Tempered glass screen protectors for the G2 are available...

Ships on 10/4 apparently... It looks like it's some kind of glass, maybe not the normal hard tempered glass type, but they claim 8H hardness.

Looks interesting. If you order one, let us know how it is.

YES finally!!

Careful, looks like this protector goes all the way to the edge of the screen. The edges of the G2 are curved, which means a screen protector will not attach properly

Of course you realize that is not a real product photo, right?
I am certain the actual shipping product fits properly.

The one you linked is flexible, so I'm not sure it's real glass. The site also links a more expensive tempered glass option which is thicker which I may pick up.
Only thing that could make it better is if it included the black top and bottom sections to cover the Verizon and lg logos.

I've never used a tempered glass screen protector.
How does it feel/look compared to regular screen protectors?
What benefits does tempered have over regular screen protectors?

Its clearer for one, the feel is just like using the phone without a protector at all.

I'm the WORST at putting these dang screen protectors on, no steady hands. Knowing my luck i'll finally get it on and aligned right with no bubbles then to only notice i have fingerprint marks underneath, lol!!!

when i got my gs4 it was the first time i ever decided to use a tempered glass screen protector. i bought a mime glass screen protector. now i cant go back to the screen protectors that are flimsy like zaggs. the glass screen protector feels just like you are touching the screen itself and the sensitivity as far as the phone goes, it thinks you are just touching its own glass so you lose none. only way you can tell you got 1 on will be at the top where the cut out for the ear piece will be. they are more expensive but if you want the best i'd recommend getting a glass screen protector. i'm hoping mime picks up the g2. they have the best customer support.

Ah, that's new from the other day... Not sure I like the rounded corners on it, they don't follow the contour of the actual screen. Sort of ghetto...

You do know glass can bend without breaking right? Fiber cables are glass.

just watched a few reviews on iloome glass screen protectors and they were all positive.. nothing negative.. I just installed the crystal hd by spigen which is pretty darn close to perfect.. these are undetectable other than the edges and not 100 percent the feel of glass.. I'd say 85 percent. I'll definitely purchase the glass one next time mostly for teh glass feel.. they are only around 10-15 dollars more.

Just FYI, I looked around some more and I saw a video of the "flex" model and it does "crack" on impact like a full glass one during the impact test. Obviously none of these splinter into shards to cut you, but the flexible one is definitely made of a material that is brittle enough to crack in the familiar spider web pattern of traditional tempered glass.
You can see this here at 7:25:

Just ordered one for my G2.
I got one similar on my Canon 5D MKIII DSLR and absolutely LOVE it!

Interesting this makes my choice harder

Anyone try the GLAS Screen protector before?

Scare that the screen will be cracked and I don't want to use the flip case. I wonder is that necessary to use the screen protector like this :
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Gal...otectors&var=460214742391&hash=item25833c60f5
it looks really good but the problem is will it too thick? and the price is seriously too high (for a screen protector).
Any suggestion?

But the glas.tr on amazon. It's tempered so if you drop the phone the screen protector might crack but your actual phone screen won't. Check some YouTube videos. Extremely durable.

It's a good glass protector albeit at the typical high price. No regular screen protector feels as smooth as a tempered glass protector but you'd have to wait for the generic ones to show up on ebay if you're looking for a lower price.

I think a good Screen protector is definitely worth it. when I got my Note 2 last year I didn't use a screen protector and chipped my screen within a week of getting it.

Ya, I check couple of youtube that's awesome to watch they use screw and hammer try to destroy it :laugh:
Thanks for remind me it also sell on amazon and their company locate in CA which pretty closed to me!

I had one on my last device. Dropped it pretty nasty on concrete and while the Glas.Tr screen protector cracked in the corner, the device's screen was minty fresh and had no damage. If you drop your phone as often as I do, it's definitely worth it. I'm waiting till they officially release from Spigen on Amazon so I can use Prime on it.

Are the people on Amazon crying about bubbles popping up after a few weeks with the GLAS protectors typical morons, or is it not just a matter of user error?

Both lol they work fine. Ams Definitely worth the money

SNP Tempered Glass Protector

Review on SNP Tempered Glass Protector. I finally received it from Korea and put them on. It took about little over 2 weeks to receive this.
I thought I did good installation on the Tempered glass protector, but all around the edges I had gaps.
I contacted the seller and they told me that this screen protector is not for Verizon model, because of the 1mm curved edges.
I guess the Korean version of the G2 dont have curved edges and I dont know about Atnt or Tmobile models.
They are giving me a full refund for this since they didnt mention that it is not for Verizon models.
But if you have the Korean Version of the phone I really recommend it.
First the costumer service is excellent.
Second, the Tempered glass protector covers close to edge to edge.
And third, the responsiveness and the clarity is excellent.
My fingers were sliding across really easy.
Since the protector is edge to edge you cant use cases like the Diztronic cases or SGP Slim armor, etc.
So you have to use the ones like Poetic Palette or Incipio Feather cases.
I mean I still have them on since the quality of the Tempered glass protector is really good.
Until I find another Tempered glass protector that I want comes out, I think im just going to leave it on.
* Pro
- Close to edge to edge coverage.
- Responsiveness and the clarity is excellent.
- Smooth feeling
* Con
- Not for Verizon LG G2
Here is a link to the product that I have bought.

I'm like 99% sure all versions have the curved edges on the front glass.

The seller told me that they dont have any problems on Korean version. Im sure they try out the protector on the device before they sell it.
But yeah...have to wait for another tempered glass protector comes up...was thinking about trying iloome ScreenMate Flex Flexible Glass for G2.
Have anyone tried this?

it looks like there's major bubbles on the edges.

I bought a Clasy korea tempered glass SP and the edges look exactly like yours. No offence, but I just can't take that gap. It does look like tiny bubbles and that forms a "silver lining" on the screen.
I'm having an international D802 and I really don't think any glass SP will fit perfectly on any G2 model. However, I think the normal plastic ones may work though.
Seriously planning to remove it and go naked..

I have tried out 2 different tempered glass protector so far...and didnt find the one that fits my phone perfectly.

Tried the spigen glass protector for my iPhone 5 and wasn't all that thrilled with it. For the money at least

Just using cheap ones from Verizon, can't find a decent tempered one :/

Screen protector made for cases?

Hi, I've tried a few screen protectors now, but every time I put on my case it peels back the protector bc it's too close to the edges of the phone.
Does anyone know of any screen protectors that are meant for the G2 with a normal case on?

What kind of screen protectors have you used and what kind of case do you have?
Generally it shouldn't be much of a problem for the LG G2 since the screen protectors are usually cut "too small" due to the curved glass near the edges.
I GreatShield anti-glare screen protectors (PET) and they fit perfectly with my Spigen Slim Armor case.

Don't have a link because I'm too lazy to find it but honestly, it should be the same no matter which protector you buy. At this point I don't know of any brand that makes a protector for the G2 that goes to the edges of the screen.

They make one that is cut smaller to accommodate cases. I like that it is wet application too. Easier to slide around and get the placement perfect than dry application types.

Interesting... I might try it after I use up my current screen protectors.
This is the screen protector I got.
I definitely don't recommend the anti-glare screen protectors though since they appear to pixelate your screen. Bought an anti-glare screen protector at the same time from Fosmon and it was the same as well.

Evecase Screen Protector Variety Pack with 2x Clear and 2x Anti-Glare Matte Film for LG G2 amazon

Get the Skinomi TechSkin, edge-toedge, wet apply and its great, i have it with the full body carbon fiber skin also.

Obliq Pure Crystal + Diztronic TPU case, very tight tolerances. Took me three times to get it put down right, each time was just a hair off, but enough that squeezing the case on the side popped up the edge of the protector.
Even my third try wasn't perfect, it was still popping up a little in one place, but this morning it has gone away. I'll keep an eye on it, I figured I was going to be trying it once more today.
Otherwise, it was an easy placement, looked even on sides, just a hair off. But that's all it takes

On my Galaxy Nexus, was told by Ghost Amour to just trim the edges a bit and that solved the case problem for me. I think you could use any protector if you did this.

Are the Evecase Screens case friendly?

yes just make sure you make them close to center perfect as possible; I'm using the matte ones; they give you two matte and two clear; dont matter what brand; I even spent $13 on the SPG clear HD one; and it still feels sticky like a zagg ; IMO matte is the only way to go; but there is a Lil pixelation; cause of the matte; but its a fare trade off;
p.s. dont forget to place screen protector about about 1mm below the VZW logo ; like the top edge of the protector should be at the i of the Verizon logo

So far they don't work. I bought two. One of them was a super guardz brand and the other a vetroo. The adhesive is only used on the edges and the top and bottom so it's not like the usual tempered glass that sticks to the screen with an adhesive that's all over the protector. They're very flimsy and click a lot and won't work with a case. I preordered the OtterBox defender and I'm waiting the 1-2 months that it will take for it to come. I will be careful until then.

Xtremeguard wet apps are great for the price and stuck well to the corners. Some cases will still push it up tho.
Skinomi has the best full body protection I've seen so far, but will only work with certain cases too.
Tempered glass protectors have yet to work on any edge device to my knowledge.
Samsung official pet/dry film protectors look like they have a great fit as well, but will have issues with lifting from most cases too.
Hope some of that helps dude.

On your recommendation, that's what I'm getting until things shake out a little more. I was going to be patient until my Spigen case came in but it arrived 6 days early, lol! Now I just want to put the Note 4 away and slap a sim in the 7! I could go back to T-Mob and have them put something on, but they just pissed me off!

I have been reading that none of the curved screen protectors out now work. They are saying that they only have adhesive on the sides. Hope they will come out with one that works good.

Screen protector case combos are slim to none on phone. Spigen worked well with the skinomi, leaving edges in tact, however the bezel covers made it much harder (than the s7 edge) to get on. Overall fit and feel are good, providing better clarity and original feel compared to xtremeguard. Product fails for me because it was $30+ and the side protection was useless. I would rather spend my cash with xtremeguard and get quintuple the product. One corner refuses to go down, and is gonna bug the living hell out of me. Definitely paying for the name and advertising with this one.
Will add a few pics later on.

After searching Amazon and other sources, I decided to go with a temporary solution for now. None of the reviews can be trusted yet.

I called amazon and theu refunded me the $30 on the skinomi for the extended install time and the bunk quality of the side protection. My advice, go with Xtremeguard, they have kicked /-\$$ in every device I have had and they are beyond afforable.

The OtterBox tempered glass screen protector in this video looks interesting because it is cut smaller so it won't interfere with cases. Unfortunately, it is the most expensive of the bunch. (I am not affiliated with the video creator in any way.)

Yeah i think we all need to find a screen protector cause excuse my language but this is complete bull****. My phone has so many niks & scratches on it that it sickens me. Not even a wk with this dam thing never touched anything hard, nevet dropped & unless in my hand it sits in my pocket. Sorry but there is no dam reason i should have scratches & niks all over from maybe being in my pocket with some dam change a few times!
