Not sure if anyone really cares, but Ghost Armor has an Imagio protector available now. It isn't listed on their website, so if you want Ghost Armor now just email customer service. I just canceled my Zagg order.
Zagg has theirs too

Yeah, I ordered my Zagg on Monday. Should be here any day now.
Zagg vs Chost Armor
Aren't Zagg and Ghost Armor pretty much the same? I have Ghost Armor on my TP2 (very satisfied) and since I could only find a Zagg protector for my wife's new Imagio, I was going to order that. Both claim the same things (scratch-resistant, better grip, same material they put on helicopter rotors, blah, blah), so I have to believe they are made from basically the same material.
Anyway, I'll continue with the order for the Zagg for the wife's phone and post any differences I find.
I'm going to give the boxwave one a try. Let's see how it holds up
I had the Zagg protector for my girlfriends phone and Ghost Armor for my TP2, they are very very similar. What I liked more about the Ghost Armor was that it had a glassy-er smooth looking surface to it and wasn't as gummy as the Zagg.
Also, Ghost Armor is doing a limited time whole body for the price of just the screen cover deal.
I bought one and a silicone case a week ago
Haven't gotten it yet
Body Gaurdz or Ghost-Armor
I gave used zagg and they are too gummy and have a weird orange peel. these two are more glossy and fit great. I got two Imagio full body Gaurdz for the price of one and couldn't be happier. ghost Armor on my touch, touch pro and instinct all worked great but wasn't available when I got my Imagio.
I just ordered Ghost armor, I'll let you all know how long it takes and if it is any good for the Imagio.
just got my boxwave crystal clear, and all I can say is wow.
This beats any of the crappy screen protectors ghost armor and zagg make.
It's easy to put on, smooth to the touch, and feels sturdy.

+1 for Boxwave, have used them before on my Vogue (XV6900) and now on the Imagio. Great screen protector that's durable, glides well, and has extremely good clarity.
Do most of these screen protectors require a wet soapy installation?

I used soap to clean mine then rinsed it and shook off the majority of the water then applied carefully while using the little applicator (can use a credit card and such) to apply it and squeeze out the little bubbles/water. If you are really careful and in a good environment where there is little dust/particles in the air you can install it out of the wrapper, but I ended up getting some particles in mine so I washed it and re-applied.
Current Ghost Armor Special
Also just for your info guys Ghost Armor is running a special currently on there Imagio protectors. If you order the front screen protector you also receive the full body protector with your shipment. I verified this with them as of yesterday the 19th and order it. Will post if i don't receive. The total price was $19.94 which includes shipping.
I can vouch for Boxwave. I'm using the anti-glare version and I like it a lot.
What is so different? I have a Body Guardz style full body protection which seems crystal clear. But I'm always open to other options. I really want to take good care of this phone, and I know the "military" style protectors do offer great scratch protection. I am in outside sales so I am always getting in and out of cares. Setting phones down on desks, counters, work spaces, car seats etc.
i have a rubber sleeve which makes the phone slightly bulkier, and als ordered a rubberized plastic case just to compare.
Bought a Zagg last night
Ebay one ended up being junk

Hello, I buy a G2 and I have been reading a lot of opinions here on XDA but I can't decide at all.
I want something protective, and also lightly
I saw Nillkin frosted shield here
But I think it is not very protective, or I am wrong?
I also see Spigen Slim Armor here, it seems to be protective but is heavy, is't it? How much does it weight?
Or maybe a tempered glass + Nillkin frosted shield?
Is there anything between nillkin and Spigen?? (I don't like silicone case)
Is Diztronic Matte + an screen protector the best for me?
As you see I read, but there are a lot of opinions in a lot of pages and it is difficult to make up my mind.
Thanks for helping and sorry for my english, I am from Argentina

I got this Speck case
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IEYHJU8/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_7PzJub1VZ7N4Q
It looks like a two piece thing but is actually a fused one-piece case and quite slim. I have a used G2 in white and it has all sorts of dings and scratches on the phone, this case covers them all up perfectly. It looks and feels amazing. This color is a bit "pretty" but my four year old daughter loves it, so that works for me. I imagine if you have the black phone the black case would look better.
I also ordered a leather case from Tetded but that ships from hong Kong so it will be a while before I can evaluate.

How does the speck case protect against bumps and drops? As good as the spigen?
I'm using a Diztronic case and this tempered screen protector: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KVIGG54/
They work well together and I have no complaints about the protection. I'm pretty hard on my electronics and have dropped it to concrete quite a few times with no damage. I was even able to transfer the screen protector to a new phone when I had to get a warranty replacement for a defective camera sensor.
I used to have a two piece otter box style case because I was very paranoid about damaging the phone when I first got it. I got sick of struggling to get in in and out of my pocket since the phone is so big.

i doubt this case would protect your phone from a waste high drop
Ok so i got my N6 back in November, and one thing that is clear to me is the fact that is phone is not a caseless phone or even a TPU phone...It is extreme fragile so much so that that I broke mine 4 days after having it naked, and someone broke their with the case that I had ordered off amazon the night I brought my phone...
Even my lifestyle a TPU case is probably not going to cut it for me so I'm looking for a really good Heavy Duty Case (tragic waste of a beautiful phone)
I found these on amazon Supcase and Poetic
The Supcase have pretty good review...none for the poetic...anyone have either one that can give me a bit of insight?
Please and thank you.

I actually have the Ringke Max on now, and its only a single layer protection, also the reason I want a new case is because someone reported breaking their screen with the Ringke on...It's probably would not have broke with if he had a TGSP on (not sure if he did actually, I'm just assume here)
Just wanted a full body case, cause I really don't think Motorola would replace my phone for free again if I broke it again lol :laugh:
**Edit**
Just saw that the Max is 2 layer...the hard layer is just built onto the soft...interesting design.

I've dropped my Nexus 6 at the gym with a Cruzerlite TPU case and it fell onto the steel leg on the bench press and it was fine. I thought it would have broken by how it fell but time and time again I'm surprised by TPU cases.

yea, and ordinarily I would be happy with just a tpu case, cause I don't like bulk in fact I dont even like cases on an expensive phone that looks great...but considering how I crack my screen with this phone the first time....I'm extremely cautious with this phone right now :crying:
I also have the Cruzerlite (best looking case so far) but it just dont feel safe enough for me. I just use a TPU and TG for the screen maybe that will be enough...

I've dropped many phones with a Cruzerlite and never broken a screen. I broke a tempered glass screen protector on my G3 but the phone was fine. Maybe I'm just lucky I can't stand bulky cases. I know how you feel because if I broke my screen I would be upset so I bought moto care just in case.

I wouldn't use the Neo Hybrid unless they fixed the extremely tight fit issue. My bumper broke in less than a week on my Spigen because of this and don't forget you can use that case with a skin. I posted pictures way back when this happened in the Spigen OP. The Slim armor is alright I still have mine because it wasn't worth paying for the shipping to return it.

I was in the USMC (got our back in 2012) so I know how it is. The field is never kind to phones, after I was in afghan my iPhone 3gs at the time managed to get sand under the screen
I have almost every case mention in this thread. I've posted pictures already but I will keep this short in sweet. Hands down best protection case is the Supcase, but it's extremely bulky. A much better option is the iblason slim. Provide excellent protection, probably 80% of the supcase, but nowhere near as bulky. I just left that case and now I'm using the S-Case because I wanted something smaller, I have moto care so if I break my phone I will get a new one. My new case will be here next week.... review to follow
Best Case:
1)SUPCASE [Heavy Duty] Belt Clip Holster Case for Google Nexus 6 (2014 Release) [Unicorn Beetle PRO Series] Full-body Rugged Hybrid Protective Cover with Built-in Screen Protector (Black/Black), Dual Layer Design + Impact Resistant Bumper.

2)Ballistic tough-jacket-maxx.

Best Tempered glass screen Protector:
Jelly Comb Premium 9H Tempered Glass Screen Protector for Nexus 6 - Anti-scratch Oleophobic - Anti Shatter - 0.3mm Ultra Slim.
http://www.amazon.com/Nexus-Screen-...+Oleophobic+-+Anti+Shatter+-+0.3mm+Ultra+Slim
I'm thoroughly enjoying my heavy duty supcase with the holster. For the past few years I've used wallet cases on my Galaxy notes. I m happy I went this route.
After searching for a good screen protector I've settled on the zagg HD. I have the spigen slim fit case being delivered tomorrow but are there any other cases that will work with it that offer full cover protection( slim fit leaves the buttons exposed)? Appreciate any help. Thanks
The thin fit one like ringke slim, spigen thin fit and the official Samsung clear case are the only ones I was able to use with the zagg hd. Yes the buttons are exposed on the spigen thin fit.
Seidio Surface, VRS Layered Dandy, VRS Damda Clip, and the Caseology Series (Provided you aligned the protector very well, e.g. it's not on one side more than the other).

For some weird reason I went into an Amazon trance and bought more than 10 cases for the S7 Edge, and I also have a Zagg HD Dry on my phone.
Echo the notion that the Caseology Envoy case won't lift a properly applied HD Dry. Also the Obliq Flex Pro caused me no issue. Of the two, I'd give the slight protection edge (heh) to the Obliq. The Case-Mate Naked Tough also did not intrude on the screen-protector, but I rate that case at minimal protection and more for style.
The following cases did mess with the corners of my Zagg, which I have subsequently mitigated by carefully trimming the film away from the very ends of the top two corners.
Speck Candy Shell Grip
Spigen Crystal Shell
Spigen Tough Armor
(All awesome cases, BTW)
A couple more extreme-protection cases were split with respect to this; the i-Blason Prime Dual Layer Holster case will interfere with it, and the (Supcase branded) big-brother the Unicorn Beetle Pro - with it's front bezel design - is the best here, appearing not to cause even a full-coverage (not trimmed) Zagg to peel on the phone, as I tested it with my wife's fully intact Zagg HD Dry.
Just my anecdotal observations on the topic.

Right. Somebody, quick, tell my wife that.
Anyway, our path's crossed sooner than I thought today, due to a school-function schedule change, and I have her shiny gold S7 Edge in my hand right now. After about 10 hours with the Obliq case on it there is no lift on any of the four corners of the Zagg HD Dry on the screen.
You want pics, or are you good?

Ringke fusion s7 edge case
I have the ringke fusion and the edge of the case doesn't even make to the edge of the screen and the has really good flaps that cover/insert into the power and headphone jacks. Its perfect for a screen protector and it comes with a slim screen protector for the back so the is none of the wierd bubble effect that some clear cases make.
Got the obliq flex pro today and it works great with the zagg HD. I'm happy for now as the phone is now fully covered.

I really like the Spigen Rugged Armor Case for OP3 - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...A2SFKRF5TPZMT5
But I'm worried the tempered glass i want to get won't go well with it. The Yootech one - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...A3KGQHS00G2MDY
Should i just go for a regular screen protector since the case already has some leap in front? Like the ArmorSuit one - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...A3LQSX85N730QN
Need to order them soon. Replies will be appreciated.
I had the non TG from yootech and it was trash. Didn't stick well left tons of adhesive on the top of screen protector after peeling the top layer off.
Still waiting for something with decent reviews, but now I don't even have the OEM protector on.

I am worried about those tempered glass protectors to be honest. Anything that causes air bubbles or rainbow effect, i will rip off quickly i'm sure
I'm probably just going to get another plastic screen protector and use that til a good TG one comes out. I really like the rugged armor case too and don't plan to use anything else except maybe the neo hybrid spigen case.

I am in the same situation here in India. Bought the spigen rugged armor case. Liked it so much that I'm still Sticking to the stock plastic scratch guard. But I believe no tempered glass would work fine with this case. Any ideas?
Yep i'm in the same boat. Currently using spigen with stock screen protector as well. I usually dont care about the front glass as I am with the back but I recently found some people had their display broke so i'm a bit nervous about that.

I would get that, but don't want to lose even 5mm of screen space. It's not a big deal, but it would annoy me.
The phone feels and looks great with the Rugged Armor case so I don't wanna buy another just so I can use Tempered Glass. I'd just keep the OEM protector on until TG compatible with this case comes out.

This is why i opted for the Neo Hybrid instead of the TPU Rugged Armor. Because i need more protection if i got only a plastic protector on.
I know this thread is pretty old but any luck in finding a Tempered Glass screen protector that plays nice with the rugged admor case? I still can't find one that seems to be compatible.
The icheckey is fine, and there are two in the pack. I got mine from Amazon.

Orlzly v 2 is the only one that works with a Spigen rugged armor, two pack normally, I've tried them all.
RhinoShield hit the spot for me
I'm disappointed.
What it has going for it is the fact that it's slim and minimalistic, especially for a UAG case. It feels nice in the hand and the cutouts are precise. The dark smoke looks nice.
Where they went wrong
The buttons do not feel tactile and they do not protrude enough. In other words, they do not feel clicky like they would on the Plasma or Pathfinder series (not available for the Note 8). The glossy clear plastic also scratches really easily.
The glossy plastic scratches really easily.
In all fairness, it's technically compatible with case friendly screen protectors, but they cut it real close. The bottom corners barely have any clearance, which means that the TPU may push against the protector if you apply any amount of force. I can imagine it eventually lifting the protector by simply carrying it in your pocket.
The honeycomb pattern in the corners is basically a light imprint in the TPU, I can't see this magical honeycomb pattern making any difference in a serious drop.
Did I mention these retail for $40 a piece?
I would have been happy paying that amount if it didn't have these issues.
I've been loyal to UAG for years, but this is definitely a letdown for me.
UAG can get back on my good side when they decide to produce a good $40 case...
I personally bought this one
I bought them but it scratched easily. I complained to cs and they send me a code for any note 8 case for free so I ordered the monarch case of course. :victory: and you can keep the old case. Now I'm switching between the two I refused to use other cases except the Samsung rugged case.
Thanks for the Plyo review.
Too bad they didn't make the Pathfinder for the Note 8, but as a first time UAG user, I think the Plasma is a good $40 case.
