Matte / Anti-glare screen protector - Nexus 7 Accessories

Anyone know if there is any compatible matte / anti-glare screen protector?
I would really like to find one, like the original that came with the Notion Ink Adam for the N7
Wet application preferred.
EDIT: Found this one with a quick search, but it's a new company... http://www.amazon.com/KaysCase-Screen-Protector-Google-Anti-Glare/dp/B008G7VTC2
MORE: Anyone have experience with any of these?

I got the RooCase one because it was the only I could find that covered the whole front.

How does it feel and look? Mind sharing pictures; screen on, screen off, under direct lighting or sunlight, please
I noticed this, that many just cover the actual touch portion. I have a clear Zagg from the Nook Color that fits like this on the N7.

I bought the roocase screen protectors (2 HD and 2 Anti-Glare) and I can say that they are decent screen protectors. BUT you have to get it dead on when applying it as their is no room for error and also at the very top of the glass (above the camera) all the way across it is literally .4mm too short and leaves some glass showing. Not too bad as the screen is scratch resistant in the first place :thumbup:

A month and a half later...

I had amcase matte screen on my n7 for a bit. I got it from amazon. The protector itself was well made as it was sturdy and stiff, not a flimsy cheap feeling. It felt really good on the fingertips with the characteristic matte texture and it did not effect sensitivity, brightness, and color reproduction. Also it limited smudges by a huge factor and did a really good job diffusing the sunlight during outdoor use.
But in the end, one of the best things about n7 is its clear high def screen. Since matte screens make the screen appear fuzzy and does distorts contents on screen I decided to oder amcase clear screen. Am much happier but it does get lots of smudges that needs constant cleaning.
Hope it helped.

[Q] Zagg or Stealth Guard screen protectors?

Wonder if they will have a matte version. How does it compare to ZAGG or StealthGuard, you know?
-CC
I've had skinomi on my Incredible, and I've used one of the other "indestructible" screen protectors. Skinomi won be over because of their lifetime warranty. I've never noticed the infamous orange peel effect either.
On a side note, even though I've done it multiple times, applying a skin like that on a 10" screen potentially scares the crap out of me because of how much liquid solution it will require.
also, I checked their site and they don't have a matte version but their regular version does cut down on glare a bit.

I usually dunk the protector into the solution and shake some of excess off, but it's easy to do that with 4.3 and 7" screens...

I know there aren't many actual owners yet, but I would like for you that are interested the Adam, please go to ZAGG and StealthGuard and suggest the Notion Ink Adam. Hopefully with some interest, they may deem it worth making a design available for it.
thanks,

Give skinomi a try, you wont be disappointed.
There is another one with the same helicopter blade material I used a couple of years ago... now to remember the name...

Screen Protectors fitting like crap [i9020]

Does anyone else's screen protector have dust collecting under the spot where the screen curves down into the bezel? its above the speaker grille and also below the capacatives.
I ordered a zagg and I'm hoping that it doesn't also do the same thing.
Has anyone come across a screen protector that doesn't suck/ do this?

Well im on my third zagg invisible shield, the previous two where not a perfect fit. Thats why they where also collecting dust at the bottom part where the keys are. Te third one ive ordered of their site and its much better fit for my nexus. There is no dust under it after more than two months of use.

Good, I just ordered one from Zagg and hopefully it fits like yours does.
I have an Xtreme Guard (here) and I don't have this problem. Fits perfectly.
My Nexus S came with a Zagg already installed, and yeah, I kinda hate it. I'm too lazy to order another one and put it on, so I'll deal. I was just wondering if anyone's screen has an orange tint to it? I just got the phone (3 days), and when I put it next to my Captivate, the Captivate's screen is much more vivid and has no orange tint to it. Is this because of Zagg? It fits very well, by the way.
Well i have slcd i9023 version, and its colors are still like before. I agree that the texture is a bit getting used to but when you do it doesnt really bother you. And on the plus side the annoying fingerprints are greatly reduced.

I have SGP steinheil ultra oleophobic and fits perfect. No non-sticky parts, neither dust under the protector.
Previously i had a case mate protector and it caught all the dust of the surroundings down the protector in the corners

I may be alone in this, but I think screen protectors are overrated. The biggest danger to the screen is shattering and no screen protector will prevent that. Unless you have diamonds in your pockets I cannot imagine scratching it without breaking it completely. .

That is a good point, which would go more towards purchasing a case rather than a screen protector, though i have a major pet peeve when it comes to my screen having any sort of scratch..let alone cracks..but IMO i do believe having a well made screen protector on or screens do provide a lesser chaw of getting cracks if the device were to drop!

I am using the gadget guard screen protector, i really like it it is heavy duty, anti glare, and anti finger prints, very easy to install, can be installed with wet or dry installation. It was a little hazy yesterday when i installed it, but really clear today, took about twelve hours to clear up after wet install. But only using it till my otterbox comes in.

I agree with you about screen protector being uselessly, but with phone being so new you have to order a case, because my att store one had one, and it was for women, and the screen protector is a nice peace of mind till the case comes in.

So I just received the skinomi and got it installed. No pictures though sorry!
It was very easy to install. Came with liquid, squeege, and cloth!
It is very clear. Pretty much like the invisible shields if you have ever seen those.
Feel is also not that bad.
Fit is perfect and goes from corner to corner very well!
For less than 10 dollars on Amazon it is the best screen protector you can get.

I was using invisishield protector for a few a months. Was a pretty decent protector. Didn't tear, anti glare and all that jazz. I ended up taking it off about 4 months ago because the protector itself was scratched and to be honest, since I removed it I've been asking myself why I bought one in the first place. 4 months later, not a single scratch and I think I have enjoyed the phone more without it. Screen is clear, sharp and bright and still without scratches. Often put in my pocket with keys, lighter and other hazardous materials for out phones.

Generally, for the average person, I agree. But I work in dusty/sandy environments and every phone I have ever owned ends up with scratched on the screen, gorilla glass or otherwise.

Yeah, I'm thinking I might get a normal screen protector to put below the built-in one on the otterbox and see if that reduces the sensitivity for me.
Do we really need a screen protector?
The gorilla glass is already there right?
Is it useful?

same here, what will be the point in selling a super scratch free 2 years old obsolete phone .....
just like the slightly scratched glass on my iphone 3gs I gave to my kids as an ipod touch
I see I'm in the minority here but screen protectors just don't have the same smoothness as the gorilla glass. Coming from a Samsung Impression it felt like I was running my fingers on silk. And after 4 months of always being on my person I can attest gorilla glass is pretty kick ass. I've dropped the phone onto a gravel street and got very minimal damage. Now mind you the phone bounced, landed and skidded about 10' on the kevlar back so maybe it was just a small miracle it didn't shatter. But the only damage was a small knick in the glass on the top corner away from the touch screen and a small dent in the metal around the face. The kevlar took no damage at all. I've also had in a pocket with loose change and keys with no effect.
Now maybe I'm just lucky but the kevlar backing and silky smooth touch of the gorrilla glass as opposed to having to change screens and getting a bulky case that won't fit the HD dock just aren't comparable.
I go a couple of scratches on my screen, probably from it being dropped in the gym and all that good stuff. I went ahead and got a Zagg screen protector off amazon. It's not too bad for the 10 bucks I spent.

+ 100,000 on that one. First thing I do on any new phone I get is drop a Zagg on it.

Oleophobic Fingerprint resistant screen protector?

I had one on my Transformer and it was fantastic. I got one after someone mentioned how tablets accumulate tons of prints all over the screen.
It did wonders for my screen.
I ordered a wet screen protector and while it looked good, it still had a print problem. Also the N7 has a flat screen and doesn't need a wet SP since there are no curves.
So I'm looking for a dry apply fingerprint resistant screen protector. Any suggestions?

Yea, no that's not what I'm talking about. That's just a matte finish which is not what I'm looking for. The reviews also say it "feels like paper" and "smudges too much". Both something I don't want.
The fingerprint resistive ones I'm looking for aren't matte. They have some kind of protective coating that resists fingerprints.
The one on my Transformer was not matte or anti glare or anything. Just a regular glossy anti fingerprint dry SP.
Any other suggestions? Cause I haven't found any.

No need for a PM!
The amFilm matte finish screen protector is better with fingerprints than the clear one. You can see smudges with the screen off, but with the screen on, they're not noticeable. I tried taking a picture, but it's not coming out.
Anyway, what you're looking for is an oleophobic screen protector. Spigen makes one for the Nexus 7. I don't know if anyone else does yet.

SGP Protector
I really like the SGP ones. I have had them on my Nexus S since I got it and love it. It by no means is fingerprint proof, but does quite a good job. If you have oily hands, you will see some, but not nearly as bad as no screen. I tend to like the matte finishes to kill the reflection as well. It's quite a bit on the pricey side, but worth it since it lasts a while and looks great.
I already purchases the SGP screen protector for my Nexus 7 and it's in the mail. If you don't mind waiting, I can let you know how mine turns out.
http://www.spigen.com/tablets/google/google-nexus-7-remium-lcd-protection-film-steinheil-series.html
Yea this is the stuff I'm talking about. My old one was possibly a matte but felt smooth. It was edge to edge and you couldn't even tell a difference using it.
I got it via being asked to review it, which I gave it great reviews but I can't find my damn review in the Transformer thread to get the name.
I'll look into some further now I know the actual name of that coating but I wanted to see if anyone had any they've found already.
After installing on my transformer, I don't think I ever had to clean my screen ever again... they're that good.

Yea it isn't in there. Maybe it got lost in the shuffle or something. SGP was probably the one though. After visiting the website it looked strangely familiar, as I visited the website to get a running list of features for the review.
Whatever I had before, I want on my N7.
I also changed the title using the relevant keyword.
It looks like the 'official' Google screen protector will be oleophobic. Can't put out a link yet, but...

As some others have suggested, the matte screen protectors hide finger grease and reflections very well. I use these Fosman protectors http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA07R0CA7549 which are excellent and inexpensive. Like any dry apply protector you have to be very careful about dust getting between it and the screen when it is applying. Using the touch screen is much nicer with this screen protector since your finger now glides smoothly over the surface.

Glass Screen Protector?

Hello people,
i am looking for a glass screenprotector with a colour (yellow?) But I cannot find any. All the items I see on ebay are either sold out or do not have the yellow colour
I would recommend staying away from the coloured glass protectors as they have not been given stellar reviews here on XDA. Most of the time it's the fact that the SPen doesn't work right or fitment, etc.
I think the company is called XGear.
XGear review link here
I can't find the site anymore but you can get them off ebay. There are a few distributors out of China that make what you're looking for but I would avoid them as I haven't read anything good about them.
I have one of those glass ones off of eBay, mine is black. I have a link in the screen protector reviews thread. Ive had it for a week and I have no issues with sensitivity or the s pen. However, the black around the edges is glittery, so its kind of a girly SP. Quality is there though.
One big deal though, the SP goes all the way to the edge. So your cases you may have may not work with it. I'm currently using a casemate tough case, but I can confirm both otter boxes, and the protective cover+ DO work with it. But your basic TPU cases will not.

s pen is generally not affected by screen protectors. bring your s pen close to the screen, press down on the nib and move it around and you can draw without the s pen even touching the screen.
+1 for the 'Bulletproof" (Glasszone) SP
I've had two of these protects for two seperate phones and they are outstanding. I'm not sure where everyone is getting this speculation that glass screen protectors (particular the ones with colour outside the screen) affect the spen or touch sensitivity. It works PERFECTLY FINE. And it is the best likeness you will get to your bare naked screen. I will never go back to a none-glass screen protector. I bought this one:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/New-BULLETPR...var&hash=item3cccacdff8&_uhb=1#ht_12820wt_958
Which is essentially the same as this one that was posted earlier except different pricing/seller:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Galaxy-Note-...ar&hash=item23268cf7c6&_uhb=1#ht_10679wt_1163
Go for it, you won't regret it. Just a heads up though the screen protector does go all the way to the edge of your screen, but I haven't had any problems with my Incipio Dual Pro Shine case or my Seido Active. Also, your home button will be recessed since the glass is thicker, but you can easily buy a home button sticker on ebay (which IMO makes your phone look so much more bada**). I've yet to receive my Urban Armour Case so I can't say if it will fit on that. I'm sure it will though.

Also, your home button will be recessed since the glass is thicker, but you can easily buy a home button sticker on ebay (which IMO makes your phone look so much more bada**). I've yet to receive my Urban Armour Case so I can't say if it will fit on that. I'm sure it will though.

I'd like to know what is the difference between the one from the first link and the one I ordered from the same vendor:

s pen is generally not affected by screen protectors. bring your s pen close to the screen, press down on the nib and move it around and you can draw without the s pen even touching the screen.

This I know, I just remember reading a few posts on the forums where people were having issues with some of the first Glass SP's. I'm using the MimeUSA one right now and came from a JLG that died recently. the XGEAR GSP or one of the other ones had some issues like fitment and general SPen problems. I'm sure they are fixed now though. Didn't want another user here to get steered towards a sub par product.
This is the protector I have.

Best protector I've ever had on a phone. Solid black color with no glitter. Adhesive on the entire protector. Covers entire glass. I have a white note 2 but you can't tell at all.
Anybody know of a seller that has red colored ones in stock? (Reputable seller, of course.) That would make my Note 2 perfect!

This one isn't glass though.

This one doesn't isn't colored around the screen, as mine is black. This one also does not go all the way to the edges, mine does.

Well, the one I got from MIME does not totally cover the screen either, but this one is 1/2 price. In addition, I don't like color edges because I want it 100% clear.
I got one from x gear a few days ago. I think it was called voyager 2. its white. Works great.

The reason why MIME one doesn't cover the whole screen is because they counted in that you will be using a body cover. So they wanted to make sure this wasn't a issue.

It's worse than what you said. It's like "lifting" because the edges (including home button) do not totally stick on the screen and leave air space around the screen protector.
I don't know whether mine is defective or something.

I have a friend who has the mime and he has issues with the defender case peeling up the sides. If its an adhesion problem, let them know. I'd think if you can show them pictures that they'll send you out a new one. Most of the "non zagg" companies try to provide the best customer service possible.
On another note, does the voyager 2 have glitter on the black? I'm seriously considering buying it because I'm tired of the glitter on my eBay one

I would say the type of adhesive MIME uses on the glass could a little more sticker. But then of course that could probably cause some issues. Also I noticed on some areas that the glue doesn't quite go to the edge of the glass.
