I'm looking for a screen protector that only has the cut out for the front camera. I find it unnecessary that there cut outs for the proximity sensor. on a lot of screen protectors I have seen. Anyone have any recommendations?

This one seems to have a cutout only for the camera, and a 2.5d edge to fit the our 2.5d glass. Someone else in the screen protector thread recommended it, so I just ordered it last night. I'll let you know how it works out.

Great. I might consider it. I was actually hoping to find a plastic screen protector.
Someone said in their review that the glass screen protector cut out isn't as pictured.
The only problem is the protector I received was not the same as pictured. The top of the protector was not cut as pictured. instead of having a small cutout in the center for the cameral lens, there was a larger cutout of 5/8ths of an inch starting just right of the lens going left. Therefore the lens is not covered, but there is an odd unprotected gap at the top of the protector.

Please let us know how the glass screen protector is for you. I've used one once, and it was really nice to have that sort of quality, but it started to peel off after about two months of usage. Maybe that's normal, though. Idk...

Anyone seen this yet?

I am very happy to see Glass protectors finally for our Edge but disappointed that they are colored now instead of fully clear.....Wouldnt that make the capacitive buttons look recessed or sunken in now? I just don't like the idea, kind of like adding depth to the buttons...
Skinomi Tech Glass
thanks for the post I was on that page just a couple of days ago and that option wasn't there yet. Seems interesting as most full edge covered tempered glass screen protectors are black and that one seems to actually be blue like the phone is. Also about the clear/coloured the reason is the adhesive used would show at the top and bottom so I personally don't mind it being coloured as long as it matches the original colour. It seems it's the only way to achieve full coverage and not lose
the glow from the capacitive buttons by adding the cut out as it is 0.33mm glass. I think it'll still make the phone look amazing and definitely want to give it the best yet still slim protection and this seems like it'll be for now so I decided to order it even though it won't ship until around July 17th.
would it fully cover the phone screen?
I have one. I dont mind it but it doesnt cover the full front of phone. Doesnt interfere with viewing really but the only thing i don't like is the cut for the top spots is off slightly
looks like a gen 2 protector
i don't have any experience with this particularly product but let me tell you this is not a GLASS protector but a FILM protector like INVISIBLE SHIELD or BODYGUARDZ, so take that in mind before buying

How is the touch sensitivity? Especially around the edges?
Good! Thanks!
I got mine yeterday and sensitivity sucks on the left side. I'm off by tiny bit hen installing it and that could be the reason but who knows. I did post a picture in the Skinomi review thread in here if you want to take a look. Not sure if I have gen 2 or 3 but it does look great. Too bad for my left side sensitivity issue. Slightly getting better so there is some hope. Guess I'll give it a few more days.
EDIT: after re-aligning the glass, I don't have sensitivity issues on the left hand side anymore.

Skinomi Tech Glass screen protector for the Samsung Galaxy S6 is perfect. It does not cause any touch nor tactile sensitivity at all though I knew some did experienced touch sensitivity especially on the sides. what works is aligning the shield to the center.. really it works great as those expensive brands.. worth a try!
oh great
Any pictures of the gold?

Hello,
I have a new Nexus6 phone with me. There is a thin film on the top of the amoled screen, with a white mark on the left bottom side of the screen. I didn't remove it during unboxing. Is that a screen guard provided by the manufacturer, which I can use for the entire lifetime of the phone ? Or is it just for safety until the device reaches the user ?
Thanks.

okay, It was not very thin. Looks like a screen guard. So I thought it was a screen guard.
I will remove it and thinking of putting a 3M Screen Guard for my phone.

That's screen peel stick, just for ordinary protection only, it's different from the screen protector, you can buy one here: http://www.etradesupply.com/motorola-nexus-6-tempered-glass-screen-protector.html

Tempered glass is far superior. Most cases of dropping, the protector will break before the device glass. They also last much longer.

If you can't find it, then probably not. Also, try to chose one that doesn't cover the proximity sensor. It has been known to cause issues if proximity sensor is covered.

Yes, the tempered glass screen protector is thicker (generally 0.30mm), sturdier and more expensive than an ordinary one.
If you're considering a tempered glass protector, read the last several pages of this thread. The Nexus 6's glass is slightly curved at the edges and this causes problems with many of the protectors that are available. I'm using a Skinomi TechSkin, wet application film protector and it's been excellent, but as others have said, tempered glass will give you more protection from drops.

You might be talking about the halo-ing effect at the edges. Yes, as the edges of Nexus6 are curved, protectors that are thicker tend to have the halo effect. I am going to use a pouch for my nexus like the following one. I think that will give a protection from the drops. So I think the film protector is enough, instead of making the phone look ugly.

I got the sgp crystal. Been using steinheil protectors since my gnex and I like them a lot. Fits perfect and feels good. No cutout for the proximity sensor, but no issues caused by it in my use. I'd definitely recommend it.

I'm using a free screen protector which came with Ringke Slim case. So, I believe this screen protector is Ringke Invisible Defender PET. I actually love this. It's smooth and clear. I didn't have any troubles to install. I used the hinge method and worked great.
I'm using this just for a week. So, I don't know how long it lasts but... so far so good

I have this one too, I bought a 3-pack after having used a Rearth/Ringke film protector on my Galaxy S3 for years. It does have the cutout for the proximity sensor, whether that affects the sensor or not it speaks to their attention to detail I think. Anyway, so far so good. It was easy to apply with no bubbles and the edges haven't peeled up.
Just got the Ringke one yesterday also and it looks great and has cut out for the grills, camera, and proximity sensor.
I originally bought "6-Pack Ultra Clear HD XtremeGuard HI-DEF Screen Protector Cover For LG Nexus 5X," but those were cut terribly, i.e., edges were not straight and the edges would not stay down, so bought the Ringke ones. Seems to be working great.
I haven't used PET film protectors in awhile, but back when I did, I found Martin Fields to consistently be the best. They're pricey, but worth it.
Does the proximity sensor cutout matter for PET films too or is it only a tempered glass problem?
Thought of going Martin Fields but it seems like there might be no cutout:

I do have one PET film I bought for fifty cents on hand now though.

That's a good question, and I wish that I had an answer for you. I haven't used PET film in a few years. I'd recommend emailing them. Back when I used them, they were very responsive to email inquiries.
EDIT: Poster above states his PET film had no cutout for proximity sensor, with no issues (different brand).

I emailed and seems like there hasn't been any complains.
Martin Fields is expensive but it has that extra camera lens protector piece.
Though after 2 years the piece on my Nexus 5 screen has some dot marks like sand grains imprints and minor scratches on it.
Hey guys just wanted to give a heads up about the oneplus official tempered glass screen protector.
I don't know if others are as irritated by it but the screen protector stops short of covering the screen on all sides. I mean its so bad that the edge runs across the screen viewing surface on both sides. I did put in a complaint, maybe they will resolve it. I did order a Orzrly screen protector but canada post is on strike so I'm stuck with this irritating screen protector for a while. I don't seem to be allowed to link to pictures though.

Yeah i am. It creates massive problems while tapping on any options near those edges while gaming. Horrible.
@andrewrcatton, some gap around protector is not a quality issue rather it is a intentional decision on OP side.The reason is op3 has side curves

So they intentionally decided to have a 5mm(guessing) gapp all around from the edges? That's stupid. I Under stand how the screen on my device curves but the edges of this protector is far from the edges, with it centered its 4-5mm from the edge of the viewable screen so you see a line down the right and left sides. Ill post pics when im allowed to.

Yes it is really a stupid decision of OP to such **** protector.
Don't buy these protectors instead use 3rd party full coverage one
Having the same problem, it looks awful. How did you raise the complaint with one plus? I can't even find an option to do so....
I have tried many and finally found one that actually fits. Until now the best one I have seen is the non glass protector made by Skinobi (for those that like plastic ones use it). However in the glass department they all sucked. The Qoosea one fit but it's about as cheap as you can get construction wise. It's curved but it only has a small amount of basic adhesive along the edges. So basically pocket lint can get under the screen and get stuck there. Also since it doesn't fully sit on the screen sometimes using the screen itself can be a hassle due to poor touch detection. Well all I can say is thank god Top Ace came out with one recently and actually got it right.
It's curved glass, plenty of adhesive on the side that counts and by god it actually fits perfectly. Things line up where they are supposed too. Anyway figured this deserved it's own post since finding a glass protector for this phone can be a pita at times due to the curved edges. Posted a link below, hope it helps. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M3MZQTK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I got mine yesterday and I can confirm that yes, this one actually fits great. I bought 2 in case they don't make them anymore when the first one eventually breaks.
From the pictures and one of the latest reviews it looks like this screen protector covers up the light sensor. Are there any completely clear screen protectors that fully covers the front?
Just read one of the comment said it covers the sensor that the phone is unable to turn on the screen automatically during a call when you put it away from your face. Anyone can confirm it?
I bought one on Ebay and it arrived and had curvy edges, but the idiots had sent me one for the full-size Xperia X even though it was in a packet marked X Compact. Way too big. Now I have to fight for a refund.

Mine had the sensor cut out and everything was right where it was supposed to be. Maybe he got the wrong one not sure. I went with the black one and it was fine.

Anyone know of a UK source for these or a seller who will post to the UK on Ebay/Aliexpress etc?
I too bought one that only sticks to the edge of the phone and it's already got a piece of dust underneath it! I love being able to swipe from the edge with the curved edges and I love the longevity of glass screen protectors, but it's horrible to use as it's just floating a bit off the surface of the phone and makes a click noise/feel when I tap. I asked a load of Ebay sellers and they all said their glass curved screen protectors only stick around the edge of the phone.
Thanks.
Hi,
I found this one on Devilscase when I checked the Aluminium bumber.
http://www.twdevilcase.com/en/index.php?menu=prod_detail&mid=21&did=7&pid=5258&list=class It's curved and seems to have the adhesive on the full screen (except the edges).
Did anyone tried it already out?

Based on them saying all over the website "Please be noted the adhesive is visible on the edge of CURVED Glass Protector" I imagine these ones only have glue on the edges too.
If anyone is wondering, I've attached a photo of what happens if you use a generic glass Ebay curved screen protector that only has glue on the very edges for a fortnight! Lots of dust has crept in through the speaker holes etc - the white dots showing are all dust UNDER the screen protector. I'm going to buy a plastic one that will stick properly.
I bought this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N8XMXGB
Seems like it just ran out of stock though.
edit: I asked the seller and they said they will not restock it, so I guess this will be the last time you'll see it.

I did. I paired it with the aluminum bumper and while the bumper is top quality as usual with devilcase products, I can't say the same for the screen protector.
The screen protector does fit perfectly but it collects dust behind it after few weeks and the responsiveness and consistency of the touchscreen are compromised.
I've been looking for an alternative to buy in Europe but found none. Topace is not an option as is in stock only on Amazon USA. If anyone has suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.

I had the same problem and got refunded. Ordered from different seller and got the correct sized one. The item itself is bad. It feels plastic, touch is not always responsive and swipe gesture for opening menu drawer is hard. I need to really press the edge before doing the slide. Screen feel more distance and it feels there are separation between the protector and the screen.
I replaced it with a generic plastic screen protector which actually feels better, easier to make slide gesture, seems more seamless. The ebay curved screen protector is really that bad. I am going to keep using the plastic one and cut a new one to fit it more properly. I also need to check how to prevent it is being lifted up accidentally from the dangling side. I can stand the dust on the dangling side, but i hate when it is lifted up and the lint is actually below the screen protector.
My experience
This is the reference for my second e-bay cover it does not have dust and has lasted much longer than my first that did.
My recollection is that there is adhesive everywhere.

No. You are wrong. I bought one based on your recommendation and it's just another rubbish one that only only has glue in thin strip round the edges that will allow dust to creep in the speaker/camera holes and scratch the screen. More negative feedback to leave!
Why do not manufacturers produce a curved screen protector that's made properly!?! The glue can't be that expensive! [emoji36]
