Glass Screen Protector that Works!!! - Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories

Guys I finally found a glass screen protector that doesn't cost an arm and leg and works wonderfully! I have tried tons! This is the best one I have put on by far. Super clear and great touch responsiveness.

Hmm, 8 posts total and at least 2 are about this screen protector...

Ya ? Your point? Lol I have been using xda stuff for years. Galaxy s4 and evo days. But just decided to make an account not to long ago. I don't have much to contribute but I know the community was looking for a good screen protector. So I posted it in places that it would be seen by the most. I don't have any connection to it. I found it while I was looking for my own the other day.

I used it. Sensitivity and installation were great and easy. It was the worst lint magnet though i have ever seen on any product i have ever used though. Also had rainbow effect and cracked within a day with no drop. Fit was great also with an Otterbox Defender. I would definately pass due to the lint and smudges being just horrible.

Galaxy Player 5.0 Screen Protector

I am wondering which ones you guys bought for your players (Obviously those screens are too nice to be scratched ). I got the Zagg Invisibleshield on their cyber Monday sale for $8
Same thing for me, same promotion. Now, I hate those Zagg guys.
But the important thing I guess is that the screen protector works well.
I bought a cheap ebay set, used for 2-3 weeks, removed. They scratched too easily. I like it bare! Have nice leather case, hopefully I won't scratch it... or good ones will become available.

After trying different types of screen protectors for my phone and tablet, I found that it is best to bare it. Screens produced these days are very tough actually, I don't have any scratches on any devices so far.
These days I only get screen protectors to deal with fingerprints... The Moshi screen protectors AT&T carries are great for this. Problem is that since the SGP5 isn't an AT&T phone, I don't get the usual 50% discount on accessories I get.
I had a ZAGG InvisibleShield on my Huawei S7, which was decent, and reminds me I need to eBay that piece of **** tablet. (Whatever you all do - don't buy Huawei products. They've improved build quality a lot, but customer support for their devices SUCKS.)
The SGP5 is a fingerprint/fingersmudge magnet.
I find there are fewer fingerprints bare than with a protector (at least the cheap ones). A bare screen also cleans much easier. I may try one of those matte anti-fingerprint ones. Bare is so smooth and responsive!

Yeah, the Moshis I had on my Infuse and have on my GSII are matte anti-fingerprint - love em'!
I got on my 2 Galaxy tabs Ghost Armor but on my 2 SGS II i got the Zagg but I will take it off and go with the Ghost Armor, I like it better!!
i got a skinomi screen protector and carbon fiber skin protector. the screen protector works pretty well, the skin is really just for a little more grip.
i had some issues with shipping, but, long story short, they had some great customer service, and they ended up shipping me two.
I have seen a lot of comments about Zagg that the screen protector feels rubbery or sticky to the touch. Is that correct? How about the ghost armor.
At this point, I have not put anything on. I like the look and touch of the screen, and I the only pocket that I would put my SGP 5 in is my shirt pocket. It has a folio case for traveling.
I would like to keep the screen protected, but just don't know what to use that I have not read bad comments about.
I have zagg on 2 of my devices and they were both a little sticky feeling for the first week or so, but as you use it, it irons out to a perfect smooth. I love Zagg and I'll get one for every device I own!

I got a Skinomi screen protector and wood skin for my Archos 70. The skin gave it better grip but after 6 months, the skins small pieces kept falling off. The screen protector though is great. Never coming loose. I had a couple scratches show up on it but after a few minutes they disappeared. Also the bare screen was a finger print magnet but once I go this screen protector on it was much better. Loved Skinomi screen protector so much I ordered one the for my Samsung 5 minutes after I ordered the device itself. Screen protector came before the device so I was able to put it on right away. Looks great, finger prints barely show up, never need to clean off the screen, never got any scratches showing up.

Supposedly the Zagg are made of the same material as the Skinomi. I noticed that it does have a little bit of a rubbery feel which doesn't bother me. It also did have a bit of a sticky feel, but that went away after a while. I thought maybe I got used to the sticky feel but I had one of these on my Archos tablet and the sticky feel went away, then when I got my Samsung and put a skinomi on that I felt the sticky again so it was not that I got use to the sticky feeling, it actually went away (The sticky feeling on my Samsung is now gone). I don't think I'll ever get another mobile device without getting a Skinomi screen (or ZAGG if they happen to be cheaper).
How is the quality, I want a protector for my SGP, too
I had a cheap Ebay one on it, but took it off because it got greasy way too fast. I like it bare, I'm not too worried about scratches. I tried scratching it with an exacto knife and it didn't scratch. I carry it around in this case which protects it very well: http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-...GEOQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1327694289&sr=8-1
I also have this case on the device, that gives it a good grip and additional protection.
I use an xtreemegaurd. I like it a lot! Easy to install, and I only have like one or two air bubbles, (not on the screen)
I bought a basic TPU
I bought 2 but I lost one, always good to have the film on it
any tips on how to remove bubbles on screen protectors? they're annoying
Remove protector is easiest way. I've been running bare for a month, no scratches yet! Otherwise if you are careful you should be able to get no bubbles. They are usually caused by lint or dust specks. You can try pealing back and using tape to remove the dust, then roll it back down. I have yet to find a protector that feels as good as the raw screen (which seems very durable)

I am using Stealth Shieldz. They are just like Zagg, but a lot cheaper and come with two. They are like 3 dollars on amazon. Absolutely no air bubbles. It is also a tad bit thinner than zagg I believe. It is a great screen protector. Lifetime warranty. So far so good.

I let the Verizon salesman get me to buy their overpriced protectors (3 for $15...) I really don't like it. It's as wide as the screen, but long enough to cover the Verizon logo on top, and the softkeys on the bottom. It has cut outs for the camera and the light sensor.
What I don't like, is that despite the best efforts of the Verizon salesman (and he did try his hardest, there isn't a spec of dust under the cover) the edges don't stick. This is because the phone's glass curves to the edge. This leaves a tiny bit of the protector that isn't stuck down. Not only does this look bad, but it's also going to attract dust and pocket lint to get in there.
Furthermore, the screen protector also detracts from the aesthetics of the phone, it shows finger prints much more than the gorilla glass 2 does, and it adds a very slight color tint.
I think I'm going to remove it and just go without.
If you like Zagg then xtremeguard already has the DNA protectors available. Current sale means they are only 5 bucks a pop. I have used them before and was very pleased.
That is strange I got the Verizon screen protectors and don't have the issue ..however mine isn't edge to edge .. did he give you some type of aftermarket or does it have the droid stamp on it ..?

The Verizon protectors not covering the entire screen (not edge to edge, only the part that's illuminated) is a deal breaker for me. I'll just keep shopping around.
Also, I have nothing against Zagg. I've used Zagg on two devices and they held up great without any of the (noticeable) orange-peeling effect I've read about. My only big complaint with them is the outrageous price.

The ArmorSuit MilitaryShield Screen Protector is the best!
Are screen protectors even necessary? I owned my DROID X for 2 yrs without a screen protector and it looked as good as the day I bought it. That only had Gorilla Glass 1, it looks like Gorilla Glass 2 is supposed to be thinner is all, and I assume the same strength.
I am not for one going to put one on. Besides I love how silky smooth the screen is, and despise others with their sticky rough screen protectors.

Because of the curved edges the display has, I doubt there will be ones that will cover the whole thing, unless they come curved... I don't use screen protectors, but for those that do, that's most likely all you will get.
The more I use the phone, the more I'm thinking about just skipping the screen protector this time around. It seems pretty substantial on its own and the great, smooth feel is something I wouldn't want to lose (along with the clarity of the awesome screen, too).

Do any of you guys that don't have screen protectors on have any scratches yet? I know it is not supposed to scratch but that's not always the case. I currently have the Verizon one on mine.

Like I said above, I'm currently not using a protector and I have been shoving it in/pulling it out of my pockets and even dropped it on a wood floor (screen down) and no nicks or scratches...so far.

I just can't use screen protectors no matter what. Some of them have a haze foggy look to them, others feel a tad sticky, and sometimes I'll have the tiniest dust particle under the glass or just a small bubble around one of the edges. <<<---- Each, and everyone of these drive me nuts! Also the touch never feels the same, or as smooth. I don't know about most of you, but I'm very anal about my phones, and never had any glass damage, or scratches for that matter.
My final word.... GO NAKED!!!!!!

I work in construction sites a lot. And I use my flash light app a lot. I will sometimes lay my phone screen down above the ceiling. There is always metal shavings and chunks of cement up there and I do not have the smallest hint of a scratch on my screen. I have also dropped it on concrete and asphalt, still nothing.
I honestly think it is a sales gimmick.

I have a Gnex right now... went naked with that and it was a mistake. I have 2 or 3 small hairline scratches and I take pretty decent care of my phone. I dislike screen protectors but I dislike scratches even more.
i've had an old LG Xenon (text phone) i had a cheap case on it which i ended up destroying after repeated drops on concrete, I've even cracked the screen a little on the side with the case and screen protector on, but after all of that i went naked anticipating an upgrade, but i've dropped it off a 2nd story porch straight down onto concrete with screen face down and not even a scratch. I think that the screen itself will survive alot of impacts, it's the rest of the body (as well as the corner of the screen) that can't take the damage.
I'm going no screen protector, but will put a case on it once the one i want comes out. I dont believe it makes enough of a difference to counter the cons of it.
Hey people, just wanted to do my part and contribute.
Xtremeguards https://www.xtremeguard.com/SearchResults.asp?Search=droid+dna has the Droid DNA wet apply screen protector on sale for $1.50 (originally $15) with free shipping. Just enter in code "70OFF1" at checkout. I bought 3 of them. Hope this helps someone. I haven't personally had experience with xtremeguards but I've used xoskins, another wet apply option and it worked pretty well.

Galaxy S8 Wet Application VS 3D Curved Screen Protector options

The S7 was a challenge to protect the screen, and it's looking like the S8 is going to be even harder. Based on what I learned during my search for an S7 protector, it looks like we're going to be stuck using either a wet application or a 3D curved glass screen. Does anyone have any experience with either? I know for sure that I'm getting the S8, but I'm not sure which would be the best protection (and best value).
I'll be sure to update this main post if we can come up with something that is effective.
i dont know which one is good , but i know that one called invisible shield just took too much money from us
they are actually stealing from us , so avoid that one
I've had nothing but good experiences with ZAGG InvisibleShield HD Dry. Honestly think it's the best alternative for the edge screen.

same, i think i tried at least $200 in glass protectors, most failed immediately. the rest, not soon after. I've been using the iqshield and armorsuit wet installs on the s7 edges we currently have. Obviously, it doesn't offer much for impact protection, but not a scratch to be found on the screen.
You would think with the gorilla glass being used here that the need for protectors would go down, not up.

All gorilla glass scratches at a 6 mohs scale hardness level, keys and knives won't scratch it but sand/rocks will most likely.
I had the S7 Edge last year, and ended up not getting a screen protector at all, after spending something like $60 on various ones that didn't do a good job. It was stressful, and I am contemplating just doing the same thing this year, if there isn't an "obvious" choice.
I saw a decent looking Zagg glass screen protector on Best Buy's website. Hopefully it works better than the one they put out for the S7E.
im new to the curves. ive had zagg in the past on other devices and loved the products but they are pricey. just pre-ordered yesterday now to do some research on cases and shields. thanks for starting this thread. looking to get any info from s7 edge owners as possible!

I have the S7 Edge and have moderate success with Glass Screen Protectors. One big issue is the case you use. You cannot use big heavy cases - they break the screens - best to use clear rubbery plastic protectors that have very thin sides - they offer decentprotection and look ok.
Spigen has a good curved plastic screen protector that works very well - not glass - but it fits with more cases than the Glass ones do - honestly, I ended up not using a case at all - and getting a clear glass screen protector that I rate a 7 on a ten scall -
When I get my S8 - I think I will find a clear, curved plastic protecor again. Like the one from Spigen or a few other providers - (Bodyglove has one too) More to protect against scratches than anything else.
Glass always has some issues - even the good ones - very little adhesive - tends to lift up slightly when you type at the edges - sometimes giving you a sort of 'clicking sound' - sometimes touch is effected at the edges too - typing the letters or keys to the extreme sides of the phone can be touchy sometimes....
All in all though it is an awesome looking phone...can't wait. Hope the bootloader isn't locked on the International variant - G950F -
screen protectors are a thing of the past imho.. they scratch easily and make you think that it would have happened to your glass
I do see little scratches on my s7 edge, but i cant feel them, and dont see them unless I look hard.
Apparently the curve is much less prominent on the S8 than on the S7 Edge. I wonder if that will help the glass screen protector situation? Went without a protector on my S7 Edge and ended with a cracked screen, don't want to repeat that but can't deal with non glass protection.
That's my concern as well since this will be my first phone, coming from the S6, that's gonna have a curved display. I was planning on buying another Spigen case as it's the main reason why my S6 is still in one piece, haha, but I've heard that the curved glass protectors don't work well with any cases that aren't the really thin TPU ones, so that poses a potential problem.
Should I even bother ordering any remotely heavy-duty case now, despite not being 100% sure if there's gonna be ANY glass screen protectors that will work with this curved display? If there are curved glass screen protectors that will work with heavier duty cases, it'll be very nice to know as I love having a glass screen protector on my S6 and it'd be a shame to have to give that up with the S8.

You see, I generally plan on selling my phones when I get new ones, so, I honestly care about keeping the phone in as pristine condition as possible, to get maximum resale value. The glass screen protector is the only reason why my S6 doesn't have a cracked screen. I don't understand how people can stand using obviously cracked screens... Every time I see that, I'm like WTF?! Like replacing a screen protector is HELLA cheaper than replacing your entire display. I do have a few minor scratches on my current one, but because it's not my ACTUAL display, it doesn't bother me.

Right?! A glass screen protector saved my S6, so I REALLY hope there will be curved glass screen protectors that'll work with any cases that aren't the cheap, thin TPU ones... T.T
The thing is, that the protector cracks much more easily, as well as scratches more easily. Likely, if a hit was hard enough to crack the screen itself, a glass screen protector is not going to help. They are softer than the phone's glass and that is why people swear by them. Youll spend more money replacing screen protectors then you will making the money difference from selling a "mint" class phone vs "good".
Scratches, maybe the screen protector can help with. Cracks? No way. Manufacturers would also recommend them and not persue gorilla glass etc, if it really was that easy.
I think its just another way for the industry to extract more money from people.
I'm thinking about trying this one. Armorsuit
Their case for the S7 Edge got really good reviews ( 4338 Reviews, average 4 stars) and it's cheap enough if it doesn't work well, not a big loss. It's not glass though, but I've never used a glass screen protector, so doesn't matter to me. And, it's supposedly case friendly.
I ordered a case friendly tempered glass screen protector.

Funny that it has a review without the device having been shipped for it to be installed on. I'll laugh if it turns out to not be very good and they edit it to a 1 star 2 days after the phones arrive "in hands" lol.
It's cheap enough I don't care. If it works yay, if not...I'll swap.

The best Screen Protector for the S8

Hi everybody.
I have been testing a couple of screen protectors in the past and wanted to share my experince with you.
The best one in my opionen is from SAMSUNG itself. It simply has the best quality. If you buy it on amazon its only $11. (http://amzn.to/2xGpWWs) I think for 2 screen protectors thats a good value for the money.
I even made a video review about it to tell what I like about it. If you are interested in it you can watch it here:
https://youtu.be/S2ixW_dvx8s
What are your experiences with screen protectors? I am curious. Share your opinions here
Though mine isn't really a screen protector, I am using the lifeproof case for my S8. Have been very happy with it. The screen protector built into the case is already curved so it fits easily. People have complained about issues with the curved part of the touchscreen and responsiveness. I have not experienced this issue at all. I have always had good luck with the Zagg Glass Protector with other phones, not sure how that is with the S8. Something to potentially look at for people.

I see. THe big problem with most of the screen protectors for me was that most of them could not hold to the edges and came off pretty early. So that's a big criteria for a good screen protector. THe one by samsung still covers my whole front after months which is one of the many reasons I like it so much.
Glass protectors are to thick and make the phone too thick in my opionion. But maybe I should give it another shot..
yes but glass protectors are designed to protect your screen in an accident, the normal film ones you have will not protect your screen from accidental damage, i presently have a htc phone with a glass screen protector on it and it has saved my phone many times as the glass screen protector cracked but the screen underneath was unmarked. I know have a samsung s8, i bought two glass screen protectors from amazon uk, the reviews were made by 72 viewers and almost 100%. i fitted the screen protector perfectly and it didnt stick to the curve edges and was very unresponsive to touch , i sent them back for full refund which i got. most importantly most of the reviews are fake reviews, amazon should stop this. ive left my feedback on amazon.
These flimsy plastic screen protectors make no sense to me. Your phone glass is already harder than anything you'll throw into your pocket. The metal on your keys and **** can't scratch your screen anyway and all these would do is protect from scratches by getting scratched themselves.
People want screen protectors to protect from cracking and shattering the phone not to protect from scratches. The screen is already mostly scratch proof unless you're rubbing it up against a pointy edge of some harder glass which I seriously don't think you'd be doing.
Anyone try Nano Fix it?

best Screen Protector for the S8
I almost feel bad that I underestimated the installation part as I almost wanted to throw the first screen protector I used. If done correctly and patiently, you will have a premium looking phone. Don’t rush it if you don’t want to regret it. So for you guys who are afraid of the “wet installation”, give it a try. It was a bit difficult for me, but I’ll do it again if it means maintaining the high quality of my Samsung Galaxy S8. And besides, the S8.

the guard actually sticks to the device via glue with UV just like whitestone one but is lot cheaper
I don't use any screen protector, I realized that touching and stroking the screen was very sensational.
I can totally agree with you. In the past, I've always used multiple screen protectors.
I have my S8+ device a bit over a year now and I can see only a micro-scratches, which are invisible in the daily usage.
Besides, what's the point of buying screen protectors for, let's say 50$ and replace them every year? I'd rather save this money and buy sooner the new, fresh model.
Hi. I would like to know what you all end up using on your screen. I just bought me an S8+ and are desperately looking for a good screen protector that i can use with a case.
Please enlighten me

What is the best Glass Screen Protector for Galaxy S8?!

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.

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

I purchased these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B078W2LZM6?psc=1&ref=yo_pop_mb_pd
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.
Anyone knows a tempered glass that fits with the Spigen Neo Hybrid ?

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.
