Hello,
Title says it all !
I'm a fresh buyer of the Nexus S, SLCD version. I've never used screen protectors before, but this is my very first smartphone, and even if I take care of my phones and never had scratches before, I'm considering buying some. The screen is so beautiful !
I've browsed the forums a bit and basically we hear about the same brands over & over again, such as the ZAGG, known to be a solid protector but with many disadvantages such as orange peel, sensitivity losses, etc.
I guess the perfect screen protector doesn't exist, but I'm looking for something you wouldn't even notice it is there, that would protect my screen for scratches and fingerprints.
So far, there were many many positive feedbacks about the SGP ultra optics SP !
What do you think ?
Thanks in advance !

You don't need screenprotector for this phone, bcuz i think it has gorilla glass. I've been using this phone for 8 months now, but still no scratches.

Sent From,
PHONE: LG Optimus Black P970
ROM: Zeus v3.2N
KERNEL: Diana v0
ClockworkMod.
I bought and a couple of times they have saved my screen , I bought them on ebay on Italian sites, you must be careful to have this form, look at pictures in the link ,there are different types ,with few cutters are better.
I have to agree that there very few situations where screen protector will help at all.
Only if you actually grinding the screen on sand or metal edges there will be use.
In reality a silicon or TPE bumper will give you much better protection.
I mean the gorilla glass really WORKS on this phone, being so lightweight there is hardly any pressure when you put out down. Off out falls from high enough nothing will save it.
I only have couple of little scratches and they are self inflicted (cutter knife ) to see the actual force that starts to make visible damage.
P.s. And not to sound out of idea i actually had couple of protectors. One was utter rubbish and peeled within a week. The other was good, stuck alright and was hard (ish) enough but there was some obvious loss of sensitivity of the screen - more often undetected button touch, wrong button etc.
So ended taking it of.
I prefer some (possible) scratches but responsive screen and less reflection and natural colours.
I've been using on my phone a Clear screen protector for a month,
But the problem is that the screen protector isn't smooth and it's hard to slip the finger on this screen protector.
Therefore, I've purchased a matte screen protector, once I'll receive it, I will write a review about it, but I've already seen it, and it's so smooth.
I used to have a nice 20+€ screen protector on the phone for about two or three months, then it lost the touch after it gained a few scratches so I took it off and was going to buy a new one.. that was more than 3 months ago and still haven't needed a protector for my screen, over 3 months "unprotected" no bag no silicon, nothing and still 0 scratches. one doesn't really need a protector with this screen.
I had my phone since 1 month, it got some hardly noticeable scratches :S
It sucks... I have to get a screen protector now..
Got a screen protector with a silicon case from ebay for a few euros and the protector is already on it for 6 months and seems to be glued onto it (so excellent one) and the silicon case saved my phone a few times already from being seriously scratched or broken. Worth the few euros for sure, especially if you want to sell it one day (now it is still as new)!!!
I use screen protector. I bought 5 for a bunch of euros. Even with Gorila Glass it's never to much protection
I think we don't need any screen protector.. gorilla glass is too good on our black.. you can see many videos in youtube about gorilla glass durability
Been using 3$ anti-glare for all this time
So far so good

Anyone have tried the invisible shield full protection ?
I....use invisible shield.....from ZAGG.The screen protector is not so good.Its litle "sticky"wnen toy touch him.The all telephone is like "fake"on toch.But protetion is realy amazing..
after i read this thread, took out my screen protector form OB. Now my device looks as good as new. Forgotten how beautiful the screen is without screen protector on it.
Personally I like a anti fingerprint screen protector on my OB... I know gorilla glass is very nice and strong. but I hate it to be super smooth resulting in super sensitive touch. With a screen protector it is not so smooth and I can do some pin point accuracy on the touch screen.
i recomented this...:

No matter what CPU and other specs your phone have you will always look at the screen and I want the best of it. For that reason I'll rather take the risk of taking extra care of the naked screen than even a 5% compromise of screen clarity due to the screen protector. What's the point of the IPS technology if the cover will reduce it to normal LCD or Pentile quality.
A friend of mine is helping me to get one or two screen protectors from Korea for my Note.
I've tried before the SGP/Steinheil Ultra Crystal and Ultra Oleophobic, and think they are quite good. But there are many more Korean brands that are not sold elsewhere, so I wonder if you can recommend me some high quality screen protectors with as many of the following features as possible:
glare reduction
anti-fingerprint
easy cleaning
scratch resistance
easy application (without liquids or sprays)
no loss of colour & sharpness
shatter proof or resistance
no known negative effect on stylus
I need the protector to reduce glare (from lights, reflections from windows) as I do a lot of reading and net surfing when I commute. Some matte screen protectors are really dreadful as they make everything look pixelated and blurry, so although I prefer one that reduces glare, it should not compromise the quality of the screen. I've seen ads for screen protectors that are 0.4mm--0.46mm, and I'm concerned about their effect on the stylus.
Lastly, I'm also hoping to try "coloured" screen protectors; one of those with coloured borders, e.g. white or pink. I've looked at brands like SkinX, Patternbreaker Blacklabel Flexible Tempered Glass, Dreamplus Kenneth Innocent Fine Film and Glasszone, and I'm torn as they all look really great. Has anyone had experiences with them, or know where I can find blogs with reviews?
If you can point me to some reviews, or even the Korean words I should be searching Google with, that will be most fantastic! Thanks in advance!
Any ideas about this?

Can the moderator help me to move this to the accessories sub-forum please? Sorry about this, as I kept thinking "I have a question and I need answers..." That's what happens when I'm too engrossed in something!
God its annoying, coming from the Xperia S it was easy to get a protector on with no bubbles. It just went on the problem with the Xperia T I think is that the edge is raised slightly so even if you're a little bit out it will bulge at the sides. I bought them cheap off ebay so maybe they're not the correct size, but its pretty irritating and I have put many a screen protector on so have some pretty good knowledge and technique to applying them.
Any advice? Is this well known issue with the phone?
cheers

I have Zagg screen protector applied for... 8 moths now and a cheap silicon case since I bought the phone. The screen protector is little bit smaller than the screen so it leaves about 1,5 millimeter of space in the left, right, bottom of the screen and some more on the top. I am really proud of this screen protector and I advise you buying one. It's not cheap but they have their replacement program (if you send them your old ZAGG protector back, they will send you another only charging you for the letter). I already used one replacement - I applied the protector without reading any instructions and I ended up with many many bubbles. But with my next try I read their instructions, video and used the cleanest room in my house (it's pretty important IMHO). Now everything is good, no bubbles at all. I guess you would have to find correct protector, not the cheap one because it will always be something not right.
My phone is T. Xperia T.
You definitely have an bad quality protector. I applied protector that I get with Xperia T, and it went smooth on first try, like never before. Your problem is protector dimension, as it seems a bit oversized. It should not cross the edges of display, and my three reserve protectors I have for my T are not crossing it either, just like original one. The only solution for you, is obvious solution, go for other protectors. Nillkin ones are good protectors too, but are rare on eBay, with just a few sellers.

The quality from China can differ dramatically. The cheapest ones usually are cut badly, don't apply easy, leave bubbles, have rainbow effects, and peel off easily. But some of the cheapos are not bad. I had most success by ordering medium priced ones from Hong Kong. The Zagg one sounds interesting but the price is too high.
Yeah the zag ones are tempting but I'm not spending that much on screen protectors lol
it's just I've bought many off ebay for my previous xperias and never had an issue with oversizing, it doesn't seem to be too large its just that it need to be applied PERFECTLY I think, which is near about impossible...
Order here http://stores.ebay.com.sg/Rocky-Mobile?_trksid=p4340.l2563 . They are all-right for the price, though there is some rainbow refection.
5 in one pack and for less than one. On 3. attempt it will be sitting all right.
Hello there possible saviour of headaches,
I've been browsing around for hours now through fake/legit comments recommending this or that product.
It seems as finding the perfect screen protector for this phone is a hassle, so my question is, of the ones that YOU'VE tried.. which satisfied you the most?
Please post pictures, if you have the energy to do so, on the current state of your screen protector.
Thank you for your time!
Ps. You may claim the title "saviour of headaches" after your contribution.
If you need protector not tempered glass
Buy from official site
I'm using this one https://es.aliexpress.com/item/ZNP-Vidrio-Templado-Para-Xiaomi-Redmi-4-4-Pro-4X4-Redmi-Nota-4-Nota-Pro-4X/32836035031.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.XaBkJF

3mk Arc (also 3mk Arc 3D if you need back/sides protection aswell), it's screen protector over whole screen (it's foil not glass, and yes it goes over the edges aswell), perfect fit it's not even noticable and it's not coming off anywhere, 0 bubbles and it has self regenerating coat..
I tried a lot of screen protectors including Aliexpress ones but they are all trash, all of them have some issues (mostly poor fit, or some weird color issues). But with this i'm 100% satisfied, im not looking for glass protector anymore. This is enough for scratch protection, for drop protection i have case..

Here you have video with 3mk Arc 3D (for different phone) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2phEqkGAAnQ
This is their official store: https://folie-ochronne.3mk.pl/pl/c/Redmi-Note-4-Global/1369 39,99 zł. is around 10 Euros.
I live in Indonesia. I know one trusted screen protector brand. The brand name is INDOSCREEN.
They have some type of screen protector with price range and technology which you can check on their website.
If this brand available to your country I suggest you choose their top line options. Mask premium series hybrid film model for instance. It's impossible to break, made from PET plastic - glass, absorbs low to medium impact, and delicate to touch, oleophobic coated too.
This black and red packaged product is quite pricey. But no compromise quality and lifetime warranty plus 3 times free changing sure is worth the money.
I think the main reason why we not getting a proper screen protector is because of the curved screen ... I hate that 2.5D glass screen. Life was much simpler with a flat screen.
And thats why you shouldn't use tempered glass on this phone but good quality screen film / foil with full screen coverage. 3mk is really top notch quality but feel free to look for some alternatives, i'm not looking anymore.
I use brotect mate since 1 years, perfect ! Find on ebay

Read my posts in the tempered glass thread
My preferred across several devices now is the Nillkin Anti-Glare with Matte finish. It's up to personal preference, but they're the ones I like most. Every new device I migrate to, I purchase 2-4 of these for its lifetime. I like their visual acuity (not as "clear"), touch and feel, ease to clean, and oleophobic effectiveness.
"Nillkin Matte Mi5" will find it on ebay, AliExpress, etc. Check youtube for examples. Like with most plastic film, replace every ~6-12 months depending on your preference.
I´ve been using a no name anti glare foil from Phonenatic and does a good job. Bought on e-bay, a 2 pcs set was €2,40. https://www.ebay.at/itm/371815842272 and also have a 9H glass, this is okay as well. https://www.ebay.at/itm/372136883554
I use this: https://www.gearbest.com/screen-protectors/pp_1284329.html?wid=1433363 and i am very happy with it, it also has all the holes in the right position, so you don't even see and feel that you have it installed
