I have a Zagg screen protector on my phone now.
It works great but after a few months the screen has some stains and scratches from the s-pen.
A replacement screen is free AFTER you pay $12 for shipping and handleing. I only paid $20 for it
Im thinking of just taking the screen protector off.
Anyone ever scratch the screen or have any nicks from day to day use?
My phone is on my desk most of the time at work and Im pretty careful with the phone.
I have a case on the phone so the back is covered.
You want a screen protector. The zagg is pretty soft which I like the feel of when using the spen so I'd suggest a more rigid protector. The ones att sells are pretty good if you don't want to know its there.

When I had an iphone I really liked the apple screen protector. I don't know who makes it but it seemed like it was only available at the apple store.
It didn't get smudged or have a any peeling.
I've never had a screen protector on any of my androids.
My last phone ended up with a very light scuff, but hard to tell.
My GNote has one minor scratch. I know where it is, but can't feel it and I'm honestly not able to see it right now with the screen on. It's actually kind bothering me I can't find it!
I hate the way screen protectors feel. Guessing the glas.t or whatever it is, is the only one that feels about perfect.
Really in the end, it's user preference. I think a case with a lip around the screen is essential, screen protector is not. I have 5 cases no screen protectors.

I bought my Note on release day from AT&T. I've run three different cases with no screen protectors and I don't have a single blemish on my screen. Like you, my Note spends most of its day on my desk at work. Try it for a couple of days and see if you are comfortable with it.
otter defender case with the built in super duper bad azz plastic shield.....it's a smudge fest...LOL
I put on the protector right in the att store when I bought my note. I just recently replaced it with a glas.t and the difference is night and day!
It feels awesome and is not clowdy like the att protector is. The screen just jumps out at you. Just like it does when not using a protector.

Zagg makes a great screen protector but when I looked when I got my note they only had a version for the international version.
My screen had accumulated more scratches in 2 weeks than my I9000 did in its entire lifespan so I went with something else.
And yes, no matter which brand you go with it will affect the s pen usage but after a while you kind of forget about it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
I hate screen protectors myself, never used one on my I9000 and it was completely scratch free somehow. Some small surface scratches started appearing on my note and I figured it was time. Using the glas.t screen protector and it is honestly like there isn't one there at all. It feels the same as naked, looks the same, spen works the same, etc. It's great! I will never use another screen protector ever again, they ruin the feel, but the glas.t doesn't.
No screen protector on my last three devices, Note, Inspire 4G and Nexus One.
Not a single scratch or blemish on any of them
I absolutely love the feel of Zagg's protectors. Used on my iphones, gs2 and note. I can barely type with out it. I will say that the screen "pops" more with out it though.

Has anyone used Moshi screen protectors? Worth the $25?
Although my SGS2 has Gorilla Glass, thinking that AT&T's 3 pack (for $10) of CaseMate screen protectors would be a no-brainer and not have to worry about scratches on the screen. However, the store said they aren't carrying those for the SGS2 but that the Moshi is a much better protector.
Here's the link - $25 for one protector seems steep to me
http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-ph...sku=sku5370231&q_manufacturer=&q_model=#fbid=
I have it. Its nice because it covers the att logo.
Id like to figure out a way to nicely cut out the circles for the navigation buttons. Would be easier to find when the back light is off while in the dark

It is a nice screen protector, but is anti-glare (which some people like) and anti-glare protectors wash out the screen color some. I'm going to try out a couple cheap clear protectors and see if I like them.

i personally like them, it makes the screen "a little" darker, and probably to some diminish the quality, but it is just fine for me. i personally like the way they feel opposed to the glossy ones but to each his own.
Yea, I have a couple of friends that like anti-glare, and I can understand why. I just don't like how much it affects the screen appearance.
although even clear screen protectors affect the screen appearance some as will. I would like to go without one, but I work in a manufacturing environment so if I want to keep the phone in decent shape I have to.

I'm wanting to try some cheap ones off eBay and the SGP one.. but don't want to waste so much money on screen protector.. trying to wait for the SGP Neo Hybrid case to come out which it should include one screen protector. I really like the Power Support Anti Glare for iPhone 4 but then there isn't that option for the SGSII. Even though the screen is hard to scratch, I usually prefer having a screen protector just to ease myself from being paranoid lol
I love the Moshi, although I admit I'm not sure if I'd pay $25 for it.
I get 50% off of accessories, so after getting the Moshi for the Infuse, getting it for the GS2 was a no-brainer - especially given how many smudges I got on it in the hour I spent dumping the stock kernel.

I'm fairly certain if I were to buy lots of extra accessories for other people it would raise a red flag.
i just bought the moshi and they gave me a 25% coupon after asking about it so it was about 20$ and i dont really like the black ends covering up the att logo but i have to admit its a nice screen protector
Been using one since infuse launch day, it does wash the screen just a bit but there ain't none better. imo.

Thats the moshi on mine, it's a bit dirty from fingerprints and well the picture quality is crappy because my Roomie's droid pro is a piece of crap But you can clearly see no bubbles!
Moshi with a Case Mate, both from the ATT Corpo store.
I love the moshi, but there are some odd rainbow color effect in the middle.
you should see if you can exchange it... i dont have that problem with mine
Im not seeing any rainbow effect... hard to tell with your background..
Here's the rainbow effect shown a little better. It's much more visible in person, however, it almost disappears when the screen turns on.
So, this isn't normal for these Moshi screen protectors? I should take it back for a new one?
Thanks
What do you guys think is the best screen Protector for the Rezound? I've tried Invisibleshield, but don't really like the orange peel or rubber feel. I also want something that covers the entire screen and has some fingerprint resistance. Also, anti glare would be nice, but I don't know if they make those. Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks

I also dislike the invisi shields. I hate the feel & when I had one on my Thunderbolt I ended up having to replace it twice.
right now I am enjoying using nothing but if I do get protectors its probably just going to be the basic cheapo ones.
I had a cheap one on my Incredible, then Invisishield, and now nothing for 3 months. I like it better without protection, personally. :-D

as Austin Powers once stated they're only needed by sailors who go from port to port.
I'm pretty paranoid about scratching my screen, but also VERY particular about the protector. I tried the ones from VZW, but couldn't stand how it changed the awesomeness of the RZ screen. Didn't like the eggshell feel of the Zagg or I'd go to Best Buy. Been using Steinheil on my DI1 and DI2, but when I checked last week, they still weren't available for the RZ. Same for Ghost Armor.
Hmmmmm.......

how much of the screen does the screen protector actually cover? can we get a close up picture of it?
it's literally the whole screen, except like a milimeter off the sides. it goes down to the bottom of the bezel and is on the top of the bezel (has cutouts fro the camera and the light sensor)
Since I hate shiny screens, I used the same protector film as I have on my ipad2:
Speck Matte :
http://www.amazon.com/Speck-Product...SHKC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322019483&sr=8-1
I can probably make about 6 Rezound sized screen protectors from 1 sheet (the pack comes with 2 sheets...but 1 is on my ipad 2). I made using the crappy screen that came with the otterbox case as a template. Dhen you think you have it the EXACT right size, cut about 1/2 (half) a millimeter off all sides, otherwise you will get hung up on the edges and perpetual bubbles where the film catches the inner "edge/lip".
The matte film lasts long, is fingerprint/smudge resistant, and THANK GOD, its matte (not shiny).
Just be sure you REALLY clean the screen well prior to application, go slow and work out all the bubbles, and do it in a DUST/lint free environment (like a humid bathroom) or a cleanroom (if you have access to one).
god i HATE screen protectors! less than 12 hours on and this stupid ass thing has a damn scratch already. it's only been in my pocket ONCE since putting it on, and it was in there b yitself!
these things scratch if you put it on velvet. that's why i hate screen protectors lol i have a feeling i'll be taking this thing off in a day.
How scratch resistant is the screen? I had always used a screen protector with my Droid X (Steinhiel ultra clear). I hate them though but I am so OCD if I got a scratch on my screen it would drive me crazy. I would like to go without one cause the screen looks so much better.
just checked Steinheil and Phantom Skinz. Both dont have one yet. I emailed them both asking when we ca see it. They are the only ones I have ever used.
I refuse to use ZAGG/ Invisible shield

I bought the Verizon Screen Protector as a stop gap until better products hit the market. Unfortunately that was money wasted. It felt too slick and gave that rainbow effect whenever viewing anything with white background. Like oil on water, I guess because of the anti-glare treatment. I pulled it of after 1 day.
I just hope GhostArmor gets some skins out soon.
I'm looking for one that helps alleviate the fingerprints the most if anyone has any suggestions. I have a Zagg on my Bolt and I don't mind it but I want something a little less orange peel for the Rezound.

I think that the matte/orange peel/egg shell type textures do the most to make fingerprints less noticeable, but I don't know of any screen protectors that flat out repel fingerprints (oils and stuff). That would be really cool though.
With such a beautiful phone, I really dont want to cover it up. I bought a very minimal case but I'm not sure if I will use it or not. Its also a big phone so it may be easy to fumble so even though I have never dropped a phone, the thought of having that case on there for the what if moment.
So are you going to go Naked or is the security of having a case more important to you?
With the exception of a snack size Ziploc bag to keep dust out at work I always go naked and haven't had any problem yet but I hope to keep this phone for a while so I have been shopping around for the perfect case
I have a full body set of Xtreme Guard protectors on it, basically a cheap Zagg without the orange peel.
I would love to go naked but because its such a beautiful phone i need some protection. So ill be using a case thats got minimal protection but still keeps it nice and thin

That is what I have ordered as well. Can't go wrong. Ordered a full body set and a spare screen protector.. Used Zagg on my iPhone 4 and the orange peel was horrible.
I have an Infuse 4G car dock.. so can't add too much of a case without making that no longer work.. (although I am going to likely modify the holder a bit and see if I can make it work with a case.. will see)
I am assuming that the 3rd party accessories will start appearing soon.. some pretty nice cases.. the phone I find is a bit smooth and hard to hold onto.. nearly dropped it a couple of times.

I would never do that in my life, all my previous phones were protected by full body protectors and TPU or silicon cases. When I get this device nothing will change, I don't take no chances with stuff like this; GSIII deserves to be protected IMO.

Using an SGP crystal. Even gorilla glass 3 can scratch if it meets something like sand. I may go with a glass protector eventually.
I'm using the iLoome Screenmate glass protector and love it. Only thing is it does not have rounded edges like some do. I would recommend iLoome or MIME for tempered glass protectors. The MIME has rounded edges and you can use coupon code "bbq" for an additional 11% off plus free shipping through Monday for memorial weekend. I used both on my iPhone 5 and both companies have excellent customer service.
I got Tech Armor for just under $6 for 3. It's very nice and clear although I don't know about durability.

I did cut off the tab at the top. I slid a credit card underneath the tab and cut the section level with a razor to make look nice.
Yeah I was bummed when I removed the OEM screen plastic from my nex4 cause that same day I put my keys in my pocket with my phone for all of ten minutes. Still have the little marks it made.
I bought a screen cover after that and ripped it off a few days later cause my diztronic phone case was messing up its edges that went all the way to the rounded glasses ends.
Had I kept the original it would still be perfect I bet. Still good though just saying I learned that the OEM is fine for a long time.

I almost left the default on my replacement, I never saw such a decently placed factory protector in my life. In the end though I decided to give my SGP a try and do it in the bathroom after I got out of the shower. Using the hinge method, this is the first time I've never gotten a speck of dust on the screen and placed it 99% perfectly. Can't get much better than this:

The only flaw I see is around the front facing camera, it could have been moved to the right a micrometer. Actually, looking at the home button cutout, I think that's more of a cutting issue on SGP's side because that looks perfect vertically and horizontally.

Looks great to me. I normally get the SGP Ultra Crystal for my devices, but I was thinking about trying the GLAS this time around. Since the original protector is clear and doesn't have lines or writing on it, it has given me some more time to make my decision. Which version of the SGP are you using?

Since the original protector is clear and doesn't have lines or writing on it, it has given me some more time to make my decision. Which version of the SGP are you using?

That's what I'm using, the SGP Ultra. Got it for 50% off when I bought the case from them. First experience with them, but both case and screen protector are very nice.
I started using screen protectors on the note 2 and this phone after all the phones I own. Because I don't notice a difference in quality or feel. And find it much easier to clean. and the slightest hair line scratch will drive me crazy. I'm not awesome at putting them on. So when I get devices. I make the salesmen put it on. And if it's not mint they try again and again till its perfect or I don't want it and won't pay for it haha.

So I ordered the ones from XtremeGuard Spartan Tempered Glass
http://www.xtremeguard.com/LG-G3-Screen-Protectors-p/lg-g3-screen-protector.htm#.U8CjKOXD-3g
And used the discount code and got them for 6.00 a piece. Havent got them yet but people are reporting that they are aligned horribly and requesting refunds.
So now I need another brand. I've always used spigen for my regular screen protectors. Never tired a glass one.. But there's plenty of brands out there..
Anyone make any recommendations based on the g3 or previous phones models that they used an glass protector on?
Ones I've looked at are:

I am using the one in your first link.
The Spigen GLAS.tR NANO SLIM , a bit pricy but I've used them on my last couple phones and love them.
I think Spigen glass products is so pricy, but, it's worth it I think!
I just ordered the Spigen. I went with it because it was so thin with rounded corners, it completely covers the top, and because I could get it with prime (I want to slap it on before I touch the new screen to ensure no smudges). Most don't seem to cover the top and that leaves an area for a crack to start, and probably doesn't look as nice.
I had planned on ordering the second link one which seemed better while cheaper, but it's not available now.
I stopped using screen protectors on my last 2 phones (Nexus 4 and Nexus 5). However, my Nexus 5's screen developed a couple of pretty nasty scratches over the past month or two. In an effort to not subject my G3 to the same fate, I did some research and went with the recommended Spigen GLAS.tR NANO SLIM Tempered Glass protector. It was definitely pricey but had excellent reviews and I was hoping to keep the feel of the stock screen, which these glass protectors supposedly mimic.
My phone finally arrived today so I immediately installed the Spigen protector before I even turned the phone on. It was significantly easier than what I remember from standard screen protectors and came out absolutely flawlessly. I was never able to accomplish this with regular screen protectors so I was very happy that the ease of install lived up to the hype. Overall the screen protector feels like the bare screen and you'd never know it was there, especially once the TPU case was installed.
While it is pricey, I imagine it will last quite a while, so it's worth it to me. I'd definitely recommend it.
**Ignore the thing that looks like a bubble near the bottom left of the screen, it was a piece of dust that wiped right off.

Fits very nice and is thin, but it seems to pick up stubborn smudges rather easily. This is the first glass screen protector I bought so I don't know what to expect.
I just ordered this.

I went with some glass from eBay, it was a doodle to fit and cost £8. Infinitely better than the screen protector that came from spigen (not glass), that seemed to smudge and was took hard to fit (bubbles)
Go with #3. Its the best for the money hands down. Trust me, you will not be disappointed and probably buy an extra after you get it.
Beware.. if you buy any of them with a big cut out rather than a separate cut out for the camera and speaker you will get a lot of dust collecting there. At least my nillkin one does anyway, apart from that its great.
Got the Spigen, seems be be the thinnest at .23mm
Thinking about upgrading to a glass screen protector. Has anyone had problems with trapping a rogue dust/fibre whilst applying? With traditional PET screen protectors its ok to lift up and get a bit of sticky tape to remove the dust/fibre that was trapped.
Thanks!
Wow that glass is fancy. I've never had issues with my usual clear stick on $5 3-packs from any brand out there on Amazon. I just change them out after 6mo to a year for a fresh look.
Actually, I'm big fan of Spigen......So I bought the case and glass screen protector for my G3.
I didn't apply the screen protector on my phone yet because I didn't get my phone.
But. I'll upload new updated comment after applying that.
I can't wait for my G3.
I got the SGP Nano glass and it works great. Just don't be a dumbass like me and try to wipe the sticky side when you mess up.
Does the spigen cover the front camera? If so does it obscure it at all?

Yes. The only cut out is the speaker. Everything else is covered. It is crystal clear and I have seen no difference in before and after pics using it. Hell, if I didn't put it on I'd be hard pressed to tell it's there. 100% satisfied.

Totally agree! I have literally just put mine on. I mis-aligned the first time and had trouble trying to pry it off again, but luckily I got it off and re-applied no problem!

SGP glass is same as Glass4m protector, but the pricing Glass4m protector is more cheap than SGP.
Just $16.99

I went with the skinomi: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L2PDY6O/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It's $15 with Prime and has a lifetime warranty: The purchase of any Skinomi product including TechSkin and DesignSkin includes a lifetime replacement guarantee. Yes, you read it right! We are confident that Skinomi products are the toughest and the only film protector you'll ever need. If ever a properly installed TechSkin is scratched, torn, or damaged, we'll replace it free of charge.
The last glass one I purchased for my X ended up breaking from my keys and I had to replace it so I figure the warranty might come in handy. Not many reviews but they were both positive. Arrives Saturday and I I'll try to come back here and update with my thoughts.
