I recently bought a Huawei Mate S and used the included Huawei flip cover. After a few days I noticed scratches on the display in the area of the window of the cover. I never had it in a bag with keys or anything like that. The display only touched my finger and the cover. Obviously the glass of the window together with dust particles causes the scratches. Samsung had a similar issue with the Galaxy S6 and their Clear View Covers. Samsung now offers display replacement for damages caused by their cover.
Did anyone else have this problem with the Huawei cover? Did Huawei replace your damaged screen? In my opinion, Huawei has to replace displays damaged by their own covers but they'll probably only do this if enough people complain about it.
If you own a Mate S and didn't have this problem by now you should consider not using the included cover or buy a screen protector before using it.
Thanks for sharing

Hi All,
My preferred phone protection is to have a tempered glass screen protector and silicone case. Saved my old phone from bad damage a couple times while bouncing on the street.
Now... the challenge I have with the P9000 is that the silicone case that came with the phone doesn't go 'over' the edges of the tempered glass protector and pushes it off.
rather annoying!
Ordered some other silicone cases on Aliexpress but the same problem.
Anybody found a nice case that does the trick? Tried 'heat stretching' the case a bit for a better fit but no luck so far.
thanks!

yup same problem. i cut the case a bit and now it dont look nice . but it works.
Hi.
My problem was that one corner of the glass doesn't stick to the LCD. After I applied the silikoncase it fits.
I have the case that come with the phone.
I stretched it a little bit over the corners of the phones without heat.
Greetings

Had the same issue what you need to do is force phone by slotting it into case then pull the lip over the screen protector. Do this to all corners and you'll have no issues.

Congrats on having it fixed without any drastic measures! I went the 'cutting route' for now since I had to replace the screen protector and didn't want to risk another one.
But I've got another set of silicone cases coming from aliexpress to check if they are a bit better!
I've got 2 P9000's (one for me one for my girlfriend) so actually I already wrecked 2 screen protectors.
Same problem here. Original case and aliexpress case. No luck.
i bought the official flip case and tempered glass.
tried the case first which fit but found the buttons a bit hard to press.
if you fold the case front behind the phone the camera is blocked also.
could view the on screen clock and notifications through the case screen window.
once applied the tempered glass the phone wouldn't recognize the flip case, so when i closed it over the screen remained on and the case window became useless.
this company do nothing right do they.
Had to struggle the same problem, but now i could fix it.
Just make sure the glass is positioned in centre on the screen. When putting on the case, make sure the case slips properly over the first 3 corners. For the last one, you can use any tool (i a used knife, but be careful ) to overlap the edge of the silicon case with the tempered glass.
No matter what I did, it wouldn't do it without lifting the glass

I have the same issue (sometimes) with matte film protectors and the standard case.
Always on the top right corner for me - where I've got fractionally less unprotected screen , so maybe very precise alignment of the screen protector would help you?
Pulling the case over the edge of the screen with my fingernails was enough for me
Cut the flip in the flip-case.

Cut the flip in the flip-case. Just kepping the hard back. This way you can use the glass and have back protection. I did this and works fine.
I use this glass protector - http://www.ebay.com/itm/282044598237?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
there is a space between the silicon case and the glass so they don't touch each other

The hard back in the flip case is useless. Too fragile, corners and button covers break easily, my P9000 fell just once not too hard and the screen left upper corner broke. Silicone cover is better protection
u can use scotch tape on the bottom corners of the glass to stop it from lifting, funny idea but works, if u want to save a new case cost.
My case is creating tiny scratches on the screen, just to make everyone aware the plastic around the "S" window is the culprit.
Maybe Elephone could consider changing the design of the case to resolve this issue.......

got same issue... i placed the glass protector... now is the glass protector that take scratches.... btw i dont suggest anyone to buy the original elephone cover... is just a piece of **** useless ... and made very bad ... the ingenier behind must be a complete idiot!
I bought an original flip case but it doesn't close properly and the phone doesn't seem to fit in 100%.
Trying to use the side controls with the official flip case drove me nuts. Now using the silicone cover that came with the phone along with tempered glass screen instead - a massive improvement
The screen glass is not scratch resistant ... poor.
I have discarded the flip case, with the window, for three reasons.
1. The plastic surround to the window was scratching my screen , the outline of the window has been etched into the glass.
2. It is much easier to use the clear plastic backing case, for answering the phone, general use and removing the card tray,
The flip case is a very tight fit.
3. I wonder whether the magnet in the case, which is in very close proximity to the card tray, is affecting the SD card and causing dropping of the connection and resultant corruptions.
Since I started using the clear plastic case, I have had no SD card problems.
I had issues with the tempered glass and the silicone cover.
Switched from always using the original flip cover. It was too annoying, the volume plastic thing broke off and had to use some other plastic bit in there. Also in a car mount its just in the way.
The tempered glass i had on was damaged putting on the plastic case, had one in spare and so far that works. Ordered some other tempered films just in case.
Hi, for those of you with a P9 plus and using a screen protector, I'm wondering if anyone of you have found one that fits the screen properly? Here in Hong Kong, most stores I've gone to sell the same temper glass protector for P9 and the P9 Plus. I wasn't aware of this on first purchase, then I realized the cover only barely covers the screen ,leaving these unsightly cover edges still visible on the phone's front. i ripped it off and got a second one at another store, only to realize it still doesn't fit.
in short, i have been unable to find a screen protector that actually FITS the P9 plus completely. i think i saw on a thread somewhere that another person had the same problem ordering screen covers off Amazon (P9 screen protectors passing off as P9 plus protectors).

try this - i ordered one and waiting for it
here
I ordered on Amazon the YOOTECH 3 Pack screen protector, i'm waiting for the product but on the description and images show that fits completely all the display.
There is also the TPU screen protector of PURO that promise to cover all the display like confirmed from his assistance.
I recently tried ZAGG invisible shield. It was able to cover most of the screen especially the left and right curved edges although a concern for the top and bottom part.
1. cutouts for the front camera, proximity sensor and the earpiece are off. I think 2-3 millimeters.
2. length from top to bottom - it ends right below the huawei branding logo considering the placement for the cutouts.
So taking those into account, I sent an email to ZAGG support and they were kind enough to consider rechecking/measuring the placement of their cutouts for the P9 plus. I am still waiting for the replacement protector they are sending as they offered it seeing how their layout is on my phone.
Will give an update once it arrives (and I get it installed).
I have received the screen protector mentioned in the previous post, it's very good and cover practically all the screen, is a tpu protection and all the holes of front camera etc have optimal dimensions.
Under you can see a photo.
Good one .!
Yes very good considering that all the others was horrible.
Just only one negative thing, It is not anti-fingerprint but it can simply cleaned.
Ordered nilkin hard case and tempered glass. WOuld have preferred Spigen or otterbox case but none yet available here. Lazada Philippines.
Package contains:
Nillkin Frosted Shield Hard Case for Huawei Acend P9 Plus (Black)
Qty: 1
Nillkin Tempered Glass for Huawei Ascend P9 Plus (Clear)
Qty: 1

Can you post a photo of your P9+ with the TG installed? I find that the black bars kind of ruined P9+ design. Does "Press Touch" still work like without the TG on?
Hello.
When using Genuine Samsung Clear View Cover after a short use I discovered scratches on the display. Do you have a similar experience? I thought Gorilla Glass 4 lasts more and it does not scratch the plastic.
What corning did with GG4 is improve shatter resistance which in turn unfortunately meant that the glass will scratch more easily. It isn't the cover that is scratching the display. What happens is that tiny particles some of which might contain sand (which can easily scratch GG4) get stuck between the cover and the screen and rub against the screen leading to scratches. A screen protector will hide the scratches and prevent anymore from happening.
I understand that GG scratched mainly dust particles, but it is only in places where it touches the display cover. For a better idea, I added a video.

Damn screen scratches so easily

Don't use that case, it is very poorly designed, the S6 Edge had a lot of scratching issues from the corresponding case.
I've learned I ordered the case with eBay in which the display soft cloth. So I hope that there will be no scratches

I just bought a clear view standing cover for my Note8.
But some of my friends said that the case might damage, scratch screen, just like galaxy s6, s7.
Is there anybody using this case ? It is good ?
I've been using one for three weeks now & no signs of any scratches at all!

That's good.
But some people said that the cover had damaged screen on the same part where the circle is on the cover.
I had the case on my Note 5, without screen protector. Admitedly I used to snap it shut without a care, but within 48 hrs, I found a very faint scuff, made by a speck of dust between case and screen.... I have bought the Clear view standing cover for my Note 8 but I'm struggling with getting a screen protector that works for me. I'm teetering on the verge of going nude in the case, but being aware to clear the screen before closing, and I possibly might pop a screen cloth in between case and screen if I'm putting it in my handbag or purse.....
