Does the Mate 20X Ship with 2 Screen Protectors Pre-installed? - Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers

When I 1st got my mate 20x I noticed it came with a flimsy plastic screen protector that you can peel off. But I also noticed another protector underneath. It looks glass. I want to remove it. Is this another screen protector also?

The first film is similar to what's on the back of the phone, it's merely a shipping protection film. The one underneath is a factory applied plastic screen saver. Most people chose to keep the factory applied one on until it scuffs up, some remove it as they prefer the feel of glass.

Why would you need this if screen isn't curved? I have a Pixel 2 XL. And liquid adhesive is a expensive and a pain to install.
Tempered glass
Is the Nilkins tempered glass compatible with the clear case provided in the box?
I have installed 2 tempered glass and both will have air bubles when used together with clear case provided in the box
2nd question, anybody has experience using screen protector clearplex or X-one?

That is a plastic screen protector, most people install glass to protect their phone.

I removed mine to install glass. Better protection.
Yea! You can install glass over it. I did it on my first glass screen protector but the screen is not as clear to install glass alone.

Expensive, yes. I find easy to install though and while it has more steps it is far easier to get a perfect type fit, in the end. Regular temp glass lifts off, gets stuff under the edges, and is prone to that oil slick effect - the liquid adhere types solve those issues and aside from better fit/feel they last longer.
Hmm seeing as the Mate 20X screen is mostly flat and a little curve at the extreme edge (similar to iphones), is there any decent full coverage (those with the black borders) tempered glass for it?
I've seen a few at the shops but when i test fit them over my screen i can see that the black border covers some of the pixels of the screen, making it look like "surrounded" or "covered". like if you were to view an old website (where they put absolutely no padding at all) the left and the right side of the text will be cut off (Eg, the first letter "A", probably the left leg will be cut off)
This is also a problem I noticed with my iPhone X, most full coverage tempered glass being sold have their black borders a little too thick and will "eat" into the screen when applied, so far the only tempered glass i know of that has black borders and not exhibit this issue is the one by spigen (google for pics), their black border is thin enough that it does not interfere with the screen.
Wondering if such a product exists for the Mate 20 X?
I have the black border Tempered Glass on my Mate 20 X and also i have used these black borders Tempered glass for my Xiaomi Mi Mix 18K. Yes, it is true, they ,, eat '' a little bit from the screen edges, but i would rather prefer these and have a full coverage rather than the crystal clear ones and have the screen protected like 90%... as those dosen't fit on the entire screen. I don't mind at all the borders... it's only about 2mm , barely notice in everyday use...
So, if you guys want to have full coverage and full protection for the screen, goes for the black borders tempered glass... my honest opinion...

Those only have adhesive around the edges correct? Dot matrix and some rainbow effect, no?

I've currently found one (google hoda mate 20 x tempered glass, I can't post links), 1st or second result, the black borders seem to be rather thinner, might want to order one to test but its about $20

That's true, rainbow effect and matrix, but i don't mind at all, is better to protect the entire screen rather than just 90% of the surface...
The matrix and rainbow effect is visible only with the screen off, with the screen turned on you can't see these effects...
I would still love to find a Whitestone type adhesive temp glass protector if anyone comes across a good one they would recommend.

You could grab those black border style adhesive at sides type tempered glass and convert it to those full loca glue type, just strip away all the extra film and leave it with the bare glass, then just get those spare glue tubes used in whitestone and apply it yourself, i did the same thing with my XZ2 Compact seeing no one sells a whitestone type full coverage protector so i did it myself
But for now, I am quite happy with my Nillkin H+ tempered glass (especially coming from me, since i am the type that normally prefers those full coverage full adhesive types), yes, it does not go all the way to the edge but as i'm using it with the provided huawei TPU case it fits just fine, more important is to protect the screen and get back that "glass" touch.

Suitable Screen Protectors For Your New Huawei Mate 20 X ?

Which screen protector are you using (if any) ?
I've just come across this one:
https://www.amazingat.com/product-page/2-5d-full-glass-for-huawei-mate-20x
Case friendly too apparently
What do you guys think !
Still rocking the original screen protector from the factory. In search of the perfect glass protector though.
I'm using Nilkin HD+. Good finger print smudge protection. Case friendly. Only negative is is cut short. About 1 mm gap around. Slight rainbow effect on sides. Good for $10.

The problem is, the film ones don't protect against much. It will protect against light scratches and that's pretty much it.
The glass screen protects against light and heavy scratches and it also protects against screen breaks.

I've never scratched a screen that had a pet film protector on it. The only thing I care about are the scratches. Most of the time when you drop your phone it lands on one of the corners so it doesn't matter if you have a glass protector on or not. I hate the extra thickness of the glass ones and I hate that they crack way too easily. I'd rather spend $1.50 on protectors than $5 or $10 for each one and then have them crack a week or two later.

Screen protector

Hey guys how many of you have left the pre installed screen protector on? And does the actual screen hold up to scratches ok and does the naked screen get fingerprints as bad as the screen protector does?

The pre-installed "screen protector" is a very thin piece of plastic similar to the ones you peel off new phones. I put my phone in my pocket with a few keys for a few hours and I was shocked to see TEARS (not scratches) all over the screen. So I immediately removed it to realize it's just thin plastic. I also noticed colors/brightness looked better without it as plastic is not as clear as glass and it affects screen visuals.
The actual screen has Gorilla Glass 3 it should resist scratches but a real screen protector is highly recommended.

Yes mate display looks even more impressive after you remove it glad it helped
The gorilla glass is really soft on this one, so it does scratch a lot (at least in my case). So now I got a tempered glass to mask the scratches and prevent new one from happening.
I just peeled off pre applied from my A70 , I use flip cover

My UK model, bought from the official Samsung online store, didn't come with a factory installed screen protector.
I'm running the latest May update but still find the fingerprint sensor only works 30% of the time despite registering the same thumb 3 times over.
I have a tempered glass protector on, but the sensor was just as poor without it. I find I use face unlock more than anything.
I can live with it, but it's quite a disappointing experience!

I ordered the whitestone dome TG to use with the ringke slim and it looks like its either going to be a very tight fit or it wont fit. I dont want to attempt to fit it as il be returning it to amazon
Anyone find a good glass screen protector for the front?
The whitestone ones are not that great. Im going to try with a Hydrogel version
I have been using hydrogel and it's great. I even scratched the screen protector with a tool at work. I thought I had to replace it but a day later it's as good as new. I am very surprised at the self healing.

I am using the Spigen Glas with the Spigen Slim Fit P case and it is sized to fit nicely inside the front raised edges. I really like it for use with Spigen cases. Not sure how it will look with other cases with thinner edged front protectors.
My front and main screen protectors started developing small scratches. I'm too OCD to let that slide so I removed both of them. Much happier now, lol.

Yes, no screen protector in the box, and it is frustrating. I think Samsung is reducing the use of plastic so they are selling it separately you can try the Gadgetshieldz film screen protector which is really good and it is made from nano polymer and it can self-heal the scratches occur on it!

well they are pushing on using less plastic and going carbon neutral so that might be the reason orr..... might just be cost
Typically plastic film works less with yltrasonic sensors.
Try a glass one.
Mine came with a screen protector. I took it off and put a tempered glass on.
They do it so they can claim to be green while passing the waste and cost to the end consumer who's going to end up buying it all anyway.

I don't like it too but they are far more scratch resistant than plastic film. I have bought cheap hydrogel film from Aliexpress and fews days after, you already get some scratches. Same with a more expensive one, the Spigen Neoflex, totally useless as it scratches too easily.
So now, only tempered glass...

That's why I suggested a Gadgetshieldz film screen guard which is not completely plastic and it can heal the scratches as I'm using one, I don't see the scratches they all disappear within minutes!
yh no plastic but they include that first protector with the little tab that it's not meant to be used as a film protector.
I mean, they could just include a proper film to give the user the choice to either keep it or peel it off.
so no screen protector on the phone out of the box- and the reason is to reduce plastic waste. I got the official samsung screen protector from the samsung shop- there is four times the amount of plastic waste in the packing as well as the box it came in. This is a load of samsung BS , just another revenue stream to upsell

If Samsung sees this comment they will just give away the protector as usual! Plastic waste is just a concept for them to earn extra money for the protectors!!!
