Nexus S Screen Protectors

Does anyone know of a reputable and cheap seller of screen protectors for Nexus S i9020, in the UK? I am suspicious of eBay results but perhaps I should not? Links/Names would be appreciated.

I suggest eBay. Got mine, an XtremeGuard protector which is a vinyl type protector (from user xtreme_guard). First one I got was damaged during shipping, too much weight was put onto the envelope containing it and it got marked by the application tool and he sent me another one free of charge. Best protector I ever bought and definitely a good ebay experience.

Lol I used to use a screen protector then I took it off because the two end wouldn't fit properly since the nexus has a curved screen but so far no scratches I actually had scratches on my screen protector :banghead:

I've had my phone for over a year...and I'm rough on it. It's always in my pocket everywhere I go, and I work at construction sites at least two days a week. After 14 months of owning it I have only gotten one tiny, barely noticeable scratch on the screen.
Don't waste your money...screen protectors aren't necessary with gorilla glass

Have faith. There are no scratches. Gorilla glass isn't the only sturdy/scratch-resistant glass in the world.

I was under the same impression when I bought the phone too.
Gorilla glass or not though, the biggest screen scratcher isn't rusty nails or whatever gimmicky thing they show you in the phone screen protector ads but rather pocket sand. Any sand you have in your pockets will DESTROY the phone over time. I've seen some phones become completely hazy, including ones equipped with Gorilla glass from people working more physical jobs.
Mine has a protector, but it's for the OCD rather than anything else. As long as you put your phone in a pocket of it's own, empty of any debris, and you don't rub it face first on a table, it should be fine.

[Q] Tempered glass screen protector?

I know that the phone is fairly new, but does anyone know of available tempered glass screen protectors for the Droid Turbo other than the Verizon brand? Is there an ETA for anything so far? I usually just order through Amazon, but haven't seen anything that was noteworthy yet.

There are some difficulties in making a glass screen protector for the turbo's screen because of the curved glass edges. The issue is that the screen protector naturally wants to pull away to a flat like state. Because of this, you see very few companies offer tempered glass protectors for devices with the curved glass edges, and most people report a poor experience with them, as the edges release from the glass, thus making it easy for the screen protector to get pulled off.
A few solutions that have been tried are the company making the protector a bit smaller than the screen, to avoid the curved edge, but then you don't get full coverage, and have a sharp / noticeable edge from the screen protector. The other solution is to make it thinner / more pliable, but that raises its own issues (cost, loss of protective qualities).
I know Zagg is working hard on developing a tempered glass screen protector that will work with the curved glass screens, thanks to the iPhone 6 plus having this type of screen, but it could be awhile before they release it, let alone it trickles down to other devices. Once they figure it out, though, it should spread to other protectors (given most off brand protectors are made by one of the Chinese manufacturers of Zagg, just rebranding them, and likely lowering quality control a bit).

Okay, so I found 2 new entries on Amazon for the glass protectors. One is the Casebase brand and the other is the Orzly brand. The Casebase comes with 2 protectors and seems to have a better fit for the front-facing camera. I would post the links, but I'm a newbie so I can't yet. Lmk what you guys think about them.

Verizon has the tempered glass in their stores, I bought mine when I received the phone 2-3 days into the launch!

Looks like these are the thicker 9h ones with rounded edges too and the prices are rather cheap. I going to give it a few weeks until the crappy verizon tempered glass starts lifting then give one of these a shot. Thanks for posting!

I used a 85% off today. I can't remember what exactly it was but I just did a google search for coupon code.

I'm going to go ahead and try out the Xtremeguard Spartan tempered glass screen protector. I wish there was a 90% off coupon, but I settled with the 80% since I've been waiting on a decent glass protector for awhile now. I'll let you guys know how it is once I put it on, but I don't know if my opinion would be all that valid since this will be my first glass protector.

The Zagg glass for the iPhone 6, 6 plus, and Note 4 with curved screens are already available and work perfectly. I would say the fact that it isn't currently available for the Turbo has more to do with it being a Verizon exclusive than anything else.

I just looked up the one for the six and six plus. What are they doing that's different from anyone else? Its just smaller then they call it case friendly lol I expected some new technology on the curve I guess. The only solution I've ever seen for tempered glass on a curved screen as they just make it smaller so it doesn't reach the curve.

It isn't really noticeable while just looking at the product, but the Zagg's now have a curvature equal to that of the curve of the screen. The first wave of Zagg Glass panels for the 6, 6+, and Note 4 were all defective. They peeled up at the edges and would never lay down completely flat (I work for Best Buy I install 30-50 of them a week.) The second round of shipments had ironed out whatever kinks were causing the imperfect fit.

I'm confused as to why you would want a screen protector on a Gorilla Glass screen with a free replacement warranty? Is there something I'm missing, or is there something else special about these tempered glass screen protectors?
As for me, I've never broken or even scratched a screen in the last 10 years. Guess I'm lucky.

I used to be one of those people too. I had never cracked a screen in my life because I always take care of my phone, but it all changed when it happened to my HTC One. Accidents happen and I'd rather lose a screen protector than have to use that free screen replacement. I think 10 bucks is a reasonable price to spend to protect a $600-700 phone, especially when i plan on keeping it for the foreseeable future. I still don't completely understand using bulky cases, but that's probably because I baby my phone.

Spartan glass received today - put it on and took it off - the curved glass edges do not stick and looks terrible - asking for refund

I have never carried a screen protector on my phone previously either as I felt the quality was utter **** on them and I won't look at one with bubbles and crap in it.
The tempered glass ones don't peel up or bubble (when they are not defective and are installed correctly.) They are PERFECTLY clear, don't obscure the screen at all, and they feel just like touching the actual screen. I truly consider them to be poor man's insurance.

Gotcha. Thanks

It look like the same thing and same price. Any chance of some close up pictures of the finish on the sides and corners please? How you like it so far, transparency, texture, fingerprint,..... any negatives? Your feedback will be most appreciated, thank you.

I have had that product on earlier phones, and to be honest, it has a funny texture to it, and it is nowhere near as good as a tempered glass screen protector. After going to glass , there is no going back to plastic on screen protectors. I have the pleson tempered glass protector for my OP 3 and it is great. Get that one, you won't regret it at all.

Couldn't agree more. "Funny texture" is really a nice way to describe the rubber feeling of the protector. With my personal experience I would say it's rubbish and not worth the money ... not worth any money ... only my personal opinion.

I love glass too, have used it on several phones now and there is no beating the glass protectors except for the stock unprotected screen. There were numerous let downs on the OP3 version of the tempered glass protectors, mainly due to OP3's slightly curved 2.5D edge, its near impossible to get full coverage without some kind of compromise.
How funny is the texture? Is it like clingfilm; transparent and flexible but not smooth glide like glass?

The pleson tempered glass doesn't go to the extreme edge of the glass, but I have no issues with it, and combined with a good protective case you won't notice at all. better to be protected instead of worrying too much about aesthetics

Current case and screen protection

I was going through this thread to see what screen protectors and cases you all people use as a kind of recommendation for my next case and screen protector. But all you people are scattered in different posts discussing things.
So lets make things easy for everyone.
Post your current setup (the past one as well if you want) and your view about that. And the links and some photos would be loved for sure. :good:
.

And a thanks if this thread helps you get a case or skin or screen protector in future :laugh:

Am myself using Bracevor wallet cover with the the stock screen film. No skin whatsoever. (planning to change this all soon)
Amazon India: http://www.amazon.in/Bracevor-BROPL3ELLCBR-Premium-Leather-Cover/dp/B0157OUT7C

The oem carbon fiber case paired with the oem curved screen protector is absolutely perfect. Can't even feel the seam between the glass and case. I hate cases in general, but I adore this setup.

Using the orzly multifunction wallet with the official tgsp.
Works a treat.

Sandstone case and nude screen. Can't stand screen protectors

Using the OtterBox case from OnePlus with the official curved tempered glass protector. I love the case, but I botched the TGSP installation, so I'll probably end up ordering a new one.

How's the day to day usage with bumper case? Is it worth the money? Any comparison with other cases you have used?

The main reason for getting the case was to showcase the metal back of the op3. And it does that beautifully.
The quality is great, however its a bit loose on the sides (by no means it will pop out, needs considerable effort) due to which sometimes the alert slider does not work, you have to press and move it. Is not noticeable unless you pull at the sides.
Does not add any thickness overall apart from the upper and the lower lip on the back. However the phone feels a bit broader in hand.
Overall happy, although pricey for 1700 inr ordered via their site 5$ discount covered the shipping.
I also have the sandstone and spigen tough armor.

Buy the gadgetshieldz screen protector. It is also film type one and durable too. Also it gives you the option of full phone film.

I have ordered one because my onePlus3 has many scratches one the surface, but the protector has reduced the display quality. Is there any screen protector that does not reduce the display quality? I have removed the protector, because for me it is better with scratches on the display than having reduced contrast by protector.
By the way, i never had scratches on any Phone display. The resistance to scratches seems to be very bad on this phone.

Recommended screen protector?

I just received an IQ Shield Matte screen protector and I'm really disappointed. It screws up the colors and whites have a rainbow effect to them. I took it off and now I'm looking for a new one. I'd like one that is:
1. Anti-glare
2. Anti-fingerprint
3. Clear and doesn't screw with this beautiful display.
Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance!

Thee one and only,,,,but more importantly expensive whitestone dome screen protector is probably the most I've heard of working...45 to 50 dollars tho

Any you can recommend about $20 and under?

First I tried the Spigen NeoFlex film screen protectors and they are garbage. Then I ordered a cheapo full cover tempered glass screen protector from eBay and it works great.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/3D-Full-Cov...ector-For-Samsung-Galaxy-Note-8-/332345555824
I've only been using it for about a week so I can't say how well it will keep dust out. Sensitivity is great, I don't notice it's on at all. It's not Anti-glare or Anti-fingerprint but it's only $8.

I'm using the i-blason tempered glass.
Under $20, it's still on, doesn't interfere with the screen.
It's still going to collect fingerprints and smudges due to the oils in our skin, but it wipes off easily.

Oh wow that sucks but for some reason YouTubers recommend this for s8 and note 8 idk man it looks promising but yeah that warning I've never seen before

There are plenty of discussions under the accessories section
But I'd say don't bother. I had one tempered glass protector on for an hour before it annoyed me too much and I removed it! Destroys the feel and use of the phone.

I have been buying the RhinoShield stuff for my stuff and its held up really well for me.
rhinoshield.io is where you'll find it.. (I havn't logged in long enough that I forgot my account info :/ )
edit: found my login info so now I can add the link:
https://rhinoshield.io/collections/samsung-galaxy-note-8
Plus, nobody else's stuff has any evidence that even suggests it actually works.
I havn't tried it for the note8 but I came by this thread while I was researching if anyone had so figure I'd mention it. It is expensive to get the whole kit (screen protector, bumper, and in this case rear glass protector), but I found it worth it..

I have a cheapo '2.5D' glass and its doing well. Touch response is worse mind.
There is a speaker hole at the top; this needs covering with a bit of tape or you wil get dust between the screen and the protector.

I purchased a relatively inexpensive TG protector. While it exhibits many of the drawbacks of TG protectors that aren't full-adhesive (i.e. all of them except the Whitestone Dome), it doesn't have quite the "rainbow effect" that I've seen with other protectors.
Its real downside, though, is its slickness ... I need a more paper-like surface to better control the s-pen. Just the tiniest bit of friction would help. I'm thinking that I may have to go to a film protector rather than TG to get that, though. Does anyone else have this issue with TG protectors?

Ever since the introduction of the edge curved screen (and I have owned the lot) I have never found a decent screen saver. It is a subject on every forum here on XDA and concerning all the Samsung edge models.
I have taken recommendations only to find them useless. Some use a glue, some have a dotted appearance after application some just suck period!
I used a partial screen saver once that just covered the centre of the screen but even that proved awful. Even used Samsungs own on the Note 7 and though that was not glass it also was horrible.
If any peer here does find a working screen protector PLEASE let us know.

Whitestone is the best.

I like the Spigen NeoFlex, it's been great so far for me. Went on easily, hasn't peeled off the corners/edge (and I use the Spigen Tough Armor case) and after the 12 hours to settle on the screen it looks great and writing on it with the s-pen feels good too. My personal opinion and the only one I've tried so far on my Note 8

Can the Whiitestone be removed once it's been glued to the Screen?

yes

I got the Bodyguardz glass protector sold to me at the AT&T store (lazy me). The guy installed it and it's ok. Glass protectors have an innate problem in that they sometimes don't transmit touches to the touchscreen itself. This one is no different but it does fit well. And it has a lifetime free replacement policy. I'll keep it to protect my screen.
