Has anyone found somewhere with screen protectors for the Ameo (that will have stock before 15th April)?
My Ameo is getting delivered tomorrow, and I'm thinking that if I wait till 15th April, my screen will be scratched to bits by then. All the screen protector will get to do will be to neatly seal and preserve the scratches! ;-)
HI,
My T-mobile Ameo(The Netherlands) was delivered with a screenprotector
But the quality isn't as good as the UltraClears from Brando. But it's something. I will replace it when Brando has them for the Ameo.

be careful of the original screen protector, when you remove it, it might leaves a mask on the screen !! one of my friend used the original screen protector, and when he removed it, the screen surface got "lift up", so the surface is no longer flat!!! he has to send back and get a exchange at the end.
I am also looking for screen protector, i have contact Martin Field, and they say they will release one soon when they get the screen measurement.
there is a better choise i beleve, which is full body shield

Now this I like the look of. Durability! But how is the quality of the actual Screen protector? Is it like Boxwaves Clearview or 99% Anti-reflection...bla bla bla?
This is important as I don't want to loose the sharpness of the display or much of the touch sensitivity of the screen.
@wu5262:
Thanks for the warning(and all your other comments in the Athena section. I read them (almost) all).
I will be very carefull when peeling the screen protector off. And will order another one as soon as possible.
@lawbet7eb:
Thanks for the tip; Did you trey those yourself already? I Like to know how good they are on the screen. And if they give the same clearness as the Brando UltraClears or Boxwaves screen protectors.
I just oredered one, so I will test it and share the results with you guys!
@ dpbakker: Ik verwacht de protectie as vrijdag binnen te hebben!
Thanks/Dank je wel
I will wait with ordering then
Hi,
I couldn't wait and already got this screen/device protection and applied it.
It works verry wel and is, in my opinion, better/clearer than the original screen protector. It feels thicker dan the original one but the touch screen works as well as before. I also applied the protection on the rest of the device. That works OK as well. But the disadvantage of protection is that it is flexibel in the way that you can stretch the 'plastic'. So be very carefull when applying it. The protection for arround the screen was the only one not working for me. Mine wasn't cut out OK and I streched it to much. :-( So I threw it away.

is it possible for you to post some picture of it? how does it feel? does it make your device feel like a huge plastic?
I will make some pictures tonight( need a second camera for that).
It feels a bit plastic, but I don't mind. The Ameo is in it's case most of the time. If you touch the screen with your stylus then it feels a bit sticky, but you can drag arround the screen with your stylus with no problem. It is however difficult to apply the protection withou any bubble, but maybe I'm just a bit clumsy with that.
As promissed, the pictures.
I've got it also as of todayand I'm also positive avout this invisible shield protector. Indeed be carefull with getting of the plastic from the paper. Also use a lot of water (delivered with the package) because then you can position the shield the best. An other tip: use a tissue to get rid of the water between the shield and the screen.
Works perfect.
+ very easy to install
+ good protection for all sites of the device
+ very clear en bright
- easy to cut the thinner parts in 2
- he plasic is reel soft like a kind of thin rubber, so if you drag over the screen using your stylus feels like you stuck in the plasic a bit. Maybe this will get a bit better after a couple of day's.
Conclusion: 8+ (out of 10) so buy it!

Thanks for the heads-up - I've ordered mine now.
(And I can second the recommendation - I've tried a few different screen protectors before, and the Martin Fields one I used on my Universal was by far the best.)
Maybe Brando UltraClear would be the best solution???

Sounds good to me - have just ordered some Martin Fields protectors! Just can't wait for my Ameo now!
I bought a pack of Writeright things YEARS ago, and have been using the same pack ever since. However due to the size of the Ameo screen they come nowhere near filling it.
A shame, they are amazing.
The stock one that came with it is a bit sticky for my liking, and a tiny bit too narrow. I have over a 1mm gap at the right because I lined up at the left edge exactly.
Im not so good at fitting them, so a couple of bubbles. Has anyone lifted and replaced the stock protector? recommended methods? The old fingernail under the corner always ruins them.
Some people suggest a bit of sticky tape to lift the corner.

I disagree. I have just fitted the Martin Field screen protector to my Ameo abd it didn't work well. I have had to take it off and now I have no screen protector temporarily.
Hi guys, i search for this subject, but i didnt found a answer on my question..
I have bought an HD2 2 weeks ago, and now i'm searching for an screenprotector. All my friends (no HD2's) have static protectors (so, no glue usages).. They say Static adherence is better, because it leaves no glue when you remove the protector (and adhesive protectors do?).
For the HD2 instead I can find only adhesive protectors, or protectors where iam not sure how they adhere to the phone..
For instance, the 'screen only' version of invisible shield, is that a adhesive or static protector?
Martin Fields notes that their protector is removable, but still with "A mild adhesive"
Also it is not clear if the basic protector of HTC is using Adhesive
I found one protector for HD2, that is using Static adherence: ScreenGuardz (screenguardz.com). Problem is that I dont find anybody who bought this allready..
In short i have 2 questions:
1. Is it true that when you remove a protector with adhesive adherence, there will stay some glue on your phone?
2. Adhere the "screen only" protector of invisible shield adhesive or static? And if this one is adhesive, do you know an other static protector?
Thanks in advance, Proces
I got a Martin Fields one, the best I have ever seen. 90% clear in ads but I have to say nearly 95% or 99% clear. Smooth sliding like original glass. I dont have a good hand but it's really easy to install with no crazy bubbles. I removed it once for washing, no feel of glue at all.
I used to buy cheap screen protector but this time I went for Martin Fields. I didnt want my lovely HD2 to be damaged. No regret at all. It's just worth it.
Is Martin Fields Scratch-proof like the one from zagg.com That's a lot better then that you've to replace your screen protector every month(s).
I havent used zagg invisible shield so I cant answer u. But from what I read so far, zagg is not really so invisible and Martin Fields's protector is not better at anti-scratch than zagg's one.
However, some guys said after a long time using zagg, there's some odd brown spot in his shield for HD2, look like mudd or sth else. And zagg is not as smooth as Martin Fields. That lead me to my decision.
The ones I use is Exim, used it on my last few devices and it is perfect. Can't tell a screen protector is being used both visually or by touch.
The Exim protector seems to be nice! No glue, and (according to the ads) perfect quality.. Can you tell something about your experience with the Exim? How went the installation (and re-installation)?
Martin Fields or Exim dont make a difference in price (£10).. The glue free feature of Exim makes me think to choose the Exim.
Other opinions why I have to choose an other Screen Protector?
Use a Brando Ultraclear: fits perfect with no glue (removable, washable and re-usable). I'm using on hd2 and is totally unnoticeable; i had on my previous device (and on my TomTom also) and after one year there are no scratch on surface and the screen protector appears like brand new

Installation is the same as any other screen protector. After I installed it, if there is any dust specs behind the protector, I simply lift it up with masking tape and use another piece of masking tape to remove the dust.
I just removed my exim from my old Diamond (after 2 years ish) and the screen is in perfect condition with no residue left.
Anyone got a photo of the HD2 Martin Fields protectors on the phone, to get an idea of fit - got the HTC ones and they were terrible but would ultimately like one to be on the safe side...

Is Martin Fields better than the official HTC one as i ordered myself 4 and they seems good so not sure what i will do with the other 3.

So, after all, there isn't much difference between the different brands (Martin Fiels, Exim, Brando)?

I can't comment on how the others that you mentioned performs as I have never used them. What I can say is that the exim does not reduce sensitivity, I had a normal cheap one on and I couldn't stand it as the screen was desensitised.
well I can tell you about different screen protectors.
i had invisible shield on my hd for 1 and half year, no visible scratches, now changed screen part to htc branded, it has been for one week and there is 7 very visible deep scratches.
same time that i bought htc branded for hd i bought brando ultraclear for hd2 and it has not even slightest mark, even that it has had much more usage than hd. also had same brando on my htc wizard for 2years and it got 2 very small marks.
martin shields is about the same that brando, maybe even better, had one on my diamond. but brando is better fit i think.
i recommend brando or martin, they are superior to any other. zagg invisible is god but its kinda sluggish for first 2months when brando, martin are very slicky nice.
cheap protectors like htc are BAD if one package has more than one it cant be good since even they dont trust their own product.
So, are there any good cases for the N7 that can be bought in the UK? I want something that doesn't add too much bulk; I prefer TPU/silicone cases that cover the back (Like the Switcheasy Colors series for iDevices). Also, does the screen even need a protector? I'm very nitpicky about scratches so if someone could help me out that'd be great.

The screen is scratch resistant, although it still can get scratched - so I would say get a decent quality screen protector for it. You can get a silicone case off eBay that's shipped from the UK that is similar to the Switcheasy stuff.
Only thing is I'm not sure which screen protectors are decent to be honest. I don't want another ZAGG one.
I'm keeping an eye out too.
I hate all the thick, fake leather, chinese ones that cover round the bezel.
Anyone know of any good screen protectors that can be bought in the UK? I like the wet apply ones but the ZAGG on my iPod had a little too much 'drag' for my liking.
Best skins ever you can't go wrong quick shipping as well us though.
Those XOSkins look really nice but I believe they're US only as well
I've got the terrapin dry application screen protector and the S line gel case (in clear). Both are widelty available on eBay UK for next to no money. All good
Hey everyone. I picked up my note 4 yesterday and immediately put a zagg glass screen protector on it out of the box. The problem is it looks like it's not sitting flat on the screen. All around the entire edges of the protector has that light look like there is air underneath all around the borders. Is this common with these ?

I installed a Body Guardz glass screen protector and have something similar - this is the main reason why some of the major glass screen developers are still not offering one - Spigen has pulled theirs completely and from what i understand, are still not saying when or if they will offer one -
The one I have has a very small bit of 'air" as you call it - around the entire edge - probably less than 1/8th of an inch - or maybe even less than that (I haven't measured it) on my phone, you h,ave to really look hard to see it - but it is there -
it doesn't bother me really - but I would like to get a glass screen protector that doesn't do that - just not sure if that is going to be possible with the curved screen - good luck

WHo has those? I saw a post on ILOOME's facebook page that says they will not be supporting that screen protector - here is a quote:
From ILOOME - FACEBOOK : Unfortunately, we will NOT carry a tempered glass for the #GalaxyNote4, as after rigorous testing after receiving the product, it simply was not up to the standard that we have set for ourselves. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. However, #ScreenMateFLEX for the #GalaxyNote4 will be available soon!
I am not familar with the Screenmate flex - but clearly iLOOME is not doing the usual glass screen protectors for the note 4 at least according to their facebook post.
Yes I did a pre order with iloome and they sent me an email cancelling my purchase, said it was not up to their standards and that they were pulling them all together. But they offered me the flex for a cheaper price, which they said WILL NOT cover the whole screen due to curves...

Spigen pulled it for another reason, it fits perfectly minus the unprotected edges (but no halo), their iPhone version also leaves a gap and there's no solution to that

There is a discussion about this in the accessory section. A lot more info there.
Iloome response to if flex covers whole screen:
Dear Melissa,
I forgot to mention: It does NOT have CurveProtect technology, so it will not cover EVERYTHING. Would you still like to proceed? It's similar to our ScreenMate FLEX option for Galaxy Note 2 and LG G2 option.
When I asked if iloome will ever come out with curve protect :
Dear Melissa,
We're working on it. The nature of the Galaxy Note 4 makes it difficult for us to create the CurveProtect-enabled tempered glass, but we will keep on trying. However, I don't really have the answer if we can succeed or not.
Thanks for your response!

I too have the Bodyguardz Glass (Pure) screen protector, and get that VERY small edging - even with the screen protector only going inner-bezel to inner-bezel - Still, I would rather have it than not, and a case on it really hides it well from being too distracting... I think the bodyguardz is the least bit noticeable, or at least from what I have seen... Glad I chose that one after all... Let me know if your glass ends up sitting flush after a few days or more... I was holding out hope that maybe it would after a week or two, but satisfied as is, if not...
Hey guys and gals, I was just informed by a manager at my store that they spoke to Zagg it's a known issue, but they allegedly don't plan on "fixing it". Personally it's not a huge deal.
Wouldn't a solution be getting the protector, and then say an Otterbox Defender which is a tight fit and having it force it down?
i indeed have the same issue with the zagg glass too., the only way i got rid of it was to get a slim case i got from ebay called "Ringke Slim".
I have the IntelliARMOR glass screen protector and it has the same issue. I think that these companies have three options. 1) Make the protector smaller than it already is (bad idea) 2) Make the protector with curved edges (expensive idea) or 3) Increase the thickness of the silicone adhesive just around the edges of the protector. IMHO, I think that they should do #3 and see how it works. I believe that it would be enough to get this "halo effect" to go away.
There is no way to get around the halo using tempered glass... zsgg will be discontinuing glass according to a rep at best buy.
There is a huge thread on a these issues already
Just spoke to Zagg about this very problem. Bottom line there is no solution because the screen on the Note 4 curves away at the edges - lol, thanks Samsung.
The good news is that although this kinda sucks, at least on my white phone I can only see it when the screen is off and once I put my new case which has a lip on it, I doubt I'll notice at all. I love these screen protectors and don't want to return it for something that will only bother me if I'm being completely OCD about it.
** I complained to Zagg about this and they sent me a $10 gift certificate. Strange part is that although this is a known issue, places like Sprint are still selling these at full retail with no mention of the problem to the customer.
For educational purposes I've used a handful of sub ten dollar tempered glass screen protectors. All seem fine. I won't be buying into those loome or high end marketing hype.

In the good old days when fingerprint readers were on the back I used to have a plethora of choices.
Now things are tough, I had one that just about worked for my Note 10 Plus and now I'm waiting for my 20 Ultra to arrive I'm wondering what to get.
The only one I can find is this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product..._title_dp_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A2FHLZIZYHYMMK
It looks a bit square on the edges and the phone is near enough waterproof anyway for my use (which does not involve scuba diving or any underwater photography).
So does anyone have any suggestions please?
I'd also be happy to use a separate case and screen protector but would prefer a built in protector just for ease of use.
Cheers
Joe
I'd definitely go with a separate screen protector and case. The issue with built in screen protectors is that dust and dirt can work their way under the screen protector, since its just sitting on the screen. Then you will just grind it into the screen.
Thanks, any combo recommendations?
