I am hoping Spigen rolls out a Slim Armor View for the GN3 like they did for the GS4. They have a Slim Armor so I suspect they will offer a view case later one.
Cool Note 3 Cases
Love the leather body of the Note 3. DSstyles.com already have many cases for note 3. But, do we still need a case as the leather body is so nice?!

We need alternatives. I personally think the leather effect sounds a bit tacky, especially the stitching (is the stitching real, or is that imprinted as with the leather effect)
I don't want a case (my Galaxy Nexus is looking a bit scratched, but not noticeably so), I just want a plain back like the Galaxy Nexus (or even better, the Nexus 10)
A couple of cases have started to appear on Amazon. This one comes in many colors:

This one in the phone's black or white:

I've gotten Diztronic cases for my last few phones and I'm waiting to see their N3 variant.
I ended up getting the below. was about 20USD including shipping to me
I also got the below but I got the 3x value pack for 15-20USD including shipping to me. keeping in mind I live in New Zealand so shipping is always the dearest for me compared to rest of world
I'll be happy when these 2 arrive, and hopefully before my note 3, last time I recieved my note 2 before my screen protector, I ended up having that overally large plastic crap with the flap at the end (that it comes on with) for a week lol...
I've always been a fan of spigen, their screen protectors are perfect, it fits around everything with no gaps, unlike some protectors where they get to the home button then just drop vertically down, which means below the home button is open to elements... same with near the front camera etc, above it is open to elements... on other screen protectors I've noticed.

I have ordered the spigen ultra crystal and hybrid case too. But I'm not going to keep my hopes up since the stated shipping date is going to be late September and arriving date is mid October. I think I might get the phone before them come. That's why I bought a cheap tpu from eBay also hopefully to cover it before the two arrives from spigen.

Cool case. Sorry you missed out on the Spigen screen protector promo on Amazon.com they had a (4) pack for $1 for a few hours and I ordered (2) of them along with a Glas.tR Slim. I figure its always better to have spares on hand.
yeah just missed out, still though, that price is better than their website price xD

Because I work in a harsh environment (Auto Tech), I've been searching for tempered glass screen protectors since I decided to get the Z Ultra. Looks like my prayers been answered and tempered glass screen protectors are coming from two reputable companies. One from Armorz and one from well known Spigen. The amazon link on Armorz website just went live but is a dead end for now and Spigen is listed for release on the 30th on amazon. Also my Watson flip case should arrive today from Incipio. CANT WAIT TO GET SOOM HIGH-END PROTECTION FOR MY NEW BEAST PHONE!!!
whoa!! Excellent news!! Thanks for sharing!

The Watson case is a great case. Very premium and matches the case. I thought the inner case was gonna have the soft touch coating but it's just hard plastic. Also it covers the dock ports and the sd/sim port. But I plan on modding the case to access the dock ports. The case protects the phone fully against drops.
I just made a pre-order

Damn, but $35 sure is pricey for screen-only protection. I'd expect at least front & back for that price. Although if it feels like glass (as opposed to rubber) and has some anti-fingerprint features, could be worth it.

Looking at their other tempered glass products, they do come with their ultra clear back film as well. So I can only assume that it will come with this as well (though you know what they say about assuming). But it would've been great if they had a glass front AND back option.
I wish they release 0.15mm nano instead of glas.t and back side as well, but hey that's a great news, hope it will arrive to UK Amazon in some time
I've emailed them asking for details on the UK release. I've not heard back. That was 5 days ago.

Past few days I've been looking for any tempered glass solution as the Sony's shutter proof sheet is crap, I've almost bought noname tempered glass from HK using eBay but delivery time is a problem. That's how I've found this thread. I believe there will be options to get this in the UK once it will be released. eBay or Amazon, someone going to sell it at some point

I ordered one as well. I love the feeling of it on my note 3. It's like your finger is gliding on air or butter without the grease for lack of better words.
Thanks for the heads up. Order placed.
Do someone here with tempered glass sp had the Spigen Ultra Crystal sp and can compare them?
Thanks
I have a both of them, the ultra clear is on my nexus 7 and the tempered glass is on my note 3 and it will be on my g3 tomorrow. The feel of the tempered glass is well worth the money. To me all "plastic" screen protectors feel the same. The spigen ultra clear is better quality than most disposable screen protectors and doesn't have that really disgusting feel to it. If you can spend the money go with tempered glass.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Thanks :good:
Can you post a photo of the G3 with the tempered glass or share with us how it fits (if it perfectly fits or the edges is raised because of the screen curve) after you apply it ?
In for one!
Same as ever
I've had one go these on my last few phones. The Nano on the Galaxy S4, HTC M8 & iPhone 5s. Get one of these fitted just right and it lasts forever, just a matter of making sure the screen is completely clean and dust free pre application or you can end up ruining the Glas.t and they aren't cheap.
Wonder if this would be as good as the Spigen... not a bad price,,,, and plenty sold too

I've got mine, but I swear I had to reapply it at least 10 times before I had it sitting the way I wanted. Still got one little spec, but w/e at this point.
Solid screen protector. I can use it with my QuickCircle case. The .23mm is negligible from what I can tell.
Does anyone know if this will he compatible with the international (non-TV aerial) version of the G3? Model number LG-D855.

There are many guides here on XDA that can help you prevent reapplying it over and over. I will try to find the appropriate link to help you out next time. The main points are, clean hands, clean area, do it in the bathroom after you run a hot shower to reduce the airborne dust particles, and be careful.

All G's have the same size screen and layout other than the antenna on the Korean version. So the screen protector will work on all models of the G3 as long as they aren't the G3 mini that's coming out.

I heard Spigen gonna make the products for international version of G3. I think it will be fitted in the international version devices.
Is there any issue regarding rainbow effect or bubble stuff????
Anyone knows?
No problem here, great product.
Does the added thickness of this type of screen protector affect fitment in holsters? I've never used one before.
Hi there! Wow, this thread has really taken off. Sorry for my absence. I've just read through about 15 pages of comments, and there have been quite a few additions, nearly every single one being a disappointment, but the only talked about in a positive light was the amFilm. I'll put that one on the top of the list for now. If there's one that has been talked about heavily, I'll do my best to continue to update here. Again, sorry for my absence, and if anyone finds any other strong ones, please send me a PM. Those actually give me a notification. Thanks!!! Seeing lots of talk about the Zagg protector, also that it broke for someone. Dot matrix is bad on it.
A GOOD OPTION: amFilm (http://www.amazon.com/Protector-Cov...&sr=8-120&keywords=galaxy+s7+screen+protector) 3.3 Stars, has been improved several times. Seems to be a pretty good option.
OLD POST:
The S7’s edges are a little curved, so it will be hard to find a perfect glass screen protector- most of them will give a halo effect, or they will only lay on the flat surface of the screen, leaving the curved edges exposed. I wanted to start a thread where we can post glass screen protectors for the S7 that offer good quality, and good protection. I’ve done a little bit of research that I would like to share with you here:
1) Full Screen Coverage Glass Screen Protectors:
a. Zagg
i. http://www.zagg.com/us/en_us/shop-by-device/galaxy-s7-accessories/
ii. No info on availability
iii. No info on price
iv. Glass seems to be nicely curved to fit the entire phone. Works with S7 & S7 Edge- they have different models for each, it seems. A Thread was posted on XDA saying that a Zagg protector was not very good-- not sure if it's the same product, but here's a link to the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/accessories/zagg-glass-screen-protector-t3331065 - (Thanks, Macguyver) And according to TheLonePoster, Zagg is giving a halo effect, similar to the experience of a screen protector for the Nexus 6.
b. amFilm (Thanks nest75068, bastage)
i. http://www.amazon.com/Protector-Cov...120&keywords=galaxy+s7+screen+protector+glass
ii. Available March 11th
iii. $8.99
iv. 2.3 stars-- dot matrix, some issues with non-adhering edges, "clicking" when touching the screen. 2.3 isn't a good rating at all, but in comparsion to some of these other companies, it's not a bad one to use until better ones come out.
c. SinHong
i. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CHWTNY2
ii. Available now
iii. $25.99 Free Shipping, but ships from China, so it will take a while to receive.

d. IQShield thanks, TehPirate_
i. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01BIH1HOQ
ii. In Stock April 6th
iii. $5.95 + $2.98shipping
iv. Recommended by TehPirate_, as good brand reputation, but as it stands, there is no clear stipulation about whether or not this is full screen coverage. Product is grouped with other products, so we won't be able to tell for a while if this is good or bad. For now, this is on the bottom of the "Good" thread, until otherwise stated. UPDATE: 65% low quality reviews from FakeSpot (http://fakespot.com/product/iq-shie...e-shield-d6c14fa5-59a8-41db-9b68-df6c7cbbe360)

iv. Has good cutouts, but does not cover the complete screen, has Halo effect on the edges. Here is a customer review with an image: www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R24T8GCDIIC5HI
Also, this is grouped with other phones- but this has a plethora of negative recent reviews- might be a good idea to stay away.

The images seem to be S6, not S7. Not sure how much the screen protector covers.
Also, this is in a product variation with six other screen protectors, so we are not going to be able to see the real reviews, if they are good or bad.
UPDATE: 1.4 stars. Bad product.

Not digging the rainbow effect though.", and, "Second the Skinomi Matte, fits nicely. The Edge display looks a bit different under it, like the skin itself is lighting up not like it's a layer on top of the display. Previously used a tempered glass on my GS5 so this is a big difference. Touch feel of the skin is good. Had to remember how to put on a protector cleanly though, took a couple tries to get it done (but I had budgeted one 'practice' protector to burn). Haven't noticed a rainbow effect though."

Thanks for the head's up. I'm not getting my phone yet, but OP's Zagg protector looks pretty good. I'll wait until there's some more comments before I make any decisions. It's annoying that phones are being made with these curved edges-- it makes it hard to find good quality things..

claims to have edge to edge protection and the brand has rather good reviews and a good price.

Thank you to the three of you. I've added all of your input to the OP. Cheers!
Just wanted to add. I have tried numerous tempered glass protectors for my note 5. I could not find one that did not give a halo effect. I gave up trying, frankly did not need the extra protection of the tempered glass. What I did however was buy a crystal spigen screen protector and cut the edges. It worked well, the only down fall is that it does not cover the whole screen.
The Tech Armor one is pretty bad.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Spigen. I have used their screen protectors on a few phones and have never been disappointed. This one says "full coverage from edge to edge." http://www.spigen.com/collections/g...alaxy-s7-edge-screen-protector-curved-crystal
I did they are not tempered though

Thanks, I've updated the post.
I'm waiting for the pure gear one. Worked perfectly on my s6 and my mom's note 5 although it's pricey. If you want to try cheaper ones I suggest glass protectors that are less than 0.3mm the thinner ones seem to have a easier time sticking to the borders.

I'm not seeing a Pure Gear screen protector on amazon-- do you have a link to the product?
And about the .3mm or less- are you sure it's the thickness of the phone that causing the sticking? I thought that would a matter of the amount of adhesive.

I've only seen pure gear sold at tmobile or direct from them at pure-gear.com. Only thing is they're not showing a glass protector for the s7 yet. Hoping it's coming soon.
From my experience of having the g2, s6, and the note 5 and trying and returning 100 cheap glass protectors. It's a combination of how strong the adhesive is and how well the glass flexes over the curve. I tried the Zagg glass for my s6 think it's 0.33 and ya it looked perfect with no halo but the glue was so strong I think it was lifting the glass off of the digitizer. The left edge of the screen was only registering input half the time. I ended up going to tmobile and asked them which one to get and the guy suggested the pure gear one. The glass comes with a jig so it goes on the right spot on the phone but even that can be screwed up. If they do end up having a pure gear glass protector at tmobile I suggest you get them to put it on for you and to keep doing it till you're happy with it.
FWIW I have the regular S7 and the icarez tempered. The screen on the 7 has slightly rolled edges and the protector doesn't not adhere to the edges.

Awesome. sorry for your luck I've added your experience to the OP. Thanks for your contribution!
Hello everyone,
I wasn't expecting to be writing this so soon if I'm honest. Expected a few more days before I got rang by my wife whilst and work and asked what I'd ordered this time.
So the Orzly Pro-Fit Tempered Glass landed in my hands today (as well as their 5 pack film set, but I'll get to that later) and since we're having issues with the Official OnePlus TGSP it made sense to remove that and get straight into this protector and find out whether it's worth you lot purchasing.
A quick disclaimer I'm writing this after applying the glass and using it for a few hours. I will keep you updated in the comments below over the next week on how it holds up.
So, how does this differ to the Official 3D screen?
- Unlike the official 3D screen, Orzly have opted for adhesive on the sides and the top but not in the middle. This was an issue with their V1 screen last year as the Dot Matrix and Oil slicks were an absolute nightmare, less so with V2. After spending a few hours with this one, I can already tell they've made some significant improvements. It feels more premium than the OP3 screen did, I can't see the dot matrix under my house lighting at all and no oil slicks.
- They have incorporated cut outs for the front facing camera and sensors. The official one just has clear glass over them.
My verdict: Buy this one.
I haven't tested many yet (infact just the official and this) but if the choice is between the two like it was last year, this one wins for me. It doesn't cut into your screen and it seems like it'll work with most cases as the fitting of it is very good.
It's also a TON cheaper than the official one and its a twin pack.
Where can I buy?
As far as I'm aware they sell on the various local Amazon sites. Two of the big ones I use are Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk
Take a look at my video here if you want to see it in more detail:

No worries
Great video as usual! Thanks for sharing this! Glad I didn't pay the £18 for the official one after all the bad reports on it, waiting for my orzly one to come now!
I hope I will be able to fit it in this case

@niijonodhg you just saved me $30, thanks! I subscribed to your channel, too
Thanks for this, just confirmed what I was hoping. Another quailty product from Orzly. I still can't fathom why OnePlus made such a terrible screen protector and charged people more for it.

dodged a bullet there, thanks mate :good:
Hmm says won't deliver till July 20th +
Thanks!!! I'll give it a try.
I bought a clear one off amazon before this one was available. It should be here by Friday. If it fits and looks as good as yours, i'll provide a link. If not, I'll buy this one. Thank you for the review!

Be sure to let people know when you try it,. According to what the actual manufacturers are saying about them though, they have written the following...
PLEASE NOTE: The Pro-Fit Glass Screen Protector is designed to work with Orzly Cases for the Oneplus 5. We cannot however guarantee its compatibility with OnePlus 5 cases from other manufacturers
This doesn't mean that it won't fit another case, but it does mean it's risky. So probably a good idea is if anyone on here tries different cases with this screen protector that we let as many people know on here which ones fit with it versus which ones didn't, as that may be our only way to truly guage this. The Orzly screen protector definitely seems like the only tempered glass screen protector that works well with the phone, so whatever I do I'm going to need to base my case around what works with that, so the more info I could get on this, the better. (I'll probably just get one of orzly 's cases anyway at first just to be sure, but would be nice to know what all the options are for later on (if there are any)

I'm planning on making another video, just as soon as a bunch of cases arrive! But if someone else can get to it sooner, then please do!
Thanks a lot for the video. Nice to hear it doesn't cut into the sides of the screen like others. What's your opinion on how deep the fingerprint scanner feels in the cutout?
Seems that Orzly is shipping them from the UK... found a similar one that ships from the united states - https://www.amazon.com/s?keywords=Oneplus+5+Screen+Protector&hidden-keywords=B07378RSWD. I've used amfilm a lot before- never any issues at all.

I've not really noticed it, the cut out is slightly wider than the the fingerprint sensor so leaves a good gap around it.

I had a small issue with the amFilm TGSP for the Nintendo Switch not staying on the Switch properly under heat. But other than that it was reasonably OK.

I've heard that that is from the dock. My son has the Switch and we had that issue. They sent a free replacement that worked for him. Might be worth sending an email.
So Orzly is better because it dont cut the screen like OP official tgsp?
For me i think Oneplus own is better because adhesive on entire visible part, even when it comes about 0.3mm top of sides. I have used Orzly products many years. V2 for OP3T was disappoined mostly thanks to glue on borders only. Screen wont look that clear as with tgsp with full adhesive or without tgsp at all. Also oil slick can come because adhesives only on sides. It depends how greatly you clean your screen.
