[Q] Will screen protector affect fingerprint scanner? - Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers

Hey guys! I've just bought this Mi A3 last night! Now I'm thinking of getting a case and screen protector to keep it safe.
So I want to know if the fingerprint scanner will work propperly when I get to install a screen protector on the display...Do you guys use screen protectors? Does that affect the scanner performance? Thanks in advance! :fingers-crossed:

Both Screen Protector & Tempered Glass will have minimal impact on in display FPS... milliseconds delay compare when not using it at all...

Yes it will work. I have also applied a tempered glass screen protector on mine, and the scanner works with no problem. The screen protector also fits perfectly with the gel case included in the box.

Best screen protector for Note 3?

Most of the screen protecors I have used have been garbage. I hate the peel ones becauase some small piece of dust always seems to get trapped under them. The ones where you use water to stick them are pretty cool, but I haven't found any that are amazing. What I'm looking for is a screen protector that isn't a fingerprint magnent, but also one that is easy to install. Any suggestions?

Have you tried note 3 tempered glass screen protector? They are amazing and easy to apply.
I have a tempered glass screen that I haven't put on yet. They sound good, but I'm worried about two things: the screen being a fingerprint and smudge magnet and if a case would be able to go over the phone with a tempered glass screen.
I have one that I haven't used yet because I am worried about a few things:
Will it attract fingerprints and smudges and will a case be able to fit the phone with that particular screen protector?
I can highly recommend the Nillkin 9H tempered screen protector. It costs around ₹800 here in my country (so should be around 12-13 USD/10 EURO) and it is an extreme value for money product. I really love mine.
Finger print magnet? I don't know! All the hard type screen protectors catch finger prints and smudges, I think, but I won't call it to the extent of being a magnet. With any tempered screen protector one thing a person should do, clean it whenever you get a chance.
If you're truly worried about fingerprints you may want to consider buying an oleophobic coating kit. It's a liquid/gel based coating that is fingerprint resistant. It's already applied to phones in the factory by default, but it wears off.
Most cases have no problem with tempered glass screen protectors.
Spigen is really good. I think they also have a fingerprint resistant one.

need advice

hi i am looking to buy a completely anti fingerprint screen protector for nexus 6. which one is best?
Don't touch your phone when you have greasy fingers? I'm using some random tempered glass from Amazon and it works pretty well for not getting fingerprints but I wouldn't say it's perfect.

The Screen

I just got my Mate 20 Pro. When I opened the sealed box, there was no protective film on the screen. But I noticed that even after using it for the past 2 hours, there are no fingerprints or smudges on the screen. It looks pristine. So what's the deal here? There's a special oleophobic coating on the screen? Doesn't it require a screen protector? Or is there a screen protector already fixed (I couldn't identify any protector edge).. Confused
My phones (the original and replacement for green screen ?) both didn't have a film in the screen, just the back and both were in sealed boxes
So do we need a screen protector for this mob or not?

All unboxing's that i've seen/read don't have a screen protector so that's normal.
Huawei say is scratch resistant glass but a few people have reported minor scratches very quickly.
Screen protector is a must I think but finding one that's compatible with the onscreen fingerprint reader AND a good sticky fit is proving difficult... keep an eye on the Screen Protector thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-20-pro/accessories/screen-protectors-t3856858

Screen Protectors for the Mate Xs

I'm looking for a good screen protector for my Mate XS - something to replace the default screen protector. Are there any good ones worth considering? I'm looking for a scratch resistant screen protector but at the same time doesn't affect the touch sensitivity on the screen.

Question Screen Protector Recommendation ( impact Protection+Fingerprint Unlock)

Dear Community,
Received a S23Ultra and now I am on the lookout for a glass(but not limited to) screen protector which allows for working Fingerprint Unlock. I wrote Glass because i guess something like the whitestone dome would dissipate the impact forces in the glass protector, instead of transmitting it to the screen. Previously i know zagg had a impact protective Film, but now they changed their products too much, it confusing.
What is your experience ? what do you recommend ?
Thanks
My phone is due to arrive tomorrow and I'll be trying these screen protectors. I've looked through all the usual brands I'd use but the S21 was a nightmare with the fingerprint reader so I had to keep it bare in the end. So, I'm going to try these and will report back ASAP.

Thanks, i just ordered the whitestone dome tempered glass, although in the past with my s10 I had it crack in my hose pocket . Most probably will order some other, based on other ppls experience as I expect it not to hold up too long

Thanks for the tip, if that one has no issues with the touch, fingerprint. And no ugly cutout for the fingerprint area then its a good candidate
I bought this.

Can't say I am overly happy with it though. I hate screen protectors with borders around the tempered glass, which wasn't mentioned in the description.
inwas looking at that one.also but you could see the black border in the pics and I'm am.guessingnit only has glue on the outer edge. I ordered the same.brand but the one that has the UV light.

Hello, You are not too satisfied because of the borders or the sensitivity of the fingerprint?

A bit of both. It also doesn't want to stay fully down for me. The edges have lifted but there is a second one in the box. The rear camera covers though are great.
I brought this one, https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004031147265.html
I previously had one from Mocolo and their glass is silky smooth, you can definately feel the difference between other brands.
It also works fine with fingerprint sensor!
So, just to update this thread with my choice at the moment. I installed this whitestone dome glass, fingerprint works after readding my fingerprints(actually worked with the saved ones from the naked glass but slower/had to press firmly) and now it works better, but still noticebly slower than without the protector. Having face unlock with this also on, i find it a good tradeoff.
Tbh , on my s10+ had the same glass and on some vacation found it crack in my jeans , so lets see how long this will last. Probably i will buy some other cheaper brands mentioned here after this first glass cracks. They have a really cool and easy installation procedure, got a nice fit. The glass has some dots to ensure an even separation from the screen glass, so i guess the impact protection is better that way given the depth which allows the forces to dissipate inside the hardened glue.
BR and thank you for sharing your choices of glass protectors with fingerprint working!
I use Zeelot. Fp working good and it's tempered glass

23ultra is more flat... i wonder if the adapter will also fit to align the screen protector. For s22u is half price cheaper than for 23ultra and i already destroy one because of dust and second in almost perfect but still some dust on the edges. I like Samsung protector as feeling with finger is almost like original gorilla glass. And it is not easy peel off on the screen edges... But i can't find anyone who already try it.
Ok I have used AmFilm for years. No issues with it sticking and fingerprint sensor worked. This year with the s23 ultra they are using different glue that doesn't stick well. Screen starts coming off for me after less than 24rs. Good product in the past terrible product now. Unless they update the glue there product this year is garbage.
On a good note I just installed the IMBZBK. Sensor working great and glue seems to be stronger. Still too early to tell but will give you guys an update after a week or so.

I installed the Samsung one. It's plastic not glass. It's fine. Hardly notice it.
I had previously installed a glass one, but I prefer the Samsung one.

Problem with film protector is that it is not very smooth hence hindering playing game which require quick and precise swiping (rhythm game)

Actually so far the Samsung one feels great.
My Ringke lasted exactly one week before delaminating. I will install the spare but then probably move to something else.
