Tempered glass screen protector that works with the fingerprint reader on the s21 - Samsung Galaxy S21 Accessories

Which Tempered glass screen protector that works with the fingerprint reader on the s21

I know this has been discussed pretty extensively. I have tried the SuperShieldz tempered glass. By raising sensitivity and reregistering my fingerprints I was able to get it to work sporadically. I switched to the Zagg Glass Fusion and after reregistering my fingerprints, it works pretty much as good as without a screen protector. The only issue with the Zagg is that it is not Tempered glass but rather "hybrid glass". The first one peeled on one corner (my fault because I played with it) but since the replacement, I have had no issues and love it.

Hello,
Spigen Glas.tR EZ Fit works ok for me - not as good as without glass, but ok.
Best regards,
Hendrik

Anti fingerprint screen protector

Can anyone recommend a really good anti fingerprint screen protector?
Zagg Invisible Shield.
I hear the ipad screen protectors are the way to go.
Other option., I use from the optician, cleaning spray for glasses & their cleaning cloth.
i use the zagg invishield which really is only for the no fingerprints than any protection of the screen
I recommend the screens protectors from http://www.spigen.com They are top notch

Hi,
I can definitely recommend the SGP Wi-Fi Only Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Screen Protector Steinheil Series [Ultra Optics].
They have a little higher price but top quality. I'm using it for my Desire HD and my Galaxy Tab.
I bought it from the SGP shop on Ebay but also Amazon.com is selling them.
Cheers
Stefan
i think the anti fingerprint protector should be excellent quality, perfectly adhering to the iphone screen.

Tempered Glass pros and cons vs Film screen protectors?

What the pros and cons of tempered glass screen protector vs a Film screen protector?
My concern about the Tempered glass is that :
--it's adhesive is only on the bezel area and since phones today have smaller bezel so it might get detached easily
--Tempered Glass might scratch the glass beneath it
--If adhesive of the Tempered glass became less sticky Dust might accumulate inside
So can you tell me your experience with tempered glass screen protector? I really want to hear from someone who used this screen protector for long time and not on these reviews on youtube since they only used it on the time they review it.
And also does anyone tried using combination of Film and T.glass protectors?
I also second this. Anyone that has this screen protector please respond.

I just found out that Spigen is selling a new type of tempered Glass screen protector it is "GLAS.T" it's different from the old one. This new one is all transparent and has adhesive all through-out the back part of the screen protector, unlike the old one which has paint on the borders and only adhesive on the painted area.
Spigen has GLAS.T for Note 1 Anyone that used the product for about 5-6 months now?

I have a tempered glass screen protector for my Note 3 and it fits and works perfectly. It's been on my phone for 2 months now. Not a single scratch to it and no peeling or dust accumulation at all. I would recommend one any time over a plastic protector. I got mine from a company called fasttech. They are very cheap compared to UK sellers and the company is very reliable even considering that they are Chinese.
Tempered glass has an adhesive throughout the whole surface, not only the bezel/perimeter area.
The difference is very simple. If you want scratch protection, get a film screen protector, but make sure to get quality PET 3H hardness film like the one sold by iSmooth and Spigen. Cheap ebay stuff is thin, will scratch, will bubble after some time, and will have rainbow effect under the florescent light. If you want ultimate shatter protection - get tempered glass. On impact the glass will shatter without affecting your display. Spigen and Seidio makes some of the best ones. I'm personally a big fan of Seidio VITREO and been using it on my Note 2 for a very long time.
for LG g2 temperate glass or we don't have to buy anything
I use the tempered glass for the LG G2, i think its better than a film protector.
No bubbles nothing, very clean. if you dont look at the edges u wont see there is a protector.

i've really no bubbles, just use the type method to remove bubles cause by dust.
the cons is that film protector changes a bit the polarization of my glass so it has more strange effect on very high view angle

The advantages of T. glass over films are the following.
-. Scratch - (almost)free : sellers boast it is harder than stock display, but I don't agree with. Glass screen protector also gets scratch.
-. Superb feeling : yes. its feeling is real better even stock display including any premium film. http://vimeo.com/91463403
-. Bubble -Free : Yes. it is easy to install and you don't worry about bubble.
Disadvantages
-. Price : $5~40 : I have tried $5 and 40 as well. I don't recommend both $5 and $40. you can find good one between them.
-. Thickness :0.15~0.4mm : Compared to film, it is bulky. Sometimes it won't be compatible with certain cases. (I don't recommend too thin one, since it is easy to brake before doing its protection job)
i have used a glass screen protector for the last month until it broke when i dropped my phone from hip height. i am extremely satisfied by the product. as it is rigid, it is very easy to apply and in contrast with plastic film protectors, the tempered glass lets your fingers glide on the screen. i was also impressed by the fact that after 1 month's use my phone had zero scratches, even though i was kind of provoking scratches by the way i was handling the phone. never going back to plastic film, not a slight chance there.
I've run a gauntlet recently with screen protectors and cases with my galaxy s7 edge. I can definitely tell you the pros and cons between tempered glass and soft film screen protectors.
Tempered glass pros- much sturdier, better scratch resistance, looks better. Easier to install. Longer field life. Better phone protection all around.
Tempered glass cons: some cases won't work with tempered glass unless it has a top that fully covers the glass. Dust buildup under screen protector, less sensitivity- much less. Won't work with an otterbox symmetry because the sides and front push the glass up and out but does work with the defender because the defender covers the edge of the screen. If sand or dirt gets underneath glsss, it could scratch up your screen. Very thick too.
PET film pros- better sensitivity, will work with any phone case. Sturdy enough for the most part. No issues with dust buildup under the cover. Works with any case and has better adherence. Very thin.
PET cons- they look cheap and scratch more easily than tempered glass and you can tell that the phone has a screen protector. Harder to install. The protector scratches but the phone screen doesn't. Shorter field life.
Personally, I prefer PET film screen protectors to tempered glass but to be fair, I have an edge phone and glass screen protectors with edge phones can be more finicky than flat phones. Glass looks better, but aside from drop protection and looks, they don't keep the dirt out and can be a chore with the wrong kind of cases, or simply won't work.
I think film is much more versatile and I'm willing to trade some aesthetics in favor of usability. That's my 2 cents on both types of screen protectors based on recent experience.

And liquid bubbles with soft cases go away in a few days. Air must be popped and dust must be removed physically but moisture does dry out. You can tell a moisture bubble because it has rainbow swirls if you view the phone on a screen with a white background.
Don't try to iron out small moisture bubbles or press them out. They go away on their own within a week and if you mess with them you can bend your soft screen protector out of shape or get divot lines.
Also, if the soft screen protector has the oleophobic coating, it does work very well, in fact it's almost if not better about prints and crap on the screen than actual glass screens. Plus, tempered glass can be a problem on certain phones.
My friend has a note 5 with a tempered glass screen protector and he dropped his phone (no case) so instead of the screen shattering, the back of the phone did. Protectors work, but if you have a glass coated phone- better have a case on it.

Screen Protector Thin Film for OP2

I need the original screen protector thin film for op2 just as it comes with mobile officially. Can anybody suggest me such a screen protector coz tempered glass is bulky but this thin protector is awesome.
Thanks.
How about the original oneplus two screen protector.
http://www.amazon.in/OnePlus-2-Prem...&sr=8-4&keywords=oneplus+two+screen+protector
I know its costly but this is either the one that comes by default or can only be better.
or buy the Nillkin Tempered Glass 9H + Pro. Normal screen protectors have 0.1mm, stock tempered glasses have 0.3mm and this one has 0.2mm. Most of my friends think it's a non tempered glass because of how thin it is, and it is pretty protective.
The plastic screen protectors are a waste of time. They scratch in few weeks and definitely doesn't protect you touch from breaking if dropped. Better go for the glass screen protectors.

Screen Protector or Tempered Glass

I have ordered OnePlus 5T and it will be delivered in 2 days. I want to know that is it compulsory to apply screen protector or tempered glass? Or it will be find without it?
OP 5T comes with preapplied screen protector that is good enough quality for me, at least until it scraches
I applied a tempered glass protector to mine and am regretting it. I have now ordered a plastic protector to replace the glass ASAP. If I had known before, I would have kept the OnePlus plastic on!
Same for me, the OEM tempered glass is the worst I've ever seen, If I knew I never changed the plastic that was not perfectly installed but at least it won't have the corners with some parts without glue and now it looks with bubbles in that corners
Really? Is the official tempered glass screen protector bad? Going by videos I've watched people seem to really like it.
So, I am guessing there is no need to apply any screen protector or tempered glass as screen protector is already preapplied . Right?
Correct!
I regret that I pilled off pre-applied screenprotector. All current TGSP are garbage. If protection is you concern, do not pill off pre-applied screenprotector and order decent case from Spigen.
Thanks mate

Accessories Screen protectors

Thank god we finally have a flat screen Android flagship device! This means that searching for the perfect screen protector is easy, right? Right?!
Nope. Tried 2 already:
Nillkin H+Pro, 0,2mm temperes glass. Thin enough to work with the fingerprint sensor but covers only the display portion, none of the bezels. Because of this, it gets the rainbow effect on the sides.
Spigen ez fit rtc. Tempered glass. Pretty good coverage (could be better) but the thickness interferes with the fp sensor, it works very slow with this one.
So...where to buy "the one to rule them all". Full coverage, edge to edge (maybe with black borders) and sufficient compatibility with the fp sensor. Share your experiences!
I use https://www.caseologycases.com/products/galaxy-s22-screen-protector-snap-fit and registered the FP after applying the glass. I am satisfied. 9 off 10 attempts work.

I'm 90% sure that this is the same as the Spigen one. Fp works but is slower. It is cheaper though!
I tried to get a tempered glass installed, but the Samsung store person informed me that the ultrasonic fingerprint reader is a hit and miss so I went with a GadgetShieldz scratch guard as of now. But I'm keen on understanding others' experiences on tempered glass.
I personally don't like tempered glass ones, I'm more concerned about scratches than it falling. So I went with Samsung's own screen protector, got it at my local store and asked them to put it on there.
I prefer matte screen protectors hence I got this one: https://a.aliexpress.com/_vBWviH
I like it very much, it's practically edge to edge, I'd say about .5mm gap.
My experience with glass screen protectors is that, unless they're bonded with a light cured adhesive, the fingerprint scanner stops working reliably after a few hours. Re-registering the fingerprints or increasing touch sensitivity in settings does not significantly improve the situation. Outside of the fingerprint sensor issue, this generation of tempered glass screen protectors, most of which use a snap-on frame to guide their installment, work very well and seem to be case friendly.
For me, these are the best:
- Screen protector: https://www.spigen.com/collections/...otector-neo-flex-solid?variant=40414744346671
- Case: https://www.spigen.com/collections/...s22-5g-case-liquid-air?variant=40498618499119

The most important would be is your mid/long term experience with it.
Simply indicating what did you choose in the end is pointless in my opinion.
I hate GeekSquad but, they do at least one thing right: they install good screen protector. Just go to BestBuy and ask for a custom screen protector. They will install a ClearPlex protector with a special machine and it has a lifetime warranty. Cost: 30$ CAD. No problem with fingerprint sensor... Plus: if you ever find scratches, you can use a heatgun to repair it. The plastic will "self-repair".

I use the same phone cover that can self-heal the scratches and it really works, the scratches disappear within a few minutes. I got it from Gadgetshieldz for just $12 and it is giving good protection also fingerprint works fine! This S22 screen protector is better than the Samsung protectors.
I used the Whitestone and two cracked in 2 weeks.
They take a month to respond never buying again

I have Spigen's EZ-fit tempered glass on my S22 and can't really say I like it. The fingerprint reading is very hit-and-miss. And this even after I deleted fingerprints made before installing the protector and new ones recorded after. Using it from the AOD screen nearly never works. Once active it seems to be less problematic than for AOD, but not well enough to be called "good".

Dinamo mentioned a different product. It is not tempered glass but a very soft TPU with sprayed adhesive. Hopefully it works fine cause I just ordered it. I think Samsung screen protectors in Galaxy s10 time was exactly the same.
Hello, I have tried to put 2 different screen protectors on my phone and with both of them I have a problem of not sticking on the edges!! any of you have the same problem? one of them is the Spigen's EZ-fit!!! Thanks
