once you use it "naked", you will never go back. tablet's screen is not easy to scratch like a phone's since we don't slide it in and out the pocket regularly

If I was the only one using it I would but I have a 11 year old that loves fruit ninja and cut the rope and LOVES her long nails. i know that the screen will be able to withstand it but I don't want to take that chance.
well i use screen protector on my mobile but not in my tablet reason is that it does not get mixed with keys coins etc so no harm ,also the new coatings of screen are scratch resistant,thats my 2cents
Spigen makes one of the best protectors i'v ever used. Very smooth and clear

is available for preorder.
Having had an extremely positive experience with a Skinomi protector that I installed on my wife's Kindle Fire HD, I ordered one for the Nexus 10.

for the same price as that, you can get a front AND back from best skins ever.
PLEASE, no one mention garbage like zagg. thanks..
Just an FYI, Amazon has that same ArmorSuit for a few bucks less
In my experience, they always make the screen look awful. It's made of gorrilla glass anyway, thats the point is that you shouldn't need to use a screen protector.
As Dja357 said, it's made of gorilla glass. No screen protector needed.
I ordered some $5 protectors off ebay for mine.. i mainly like them for anti-glare.. BUT it does just destroy picture quality
As for scratches.. my fire's protector has a huge gouge across it. and no idea how it got there was worth the money to protect it
The screen quality does go down a bit with some protectors, but they help with glare and make it easier to clean too. I'm going to wait and see what type of case I end up finding before I decide on a protector though, its slim pickings right now
I'm more concerned of the back. But back protector is ridiculously overpriced right now
Sent from my beloved home phone.
Call me a crazy noob but I just took some scissors and snipped off the tab for removing the protector that came on the nexus 10. I left the original screen protector in place. It fits perfectly, there are no bubbles, no trapped fibers it is the best installed screen protector I've ever had. I will admit it is not quite as smooth as the exposed gorilla glass around the front camera and sensor but it is close and I have the piece of mind that should any horrible accident (or even a minor one) befall my tablet, I know that I can always rip off this screen protector to see a perfect piece of glass, untouched by human hands, beneath. Having a screen protector, for me, is mostly psychological.

Plus 1......whenever a bubble appears I just slide it off with my finger easier than any paid protectors. No dirt/lint on corners. Screen quality is beautiful even with it on so I can't imagine with it off. I'm sticking with this original until a smart cover with glowing reviews come out...

I can vouch for that... Had it on my iPad screens because believe it or not iPad screens skratch with NOTHING so I learnt my lesson and put protectors on. I had Spigen protector and even though they are pricey NO BODY including myself ever noticed there was a protector on top of the screen.

I have a spigen on my galaxy note, I'm gonna get a n10 soon and definitely will buy one for it , and with two kids a screen protector is a no brainer, you can't tell the difference with the spigen on it. Is an awesome screen protector.

I always get a case and screen protector for my phones / tablets. Didn't have much of a choice with the Nexus 10 and I am really enjoying the feel of the device more than any other device I've owned.
+1 naked :good:
Hello people,
i am looking for a glass screenprotector with a colour (yellow?) But I cannot find any. All the items I see on ebay are either sold out or do not have the yellow colour
I would recommend staying away from the coloured glass protectors as they have not been given stellar reviews here on XDA. Most of the time it's the fact that the SPen doesn't work right or fitment, etc.
I think the company is called XGear.
XGear review link here
I can't find the site anymore but you can get them off ebay. There are a few distributors out of China that make what you're looking for but I would avoid them as I haven't read anything good about them.
I have one of those glass ones off of eBay, mine is black. I have a link in the screen protector reviews thread. Ive had it for a week and I have no issues with sensitivity or the s pen. However, the black around the edges is glittery, so its kind of a girly SP. Quality is there though.
One big deal though, the SP goes all the way to the edge. So your cases you may have may not work with it. I'm currently using a casemate tough case, but I can confirm both otter boxes, and the protective cover+ DO work with it. But your basic TPU cases will not.

s pen is generally not affected by screen protectors. bring your s pen close to the screen, press down on the nib and move it around and you can draw without the s pen even touching the screen.
+1 for the 'Bulletproof" (Glasszone) SP
I've had two of these protects for two seperate phones and they are outstanding. I'm not sure where everyone is getting this speculation that glass screen protectors (particular the ones with colour outside the screen) affect the spen or touch sensitivity. It works PERFECTLY FINE. And it is the best likeness you will get to your bare naked screen. I will never go back to a none-glass screen protector. I bought this one:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/New-BULLETPR...var&hash=item3cccacdff8&_uhb=1#ht_12820wt_958
Which is essentially the same as this one that was posted earlier except different pricing/seller:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Galaxy-Note-...ar&hash=item23268cf7c6&_uhb=1#ht_10679wt_1163
Go for it, you won't regret it. Just a heads up though the screen protector does go all the way to the edge of your screen, but I haven't had any problems with my Incipio Dual Pro Shine case or my Seido Active. Also, your home button will be recessed since the glass is thicker, but you can easily buy a home button sticker on ebay (which IMO makes your phone look so much more bada**). I've yet to receive my Urban Armour Case so I can't say if it will fit on that. I'm sure it will though.

This I know, I just remember reading a few posts on the forums where people were having issues with some of the first Glass SP's. I'm using the MimeUSA one right now and came from a JLG that died recently. the XGEAR GSP or one of the other ones had some issues like fitment and general SPen problems. I'm sure they are fixed now though. Didn't want another user here to get steered towards a sub par product.
This is the protector I have.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/28103026339...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
Best protector I've ever had on a phone. Solid black color with no glitter. Adhesive on the entire protector. Covers entire glass. I have a white note 2 but you can't tell at all.
Anybody know of a seller that has red colored ones in stock? (Reputable seller, of course.) That would make my Note 2 perfect!

Well, the one I got from MIME does not totally cover the screen either, but this one is 1/2 price. In addition, I don't like color edges because I want it 100% clear.
I got one from x gear a few days ago. I think it was called voyager 2. its white. Works great.

The reason why MIME one doesn't cover the whole screen is because they counted in that you will be using a body cover. So they wanted to make sure this wasn't a issue.

It's worse than what you said. It's like "lifting" because the edges (including home button) do not totally stick on the screen and leave air space around the screen protector.
I don't know whether mine is defective or something.

I have a friend who has the mime and he has issues with the defender case peeling up the sides. If its an adhesion problem, let them know. I'd think if you can show them pictures that they'll send you out a new one. Most of the "non zagg" companies try to provide the best customer service possible.
On another note, does the voyager 2 have glitter on the black? I'm seriously considering buying it because I'm tired of the glitter on my eBay one

I would say the type of adhesive MIME uses on the glass could a little more sticker. But then of course that could probably cause some issues. Also I noticed on some areas that the glue doesn't quite go to the edge of the glass.

I am really hoping I received a defective batch! I see the ISMOOTH has some good reviews and I have no idea why? I even went back to the box and made sure my ismooth was made for the note 2 cause I thought it was an error and meant for the note 1. Attached are some pics. As you can see it does not come close to edge to edge coverage. Or top to bottom for that matter...
There supposed to be like that cause of the curved screen on the note.

It looks like ir protects the screen just not the entire front. The reason its uneven on home button is from lookin at the 2 pics that shiw it on each side of screen. The protector was applied uneven. Its to far to the left

You're joking, right? Only a very select few screen protectors cover to the edge of the Note II. This is because of the curved glass on the Note II; the edges of the screen protector would never adhere to the curved part, and you'd be replacing them in a matter of days because they'd peeled up.
Please read at the least pinned screen protector review thread, which mentions this several times, before slamming a screen protector with a ridiculous complaint based upon your not reading.
*Edit: And based upon your asymmetric installation.

I am not joking at all! My ismooth is nothing like the one in the installation video. Mine did not have the greenish cover to make sure it alligns properly. Yes, my ismooth is installed a little to the left but that still doesnt come near the left edge. I am coming from a tech armor which covers the whole screen
The ones with the greenish cover are the bad ones. You want the newer ones with no green cover.

My ismooth was a top install and not a bottom istall like the video. If it was too far to the left then this top would look horrible!

Then why post if you deny the replies. The curved glad part will make your screen protector peel if it stretches across the whole glass. Not to mention if you use a case those will peel it off if you use a good case.

And those are all non traditional (peel and stick) installs. Plus, the s-pen literally annihilates those. I got a Zagg HD when I got this phone. It was so marred in 3 weeks that the Zagg kiosk that I bought it from let me flat out return it!
Sure, these don't go to the edge of the screen.If you want one that does, search for the Voyager 2 by xgear. After shipping its around $40 but it looks awesome. I have a Chinese knockoff that works great too, but the black has glitter which is very annoying so it is not on my phone right now.
Out of dry, traditional installs, iSmooth is the best bang for your buck. Quality of SGP ultra crystal (or at least the next best thing to it), the rainbow effect isn't too bad on it since its a horizontal rainbow throughout, and it has a lifetime warranty even if you screw up the install.

You see, the Note 2 (and*Galaxy S3) phones are very difficult when it comes to Screen Protectors. As you probably know, the very edges of these Samsung phones are curved and due to the curve,*it creates issues with "lifting." *Not on all the phones, just a small percentage of them (~%5).
I am looking forward to receiving these that cover the whole screen.

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

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 am looking for a screen protector for my BN Turbo. I would prefer a tempered glass solution but am willing to explore other options. Does anyone have one or can offer suggestions for one? Thanks

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.

Thanks for the info. I have read the same thing on most of the screen protector Amazon reviews. Everything from improper fit, to breakage, yellowing, dimples & valleys......
I have considered this non-tempered protector: http://www.amazon.com/Skinomi®-Tech...421509415&sr=8-1&keywords=skinomi+droid+turbo Does anyone have any experience with these?
I also sent an email to MIMEUSA because they show link for Turbo products on their site but when clicking on it nothing happens. I will post updates as soon as I hear anything from them

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?
