Hello,
After some weeks with my Xperia Z I found out the front screen had a pre- installed protector. Now that's not where the trouble is because I got some scratches at the back unfortunately
So my question is: is there also an pre- installed protector at the back? And if so, is this back protector also printed with the Xperia logo and the other stuff?
Thanks in advance
Yes, there is a back protector which can be peeled off.And no, the XPERIA logo will not be removed

That's good to read
Do you recommend peeling it of?
And does the screens scratches lesser after removing it?
I would say leave it there till it scratches alot and then peel it off.And no, the back will be hard to scratch after you peel the protector off, but hey, , better safe than sorry

Hi guys
My front facing camera always looks very fuzzy and I suspect its bcos my screen protector is covering it. Just wondering if anyone else has the same problem and/or knows how to cut a hole in the screen protector specially for the camera?
Thanks in advance

woot~ maybe look for one with the hole already? I bought it that way for like 5 dlls at a local store, it has the hole for camera and another one like "L" for the sensors
I already checked if a clear screen protector interrupts the front camera and the answer is no. But I found out that a mirror/matte screen protector really interrupts the front camera..
You can find on ebay many good screen protectors for a few dollars.
Thks gonna go search for it now

Actl you don't need one...the gorilla glass is holding out well for me since I removed the screen protector few weeks ago. Everything on the screen seems much crisper too

Oh actually gorilla glass is quite weak against sand and coins, anyway I got the matte one but had to cut out the hole for the camera myself. ..

Hi guys,
What type of screen protector is pre-installed in our V? Because the water does not stick with the screen. I will replace my screen protector because of scratches hehe Thanks.

The original one is shatter-proof sheet. And it provides mediocre protection IMHO. It's very likely to scratch that's why I took it off and installed Zagg's screen protector. But be careful! If you want to take your protector off, you WILL lose Sony logo as it's printed on the protector!
Tapped from The Bond Phone!
So your phone has no Sony logo anymore?

Yes. Same as me. However I installed Zagg invisibleSHIELD and removed it after a week due to its rubbery feeling. (It's also not dust resistance) Living in Singapore, a dusty city, will cause my invisibleSHIELD to get very dusty and cause my screen to be less responsive. I recommend you to remove it and install those Clear/Glare-proof screen protector.

what if i install a new screen protector on the original one ? what are the consequences ?
I think there are no consequences. It totally depends on you what you will do.
Is there anyway we can but the screen protector with the sony logo.. Mine doesn't have sony logo anymore

Are there any recommendations for removing the scratches, or polishing them off? I have a tube of Displex that I bought for my PSP screen. Would this work for the camera lens cover on the phone?

Camera lens cover is made of some hard plastic material so probably best not to use any polish on it unless it is a plastic polish.

Displex appears to be some kind of plastic polish. I suppose this would suffice?

I made some lens protectors out of a screen protector....you can always do that so you don't add to the scratches.

Yeah I may end up doing that as soon as I polish off those scratches.

Here is a set - screen+lens protector
I wish they just sold replacement lenses. That's the only thing I miss about the old phones. The cover was build into the battery back

Does cutting a screen protector for lens cover not effect camera quality?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
maybe a little.
But not something noticeable for me
Did polishing work?

I am wondering if you polished the lens cover and if it was successful at removing the scratches. I have a few surface scratches on my HOX+ lens cover, and polishing seems like a reasonable solution. Thanks for any feedback.

This is the only reason I got a cover. When laying the phone flat on its back I felt I kept scratching the lens so now it has a bit more of distance between lens and table.

+1 for me. the lens of my One is always in contact with the surface it's laying on. Had the first scratches on the lens within an hour.
I don't use screen protectors or cases on any of my devices. Wondering if anyone has any scratches on the gear yet?? If so post a pic.
Has no one scratched the screen

How did it happen? Did the gear hold up better than you thought it would?
Walkin thru a door way ay work. Hit pretty hard. New the moment i hit it i may have scratched it. Its so slight that its not noticable. Actually had a hard time takin picture. Ive dinged it a few other times but thats the only scratch.

Mine is pretty badly scratched too.. :/
I was bending down to pick up a box at the house and I hit my head into my brick around the door very minor scratch. Is held up a lot better then I had expected
Be careful with those screen protectors, especially the wet kind. I took caution when I spayed the screen but after getting the protector on I noticed to my horror that there was condensation under the camera lens! Fortunately it dried over night and everything seems OK. Maybe instead of spraying the screen I should have used a cotton swab or tissue to apply the wet solution?
Lesson learned and I won't be doing that again!

As scary as that may seem, it has been common to get condensation under the camera lens. I haven't seen anyone report a permanent issue from it. The condensation can happen just by walking from a cool, dry environment to a hot and humid environment or if you sweat a lot.

I only sprayed the screen protector and not the screen, i cant even tell it's on the screen, perfect and no condesation.
Best Buy
FYI For $40 Best Buy offers scratch protection insurance
Amazon had several types of screen protectors for the gear just not sure how well they stay on.

Can't show you... tried my best to scratch it but to no avail. Dropped it from 3m (10ft) right onto asphalt with glass first... Only a small mark on the edge not visible only by running a nail on the edge can you feel it.
Got some light scratches on the front glass before I got a chance to apply a screen protector. Is there any liquid solution available that can minimize the scratches on the screen of my z1
