I was wondering what everyone else's experience has been like with screen protectors on this handset.
I usually buy a Media Devil screen protector or a tempered glass one like on all my previous handset.
I have found that the nilken tempered glass and another non branded one had the same issue. The top of the screen protector and bottom left just don't seem to take for whatever reason and won't stick down correctly. I have tried 2 nilken and 2 of the non branded one bit had the same result everytime.
With the bad luck with tempered glass I tried these from amazon
3x Vikuiti MySafeDisplay Screen Protector DQCT130 from 3M for Huawei.. For some reason they sent me only 2? Both had alignment issues.
So after all that I am using no screen protection which is not ideal but hoping someone here can recommend a good one.

You just posted there. I'm sure if you read the posts there, you'll see that they also talked about third party screen protectors.

I did indeed. Usually moderators relocate the thread to accessories so it's easy to find. I looked in accessories for a thread for screen protectors couldn't find one so created it. If I had known one existed I wouldn't have wasted my time. Lol. Can you please delete this one in that case. Many Thanks.

Panzerglass is releasing their Mate 7 tempered glass protector in about a month. I contacted them.
I bought a Nillkin tempered glass and guess what, it is not sticking on the bottom left corner I have read the other tread and it seems that almost all Mate 7 has a faulty screen in the sense that they are not totally flat, which causes issues with using tempered glass.
Has anyone actually managed to apply a tempered glass wihout any problems on a Mate 7?
I ordered Stilgut tempered glass screen protector, i hope that it will be good.
Stilgut glass fit perfectly
Hi All,
Nillkin amazing h is a no-brainer. Cheap, easy to buy, hard as nails (check Youtube videos), no glue and great quality

Mocolo Glass Protector is amazing quality.
Proper cut outs for sensors as well. Rounded edges. Very clear and smooth.
Cheap in UK here
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mocolo-Pr...-Protector-Huawei-Ascend-Mate-7-/321644518879
Yeah. Ive got this one http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=321644518879&alt=web and it's all good.
I picked up the TruShield tempered glass version off amazon for my wife and my mate 7 works great.
I have tried a few tempered glass screen protector but I have the same problem with all of them. The lower left screen does not stick. I wonder whether all mate 7 has this problem or it is batch related.
I hope to bring some light regarding the glass screen protectors issues and why some they seem they don't seem to stick properly.
I purchased 5 Mate 7 in total (1 MT7-J1 / 2x MT7-TL10 / 2x MT7-L09).
All of them where having some issues with the glass screen protectors, some of them worse than the others. Usually one of the corners was not adhering properly. It is worth to notice that I tried with different brands.
The Mate 7 is not perfectly flat. If the headset is place screen down on a flat surface it will show when tapping on the corners that the phone wobbles.
In my case I gave up and I will stick with a normal one. Shame for that coz the phone otherwise is great.

Try this kind of tool.. and put it over the infected area for atleast a few hours..preferably over the night and if you are lucky.. the glue will fit..
I bougt the Nillkin without any research, it was pretty much the only glass avaiable in sweden for mate 7 (huawei have a small market share here). However, I was too fast when tried to apply it..so some dust and dirt did manage to go under the glass...so I will have to buy a new glass.. however... my phone is atleast protected now...I bought the glass protector to not make the crack in the original glass worse...
However.. I am now in the look for replacement, I am ok with 2-3 weeks delivry time... as long as it is cheap...Preferably from amazon.com
There seem to be a lot of glass protectors there, but I do not seem to find good tests where different brands are compared...
Have any people done serious research into this matter ?

This one seem to be very popular on amazon
Why do you want to buy a new glass protector? Just remove the protector from the screen, clean the dust and then put the screen protector back.
I have a nilkin tempered glass screen protector and it sticks perfectly. Didnt had any issue with it.
So I'm getting my S8 today but I still don't have anythong for its protection.
1.) What is the best CLEAR case for this device that gives it basic (slim but not too slim)? I also want to have that raised lip for the fingerprint sensor in the back.
2.) For screen protectors, is Temperd Glass recommended for curved devices? If so, which one is best?
I want to have the total cost for these at a minimal as I don't feel like spnding a lot just for the these basic accessories.
Thanks for the help!
Well I wasted almost 30 bucks on screen protectors and the only thing I can say is DO NOT buy any 3D tempered glass that is supposed to cover whole front. The main problem here is the adhesive which is located only on edges of the protector. There is air between screen and protector, which sometimes decreases touch responsivity, forcing you to apply some pressure in certain areas so that the input is registered. Also, most of these 3D glass protectors collide with many cases, so they simply don't work. Personally, just go for some decent case that will secure your device from drop, like RhinoShield or Spigen Neo Hybrid. If you care about design and don't want to lose it, go for something clear and thin/ultra thin
I bought a Baseus case from eBay and lobe it so much. So thin and light and matches perfectly. They are in Amazon too.
Also works with my Darth Vader skin that I have on the back so it still shows that off.

So are you saying not to go with any screen protector at all? Does this apply to the usual "flimsy" screen protectors as well?
Definitely do not buy any harted glass. I have ordered 3D TPU film that has adhesive on whole surface it will ship on thursday so I will tell ya if it works or not

I strongly thinking of going back to no protector. I tried glass and the White Stone dome one was great except the glue on the side kept chipping out and looked terrible. I've got a film protector on now from Best Buy Canada and again it feels so crappy compared to the naked screen. If I remove it I'll still be careful but I do have insurance just in case. I already don't use a case (only a skin) for the very same reason...that I want to enjoy the feel and look of this beauty, not cover to up to protect it for someone else in the future.

I did that with my HTC 10 for a year for the same reason and it has no scratches or micro-abrasions at all. I think it's pretty safe to assume the S8 will be no different. As for going caseless... I wouldn't recommend that for a device mainly made of glass lol. Check out the Supcase review I just posted and try it out if you like. If not, return it or at least you'd have something to put on your phone when you're going somewhere or doing something that may cause you to drop it.
Buy yourself genuine samsung screen protector tpu version and genuine samsung light case.....or silicon case genuine.... all goes 100% together.

Right, I don't have a doubt regarding their genuineness. It's just that there are other screen protectors like the Spigen Neo Flex that costs $8.99 for a 2-pack as well. Same goes for the clear cases, there are others that are significantly cheaper than the Samsung. So I'm just wondering how do these fare with the official Samsung ones. Any thoughts?

I agree. My only concern though is that I kinda want the "raised lip for the fingerprint sensor" feature that the Ringke cases offer and I don't think the Spigen cases have that.

Well, yeah, but I want to know how the Spigen compares to the Ringke. Maybe it is better in terms of other departments and the like.
im using the Ringke fusin clear case.
i absoultly love it, its offer all the feature's im looking at case (thin, clear and lift on top and bottom of the screen)
im gonna order the Spigen liquid Crystal as well. as the reviews says its very good case. (remindes the Ringke features)
I'm using the Spigen Ultra Hybrid. I think it a great case. I had the same one on my S7 Edge for a year.

I just finished installing the Whitestone Dome tempered glass screen protector. Initial thoughts so far is it's the best on the market hands down. Make sure you check for case compatibility before you purchase it though. The price is a little steep at $45 but well worth it IMO. The adhesive is under the entire glass and uses a UV to cure. Clarity and touch performance seem to be spot on. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B06Z...+galaxy+s8&dpPl=1&dpID=51W7ozwV4HL&ref=plSrch

Me too, in Midnight Black color! Very elegant and nice.
Haven't understand yet if the clear back will become yellow or not in time...
About the screen protection, I'm a tempered glass lover. Since I've been using them I've saved all my old phones.
I've tried some curved glasses on my S8, but finally the Zagg Sapphire Curve is available in Europe and I've ordered one!
I know, it's not glass, but it's supposed to be harder then glass, and got now it's the cheapest solution for having a protection this good that adheres to all the device's screen.
And I've seen that it's case friendly and that not that bad in touchscreen sensitivity!
Will let you know

The Spigen ultra hybrid on my S7 Edge stayed pretty much clear the year I had it. I'm using a Armorsuit Military screen protector. It's not glass but it will do for now. It's really difficult to find a tempered glass protector for a curved screen. It seems like all if them are junk. I wait and let others experiment until there is one that really works without issues.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XXTRWBL/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
For clear case, my recommendation would be the Spigen Ultra Hybrid clear or the Otterbox Symmetry Clear. The otterbox is slightly chunkier but not much.
As for a screen protector I've tried the Samsung official one and the Spigen Neo Flex.
The Samsung one is a dry application and therefore is extremely difficult to get on right without dust spots. I tried it on 3 different phones and didn't get either of them right, even with the dust removal sticker.
The Spigen Neo Flex is a wet application which is far better cause when it dries out it leaves no dust spots or air bubbles. But imo the corners aren't a perfect fit for most cases. Again I tried a few and even with Spigen cases the corners lifted on all of them. A little trimming of the corners with a scalpel solved this. This protector isn't as clear looking as the Samsung dry film but is of the "military material type" and so self heals with any minor dings and scratches. I'd trim the corners a little (follow the contour of the corner and trim off a mm or two) before applying this for best adhesion on all corners for a case. It def has a slightly different feel to screen but at rhe moment I think this is the best solution of at the moment to protect out precious S8 screens.
Hope this helps.

I Told you man, Donot buy from anywhere else other than the official website. In Amazon, more than half of these trink glasses are fake. I Know because a friend of mine tried for his Redmi Note 4X from Amazon. The Product was so fake that you can tell from the packaging itself. Then he came to know about the Official site and bought again and he was pretty much satisfied with the quality. See youtube for reviews of the trink glass bought from the official store. I Myself will try it out once the matte screen guard that came with the phone is worn out by scratches.
So did anybody find a good one for it?

I have purchased front and back glass from trinkshop official website. The quality is ok. But the main downside is that the front glass does not cover the entire landscape and just like any other tempered glass available anywhere it leaves the edges and top sensors uncovered. It's definitely risky to not apply a back case, but both side glass films provide a fantastic look

I come from using an oneplus x for 2 years with the exact same problem regarding tempered glasses. The reason there is no tempered glass with the perfect fit for these round edged phones is because manufacturers don't intend for people to use one on their phones nowadays. The last six months with my oneplus x I was using the phone with a rigid case and no tempered glass or screen protectors and it still is good with no scratches even after a few screen facing falls. I think the best setup for Z2 plus is the same approach but incase you want some scratch resistance use scratch guard films instead of tempered glasses. The only case i found online that covers the Z2 Plus' screen by giving a little rubber covering on the screen corners (like the spigen ones) is the generic kick stand two-part case. Those cases also give a good look without the kickstand part (picture attached below).
Finally got perfect tempered glass for lenovo z2 plus

Beware. These full coverage tempered glasses look and for good but provide no screen protection except for direct scratch resistance. These are not full glue ones. Only the coloured parts have glue and on minor impact these glasses come of. Telling from RN4 experience with multiple friends ..
True protection from tempered glass comes from the ones which are glued thoroughly to the screen.
Glazedinc.com makes such full screen edge to edge full glue screen guards and their Redmi note 4 screen guard is quite popular - probably the best in India but I didn't find any product for Z2 Plus on their website. Maybe people can request them. I already did

My mother and I have had the S8 since release. We have never had an issue with breaking the screens until this phone! The Zagg one on release day absolutely stunk as the adhesive was only on the curved part of the protector leaving the whole screen non responsive to our touch. Since then we have been daring and been going without one. Within the last 3 months my mother dropped her phone twice. The phone was replaced at a $149 deductible the first time. I refuse to pay it again until I can find a screen protector that works!
Please help!

Doesn't make since to make another thread, but I'm looking for something that's similar. Preferably one that is case friendly, doesn't ruin touch sensitivity, and doesn't have a weird cutout for the sensors at the top. I bought the Pro Glass one in the above post, but it wasn't case friendly.

As far as I know, having tempered glass only won't help when the phone drops.
For myself, I watched several people try drop testing S8 using rhino shield bumper case (can search on YouTube). I too, have one, but since I don't like the glass back getting smeared with fingerprint, I go to otterbox defender (a hefty one), and finally to spigen tough armor (the one I currently use).
For record, I have dropped my phone twice (forgot whether using defender or rhinoshield), without any tempered glass, and the phone is still working without flaw.

Neither is wasting money on cheaper versions that just don't work. If this one actually prevents screen damage without compromising the user experience then it's a good investment.

What case are you using with your GOBUKEE?
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B074SJV133/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I got these. There is about ~1mm gap between top and bottom edges clearance with spigen tough armor on. The sides of the glass are almost right on the edges of the case. I don't recommend using it without a case or with rhino bumper bc it doesn't go to the edges and feels weird bc of the extra gap. It does come with a tool that clips onto the phone to line it up perfect. I'm happy with it.
I'm using a Spigen case. I do have an S8 active, so the case is different, but Spigen makes great stuff

It may be a PET protector but it does the job and is super thin and case friendly. Another aspect is that it's cheap! 3 for 8 bucks and was easy to install.

The best glass for S8 is Gobukee full adhesive glass. Can be found on Amazon. Quite a new brand but the product is awesome..I am enjoying it.

Spigen offers a tempered curved protector that fits. Mine cracked after 2 months, still usable. Experienced a few spots in the corners where touch responsiveness is decreased.
What is the best Glass Screen Protector for Galaxy S8
I've always admired how my friend’s phone looked so seamless and smooth, it always fooled me thinking that his screen protector came with the phone when he purchased it. To my surprise, he installed it himself. Now I’m not a bad friend, but this guy can get excruciatingly stupid at times. I thought if someone as dense as him had managed to somehow not mess up with wet installation, how hard can it be?
I got the Ounier screen protectors, a squeegee, a tiny piece of cloth, a manual, and a small bottle spray solution. I’m the old-fashioned type, I never even knew that “wet installation” is actually a thing if not for my buddy. All these items looked so weird to me. I’ll never understand how people come up with this stuff but if it works, then it's fine with me.
My device is new but I know all the tempered glass protectors are awful for this phone and dropped fast from the screen...
Whitestone dome is expensive for me.. but it was worth it?
I want good screen protector please.. glass is not good for this phone? maybe I need clear protector or matte? silicone?
UV light is a good option or the liquid water scratch the screen?
Please advices!!
Search on AlieExpress for Liquid Tempered Glass for Galaxy S9. You can even choose Case friendly or normal type of glass. Price is around 10$.

I'm using the Whitestone. It is expensive but if you do it right it will be the only one you need for the life of the phone. I have one on my s9+ and on my note 8. If you but an 800€/$/£ phone there is no reason to cheap out on a screen protector and case.
this whitestone is good? but I read of users that have bubbles after a few days of use..
why so expensive? durable for drops?
how is the warranty?
Bought a few protectors from aliexpress for about 1.5€ each. Finally managed to apply the third one correctly and its absolutely great. Will definitely not protect against drops and shattering but they do their jobs against scratches.

thank you, i bought two
You can use any other tempered glass with UV glue, just as whitestone and avoid buying the expensive one, just use loca glue and a cheap (but good) tempered glass, google "DIY tempered dome glass for S9".
I ordered the Whitestone and installed it.. amazing screen protector I ever used..
I use the IQ Shield LiQuidSkin. It is relatively thin.
I use Crocfol screen protectors since ages. They're a foil so they go around the edges of S8 and S9 perfectly. Work as good as a tempered glass protector. Spigen has a similar product.
They're long lasting, self-reparing, don't take anything away from screen sensitivity. A bit pricey, around 25€ for a set with 2x front 1x protector plus something they call "liquid glass" which you can apply directly on the screen to eradicate micro scratches and seal your screen again, but absolutely worth it. I applied the first set immediately after my S9 arrived half a year ago and still have it on without it coming off around the edges or getting dull from scratches.
I had an accident and dropped my S8 full speed on concrete out of hand height, all it got was a tiny crack on the backside (2mm maybe). So if you don't like glass protectors this might be a very good choice for you.
I ordered the Spigen Neoflex
skinomi this is my go to screen protector. works with any case and when u scratch it it comes back to the original shape, more like gel on top though you don't notice it. It has life time warranty, easy to apply and the price is decent. all those aliexpress , ebay screens dont make sens any more. i mean you spend a 500 600 on a phone and you wont spend 10- 20 for something decent at least.
I used this and it works just like WhiteStone at a lower cost. Liked it so much I purchased two just in case.

I've got the supacase unicorn beetle. Has good case protection, very light and built in screen protector. Couldn't ask for much more.
Hi I ordered this screen protector and it seems nice ( https://www.ebay.com/itm/For-Samsun...var=442089289527&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 )
Search term : "s9 tempered case friendly full glue"
It's very glossy, not fingerprint resistance but it sticks very well to the glass, bubble free (except the red circled areas ), and absolute no problem with touch responsiveness (I enabled touch sensitivity).
Now it's been about a week installed so drop, scratch and water resistance testings are not done yet
Works good easy to install no Fuss. www.belkin.com/us/p/P-F7M061/
I am really impressed with this $16 TGSP from Amazon, US.

It is a full glue and was an easy install and feels better than the Whitestone Dome Glass screen protector that are on my and the wife's Note 9s. It does not show grease from fingers, like the Whitestone, either.
I wish they made it for the Note 9.
