Samsung Galaxy S II has been designed with Gorilla Glass?No need of Screen Guard?
I have seen 2 sites saying Samsung Galaxy S II has been designed with Gorilla Glass so I want to make sure. http://androidcommunity.com/samsung-galaxy-sii-gorilla-glass-confirmed-20110503/ Lost another site link.is that true?
Of course SGS II has Gorilla Glass. But I am still really confused that it will or will not need a screen protector! I really don't like them but I think it's better to have one rather than scratching that beautiful 4.27" screen. What do you guys think?
Thanks for putting that link up.

OK Thanks and I think it is 100% better getting a screen Protector for safety.It is better to get a Rs.100-500 screen guard instead of spending money on a screen after getting scratch on the screen.I am using 1 already and kept 1 as spare
Scratches WILL occur on gorilla glass, but they are less likely to be seenwhen compared to other screens.
So buy a screen protector.

Hmm..I already ordered the 2nd one from Scratchgard.in, Rs.499, so it's costly, still I've read a lot of users posting that they didn't use any screen protector for more than one year wit GG and also they used it roughly, still no scratches on it. Yes I know Gorilla Glass is scratch resistant but not proof.
I'd like some users to post here who are not using any protective screen and post feedback here, if there is any scratches appearing or not.
Regards.

There's already a LOT of threads talking about this exact topic. Yes, gorilla glass is tougher than your average glass, but it's not scratch-proof, so I personally don't see the point in taking the risk. Gorilla glass can and will get scratched.
Get a screen protector and never have to worry about scratches, or don't get one and always worry.
Guys i can highly recommend getting this screen protector you really cannot tell that you even have a protecter on your screen,after paying all that money for this phone im not taking any chances.
top service and fast delivery too...

I have had my nexus one for about a year and it has a Gorilla Glass screen. I don't have a screen protector on and I have dropped it several times on asphalt and other surfaces and I don't have any scratches on my screen. I am waiting for the SGS2 to come out on sprint (hopefully) and I won't be bothering with a screen protector.
Thanks, but late for me, my bad.

good for you but id be more "better to be safe than sorry" and for a few quid for a screen protector like the Ultra Olephobic which you wouldn't even notice it was on i believe it's definitely worth getting.
Does the SGP ultra... have problems with air bubbles or orange skin?
I tried a couple of screen protectors with both nexus s and gs2 and I think I'm more bothered by bubbles and orange skin then scratches
I read in quite a few posts about light scratches, most probably due to the anti-fingerprint coating on the glass. But I wont get a screen protector. In the WM times with resistive screens you had to get one because the screens could get scratches with just your fingernail or the stylus, but they all (even the expensive ones) looked bad. So on my HD2 I didn't bother with a screen protector and don't regret it because after over 1,5 years of intensive use (otherwise it was in my pocket or on the stone floor besides my bed) without any cases or screen protectors, my HD2 doesn't even have one single scratch (and I mean the whole device). I just had to remove the paint of the battery cover because it came off on the edges where I hold it, but I would have done that anyway because it looks better, as you can see in this thread. I hope my SGS2 proves to be as good as my HD2.

No it doesn't, honestly i can barely tell mine is on it really is that good just take time to apply it properly there are videos on XDA which are useful regarding this, i did read reviews beforehand and most were favourable but after applying it i really am impressed with it, scrolling is still as smooth as ever,sure you'll get fingerprints and smudge marks but you'd get that on the screen anyway just wipe it off.

Even though it says that the screen is scratch resistant, I wouldn't take the chance. When I got my SGSII, I went ahead and searched for a pouch and a screen protector. Money well spent!
I have it from 1 month ago, without any protector a no scratches. I transport my SGS2 in my pocket always.
For those of you who say that they aren't worried about their phone scratching because its always in their pocket, I would still recommend you getting one, purely because of the fact that Gorilla Glass is vulnerable to SAND and DUST. Sand particles have a very high hardness rating exceeding that of Gorilla glass, so it will carve up your pretty little phone without a care in the world. Simply wiping the screen cover with a cloth that has a particle of sand on it, can scratch the screen, not to mention the original oleophobic coating Samsung put over the Gorilla Glass, which itself is very vulnerable.
I can also vouch for the SGP Ultra Oleophobic Screen Protector. Hands down the best balance of everything a screen protector should have. I've used some no name brands, the Zagg ones as well as the SGP Ultra Crystal one before, and none can compare.
The SGP Ultra Oleophobic beats the Ultra Crystal hands-down simply because it repels oil much better, and can be cleaned with one wipe of a shirt or cloth. On the other hand, the ultra crystal clings to fingerprints and oil like a fat kid to a candy bar.
Both however, exhibit zero rainbow effects, air bubbles or orange peel effects. For about 30 minutes after putting the oleophobic one on, there is a bit of rubbery/slightly sticky feeling on the protector, but it goes away after some use or a bit of cleaning with a microfibre cloth. I'd also recommend not applying the protector on vertically, from speaker to microphone, but rather, from left to right. It is MUCH easier to align this way, and much easier to retry if you messed up the first time.
I've had many people who've played with my phone ask me why I don't bother putting on a screen protector, and when I tell them to look again, they are genuinely surprised they didn't realize it was there.
TL;DR: get a screen protector, because sand (which is actually harder than gorilla glass) and dust can and WILL scratch your screen eventually. also, SGP Ultra Oleophobic beats everything else hands down.
I think Sammy will send the gorilla glass as OTA update when Android Weedcake 2.5.5 hits the market sometime in the distant future.

well well well talk about fate,there is a scratch on the screen and i only put the ultra olephobic screen protector on yesterday initially i thought it was a hair but it's a very small scratch so im even more pleased now i had this on otherwise id have a scratch, thankfully you get 2 screen protectors so i can just replace this one.
Hey guys
Does HTC Titan have a gorilla glass ? Because I googl'd and found mixed results
It's confirmed from GG's site.
However,I was reading a review which said it has GG display
http://www.unwiredview.com/2011/11/09/htc-titan-review/
"Under the Gorilla Glass is a 4.7-inch Super LCD display. This is the largest screen on any Windows Phone device on the market. "
So can any of you guys who own this phone confirm whether it has GG or not ?
Don't think so.. If i'm wrong, then Gorilla Glass isn't very good! I have some scratches on my screen just after 1.5 month of use.. My old HD2 hasn't a single one and I've been using that for 2 years..
no gorilla glass
imho unwiredview is pretty unreliable on quite a few bits of news...
I'm sure its tempered glass
http://www.corninggorillaglass.com/products-with-gorilla/htc
Doensn't have Titan on the list, but the HD7. and my HD7 has 2 deep scratch somehow after 2 months of use... so???
Well,I wish this screen had some kinda protection :-S
Strike_Eagle ,you mentioned that it has GG(in your review on this site)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1309175
"I would say it is good. Not the best but it is good-perfect.
It is Gorilla Glass. "
Honestly,I don't care much about GG,I just want it to be something that doesn't scratch
I emailed HTC about this, and they confirmed that it does not have gorilla glass.
I understand you would like to know if the HTC Titan uses Gorilla Glass, and I will be happy to discuss this with you. In our commitment to quality, HTC pioneered the use of shatter-proof glass in smartphones. At one time, Corning was the only manufacturer and we used their product, Gorilla Glass. Since then, many manufactures have developed and advanced shatter-proof glass technology, allowing HTC to use the highest quality cutting edge shatterproof glass in our smartphones while keeping costs low for our customers. Unfortunately, we would not be able to advise as to which specific manufacturer or product was used for the screen in your particular Titan. Rest assured, however, that it's screen is made of shatter-proof glass.

hmm,so it's not gorilla glass but shatter proof instead ?
Are they kinda advertising or is it really shatter proof ?
Makes you go hmmm?
I'll still slap a screen protector on it to help anyway. I had the Zagg on my Focus, and it worked good for me. I ordered it today for half-off cyber Monday deal.
When i had my TP2, i installed a screen protector on it but when i got an iPhone 4,i didn't put anything on it and after a year of usage, it doesn't have any scratch whatsoever.(And it wasnt gorilla glass either) so if the Titan's screen is as scratchless as iPhone's then I wont even bother getting a screen protector.
Anyway,here's what slashgear reports(in their Titan's review)
"Titan is one of the company’s most cohesive, solid handsets of the past year. The matte-finish black metal casing and bevelled toughened Gorilla Glass fascia come together beautifully, and the various logos and branding are discrete and thankfully chrome-free."
MY comment at the other thread is based on several review article online, because there isn't a way for me to test it.
But if HD7 has Gorilla Glass, then the quality of GG is super low.
my HD7 catched up very few light scartch after only 2 days of using...
If you look at the Gorilla glass website, it lists the Surround as having it, but not others. I have the surround, and it does feel like gorilla glass. And i received a reply from htc regarding the scratch resistance of the new glass they are using instead of the gorilla glass.
The glass we currently use is comparable to Gorilla Glass in regards to scratch resistance and shatter resistance. Unfortunately, we do not have any specifics about the glass and all we know is that it is comparable to Gorilla Glass in its features. I do apologize that I cannot give you more information about this, but I do hope this was helpful.

I would just like to state this: HTC said themselves that the HTC Titan DOES NOT use gorilla glass.
Ok now I've never had a gorilla glass as mostly AMOLED is what I used - hence no gorilla there.
This is my first capacitive non-AMOLED i.e. capacitive LCD (here S-LCD)... I am sure we are not losing anything with absence of the 'gorilla'. The screen feels much scratch resistant unless you knife it! I've dropped my phone 3 times on the road and pavement - no scratch on the screen. A little scratch near the back-bottom (invisible).

Scratches?
Whether it's GG or not, sounds like at least 1 Titan owner already has some scratches. Which is too bad. I have the Zagg Invisible Shield on my Focus, and I just hate putting any screen cover over the beautiful glass. Plus I'm on my second Zagg already, and even the second one is peeling up around the edge. Just got my Titan, still in its box. I may go naked for a while.

DId they (Zagg) ship your order? I too ordered their InvisibleSheild on cybermonday sale, but they never shipped it (even after a week). I ended up asking for a refund (via Paypal). Now I asked my local mall Zagg guy (no way related Zagg itself, but he sells their product) to get the sheilds. Good thing is he will process any replacements too. With Zagg.com you will need pay them full price, and get a replacement after you return old one. You will lose the shipping cost bothways.
"gorilla glass" is a product not a type of glass
I have a TITAN and the screen is pretty solid, so scratches after weeks and feels very hardened.
I'm pretty sure HTC is making the same thing on their own instead of purchasing from corning, but for legal reasons they cannot refer to it as "gorilla glass" because corning has a copyright on it. Question is who has the patent to the hardening process or not. Otherwise anybody is free to make glass this way, they just can't call it GG.
So for all intents and purposes I would say it has GG, but it's HTC's knock off version not the corning version. I could be wrong...

They're in Taiwan. It's almost certainly some cheap Chinese, er Taiwanese knock-off of Gorilla Glass. Close but not quite as good. I'm still going to put a Zagg over my Titan to be safe. I actually got the easy install full body so maybe I won't be as inclined to drop it in the first place.
I'm biased towards zagg products so take this with a grain of salt.
I have had the titan since it came after the penny sale. I applied the zagg shield yesterday. When cleaning my screen, I noticed there was a micro-scratch! Invisible except for in a certain light and with the screen off, but scratched my my short time with it nonetheless.
I love zagg's invisible shield, and I think it will confer a few extra benefits for the titan:
1. The full body shield improves grip; less slippery, more secure in my hand. I know this was a concern for me, especially when trying to reach the back button using one hand.
2. I haven't had any issues personally with reception, but the full body shield prevents direct hand contact and thus should alleviate grip-of-death.
In general, the shield does an excellent job in protecting the phone. One of my issues with straight up glass is if my fingers contain any moisture whatsoever, unless my fingers are perfectly dry, I cannot smoothing swipe across the screen. Moisture increases the coefficient of friction on glass, and any greases or oils are clearly visible on glass. Oils/greases aren't as readily visible on the invisible shield as it is on just glass, and I find that I can just grease up my screen by rubbing it a little bit for a smoother experience.
Yes, the invisible shield does show signs of wear after perhaps 6months to a year of use, but with their lifetime warranty you can get a new set for a few dollars in shipping (Provided you mail back the original shield, via regular envelope even, no special packaging).
I would suggest using wrapsol screen and body shield. You don't get the orange peel effect that the zagg invisible shield gives you. I used the wrapsol screen protector on my surround since the day I got it over a year ago. It has not peeled up or scratched looks as good as the day I bought it.
does the tp have gorilla glass or not ??
and any recomendation for screen garder
Some reviews say it does in fact have gorilla glass...
While I don't think its anywhere on HP website or gorilla glass support website...
Id get a screen protector anyways gorilla glass is somewhat a gimmick as all glass is easy to scrach and break... Gorilla glass is just a marketing tool imo and have scrached a few in my life
I only had my touchpad for a few days now and I bought a screen protector from Walmart (designed for the touchpad)
Forgot the name ill post it in a few mins...
The general consensus around the net is that it does, many reputable reviewers remark on it having gorilla glass, however these mostly consist of reviews done with pre-launch units that may be different in some regards to the mass-production touchpads.
I dont think HP nor Corning have officially stated that it has, my guess is that some touchpads may have it and others have similar glass.
At any rate, I tried out a screen protector for mine and ended up taking it off 10 minutes later due to a distinct difference in responsiveness and feel. I may have just got unlucky with a cheap one, and your generally better off with a screen protector anyhow
I got a Griffin from Walmart... its alot better than any other screen protector I've used...
And I've used alot on phones and my old ipad
I bruyant a screen protecteur of ipad and resize it
Thank you
I'm going with "not". My Nook Color, which has never seen a screen protector, remains scratch free after nearly a year and 5 kids abusing it. Within the first month, the kids managed to put a 1" scratch across the middle of the Touchpad. I've since bought screen protectors for it from Amazon.
Gorilla glass is just tough against shocks.... not scratches

Whatever is on it, I have never felt a more slippery device in my life. Both front and back of this thing seem like they exude a lubricating oil that makes it impossible to remain in your hands or be fingerprint-free.
Absolutely crazy.

The actual glass part is coated by HP with a clear solution making it easy to wipe the screen with any cloth, no liquids necessary. It is always so shiny and clean after I do a small wipe. I do also think it is Gorilla Glass, take a razor and try to scratch it . Then again, it IS glass .
Curious to know how many people will be putting those wet rubbery protectors on there device. I ordered three different brands but now that I think about it, do I really want to have to deal with that mess? Yes, you risk damaging your screen or scratching it but you have to change that rubbery stuff every few months. I had them on iphones and blackberries and after a few months they would get really nasty. I do have a Spigen tough case on it. The regular non rubbery screen protectors only cover the screen before the curve.
Just was curious to know what everyone was going to do. They won't arrive till later in the week, since Amazon misqouted arrival dates, so I am still mulling over it.
I've always put screen protectors on all the phones I've had before I let them out in the wild, but never those wet ones! My phone should be arriving sometime in the next few days and I already have several no-brand screen protectors (regular PET type which only cover the centre of the screen so I'll see how those go), and two Spigen cases (thin-fit smooth black and Ultra Hybrid clear). May end up opting for a tempered glass screen protector once some reviews come out. I have a tempered one on my G2, but it seriously limits the type of case I can use due to the bezels being almost non-existent so I'll wait for now.

As far as I know, there aren't any tempered glass screen protectors for the S6 edge that will cover the entire screen. They haven't figured out a way to create one yet and if they do, I think a lot of people were saying cost would be an issue, for instance someone was stating prices like $50, $75, or $100. I might put one of those center ones on but it would really be pointless if it doesn't protect the entire screen.

Like anything, if there is a demand for a product then prices will come down but you're right, initially tempered glass screen protectors could, and most likely will be expensive at first. I know there are PET screen protectors that curve around the screen, which I may try but I'd have to order them from overseas, and I'll need something to get me going. I'm always really careful with my phones and have never dropped, broken or scratched one, but it would be just my luck if I decided to let this one go naked. Right now I'm just hoping that my phone doesn't come scratched out of the box like others have experienced!
I hate non tempered glass screen protectors. Why have a beautiful screen and screw it up with a that? However, love the tempered glass ones but I seriously doubt there will be one for the edge. Ha ha.
Usually I'm only a tempered glass user but with this Edge I'll have to settle with a regular one. I bought the Invisible Shield Dry HD and I love it. It has gotten better over the years and the orange peel effect is all but gone. It's bubble free and barely noticible.

Not without reviews where the person actually wrote out what they thought about it, no matter how cheap it is.
Yes, I always use a screen protector. I hate bubbles though so I have to get it perfect before im happy.
I ordered a screen protector for the Edge that covers both edges for full protection. Mine is made by a company called Araree, a South Korean company.
It is shipping from Korea so I should get mine next week.

Bestbuy has them. just had one put on the other day.
Never used the wet ones but the mess doesn't sound appealing. I always get dry ones for my phone because I'd rather the cover get scratched than the screen itself. I've got a matte one that covers the edges coming from Amazon sometime this week. I'm trying matte for the first time because I like the idea of glare reduction.
I have a Zagg InvisibleShield HDX cover on my S6 Edge. Goes completely over all the edges and sits almost flush with my cover. I paid to have Best Buy apply it and they did a pretty good job. It is already starting to peel up but I'll go back and they'll re-apply it or they'll fix it with a re-application of the adhesive.
thanks

thanks you verry much
I am worried about pressure points.
with no glass cover, the aluminum edging actually makes it impossible for glass to touch the floor, no matter what angle you try at.
I am worried that, if I add 1 mm of glass on top of the current glass plate, that the thickness will rise past the aluminum case.
meaning that impacts would be redirected to the glass plate.
and not in ideal spots probably.
Ive always used tempered glass before. on flat screens.
but I have second guessed this time..
I may use a thin film.
My theories are probably not exactly correct.
the extra layer of tempered glass would probably add more strength.
I just imagine those weak points and pressure points of the glass and second guess the engineering.
while looking at the phone now.. the corners of the second glass plate would rest on an edge surface with hard material underneath,
meaning extra reinforcement..
I think I will use the tempered glass also.
Hardly used my v30 for 2 months and the oleophobic coating is already gone. As soon as i wipe the phone screen with a clean cloth and use it for 5 min, i already see fingerprints on the whole screen. Anybody experienced this? Any resolutions? Don’t seem to find tempered glass anywhere for this phone as it has curved screens.
If you live in Europe this may help: https://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B077JYR4BL/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Also it's possible to order from USA or other countries in the World but there are shipping costs (example: USA 9€+5€ (aprox. 16$))
I use this glass and I'm very happy with it.

When I first bought my phone a year ago, I had the employee at Verizon put on a tempered glass covering for me. He did a good job, but the glass eventually started coming loose around the edges, letting dirt, fuzz, hair and small things get under it somewhat. Very irritating. The glass only had a small line of glue around the outer edge to hold it on. It finally fell completely off about a month ago.
A couple of weeks ago, I went back into a Verizon store to see if they could put another tempered glass covering on for me. But, I've found that the American Verizon stores that I went in does not carry any or very little LG accessories such as tempered glass covering. What I finally did was have them put on a "liquid glass" covering for me. This was quite expensive having them do it in store, but I think you can probably order it on line a lot cheaper.
The draw back is, I think, a big one. It is on there permanently. I don't know if there is a way to get it off if you get scratches on it. After 3 weeks or so, mine is still looking pretty good with no visible scratches, yet. It wipes off pretty clean, still (don't know how long all this will last).
It's an option if you can't find tempered glass.
