I think I'd go with that instead of the zagg, as long as the s pen works

I like zagg but they're way over priced. consider the bestskinsever - they're cheaper and in my opinion, the same quality:

Lol that brand name sounds so generic to me. Have you tried it personally?
I bought my Zagg at best buy mobile when me and my wife got our phones this month. they had a promo to get 2 for $35. I immediately took advantage since i hate scratches and smudges on my screen. No complaints really. only thing is, you can definitely tell where the s pen has been when the screen is off. The grooves the s pen leaves are hardly bothersome, but could be annoying to some. The grooves don't seem to ever go away, but are less noticeable the more you use your s pen.

I think its a toss up. The Spigen SGP protectors are pretty nice and are cheaper. The Invisible Shield HD is the best zagg offering: imo the smudge proof one really makes the screen look bad.
Zagg are more prone to peeling in pockets. Heat above 90 and being in the sun will almost guarantee you'll need a replacement. Spigen covers less of the phones edges.
Sorry I didnt have a coupon

I have them on a acer, macbook air, nexus 7 and my note. They are awesome, cheap and the service is great.
Honestly you will be greatly disappointed if you plan on using your S-Pen at all, every time you use it the indentations will build up and the Zagg Shield will look really crappy. Get something like SGP Steinheil, or something like it they will hold up to S-Pen use and daily abuse.
I just ordered me a jgl protector thanks everyone for responding

Has anyone used the Bodyguardz tempered glass screen protectors from AT&T store? Was wondering how they are compared to the Spigen ones. Thanks

I ordered one over the weekend, should be here on Thursday. Over at AndroidCentral there is a user in the GN3 forum who did get one from ATT and she is pretty happy with it.
I got one from the att store. The store lady did a great job putting it on for me. I am very happy with it so far, very clear & smooth, the pen glides smoothly over it. Btw, they only charged me $35 for it.

I've had bad experiences with glass screen protectors, they always crack. It cracked on my SGS4 twice. Kind of afraid to try a new one.

Good price, it's $40 on Amazon, $45 from bodyguards.com.
Does it have rounded edges? If not it's more likely to chip and maybe lift.

The edges are rounded and follow the shape of the phone, not sure if that's what you meant.
I've had it for a week and carry it in my pocket without a case. No lifting problems yet. I guess time will tell as to how well it holds.

No, I mean if you laid it flat & looked at it from the side is the top edge curved so there is less grab when your finger or the edge of a case rub against it.

If you buy from Bodyguardz, you will get 20% off the next order and there are discount codes out there, I found one for 10% off. So I wound up paying around $30 for mine.
I don't think the edges are curved. If I run my finger across the edge i can feel it. But I do like the screen protector!!

using the bodyguard tempered glass. it doesn't have round edges but i love it. it makes the phone look premium. no lifting. would recomended but not for $45. since you can get same quality with rounded edges like bason or spigen. bodyguard also includes lifetimewarranty which is good and it can justified the high price.
I put my bodyguardz one on last night. I found that I needed to let it sit and sort of get itself adhered to the glass. Otherwise when I put my Diztronic case on it the screen protector kept lifting up on one corner. After about 10 minutes it was fine and hasn't been an issue again.
Does anyone use a screen protector under the one built in?

Yes. Just a greatshield hd one. Im paranoid about sand getting in under the case. Had it happen to me on my gnex.

In what way? Rainbowing? I think thats from the defender screen protector. Or something else? What kind of screen protector are you using underneath?

First and foremost let me just start by saying that I typically do not do reviews, but I do consider myself to be a phone fanatic. I've owned several cases for several phones, including iPhone 5 & Otterbox Defender (Pictured) and this is by far the best Defender case that I've purchased. I'll try to keep it short and let the pictures do the talking.
The case fits very tight and the phone will not move at all once its placed inside, so be sure that there's no lint or hair on the screen or screen protector of the case because it's next to impossible to remove it without a flat head screwdriver or knife. The headphone port leaves plenty of room for L Shaped 3.5mm jacks (Beats etc.). The "rubber" outer shell is very stiff and shouldn't get loose over time like some of the older otterboxes. All of the ports and cutouts are perfect. The only thing that i don't like is that there is a rainbow affect from the screen protector, & the fact that it looks like a 7" tablet when it's on my hip. But that said this case was definitely worth the wait and money.
I appreciate that review but I own the case I'm just curious should I take the built in screen protector off or take my screen protector off
Sent from my SM-N900T using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Im not having any bubbing here. I would its the self healing tech 21 protector thats causing the otterbox protecter to stick and make bubbles. I would take off the screen protector and put just a cheap one on. And keep the otterbox one on as it helps keep dust out of the case. Buts that just my opinion based on the thinking that a nice self healing screen protector is going to be wasted under there anyway.

This is what I want to do but nobody has confirmed that it will or will not work. I don't want to drop $60 on the defender and it be unusable. Now that I have had a tempered glass protector I could never go back to a plastic protector!
Anyone have any experience with these? There is a 60% off code ENDOFTHE2013 so I'm wondering if anyone has had experience with these. Link-

Thanks for the info. Do you have any experience with the ones for the note 3? It looks like the protectors wrap around the sides. I just wanted to confirm and see some pictures if possible

I bought a full body kit for my note 3. I only used the back part since only bumpers fit with the s charging cover. No regrets. Can't comment on side protection and don't really recommend the screen protector because I prefer dry protectors.

Is the back part provide any grip?

Yes. About the same grippyness as the back itself just different material. And a bear motion bumper. Still haven't dropped my phone.

I don't like skinomi protectors on anything with a pen input. It just doesn't slide well. Back protection, sure. Sides, sure. Screen? No way.
The only one I did like with the pen input was the HTC view and that had a different stylus.
I've had skinomi for my note 10, note 8, and a bunch of phones. They work well on the phones (S4, s3, droid razr etc) but with the s-pen it felt terrible. Constantly dragging and digging into the skin. Just not an enjoyable experience.
When I initially installed the protector on my note 10, I gave it two days to settle before using it, and it wasn't enough. I had to leave the thing sit for over a week before it was acceptable and that's not something I have the luxury of doing with my phones. I had even contacted customer support and they were the ones to suggest letting it sit for at least a week before using.
I could assume it was just the amount of solution used, but I've used skinomi products enough to know what I'm doing and I won't waste my time using them for anything with pen input now.
I bought 2 of the skinomi clear ones during the sale. Thanks for the fyi. I just installed the sides and the back one for the camera and use a tempered glass for the front. So far I like it and it gives the phone better side grip. Although I probably wouldn't have bought it if it was regular price however. It would be nice if they just sold the sides and the camera one separately.

Hi everybody. My Note 3 was protected by a screen protector. I just remove it right now because the pen let some marks on the screen and its very annoying. Also, I have the Samsung Flip Cover the one with the screen. My question is should I put another screen protection or its not necessary? It is easy to scratch the screen.
Thanks

Screens do get scratched and you must need a protector.
Sent from Galaxy Note 3 SM-n9005
I wouldn't say it's easy to scratch the screen. It is possible though and it's much cheaper to replace a screen protector than a screen. Sounds like you were using a cheap plastic one. I'd recommend you look into a tempered glass protector which will not compromise the look and feel of the device compared to plastic protectors and you certainly won't have any problems with the protector being marked with the pen.

WOW... I have been using one for 2 months now... never scratched it. PLUS you can get a new one for the price of shipping from them as they are lifetime.
I recommend a screen protector with ALL S view cases. they tend cut into the screen at mid point. Temper glass should be better. Get one with smooth edges though.
I have a tempered glass screen protector that I bought on ebay for about 8 dollars. About 2 months ago, and it looks great on the phone. Doesn't compromise the looks of the screen and doesn't scuff up when I use the pen.

I got marks of S-pen. Guys what so you think about the Ishieldz screen protector
Sent from my SM-N900W8 using xda app-developers app
Are the S-pen marks from worn out tips or new tips?
I have the same screen cover and I have no such issue. Screen is as flawless as when I got my screen cover.
Alot of ppl with the scovers have been complaining about the screen getting a press line in it from the bottom of the sview window.
I have always used screen protectors. The one I used on my last 2 devices (including my N3) is Ghost Armor. A bit pricey, but they have a lifetime warranty
i have seen many customer bringing in multiple devices scratched. it almost always happens in situations you least expect. i had a construction worker come in. phone was beat to death and the screen was perfect yet a lady came in after bumping her phone on the side of her car and scratching it bad so you just never know. i got a zagg glass on mine and its awesome. feels just like the screen. why take the chance.

Yup.
Why risk a 6-700 dollar device?
I am careful with my phone and haven't noticed any scratches.
As for the s-pen leaving marks, you could try using a a different tip. Your Note 3 should have come with extra tips, if you look closely they are different.
