Hi,
thanks for the link. There don't seem to be many about on the internet, £10 seems like quite a lot for a screen protector unless its amazing.
I did see This one on amazon but again don't really know whats its going to be like...
Hey Guys. In my experience your gonna really want a full body protection with this nice watch.. Im in the US and ordered my R from Korea and they had it to me and cleared customs in 2 days. But the Skinomi full body kits are the best on the planet and you can get them in clear like the invisishields or in nice colors and textures like woodgrain and brushed metal and carbon fiber on amazon. Heres the link you will need. http://www.amazon.com/Skinomi®-TechSkin-Replacement-Definition-Anti-Bubble/dp/B00NAGSYQS
I've used the full body on a galaxy gear and a gear live and it is really nice to have bump protection on the whole watch and the under side covering protects the watch well and stops it from sliding on your wrist so much if you don't like to tighten your band really tight. And as a problem I had experienced with my gear live the charging pin connectors didn't like my body sweat too much and wanted to corrode and pit. If you can find some extra material in the kit I would suggest cutting a piece to fit over the charge pins while u wear the watch so sweat or oils won't have any chance to damage them. have fun I'm loving this LG.
I have to disagree on the Skinomi stuff.
I bought that for my original Moto 360 and ended up removing it. I just did not like the feel of it on the watch. It is pretty much like saran wrapping the watch.

yeah i like the idea of the kits but i think they look a bit ugly. i like protecting my stuff but i bought the watch for its looks and i dont want to hide it under a protector to have something perfect that i never get to see.
saying that i will be gutted if i chip the body!
i am worried about the face and how easily that might scratch

Meh, just standard things 101. Happened many times before. I don't think I'll have issues with that specific thing.
Plenty of screen protector options on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/search?ie=...=ur2&tag=soxpzulfa-20&linkId=E76F2GLYMQ6F7UJM
The carbon fibre skin looks interesting...
Anyone find a good screen protector yet? Right now I just took one of the extra ones I had for my M8 and cut out a circle of the appropriate size. It works alright except not all of the edges are tightly adhered, so it looks kind of bad.

I just bought Skinomi® TechSkin - LG G Watch R Screen Protector + Full Body Skin Protector
It should be here in a week... will post back my findings.. Note: not a prime eligible item =[
ArmorSuit MilitaryShield - No Go
I installed the ArmorSuit MilitaryShield screen protector for the G Watch R, and it is pretty disappointing. It is all hyped up and packaged as if it is premium, but the soft plastic cover is far from premium in application. There are a bunch of tiny pits and lines on my screen protector, and it looks like it doesn't belong. I might as well have left a piece of factory plastic on the screen. I even went as far as installing this in one of our clean rooms at work, and while there was no dust, there are still some odd artifacts that show up in the adhesive layer. I've had much better luck with the hard plastic-like screen protectors that don't require a wet application. I recommend you skip this particular brand.

I have used Skinomi before and they are wet application base, their product is grate...
At least to my experience.
Let the Armorsuit cure for about 24 hours after application and those imperfections smooth out.

I bought the "dipos LG G Watch R Screenprotector (2 Pieces) - Crystalclear from Amazon http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00NGP0EZM
And Iam happy with it
I've tried the Vikuti CV8. I was not able to fixate it and then properly swipe out bubbles. How did you guys do that?
Since I wasn't able to apply it without ugly bubbles and reflections both protectors are now in my trash can.
Has anyone found a tempered glass screenprotector for the g watch r?
If you see a cheap "XtremeGuard Screen Protector" one don't buy it. Has a rubber like feel to it when trying to swipe the screen.

I tossed it a week later, it never really settled out. It had too many imperfections that were visible at an angle. With the screen on, looking straight on to the watch, it looked perfectly fine, but when it was at an angle and light hit, you could see all the imperfections. It made the watch look cheap. Maybe I had a dud. The search continues....

Just heard back from MIME. -
Apologies for the delayed response, we expect to have our LG G2 glass live on our site next week.

I hope this one fits!
thanks for the heads up.
Here's the link: http://mimeusa.com/product/g2-ghost-glass-tempered-glass-screen-protector/
Looks pretty good, I assume it will cover the entire screen since they call it HDT-c (High Density Tempered Curved).

My assumption based on the page is that the edge is curved. Wouldn't put too much hope in full coverage.

Taking a second look at the site... you're right, it appears to be the edge only.
I guess it's impossible to have a well-fitted full coverage screen protector for our phones.

Also, I've already broken one G2 screen. I really don't want to drop it face down and break another, You guys think this screen protector will protect the screen from shattering from a drop at a reasonable height, like 4-5 feet from the ground?
tbh - it depends on where and what it falls on.

A new screen protector lol.
The thicker the better for drop protection, but personal I just use a good case
Yeah, I was about to say if they replaced the whole phone then I would buy the case right now. But, anyway, just an FYI for anyone, I used this case Diztronic Matte TPU and I dropped the phone from about 4 feet above the ground. The phone did land flat on it's face. The side of the case was also popped off on the bottom corner when I picked the phone up. The screen was shattered though, sharp glass was sticking out and the screen wasn't responsive.
Just letting everyone who has that TPU case know what happened to me and why I am looking into buying a 'hard' screen protector for my new G2 now.

Damn just bought this case to. I normally get case mate cases. But there's no one for the LG G2
I was wondering what you guys thought of the tempered glass screen protectors I have been using one since I purchased my phone and I like it but I bought a cheapie one on eBay (nothing wrong with eBay I'm just saying even for eBay it was a cheap one) and its not sticking on the edge. I paid a little more for my wife's GlasT on her IPhone 5S and its perfect. So basically I wanted know if you guys think something out there is better than the tempered glass screen protectors before I dish out the money on a better one. Or is anyone else using a tempered glass protector having the same problem with it not sealing all the way to the edge. A buddy of mine has an G2 as well of a different brand and hes said the same thing happened to his. It doesn't look terrible just a small area all the way around the screen where it's not making contact.

If you buy a decent screen protector you shouldn't have any problems. Just search Amazon for LG G2 protectors

UPDATE: I still have not experienced any edge-lifting. Note though, that i did NOT use the cleansing pad that they provided. I simply used alcohol and a cotton ball, no finger prints after cleaning whatsoever, then used the pink sticky film to remove all small particles from the cotton ball and any dust not seen by the nake eye.
But i will say though that the finger print resistance is almost non existant now. It really makes me appreciate how the stock glass is just that sweet. But all said and done, im satisfied to an extent.. if something comes out that is unanimously better than ill change.

How's that working out for you on the Flex? I was concerned that the screen on the Flex would be softer than a non flexible screen making it more probe to scratches and swirls.

Have you emailed any of the company's and asked if they're making a glass screen protector for the Flex? You could put the email in here maybe so we all can pester them. lol I've never had one but my friend loves them too.
I contacted Nilkin, a Japanese company who made one for the one max, but haven't heard back yet.
I am not sure that anyone can/will make one, since it might be really difficult to get glass to adhere to a curved screen..

Ok. That makes sense. lol Darn. Thanks
I think its still too early to assume there wont be any. What most of these accessory companies do now, is wait and see how popular a new phone becomes, before they bother to make anything for it.
Assuming this phone becomes really popular in the next month or so, I think there will be alot more "stuff" for it.
Its really only been out a month or so in the USA..
I'm kind of surprised what's out in stores already. I remember some stores wouldn't get cases for a month after the phone was out.
I got a Skinomi screen guard from Amazon. It Is the nicest protector I've ever used (and I've tried a lot of them). Crystal clear and virtually no orange peel effect. I paid like $5 plus $4 shipping which was super fast. I'm sorry, but i don't have a link. Just Google it. Should pretty easy to find.

I only bought the screen protector as I'm using a case. I can definitely believe that the corners would peel up on a full body protector. I've experienced that every time I ever used one of those. It was fairly easy to install but try do it somewhere where there's no dust as these are very staticy and instantly attract dust, pet hair, etc. ( I put mine on in the bathroom ) Skinomi's website had a link for a YouTube video with installation instructions.

these are vinyl, not glass..
Hoping ZAGG comes out with one but I doubt it. Their glass ones for the iPhone and S4 are flexible so they wouldn't be out of the question for the flex. Really easy to put on too as I've done a bunch for customers

I'd ordered the Phone on the launch day, hence I got the Original Motorola Flip Cover with 50% discount (i.e. 850/-)
I must say, quality of the cover is excellent.
The back is matte finished with a very premium look, it also protects the camera lens nicely by adding a little bump to it.
The case has magnets into it and it snaps to the phone nicely.
Ohh....the flip cover also wakes the device automatically when opened and also locks the device when closed.
If you can also get it for 850, I'm sure you won't regret buying it.
About the matte scratchguard, I actually bought one from eBay but haven't used it because the cut outs looks a little off...
Hope it helps other buyers....
Btw, if someone finds a perfect fit scratch guard, please share the link etc here...

I bought this case from amazon - http://www.amazon.in/Heartly-Spider...F8&qid=1417076843&sr=8-1&keywords=moto+g+kick
Although it is bulky but the black part can be de-attached if you want a less bulky look. It will also protect Moto G's fragile display (prone to damages even with minor falls) from damage to a great extent. I bought the white colored case and it looks great. Many of my friends liked the case's unique look (even I took off the black layer).
About the screen protector, I bought a total care screen protector from a local shop for 150/-
It's great and I use the 'total care' screen protectors on almost all my devices. I can say that the quality is great.
If you decide to buy gadgetshieldz, use promocode 'adw20' for discount.

I was using a Matte screen guard before changing to Nillkin, The matte one definitely reduced a lot of glare but also hampered the brightness and crispiness.
Nillkin looks like stock glass screen with additional protection.

When I bought my turbo in October or November, I also bought the "flexible glass screen protector for droid turbo" at the Verizon store. It is a little pricey at about $25, but I really like it. They had to order it for me and it was delivered straight to me.
For what it cost, I took it to them and had one of their employees put the screen on for me. I think he did a pretty nice job of it. I have no complaints, other than the high price. ?
As far as I can tell, it has no scratches on it, but, I try not to treat it rough. Also, it is very hard to see any smudges, etc that I get on it.
It did take me a little while to get used to its edges. If you swipe from the very edge of the phone, you can feel the edge. It kind of catches your finger. I have had no problems using it. At the same time I also bought the "Speck" case from them. I like it as well, but, it is also pricey.
Before this, I always used their belt clip. I do miss that, and, "may" one of these days replace the Speck with it. But, I think the glass screen is so much better than the plastic ones.
I would buy the glass screen again. (my opinion only)

I just received this one today.
Its not bad for the price.
I was just going to start a thread with the glass screen protectors that I've tried and whether it works or not. but just an fyi, I've used the ez guardz, they admitted to their current model having a design flaw; the edges of the screen protector doesn't adhere. Also the Ghostek I just received today has the same issue. There's one more I'm looking at on eBay and I'm going to stay away from the "flexible screen protectors" as those are the ones made by tech21 and I don't like the feel of them.
Sorry. Wrong thread.

Looks like film, I have their screen protector for my moto 360, first batch was over sized, they then sent me the replacements which were a lot better. I may end up going with tempered glass as well for to 360 but at the time none were available but the film ones, except the Spigen which chipped. I'm not too confident with the ones that are available now.

I know that it's a film protector & not tempered glass. I was wondering if anyone had any luck with it. I was also looking at the iVoler tempered glass sold on Amazon
The iVoler is great, with a few minor caveats:
• Follow instructions to the letter, making sure the screen is immaculately clean. Also, wear rubber gloves if possible. Even a minor trace of skin oils will result in spots that refuse to adhere, so be super careful.
• This particular item ships from Shengzhen, China, and takes about three weeks. Order a spare while you're ordering and waiting so ridiculously long for the item to arrive.
Aside from that, it seems to be just the ticket... It's coated, so it feels slick, stays clean and doesn't show fingerprints.
This company finally has one out, I have it on order today.

reporting back from my last purchase.
Tried this TEMPERED GLASS Screen Protector - Slim 0.33mm Super Hardness - Crystal Clear by COVRWARE - picked it up from amazon for $9.97
The glass itself is nice. It feels like the naked screen. It's a 9H and oleophobic. Unforunately the edge adhesive halos. It's cut slightly short of the edges to in an attempt to deal with the 2.5D screen edges.
you don't notice when the screen is on, but yeah it's not a edge to edge performing adhesive. so i've left it on, as i look for a better screen protector.
i'd love to see how that mime screen protector does.

Let me know if the edges stick that's really the only issue with most of them on the market right now. I don't even want to show my phone to others because of the parts of the screen protector that doesn't adhere. Waiting on a replacement for my ghostek, if that's the same then I'm off to trying a different one.
The edges on mine are all good, with the exception of two spots where my fingers made contact with the adhesive. My hands were clean and dry, but it apparently doesn't take much to impact the performance of the adhesive. I'd recommend wearing rubber gloves during application... Other than that, it's a great fit, and covers only the flat (non-rounded) surface of the screen.
Ok got the MIME today, typical package and install. Goes on good does not go the the edge but about like the xtreme one I had installed. This one sticks so far and feels way better slickness wise than the xtreme.

Interesting there's no cut out for the proximity sensor. Have you had any issues during phone calls? Make a phone call, and hold the phone away from your face. Does the screen still go on?
