Can anyone recommend a screen protector?
Mine doesn't have the factory one on and the after market ones all go to the edge of the screen, which is not good as when I put my cover on the edges foul each other causing the protector to eventually start to come off.
I don't like tempered glass, must be a flexible protector. Can anyone recommend one that doesn't fit to the edges?
No

I'm wondering what type of adhesives are used to adhere screen protectors to the cell phone display. Maybe we can use some of strong, yet removable adhesives to help stick the screen protectors to the curved edges of the Galaxy S7 Edge. Then we can use whatever case we want and not worry about peeling edges.
Anyway, my question is about the types of adhesives used for this application.
Thanks!

There are a few used like silicone and double sided tape. Then you have wet and dry installed screen protectors which I'm not sure what adheres them. You don't want something too strong that would stick because they do get worn and need to be removed

So could I use some regular clear silicone, like from Home Depot, to stick down the edges of a screen protector on the curved sides of the S7 Edge? How optically clear would that be? Would it be easy to remove later?

I wouldn't but it's your phone. Don't know about regular silicone but what kind of screen protector are you trying to stick down that won't stay?! If your having trouble with screen protectors and cases, you can get a case friendly protector. Or if your looking for glass check out the thread about them. I'm running amazingthing and commuter case and it fits fine with no liftingood at all. I like cases but don't change them out often enough. I'd really just prefer a spring holster as that's what I used with my previous non samsung phones..
i have try the tpu protector, current techmology is very difficult to install on phone
The Edge screen with how most of the cases work today has caused me issues with almost every one I have tried. It always ends up getting peeled up at the top and the bottom and often the corners as well. I am considering trying to trim my skinomi screen protector to make it not get in the way of the case.
Why can't there be a tacky optically clear adhesive that we can use on the edges of screen protectors to make them stay down? The glass screen protectors have some sort of silicone adhesive on the edges, why not have that on PET or TPU protectors as well?
Most tempered glass screen protectors come with an install frame. Can i still use the clear case or will the frame get in the way?
I have a lg v20 atm and if i use a tempered glass screen protector i will sometimes get oil like stains on it. Does the same problem exist with the note 9? I will most likely get a normal 13€ screen protector from amazon.de and just hope that the s pen will still work, that i can still use a case with it and that there wont be any annoying oil like stains
Personally I haven't had any compatibility issues between cases and cheaper screen protectors, since most of them don't cover the screen edge-to-edge. What will likely happen with the cheaper ones is the rainbow effect resembling an oil stain which you mentioned - this happens because underneath most screen protectors is a microscopic dot matrix keeping the glass slightly elevated from the display surface, with glue only on the edges of the protector. To avoid this, what you want is a screen protector that utilizes a full glue structure; in short, a glass protector whose entire surface area is adhered to the display. These are sold less and less, because generally they're very tricky to install on curved glass. You might want to consider products like the Whitestone Dome, which uses liquid UV glue.
You don't need to worry about the S pen - Unless your new screen protector is made of metal, it will work with every film or glass sheet out there.
I've got a Whitestone Dome protector fitted to my NOTE9 and I'm using the Samsung clear case that came with my phone.
No issues at all, the Samsung clear case and Whitestone Dome protector do not interfere with each other.
Just confirming... are you referring to the Samsung Note9 S-View Cover?
If so, most screen protectors shouldn't interfere with the case. The frame you referenced is generally for installing the protector, then it's removed.
I use an S-View Cover. I like it in general, but two things:
1) Anticipate that the cover won't set flat for a while (if ever): Some have used a hairdryer or heatgun along the rib to get it to relax. That helped mine a bit.
2) It scratches easily! If I had a do-over, I'd try to find a protective film to cover it
I've got a Whitestone glass screen protector and the Samsung case has no problems, also have an Otterbox Symmetry case and no problem with that one either. Like was said most glass screen protectors don't go right to the edge so most case should have no trouble.
I just ordered my ROG Phone 2 from china. Do I need to order a screen protector for it as well?
It did not come with one only a clear case. Order one
The phone has no screen protector, so I bought this on Amazon Prime, it includes both a TPU case and a glass screen protector: https://www.amazon.com/Tempered-Flexible-Protector-Lightweight-Shockproof/dp/B07WFCYXBP/
It ships from US so you get it in a few days. The phone comes with a case but it is hard plastic (acrylic/PET/polycarbonate?) while the Amazon case is rubbery polyurethane that covers more of the phone and has bubbled corners to absorb drops better. The screen protector is the normal glass kind. It doesn't seem to mess up the fingerprint reader much if at all (it reads my fingerprint 90% of the time, otherwise I have to try again). The screen protector has a black border that covers the very edge of the screen which I don't like. Hopefully someone sells all-clear glass protector soon.
What tempered glass is everyone using for the V60? I don't use the Dual Screen, so I just need it to cover the phone screen.
Dmax glass was the thinnest glass screen protector I have ever seen for any phone I've put glass on ever.
Came in a pack of two. I chipped and cracked the edge of one with my fingernail simply taking the film off to install it. The second cracked in a couple days later from setting the phone down too hard I guess.
LK glass had poor adhesion. Large air bubbles on the edges of the screen. Bad enough I took it off after a month to try a diffrent brand. Noticed the sticky part of the glass felt subpar after uninstall.
Now using Zagg glass and its okay. Doable for now. However a thin ring shaped air bubble is present on the Zagg around the edges of the screen. It's thin and even, and can't be seen when the screen is on. When off it looks like its gonna start peeling up at the edges.
The issue I had with glass is that its too thick to close the cover if you have one on the phone and one on the sexind screen
AmFilm is what I put on the phone today. Came in a pack of three. Probably the best protector I've tried yet.
Thicker glass, might be a true 0.3mm. No bubbles or rings near the edges. Sticks very well, good adhesive.
Touch is good and looks are good with the screen off or on.
However, AmFilm is slightly (1mm?) shorter and narrower than the Zagg glass.
The Zagg glass was 0.26-0.23mm thick and covered more screen surface. The Zagg covers more screen surface than LK, DMax, or AmFilm.
However, the Zagg never adhered to the screen edges completely resulting in a white ring air pocket along the outer edges of the protector.
The Zagg glass was stuck to the screen very well when I removed it. The outer air pocket never did grow in size, was very narrow, just annoyed me to look at when the screen was off.
Overall the Zagg was a good option, but maybe not for those like me that value good looks as highly as I do.
The DMax Armor glass I tried was so thin, it might be an option for the dual screen case. DMax could have been 0.15mm thick possibly. Really similar to the Baseus ultra thin glass.
It's very fragile stuff as noted above, but again DMax might be as thick as double overlapped film protectors.
For those looking at a good protector here is the link for what I am using. Installs with ease, no bubbles and halos.

Can anyone share a good screen protector link (AliExpress) . I used two screen protector one which didn't cover the complete screen and screen on edges is left out the other one was which had black outline on edges and it covered that screen but now you couldn't see any thing below edges.
I personally use IBYWIND, its a complete set, 2 tempered glass, carbon fiber protector for the back and a camera lens protector plus it comes with an easy install tool too
