I've been reading all those BSE and Invisible Shields threads and when I was decided to order a body protection from BSE I remembered that for my old Nexus One I got a screen protector from StealthGuards as it was for free (I only had to pay the shipping) and the quality was similar (If not the same) as ZAGG's Invisible Shields. It took like 10 days to arrive to my home (Spain) and I had to pay less than $7, around 5,5€.
I just wanted to let the people around that they keep giving away the protector (full body) for free, they'll charge you a bit more if you want matte look but glossy one is OK with me.
Their website is http://stealthguards.com/
That was it, If it's not OK to talk about this in here please excuse me and delete my thread.
And excuse my english.

Ah well, as I said I used these on my Nexus One and the results were good
Not trying to flame but I had bad experiences with them.
I ordered 3 iPod Touch 4G screen protectors for my family to their home and ordered Nexus S protector to my dorm.
I received 2 Galaxy S screen protectors and my parents received 1 iPhone 4G protectors.
I e-mailed them and they simply ignored me for 3-4 days.
I decided to dispute.. I guess they didn't respond to PayPal so I got my money back within a week.
I've ordered from them twice and got my order no problem.
I have the NS skin on the back. Gives me the protection I want at 10% the cost of invisible shields and the like. I'm happy with my purchase
I use these on my Samsung Vibrant. I completely forgot about it, I'll head on over to there and get one for my NS4G. Thanks for reminding!
I had a stealth guard on my hero for a while. It just seemed to collect dirt in the corners and make the phone look bad. Finally got rid if it for a otterbox, which of course they won't make one for this phone.

I've searched around on ebay but really only see what looks like generic, or the SKinomi stuff. Does anyone have experience with any of the sellers and could recommend some?
EDIT: Xtremeguard is having a sale currently, 90% off. I've bought from them many times in the past. Not bad for a cheap protector. I'm actually using a cut up one from xtremeguard...was a battery protector for my galaxy note 2.
Got 4 for 2.80 shipped

Good question... I looked them up and yes, they are that price, but shipping here in the US is 5.99! Hardly worth ordering for something that can be easily just cut out of vinyl or a spare screen saver.

I just picked up the ZAGG invisible shield last weekend at best buy for 15$ and they gave me a 10$ Best Buy gift card. Not sure if that is everywhere just thought I'd share

I got the same deal, whole order for something like 10 of them was under $5 total.
These are awesome screen protectors, when correctly installed they are crystal clear and completely invisible.
I'm pretty happy with the clear Skinomi one. It's a little soft but I like the fact the it has a bit of adhesive on it so It's stuck my watch pretty good. And the fact that it's soft allows it to bend better to hug the curve of the watch. Also the clasp one covers the entire clasp even the sides, and also it comes with 2 extra strips that protects the sides of the watch as well. I bought my 1st set on amazon right after I got my watch for christmas. Had it on since and the only issue I've had is on the clasp side, the bottom corner near the band got caught on something so it lifted up the corner slightly. Instead of removing and reapplying it, I just cut the lifted part off with a nail cutter. It's been almost a month and half and it still intact and I wear my watch everyday, except when I go to sleep.
A few days later i bought mine I saw a post about a 60% off year end sale from Skinomi. So I bought a back up just in case and 2 sets for my note 3.
Could someone write the size of the glass of the display ? I would like to know if the films GEAR1 are compatible with the grar2 NEO
thanks

What is the best glass screen protector available right now for the note 4? I wish the spigen gLass nano.slim was available....
spigen gLass nano.slim for sure, however, being in the same boat as most of yall waiting for it to become available I just ordered the iSmooth one as I've used them before and it's pretty good quality compared to the cheapo's out there.
Just to get me by...oh well...
This is what I have; I like tech armor because of their lifetime warranty. I have not used a glass screen protector before but put one of these on my wife's iphone and it seems great...

Ever since when there is Gorilla glass, I never use screen protector anymore.
Why do people need it now?
Sometimes I forget I have my keys, or loose change in my pocket. Don't want t o scratch the screen.

The question is:
Which glass screen protector will have the greatest coverage (closest to the edges) as most, if not all, glass protectors are cut short stopping right before the curves near the edges.
This may be a problem.....having second thoughts about glass screen protectors now...
I think the iloom e might have full coverage. They bragged about being the first to do it on iPhone 6 and that also has the 2.5D glass as well.
i grabbed this one, and it shipped really fast; not sure how it will work, but its full coverage, and under 9 bucks!

I don't use screen protectors either. But ever since I saw a few people here at work with glass screen protectors on their new iphones I've been looking around and they seem pretty awesome. I've seen a few videos on youtube where they smash the screen with a hammer and only the protector broke with the screen left intact.. Also the anti-fingerprint coating is a plus. The cases I buy always have to have a lip but the screen protector is just in case.
This UAG case I have on my note 2 has saved my phone so so many times from being dropped 5ft in the air flat on its face.
The tech armor doesn't come close to covering the whole screen..piss
I have always been partial to invisisheilds. The extreme versions is what I've used on my pass galaxy devices. Then I moved to the glass version of their product on my note 3. It was perfectly clear had a life time warranty. I am looking forward to using the same for my note 4.
I bought the Envelop one. Thing isn't even big enough, just ordered a Spigen one.
I bought two Spigens based on reputation and price: $3.49 each (plus $5.00 shipping) at the early morning (ET) Amazon flash sale. If I had to pay full price, I'd also consider a non-glass solution, Rhino Shield.
Darn, I bought the tech armor glass last week. I guess it'll have to hold me over until better ones come out. I bought it direct from Techarmor.com and used promo code TechArmor2962 for 30% off. Came out to be $9. I bought the Spigen one for the iPhone 6 and it didn't cover the entire front either.
I am still debating on whether to buy screen protectors either glass or not as I haven't used screen protectors in years and everything I have/had was/is fine...
but seeing how the note 4 would be the most expensive mobile/handheld device I've bought and come to think of it probably the most expensive thing I have every bought in my life I might wanna protect it from here and back XD

Rhino Shield's website has a variety of videos persuasively showing the need for some kind of screen protection. As between their product and a good glass screen protector, there seem to be both pluses and minuses, so long as one is willing to accept the fact that, in an acute situation, the glass screen protector will be destroyed.
Any of the glass protectors available leave the space between the home button and the bottom of the phone exposed? I don't think I want a glass protector that encircles the home button because that would mean trouble for the fingerprint scanner as far as I can tell - a sticker for the home button would surely interfere with it.
Thanks!

For what it's worth, I have the Mime Ghost glass protector and it encircles the home button. It doesn't effect the finger print scanner at all. It works great.
With that being said, I can't recommend the Mime. Like other glass protectors thus far the sides are no where close to staying flush against the screen.

I was in the process of purchasing the Tech Armor and for the life of me cannot find where to apply the discount code.
UPDATE: Per email response, no discount codes active at the moment.
XtremeGuard offers great deals on glass and ghost armor type screen protectors. Usually the deals range from 70 to 80% off. The bad thing? Quality of the product is concerning.
I've been buying from them for a while now. I ordered a full set for my G4 so it would arrive before I got the phone. I ordered the full body protection and a glass screen protector. They came in the mail after a week or two. First thing I noticed was I was sent 4 screen protectors and no back protector. I didn't understand why they would send four screen protectors until i tried to put them on. The protector is about a quarter inch too long for the screen. It hangs off the bottom of the phone. The glass protector also doesnt fit. It fits about half inch into the screen so there's a large gap all the way around.
I contacted Customer service who was quick to send out replacements... Of the same product. So two weeks later I receive the same protectors with the same problems.
tl;dr
Screen protectors don't fit and Customer service doesn't care. You get what you pay for.
I have the glass screen protector from them... Fits fine.
The protector shouldn't be edge to edge, if it is, you can't use a case.
However, i did order 2, and I'm glad i did. The edges had some tear out issues. Very minor, but i like a completely bubble free fit.
I've been using These guys since my original optimus g. The two times I've had even the smallest issue they've been very fast about sending me replacements; including this time.

The protectors I had for my g2 and g3 were nearly edge to edge. This one fit up to the top speaker and to the bottom of the LG logo on the bottom. I have a case for the phone and it's still a gap between the case and the glass screen protector.
Had three. For the G3, SGS4 and Nexus 7 (bought in one order).
All three abysmal. Refund for all. Never again.
I had them on several flagship phones. I never had an issue with them.

I had IQShield screen protectors for the LG G4 and it works fine.
I've had mixed results with the screen protectors they sell, I Only order from them when I have a 80-90% off promo code. Their customer service is usually top notch and the screen protectors are a great buy at 90% off ( full price is 49 bucks for a tempered glass one).

Xtremeguard Protectors LG G4
I ordered the normal screen protectors which seem to fit pretty well. I also ordered the "Spartan" tempered glass protector which did not seem to fit correctly as the shape didn't seem to fit well with the G4 while also having redundant cutouts, say for Flash and/camera on the top edge. In addition to that, it blocks the earphone speaker. Overall I think I was sent the wrong glass screen protector... Sent customer service a message so we'll see how that goes.
I ordered from this site, I was not too impressed with the quality of the items I received. Luckily it was all purchased during their Black Friday sale and everything was real cheap. Did not spend too much money!
I enjoy them when they are 92% off. I find their tempered glass to be pretty sufficient. Now their wet install type, front and back, used on my droid maxx. Made a few cases fit too tightly. But it was self healing.
Their hd dry install ones are hit or miss....they can interfere with cases. So if u are going to use the phone with an otterbox defender....i'd probably say get a tempered and remove the built in one.
I have used xtremeguard polyurethane skins for a long time now. They were never the best quality but they supported the most devices and were cheap at doing it. You don't even need to worry about the sales, if you buy anything new just go to xtremeguards ebay store and everything there is around $1.99 shipped.
About the only issues is during manufacturing when it gets rolled, something can make almost microscopic vertical (the line is always up and down, never at an angle) lines. Most people would never see them.
Is this to be expected or is this just a crap screen protector? I paid $40 for this thing because I forgot to order one with my phone, it was the only Nexus 5X protector I could find in a 50 mile radius. I put it on properly (bathroom after shower, hinge method), I'm using a case as well. I dropped it about a foot onto the floor today and the corner is smashed, glass shards falling out. Guess what the "lifetime warranty" doesn't cover?
This is the first glass protector I've had so I don't know if this is common for not. Of course they say it's designed to break as it takes the impact force away from the screen. So they're engineered to fail basically? I wouldnt mind as much if it had lasted longer than 6 days, I definitely didn't get my money's worth! I've never broken a screen with the plastic ones I've been using for years so I'm probably not going to use glass again, unless someone can show me a good one
I know a lot of people like the glass screen protectors, but I've had bad luck with them. I had good quality protectors on a DSLR and a phone, and they both "just broke" within a month. The folks who like these things all say, "See, it saved your device's screen!" Well, I don't buy it. Like the OP, I've never had a lick of trouble with screen damage while using a plastic screen protector.
I think it's all just ingenious marketing. They break, and the owner then declares it a good thing (saved my device!) and buys another.

You got ripped off if you paid $40 for a screen protector.

I broke my Spigen tempered glass screen protector a couple of days ago too. It wasn't related to any impact that I could tell, I just picked up my phone one day and there was a small chip/crack near the center of the screen.
I replaced it with another of the same type, but if it breaks again I'm going back to PET.

Ikr, it was either buy one for way too much or not use the phone because I refuse to touch the bare screen with my dirty filthy hands lmao ? I just ordered the spigen crystal plastic 3 pack for 12 on amazon.
Pleson glass screen protector with Cruzerlite case user here. I've dropped my phone with that setup probably a handful of times and have had no problems. Had a different brand glass screen protector and same case for my GS5 for the 1.5 year I had it and no problems with that as well. I've never spent more than $10-$15 on the screen protectors.

I use a glass screen protector on my 5x, my girlfriend uses one for her iPhone. I've never cracked any of my phones' screens, nor have I cracked my glass screen protector (this is my first device with one). My girlfriend has broken her current iPhone's screen twice. So I made her get a glass screen protector to see if that'd help. Went a month before hers cracked from dropping it. But saved getting the screen replaced! I think they're worth it...

If you pay more than $5 for tempered glass, you're gonna have a bad time. They are all literally the exact same thing.
That being said... It alllllll depends on how it hits. OP, sounds like you just had it in a sweet spot.
Worst case anyways, screen assemblies are going for $60 if you know where to source the part. LG phones are super quick and easy to fix.
$40 is too expensive for me,many brands are avaliable and you really don't need pay so much!As far as i know,lifetime warranty dosen't cover"abnomal use",if your protector have halo effects or bubbles during installation etc,sellers will arrange a new one for you without hesitate.
I know op is a bit old by now and it's already been said, but $40 for a tempered glass screen protector was a huge ripoff.
On amazon they are 6-10 max. I've got a few different brands and they are all the same - meaning they are probably just bought by different companies for their own rebranding.

The biggest difference is some of the cheaper ones lack oleophobic coatings, or have weak ones which wear out very quickly. Also more expensive ones tend to have edges rounded off which is nice for people who don't use a case.
I bought one of their screens for my LGV30+ as its the only one I could find retail that seemed ok. It's terrible, the silicone seal failed after 2 months, screen cracked after 3. They won't honor the lifetime warranty unless I send them 9.99$ on top of the 40$ original price. Hilarious company.
