owned.
Nillkin will be a risk-free choice!
Hey how was your experience with nillkin h+ pro? I am confused between nillkin h+pro and original one plus 2 temeperd glass. I want to use it with otterbox back cover
Bought this a few days back and it's really very good , looks beautiful , is resistant to everyday usage and is very thin . the oleo phobic coating really works , the display is always clean unless your hands are very oily .

Matte glass protectors are same in thickness as the normal ones, but with the anti glare matte quality on the screen. Its exactly the same feeling as the matte plastic film protectors. It is less prone to fingerprints as well. I only had it on for a while before switching back to normal clear tempered glass, I prefer to have clarity.

Sorry to bother so much haha. But I noticed that it is 0,26mm.
Maybe I should look for 0.2 mm or the difference isn't so big?
Maybe nilkin h+ if it really is like both combined can be the best option

Those that say 0.2mm is actually 0.26mm or maybe even 0.3mm. After using so many tempered glasses, all that talk about thinness is BS to me.
@mantiyeah i got the H+pro
I was tipped off by a friend that the Nilikin H+ Pro tempered glass have a better oleophobic coating than normal tempered glasses, and they only cost slightly more. I don't have a H+ Pro to test so I cannot say. Can someone confirm this?
Oh yes the oleo phobic coating on the h+pro is much better than on regular ones .

Screen Protectors - UK

So what's everyone planning on getting or using?
I'm not a fan of tempered glass, so I still tend to rock the film ones.
Have been using the Ringke Dual Easy Film on my S10e, and they're perfect, however they're not yet available for the Pixel 5 (They are coming though!)
Grabbed myself some of the Atfolix ones https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08KLV9P1W/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1, again, used these in the past on the Pixel 2 (I think it was) similar to the Ringke, just a different type of installation method.

I'm in the same boat. I've never had a tempered glass screen protector that I liked. I picked up this since it was the only non-glass one I could find. Hopefully it doesn't suck.

Ringke dual easy film are out on Amazon, however, it's the wings version, which wraps around the side of the phone. :/
I've just ordered a 'Brotect' screen protector having previously had a positive experience on Nokia 8, will report back.
Man i can't seem to find any good screen protectors on amazon, all those already there are either not available before November (though it already has comments...) Or doesn't fit... Didn't check on other websites though (Fr here).
I too ordered a brotect airglass screen protector, 3 pack for £8.19.
Previously I had purchased one off amazon that I returned as the punch hole cutout would not align - most of the ones on amazon have the same issue of alignment based on the odd reviews coming in. I hope brotect will be good as it's made in Germany.
Screen Protector
I just fitted my Supcase Unicorn Beetle case w/ built in screen protector - it is amazing, makes my P5 feel much better in my giant hands.
if I didnt get this i'd wait for the spigen Glas-T, they fit like a glove and work well on their own or with their cases (liquid air is on order as a backup)

Looks a little bulky
How is the screen protector?
Laughing at the speaker holes when it's under the screen
a naked Pixel is just too dainty for my hands, protector is nice and responsive.
I can recommend the Brotect air glass screen protector. Precise width (which has led to me having half a mm uncovered on the right as it's the same amount over on the left...) but very easy application and looks great. Fits fine with a Spigen case.

Are you talking about this one?

Does it come with a cutout for the camera as shown in the picture on amazon?

I ordered mine from here but it looks like the same one. Yes it has that style of cutout.
Avoid the AtFolix range. I've used them before and theyre usually fine, these are another level of poor!

Ordered a pack of the Media Devil Protectors - Hopefully these will be better!
I have applied the brotect screen protector. If you apply it properly (my second attempt) then you can cover the entire screen. First time using it but on appearance it does not seem like glass at all, looks more plastic so cannot comment on the durability. But it is very thin and looks great.
Only the top left camera portion is unprotected as there is no punch hole but rather a corner cut out in the protector
I have the LK tempered glass. It is not bad at all. A bit small for my liking. It covers all of the screen though. Has a cut out and sticks well. Tempered glass is going to
be interesting for this phone as I think they will all look very narrow and short. While the screen is flat the gloss border curves away and you have to choose where protection ends. My personal preference might be for film this time but will see. This is fine for now. I had a Zagg protector ordered from them but it got cancelled. Frustrating.
Puzzling why the Supcase has 2 extra holes on the top of the protector in the middle... very weird.
