Otao Tempered Glass Screen Protector - Note 8

Received my OTAO Tempered Glass for my Note 8 Today. The Product arrived quickly and was packaged well.
The Package Included : (1) Installation Tray, (1) Glass Protector, (1) Cleaning Cloth, (1) Alcohol Wipe, (1) Sticker for dust/lint removal,
(1) Instruction Card W/Photos, (1) Thank You Card with Contact info for OTAO.
You can purchase them from here : https://www.amazon.com/Tempered-Pro...=1517931940&sr=8-3&keywords=otao+glass+note+8
The un-boxing was fun, was able to lay out everything and see what all came with the product, packaging felt premium and was well tailored to a Note 8 customer. The process to get the tray over device and screen protector on was slightly awkward and honestly if you have a steady hand you could install it without the tray IMO. I used the tray and the protector was installed perfectly center and square so at least there was 0 risk in getting it crooked or anything.
I was really worried about going to full glass protector on a infinity type screen. The curved glass has been hell to cover with anything but liquid glass (that provided 0 real protection) and not interfere with touch / operation.
The screen protector has glue 360* around the glass so there is not any movement or feeling of it being loose or poorly seated. I read other reviews where the glass had become loose or cracked and I can attest that this should NOT be the case. The only way its breaking is a drop or accident that resulted in a good bit of force onto the screen/glass. This protector IS case friendly as well, I tried it with my OtterBox as well as my UAG and neither case lifted or pushed the screen protector in any way!
Overall im really glad I tried the OTAO branded protector, as all the others do NOT have a 360* seal or the ability to work with many cases on the market, and OTAO has both and a really good price!
Check out the photos i took so you can see what to expect! The case in the photos is the UAG Clear Smoked Case btw!
Pros:
Actual Tempered Glass @ a Fair Price ( Under 15$ Shipped )
Has adhesive around the entire glass ( 360 sealed )
Touch response was unaffected / no gaps or air
Cons:
Tray is a little awkward to use, I would say try to do it without if you feel comfortable.
Adhesive around edges seems to be grabbing some lint / hair over time, kinda annoying
Screen has "Dot Matrix" and is slightly visible and certain angles.

I had one like this, another brand, it broke easy. So my question is, did you break it yet?

Mine popped off in 3 days

I did not break it, i had it on my device for 30 days, it was really a decent glass protector, but like me2151 said i did notice the adhesive wasnt nearly as strong as i would have liked.
Otherwise it was a nice all glass protector.
I did not like i could see the dot matrix, and the installer tray was garbage.
Otherwise at the cheaper price compared to the white dome, and seeing people complain about it at 60$ + , its worth the investment for a cheaper one that may last 1/4 of the time but be easily replaced and nearly 1/6 the cost.

I'm on my second one. Not because it broke, but because it popped off when I dropped my note and I got dust beneath. Finally changed it yesterday after weeks with the dust. I know I prolly have micro scratches. I really like this one. But, oh well...

Interesting thoughts.
I am getting a new Note 8 tomorrow and this is in my shopping cart. I have been wondering about this as I have heard traditional screen protectors don't work well on the rounded glass.

So how did you like the OTAO screen protector?
Sent from my Galaxy Note 8 using XDA Labs

use nano Liquid Protector

hello
all know that its hard to fined good TG or screen protector for redmi note 4-4x that's fit good with no gap or air in edge
so i need to know that if any use nano Liquid Protector for there device and any tips and info about that i will be rly grateful

No. Forget the idea. Liquid nano screen protectors are bull**** and huge scams. Believe me. Tempered glass is still your best choice and gives you the most protection even though there is a little gap at the side of the screen. Liquid protectors are fake. How is a little gel supposed to protect your phone by rubbing it on your screen creating a thin, oily layer? It can't. I did make a test though. Some pretty girls made a huge presentation and tried to sell me liquid protector. They even showed off by hitting the screen of an iPhone with a metallic object pretty hard that at least should have nicked the screen if not broken it into pieces. It was suspicious and I made a complete and throughout search. They use an iphone that comes with gorilla glass that almost unbreakable. No wonder why it didn't break. I bought a new Note 4X SD with 64 gb so I asked them to put the protector on my old phone, the 16 GB MTK and hit it with the metallic object just like they did to the iPhone. The silly girls did it and my phone screen broke completely. That's it. Never trust wonder protectors.

Actually liquid protectors will not make your screen shatter proof but will only add a layer of protection that will fade overtime around 2-3mos

Tried it on a couple of phones and more than once. The coating lasts about 3 days max.

I had one put on to my Galaxy Note 3 when they first arrived in the Philippines. One application (drop from a bottle) cost me $9 (a comparable tempered glass protector cost as little as $2). The bottle itself costs $16.
I noted where previous micro-scratches were before I applied the protector (one just above the G on the "SAMSUNG" logo.)
SIX DAYS after paying through the nose for that liquid stuff, another scratch appeared on the phone, this time near the menu button.
After that, I returned to using tempered glass protectors and never looked back.

Screen Protectors?

With the rounded side edges, this will not be an easy phone to fit screen protectors for. Please post if you find any others.
This is what I have found so far. All ship from China and take 4-6 weeks for delivery.

ZAGG InvisibleShield Ultra VisionGuard+ Screen Protector from Verizon
Great screen protector! Fits perfect with a case and includes a small one for the secondary screen. Easy install. Would def recommend

Whitestone Dome glass
Whitestone has a screen protector for the LG wing have anyone use Whitestone before any good?

I use Mi 10 Pro hydrogel screen protector . Just got a screen protector without the hole for the selfie camera. Cost around $1 per protector.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08L78S31X/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I got this one and fits perfectly and no bubbles after I installed it and left it overnight

Just got these, installed and now I cannot get my fingerprint to register. I deleted it retrained it with the screen protector on and still no luck.

Got these. Typically I steer clear of the screen protector film. I generally always go with the tempered glass screen protector. But since the fingerprint wouldn't work with the tempered glass and tried this film. See link below. Works great feels smooth like glass. Provides better grip also. I put one on the screen as well as on the back of the phone. I can open and close it with one hand now because there's a little extra grip on the screen. Fingerprint also works with these.

THX for the link, just ordered.
I typically don't use screen protectors at all, just the liquid sealers.
I'm actually more interested in using to cover the back of the phone.
Did you cut out a hole for the cameras,& if so, how did you go about doing so?
I plan on using my Spigen case to trace out & cut w/an X-Acto knife.
Considered getting a skin for the Galaxy S20/S20 + (closest I could find, dimension wise), but, it'd still need some alterations, so, I skipped that idea.
If anyone finds a bodyskin for the Wing, please post a link in this thread.

I cut a notch around all three cameras. I figured it would at least protect the back of the phone when I get my case. For now hopefully it'll help it not get scratched
Front screen, bottom screen, and back have the film on them... Liking it.

Has anyone found a tempered glass screen protector that the the finger print sensor works through?

I ordered a Spigen case from Amazon, but decided to upgrade to a better one I found at a T-Mobile store. I have AT&T and it didn't matter at all in regards to the accessories I got today. They also had a screen protector which I purchased as well. It's pricey compared to amazon, it has more support on the sides than the Spigen one does. The screen protector I bought wasn't an Invisishield, it's a Case Mate and it's working very well for me. Just wanted to thrown that out there in case it cam help anyone.

Is the Case-Mate a tempered glass screen protector or a film?
Thanks for sharing

There is a tempered glass screen protector on Amazon. It's made by UniqueMe. Only sticks at the edges, but fits well and wraps around the curved screen. Feels great to the touch. And touchscreen sensitivity works extremely well. Optically, I'd give it an 8 out of 10.
When installing, you need to line it up with the bottom edge of the screen so that there is a gap at the top. This is needed to let the light dimming sensor see out. Also, it is quite fragile. I dropped my phone into a soft bath mat and the screen protector cracked.
Already on my third UniqueMe. Fingerprint sensing works decently. You have to get the hang of it. If possible, definitely re-enroll your finger prints after installing the protector. Works much better that way.

I bought 2 from you. I like the idea but a hard rubber material would be much better than the plastic. Both of mine have broken from 1st drops. They did protect the front screen though.

Question Carrier s21 ultra factory screen protector??? 🤷

I've got the att s21 ultra and it doesn't seem to have a factory screen protector.. it has a pull off film with a lil corner tab for easy pull off ..
i believe the ones that come directly from samsung have an actual screen protector.. like the jerry rig everything video.
mine is from at&t

I think there may be a real screen protector underneath that pull off film with the pull tab. Maybe you can pull back a little until the front facing camera to check if there is indeed a screen protector below.

Mine come with a factory protector below the pull off film. It's really well fitted and hard to notice at first, I couldn't work out why my tempered glass protector wasn't seating properly. All the videos I've seen didn't mention it was there. There's a good chance some have simply overlooked its placement.
For the record, my print wouldn't register through both the factory and tempered glass protectors. Might have worked if I'd noticed before hand and took the factory one off first. The tempered one was ugly anyway and had a really obvious hole for the print reader, so I took it off and chucked it. Good use of shipping costs to NZ. Fun times. Hopefully this helps someone else.
Unlocked international model with the Exynos.

Mine came also with an screen protector.
You think fingerprint works so bad because of the protector? because its not that good

I got mine from Bell in Canada and mine has a screen protector but that's exactly what I was thinking, I remember the one on my S20 Ultra being pretty good and I was shocked to see they didn't put on on the S21 Ultra, until I then noticed there IS one and it's just put on so well I didn't even notice it was there, I could just BARELY see a ridge at the edges of the display where it doesn't perfectly line up with the rounded top corners of the display

If you see scratches at a level 2...
The films that came with the S10 series were OK. I really don't call 'em screen protectors though.
Tempered glass is good but curved edges kind of kills it for me. One thing I like about my 12 Pro Max is the flat screen glass. Put a $7 screen glass on it and can't even tell its there. 3 months later still looks new. Plastic not so much.
I remember some review samples of the Note 20 Ultra had the same film as the S10 series. My Note 20 Ultra from Samsung (unlocked) did not, however. It has held up well, over the months and I cannot detect any signs of microscratches in sunlight so that's good.
My S20 Ultra DID have the plastic film on it but my border collie decided to pick it up and carry it in his mouth and the screen film had some marks on it (luckily nothing else LOL) and I ripped it off.

S21 Ultra unlocked direct from Samsung and I just see the cheapo film one on it

That is what everyone is getting. It is not a true screen protector. It is just a film which many people leave it on.

US S21s don't come with a screen protector like the S20s and Note 10s even though other markets like Canada do.

Well if you need a clear screen protector then you can try gadgetshieldz screen protector. I've been using their screen protector for more than 3 months and the quality is still good.

Screen protector (tempered glass)

Hello
Learned in the past my smartphone often lands on the ground.
Are you using / can recommend a good tempered glass for that model?
Wonder if it brings a good protection from cracks at all.

You need a case with good corner and face plant protection (flat surfaces). The case is the first and best defense against damage.
I use the Zizo Bolt on my 10+. Zero damage after around a dozen 2-4 foot drops onto concrete.

This variant includes a tempered glass protector which you may need to leave off. My variant comes with none.

Already using Spigen Ultra Hybrid. I'm rather lf protection from cracks caused by falling which i heard of glass is better than plastic.

it does come up smaller than the total screen (so it fits with cases), it covers the used part of the screen but not the bezels.

You can't be face planting a phone with no case. High impact G's can destroy chipsets, mobos, other internal parts and mounts.

Good.
My 10+ survived a fall onto a rough piece of an aluminum angle from about 3 feet. It marred the factory protector but not the glass. Hit on the curved portion too, most of the impact was probably on the concrete though.
Screen protectors are mostly to prevent marring and scratches from sand and grit. They are a pain to put on although they may provide more impact protection or... not.
Glass is witchy stuff.
Neither a true solid nor liquid it is subject to the laws of fluid hydraulics at times. It can behave in seemingly bizarre ways. Anyone who ever done work as a glazer can verify this.
