I used the Amfilm Tempered glass protector for my Note 9, but see that their protectors for recent models go for $39. Wow. I think I paid $12 for the Note 9. With the new Gorilla glass on the Ultra, do folks think I still need a glass protector, or would a film type protector be enough? Any recommendations?
The Ultra is so expensive that I decided to get the Ultimate Shield protector x 2 with full adhesive. With 10% discount UK price is £27
Just out of interest is a screen protector needed with this new stronger glass?
To avoid the possibility of micro-scratches, I'd still invest in a good SP.

Not for sure. Some reviewers mention it exists some don't mention it at all. For now,50/50
I've never used a protector that needs UV to attach. Are this type that much better than the regular Tempered glass protectors?

No. they do not come with the factory installed protector like the S20 Ultra did. Just a thin peel off film like on the back of the phone.

I am not sure, I am using a Whitestone Dome Tempered Glass screen protector on my Note 8 and ordered the one for the Note 20 Ultra...... Whitestone Dome protectors come with a UV light in the kit and I have been very happy with them. I only had to replace it on the Note 8 1 time and it was my fault for dropping the phone.... The phone made it through it fine with zero damage to the screen, but they are expensive.
For now, I just ordered a 2-pack of the Ringke Easy Dual screen protectors for $10. I loved them on my Note 10+ and my wife's S10+.
I also used Whitestone Dome on my Note 10+. I liked it, but it certainly affected the fingerprint sensor.
I wont be spending $65 on Whitestone Dome this year (although it's 20% off right now on their site).
If there's some decent competitors to Whitestone Dome for the Note 20 Ultra, like there was for the Note 10+, I may consider one of those.
It looks like AmFilm has a UV application protector coming out:
amFilm Ultra Glass Screen Protector for Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, (2 Pack) UV Gel Application, Tempered Glass, Compatible with UltraSonic FingerPrint Scanner for Galaxy Note 20 Ultra (2020) that's going for $39.99 at Amazon. It won't be in stock until 8/25. I just ordered the Spigen wet application film protector until the reviews come in on the AmFilm. I have the Sammy LED Wallet case so the front of the phone is mostly covered when not in use.

No, the S20 Ultra had a factory install plastic screen protector that was pretty decent.
The Note 20 ultra only has that thin plastic to protect the screen during shipping, two different animals.

The only thing I don't like about the Note 20 Ultra version is that it's the "Wing" version, so it wraps around the edges of the device. I'd prefer it stop at the edge of the screen, but it will do for now.
If anyone is interested in the dome, they've got a deal right now - 2 pack for $52. Need to use code Note20...Probably doing it myself, they are the best I've used.

They definitely will. I'm.sayijg from experience with the Note 10+ and the S10+, which both use the same fingerprint reader, that they have no effect on the fingerprint reader.
It's only affected when there's an air gap between the screen and the screen protector. These are a film that applies directly to the screen.

So i got my Xtremeguard Tempered Glass Screen protector and back protector. Highly Disappointed. Halo all around and the film for the back of the phone is cut to big and the the cutout around the camera and heart rate sensor looks horrible. The back film I will have to cut myself so it fits, its just to go between the phone and a case,so nothing gets scratches.
I always used Xtremeguard for my LG G3 , but not for the note5 now.

I just emailed them i will see what they say.
I had issues with my wife's note 4 screen protector , they refunded my money and said just to write return to sender on the package.
It's the 2.5D glass the note 4 and 5 use, the edges of the screen are curved, not flat. When you find one the doesn't do that it won't coder the edge is the screen.
I really hate to pay alot for a screen protector. Was hoping XtremeGuard would work for me like it did on my LG g3

Interestingly, that screen protector actually says, "2.5D" on the packaging. Ii need to google that phrase, I've never heard of it, but that would be nice to know if screen protector manufacturers could tell us if they account for the curved screen or not.

The 2.5D Jettech is talking about means the edge of the screen protector is also rounded off so it doesn't have a sharp edge.

Actually you want the rounded edge so it isn't sharp, some aren't 2.5D and they can slice your finger if you run it along the edge of it. I can tell you there are 0 glass protectors that cover the entire screen including the curved edge. They didn't have it for the 4 and they won't have it for 5 either.

I was saying it's a bummer that the screen protector is not curved. Not that it was a bummer that they rounded the edges. Just to clarify.
That is really unfortunate though. The screen protector I have barely covers my screen and has a bad halo. i can't imagine having a screen protector that only goes to to where the halo starts.

I have this screen protector and my phone looks nothing like this. I agree it doesn't cover 100% of the screen which I love because I use full body cases (supercase unicorn) and it sits perfectly in that case. I wonder if you got a lemon. Have you tried reseating the protector?
I used xtremegaurd with very little halo.
pics not good...but you get the idea
Update email
Refund
I just got 2 of these in the mail. It came in generic packaging, doesn't even say xtremeguard anywhere on it. Front of the plastic box just says "real tempered glass screen protector." I don't even think these are made for the Note 5. They are probably for the note 4. mine look like mrpickem's as they don't have the small round cutout inside the top cutout to account for the large front camera lens.
i found a thread somewhere else on xda and someone said xtremeguard and just been buying whatever tempered glass protectors they can buy in china and sending out various brands. think i'm gonna ask for a refund.
I got mine today. Very disappointed, the front camera and sensor area wasn't big enough. I should of figured when the glass came in a package with an iPhone on it.

Actually I'm fairly happy with mine. You can't expect much for $4 IMO. If some of the better makers come up with a highly regarded unit I'll switch...otherwise I can roll with this for awhile.

The problem is that the Redmi Note 4 has a slightly curved screen, no cheap tempered glass would cover all of the screen, unless there's a specially designed curved tempered glass for this phone, which not gonna be cheap, like this $55 one from Zagg for the Galaxy S7 Edge: http://www.zagg.com/us/en_us/invisi...xy-s7-edge/glass-curve-samsung-galaxy-s7-edge
Personally I use a no-brand $1 tempered glass, cheapest one I could find, because in my experience with a tempered glass protectors, I would usually dent, chip, or break them in 3-4 months time (that's why I ordered 3 of them in one go). But with that said, I always wondered how is the quality on the Nillkin, as they sell their tempered glass for almost $10.
Does anyone know, which protection glass xiaomi used if any for redmi note 4? Thnx.
Hi All,
I received this Tempered glass screen protector as a gift upon purchase of my phone.
As you can see from the pics attached it is around 3mm short of the edge all the way round, I understand that you need to take into account the 2.5 curved edge but it doesn't even come close to that edge.
I haven't put it on yet as it feels quite thick & I would think it feels quite bad when your finger drops off the edge.
Can someone else that has received a glass for the RN4 upload pics of theirs & compare the gaps, I'm wondering this one is wrong & not for the RN4.
Edit:
Added pic without the Tpu cover on the phone for comparison.

You think yours is bad check mine out!! Messaged the seller (via ebay) and they sent a new one in the post, only problem is that its exactly the same, so now ive got two screen protectors that dont fit! Ive a feeling its for the Redmi 4 and not the Note 4 which would make sense as the label looks like its 'Redmi 4' but it should be 'Redmi Note 4'.

Thinking of ordering this one as its 'edge to edge' and so should at least fit across the whole screen. Or failing that just a film plastic one would do. The whole 2.5 glass thing is cool but a disaster with screen protection, I had the exactly same issue with the galaxy s7. I actually thought the regular S7 would be less problematic that the S7 edge but i was wrong.

No its ok, ive got two and will just stick them together and they'll cover the screen lol :laugh:
That one you linked looks decent, maybe the soft edge will help when using with cases, as I know with the S7, there were the same kind of issues. Like the standard screen protectors didnt cover the screen properly but the full screen ones popped up when used with certain types of cases, so the soft edge might help.
Lol, no chuck em my way, I have an Xperia Z 10.1" screen I need covering & I can use my left overs from my OPPO also.

I don't think they can make it any bigger because of the 2.5d roll away of glass that slowly tapers off, that would make a gap underneath I think.

It's the annoying thing about 2.5D displays, although it does feel/look nice and smooth, it seems well fitting glass screen protectors are impossible to get/make. I would gladly go back to a flat edged screen. In fact 2.5D glass and bezeless screens are two trends/features that I would be happy enough to see the back of. Im still waiting on some film and glass protectors arriving, just cheap ones of eBay so not holding out much hope of them being good, but I would be happy with just a plastic film protector just to try to stop minor scratches.

My Monarch case for my Note 8 is shipping! I'll see if i can give a quick review once i get it in my hands. Looks awesome on the site:
https://urbanarmorgear.com/collecti...s/products/monarch-series-samsung-note-8-case
Update 1: Sorry guys I've been so busy of late I completely forgot about this post. On the positive side it gives me more time with the case. If you've had a UAG case in the past the Monarch is just a better built version of their previous cases. It looks fantastic, it feels great, it's not a fingerprint magnet like I was fearing, and it's thin and light. I don't know how UAG will handle the 10 year warranty if there is ever a need to take advantage of it but it seems sturdy enough to last at least 2 years. I can take pictures of the device at a later time but like all of the UAG cases it fits like a glove.
I won't be applying a screen protector until I find one with little to no complaints. My note5 did fine in the 2 years without one and I don't see a big need for one with even better glass.

I believe I saw somewhere that you need to put on your Dome Glass perfectly in-order for the UAG cases to work. Not 100% though

recieved my case now.. its bit loose at the bottom
I have a plyo and it's a bit loose at the bottom. I think it's because the large cutout for the Spen that weakens that area.
Hi guys. Do you have any screen protectors installed onto your M20Ps? Please put here brands of protectors that you have installed and an info about fingerprint sensor working/not working after installation. I have this installed

It sits perfectly, no air bubles, it covers an entire screen and an in display fingerprint sensor works perfectly too. There are tons of instructions on youtube on how to install it properly and it is not hard at all. One thing you must remebmer is to cure it for about 10 seconds first, then wipe off any glue from the edges and then cure properly for about a minute or so. I can honestly say this is by far the best tempered glass screen protector for M20P
Does it work with spigen cover or other covers? I really like the spigen rugged armor but it makes me glass protector pop off..

Yes it should. I have tried a cover from Huawei and two other cases, one of them being Alogy Carbon and no issues. I've seen a rugged armor case is shaped pretty much the same as Alogy so it shoud be ok.

Do you know if this can be found on a international site or has another name I can search for? Wanted to check if someone in Norway had it stocked before I ordered abroad.
I have wasted my money on some sxxx full glass protectors. The best one that I am having now is from a Taiwanese brand Hoda. It's a UV glued screen protector. You need to have some tools or need someone to do it. Smooth to touch, stain-proof, and no bubbles. There's some little space left for protective cases, but no gaps after they are installed. Five diffetent cases have been tried with, including the original one, all fit. I am very satisfied.

Hi,
Despite not having the best score in terms of user feedback, I am very happy with this one :

(spigen) case friendly and no major impact on fingerprint sensor.
This one is perfect :

My own personal opinion... keep the factory fitted screen protector on for as long as possible.
(Glass protectors dont work well with Ultrasonic firgerprint reader).

Mine came with one. I spent days trying to figure out why the fingerprint reader barely worked. Then I removed the screen protector which turned out to be just a thin plastic sheet. Now awaiting a TPU screen protector.
They all come with a fitted screen protector
The one that comes with it, preinstalled.

Strange, my fingerprint reader works first time, every time with the screen protector that came with it installed. If you had problems with that, I'd suggest the same will apply with any other you put on your phone.

I use esr. Cheap and works very well. No issues with finger print.
I am using the Tauri flexible TPU screen protector, have found it good up to now, easy to fit with no bubbles when i done it and fingerprint still works fine.

Skinomi will always be the best choice when it comes to screen protection

TPU protector arrived and was installed and the fingerprint reader still works fine without even being reprogrammed. Not sure if different factory installed protectors are installed in different markets but the one I peeled off was cheap thin flexible plastic.

The US versions did not come with a factory installed screen protector.
IMO the Whitestone Dome is the best you can get the the S21 Ultra.

Even im looking for some quality and reliable screen protectors ,but could'nt possibly find any screen protectors that does its tasks. positively if i find any i will share my experience in this thread.
Used the uv gel glass one. Works great with fingerprint reader. Got from Amazon half price of Whitestone.
Amazon.com: (2 Pack) amFilm 3D Curved Tempered Glass Screen Protector for Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G 6.8 Inch, Fully Compatible with UltraSonic Fingerprint Scanner, UV Gel Application
Amazon.com: (2 Pack) amFilm 3D Curved Tempered Glass Screen Protector for Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G 6.8 Inch, Fully Compatible with UltraSonic Fingerprint Scanner, UV Gel Application

Install was easy. Might want to use a few drops from the second gel tube on the first install. That was the only thing that was a tad short on the install.
