Yes exactly what Dimatchka said "Lol wut?" Maybe you mean silver?
OP is probably referring to the SGP Glas screen protector

God those are horrid. My brother had one on his iPhone and it distorts the screen soooo bad.

The guy above know what im talking about...
I know Amazon has the mirror ones for our phones, just search "i777 mirror screen protector" but I wouldn't recommend it. Aside from the "show off" factor they suck.

I'm 110% against screen protectors, they peel off after a few weeks and usually disort the screen pretty badly. Plus most feel akward and can cause issues with the touch sensitivity.

I'm using the Otterboxone and its ok, no bubbles, no peeling and no effect on accuracy or feel. It does have a bluish wave when the screen is off but you can't see it at all when its on even if you try.
I agree I have seen some that feel horrible and ruin the phone but otterbox got it just right.

Did it come with your case or do they sell it seperatetly? I may check it out if it's half as good as you make it sound
Post a link please.
+1 for the otterbox screen protector. Works well compared to the cheek ones. I don't know if you can get it by itself tho.

If you want a great screen protector, go with the SGP Steinheil Series [Ultra Crystal]:
http://www.amazon.com/SGP-Samsung-P...6SUM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1330006064&sr=8-1
Greatest screen protector I have EVER had. The coating on the screen protector makes it feel like you are touching the glass, there is NO rainbow effect, size is great (if you put it on right, which is pretty easy, it seems like there is no screen protector at all), no peel at all, and no residue left if you decide to take it off.
Wow! Wish i had enough money to buy all these. Still enough i just want one that can keep the screen safe, without bubbles, and is smooth... I heard the 19100 has such. Maybe i could use those.
You'd have to trim it just above the capacitive buttons since it had the physical button cut out

Another +1 for this - got it a week ago, and I honestly can't tell it's on there. With the Skinomi carbon fiber on the back (I skipped the side pieces), when I don't use a case, I still feel "protected"
I havnet found any white ones. i know what your talking about. ive been looking for one too.
my infuse has it on it.
Are there really any differences between a $10+ screen protectors vs the $1.00 ones?
My $1.50 for 3 screen protectors off Ebay work just fine. I hardly even notice it is there. No bubbles and it still looks the same as the first day I put it on (3+ months).
I plan on buying a screen protector in the near future and I want to know if anyone has recommendations or tips for things to be wary of.
Anyone with a screen protector notice have any complaints?

I got a free one from the case I ordered from amazon (SPIGEN SGP AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4G LTE Hard Case Ultra Thin [Infinity White] (FREE Best Steinheil Screen Protector Cover Film Included)). It is very impressive, doesn't leave a lot of prints and fitting is perfect. You should check it out. I see they have more expensive ones for different purpose.
+1 on the SGP. I ordered Ultra Oleophobic. They are superb! Amazon has them for $16 and you get two protectors.

Got the same case, except in black. There is really no room for error for the screen protector install. Mine was just a hair off at the bottom and I made the awful call to pull it up- got a couple lint spots now. Not horrible, but still annoying.
I will be buying a two pack of the Oleo version to replace this one down the road. I figure a couple pieces of lint isnt worth trashing the entire protector right away.
Whats your take on the actual case? I think its a little loose fitting.
Tried them all.
SGP is the only brand I will ever use. (their cases are great too)
They are taking preorders for a glass on glass screen protector.

The problem is, it's far from invisible. It has a soft surface which causes the protector to get scratches. It gives it an almost sticky feel compared to a protector / glass with a higher surface hardness.
Also it doesn't transmit as much light as I would like, and it's not chemically treated to protect it from fingerprints.
The only reason it's successful is marketing.
I have invisible shield on the front and back and I absolutely love it

Although I hope, sgp warranty is good, my screen protector has a very tiny hole on it in the middle and after pressing a lot of times, it bubbles... I emailed them yesterday, still no reply

Have you ever tried any other wet screen protectors? Zagg is the only one I've used with the annoying orange peel. It also feels the most rubbery. I will never buy Zagg again.
I always used PowerSupport screen protectors on my iPhone, but it appears that the company doesn't make protectors for the iPhone. Going on recommendations, I got an SGP ultra clear protector from Amazon on Tuesday. It went on very easy. I was very careful and have no bubbles or dust and it's lined up perfectly.
You can't even tell it's there. The s pen glides along very smoothly.
It compares very favorably to the PowerSupport protectors.
Well I ordered the oil repellent one because of a skin condition I have that requires me to apply a lot of lotion so hopefully that'll make my phone experience more enjoyable.
Thanks for all the suggestions.

I use xtreme guards from ebay. there like $2 for the note. only problem is they are for the international. they still work on att though. you just have the hole. I ordered 1 to try and got 8 more for the future. I prefer the wet apply guards also.

I have the moshi ivisor also. Ordered the sgp ultra oleophobic earlier this week and it came today! Will be installing it later and taking the ivisor back to ATT.
Update: I installed the SGP and it looks 1000% better than the moshi ivisor matte screen protector. I like the ease of install on the ivisor, but the matte just detracts from the screen. I borked the first sgp due to three specks of dust and when I tried to get them out with the included stickers, I made it worse. Luckily it comes with two and I got a clean install on the second one!
I was sitting next to two colleagues on a flight this afternoon and they saw my GNote and asked is that a phone? I showed it to them and one of them said...that phone makes my iphone looks like ****...lol!

I do NOT like Zagg at all.

The old ones felt kinda like orange peels and looked weird after a while. They have definitely changed. I got full body for $12.50 during their sale and it's actually liquid smooth and crystal clear.

I like the newer zagg cases.
My girlfriends zagg for the captivate felt very much like an orange peel but, it didn't bother her.
I got zagg and it feels nothing like hers.. The Upside is for the low price of like 8$ at best buy if I ever need another one put on, they will do it at no charge.. Plus the way zagg will exchange screen protectors is honestly awesome.
It was nice for bestbuy to put another screen protector on my phone when I had to trade in the phone no questions asked.
We've had this phone out for about 4 months now and I was just wondering what screen protectors you guys are using, post a link of where you bought it and personal opinion about the protector and any other helpful information! I've been using this cheap protector for such a long time, now it's time to see what's really out there! :laugh::good:
Mine is built into my Otterbox case. I forget which model, I'll have to look for you, and I absolutely hate it. It's raised very slightly off my screen so I have to press down a with a little more effort, it hinders my typing speed. I'm planning on taking an exacto blade and taking out the screen protector and using one of the regular ones, but damn it I always get air bubbles

You have an otterbox defender. And I'm considering doing the same thing. I'm thinking of getting one of those "wet apply" screen protectors to avoid getting bubbles. I might just get a ghost armor next time I go to the mall.
I'm sure I'll get **** for this but I really do love the invisible shield.
I just wish they made the HD one for the DNA, my gf has it on her iPhone 5 and it's awesome.

I wanted a ZAGG invisible shield, as I had one for the HTC EVO V 4G and it was the 1st screen protector I used, it was great quality. I searched everywhere and could not find one for the DNA, only 1 store on Amazon had it and it got bad reviews. I decided to go with the Armor Military Grade one. Had it on for a couple days, so far feels just as great as the ZAGG.

I use this screen protector on mine and I love it. This was my first screen protector where you need to apply wet and I haven't looked back since putting it on. It doesn't take away from the display and fits perfect and is easy to put on. I ordered mine off amazon and got it cheaper than 12$ at the time. I also got a lifetime warranty on it so if it gets too worn down I will just get a new one. Deffidently the best one I have found so far.

Word! I can't stand the feel of screen protectors. The feel of the glass in way better. I treat my phone like a baby, and sit in an office all day. I guess if I were out in the field I might put a protector on it. But this is the whole point of all this high-tech glass, to make them virtually impossible to break or scratch.

Glass is glass. It will still shatter with enough force (not that a screen protector would save it from that). But even still, small particles of sand and rock and such can still easily scratch the screen. Don't believe its scratch proof when its scratch resistant.

I rather press them a few times than having to worry about a scratch on my screen though - A sacrifice I'd be willing to live with.
Hmm, now that you mention it... My capacitive buttons didn't start acting unresponsive until I placed my screen protector. Back is the biggest culprit with it sometimes ignoring any amount of presses under any amount of pressure.

I have the same problem.....
I really don't like the idea of not having a screen protector, nor not covering the bottom portion where the capacitive buttons are.
However I've been wondering...
How about if we punch holes where the capacative buttons are......
My guess is it would probably work with a high end hole punches which is extremely sharp and wont bend the protector while punching..
Any thoughts?

Gorilla Glass wasn't meant to hold an impact of a fall regardless of it being from only 6 inches. It was meant to absorb getting hairline scratches from everyday use.
