Rear glass film protector?

Wondering if anyone knows of a rear glass plastic film protector. I prefer no case, but the slipperiness and the fingerprint magnet that is the back glass has me wanting a back film but still clear to keep the design. I notice the front glass has an exceptional oleophobic coating to resist fingerprints, but I was hoping for something that was clear and a little more grippy, but not like a skin where it covers the back design.

Not available since the large curve... Your best bet is a skin or a film protector

Please consider using a clear decal from SKINOMI.
Also Dbrand and Slickwraps have great designer decals.

Samsung told me the back is NOT gorilla glass.

Tempered glass

Does anyone use a tempered glass? Because of the curved edges I suppose that a tempered glass will not cover the hole screen and might look ugly. I currently have a simple screen protector that looks fine, but I am thinking of buying a Nillkin tempered glass like e.g the one in the link http://m.ebay.com/itm/HOT-NILLKIN-9...en-For-HUAWEI-MATE-S-/262097328806?nav=SEARCH
In general I am satisfied with the quality of this brand. Any other suggestions?

have you tried this one yourself? how does it fit? so far all the ones i have tried are too small i would like it to fit nearer the edges so it is not so obvious.
has anyone been able to find one that fits very close to the edges.

There's now some companies making Tempered Glass specifically for curved edges like iPhone 6/s, Galaxy etc etc.
The trick is apply silicone on the edges of the tempered Glass.
But i haven´t found for Mate S yet...

has anyone found a tempered glass that fits correctly and does not leave too much of a gap at the edges and most of all reduces fingerprints on this thing?

My best fitment guess would be nillkin tempered h+pro. I just ordered it to my phone its ultra thin and it really protects screen from shattering if you drop (hand to floor). I have owned that protector on my Nexus5, G3 and G4 and i really love it.

I've not found a "perfect" screen cover yet for the phone. I like the 2.5d screen but it makes finding a "perfect" tempered glass solution a problem. I have a full screen protector one on now and it's okay. I haven't found one of those that have adhesive on the entire back panel of the glass. The adhesive is only around the edges on the painted surfaces.
I have another one I haven't tried yet. It looks like it has adhesive on the entire back surface and the outer edges are made of carbon fiber (supposed to be anyway) The outer edges are at least a soft material that supposed to stick to the entire edge and curve around so that it fits a 2.5d screen better. The problem with the ones I bought is that you can't see the backlight from the buttons on the bottom of the phone. Not a deal breaker but a flaw in the design.
Do some searches on aliexpress or someplace and you'll see. Search for redmi note 4x carbon fiber to see the second one I mentioned and redmi note 4x tempered glass for the full screen ones I also mentioned. There are clear non full screen ones that don't go to the edges of the glass. I haven't purchased one of those and probably won't.

It's really hard to find something decent. I personally prefer the traditional tempered glass screen protectors, but I've tried three now and they all look terrible, huge white marks on the sides even though the tempered glass doesn't cover the full screen. The full coverage one lost its adhesive due to my case pushing up against it, and it looks awful with weird adhesive marks in the middle. Honestly I'm contemplating going back to a film screen protector because I just can't find a tempered glass screen protector that will work for me. Also worth noting that I have a friend with a White Redmi Note 4x and I was able to transplant my screen protector onto this device with zero issues, so it's as if the black variant has glass that is more curved than normal

I applied my tempered glass with my case on the phone. It's one of the full screen protectors with the painted frame around the outside. I think they do that to hide the fact that the glass doesn't fit to the curve. It looks good but I know it's not a perfect fit.

Upon research there appears to be fluid you can apply to the edges to get a perfect seal to remove the halo effect... I will investigate further

With my new case I posted about the full screen tempered glass looks perfect except for the fact they don't put adhesive on the entire back panel. Just under the painted area.

Yes... in my experience this doesn't last. I had two lift up and get dust underneath and then it was horrible after that. Also I got the weird rainbow effect in the middle of the glass and the keys at the bottom didn't line up exactly.

I stay in Hyderabad India and on the name of tempered glasses they are just selling cheap flimsy transparent fiber or thin glass kind of material which is easily broken they are not actually tempered though the cover has a picture of hammer but they are not tempered glass.

As no hard material can cover a curved glass manufacturers need to make a hybrid glass. What I have done is bought a edge to edge glass from glazedinc.com and a tpu case from local market, edge to edge glass protects my display from scratches without compromising the looks and tpu case protects my device from falls. It's the nearest to perfect solution one can do for the note 4

Good to hear I too bought the edge to edge tempered glass which is still flimsy but still can protect the screen without compromising the looks however I'm looking forward to purchase hard kickstand case which can protect the device when it falls. Kindly give me the link of that TPU case you bought and please tell me if it is hard enough to protect the phone. Thanks in advance.

Mi Note 3 Tempered Glass, Full Cover

I've ordered at about 5-6 Tempered Glass for our Mi Note 3, and it wasn't easy to find one which fitted our phone perfectly. If you'll order one, than search for 'full cover'
This one fitted our display perfectly and is rounded and cheap, too:
https://de.aliexpress.com/item/LITB...-Xiaomi-anmerkung3-Glas-Film/32846070628.html

Yep, finally gave up searching for a fully transparent one as none fits edge to edge, ended up buying the one you posted and somewhat satisfied because it covers edge to edge, albeit the precision is a bit questionable and the matte finish gives different impression of blue (it's more like purple). NVM, my back cover is protected with a transparent TPU case and I can still myself in the "mirror" which is very helpful for back camera selfie (I love to do that because pixel2mod front camera won't work in advanced features like bokeh).

I have a few ones`s: At the moment i use one 9H tempered, and with colour blue. Not the qualith of a Ultimate Shield or Nilkellin, but it works so far...
And covers all screen.

Im using this for my Blue model:

Of course is not a Nilkellin or Ultimate Shield, but covers it all.

I brought it in Taobao and I don't think it can spam oversea outside of China. It need special oil to fix 2.5d glass problem which is liquid but become solid when dry.

Since mi note3 has curved edges, I bought soft protectors form taobao. Glass protectors dont fit very well.

Ace case do a tempered glass one that fits the corners perfectly. The main issue with it is that only the top and bottom coloured sections have glue on. Hard to explain but the part coving the screen doesn't so the slight air gap does effect viewing quality after a month or two.
I just got a ace case invisible screen protector to replace the tempered glass one and it is excellent. Obviously it won't protect as well from a large fall but I think it should still do a good job.
It's a soft plastic screen protector that you apply wet to the phone and it drys out after a few hours. Perfect fit and the quality is excellent. Feels good under the fingers and is very resistant to smudges. I'm really impressed so far.

Question Camera protection

Hi all just a basic question is it worth to put a protector on the camera or not? If so what ones would you recommend?
Thanks

I've been thinking about this myself. I've just put on a case because I know when putting the phone down, the first thing that touches the surface will be the camera module. Also since the module is just metal this time, I figure the paint will be the first thing to scuff off.
A glass protector might be a bit thick.

Don't use the full glass that covers the camera lens - the gap will cause condensation since it's not on the surface of the lens.
Skins or the aluminium ones with the cutouts should work fine.

Simply use a good case with raised guards around the cam module. It's protective lense cover is replaceable anyway. Don't use it as a finger hold...
That's all I have on the 10+ and I live in the dusty desert. Zero scratches so far.
Carefully clean with a dry microfiber cloth as needed.

I was thinking of getting that case but would worried me was that all it would take is a little stone get caught under that camera slider other than that looks nice.

Hey thanks for all your replies seeing as my case is slightly raised above the camera think I will leave the camera protector off for now..

My Bolt case has a raised 5-6 mm guard on the cam/sensor modules.
Case selection is limited for this new phone.
Check out the Zizo Bolt when it becomes available. It's my favorite case; it can take a hit, is easy to hold and use. Also has slightly raised guards for the display, good corner hit protection but still fairly compact.

I bought whitestone glass screen protector for the camera when I first removed the plastic. It has held up for the few days I've had the phone. It does cover the lens with glass so it should protect them. Had plastic film on my S10+ but came off when I wasn't looking and didn't seem like I needed the protection though as the camera is not scratched or cracked..

The hood on high dollar lens isn't there just to reduce flaring, it helps protect the lense from direct contact. Even in falls it does this quit well.
Likewise your case should have good raised protection to help avoid contact with anything.
Poor cleaning techniques are the next biggest hazard. Keep your fingers off it and use only a microfiber cloth to clean it. Dirt, sand, grit doesn't scratch it unless you rub it. Wait to clean it if you can't do it right at that moment. Use a blower bulb the remove loose sand etc before you use the microfiber cloth.

this kind of case also solve the problem of a "dancing phone" when you use it on a table

Ok just an update I thought i would try camera protection so i brought a couple they were glass type ones day time pics were not bad but night pictures i kept getting lens flare. So i took off the protector and lens flare was gone. So i thought I would let you know of my result using glass type.

Are the Whitestone Dome ones any good?

It will be good to have som addon for camera to protect.

yeah I`m waiting on my later case, the cyber edition covers the camera bump and has round cutouts for the cameras, so well see when it shows up.

sure will, I had a note 20 Ultra that I had and used the later case cyber edition for that and loved it, might be late feb or march before I get the case.

I just have to say that the tempered glass ones suck. Because of the metal frame, they use some kind of strong adhesive to get the tempered glass to adhere. It's impossible to remove without the glass shattering. I managed to remove the tempered glass camera protector but it managed to scuff/scratch the matte black metal around the cameras... sucks.

Wow that does suck mine was sticky but lucky enough managed to get it off without any problems.

I'm just worried that the sticky glass might damage the flat black paint on the camera hump when you try to remove it?
