Does anyone know of a reputable and cheap seller of screen protectors for Nexus S i9020, in the UK? I am suspicious of eBay results but perhaps I should not? Links/Names would be appreciated.

I suggest eBay. Got mine, an XtremeGuard protector which is a vinyl type protector (from user xtreme_guard). First one I got was damaged during shipping, too much weight was put onto the envelope containing it and it got marked by the application tool and he sent me another one free of charge. Best protector I ever bought and definitely a good ebay experience.

Lol I used to use a screen protector then I took it off because the two end wouldn't fit properly since the nexus has a curved screen but so far no scratches I actually had scratches on my screen protector :banghead:

I've had my phone for over a year...and I'm rough on it. It's always in my pocket everywhere I go, and I work at construction sites at least two days a week. After 14 months of owning it I have only gotten one tiny, barely noticeable scratch on the screen.
Don't waste your money...screen protectors aren't necessary with gorilla glass

Well I'll be damned!!! this whole time I thought I had gorilla glass! I have no idea why not. I'm not sure where I got the idea that it had gorilla glass, but now I'm just REALLY disappointed after over a year of thinking I had it

Have faith. There are no scratches. Gorilla glass isn't the only sturdy/scratch-resistant glass in the world.

I was under the same impression when I bought the phone too.
Gorilla glass or not though, the biggest screen scratcher isn't rusty nails or whatever gimmicky thing they show you in the phone screen protector ads but rather pocket sand. Any sand you have in your pockets will DESTROY the phone over time. I've seen some phones become completely hazy, including ones equipped with Gorilla glass from people working more physical jobs.
Mine has a protector, but it's for the OCD rather than anything else. As long as you put your phone in a pocket of it's own, empty of any debris, and you don't rub it face first on a table, it should be fine.
Hey guys i bought my phone like 5 months ago and a week later i bought a plastic screen protector.
Today i took it cause i didnt like it anymore. I have like 3 little scratches that are hard to see. Now the touch screen feels so smoth but i have a question. How resistant is gorilla glass? Have anyone never used plastic screen protector on your moto g2?

Use tempered glass screen guard. It will be as smooth as the gorilla glass.

All the best
Tempered glass feels just like gorilla glass, personally I've scratched the gorilla glass 2 and tempered glasses, small hard to notice scratches but the sand can scratch any screen

Same here. I've had mine for 7 months, dropped it on the floor, concrete, and everywhere you can imagine and no scratches. One thing that helps is the Tudia case I purchased on Amazon. It cushions very well in a drop and the slightly raised edge around the screen keeps the screen from contacting anything in case of a drop.
I'm using my phone for 5 months now without any protection, and I don't have any scratch on the glass.

You dont see it when the screen is on ans u are looking it directly, try when its off and make the light reflect on your screen then u will see them.
I got small ones before puting the plastic screen protector on now in using without it and yeah it feels so much better.

Same here .Don´t drop it,if you have it in your pocket (better in your jacket,not your trousers) be sure that there´s nothing else in it, handle with care.
I like the feeling of the screen without protector but you have to be a bit careful then.

Yeah I do the same... I never dropped the phone, I always have it in my pocket and I always make sure that nothing else is in my pocket.
It's a low budget phone with a great glass on the screen, I'm not going to ruin the user experience with screen protectors..
Actually I used my Galaxy S2 in the same way and I only got some mini scratches on it. Gorilla Glass FTW.
Hey people, I was wondering: how does it hold up against scratches? I have the blue, with the ridged back, but so far afraid to use it without a case... How do you use yours? Does is scratch easily? What about the screen?

It uses gorilla glass 5, which scratched very easily on my S9. I had small scratches after a day with no case on the S9. I imagine this phone will be no different.

I feel the same way. Unfortunately. I am curious about the back though...
Back seems to hold up (maybe non touch sensitive glass is easier to make scratch resistant) the front 2 scratches in the first week... And I used a soft pouch until proper accessories come out.
Got a skin on the back and a crappy plastic screen protector for now.

Allright thanks for the answer, so it seems I have to buy smth for the screen after all..
I have some scratches on mine. I am very careful with it, no coins etc. So I will definitely be using a case with the replacement phone I am getting tomorrow for display issues.

I do wonder though, if it scratches the olephobic coating or the actual glass is scratched. A colleague of mine has the s7 until last week without a protector and said screen was always perfect. But it got fingerprinty as hell.
Wonder if one of those nano liquid coatings would smooth it out. I have accidental damage insurance so if that works I would rid of the scratches with that.
You might have a point there with the coating. I have noticed that as well on my samsung phones.
I tried that nano liquid, but havent noticed much diferrence though.
I've tried several screen protectors and they all stop fingerprint recognition working!

I guess I got lucky. I got a case and a tempered glass screen protector for free with my purchase in Taiwan. Finger print scanner works perfect. I should have checked what the brand was. It was a flagship Huawei store, so obviously they knew what they were putting on there.

See...that it why they buy iphone or smsng, cause they dont mess up important stuff... You mean the glass ones? Or the foils?
I am challenging those that think Mate 20 Pro uses Gorilla Glass (I have read the 1 or 2 reviews that state this), and it's not listed in the Gorilla Glass website. Also worried about scratches I reached out to Huawei AU and received the following:
To answer your inquiry, this phone uses aluminosilicate glass for both front and back which is also Scratch resistant and is composed of aluminum, oxygen, silicon, and several other positively charged ions.

I am seeing the above noted comments and "scratch resistant" or not, it's obvious this phone needs a case and screen protector.
I wish it had Gorilla Glass 6!
No case... Back skin and plastic screen protector
Has anyone found any good screen protectors or tempered glass? I dont like using a phone without having the screen protected.

I ordered one weeks ago, it still hasn't made it to north america yet. so slow. But I'll let you know how it is once it gets here.
I bought the 2 pack of Orzero for ASUS ROG Phone ZS600KL Tempered Glass Screen Protector, 2.5D Arc Edges 9 Hardness HD. Got it in a few days, but it doesn't cover the screen 100%. A few millimeters short on each side. There isn't an official one out there yet, correct?

Correct, there is no official one. At least at the moment. I ordered this one https://www.amazon.ca/Tempered-Prot...id=1545150596&sr=8-18&keywords=rog+phone+case
Is that the same one as yours? Besides being a few mm short, how is it?

It's not bad. I didn't have a screen protector on my previous phone so I'm sure what to look for. I've only used one of the two provided. Was easy to apply. But after a couple of weeks, I can see some air bubbles forming on the side.
Should've mentioned, it was from Amazon. This is the one I have: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07J2XN9TN/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_G8pgCbTFA4Z96

thanks for the reply. :good:
hmm getting some mixed reviews on amazon...
I used to use a film on my htc desire z, but it peeled off after a couple of months. I too had air bubbles get in, and then eventually dust and dirt, and then it lost its adhesion and became opaque. Kept it on for quite a while afterward haha.
as for this phone, it looks like the one I ordered is a little larger. I hope its equally easy to apply. I'll let you know how mine is whenever the hell it shows up. ugh.
I ordered two of these:
https://shop.brando.com/brando-work...tor-asus-rog-phone-black_p19902c2453d008.html
... and they arrived the day after I dropped my phone and broke the screen.. which was a bit unlucky but later that same day my girlfriend dropped hers and it definitely saved her phone from the same fate as mine - so I guess we can consider ourself semi-lucky at least =)
However, This is a very slippery phone =)
I got mine today finally, and put it on. its not edge to edge, but pretty close. about 1mm top and bottom, and .5mm on the sides I'd guess. flexible, completely transparent, and can be reapplied, as I inevitably found out. its looks good, feels fine, and hides most of my micro scratches. Plus it also has:
- Adhesive the whole screen, no rainbown moire
- Protector your Asus Rog Phone's screen from scratch or crash
It was hard to get it on without any dust between them, but I did it. in another universe because I have two tiny pieces in the dead center, one is rainbowy, and the other is dark. I need a room with cleaner air. every time I wipe the screen, more dust falls on it. I'll live with it for now but at least I can reapply it later if I want.
I feel a bit safer now, though I would still like a more rugged leather case.
if you have any more questions let me know :good:
EDIT: I broke it trying to clean off the dust... I'll have to be a little more careful next time. I've left it on for now, and ordered 2 new ones. I liked the way this one has its own bezel which hides everything under them, but I also need one fast so I also ordered the only one I could find on Amazon Prime. Plus one of them is explosion-proof!

Where did you get it from? Amazon?
Hi guys. I need a heavy duty glass protector for my Rog Phone. I bought this one on Amazon about 6 months ago and has been a good one, but adter playing a lot, it has become ruggish and my fingers are no longer gliding on the screen.
This is the one I bought : Supershieldz for Asus Rog Phone Tempered Glass Screen Protector, Anti Scratch, Bubble Free
Is this like a normal wear or is there any option that can endure heavy use?
Can anyone suggest good and affordable screen guard? I have tried uv glue ones but are not working i am getting bubbles on second day after applying.
Anyone who has better experience with any other type of screen guard please suggest. My range is around 500-600₹

Perfect thin screen protection which feels like a naked screen and the tool for easy mounting is attached: https://m.aliexpress.com/item/40012...otWeQDSqTdJxTw1640591550395&browser_id=&is_c=
Thanks. I will look into it. But normally i don't purchase from aliexpress. Too much shipping time.
The same quality from India but without the assembling tool: https://www.amazon.in/ZARALA-vivo-X...716&sprefix=vivo+x70+pro+plus+,aps,107&sr=8-3
The price is good enough to take two to have a better chance to put it right.

Were you able to install the glass screen protectors without any issues and does the new screen protector cause any lost of touch sensitivity or fingerprint scanner sensitivity?
Mine UV glue is working perfect, no buble, almost 2.5 months now and I am happy with it, UV glue one is the best for side angle displays, Just try with different venders, experiance of the person who put it also matters.
