I don't really like putting my gadgets in cases that make them any more bulky than they already are, and I've been using an Invisible Shield full-body set for my Tilt since '07. I ordered an Incredible S, and it seems there is a screen protector offered from ZAGG for the Inc S. I've had good mileage with the protectors for the Tilt, so here's to hoping they offer a full-body kit for the Incredible S as well as just the screen film.
They seem to do it already, here -

Well looking at this they should do pretty soon anyway!
They only have the screen protector on the manufacturer site (ZAGG), though I'd imagine the full body protection can't be far behind. Then again, the unique back may prove to be a challenge.

I have an HTC Touch HD2 since one year and this is my first telephone with capacitive screen. I did not put any screen protector because the screen in made of glass so actually very difficult if not impossible to scratch. And after one year the screen has no sign of scratch. So, because the Incredible is capacitive screen too, so made of glass, what is the purpose of a screen protector?
Thanks

I don't know about you, but I treat my gadgets pretty badly. I treat technology as a whole as a means to an end. I stuff my phone in my pocket with keys, I toss it across the table to friends, I generally abuse it. When I told my father you could take notes on my phone, he wrote on it with a ballpoint pen...
I use a screen protector, no matter what.
I'm also waiting on the official release from ZAGG for the Invisible Shield screen protector for my Incredible S.

The screen protection is available for something like 15 dollars, but full body protection still isn't available. I asked whether or not it was in the works, but got an evasive response... We might not be getting full body protection for it so I'm starting to keep an eye out for soft-touch cases (silicone, rubber-feel hard cases etc.).

It has Gorilla Glass (by Corning) which is tempered and resistant but not scratch proof. Eventually, it does get scratched which is why I'd like a screen protector as well.
The problem with screen protectors is they're cut so they cover the front camera and unfortunately that degrades the image quality of a camera that's already pretty limited.
I'll have to look into the XtremeGuard, but the main reason I like ZAGG is I've had their full body kit for my Tytn II for 3 years, and it has seen a ton of abuse. The skin did eventually get scratched, which I e-mailed ZAGG about and they offered a free replacement. I didn't really mind the scratch (it was on one of the side strips) so I didn't bother, but I like the way their representatives handled the situation.
All of the screen protectors I have received with cases for my IS (I have tried 3 different makes) have had a cut-out for the front facing camera

I ordered me an extreme guard screen protector off ebay for 2.99. Just like Zagg but way cheaper. I was gone do full body for 4.99 but I have my phone in a case. I think a case holds up against the impact of a drop better than a full body skin.

not with sgp ultra crystal, what screen protector are you using?
AW: Don't use a screen protector
Was just about to say. Use a real protector and not some transparent plastic you found in your fridge.
In defense of iujona some expensive "military grade" screen protectors are almost like sticking a combination of bubble plastic and syrup to your screen.
I finally settled for a hard plastic variety that does not get marked by my S-Pen and cheap enough to change every month or so.
A screen protector goes a long way towards protecting your screen from enemies like sand. It also helps in preventing dynamic tension release. Allow me to explain. When gorilla glass is made, the final step is to dip the glass into a polymer, which makes a thin oleophobic coating, and then shrinks a bit, making a tight fit. This greatly improves durability, but puts the entire pane under orthogonal volumetric shearing strain, or for the common man's day to day vocabulary, stress. When the screen them scratches, this stress/pressure is released, and causes a crack, similar to how one would score a glass pane to cut it. The panel of glass will, on the next fall, fail along this near invisible hairline. Screen protectors prevent the layer on the glass from breaking in this manner, by acting as the first line of defence.
Tl;dr: spans l spend a few bucks on a good screen protector, even if you feel its a tad expensive. It's a miniscule portion of what was spent on the phone, and is well worth it

True, yet...
1. people report that after the factory fitted protector is removed, the glass does not exhibit oleophobic properties
2. as can be taken from above, a protector is already fitted, so the shattering effect should be eliminated already
3. I spend a whopping 20 bucks on the one I ordered and planning to glue it on top of the already fitted one
What a great and insightful thread
DO USE a screen protector.
If your screen protector caused any losses in responsivenes or clarity - change brand because it's not very good...

I put on an 'invisibleshield' from zagg and haven't noticed any difference in response.
It set me back about 15 pounds sterling but since my last phones screen got badly scratched bouncing around in my pocket, I figured that 15 bucks really wasn't much.
It's worth looking after stuff sometimes.

Christ, just rip off the protective foil. Then you'll have a -lo and behold- scratch resistant screen! Or make up your mind on a 2nd protector to buy.
I don't understand why I need a thick foil on a screen that doesn't scratch. No other recent phone needs it. Neither does this. And don't bring up the shatter thing again. If it breaks it breaks. You can drop it and break it without shattering the display.

Today we’re looking at the GHOST GLASS screen protector by MIMEusa.
This is a premium tempered glass screen protector and I literally just rub the screen sometimes because it's so smooth and clear.
Click here to see a video slideshow of Ghost glass and an overview of installation
Main advantage: real protection, responsive to finger and s-pen, easy install, smooth, clear, and priced very well
Main concern: NONE.
Unique features: hardness comparable to steel
Screen protectors are one of those necessary evils that we fight ourselves on with every phone purchase. We research and drool over the latest super phone with Gorilla Glass 2 screens and beautiful exteriors made of aluminum, ceramic, etc. We'll watch videos leading up to a phone's release that show people attacking the screen with keys, knives, nails, and more all without a scratch. Then after all that we purchase the phone and immediately buy cases, screen protectors, sleeves, holsters, everything we can possibly find to cover up the features we obsessed over and made us purchase the phone in the first place. It's an internal struggle that will go on and on until the first phone made completely out of unobtanium coated diamond is released. Since it's inevitable that we'll go through this, why not make the best of it?
I hadn't heard of MIMEusa before researching this article. They do one thing extremely well out of their New York City location. Mime is a team of engineers from two “major research universities” that are trying (read: succeeding) at creating the highest quality screen protector that I've seen to date. The GHOST GLASS is fingerprint resistant, has a technical hardness equal to steel, and a crystal clear and smooth surface that feels better than the Galaxy Note 2's stock screen. You heard correctly, this is an improvement over the screen that has shipped with over 10 million phones to date.
After install (which you can see more about in the video slideshow) the glass looks and feels like a ¼ inch thin sheet of ice has formed over your screen. The anti chip curved edges and perfectly measured button cutout complete the feeling of a really personalized experience. A lot of companies try to rush to market. You can tell when a screen protector is sloppily engineered to be close enough, this isn't that product. In fact, this couldn't be more perfectly measured for the Note 2. The edges extend just enough to cover but not interfere with any kind of case of bumper that might attach to the edge closely. The aforementioned button cutout doesn't leave a millimeter of space more than it needs. As odd as it sounds (and sometimes looks) I'll find myself just running my fingers along the screen while reading or staring off into space. It's that smooth.
The real reason that we buy a glass screen protector is the protection. If all goes well, during a naked drop with impact enough to break your screen, the protector should shatter and spare the screen. I don't have the resources to fully test this theory, but it seems plausible enough. A 1565 BHN / 9H Hardness rating are a bunch of numbers that show that MIME knows more than enough to make a great screen protector that I easily trust my own personal phone to everyday. 9H is one below the tops of 10H, this is the hardest glass screen protector I've seen on offer. All the protection comes without sacrifice too. No orange peel or rainbow effects, no touch screen dulling, not a single deterring factor. It's very affordable too under $30. MIME is making a strong attempt to win you over and it worked on me. I'll buy their protectors as long as our phones need them.
Until the inevitable day that Google or Apple turns cellphones into floating magnetic halos that project everything into our own personal conversation domes.
Thank you again to MIME for supplying their product for review.
Alternatives: Spigen Steinheil (4H hardness), Xgear Voyager 2 (8H hardness), Seidio Vitreo (9H hardness)
How much: $27.99 with free U.S. Shipping from mimeusa.com
Click here and scroll through the review to get the links to buy the product if you'd like
Is it worth buying: To top everything off, MIME has a Lifetime replacement program that allows you to get a new screen cover for 40% off if you ever find a way to break it. If you're ready to purchase, they are offering free shipping within the US with the code: 12238 at checkout. BUY WITH CONFIDENCE.
ENJOY YOUR GADGETS!
Why aren't you doing real video clips?
So, my comment about MIME. Considering we had a very long thread/discussion about their temp glass protectors with 20 pages and 190 replies and a lot of complains, I assume this is their new redesigned 2nd gen protector. What MIME failed to realize in their original design was that Note 2 screen is curved toward the edges, and because we are talking about 9H hard tempered glass rather than flexible PET film - it will NOT stick to the edges/corners and people had bubbles that didn't go away for weeks. And I remember people mentioning their return policy wasn't great either. Not sure if that has changed (regarding return policy), but they went ahead redesigning their screen protector back in early May, and now from these pictures I see its has a lot more margin from the edges of the display. That's the only right way to do it, following footsteps of Seidio VITREO for Note 2 (my person weapon of choice ). It's a challenge to make tempered glass for Note 2, and even Spigen hang their towel on it.
My question to snapz/Phil, please let us know when all the bubbles going to disappear and how does it stick to edges? I recently talk to someone in another forum who mentioned about still having problems with edges not sticking in a few places.
Mine personally went away within 3 days. I followed the directions carefully and I was very careful. I've used it with numerous cases and it worked great for a couple months of daily use before I had to remove it to test another screen protector.
All communication that I've personally had with Mime was great. Quick responses and clear dialogues back and forth. I can only speak to my own personal experiences through testing. I'm sure that if anyone had an issue and they attempted to calmly and professionally contact Mime and explain themselves clearly they would see a good response.
If you're one of the people who bought a Mime screen protector and didn't receive an acceptable response when you tried to contact them about an issue, then please share your experience here and I will personally talk to my contact and try to get an answer as to what happened.
I've been in contact with engineers, project managers, and CEOs in the past and most companies are very open to real clear honest input.
Regarding the style of video that I post. I can more easily control the quality of the images captured through photo rather than video. Perhaps in the future I'll change to live video, but for now I'm happy with the style I've chosen. I can get closer and use lighting to try to clearly illustrate everything I think you might want to see as a consumer.
I just ordered mine, can't wait to receive it & slap it on my phone, have heard nothing but good things about it, can't complain with the decent price though

My reviews reflect my personal feelings as a consumer after a thorough evaluation. I always do everything that I can to explore all angles and show the whole picture. That doesn't mean that I won't speak truth to you. I'm not a robot, I'm a person who owns and enjoys a Note 2 just like you. You will see my own opinions and ideas peppered throughout. If you don't appreciate my specific point of view than my reviews won't be for you unfortunately.
I'm not questioning any of that, but you clearly stated that this sp is an improvement over an naked screen you didn't say "I think" or "to me it feels", you stated it as a fact. If you want to voice your personal opinions the tell is they are your opinions, but refrain from certainties.

Aside from that I installed the protector & am loving it, it's really smooth & has awesome screen clarity, it adheres to the screen really well on its own & was really easy to install. I don't have much experience with glass screen protectors as this is my first, but I highly recommend it to all of you, if you guys have any questions regarding the protector, feel free to ask me, I'll answer & help out with as much as I can

I think more people have issue with some screen protectors that don't allow the s-pen to glide across the screen during use. It will register the pen's contact because it works through magnet I believe, just isn't pleasant or easy to work with. Some matte screen protectors or those with anti fingerprint coatings can cause the pen to "stick" a bit at times from some posts that I've read.
Then just say that instead of saying that the spen won't work with cheap screen protectors. All it takes is 1 misleading post and you'll have 50 people out there swearing the the spen won't work with this sp or that sp.

The question is:
Which glass screen protector will have the greatest coverage (closest to the edges) as most, if not all, glass protectors are cut short stopping right before the curves near the edges.
This may be a problem.....having second thoughts about glass screen protectors now...
I think the iloom e might have full coverage. They bragged about being the first to do it on iPhone 6 and that also has the 2.5D glass as well.
i grabbed this one, and it shipped really fast; not sure how it will work, but its full coverage, and under 9 bucks!

I don't use screen protectors either. But ever since I saw a few people here at work with glass screen protectors on their new iphones I've been looking around and they seem pretty awesome. I've seen a few videos on youtube where they smash the screen with a hammer and only the protector broke with the screen left intact.. Also the anti-fingerprint coating is a plus. The cases I buy always have to have a lip but the screen protector is just in case.
This UAG case I have on my note 2 has saved my phone so so many times from being dropped 5ft in the air flat on its face.
The tech armor doesn't come close to covering the whole screen..piss
I have always been partial to invisisheilds. The extreme versions is what I've used on my pass galaxy devices. Then I moved to the glass version of their product on my note 3. It was perfectly clear had a life time warranty. I am looking forward to using the same for my note 4.
I bought the Envelop one. Thing isn't even big enough, just ordered a Spigen one.
I bought two Spigens based on reputation and price: $3.49 each (plus $5.00 shipping) at the early morning (ET) Amazon flash sale. If I had to pay full price, I'd also consider a non-glass solution, Rhino Shield.
Darn, I bought the tech armor glass last week. I guess it'll have to hold me over until better ones come out. I bought it direct from Techarmor.com and used promo code TechArmor2962 for 30% off. Came out to be $9. I bought the Spigen one for the iPhone 6 and it didn't cover the entire front either.
I am still debating on whether to buy screen protectors either glass or not as I haven't used screen protectors in years and everything I have/had was/is fine...
but seeing how the note 4 would be the most expensive mobile/handheld device I've bought and come to think of it probably the most expensive thing I have every bought in my life I might wanna protect it from here and back XD

Rhino Shield's website has a variety of videos persuasively showing the need for some kind of screen protection. As between their product and a good glass screen protector, there seem to be both pluses and minuses, so long as one is willing to accept the fact that, in an acute situation, the glass screen protector will be destroyed.
Any of the glass protectors available leave the space between the home button and the bottom of the phone exposed? I don't think I want a glass protector that encircles the home button because that would mean trouble for the fingerprint scanner as far as I can tell - a sticker for the home button would surely interfere with it.
Thanks!

For what it's worth, I have the Mime Ghost glass protector and it encircles the home button. It doesn't effect the finger print scanner at all. It works great.
With that being said, I can't recommend the Mime. Like other glass protectors thus far the sides are no where close to staying flush against the screen.

I normally look at amazon reviews. I am currently using a Casebase LG G3 glass screen protector, looking at amazon reviews in .DE and also .CO.UK this has the highest reviews as well
I am going to email Casebase now and ask them if they are making these for the upcoming LGG4 and if yes i will stick with them. You get 2 glass screen protectors in the pack and one of them is a spare
Hi, i would like to pre-order one, to receive it before the g4. Which one is the best for you?

In regards to which protector would be best; I am not at liberty to make any judgement since I don't yet have the phone nor screen protectors. However, I would agree with the above poster that waiting for amazon reviews to come out is certainly in your best interest. Allow the other people to identify which products do and do not work. You'll save yourself time and money that way.

I've got a LG G3 and I ordered a screen protector from Amazon a while ago and it's a really great fit from a company called Casebase! I'm going to probably order another one for my G4. But as the previous comments have suggested you could wait for reviews and such, or you could use your previous experiences to make a purchase before hand, that's what I'm doing!
Hope this helps
Hi Guys here is the reply i got from casebase.com. I have just ordered one from amazon as well.
Hi Jack,
Glad you are very happy with the glass screen protector for the LG G3. I can confirm we have launched the glass screen protector for the LGG4. It is already being sold on amazon and it is a twin pack just like the LGG3 version. Please look out for a video going up on youtube on 14th of May showing our protector on the real device. I can confirm there are no bubbles and it covers the phone edge to edge. I suspect many other brands will not have this covering the phone edge to edge but we have used a 0.18mm korean glass for this model which does the job perfectly fine.
We hope your very happy with your purchase
Kind regards, Casebase
Think about Zagg.
I had it with G3 and I has used it for 8 months until it got damaged.
The easy clean layer never faded.

I'm a little hesitant with zagg-- after reading some of the people on other xda forums that have issues with them, and zero customer support, I would consider an enjoyable experience to be a lucky one as well. I've personally never had them because of the high price tag, but I've heard now several stories of how the quality has gone down the tubes in recent time. Again, this could be speculation, or what have you, but from what I've seen, the company is not what it used to be.

I managed to order the phone on saturday and also the casebase twin pack glass screen on saturday from amazon.de (they are showing in stock for the phone today as well which is way before release date) My tracking shows it should be here tomorrow. I will give you my honest opinion of the casebase glass screen protector when i have installed it
Regarding Zagg, they lost the screen protector game ages ago. They are just over priced and a known high street retail ripp of brand.
Companies like casebase, Spigen, Orzly, Luvitt all make good glass screen protectors at a third of the price online.
Is a screen protector actually able to prevent a screen from shattering when the phone is dropped?

in my experience i would say yes
I have dropped my phone twice this last year and shattered the glass screen protector. When i have removed it my real screen underneath has been fine
I think glass screen protectors are the most essential accessory for any smart phone

What's to say that if there was no screen protector that the screen wouldn't have been fine? I haven't used a screen protector since the G1 and never had a screen shatter of crack yet. Even with various drops. Although I could just be lucky. Or it could be a false sense of security the protectors provide?

HI - In my opinion its not a case of false sense of security. Each time i have dropped my phone hard enough and the glass screen has broken im sure if it wasn't for this glass screen protection then the phone screen would of broke. It would of at least chipped it a little bit. Either way for me its not worth the risk. I change my phones once a year and buy them simm free so its not a risk worth taking

My LG G4 and casebase glass screen arrived yesterday. I can confirm the casebase Lg g4 glass screen is a perfect fit and covers all the corners as well. I will upload some pictures and maybe a short video over the weekend
The case i am using is a Orzly Lg g4 fusion case, it offers very solid protection around the sides but also shows of the back of the phone as the case is transparent on the back. All in all my phone looks gorgeous :good::good::good:
So this will be my first phone with a curved screen. I'm assuming that the screen protector will also be curved?

The Nillkin is really excellent glass protector & has the bonus of 2 rear Camera protectors too, a bit scarce at the moment but there are a few on Ebay

it's supposed to help in the prevention of the screen shattering. It does not guarantee it, but it certainly helps.
