Xperia T - Out of stock - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

To the proud owners of Xperia T, does the phone come with a factory installed screen protector...
Your reply will help me to save the cost of ordering an additional screen protector...

yes it does

Yes, and the first thing I do is rip it off and don't bother with any, I find screen protectors attract dust and get to easily scratched whilst the main screen is very robust and doesn't get scratched at all....I have done this with all my xperia devices.

LOL...i do exactly the opposite....I use a screen protector but I dont like to put any case on it, as it spoils the aethetics. And to why I use screen protector is, because a scratch on the screen will keep bothering me, even though it wouldnt affect the usage...
BTW, factory installed screen protector from sony are quite good imo.
Thanks Greg and Asterix...

No, just get your fingernail under it near the top centre and pull it off, its a bit more sticky than non-factory fitted screen proteceters, but it does just pull off

Have just ordered mine, and it was the last piece in stock at Clove Technologies....
Should be recieving tmrw in Singapore...
Does anybody have some opinion on the camera app and picture quality difference between Stock and AOSP camera apps...

Dust Magnet

My Xperia T attracts dust like a magnet. It's unbelievable. Soon there will be no dust anywhere on the planet. Just one big dust ball with my Xperia at the centre of it! Anyone else have this problem?

Remove the screen protector that comes factory fitted with the phone. I have done that with all my xperia phones and it makes the screen miles better. Furthermore, I have found that it does not attract as much dust

Does it get easily scratched? I did it with my old x10, but got scratched pretty bad.

That's a good plan, it may well be that screen protector. I'll replace it with a different one see what happens.

Just try near the top centre, once you have a corner up it pulls off easilly enough.

I've been taking a can of dust off air to my phone like twice a week. Especially around the bevel... works well.
I now have the same problem on my new Pixel 7 Pro I bought like a month ago. It's screen is dusty whenever I get it out of the pocket no matter what pants.
Searched everywhere and can't find anything useful. My first guess is some kind of static electricity. I've tried:
• anti-static screen cleaner
• letting the battery die and keep it uncharged for like half a day.
• a bunch of different jeans/pants
• even tried vaccum cleaning my pockets and trying to pick up anything that's impossible to see with human eye by a lint roller and duct tape.
Putting on a screen protector film or tempered glass would be my last resort.
After 30 minutes in pocket it looks like this. It's really embarrassing when I have to get it out in front of other people. Also attaching a photo of my pocket so you don't think they are messy or smth.

Yeah mine came with both. I think everyone has them.
Some people removed them, but some people say they help with the strength of the glass.
I took my front one off because it got some marks on it... Seems fine without it.
I say: Leave them on until they get damaged (which seems quite easy)

Afaik the Sony logo is on the preinstalled shatterproof protectors and will disappear when removing the front one.
it seems,not only this protectors increases dust absorption and finger print but also is getting a feel of lost slip on screen when i want to sweep between the pages.i think is better to remove this shields if it is possible and dont injury knocks the screen
my q is why sony should be placed these protectors even with using drugonglass in z?!!!is this can a reason for worse viewing angle on xperia z?!!!

Then you're very lucky as the back of mine looks like a multicolored rainbow of oil slick after a few mins use.
Did you lose the Sony logo off the front? If you didn't you likely just removed the second screen protectors and left the shatter proof factory ones on.
Mines almost unusable now as the fingerprints are worse than any phone I've ever owned.
Viewing angles remain unchanged from removing the protectors, you shouldn't spread false info as there will be a lot of unhappy campers removing their protectors and seeing zero viewing angle difference.
I think you'd better not peel them off. These coverings are designed to prevent broken glass splinters hurting people, and hard and stuck very tight with special method in factory. It won't affect display I suppose, trust Sony. It's part of the device. Moreover, since it scratches easily, add one more film on it...
warranty
not sure if removing sony anti-shatter foils does also remove warranty...as you are given foils also in package, maybe read somewhere on XDA
I do not understand why people remove these...
- When NOT removed and If you drop the phone, it prevents the glass splinters from shattering all over the place.
- When removed Sony can no longer guarantee the phone to be water proof, as stated in another topic.
- When removed the phone attracts more fingerprints.
- When removed you lose the Sony logo on the front.
As far for these scratching a lot, I have not put on any extra screen protector and do not have a single scratch yet.
However I do use a leather case, always do that with all my phones.
Used Xperia Play for 2 years aprox, not a single scratch on the pre installed film.
Kind regards, Stefan.
The dragontrail glass is only for durability purposes! DO NOT remove the shatter proof sheet, it protects the screen from drop shocks so it doesn't get broken! Use the supplied screen protector and you will be fine! Unfortunately here in Greece it ships without screen protectors in the box and damn we got the highest price! (€699)

[Q]can i really use X8 without screen protector?

i am never touched the original layer of the screen or digitizer since i bought X8, because i am using my
X8 with Screen protector from the first day i bought it,and as the Screen protector is bit cheap(hard to get H-quality)
and feels sometime harder to touch and move my finger across the screen because of the
plastic screen protector that stops my finger from moving when put force little bit.(really annoying and cancel my great mood sometimes)
i wondering that why our X8 screen is not scratch resistant and surprised when i
checked phone sites like GSMarena and when seeing our X8 specs
it says that our X8 has Scratch-resistant glass. but i afraid that i accidentally could scratch
my X8's screen without using S-Ps.
SINGLE SCRATCH COULD SPOILS OUR ENTIRE USING EXPERIENCE OF THE X8
any suggestion and used experience could help me alot.Thanks in ADVANCE
sorry for my bad english.
I would recommend you to use a screen guard but not the original one..
Its crap..
I bet you can get a good quality screen guard at the price of about 2 USD..
And about gsmarena.

I used screen without protector for a week(for testing if its unscratchable!) , & its scratched a little .so its not like gorilla glasses.(I was really taking care of phone & it scratched by my finger & nail!!!!)
Screen quality is PERFECT without screen protector !
#now using protector which hides(or covers) the scratched surfaces so its ok now
This is JAY-Z-S
I'm currently not using any from 2 months & it's fine
see boot animation without rebooting
a user says have scratches and another one said not have scratches for along time without screen protector.

ARMv6 and ARM6 are not the same.
By the way, I use a phone case instead of using a screen protector, and the phone has only one scratch which it got when I hadn't a phone case yet.
I never used screen protector and i never faced any problem. It is true that my phone has some minor scratches but it doesn't affect user experience in any way, you can only see them when sreen is off.
And judging from my use, x8 has Scratch-resistant glass. lol
Edit: I just remembered that once i tried to scratch it with a knife and it didn't do a thing, i'm not maniac i was just testing it, and i have to admit that i didn't pushed too much but i pushed it.

Spot on. Mine has had enough chances to get completely scratched and it hasn't, only minor scratches that aren't visible when the screen is on. Compared to my sister's LG it's very tough glass.

Possible minor scratches that don't affect user experience at all. But, if you are so obsessed about scraches why don't you just buy a new screen protector that will not affect your touching
i'm not using any screen protectors on my w8 and can't see any scratches, btw you can buy anti-fingerprint protector, it helps a litter bit but gives your screen some blur lol

Question about removing Xperia Z's anti-shatter film

Hi guys, just curious about this, I would like to remove the front screen protector of Xperia Z to get rid of the Sony logo (not hate it put prefer the front to be all black). Would this affect the phone's water resistant feature?
Have anyone tried this yet?
Besides, is the oleophobic coating of the glass affected? From the video below I think there's something wrong with his phone, the reflection looks pixelated

I have done it and it doesnt affect water resistant feature (its a film how can it affect the whole phone?)
the screen have little to no oleophobic feature, your best bet is to buy some rain-x spray it on there or buy another screen protector that have oleophobic property.
I'd leave it alone for the simple reason you'll regret it. I don't see how you could remove it, you can cover it over in some way but it's not going to look good and would be noticeable from certain angles.

It's scratches I'd be more concerned about, which is why I always stick one on top of the factory one because if or when I come to sell it, a pristine screen will get more than one that's scuffed to bits.

IT WILL SCRATCH.
IT WILL BREAK AND IT WILL SCRATCH.
My previous xperia z had antishatter removed and the screen scratched from a sand particle hidden in my microfibre cloth, if you decide or have taken of antishatter film, put on a screen protector as soon as you can. Preferably you should put on a good quality screen protector onto antishatter film. That way you will have constant new looking phone.
Which is what I've done with my NEW Xperia z.
after taking off antishatter layer on my first phone, AIthough i was trying to convince myself that it feels better, and looks better debranded,
Everytime the beautiful nostalgic sony ad came on, and the guy took out his xperia z to take a picture of his girlfriend covered in courfull dry paint. And then washed his xperia z afterwards showing off that beautiful sony logo. My heart would sink ,as I knew my phone would never look like that ever again.

Matte Screen Protector for ZR

Hi all !
I just bought THIS screen protector and just loving it.
I was worried about the fitting to the screen but the precision laser cut was very accurate, fits exactly to the screen.
I applied it myself for the first time, it is magnetic(does not leave adhesive residue) so you can always remove apply it correctly. The matte finish is just excellent
It is for Indian users but the seller said they import these from abroad so the same brand can be found on international sites too.
I got a clear screen protector and i like it better than matte finish.

2) are the aftermarket protectors better than the sony stock protector?

Thank you, for your suggestion I got 3 matte and 6 clear screen protectors I will see how it goes and which I like best. Has anyone removed the pre-installed protector from their device. I'm concerned that I'll remove the SONY logo if I get rid of it (I hear that happened on xperia Z units). Is there any danger in removing it and should I remove it at all or just place the new one on top of it?
Place the new one on top. Doesn't dampen sensitivity too much.

matte
At first didn't like my matte screen protector...
Pros
feels nicer!
no filthy finger prints!
minimal light reflections..
if you use dim backlight it really helps..
you can re apply it.
no air bubbles at all!
Cons
unable to use it as a mirror when screen off.
colours and images on the screen are not as sharp,
slight glow on whites.
But now i wouldn't go back!
I'm still waiting for my screen protector and today I noticed a tiny scratch on the screen. It's not that visible but is there a way to fix that. Will the screen protector cover it or I'm stuck with a scratched SONY?

Take a pencil eraser and rub it off..
It should not be the screen itself. Sony is known to apply screen protectors on each phone in-manufacture. It's not visible but if you insist you can remove it. It's even possible that the sony logo is simply printed on it, like the Xperia V.

Removing the anti-shatter film will invalidate the warranty.
Seriously?? How could this void the warranty? It has nothing to do with the hardware and doesn't affect the device in any way!

Yes, there are a lot users talking about it, removing the shatter-proof screen protector voids the warranty because it'll no longer be shatter proof.....stupid isn't it? I already scratched mine before knowing that, now I'm stuck with a scratched screen until my warranty ends and I remove the f****ing thing.
is this detail specified in the texts ?

I can't really say I haven't researched this, what I know for sure is that this protector is factory heated onto the screen and it's not supposed to be removed.
Hi,
I'm trying to find a screen protector for a whole display, without any holes in it.. I found this: amazon.de/dp/B00K1JTIMG/ but of course, I'm not sure if it's a picture of a real product or just illustrative picture. can someone confirm / recommend something else?

You are right. The protector is factory-heated onto the screen, remove it and the Sony logo will go off. As for the warranty, there are two paragraphs Sony could use against you if you remove the protector (as stated by the Important information brochure):
Do not paint or attempt to disassemble or modify the product. Only Sony authorized personnel should perform service.

Additionally, "What we will do" section, says:

I know it is not very specific, but hey, that's how lawyers do it.
The only thing I always wonder about, is what kind of glass ZR's screen uses... GorillaGlass? DragonTrail? I found many different sites talking about that, but none of them had conclusive evidence. Sony's official response is ZR uses a "Shatter proof and scratch-resistant glass". No specific brand mentioned .
Anyway, I bought a good protector for 5 bucks. It's a "KLX Anti-explosion Soft TPU 0.2mm Screen Guard Film" and the package includes everything you need to apply it successfully. Also, I saw a 1mm tempered glass protector for 15 bucks, thinking of buying it next time.
