0.60mm thick. Holy smokes that's thick. For reference most glass protectors with rounded edges are 0.40mm thick. Non rounded protectors are 0.15mm to 0.25mm depending on the brand.
I also don't see any cutouts for the speaker.
Also, I don't believe any of these glass protectors are true 9H on the hardness. That's equivalent to Sapphire. However, it's still going to be much harder than plastic which has a 3H hardness rating.

At that thickness, I sure don't hope it causes sensitivity issues. Furthermore, I don't see any cutouts for the proximity or luminosity sensors. I know some glass protectors have been plagued with with prox. sensor issues (i.e screen not turning off during calls when you bring the phone to your ear or staying off if you take it off your ear). I guess it's really hit and miss with those things. You would also need some kind of home button sticker/riser of some sort.
Look up Benks AKR on youtube, its pretty amazing, these are .3 thickness, and can take a hammer to them. I bought one, I can post on how it is later.
For $16 just get a screenmate flex protector.
Get the Glass M from eBay for $15 if you want something thinner. I got 2 (one for my sister) and it has no problem sticking like the bodyguardz. They're clear and smooth.. feels like I don't even have a screen protector on

Yes its quite cheap one...I checked it out on Amazon its of $ 35........but as you said it would be getting shipped from HongKong...but what if the product is found broken or not genuine simply that will mesh you in lot of trouble...and r u sure in $ 15 ...they are free shipping it to US.....???
for amazon here is the link where you can check

There are China tempered glass protectors for less than 10 bucks on the aliexpress website. I'm tempted, so I ordered a 0.3mm size for my wife's S4 for 8 bucks to test the quality.

Has anyone used those cheap screen protectors on ebay? Those that are like 1$. I was gonna buy a clear-coat but I thought that there must be some that are as good or even better for a cheaper price. Of course, I dont mean those 1$ ones but maybe $5, etc. So has anyone tried any protectors that were good from ebay? For me, smoothness is more important then clearness (stock protector clearness is good enough). Thanks
I always liked the cheap ebay protectors over expensive Zagg InvisibleShield. I usually buy set of 3 for 1.99 or 2.99.

LOL DONT! its **** if u live in canada (cold season in winter then hot in summer.. duh) the screen protector's first layer kinda like peels off from the screen protector itself and it looks gay... + not scratch resistent or uv resistent so its ***
I bought mine on a local mall for 8$US .. its got scratch resitent, UV resistent, auto heal ****...
I live in Canada, and for the last 5 phones ive been buying ebay protectors, cheap and not bad quality.. make sure the sellers feedback is good tho
i bought cheap screen protectors off of 2 different sellers on ebay and they are cheap for a reason! they arnt cut properly and are larger then the screen. they cover the ear peace and physical buttons just a tad. so whenever you put your phone in your pocket the sides catch on your jeans and peels off the screen selector.
It really depends. While I didn't buy any from ebay, I received 10 or so screen protectors from the seller of my X10. They look like the $1 from ebays and while the fitment is great, I see a very bad rainbow effect across the entire screen. I've never seen this on the more quality expensive ones.

This is my experience as well.
I prefer the cheap ones. I brought them for my old phones and they fit reasonably well. They are pretty good quality for the price.
Well, i have bought cheap pnes from ebay and from amazon, never had any problems at all, they have always fitted perfectly, not discolored or distorted either.
I also have some stealthguard (the ones they handing out for free - usually ~£20) shields, which is what im using at the moment.
The stealthguards "stick" better so they dont peel at the corners or anything, and they are a lot more scratch resistant so you dont have to replace them as often, but i would never pay full price for them, they simply are not worth it.
Ultimately i would recommend ordering a couple of "free" ones from stealthguard, but failing that you cant really go wrong with ebay
I have tried cheap ones for my X1 more than a year ago. Can't recommend them. They were hard to get onto the screen because they were so thin and weren't scratch resistant. Pulled them off after a few weeks each.
For my X10 I have bought protectors for 10 euros each. They are great. Scratch resistant, easy to get them onto the screen, and each lasts at least a year, until you have to pull it off, wash it and put it back on again (yes this works really).

I bought the XtremeGUARD one from eBay for less than three dollars (USD) with free shipping. (Sometimes the seller will have a sale and offer it for one dollar with free shipping.) It's one of those wet application ones where you have to use soapy water.
Aside from having to put it on with water, application can be tricky since your fingertips need to be covered in soapy water too or else fingerprints will get onto it. A lot of air bubbles will also get in there, but those are pretty easy to get rid of.
The only thing I don't like about XtremeGUARD is that it has this kind of 'orange peel' look once everything is dried and you look at the screen when it's completely dark. It's not that noticable, though, and I accept it.
The quality and protection is right up there with the expensive protectors (I do know people with the ZAGG ones), and I thought it was a good buy.
i bought 3 for a $1. the description said anti-glare but when it arrived it was basically just a regular clear protector. So in order for it to be anti-glare it has to be matte?
I saw this at Kickstarter few months ago, and they launched now a NOTE 3 protector, has anyone tried it?

Most are just tempered glass with adhesive on one side and oleophobic coating on the other. My understanding is that they put an extra layer into the rhinoshield, a plastic layer under the glass. That will absorb and dissipate impact forces.
I'm working from memory here, I think this is what their kickstand page said a few months ago. I didn't see this description today, but their current description implies it.

they also state on their site that the max hardness of there products go up to 3h..sounds outdated and over priced when the avaverage tg screen protector around the same price has all those features + a hardness avg of 7-9h...for example i am using the mime feather glass on my note 3...free shipping plus you can add an aluminum button for 1 dollar on top of that.

Thanks for the info bros. I am now considering getting one for my Note 3 but not sure which brand/company should I choose. I am looking at SPIGEN again since their support is finally catching up with complaints and they seem to be redeeming themselves. I just checked out mime and it looks great as well. Any more suggestions and if so which is/are the ones you recommend (wonder is someone has done a youtube vid comparison)

I have the Mime and love it. There are no signs of bubbles or lifting edges, and it feels great without the extra button. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't like it as much with the extra button. The only thing about it i don't like is the wide cutout for the speaker plus sensors.
There are cheaper models that seem to be the same as the Mime at a much lower price, but if I picked a new one today I'd probably get the Rhinoshield.

Get the Spigen Glas.tr. It's solid. I have it and am really surprised at how sturdy, clear, and responsive it is. No smudges or scratches either.
I have the mime featherlite and love it. Thin and strong. No button needed (although i put on one for fun)

i am quite surprised there haven't been threads with people experimenting with glass protectors and plastic protectors on their own. either way it's redundant but on the other hand can extend the longevity of the glass protectors if having glass isn't your number one priority.
Just bought me a Note 3 (have a note 2 N7100) and allready bought me a tough case from casemate, but what about screen protection?
Use one or not? I mean its gorilla glass 3 (gorilla glass 2 on the note 2, gorilla glass 1 on the first note?)
If i deside to buy one, which easy to put on screen protection would you recommend me? (hate dirt and fingerprints under a screen protection)
I would prefer if it didn't cost more then 20€ with shipping to denmark (if they don't have it in denmark)

The glass feels so great to the finger, I can understand why you wouldn't want a plastic screen protector taking that feeling away. I agree, if on principal, you refuse to pay more than a determined amount for a screen protector; however I do have to say that the glass screen protectors available for the Note 3 are well worth that investment. There are now a variety available at different price points increasing your options. You won't have any remorse in buying one of these products as you get the protection and the great feeling of glass.

I used something from copter on my note 2 (swedish manufactory) beacuse i don't wanna get scratches on my phone, especially when it's new.
I also want it to almost to feel as new when i sell it so i can get a good price (1-2 years)
I want something like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aI9WlhhuPvg
payed for the last 2-3 screen protection (samsung galaxy) not more then 20€ so that price is something i would go for, also think it's a reasonable price
I might go with the spigen as in my youtube link, but what should i buy?

Good price, 12 £ with shipping to denmark http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/cart/view.html/ref=lh_cart_vc_btn
1st I'll say anyone that doesn't put a screen protector on is moron in my book. $700 phone why wouldn't you? But, I can't stand film protectors. I will only use a tempered glass screen protector. I use only MIME Ghost Glass. It has a 9h rating o on the hardness scale which means it's harder to scratch then your screen. And it feels smoother and less drag them the actual screen does.
pay $7 for a glass protector. do it. do it now.
I second Eric (without calling anyone a moron) but I've been the type to not start using a device without installing a case and screen protector. Yeah the new glass ones are great..way better than the plastic ones. I still have the Vibrant that I got when it came out. It been thru me, my wife, son, and now my 9y.o. daughter. It does not have a single minuscular scratch on the screen.

Any speciel one you would recommend that can be shipped to denmark, that dosn't cost almost as much as the screen protection?
I have a case mate tough case so the screen protection i choose is something that must fit with the tough case on
I'm sure the pros and cons were mentioned somewhere on this forum but couldn't find exactly what I'm looking for as there are hundreds of pages of comments. I'm undecided between Spigen glas.tr slim & iLoome screenmate 9H for the note 3 and would like some input on which would be the best bet. They both seem equivalent as far as what they offer but would like to know from those who actually have used them. I've looked at Amazon reviews and still couldn't make my mind up. I plan on using one of these with the Otterbox Commuter.
My main concern is that it be truly bubble free so no bubbles form months down the line and no adhesion issues. From Amazon reviews I've seen people mention that after a few months bubbles had formed. If anyone has used these for a few months, do you have any bubbles and what are your thoughts?
I've got the iloome and there are no bubbles. I've never used the other one but can recommend this one. It wasn't too hard to install. You kind of have one shot at it. I found a video on YouTube where the guy places the glass on top first then puts blue tape on one side. So its like a door. Then he lifts the glass up, peels the plastic and drops it straight onto the screen. That's the method I used and it worked out perfectly. Once you do that just start pushing from the middle out to get rid of all the air.

I've had my SPIGEN for about 6 months now with zero issues. I never has bubbles and nor do I have any now. It can withstand some abuse too. I dropped my phone on a gravel driveway, straight on the glass. Didn't move a hair.
Btw, using it in combination with an Otterbox commuter.
spigen user here for me it's worth it
Been using iloome glass for 7 month now. No scratch, no crack, no bubbles. Still clear and vibrant as I first got it. Totally recommend their screen protectors.
Do they extend up to the edge of the screen? Because there are some cases that overlaps a TINY portion of the screen like caseology

Maybe off topic, but their neo hybrid case is a complete crap. Outrageously expensive and poor to medium quality. Not necessarily a bad brand, just too expensive for the quality they offer. IMO spigen products are NOT worth the money.

bad glass i use nilkin cp+ pro
I got a nilkin tempered glass and it was a very good quality protector. I live in Mexico so they don't really sell anything related to the phone, but found a seller in a local platform, was a bit pricy (20 USD ~) but was delivered within 2 days. The only problem with the protector was that the black border looks cool, but serves no real purpose and it covers a bit of the screen. One day I left the phone laying in my bed and somehow the screen protector got 3 horrible cracks out of nowhere. I was really happy with it and willing to get another one, but now my local seller is gone, and now I ordered those PULEN protectors from the US because it was the closest option to me. I'm currently waiting for them to be delivered.
I hate glass with black borders because its hard to place it perfectly and not get in the way of the screen.
I brought this: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000040307494.html
Super cheap, no borders and the quality is decent, would recommend taking this into consideration if you are looking to ditch black borders.
as i mentioned, i can only order from Amazon
