Hello people from XDA
I bought the Oneplus a few days ago and i will receive it this weekend, I already bought the Spigen Rugged Armor case but I'm not sure about which is the best option with the screen protection for my Soft gold version
I'm doubting about the type of the protector, if is tempered glass or a plastic one. In my old Galaxy S5 i used a Clear-Coat and was awesome but I know the tempered glass is better for falls but looks quite strange because it doesn't cover all the screen and the models that cover it completely I don't like it because have a color on the glass.
I'm searching for different option and this are some models if you can give an advise I will be grateful.
Clear-Coat Original
LiQuid Shield(IQ Shield)
Yootech
Nilkin
Thanks in advance, greetings from Venezuela(sorry if i write something wrong I'm not a english speaker)
I buyed two screen protectors on aliexpress but they don't cover all the screen... I'm searching for a new screen protector and I think TGSP is not possible for our device. I think I will buy some screen protectors like IQ shield but I need the ship in Italy. Also Skinomi seems a good producer but they ship for free only in USA.
Need a tempered glass (Perfectly Fitting) for Indian version - 4GB/64GB Model.
i live in indonesia, i can help you to get it. i already use the colored one, the special tempered glass which make your device look almost bezel-less

look up tempered glass for redmi note 4x on aliexpress
This looks promising
Everyone says that a product on AliExpress called :
Redmi Note 4 3D Curved soft Edge Carbon Fiber Full Coverage Sceen Tempered Glass Screen Protector PE Film For xiaomi Redmi Note4
is a good fit. Even the reviews seem to be legit. It looks like it has a plastic edge around the central glass that fits the curved screen of the redmi 4. Only problem is the delivery time.
I searched on Amazon India and found these items which looks very similar to the above, in design and price. Have any of you tried it and can recommend it? they are called:
Case U Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Full Coverage Tempered Glass Screen Protector
BlueArmor Edge to Edge Full Coverage Tempered Glass Screen Guard Protector for Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 (Black)
check this one

It's a tpu screen protector from lokal market. Edge to edge covered. Good but not so protective like tempered glass. It is like screen guard but meterial is soft tpu.
Here is the image. 220 INR.

Purchased it from local market
In amazon. Bit pricey
http://www.amazon.in/CASSIEY-Temper...psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=od_aui_detailpages00
Perfect for Redmi Note 4 Indian variant.
All the threads here about the various screen protectors (whitestone etc .)for the note 8 contains information about the product whose availability is limited to region like US and UK . Note 8 is recently made a lot of sale during the festive season in India and we will see more of note 8 users from India.
So far no review can be found on internet which can guide the indian consumers to make a purchase.The screen protector available on amazon have barely any reviews and those which have , have it poor.
I would like to ask the indian users to share their reviews of their screen protector and cases based on their use so far. Also if possible please proide the info necessary to get to the product page.
I myself am in need of a good screen protector and case which is available in India and dont want to pay the price equivalent to the cost of another budget mobile phone
I hope this thread gets a decent number of replies and feedbacks and can save a lot of trouble and money to note 8 users
Same for thailand
Hey did you find anything good yet? Im in the same boat and still havn't peeled off the flimsy screen guard that comes pre applied with the phone lol dont want to remove until i can find a replacement. I might end up buying something cheap (sub Rs500~), reviews on amazon seem fake so that doesn't help at all. Whitestone dome glass can be imported but that would cost around $70 (incl shipping)from ebay.com, but that price is too much for tempered glass.
I feel a bit safer knowing that the 1 year screen replacement offer from samsung has us covered.
Just use a cheap full Glass one and loca glue . Works as good as white stone for much cheaper.
for the edge series all the tempered glass that are available is worthless.... cos with full tempered glass most of the cases won't fit and also touch sensitivity will be very less for both full and case friendly tempered glasses... go for normal screen protector with some military grade mobile case....it should work fine in most cases.
After a lot of R&D / going through various reviews, settled on a regular screen protector & the Spigen tough armor case for the SG Note 8. Though the phone tends to feel a tad bit bulky with the Spigen case, it provides excellent protection. As for the screen protector, it was luckily compatible with the Spigen case, S-pen works well, & is holding good so far (about a month now !).
Wondering if you guys are using the phone with or without screen protection? I just got my phone and just love the way it the screen feels without anything else on it. Will the screen get scratches easily without protection? I'm not sure what kind of glass this is.
no matter which glass is, sometimes get scratches... no one screen 100% scratch protected...

Yeah, i'm using a tempered screen protector
I'm using without screen protector. No scratches, but I take care of my phones well. (Except for when I dropped metal on my last phone and broke part of the screen, but surely I won't do that twice)
The Mi Mix phones are very prone to screen breakage, so take any and all precautions.
I shattered two screens on the Mi Mix, one that the digitizer stopped working (a 3.5 foot drop), had film type screen protector.
I tried the Mi mix 2, and used a glass type screen protector. The phone had the original Mi Mix 2 case, and had a drop, the screen protector broke... sheesh.
I now have the Mi Mix 2s, and I ordered an aftermarket case that surround the top edge of the screen creating a lip (the phone laying flat on a flat surface, the screen will not touch).
I bought liquid screen protector, and gave the phone screen 5 treatments over a 12 hour period.
I also installed a glass screen protector while I wait for the 5D screen protector to arrive in the mail.
I am compromising less on the case this time, and going for more protection. In the past, I have used the oem case, keeping everything slim and compact. But because these phones are not easy to service (parts are hard to come buy, and tech are not all capable of working on these phones), I am waiting on the newest case to arrive. I went with a clear tpu bumper type case, that has added protection on the corners, comes with metal button backing for magnetic holders, and a ring holder.
Screen protector will help, but a proper case is mandatory.
Cheers,

The case, for me anyways (I had on a Mi Mix) is not enough protection in drop. I had THAT type of case, on my Mi Mix and the screen and digitizer broke from a 3.0' drop onto tile floor, hit the corner of the phone screen (it was a dead drop fall, not a toss type fall) rendering the phone completely inoperable.
The Mi Mix is / was a heavy phone, and the Mix 2 & Mix 2S are no light weights either.
I have to go with something that has a little more corner edge protection (a fall landing on the corners is a no mercy fall, it will probably sustain damage), whereas if the phone lands on it's edge flush there is considerably less damage sustained.
I wish TECH21 would of made a case for the Mi Mix 2s, there suspension absorption design is second to none, and they look amazing to boot.
Cheers
The problem with all the screen protectors i bought so far is that they all seem to be build for the mix 2, not the mix 2s. And the display of the 2s is slightly larger so there is no 100% percentage coverage in any of them. Have the phone for about 2 weeks now, already changed 4 glass protector, all of them suck because they are a little bit smaller than the screen or the roundness of the corners is smaller than the actual screen. Awaiting for alien surface to possibly launch a protector dedicated to mix 2s. Until than i'll rather risk and use the phone with no protector than use it with a ugly as hell one.

I was talking about protectors made for mix 2 being sold as compatible fir mix 2s and they just aren't. I should know sice I exauasted all the mix 2s variants being sold in my country and for the sake of experimenting i bought 2 models for the mix 2 hoping they'll fit somehow the mix 2s. Well they don't. I am still hopeless in finding a screen protector that doesn't look an feel like crap for this phone. At least one bought directly from vendors in Romania wherei live. Never had this kind of problem with the mi5 that i previously used. And i feel reluctant i paying 15 dollars for shipping from Amazon or eBay since i have no way of knowing those are any better than the ones i bought so far. So if anybody has a good protector with the link from where it was bought... Feel free to help. Thanks v

With installation applicator, I can install the screen protector on my Mix 2s so easily. And the quality of the screen protector is decent so far. Would recommend it.
Since you are asking the link, and you are from Romania, you may want to order it from Amazon UK. Here is the link - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07C7115LH

Thank you for taking the time to post this!
This is by far the best screen protector for mix2s i've seen. Thanks again for your trouble to post it!
Meanwhile i got this
https://aliensurface.ro/produs/xiao...-hd.html#/26-alege_acoperirea_telefoane-ecran
It's made by some Romanian company but it's an interesting concept. It looks great on the phone, it feels great, unfortunately it's just plastic not glass, so I fear it has zero protection against drops, but other than that it's a great product. And no, the phone was not damaged in any way while I had to spray the liquid on the screen to install it.
Without a case? TG(Tempered Glass) protector is a must have.
With the default case, one could get away with a plastic protector. I would personally still get a TG one though.
With a case that offers good protection, a protector might not be required.
Disclaimer: That is my opinion, and should not be taken as facts.
I had a mix 2 before this and let me tell you, you will get scratches no matter how careful you are. My gf bought an iPhone 8 plus at the same time I got mi mix 2 and hers looked much much worse, but you do get fine scratches over time. The ceramic on the back is really tough though.
So I got a mi8 and a few weeks ago I noticed that under blacklight while the screen was off, the center of the screen didn't have the same shade as the rest, but only under blacklight. then I bought a new screen protector and now under certain lighting or when I tilt it I can see this(picture below). anybody has any idea what might be the problem?
I have too

Thanks. That was my first thought but I wanted to make sure before I take it out and buy a more expensive one
I'm pretty sure it is the protector. I had 2 or 3 like this on my mi6. for mi 8 I went for nillkin and no such prob. it is quite a pain to install and cracks easily as I read on the web. gl
"100% Original Spigen Xiaomi Mi 8 Screen Protector Glas.tR Slim Full Coverage Tempered Glass Black " similar price and style than the Nillkin but imho was easier to apply
