Recommendation for Tempered Glass - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

Hi people,
I've Just bought a Redmi note 4 32Gb Version.
I've been searching a lot for a perfect Tempered Glass Protector for Redmi Note 4 but I am confused with all the reviews where users have mentioned the small size glass due to 2.5arc display.
Can anyone here recommend A glass protector that properly fits on note 4 Screen like edge-to-edge , covering all the screen area.?
Regards

Honestly speaking, I never found a good tempered glass. After I tried a few, I came to the conclusion that they are all too thick, have edges where I cut my finger or feel uncomfortable to hold the phone.
That's why I decided that I only use thin plastic film for my phone's and I never had to regret.
From my point of view, the idea of tempered glass on a phone is wrong and does not provide any benefits.

Hi, I initially received 2 different brand standard tempered glass type that hardly came to the edges.
So I ended up buying this full face one from AliExpress.

I can't post a link in Q&A so I'll PM you the link.
I tried taking some photos for you but because it covers the whole screen including the 2.5d edge it's not even visible. I'm pretty happy with this one.

Thanx Wilderone
Will post feedback when I get the product

Which is the best glass screen protector. Any experience with Anoke's?

Over a year has passed since the Note PRO came out. Which is the best screen protector as of today? Has any of you used the Anoke Tempered Glass Screen Protectors 9h hardness, 2.5d Rounded Edges, 0.3mm Thickness? It seems to have received very good overall reviews.
I am still using a plastic-like screen protector from Samsung. I got it as a gift from an electronics store. The problem with it is that it is a finger print magnet. Also, as I use the device as a phone, it is easy to see lots of saliva droplets as I talk to the screen sometimes.

I wont recommend a tempered glass as the extra thickness will interfere with the S-pen

I used a tempered glass that i bought from aliexpress for 4.4 USD
It is good but finger prints are there too
I applied it for protection only
There are no problems with the spen as far as i know
I was going to post the link but the item is already removed
Still perfectly satisfied with my Mime tempered glass screen protector. I have no significant issue with pen use. The only issue is the gap around the bezel but I don't care one iota about that.

Tempered Glass Screen Protectors

The case thread got me thinking about tempered glass screen protectors and I wondered what folks where grabbing in preparation for the phone's launch.
I've had friends use Nillkin with no problems so that's what I bought, but this phone is a lot of firsts for me so I'm sure there will be some lessons involved
I would link it but my post count is too low yet, whoops!
Ordered this OMOTON for wife, but have not installed. Does it have a protector already on it or not? Wife said she didn't feel one or any edge?
"The phone does come with a pre-fitted screen protector, but that also doesn't have any kind of oleophobic layer."

I just peeled the thin screen protector off and installed the OMOTON protecter. You have to gently use fingernail and peel uo from bottom. I think it was nice of Honor to put something on screen but theirs is more to prevent scratch where hopefully this thicker one will help with a drop also.
It was pretty easy to install and push air bubbles out to make it look natural.
Installed this on two phones last night. Man it is so much better. Amazing difference.
I bought the Sparin 9H Premium Tempered Glass Screen Protector. And this thing is crazy. i can hardly even feel it on the phone but it is extremely strong.
I pre-ordered my honor 5X from Amazon and at that time they didn't carry this on Prime.

And I got that OMOTION glass but this Nillkin nearly perfect fit. Its protect the front and back camera too. Worth the extra $ for Nillkin. So returned the OMOTION and now on the Nillkin

How does it protect the back camera? It's one piece of glass for the front screen.

Thanks. I didn't see his pics. I went to the Amazon link. They need to add his pics to their item for sale. lol
The factory installed screen protector is really bad for oily finger prints. I took it off and the naked glass is better not nearly as bad as the screen protector.
I compared the glass on the 5x to the glass on my Moto X 2014 and they look exactly the same as far as oily finger prints. Now my daughter has a Blu Vivo 5 and that screen is amazing hardly pics up any greasy
prints at all.
I ordered the Omoton glass and have not installed it yet, but the Nillkin does look better as it has individual cutouts for the camera and speaker.
So the Omoton did not fit well? did it just not go all the way to the edges? maybe I will order the Nillkin as well , it's only 9 bucks
Should have picked up the one for the camera lens. It scratched and cracked with a case on it...:crying:

There is a 1mm gap on each side so screen guard doesn't stick out at the curve. For link search Ali express for nillkin Lenovo zuk z2 screen guard. They have 2 varieties. Matt and clear.

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?

If by good one you mean tempered glass having no gap in any of the side then.... Sadly No..!

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
I ordered this FAD-E™ Full Coverage Tempered Glass Screen Protector for Lenovo Z2 Plus
It's fitting perfectly and looks awesome. No effect on touch. Please note it's not matt. It's clean tempered glass.

Is there the rainbow effect while watching videos at an angle?
Please post close up pics of the tempered glass applied on the phone, with the screen both on and off.

Using one with Z2 Plus. Very bulky and uncomfortable. Beats the whole purpose of going for a 5 inch phone. Makes the already thick Z2 Plus even more thick

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
If anyone is interested in having this bumper case: https://www.ebay.in/itm/New-Lenovo-...ck-stand-Hybrid-cover-case-black/142458738739 let me know. I bought one for myself but find it a bit bulky and that is just my individual preference. Perfect fit with all cut outs. Same one mentioned and used by this youtuber here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQ7nXahWVUE&t=2s
The ebay seller has increased the price for some reason (may be low stock). Actual price is 169. Someone preferably from Bangalore, if interestedm PM me

Tempered Glass Screen Protector and Case Recommendation

I am considering picking up a OnePlus 5 since they have the student discount right now and am wondering, what is the recommended tempered glass screen protector and case to protect the phone.
I love Nillkin tempered glass screen protectors for the OnePlus One, Nexus 5, and Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, but it seems they really dropped the ball on the OnePlus 5. The screen protector doesn't even cover the whole screen! Then there's Orzly which covers the screen but the quality itself is not as great. So who does that leave then? What would you recommend?
I also don't know what case to choose. I was thinking of picking up the Nillkin Super Frosted Shield Matte case, but I wanna see what other alternatives XDA likes.
To be honest, the Nillkin is probably the best at the moment, it's got full face adhesion unlike a lot of the others which only have adhesive on the black borders, which means the main screen hovers slightly above the phone's screen which gives a rainbow effect when you use it. It's also compatible with pretty much every case because it's not pushing up against them like a lot of the others. The only thing about it is you can see dust around it as it doesn't reach the edges but this doesn't affect it's use and can be cleaned with a good wipe (I recommend these).
Spigen cases are nice but seem to be the worst for lifting the edges of any larger screen protector (including the official one).
The official screen protector from OnePlus is not compatible with the Otterbox case so remember that when you make your choice, both companies have stated this.
As for cases my personal favourite is the Spigen Neo Hybrid, I just love the way it looks.
I agree with @djsubterrain. Go for the Nillkin.
But if you want a tgsp which covers all of the screen, I recommend you this one : https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...-automatic-adsorption-tempered-glass-t3660494
This tgsp is full adhesive, not only on the black borders. It fits perfectly with the sandstone case from OnePlus.
If you go with glass screen protector, don't get any of the ones that go edge to edge, they all suffer from the same problems such as dust getting underneath and the rainbow effect. As the others mentioned, the Nillkin is your best bet for glass.
As for cases, Spigen always makes good high quality cases and they have a couple of models available, I just recently got the Ultra Hybrid Clear case. I know clear cases tend to turn yellowish with time, but I like to show off my Dbrand skins.

Clear case, tempered glass screen protector?

Is the included clear case tempered glass screen protector friendly, or does it lift it up from corners? Any recommendations for screen protector? And if that included one is no good, also recommendation for clear case is appreciated.
im using the MOFI full screen tempered glass screen protector with the factory case without issue.... just too bad the MOFi looks like a oild slick in the middle of the screen otherwise it would be perfect
I bought a Spigen case which is, as usual, nice and protective.
For the tempered glass, i bought a Force Glass ($$$) which is really nice to touch without fingers trails, but finally it's ****. Like all the S8/S9 (not dome glass) it's only glued with the edges and not very well, so it'll become dirty fast . And if you look at it under a bright sun you don't see anything.
I don't recommend to buy this "way too expansive" Force glass! I regret it! 2$ glass will do a better job.
Am I not right in thinking this phone comes with a screen protector already on it.? Mine looks like it does, obv don't want to try and take it off in case it is one lol... Came with a clear case too
Cheap tempered glass + clear case (Huawei case)
I used the clear case which came with the phone as for tempered glass I used a cheap (£1.99) from eBay.
The tempered glass covers the screen almost perfect. It isn't edge to edge, but it is wide as the screen.
The glass hasn't got a good oleophobic coating, but is better than the plastic one and has adhesive on entire surface. (i would add a photo but I've got no clue how?
Hi all, is there any spigen neo hybrid alternative for Huawei P20 Pro?
Hi, any issues getting the tempered glass on with the Spigen case? Thanks

I've applied Zabra tempered glass (Amazon purchase) without any bubbles but after applying the Huawei clear case, edges came out, disabling my screen touch features.
Highly not recommended to buy this "Zabra full glue 9H tempered glass screen protector"
On of the best tempered glass for P20 PRO is Nillkin the hall series..
I have try Nillkin amazing H (3mm cover real screen leave 2mm at the edges case friendly) Nillkin amazing H+ (2,6mm cover real screen leave 2mm at the edges case friendly best clarity) & Nillkin CP-MAX 3D (3mm Full Cover edge to edge full adhesive full glue)
They are all fit perfect with excellent fit & clarity
No bubbles, no rainbow effect, no halo effect, no dot matrix, no fingerprints
I prefer CP-MAX 3D for full protection with original clear silicone case or ipaky case
I have bought the Spigen tempered glass screen protector and Spigen Ultra Hybrid Crystal Clear case recently
those side adhesive screen protectors suck!!!
whitestone is loca based and because of that full adhesive and it will be released in a week or so on amazon. great feel to the proctector, just like the original screen, no 3d dot matrix, no problems with touch sensitivity, almost no fingerprints and if they are gone with one wipe and so on.
i will get it asap since it's doing fantastic on my note 8 for over 9 months now.
i got the spigen rugged armour and i love it. Feels great in your hands. its like velvety soft. Using this with the stock screen protector, which i feel is sufficient for me
i just wish spigen released the ultra hybrid clear case with a built in kickstand for this phone.
I've never used a protector on my previous phones but opted for the Spigen and think it's great. Had it in five days now, doesn't get too messy from fingerprints and only issue with haloing was my fault, had to take it off a couple times as I want happy with how I put it on. Used it in direct sunlight and was amazed, after one Samsung and two Sony's I can actually read my phone outside"

I bought the Spigen Slim Armor case ( £15 ) and Spigen Tempered Glass ( about £8 ) and am very happy with both. I moved from Otterbox a few years ago when I couldn't see a decent case that I liked. I've had 4 Spigen cases for various phones so far and have never been let down to date
ESR products for me fits perfectly
It looks like there are not much good options for this phone (compared to my last one), I have ordered the spigen ultra hybrid (transparent) & tempered glass combo.
I'll post photos with the result
Do some regions not get an included case? I just bought this device yesterday in Canada and there was no case with it.
Spigen crystal clear case and Nillkin Amazing H+ for tempered screen. Trust me, this glass protector is the only one I have found to not retain fingerprints and to stick perfectly and evenly on the 20 pro. If you correctly align it with the edges of the screen, there will be no air pocket whatsoever. It's impressive.
Anybody know the brand of this screen protector and where I can get one? I'm most interested because, well, it's full screen and not just adhesive around the edge. But also the guy mentioned it works with the case I'm going to be using ( UAG ) .
