A few things to consider before you buy accessories - Honor View 20 Questions & Answers

1) Most screen protectors do not fit the view 20. The description might claim it fits View 20 and Nova 4 but in reality it will not. Most do not include the cut-out for sensor and camera, and do not cover the screen fully. To be sure the protector fits, get Olixar tempered glass, which is specifically made for Honor View 20. It's more pricey, but well worth the money.
2) Do not buy hard plastic covers for the device. View 20 is full-glass phone and hard plastic covers provide no real protection to it. Get a soft TPU one.
3) Camera lens protection is also recommended, as the lenses touch the surface you place it on, and also very easily scratch. You can get one from amazon for 10 dollars.
4) In a nutshell, there are a ton of accessories available that are supposedly usable for View 20 but in fact aren't. And most importantly, this phone is super prone to scratches so please protect it all around.

You don't need a screen protector, as the View 20 comes with one pre-applied. The phone also comes with a soft plastic case in the box, which when used raises the lens of the camera off the surface.
All the points you've made seem to be totally covered by the items you get straight out of the phone's box.

First of all, the Global Model does not include a case.
Second, the screen protector is incredibly thin and made of soft plastic. It provides very little cover at all. Third, when you put your phone in your pocket, the camera glass will scratch.

I bought the olixar screen protector. Like the one I bought previously there is no cut out for the camera, even though it was shown in the ad on Amazon

I have a Mofi screen protector. It is fantastic at preventing fingerprints. It is, indeed a hard, tempered glass screen protector. It is edged in black, which matches up to the phone's small bezels. There is also a small black circle around the camera notch. I'm happy with it, especially comparing it to the smudgy, original plastic screen protector that came on the phone.
As far as cases go, I've also gotta hand it to Mofi - perfect fit and prefer the fabric cases. I cannot stand the fingerprint prone clear cases. I tried another one, in addition to the one that came with the phone, and I just cannot do it.

Protector for chrome on camera

is there any type of screen protector material for the chrome on the camera? I hear it gets scratched very easily
Maybe Zagg will make one. Most reviewers see how it scratches so easy.
AT&T will sell the Zagg full body at least. I'm going to try to cut out a custom fit from reg screen protector.
That's a pretty small piece to protect. Knowing Zagg, it'll be $10 + shipping for just that piece.
Alternatively, you can get a silicon skin for the whole phone which I heard fits pretty snug and doesn't add a lot of bulk.
I just bought the gel case and it keeps the back of the phone off the objects you lay it on

People just cut out a piece of clear packaging tape and put it over then chrome! I did just that

I used Incipio case and so far the chrome hasn't been scratched even though it's not completely covered.
food wrap film will do it
I bought the skinomi carbon fiber full body screen protector. It protects every part of the phone including the chrome. Got if from amazon. Might be something to consider.

Awesome idea.... Gonna go and do that now. Thanks man!
The store employees repeatedly offered me a "cleaning pad" that stuck to the back side of the phone. They put it on the camera metal. They would come take it off to wipe the screen and then just replace it on the back over the camera metal again.
I just got the Skinomi carbon fiber full body screen protector, and slapped it on. It looks good, but the quality of the clear screen protector is pretty bad. Not as noticeable when the phone is on, but could be much better. The warranty is lifetime, so I might get another. The carbon look parts look really good, and should protect against normal use.
. Ps, the clear screen protector hadn't dried yet. Now it looks fine. The carbon look is pretty cool..
The guys on this thread who have the Skinomi full body protectors, can you post some photos of it applied to the phone?
I'm in the UK and have a white 900,so I want to see which bits of the phone don't get covered by the skin as the bright white would be very noticable if there are fitment gaps.
I'm actually on my 2nd handset in a week as the buttons on the first one were loose and rattly. However, on that first handset the camera chrome got scuffed in just 2 days even though I kept the phone wrapped in a screen cleaning cloth. I've left the OEM protective film on my new one until I have something permanent, just like the OP has asked for.
As selection of colours for a chrome protector would be cool too. Hopefully someone will come up with this on eBay before long In the meantime I'll cut up a 'generic' screen protector into a make-shift skin for the chrome.
IGG full body protector also covers the chrome on the camera. The only cutout on the back cover is for the camera lens hole and the LED flash hole.
I'm using mine under the black cover so the shiny look isn't a bother for me. Just looking to protect the back from being scratched by the case (or debris that gets between the OEM case and the phone body) which I've seen happen on an N9.
I'm going to make one from a spare screen protector I have. I've just checked an the camera hole is the same size as you get from a hole-punch....so I've got a screen protecter here with me in the office today
Here's my temporary solution, a Nokia cover, a strip of electrical tape and a hole punch.
I'll try to get a decent one cut out so that I don't need to cover it up with the bumper. I may also see if a printing company I've worked with in the past would be able to knock up a few sheets of clear, single-coloured and maybe patterns or designs. Chances are it'll be too expensive, but it can't hurt to ask the question.
Bleh. The chrome on my camera is all scratched up. I hate how it's curved.

HandheldItems.com TPU Case and Matte Screen Protectors

Hey everyone, I wanted to provide some commentary briefly on the accessories I received for my One X yesterday from HandheldItems.com.
I ordered:
(1) black HTC One X TPU Case (Product Code EcHtcOneXTpuChkBlk) and
(3) HTC One X Matte Anti-glare Screen Protectors (Product Code HhiHtcOneXScnMat/HhiHtcOneXScnMatX3)
Comments:
First, the TPU case is good. It fits the ports wiht appropriate cutouts, it fits uniformly over the front of the device, and it looks nice. It is a glossy TPU case (I have seen some cases that are matte or are a mix of matte and glossy - this one is completely glossy). It provides several millimeters of depth to the front of the device to keep the screen from resting on whatever surface you might place the device down on. Also, the camera opening on the back of the device is such that it conforms to the camera lens surround and provide depth such that the lens doesn't touch whatever surface the phone is resting on. It does not however provide as much lens coverage as, for example, the Casemate Barely There cases. But it was also less than half the price of that case.
The screen protectors are unfortunately another story. The matte finish is nice and it reduces reflections considerably. Like any matte protector, it is evident that there is a screen protector on the device and the clarity of the screen is affected, but only minimally. If you're a purist though you may not like the look - I have always preferred matte screens. The fit is the problem with this product though. They are too long. To get the screen protector to adhere fully at the top of the screen, the bottom corners push off the screen onto the phone body and do not adhere. I tried two different screen protectors and had the same result (I ordered the three pack). Also, the screen protector only conforms to the curve on the top of the screen, not the bottom (I tried screen protectors in both orientations and it seems clear that the curve of the screen at the top of the phone is slightly more pronounced than the curve of the screen at the bottom of the phone). Also it would be nice if they were slightly wider because as is if you are slightly to the side then the full active portion of the screen will not be protected (there is only approximately 1mm of margin left/right).
Unfortunately I don't have any pictures to share as I didn't have an opportunity to take any but I think my commentary will give you the necessary info. I'll try to take some pictures this evening unless someone beats me to it.
Here are some pictures of the phone with the case and screen protector. Handhelditems.com is working with me to eliminate the concerns I have with the screen protectors.

So with the screen faced up, the lens cover doesn't touch the table, right? If so that would be fairly adequate protection (As it has been for my Optimus 2X). Does the screen protector fully adhere to the screen? I've had problems with phones that have curved edges on the sides of the glass. It makes it impossible to use static-based screen protectors and I'm no fan of the ones with water application.
some close up pictures for the camera lens area would be appreciated...good and short review...by the way,what's the price?

Any consensus on the best aftermarket tempered glass screen protector?

Firstly, I have read through many of the threads existing on protectors.
When I checked YouTube to see if there were any videos comparing screen protectors for the OPX there were none, so I watched a video comparing 4 screen protectors for a different phone. Of these Armorz and Bodyguardz protectors seemed to come out on top, and survive the strenuous tests the videomaker put them through. It seems neither of these brands make protectors for the OPX.
Next I searched this forum and read through many of the threads on the different screen protectors. For as many people that promote the different protectors, there seem to be as many if not more detractors, complaining of rainbox effect, the protector fitting one OPX but not another, air bubbles, etc.
I ordered my OPX today, and I intend to order a Spigen OnePlus X Case Rugged Armor Black but I was hoping to compliment that with a screen protector.
I was hoping to order the best protector, that will fit my OPX, no rainbox effect, and that will not cause any isue with the Spigen Case - does this exist?
Simple answer is it depends on luck.
I have tried several including 1+, Nillkin, generic, full cover... None of them are perfect, if you go for any like the official 1+ one where only the display is covered you may end up with horrid air bubbles around the cover, many people complained of this-I only know of one guy who done it flawlessly. The plus side of this is that cases will fit fine. The full cover one is the best one I've tried, though it has a rainbow effect in the middle of the screen which can be seen under bright light conditions or on a white screen. This screen protector doesn't have any air bubbles and fits great, only downside is the rainbow, some cases should fit fine e.g. I use the Nillkin frosted back cover which fits without issue.
For me the small rainbow is something I can deal with unlike the air bubbles around the whole display which were an eye sore, you'd be lucky if you didn't get any. So it is hit and miss tbh, just trial and error, I wasted a good £20 on protectors for this phone, which is something I'll never do again.
In the end I ordered from Amazon:
OnePlus X Screen Protector,Nillkin®[Anti-Explosion ][With Camera film][With Back Protector]Amazing H+Pro 9H Tempered Glass Screen Protector for OnePlus X
You mention the protector you use covers the whole phone, but the thing is that I also want the added protection of the Spigen OnePlus X Rugged Armour.
Accepting that they all have flaws, as I can probably still cancel my order and change it, and considering I want front screen protection AND the Spigen Rugged Armour case, do you think I would be better with a different protector than the Nilkin?
*Air bubbles are the main thing I wish to avoid, I could live with a Rainbox effect, once it is only visible from certain angles etc.?
It is a real shame there are non more protectors, I really was sold on Bodyguardz or Armorz protectors after watching the videos where they were tested, and was disappointed to discover they do not make protectors the OPX. I am guessing they do not think there is enough of a market to make it worth their while.
I had a look at the case and it seems that the Nillkin one is probably your best option, as the case covers the sides and slightly overlaps on the front-full protector covers the whole front so you may get issues with it.
Have a look for yourself, here is the one I bought (and currently use):
http://www.ebay.com/itm/281856280418
This is the issue, you could risk bubbles and use the spigen or avoid them, live with a rainbow and use another case. It's down to luck, you may not get any bubbles or rainbow depending on which one you use.
The first sentence in your reply is not so clear, you are saying the Nilkin it is the best option although I may still have issues with it?
I ordered the protector you linked to on eBay about a week ago, but it will take a few weeks to get here!
I do have my Nilkin H+ protector here, my Spigen Rugged Armor case, and my OnePlus X arrived about 15 minutes ago
I want to try apply the Nilkin cover right away - I will post picture for others - but what is the best method? I read somewhere on the forum that we should make sure to use the 'x method', but I cannot remember what x is?
The full cover protector covers the whole front, I mean edge to edge, so the case may not fit-it may conflict with the glass. The Nillkin one only covers the display/screen not the side edges/bezels so you will have no issues with the protector and case.
I have never heard of the 'x method' so don't know, but the best method I have used is with tape or alignment stickers (your protector may have came with them). So you carefully align the protector with the display, apply the tape so it stays in place, remove the film and just close the protector (like a book), apply some pressure in the centre and leave it for a few minutes. Oh and make sure there isn't any dust before applying the glass, use a microfibre cloth to clean.
Also, just to clear things up-you may have issues with the full cover glass protector (not Nillkin-I gave the ebay link previously), the only issue with the Nillkin one is that if you botch it, you will have an air gap around the whole glass. Though if your lucky you may not.
I think this is the x method:

I'm happy with it. The glass feels better then the plastic stock one.
Use the 'hinge method' to apply the screenprotector.

Though I haven't tried it myself.
Please upload some picture of your result when you are done
Used hinge method, still got the rainbow effect. I tried unhinging it a few times and cleaned both the screen and the protector and places it back on but there was always a rainbox effect - the last time I tried removing it the protector cracked
I was suspicious at the time when I tried installing the Nilkin Screen Protector, the plastic film removable cover of the protector was on the OUTSIDE of the tempered glass!!!!
WTF!
I know it was on the outside, and not the inside, because the holes in the glass for the front ear speaker and front camera would only line up when the film cover was on the outside, that is facing me as I looked down at the phone. This was the first tempered glass screen protector I ever tried to install, so I assumed I must be mistaken and continued trying to install.
From the videos I have looked again, it seems that this film cover should always be on the inside of the protector (before being removed), that is, on the side of the tempered glass that will be touching the screen of the phone?
Thanks, yes that is the method, see my comments on how it did not work and how I think they somehow sent me a screen protector with the film cover on the wrong side.
xx
As you can see the plastic film protector is on the wrong side of the tempered glass, well, if you want the holes for the speaker and camera to line up!
http://i.imgur.com/VJU5LC7.jpg"]http://i.imgur.com/VJU5LC7.jpg
Yeah, the film is on the inside, the side that attaches to the screen, peeling the plastic sheet off exposes the adhesive bit which sticks to the glass. Just saw the pictures, bad luck man. I got through like 3-4 protectors before settling-if that makes you feel better.
Then I am not losing my mind! Did you see the picture I posted?
Amazon are refunding me at least. I hate that I could not apply a protector to the brand new screen.
Like I said before, I have ordered the one you recommended but it will take some weeks to arrive, and I think you said it will not fit with my Spigen Rugged Armor case anyway.
Can you recommend any others and I will order now? I am in Ireland so possible options are Amazon UK or ebay, though I guess I can order from anywhere really.
As this device is relatively new (only a few months old) there are not many variations of protectors available. As far as I am aware there is the Nillkin type which covers the screen only and the full cover which covers the whole front. I got the ebay one in about a week (China to London), I chose standard delivery (its free and faster than economy).
Check the image in my post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65705849&postcount=37
That is the full cover one, I had an issue and got it replaced, now it only has a slight rainbow-but I can live with it.
TIFU - I did not realise the second smaller hole in the Nilkin tempered glass was for the proximity sensor, the camera has no hole...

Any Cases that Cover the entire frame?

Hi
I bought a oneplus one about 3 months ago and I absolutely love it however I dropped it a while ago and everything is fine but the frame area to the left of the charging port is completely jacked up :/ chunks of it are missing too...
I'm currently using the oneplus flip cover however it doesn't cover it up, so my question is: is there any light tpu/hard shell case that covers up the entire silver bezel, or at least the bottom of the phone so I don't have to look at this anymore xD. All cases I've seen so far leave a bit of the bottom frame exposed just enough so you can see the damage :'(
Anyone know any case that can cover it up?
Thanks!
I advise you to look for the "Diztronic" TPU case, covers completely the silver frame, following the contour of the screen. There's just a 1 cm spot where the frame is visible, at the bottom of the cover, near the hole for the USB cable, but in normal use is not visible. It's 6 months that I'm using this cover in combination with a tempered glass and I'm really satisfied.
Guess it all depends on what kind of protection you want. If you just want mild protection and to just cover the sides, then go with the tpu case. If you want heavy protection, I would suggest the Tudia Omnix Hybrid, http://www.amazon.com/TUDIA-Full-body-Protective-Protector-Resistant/dp/B00SO4XYHA . I have the Tudia case and it has taken a beating and protected the phone very well, even from some pretty high falls. Only con about the Tudia case, is that the front covers the sides of the screen a bit and prevents touch at the the very edges of screen. This can be a bit bothersome if using apps in full screen/landscape when you have to swipe down to exit full screen.

I totally agree, couldn't have said it better. Here are some visuals for you. I got the Diztronic case when I bought the phone, it has protected it from falling out a car, off the desk, and off a moderately high shelf. You can get a tempered glass screen protector off eBay, have to search a bit (TechArmor don't have one). I got one from user dreamlight2004 for around 5 dollars. I made the mistake of getting the OPO screen protector when i first got my phone and it went bad a month ago, a hard scratch from a key. Tempered glass protector looks so much better. Just loaded COS13, it should keep me busy until the OP3 gets announced - so far it's looking to be a really good phone (boo on the OP2 and OPX)

I agree, Diztronic bumpers are terrific.
I'm using this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rearth-Case-OnePlus-One-Folie-Ringke-Fusion-Schutzhulle-Cover-Tasche-klar-/121715293296?hash=item1c56cbfc70:g:gAUAAOSwT6pVt5tV And it is awesome. You can also print your designs for this case!
Ringke Fusion for me is great. It covers the OPO completly.
DO NOT BUY THE TUDIA CASE.
I bought it because I thought it looked pretty sweet. It's the worst case I have ever owned, and I have owned a few. Half the case is slippery nonsense plastic. You grab your phone "wrong" (by this I do not mean insecurely, but simply you happen to not have your fingers on enough of the case's rubber outline), it's like holding an eel.
The clips covering the audio jack and usb port are an absolute NIGHTMARE to open, and plugging in your charger for the night would realistically take three hands with 17 fingers each to manage in a reasonable timeframe. Good thing my audio jack's clip, after having been used exactly twice without even the slightest bit of the abuse it deserved, now no longer clips into it's crevice, and is permanently hanging out at a 30 degree angle. The pop-out clip on the back is nail ruining torture to get out, as is the rubber outline holding the front of the case, should you want to get this garbage off to see how far you can launch it through the air in rage.
I wouldn't use this piece of junk if they paid me.
I am using the TUDIA Dual-Layer case+a glass screen protector, which turned my One to a tank
I drop it way too often, but it still works flawlessly, so I can recommend this case. It also coverers the aluminum frame
I can rep the Poetic Case found here:
I took out the screen protector but I have been rocking the case for more than a year. It is kinda bulky but I have no worries about dropping it or tossing my phone on my desk. Also, It is kinda water resistant (with the screen protector). I have dropped like a glass of water on it and quickly cleaned it up with no harm

Honor 9 Cases, Screen Protectors and other Accessories

Since there is only a thread for the Nillkin cases and tempered glass I thought it would be nice to have some thread for the accessories in general.
Until this day I tried 3 cases, two screen protectors (films) and two tempered glass protectors.
Case No. 1 ) Slim, silicone case http://www.ebay.com/itm/Transparent-Clear-Silicone-Slim-Gel-Case-For-Huawei-Honor-9/112446352466?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 - Very slim and light case made from nice silicone BUT the protection when dropped would be none. It's not made 100% precisely and since it's silicone it doesn't look any good on the back where it creates bubbles. I've ordered this as the first case to have at least some protection. Nice thing is they include free screen protector but the quality isn't very good - doesn't cover the whole display (I'm not talking about edge-to-edge) and there are 2mm gaps on each side and when the display is on it looks terrible. 2/5
Case No. 2) Nillkin Super Frosted http://www.ebay.com/itm/For-HUAWEI-Honor-9-NILLKIN-Super-Frosted-Shield-Hard-Plastic-Back-Covers-Cases-/152596952252?var=&hash=item23877cb4bc:m:mtNLCAV-KRHaAK2TUOYLPTg - very nice case, really sturdy BUT I have few complaints - it's kinda slippery on the sides but this will go away after some use maybe and the bottom side around jack, charging port and speaker is a bit sharp and if you're holding the phone with the little finger on the bottom it't not really comfortable. Besides that it's really nice case for the price but I expected a bit more. But once again for the price it's more than OK. 4/5
Case No. 3) TPU Shockproof case with "carbon" http://www.ebay.com/itm/Luxury-Carbon-Fiber-Slim-Shockproof-Soft-TPU-Back-Case-For-Huawei-Honor-9-Magic/112325496837?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=412748326145&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 - as you can imagine, there is absolutely no carbon at all, just some kind of "sticker" or what it is. Nevermind, this case is the best of the three. Really nice case made from TPU, sturdy, should have the best drop protection and fits just perfectly. There is a small "rim" around the screen that should protect the screen from scratches when the phone is "face down". 5/5
Screen protector (film) No. 1) Nillkin Super Clear Protective Film - in terms of size the best screen protector I've had. Obviously it's not edge-to-edge but it does cover the whole display with gaps on the edges BUT the display is fully protected so thumbs up for me. In terms of "anti-fingerprint" it's nowhere close to the display or the back but is much better than some noname protector I've got with TPU case. Overall very nice screen protector for free but I'm still waiting for the Nillkin H+ tempered glass and some noname edge-to-edge tempered glass. 4/5
Tempered glass No. 1) Edge-to-edge blue 2.5D tempered glass http://www.ebay.com/itm/9H-2-5D-Full-Cover-Real-Tempered-Glass-Screen-Protective-Film-For-Huawei-honor-9/152593109357?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=452016649496&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 - really nice tempered glass (2 pcs) for the price. It has the adhesive only on the top, bottom and the sides but the application was very easy and the glass holds on even with any of tested cases. It has some "dots" in the screen area so I got no rainbow effect whatsoever. The blue color is a bit different from the original color od the phone but it's not a problem since you have your phone in a case. Overall for the price pretty good. 4/5
Tempered glass No. 2) Normal tempered glass Caliber (bought in CZE) - not edge-to-edge, doesn't cover the whole screen, gaps on the sides. Overall sh*t. 1/5
Still waiting for the Nillkin H+ tempered glass.
Nilkin Amazing H+ Pro is No Go
Got the 0.2mm H+ Pro. It's cover the display area for like 99%, with-out just about 0.5mm on each side, after all still the best.
BUT. The silicon layer doesn't hold the tempered glass on both sides, looks like the phone display curve started a bit earlier than its needed for the protector.
It doesn't stick to the display, making it looks like ****, with 3mm frame from each side. Top/bottom sides stick OK, all the way to edges.
So Nilkin Amazing H+ Pro is No Go for me.
Well, got it yesterday so I'm still waiting to try it but not sure if wan't to :laugh:
cases
sooooo, I bought these from tvc mall. They were so cheap that I bought three different ones with the intent of disposing of whichever were poor. Thing is, they are all good in their own way. The plain bumper is just very slimline. The rugged looking one is cool as it has a stand in landscape mode, and the wallet is exceptional quality, given the price. All three fit perfectly, but the plain bumper makes the power and volume buttons so much more tactile. The rugged one looks really cheap in silver, perhaps black would have been a good choice. As i wasn't expecting much from the wallet one, I also oredered the nilkin wallet but that hasn't arrived yet.

I have also ordered the ultimate sheild screen protector, which is edge to edge, in black as I think it will make an excellent contrast to the silver rear of the handset....which wont be visible when the (absolutely necessary) bumper is fitted!
Ultimate sheild screen protector
.... And the ultimate sheild protector turned up. It is excellent. A word of caution, unless this is fitted absolutely perfectly, it will render one or both of the capacitance keys inoperable. This happened to me as i fitted the sheild a fraction of a millimetre to the right. I carefully removed and replaced it with more accuracy.
Here is a pic of the black sheild fitted to my silver H9, and a photo of the plain bumper fitted from my previous post. Svelt but rugged!
After a couple of hours of use I can say that there has been no loss of sensitivity on the screen or capacitive buttons, but on darker details and the blacks, it does look like the screen is behind a sheet of glass. You will know what i mean if you have used a screen protector which bonds over its entirety, whereas this one has a mild adhesive at the top and bottom of the protector, where the bezels are. A small price to pay i think to protect my new device. It is mostly noticeable in bright light, not so much in low light. And I love the new black look of the bezels with the silver fingerprint sensor still visible.
Right, so, some more hours on....the ultimate sheild has begun to show its flaws. Towards the middle of the screen there is now what i can only describe as a "woodgrain" effect. This could be caused by tiny amounts of moisture getting between the screen and protector, which I guess there is nothing to stop that happening. They offered a refund for dissatisfaction so I guess I will be chasing that up. Pfffft. So disappointed.....
Is there a smart cover for it ?!
Just bought the TPU Shockproof case and it is amazing! It's a very good quality and it doesn't makes the phone feel like a toy.
I really like it and definitely recommend it!

Just bought the TPU Shockproof case and it is amazing! It's a very good quality and it doesn't makes the phone feel like a toy.

Can you upload a photo of the phone with the case applied?! That would be awesome
The nilkin "sparkle series" wallet turned up. Its awful. Unlike the cheap wallet I purchased, which remains closed under magnetism, the nilkin just falls open and feels poorer quality.
The Ipaky bumper with the clear perspex back is, however, very nice. The only caveat, it sits flush with the screen so offers no protection if you decide to place your device screen down.
I'm waiting for the smart cover case, if it didn't come fast, I'll go with a skin.
I have bought an honor 9 few days ago. Somebody could suggest me a screen protector that cover whole display? With 3D display is so difficult find a good screen protector....

Thanks.
I don't like this type of tempered glass (i know that is the only solution for cover 3d display without space).
So, someone has tested "invisible film screen protector"?

:good:
If someone else has tried this protective film, please give us a feedback.
Did someone try the Mofi screen protector? According to a review on Aliexpress it has minimal space at both sides.
I've seen ones from ultimate shield, I'm considering getting one.

Good luck with that. Did you read my earlier post? As the protector does not actually sit on the screen, due to the adhesive around the edges, it is susceptible to the "rainbow effect" which i think is caused by humidity between screen and protector. It seemed to manifest itself after the phone had been in my pocket and warmed up. I don't have an overly sweaty crotch.....
Anyhow, they apologised and promptly sent a replacement and the same happened again.
By all means give it a go and they will refund you without issue.
