Original Screen Protector - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I got a Brand New EE Xperia Z1 and noticed it came with a separate screen protector. I am just wondering is this the Shatterproof Screen protector or is that already on the phone?
I am only asking as I have already bought a tempered glass one, and was happy to put it on top of the shatterproof one, but not sure if thats it or is it just a standard thing that I can take off and put the glass one on? (plus I already have bubbles on the one that came in the box!)

The one that I'd already on is the one with eh Sony branding on.

Do you use film in Xperia Z?

I'm in doubt buy a protective film to use the Xperia Z, but I'm afraid to lose touch sensitivity and screen brightness too!
The anti-shatter that comes standard is very easy to scratch? I mean just scratch with normal use of the fingers!
On my Xperia S, the original film it was only scratching with normal use! I removed the film and left without!
But the Xperia Z to remove the film, the Sony comes out soon too and I did not want to lose it!
1) You left without anti-shatter film, only with him or bought another protective film?
2) Someone found to sell a new film with the logo of Sony?
You could remove the file to give it a cleaner look and then you can put on a screen protector that doesn't scratch like spigen ultra thin screen protector. But if you don't want to lose the logo put another screen protector on top. You won't lose screen responsiveness unless you get really bad quality screen protectors.
Press thanks if I helped

I bought Zagg Invisible Shield, is it good?
I have a minimal scratch on the back , used the phone very carefully but I don't know how I got it ( it's very small but it is) so it's scratches very quick ( at least in my case ) so I bought a film for the back. I will buy for the front too , but I will wait a little bit cause here in my stupid country we don't have alternatives

U also can use skinomi they also offer lifetime warranty and are a better price. Same stuff as zagg and I personally think they are better. I never had them peeling off or getting that nasty yellow tint like the zagg do become.

Zagg is best I ever used
I got this at the store. The rep gave me an extra $50 off my XZ if I spent it on accessories (he gets commission on acc. I guess). The Zagg shield had all these bubbles in it after I put it on. I was worried. But most of them went away after a day, and all of them were gone after 2 days! Also, the surface feels great.:good:
If you've ever put a screen shield on before, you know how difficult all the bubbles are to get out. This material just doesn't care about bubbles. It's great!:good:
I use to be a zagg fan but ever since trying spigens glass t and tr i'll never use anything but tempered glass again the feels superior no finger prints not scratch it's great there's other company's also stop easy to install it practically does it itself

would still like to see pics of the phone with the casemate tough case and the spigen glass. I have rhino shield which is great but still picks up fingerprints.

I'm looking for buying one, just watched the videos from skinomi, I like how to apply it with the liquid and that we can try several time to get aligned correctly (unlike sony's film).
Do Spigen and Zagg also come with a liquid or to remove re apply several times ?
Sorry for noobish question but I never bought this type of screen protectors.
also do they all works fine upon sony's anti shatter film ? I can see the logo still here in skinomi video.
Zagg ship for free in europe that's a good point too.

Here you go:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2456985
In the "Xperia Z1 Accessories" forums.
Like you said, you don't want scratches. So just go ahead and apply one. The default anti-shatter film pre-applied to the back isn't very scratchproof.
What's the best way to applie this screen/back protectors!?. I'm worried about spending money, and then making a hash of things! :-S

I dont use a case and any screen protector.
Cases will increase the dimensions which is already long enough and screen protectors will affect the display effect which is already not good enough
No issues here with screen protector on display...

[Q] Screen Protector Options for Z1S?

Hello all, I am hoping to buy the Z1S through tmobile since I had the Z and loved it. The problem I'm having is all of the tempered glass screen protectors are for the Z1 which has the proximity sensor on the left of the Sony logo. I don't know what effect it will have putting a Z1 protector on and having it cover up the proximity sensor/light sensor.
What are you Z1S owners doing for screen protectors?
Our phone already has a screen protector so I'm not putting double screen protectors one it. When the oem one scratches up, I'll just replace it.

That is true, but the Tempered glass screen protectors are very nice and I'm not sure I want to go back to the plastic film ones. Not to mention there are very few xperia z1s PET film ones that I can find.
I got this one

I have the same brand on my nexus 5 and love it, but this one is designed for the internation Z1 which is why I was asking this question in the first place. The cutout for the light sensor is on the wrong side for the US version and it would be covered.
I just purchase a case and screen protector at tmobile corporate store. They have three different case and one no name scree protector.

I dont think it should i mean the glass its only 0.3 mm tick which shouldnt make as much differance for the sensors. The sensors are already covered by screen protector that it put by sony you could always take the stock screen procector off and then but the glass one on your screen.
Don't do that... Sony logo is rumored to be on screen protector.

Since 2008 on XDA still posting in the wrong section:silly:
There is no screen protector that comes with the phone.
It's advised to get a tempered glass screen protector imo
I got one with my phone, in the box. I just want to buy another so I was wondering what it was.

Sony doesn't deliver the phone with a screen protector, so you'll have to ask he shop where you bought it.
But in my opinion Tempered glass screen protectors are a lot better then the normal ones.

Unless you bought it from Sony itself (the phone) there is no certainty that it's Sony that put the screen protector in the box.
Most of us that bought the phone didn't got a screen protector, so it would be really weird if Sony only sold a couple of units with a screen protector and most without one. That's why I think that
the screen protector is from a third party.
Else I want my free screen protector SONY! :silly:

I got mine from O2 UK. The box was sealed and did include the Sony Charger (O2 had a policy to not supply the OEM charger at some point in time)

(If I'm correct) Most of us got their phones with an unsealed box, so it could've been an O2 only deal.
Mine was ee in again in a sealed box with the protector in
I bought one friday, a screen protector was included!

It's been the third Z3c I've had, all of them came with a screen protector. One from Sony directly, the other two from carrier, sealed. All my friends got one. stop making "There is no screen protector that comes with the phone" a statement because it's false....and stop being a forum police.
Only complain - They are all matte screen protector which kills the details of the screen.
Cheers.

I've also bought the Z3C 3 times and none of them were either sealed nor came with a screen protector. I believe most people that bought the phone when it just came out got their device in a unsealed box.

Mine was bought from a SONY store in the US, and it came with a plastic screen protector. It is matte, and it made the screen look muddy. I used it until my tempered glass protector got delivered. The glass screen protector, of course, looks much better. I'd also imagine that a "crystal clear" plastic one would look better as well. But, TBH, the glass screen protector I ordered looks much clearer and nicer than any "crystal clear" plastic screen protector I've ever used.

Ummm...read again, most people in this thread got a screen protector.
bought direct Sony Canada in November of last year, screen protector included
I pre-ordered mine from the UK from one of the two major internet retailers and had it shipped to me here in Australia.
It came in a sealed box and there was a screen protector supplied.
TL;DR - Sealed box with screen protector from UK.
I also got one, and it sucks. Got it replaced with tempered glass, much, much better.
