Best Screen Protector For Xperia Play Nu-Clear

Okay I thought i'd make this quick thread to help you guys out. Some of you Xperia users don't realize Sony Preinstalls this screen protector or should i say "Shatter Glass" on all of their devices. Is this good? Simple answer, NOT. AT. ALL. When i took the shatter glass off i noticed an increase in brightness and the phone was more vibrant and so i order this Nu-Clear Screen protector off Amazon And it is the best screen protector I have ever had. It is so smooth and feels like its not even there and the phone is just as vibrant with it as it is without it. This screen protector only cost $3 with free shipping when you sign up for Prime on Amazon which i suggest you do because its free for a month and ou cn just cancel it before that.
Heres the link
amazon.com/gp/product/B005KGBCFG/ref=cm_cr_thx_view
To take off that preinstalled shatter glass i sugest ou use something thin and sharp because it's on there pretty damn good. I used a razor blade and started picking at the bottom left of the phone right by the back button and had it off in no time.
Now when installed the Nu-clear screen protector clean the phone with some windex and a paper napkin then wipe off the phone with the microfiber cleaning cloth and blow away all the dust. Then when applying a screen protector i suggest you peel it off just a little so you can align it up with the top of the phone. Once lined up start pulling back the tab little by little while pushing a card(credit card or whatever) to make sure no air bubbles pop up.
This video pretty much shows you what i mean.

Hope i helped because that preinstalled shatter glass was just annoying and was a magnet for scratches!

So there is a layer that comes installed on the phone already? Nice to know I can remove it because I've scratched it up pretty good and I've only had the phone about two weeks. I haven't even really done anything to scratch it either, so I was actually a little upset when I started noticing them.

Be careful, if you remove that layer you need to put on some other sort of screen protector. If you don't you'll notice that if your hands are moist at all the touch screen won't work properly.

maybe its just me, but i got the impression by the OP, that it was more of a commercial for Nu-Clear, Amazon, and whatever that website is he mentioned at the bottom, more than anything else.... lol

I've used two types, the one that came with the otterbox encasement, which turned out horribly.. had a bubble within the screen protector almost immediately, but that could've been my fault, but i had to re apply it several times, which only seemed to multiply the air trapped between the screen and protector. And I used the standard AT&T screen protectors, which are amazing, they're thick, anti smudge, clear, and since they're pretty thick, they don't bubble at all, really easy to apply too. but it's like 16 bucks for 2.
.. and i just realized that op might just be advertising.

me too man, i smell a salesman.. hehe
I bought the phone and shop gave me a cheap screen protector... now I have smudges of fingerprints all over (oily hands).. but then, still better than naked.
Guess I'll change to matte (anti-fingerprint) type after this. Anyone using matte? Is it good on xplay?

It comes with a protector on it, there really is no need to replace it. My screen is perfectly bright with it on. I clean my screen off a few times a day with a little cloth, looks brand new after every wiping. (im also SUPER careful with my phone, and I hate fingerprints, OCD)

It isn't even a screen protector it's ah shatter glass

Just want to clarify that :>>>> the touch screen is whether made of Glass or Plastic? In case of Glass, it's no need to add a screen protector and remove the pre-install screen protector can improve the screen quality and touch response.
Pls advise.

Good screen protector
I purchased a pair and its fantastic so far. Instillation is a bit of a problem if you are impatient like me.
I recommend, its cheap and reliable. plus you get 2 for the low price of 3 bucks

It's a glass screen, but not gorilla glass like on the iPhone. Hence the pre-installed shatterproof film

Scratches on my screen

Hi,
I put my phone in my gf's purse in a pocket just next to her earings (which I had not seen obviously) so my z2 screen got now a very obvious scratch that I would like to remove.
I can't feel it with my finger but it's still visually very annoying.
I tried the toothpaste but didn't do anything.
Would you have any product to recommend?
Thanks for your help!

Damn, thought the screen would be more resistant than that : ( Guess it's not as solid as Gorilla Glass.

Apply a screen protector, it normally helps hiding scratches

I highly recommend grabbing a glass screen protector (Nillkin on eBay is pretty good). It'll hide the scratch *and* feel great.

Yeap...
I'm using Nillkin tempered glass on all my devices and it's awesome.
First thing when I'm buying new device is ordering Nillkin TG.
I still have one I applied on Z1 and it's just like it was the first day.
I'm cleaning my devices by showering them and washing them in water so that's pretty awesome protector which could take all that and still stay proudly on screen

Metal should not scratch the screen.
Sand, glass or any other kind of silicon will though.

I had Nillkin Tempered glass, it couldn't apply/align properly. One edge was not good. Got angry and broke the glass lol. I'm totally OCD about screen protectors.

I generally do not use screen protectors, because even if they are immaculate when you put them on, they quickly become less so. The cure is worse than the disease. The only way I'd use one is if I was very very concerned about resale value and did not care if my display quality was impacted.

Use tempered glass on all my devices and it's awesome. Don't even notice it's there, it just protect my screen. The first thing I order when I get a new phone.

Screen protectors vs tempered glass is a world of a difference. Tempered glass does not show signs of scratches or air bubbles unlike normal screen protectors. They also dont hamper touch sensitivity and save the screen from the various damages we might inflict otherwise..

You can try Glass4M or iTop Tempered Glass.
iTop is quite hard to find but it's verry popular in my country. The screen protector fit perfectly and cost me about $10.

Gorilla Glass 4 is not so perfect. Put on a screen protector asap.

I've had my S6 Edge for a week and several visible light scratches starts to appear on the screen. I was waiting for my screen protector to arrive from amazon. And I was extra careful with the naked device.
This issue is not new. But with Samsung and Corning constantly reassure the ability of improved scratch resistance of the device. I doubt many people will not put on a screen protectors.
So, I suggest you guys put on one now, before it's too late, asap.

I have already ran into that issue some very small light scratches while waiting for my screen protector in the first week. I am extra careful also no clue where they came from.

I believe the glass has some sort of oleophobic coating on it and that is what is getting the fine scratches in it. Not that it really matters because it still looks terrible. But I don't believe the glass itself is scratching.

Corning never claimed that their glass is perfect. I've got a OnePlus one with Gorilla Glass 3 that I've used unprotected for almost a year and it's still scratch free. Your glass didn't scratch itself.

Usually exposure to sand.

Can you suggest me a good screen protector?

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/ya/ref... - Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Matte Screen...#top
I ordered this one. It has matte finish so you can get away with fingerprints, it has healing factor to heal small scratches itself, it is edge to edge means that it will cover the entire screen including the curved parts.
So far so good. I like it.

I highly doubt your 'scratch free' statement. I'm sure it has small scratches on the surface but you just cant see it very clearly. As long as the glass is still softer than sands. There will be scratches.

I am using samsung galaxy s4 since 2 years without any screen guard and havent got an single scratch on screen....dont know how you ppl get it. And if you say there might be small scratches on screen, no even if u see it in bright sunlight not a single one appears

Even if so, I would have noone to blame but myself. Lots of people are capable of using a smartphone for even long periods of time without scratching them up.

Amazon: Screen Protector 5-10 dollars
My local store that sells em: screen protector: 20-40 Dollars
Thats why

There's nothing wrong with the Zagg shield front+back protector you can get from Verizon. I won't even let my phone leave the store without having a screen protector on it ... I know myself, and I know there's literally zero chance it wont get scratched.
Even if you're waiting for a better (tempered glass) screen protector ... do yourself a favor and buy something cheap while you're waiting for it to arrive. Not trying to preach or be a dink, but you can't blame the glass for scratching - blame yourself.

I hope so!
I see a few (scratches) on mine and I have not had this phone anywhere nor put it in a place where something could have scratched it! Compared to my other devices that have been pocketed and used a lot and those screens are flawless!
It reminds me of the camera glass on the HTC One M8. That got all kinds of crazy looking scratches and it was never touched. It was some kind of coating on the glass that caused it. And, too, it was easily rectified with some Brasso...
We're talking really tiny scratches here, completely invisible to content when viewing the screen head on. But when off, especially in sunlight, they are there. It's bothersome like when you notice a tiny scratch or ding on a new car.

I can say that I have the phone since 17th and I'm having extra careful and with direct sun light is where I can see if I have scratches or not. So on the screen I have zero scratches has I had with my s5 without a screen protector at least for 7months but on the s6 edge the screen as I said zero scratches but on the part that has the capacity buttons because it's gold version I can see there some light scratches

Same here, I'm giving the exact same usage to my S6 Edge that the one I did with my S5 and S4, both of them have only a couple of small tiny scratches but my S6E has A LOT already. I'm so disappointed at this as I never required to use an screen protector since my S4.

Got my S6e on 4/17 and so far have only a single, very faint scratch on the screen where I would have to tilt the phone in sunlight "just so" to barely make it out. I'm fairly certain I got that when I dropped my phone at the gym.
Last night I received the Cellbee "glass-like" screen protector, followed the directions as best I could... and ended up throwing the damn thing away. I made sure I was in an environment free of airflow and minimal dust, and it resulted in one of the worst finished products in my years of experience putting screen protectors on. On top of that, the surface had so much friction it felt like my finger was running on top of rubber.
Anyway, waiting for the tempered glass, or at least a standard protector with more success stories. Don't want to waste another $10.

Don't ***** about scratches if you can't afford to spend 20$ on an 800$ phone then.

Galaxy S9/S9 Plus Screen Protector Buyers Guide

Hey guys, For those of you who don't know me I have a channel GravX Reviews... I started it after becoming utterly pissed off with Tempered glass screen protectors for curved screens. Finally Found a good one for the S7 Edge in Whitestone Dome glass...But i wanted something you just slap on with no crazy installation...My channel was a result of that search... Hopefully this can help clarify and save you money ( I'm also writing this so you don't have to watch the video I am working on) The glass i talk about can rang from.20mm to .50mm in thickness..most are .33 mm.
This Knowledge is from testing over 400 kinds of Tempered glass over 4 years , needless to say i have a small idea of what Im talking about-( all from amazon-ebay or allibaba) im sure some of you will be ignorant enough to tell me I'm wrong and that glass truly is different..That's fine your entitled to your opinion .. All I'm doing is trying to help save people money and frustration- I wont try and sell you any product... Ive used the case friendly version for a long time because it was cheap and easy to pop off and on.. I noticed some touch issues...with all of them but i just got used to it.. In the end you get what ever you want. this is just here as a guide
All of these items can be bought on alibaba for 10-20cents for the edged adhesive ones in bulk...the re-sellers send them custom graphics for their boxes and then sell them like they designed it...( so stupid) kind of like zero lemons 5500 MAH battery case... its the same one as the 5500 MAH cases on ebay-
1st. Types of Glass screen protectors for the Galaxy S9/Plus or any protector for that matter..
Case Friendly ( any one that looks like this will be virtually identical to the next ( it might have thicker or slimmer black silk printing) ( which is the Black or white or what ever color they use) They also come in clear
https://www.amazon.com/Protector-Ca...9d-20&linkId=0e4c23f42c372db5a43d5221f96f8d2f
Pros-
Can be cheap
Works with most cases- But not all... UAG <<cough cough>>
Easy and fast to put on
Will protect your phone
oleophobic coating is cheap and comes off fast.
Cons
Edged Adhesive ( they will try to trick you by saying "full Coverage
Micro Dot matrix - AKA "pixel grid Technology" such a stupid term
"precision Grid matrix" "Perfect touch Grid" Its all the same stupid ****- Its placed into screen protectors that don't have full adhesive to assist in the identification of touch on the display by the digitizer panel
Re sellers grossly over charge for them and add Bull**** terms such as shatterproof...or ballistic or bulletproof...explosion proof- Anti Fingerprint ETC
2. Case friendly Full adhesive
They made cheap soft glass ones for the S8 and note 8 and they sucked...one side always had air bubbles.
The new Version is supposedly Hard Glass- Zagg is making the Curve glass elite
https://www.zagg.com/us/en_us/invis...protector/glass-curve-elite-samsung-galaxy-s9
I have it on order and will test it when i get it next week.
Im sure if the product is good it will have more sellers... Zagg does have a lifetime warranty which cost 5 -10 dollars to ship depending where you are, which if the product is good might make a worthy investment...But time will tell
2A- Case Friendly Privacy screens-
https://www.amazon.com/Protector-Ve...9d-20&linkId=ea6e28cfd2269ce9a43cb5ecdab9a914
Identical to the the above mentioned case friendly ones but with an extra layer of Privacy Film ( which makes it thicker
They all have edged adhesive and they are all the same product..Nothing special between sellers- NO MATTER what they say
3. Full Coverage Screen Protectors ( otterbox will sell an Alpha glass version of this that might be cut Short like the Galaxy Note 8 Version...But its the same thing...just a few inches shorter ( all pros and Cons Apply)
So many of these flood the market and they are all the same garbage with Edge strips of adhesive ( the ones for the S9 / S9 plus have thicker bands of edged adhesive...but it will still cause issues..
https://www.amazon.com/Protector-Co...9d-20&linkId=4e1080c6fdae78ae656456b35cc76aae
Pros-
Covers your entire display
Cheap
Easy to put on
Cons
Doesn't work with a lot of cases
( it does work with Casemate ToughStand and ToughMag)
Sellers overcharge for the same ****ty product ( while adding flashy words like Bullet proof or 11 lbs of protection)
Will have touch issues with the screen due to edged adhesive ( it works OK..but some people will notice a degradation of sensitivity
Micro Dots
4. Full Coverage Full adhesive
This is the same as the regular full screen one before but with Full adhesive according the seller
https://www.amazon.com/Improve-Sens...9d-20&linkId=dd8fec54bddaa1443f4d9fc10dee4983
All the Pros as the Full screen Coverage version... Just with " Full screen Adhesive"
Cons if the adhesive is truly full screen would only be case compatibility
5. Case Friendly UV Glass kits ( whitestone Dome Glass and Alibaba Generic Kit)
Whitestone- https://www.amazon.com/Protector-Gl...9d-20&linkId=bdf7dd57946aa39b9e1d31c7b35156df
Alibaba Generic ( you need to buy 10 minimum order to get them
https://www.alibaba.com/product-det...l?spm=a2700.7724838.2017115.30.466f2b24loSX3N
UV KIT
Pros- Japanese Glass All the above use Chinese glass - Yes you can See and feel a difference -
Crystal Clear - no Micro Dot)
Oleophobic coating is high quality and can last up too 6 months depending on usage
Hydrophobic coating can last even longer.
Sealed due to the LOCA adhesive used , meaning no water or dirt can get under the glass
Cons
Expensive
Complicated installation
Easy to mess up
If you get dirt under it your screwed
Cannot be replaced after curing is done ( well..it can but its not worth the headache cleaning it up)
If done wrong and the safeguards aren't in place you can get adhesive in your speaker grill ( use the Speaker covers included)
The whitestone Kit while a lot more expensive then the allibaba generic kit does have a warranty and Whitestone is actively involved in customer satisfaction- they were the first to market this..
White stone has the Speaker Cover stickers which are an awesome touch and requested feature by alot of us. I dont know if the Generic One has them.. I didn't see it on the Images and they supplier has not answered me yet... Since the seller is the factory that makes them for whitestone it should - i think its shaddy AF that whitestones Factory Supplier is selling the Dome Kit unbranded and at a huge price difference...but i cant say im surprised.
If i missed anything please let me know
I didn't include FILM protectors..because they are useless and i didnt include liquid coating kits becuase they are essentially snake oil and will help with water and fingerprint resistance at the most... I will however be testing these products too see if they change in the past 3 years. I hope this helps you guys! Feel free to drop by the channel and show some love and support ( only if you want )

Are there any good glass without dot matrix for those with extra Whitestone LOCA or DIY LOCA?

Cheaper UV light solution aka whitestone dome from china can be found here, and you can buy only one if you want, not 10 minimum like alibaba.
Also full screen adhesive protector aka the Zagg curve elite can be found for half the price here as well.
I bought both and will report back after i receive them.

Don't get the one you linked from Amazon. That one only covers the flat part of the screen. I had something similar on my S7 Edge and you can see the rainbow effect along the edges of the screen protector.
The one on Aliexpress is $29 with UV light and $25 without. I might consider trying it.

Sorry. I wasn't being clear enough in my description. What I mean was that the screen protector doesn't cover the edge screen where it starts to curve down, only the part where it is completely flat. When you swipe to bring out the edge panel, you will have to run your finger up the edge of the screen protector, like a speed bump.

I figured that was the case, probably same vendor as the amazon one as they all come out of China.

Thanks for this excellent write-up. I'm curious why you say film protectors are useless? I have been using ZAGG's invisibleSHIELD HD Clarity on my S7 and found it to be excellent. In particular, I use a thin case (Ringke) which only provides a slight recess for the screen. So when I've dropped the phone square on the screen, I've noticed that in spite of landing on pebbles or rocks, the invisible shield took the brunt of the force and eventually "healed" itself (warped back into shape) with no damage to the glass.
I've been contemplating moving to a hard glass screen protector for a while, but have been very pleased with the level of protection I've been getting from these invisible shields. What are negatives versus glass?

The invisshield seems to curve around the glass for their note 8 one so maybe their s9 one will curve as well? They use a full adhesive method but without the plastic placeholder and at $20 ish. I haven't ordered one yet. Hoping Gravx can compare it to the other protectors out their. Guy might send one out for review to Gravx if he asks for one.

I don't think any of them actually do. That's why I don't like the black boarder. I ordered a Bodyguardz to try
Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk

Removing my Whitestone after the curring process and cleaning it was fairly easy. Soaked the glass in 70% isopropyl alcohol for an hour or so. I was easily able to scrape the glue off with my fingernail. Soaked it a bit longer and then used a microfiber clothe soaked in the alcohol to further clean it and get more adhesive off. (all adhesive was removed) Reapplied the screen protector with the 2nd bottle and it went on perfect. YMMV

Do not buy this product
Despite following the instructions to the letter this product did not sit flat on my phone , rather it only stuck in the middle.
I strongly advise to avoid the invisibleshield glass cover for s9+ and wait for something better to come along. Do NOT buy

Zagg is honestly a RIP off. They always lie and use marketing bs. A ton of large youtubers over 1mil subs have proven this multiple times. I'm surprised the community at xda one of the more knowledgable forums out there keep buying it. Not to mention our own GravX doing some good comparisons for us.
Save yourself the $50 and the $15 shipping replacement.

Here is the Klearlook tempered glass. I have provided photos and I will update about the touch sensitivity experience along with if the glass stays onto the display or if it has cracked. In my limited experience, the feeling of the tempered glass does feel different than having no tempered glass. The glass is compatible with the Spigen Rugged Crystal Slim Clear Case. It does appear to be similar or exactly like the Caseology glass since it comes with that installation protector.
Edit: It is a pixel dot matrix screen protector. So far, I haven't noticed any touch sensitivity issues yet but I will continue to update.
Edit 2: Touch sensitivity hasn't been an issue for the past few days so far. I also used pointer option in developer tools and I didn't see any dead spots. Tempered glass hasn't cracked. Oleophobic coating is not good. Tempered glass is very reflective and can make scenarios such as looking at the phone for navigation to be a visual challenge.
Edit 3: It has been a few weeks since I have owned the screen protector. It has not cracked or lifted. I haven't had issues with touch sensitivity (keep in mind I have increase touch sensitivity option on). Seems like a dust magnet. I will continue to use this tempered glass as the positives out weights the negatives. In the end, it protects my phone and it has not got in the way of my touch screen experience.
Edit 4: I dropped my phone at the gym with a case on and part of the top is chipped. The rest of the screen's integrity is in tact. Oleophobic coating is considered decent.
Edit 5: A few months since I have owned the phone and tempered glass. After I dropped it from the gym, I replaced it with a new one. I only have touch screen issues sometimes (typing on keyboard). The tempered glass has not peeled off. It has not randomly cracked. Decent to poor oleophobic coating. You can see the finger prints easily. Not difficult to see when using it as a GPS.

Here is the Klearlook tempered glass. I have provided photos and I will update about the touch sensitivity experience along with if the glass stays onto the display or if it has cracked. In my limited experience, the feeling of the tempered glass does feel different than having no tempered glass. It appears this is not a pixel dot matrix tempered glass. The glass is compatible with the Spigen Rugged Crystal Slim Clear Case. It does appear to be similar or exactly like the ZAGG glass.

Do you hear popping noise or clicking noise when you type with this screen on? It's probably edge adhesive, and not good like the rest. To see the dot matrix, you have to look really careful.

Questions on Tempered Glass Screen Protectors

Ive read afew threads and ive come to understand the differences in Screen protectors (tempered mostly) as that's what I'm going on. Also thanks to GravX for this wonderful thread of info - https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...s/galaxy-s9-s9-plus-screen-protector-t3760133.
But i still have some questions that i cannot find straight answers to and maybe XDA can help me answer them:
1) Those edge adhesive tempered glass protectors - do they actually fit perfectly on S9's and allow you to use the edge of the screen - Or - does the black strip (where the glue is) on the glass cover up the usable side of the s9? I ask cause i like the curved look of the s9 - its partly the reason I bought it. Using a protector that cuts it off even slightly is unacceptable.
2) The fact that most options on Ali are edge adhesive is really putting me off - but what are the disadvantages here > Could the glass actually fall off or come loose from **** adhesive?
3) With the full adhesive glasses (which is what i want ideally) - can the glue be removed safely? There is no point in buying two if after the first drop - the glue makes the screen unusable..
I'm scouring Ali atm for full adhesive - full coverage tempered glass. If there are some XDA recommend's- please do let me know.
Much appreciated.

I got a full liquid adhesive tempered glass. It was a cheaper version of the Whitestone dome on Amazon. I much prefer it to the edge adhesive ones I've had in the past. I haven't removed it, so I can't speak to the ease of removal of the protector or the adhesive.

See https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80019983&postcount=169 for the full glue tempered glass screen protector that I purchased on AliExpress. I bought two two-packs (one two-pack for my wife's and another for my S9+). Installed them several months ago and they are still working great. I would definitely buy them again. The kits do not contain an installation jig like that provided with the Whitedome, but if you watch several videos and are careful you can still get a professional installation. I did on my first try, so I still have a spare protector and glue for each of our phones. They are cheap enough (about 1/10th the cost of the Whitedome) that you can certainly try again if your first attempt isn't acceptable.

i got the liquid too, can be removed with ease if you pull it out, screen is crystal clear, no residue :highfive:

The only thing I hate about these edge adhesive screen protectors is that if you just miss just a tiny bit, you have a huge risk of dust creeping in and it gets annoying. I messed up a bit, and I paid the price lol
This happens since the screen does not stick 100% to the whole screen. Sure, you get no bubbles when installing but you can get a situation like this happen. And it gets on my nerves every time I take notice of it... which is often xD

I bought this tempered glass screen protector from amazon:https://smile.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07C5...abc_0Z5CSCFC1JDNGNTPQB2B?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
It has stayed on my s9+ for over a year
