Sure, because it isn't slippery enough already.

Ever held a Nexus 4 or iPhone 4? Both have glass backs. They feel great. Glass is only more slippery than the brushed aluminum if you holding your phone with soapy hands. In that case, dry your hands.

Why glass?
I highly doubt that this will be possible. Putting tempered glass on a screen is one thing, but trying to put it on a curved brushed metal surface is another. If someone can pull it off then major respect to that person...
won't happen, the curved edges will never stay down, my g2 had curved edges on its screen and every glass protector had to be cut short of those edges because the edges of the protector never stuck
The best you're going to get is just a wet-apply protector for the back, like XtremeGuard or InvisibleShield. I personally would love it if Spigen still had their Incredible Shield series and made it for the M8. They had a matte fully body (wet-apply) protector which I used for my Nexus S and Macbook Air...

I've seen it for other phones, but I want one for my Nexus 7. My 6 and 2 year olds will be using it from time to time and no telling where their grubby hands have been. Anywho, can anyone tell me the name of the screen protectors that are made out of gorilla glass?

I fail to see how a screen protector made out of gorilla glass is going to do anything more than a normal screen protector.

I know the gorilla glass is strong but I dont' want the actual screen to get scratched. If the protector gets scratched, fine. After enough of them, I can replace it. But I have had in the past screen protectors start to peel up on the edge or get a bubble going along the edge. Since they are flexible, they can peel back or snag. I've seen the glass protectors before online and they seem to stick better since they aren't flexible and though a few scratches won't made it impossible to read, they do get annoying.

Just buy a high quality matte screen protector, that way you won't get grubby finger prints all over it and it will protect it from scratches. :good:
Xgear is in the process of making one now. It's not gorilla glass that I know of but is tempered glass. I had one on my Gnex and loved it!

Gorilla Glass is a trademark of (I think) Corning so unless they make it it won't be GG. I've used tempered glass protectors on camera viewfinders before and been very happy with them but it would be a huge pita trying to fit one to a Nex7 without bubbles/dust/fingerprints underneath and fitting it straight. Better to buy a heavy duty plastic type one and replace as and when needed. My preference is for matt.
I Would agree that a glass screen protector will not Place any added protection over a brand name heavy conventional screen protector. When you see these devices with a cracked screen . The cracks are always from the edge . Caused by the bezel hitting the screen. I would say as others Put a very thick screen protector and a rubber case on it.. I am using the amzer impact resistant case. It will help minor dings. but still not thick enough .. I been watching the bobjgear case site. i LIKE THE look of the round frame to protect the device..
The glass of each have the advantage of feeling like glass. They are also harder to dent and scratch that a film protector.

Spigen also makes a brand called GLAS.t that's tempered glass. Not sure if they have one for the Nexus 7
Thanks guys!
I don't see how a glass SP would solve anything outside a normal screen protector. I recommend a matte for its fingerprint resistance but sounds like you want a crystal transparent.
Gorilla glass aint all its cracked up to be. There isn't a big enough bevel on the N7 thus it'll sit taller then the rest. Sorta like a watch with a dome glass. It'll be more open to scratches and catch stuff for scratches and breakage.
Honestly I'd recommend one from SGP but not the glass. Theirs are much thicker then normal to provide more protection.
Do you think that if the gorilla glass breaks that it won't scratch your real screen with removal. I don't want to think of scrapping broken glass off my nexus. The impact alone would probably scratch up the actual screen or worse.
Grab yourself a TPU case and a quality SP from SGP and you'll be fine with the kids. My 5 year old has his own Galaxy 7 and beat it all up... but the device itself looks great.
I just don't see the benefit here. I also don't think anyone makes those for tablets... and if they did it would probably be costly.

Hi People !
I bought a great screen protector for my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. The link is here:
http://www.cellbeeusa.com/shop/sams...d-glass-0-3mm-thickness-2-5d-curved-edge.html
It's a tempered glass for the Edge and it is awesome.. Cellbee's tempered glass fits from edge to edge - which completely covers the phone. After a few days of testing it... the screen protector doesn't detach itself or comes off from the edges as most claim that their screen protectors after a few days come off around the edges. Now, I didn't drop test it and probably will not unless it happens accidentally, but from the material it really feels solid. Most people that also have this ( my friends ) claim that they are satisfied. If you are looking for a great tempered glass solution then go with CellBee... you will definitely be happy. Note: ITS NOT A GLASS, but very shock absorbent material
Here is the youtube video for installation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kazGyM3SLEA
Just my 2 cents
So they advertise it as glass but it isn't actually glass...
Confusing stuff!

It's not glass... it has a 9H+ hardness as glass but its made out of absorbent materials which protect your screen. Now, as I said, I am not willing to drop my phone to test it out.. but it is a soft material, but much thicker than PET films and really feels good in the hand. I am just stating my opinion on what I feel, and how it looks. If I do drop my phone accidentally than yea, I will report back here. I am waiting for a tempered glass solution but my friend google told me that it will be a long time before they come up with a tempered glass for the edge. The Note 4 Edge still doesn't have a tempered glass. So... better this than nothing. Of course there are other brands like Spigen, Verdus, etc.. but read bad reviews about it... the other good reviews are from Skinomi... which people like.. but I'll stick with this.
That was one of the crappies screen protectors I ever used. Stop using the term tempered glass to describe it.
There's already a thread with this. Apparent it's bad, chips/scratches easily even with your fingernail, not to mention it's not tempered glass.
False advertising and a bad screen protector.

Why is it crappy in your opinion ? Tempered glass - no... its not tempered glass.. but it has the hardness of a tempered glass 9H+. For me, I am using it mostly have my keys that are in my pocket with my Sammie and no scratches at all.

Installation Video
Material: "It is a thick plastic, custom fitted sheet that can mold itself around the edges."
Test Results: True
Dry apply plastic material that resembles self-healing nano-memory (similar to that of Zagg, Skinomi, and other wet apply screen protectors) but a little thicker, much more rigid, and less "rubbery" slicker surface feel.
Hardness: Claim of minimum "9H" scratch resistance
Test Results: FALSE!
In testing, scratches even from fingernail, even though goes away after a little while (similar to healing material).
Impact Resistance: Claim of "5 times the impact from 80 LBS hammer hits"
Test Results: Pending Testing

Interesting. Paid advertising? First it is tempered glass, but suddenly it isn't.
I've had this screen protector for since they started shipping in April. Currently looking to replace it. It is getting what I would call a little foggy and gets marks in it. The film seems soft under pressure. You can put a mark in it with your finger nail if you wanted.
At least on mine.
I'm not a fan.
I very well could be incorrect, but from what I understand, the tempered glass screen protectors are not able to produce a good product for this phone-- because each s6 edge is SLIGHTLY unique. With some of the plastic ones, there's some maneuverability, but not with glass.
Soft material? Is it also TPU? After trying some TPU's protectors, no good, too ruggy... no good on finger touching
Just found one with hard PET, anyone tried this item? Pls advise!

As with any phone, this is a pretty hot topic and I expect no less from this phone.
Please share your experiences with tempered glass screen protectors in this thread so they do not clutter the forum.
Coming from the Nexus 6, tempered glass screen protectors were a nightmare . the curved screen made them have a halo effect and caused proximity sensor issues. I'm hoping this phone is not going to be the same.
Personally I just ordered the Spigen glass.tr slim for my phone.. It can be found for 9.99 + free shipping on amazon currently. I will be reporting back with my review once I receive it and my phone.
I've had bad luck with the tempered glass protectors. On both my Nexus 5 and my Nikon DSLR, I've had the tempered glass break - no damage to the screens themselves, just broken screen protectors. No thanks.
I'd say they did their job then ... Seems they protected your phone from breakinh

Hello guys, in the past i bought the orzly tp v1 but i was really dissappointed from the quality, it was thick and spoiling the touch smoothness.
I decided to give a try to a normal screen protector that is thin and hard to notice. The only demand is that it covers the whole screen body (screen(edge 2 edge) + top/bottom black glass) and i prefer to not be liquid installed. Do you have something in mind that actually worth the money? Pictures if you have one installed are appreciated. Thank you in advance.

The orzly tempered is pretty bad but the normal one is good, it fit the screen well and it cover the top and the bottom, but the borders are not covered, just like the stock screen protector, and I don't think you will find any screen protector that cover the whole screen.
I am talking about this one : https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B01H7BTSM0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Supposedly the IQshield is the best for the OnePlus 3 period and covers the most of the screen without bubbles and the rainbow effectLook somewhere in the forums you'll find the thread. Wish I got one, my screen cracked because my screen protector didn't protect the whole surface of the glass.

I tried the Pleson, got a refund as it started pulling up from the screen. I've got the IQ Shield right now; smooth feel, doesn't slow down swiping on the screen very clear and transparent. I'd like to get a good TGSP, for shatter resistance.
I was thinking of just using a dbrand skin as a screen edge protector, because the edges are what take the most abuse.
On the pros it will look good if the right one is chosen and installed well. Might provide better shatter resistance than a thin plastic film on an edge impact. The thin film isn't designed to resist impact. I see it covers the edges quite well.
On the cons dbrand won't protect the whole screen. IQ requires a wet install, which makes me nervous.
I submit my thoughts to you for discussion. Thanks in advance.

Dbrand skins wont protect your phone much from drops, mostly from scratches and minor drops not involving cement/ceramic or any material harder than aluminum. All it took was 6 inches from a ceramic floor to shatter my screen with a screen protector and a dbrand skin

Yep. I don't see the point of mating it to that case.
I like the Bolt on my 10+
The sides allow access to the curve part but help prevent accidental touches and makes it easy to hold. It's a delicate balance.
Does a great job protecting it as well.

Not sure yet, I am using the Defender Pro Case with the WhiteStone Dome screen protector and the install did not go well for me, probably because the phone is so large... I had no issues with the WhiteStone Dome on my Note 8.
They are sending me a replacement screen protector, I can tell you it fits tight on the top and bottom. the curved sides are fine. Meaning that the Defender Pro case hits the top and bottom of the protector if it is not alined perfect.
I have the same case on my 20 and the fit is awesome thought it would be to big but it's not.

The same curse as the Note 10+ which cost me a lot of time to resolve.
You can try some teflon tape stretched down the sides just barely touching the screen protector to help it into the case and keep debris from marring the frame.
I rejected the damn Whitestone after I saw what a mess it was plus they sent the wrong protector in the right box. NOT impressed with their offshore junk and attitude.
A wet apply urethane screen protector is working very well in my case, the Gorilla IO Screen Protector.
The Bolt case is a tight fitting case as well.
The Whitestone would have been a tight fit at best. Just one little contact bump with the case would be a mess to redo; with a wet apply you can simple wet and push it back down.
Pros: easy to apply, wears fairly good, clear with a nice feel to it with excellent scratch protection and some impact protection. Can be pushed back down if it lifts.
Inexpensive. Bubble free.
Cons: less impact protection, need to let it set up overnight. Must be careful not to stretch it (or any) plastic film protectors as that will cause a failure.

LOL. There's no reason for a screen protector on the Note20. Modern glass has been extremely durable for years and this generation is leaps and bounds above the previous ones. I haven't used a screen protector since the S8+, and I haven't had so much as a tiny nick or scratch on any of my devices.

It rains mud here, literally sometimes if that tells you how dusty it can get.
Had a S4+ that had a heat damaged LCD.
For science, yes well, I took off the screen protector on it's Otterbox. The screen was spotless after 3 years.
Within a half year it had a couple scratches. I was reasonable careful with it.
The note Note 10+'s factory screen protector was scraped right on screen curve in the case the 2nd day I had by a drop out of my pocket onto a piece of aluminum angle. No damage.
