Let me inform you about Sony warranty policy about the screen protector they added.
IF YOU MOVE IT, YOU VOID YOUR WARRANTY ANF THE SONY LOGO IS APPLY ON THE SCREEN PROTECTOR.
If damage is apply on the screen protector, call Sony Customer Care.
If not then It's best you apply your own on top of that screen protector.

What about the protector at the back? I remove today gently and put a 3rd party one it look good,can't notice without clearer look.

The "If you remove the screen protector you'll void your warranty" does not apply in all countries. Just email or contact your local Sony office or store and ask them.

As this is my first post on XDA, I'm not allowed to post an outside link.
But type in my screen name, dot blogspot for a how-to on film removal...
well you can remove both the front and the back films ! removing the front shatter proof film is kinda hard and trust me its not worth it , you're gonna end up with device with no sony logo and a screen with no oleophobic coating ! removing the back one is much easier !

I have never used screen protectors. That is because, I don't need one, I take care of my phone(it hasn't fallen...yet xD).
I never wear the phone in the same pocket with coins, keys etc. No scratches on the phone at all.
Can't thank you enough in one day ( only 8 thanks per day ) .... thanks for replying to my every query..
Well screenguards are all a matter of personal preference. I ALWAYS have used and will be using screen guards. Mostly because the active has the strap that has an aluminium "lock"? on it, and it so happens to be going on the screen over and over again, resulting to scratching it. Even though the Active has Dragontrail glass, which is said to be much stronger than Gorrila, i just cant bare to see a single scratch on the screen

Nope, it is not gorilla glass. It is shatterproof mineral glass with (apparently) scratchproof layer. Apparently, not sure how scratchproof it is.
I do not have any scratches on my LWW, but it is because I take care of my phone. I haven't tested, if it really is scratchproof, neither am I going to test it.

How can scratches appear during playing games?
as long as they didn't say that the screen is 'scratch proof' i will always put screen guard
I have dropped my phone twice (accidentally of course) around 3ft high. No scratch so far, also it use to stay on my pocket together with coins and key. So far smooth screen and back cover. But since it easily caught smudge from frequent texting; I installed matted screen protector.

There is no special screenguard for this phone, buy a regular one, which is large enough and cut it to smaller, so it would fit the LWW.
well i have one that is specially for LWW, just search the internet
actually iI went to the store and they told me that it will arrive on saturday. that means there is screen guard that fits to lww
Try it and let me know many scratch ypu can put in it

They say that the screen of s3 is can't b scratched is this true ...? So do I have to use the screen protector
The screen on the S3 is solid. There's a video of someone playing Fruit Ninja with a real knife on YouTube... the screen stayed intact.
Read the do i need a screen protester posts in accessories .
Yes they can be scratched .

Ask yourself:
Would you whine and cry if you got a scratch on your screen?
If yes, then buy a screen protector.
If no, then go naked.
Me, I would definitely whine, so I bought a protector.
by the way, there is no 100% surface coverable screen protector available...
Due to the curve in the corners of the screen, full screen protector will not sit properely... so the edges (2mm) are not protected form the scraches...:crying:

Actually ZAGG Invisible Shield (It's on my Galaxy S3 at the moment) covers 99.9% of the phone. It's also a very durable screen protector that will last months.
Awww but they do scratch, and it would take something pretty hard to put a gouge in the screen but a knife, keys or any amount of things can easily put micro scratches in the Oleophobic coating and if you use in daylight it gets hard to see the screen.
I have a sp on mine. Just to be safe. I wish my shell would get here from amazon already! I've accumulated some scuff marks on the back cover somehow! greatest phone ever!

Will I lose warranty if I remove Sony's preinstalled screen protector? And I read the Sony logo is on it, is this true?

As far as i know; yes, you'll lose the warranty if you remove it (correct me if i'm wrong, people), and as far as i know (again), the Sony logo is indeed on the screen protector and not the device itself (it's retarded).

It'll get scratched eventually, and you'll have (if you want) to remove/replace it. Again, i'm not 100% sure IF you'll lose your warranty if you remove it, but that's what i've read here and in the Z section. Contact Sony if you want to be 100% sure.
I contacted SONY Care support....yep. The warranty can be void by removing the pre-applied screen protector.
.................wow..im not so sure I want one anymore. This is kind of silly
Not sure about the warranty,but the logo wont removed if you pell off the protecting layer,its not like the xperia z

Is this really confirmed? Any picture/video that confirms this? Not to be skeptical, but I heard sony put the logo on the protector so that it will be obvious if the protector is removed thus it's easier for sony to decline the warranty. On xperia T (if I'm not mistaken) the logo is on the glass, not the protector, and I heard that some people can still claim warranty after they remove the protector, probably because the store didn't realize that the protector is gone.
Yes, it's been confirmed in another thread. The only thing i have to say about that is: WTF Sony? What if we get scratches on it? If we get scratches on it, we basically lose our warranty? Not gonna happen. "I'll fight to the death" if i have to when the day comes.
But i'm still getting it. The last phone i had to send in to a service center was an HTC Touch (2007), so i'm not that paranoid

They using own piece of sh!tty glass which is called "Dragon"
Is not oleophobic at all if you removing sony protector you need to install another one cuz without it your screen will be on Fingerprint-Madness mode!
It also not shatterproof.
So now I have a questions. Sony Y U NO gorilla glass?!?
I just got my Z Ultra GPE. I have the incipio dualshine case for it but the included screen protector is not very good and I ended up with a pretty poor application. I ordered a glass protector from Glass-M but it won't be here for a couple weeks. Do you guys think I can get by without a protector without scratches until the glass comes? I only really put it in my pocket. One edge of the protector I have didn't adhere properly and I'm afraid fuzz/dirt will get under and scratch it. Other option is to just use my S4 until I get the better protector.
I've had my Ultra since september and i don't have a single (noticeable) scratch on the front (i'm not using any additional protection). You'll be fine, but accidents happen, so it's not possibble to tell if yours will be scratch free in a few weeks. I do have a couple of scratches on the back though, but i couldn't care less.

@hamdogg mentioned an easy way to apply the protector, use water - added bones is the phone is waterproff
you should be able to remove and reapply the protector.
I've used mine since September with no case or added protection. Like @LordManhattan no scratches or wear at all. Dropped it a couple of times without issue.
Worth adding I dont use a stylus or pencil or anything other than fingers, pretty sure that would degrade the film pretty quick.

I can't see scratches on mine when I am using it. But turn of the screen and swing the phone side to side until the light hits it just right and I see all kinds of fine scratches. How easy is it to scratch? I'd say very easy. And it's not just fine scratches that plague this phone but also the fading of the oleophobic coating. You'll notice the part of the screen where you constantly touch gets rougher compared to the rest of the screen. In the end I'm just waiting for mine to scratch to the point where I will have to remove the ASF.
ಠ_ಠ
On mobile....
Ok thank you all for the feedback. I decided to just use it. If it's something that will scratch in 2 weeks of light use and no accidents I'd just assume return it.
Can anyone share how zu will look like if you remove the asf.....if the sony logo is not their.... It will be a little weird......

You are correct, the Sont logo will be gone on the front, but the Sony and Xperia logos on the back will still be there. Weird? There are several phones out there without any branding on the front (iPhone *cough*), so i can't see why it's weird, but you have your own opinion of course

Really not sure what to think
I really dont know what to think of it i wanted to buy the z ultra (the normal one..not google play edition because i cant get it in germany)
and the only thing that holds me back is..i can live with a not so well camery..i only take a few photos but i wouldnt be able to live with a device that just takes every single little fingerprint and scratches easily some people say it scratches easily ..some dont i wouldnt use anything else then my fingers to operate it..and carry it safely in my handbag
is it acceptable or really that bad? else i will probably go with a note 3 or a nexus 5 + nexus 7..so i have a small device on the go and a nexus 7 for watching streams/videos at home
I've got some scratches in the middle of my screen from one mistake placement in the same pocket as my keys. Surprised since the screen is supposed to be fairly resilient, I'll be looking into a protector shortly.
that kinda scares me x.x even if i would never put the device next to my keys..it will be most likely in that power cas einside my handbag x.x

You didn't scratch the screen. You scratched the anti shatter film. It's still annoying though, so yeah, you should probably get a second protector, or just remove the ASF and go naked (it's glass after all, so it won't actually scratch unless you're really unlucky) or put the new third party protector on the glass. One protector is bad enough (how it feels to touch), so i can't imagine using two
Hello everyone,
Today I wanted to test a pencil on my device.
I tried to make the pencil itself very soft.
I made no pressure on the surface of the screen.
Now I have additional scratches.
(I got already some before)
I also have a begining of removal of the coating.
What should I do now ?
Contact Sony and ask for replacelemt of the filter ?
Buy a filter and remove the stock filter and put this one ?
What have I to do ? (I never put it outside from home)
Is this one is alright ?
http://www.befr.ebay.be/itm/Genuine...esCasesPouches&var&hash=item338af4aa42&_uhb=1
(I will remove the old asf)
and this one is alright ?
http://www.befr.ebay.be/itm/Tempere...ptopAccessories_RL&hash=item417f0926e8&_uhb=1
wich one do I need to order ? (I'm ligin in Belgium)
is there any that worth it ?
If the scratch is not obvious,better don't change.
Both is glass,I think no difference between them.
With the tempered glass installed,the pencil input may not work correctly.
And warranty will void once you remove the front anti shattered film.

Hello,
how looks your device ?
I used my Z Ultra for a little over a week before putting a screen protector on it. This resulted in small scratches to asf, after putting the wet apply protector on the scratches were not noticeable.
