Scratch repair? - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories

I have someone willing to sell me a Note 10 Plus (512 GB Model) for $600. It has one annoying little scratch that you can catch your fingernail in on the screen. I'm curious if there is a liquid-apply screen protector or a filler out there one of you all has used that can take care of the problem.
Thanks in advance!

I have the exact same question

Throw a whitestone dome glass or similiar SP on it. That'll "bandaid" it enough whereas it'll appear nothing's there.

Agree with this....probably the cheapest solution available....from what i understand the liquid adhesive should fill the scratch and make it less visible.
Did you happen to check if perhaps the seller still had the stock screen protector still installed? I had a nasty scratch on mine..finally removed it and the glass beneath was pristine.

Any good screen protector will hide moderate scratches.

Consider replacing to glass in the long haul when doing the battery.
The plastic screen protector IQ Sheild is a wet apply, works well and may help conceal it nicely.
It's inexpensive and relatively easy to install.
I had a dog awful horrible experience with the Whitestone glass of Doom. They sent the wrong everything and didn't even say sorry. Took forever to refund.
Offshore shipped trashware... NO.
I was impressed in a most unpleasant way.

I think the OP is asking if the G3 comes from the factory with a screen protector on it like the anti shatter protector on the Sony Z and Z1
To the OP, no it doesn't come with one from factory.
Mine came with a screen protector from canada

The device is provided with a Corning Gorilla Glass 3 glass protection.
If you scratched it although that protection you better had then to apply a tempered glass like i.e iCarez or Ultimate Shield instead!

Was it new or second hand because the G3 shouldn't come with one.
I installed the iCarez 0.2mm tempered glass protector on mine. Cannot tell its there. The Verizon shipping plastic was getting rather chewed up.
It's very tough and easy to clean i say:good:
before mine got a replacement digitizer for dead pixels, it's always naked for a month.
in and out of jeans pocket countless time, no scratch at all:fingers-crossed:
and about factory screen protector, i think it doesn't have any. from the looks of "lg g3 drop test" in youtube

keys destroy only the size case and back..it wouldnt destroy the screen...dust and sand like particle kill the screen..
gorilla glass is harder than steel..but if you wipe it with a little tiny sand/rock...you will see how it destroy the screen

No screen protector?

Do you guys think that the S7 edge screen is good enough to go without a screen protector?
Asking because I bought one yesterday and the side of it has a lot of dust already. So not sure if I want to have a screen protector on it. Or can someone recommend a good protector for the edge.
Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk
What does dust have to do with not wanting a screen protector?
None of my phones will ever be "naked". I usually get Spigen products but their screen protectors didn't have good ratings for the S6 Edge so now I don't know.
I just want something for my edge don't be so slippery.. I have to figure it out which one ... Some advices ?

The sides of the protector keep raising up and collecting lent and dust. I thought this would probably be more of a problem with the edge since the screen curves. That's why I thought maybe to not have one on it.

Not using one, saw a few drop and scratch tests, and it seems to be scratch resistant. Just using a case.

In another thread someone reached out to zagg. There estimating sometime in July lol so yeah I wouldn't wait too long for that to happen
I've ordered some dirt cheap tpu screen protectors but not too sure how well they fit until they arrive. The reviews were really good but they could be fake seeing as not many people have the phone. I'll wait and see.
They will be coming. For the S6E, it took a while b/c of the learning curve. The S7E glass should be coming out much faster.
I've been using glass on my S6E for about 7 months now.

I havent decided on a screen protector yet, maybe i'll just use a slim case, or tempered glass on the back, but not sure about the screen tbh...
I remember taking nails and trying to scratch the old iPhone when they first came out with gorilla glass just to show people how tough it was... We are on gorllia glass 4 now. I'd be far more worried about cracking the glass than scratching it...
Well, I own the s6 edge plus and I managed to get a ton of microscratches on the screen. That said, I only see the scratches in direct sunlight with it not really being visible indoors. This time around, I might go with a screen protector to avoid those microscratches. I'm assuming this is the same GG4 used on the front of the edge plus.

Tempered Glass?

Hi,
I bought a tempered glass screen protector for my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge which also covers the curved screen edges. I tried putting on a fitted case and BOOM, the tempered glass broke. I guess it caught on the glass.
Any tips on my next buy and attempt? [emoji23]
Sent from my SM-G935FD using Tapatalk
I've heard that they are all pretty much no good. I looked for awhile when I had my S7 and nothing really worked.

The minimal protection cases work fine with tempered glass screen protectors, but you will have problems with virtually all combinations of rugged protection cases and tempered glass screen protectors.
Huge discussion in the Accessories forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/accessories/curved-tempered-glass-screen-protector-t3320688
Basically it has been decided that all of the tempered glass screen protectors are the same Chinese crap, just purchased and branded by different companies. Even well respected companies like ZAGG are guilty of this. The one from GPEL is the least bad, but it is still not great and they keep delaying their revised version.

You could always use a case friendly film protector. Of course this will not protect the glass from breaking, just scratches. I'm using this combo with the UAG case, rather have the drop protection that just the screen.
How far has the film protectors come? I've used one many years ago and the feeling was sluggish, like my finger sticked a bit to the film.

There's a very long, detailed thread on TGSPs in the S7 Edge accessories forum. Suggest you look there.

Fingerprint Scanners friendly Glass Sreen Protector ?

The Protector I use on Note 9, Techmatte amFilm, says will not allow fingerprint to be used.

I pre ordered Skinomi film. Works on the S10 fingerprint sensor, so its good for this as well.
is it Samsung Galaxy Note 10 comes with Screen Protector pre-installed ?
The new Whitestone Dome specifically states it works with the ultrasonic fingerprint reader.
Had the Whitestone Dome on my Note 8 and absolutely loved it.
Spoke to local samsung shop, pre installed is plastic film.

You will find many now. Hv used gadgetshieldz screen protector on my S10+. Worked perfectly with the Ultra sonic fingerprint scanner. Saw them taking pre-orders for Note 10 plus screen protector. Might be useful.
https://www.gadgetshieldz.com/galaxy-note-10-plus-screen-protector.html
Anyone has experience with Olixar glass protector? Can't find it on Amazon. One interesting note is that ESR has a screen protector for Note 10, but not compatible with the ultrasonic fingerprint. What is that for if not compatible?
It will come with a thin film protector pre installed (same as s10) but it's pretty much good only against scratches. Best bet for a glass is probably the whitestone dome. Already a video YouTube for note 10 and fingerprint sensor works flawlessly
I think the problem whit PET or plastic films is that leave marks made by S-Pen and that's why i think tempered glass is better solution than PET one
It looks like the following will be introducing 2 fingerprint friendly TGSPs for the Galaxy Note 10 and I would assume Galaxy Note 10+ at some point in the near future:

I asked a UK dealer what was available, was offered this with a fingerprint scanner cutout!

Anyone knows how is the review of Whitestone on s10 or s10+? Last heard couple of months back that they are not very good with the fingerprint detection with whitestone. But I see from the site itself that they claim that they are the only certified ones that works well with the fingerprint sensor.
I am hoping that it will be good for note10+ .

I temporarily took leave of my senses and allowed a Zagg kiosk tender to talk me into their plastic Ultraguard after he promised a free upgrade to their glass protector as soon as it comes out. I will probably rip this plastic one off before then because it ruins the feel of the phone screen for me and leaves S pen imprints.

ZAGG plastic protectors are the worst. They ruin the look, they ruin the feel, you can't really use the spen.
I order a pair of IVSO glass protectors, will put on today and see if FP works
ok so I just put the IVSO tempered glass on, I can't recommend it. To enable FP sensor the have a "thinned"? circle on the inner surface. It is VERY obvious when the screen is off and still visible when on. The FP sensor does "work" but you have to retrain it and it's very difficult to get it trained.
I will leave it on until I find something better
I' really annoyed at myself for not reading the reviews on all the glass protectors before pulling off the one that came from samsung. Apparently they all do the same thing and what's with the stupid black strip that covers the display, looks like they all do this too? I guess I'll go back to something like what came with the phone.
stuck the Whitestone on mine, followed the install to the letter, fingerprint scanner works better than I've had with the back of the phone fingerprint scanners. maybe about 1 in 10 I get a press harder or cover the whole sensor error when using the scanner, I also setup the fingerprint using the factory fitted screen protector and not the glass one, so it reads the fingerprint the same as the factory fit one it seems.
the whitestone does work, but there is very little margin for error in the install, basically you need to get the glue into a circle to have any hope of it working, then make sure you give the glue time to spread. so I can confirmed installed correctly the whitestone works flawlessly, just make sure you take your time and are 100% sure you know what you are doing before starting. probably better to take a bit longer to install and have a working scanner than something easy to throw on but a faulty scanner.

the black strip is where they hide the glue as they only glue on the edge and create an air gap behind the screen protector that's why they don't work with the scanner, it's why the likes of the whitestone doesn't have the black bars as they use liquid adhesive that bonds across the entire screen protector making a 100% solid air free bond between the phone and protector, so stuff like the sonic sensor can pass through, also likely why they use a weight along the line of the fingerprint scanner and actually line up the glue with the scanner on install to make sure it is 100% connected through.

No there isn't a hole with the dome glass. I had the panzerglass as well with my S10+. The hole didn't bother me too much and was for me a nice guidance to the fp. But I can imagine that people dislike the hole.

The Whitestone is pretty good but messesul the fingerprints . Found it cracks easily too but worth it for the security

I'm currently rocking the zagg glassfusion. Its actually a plastic screen protector that I can honestly say takes a impact and have had no issues with touch sensitivity nor the fingerprint scanner. My only complaint is that it's not a completely clear protector as it has a black rim that goes around it. And the front facing camera is not covered instead I now have a black ring around where the camera sits. Otherwise great protector. I'm a traveling service tech. And my clipboard sliding forward and landing on my note 8 was eventually the demise of it with a total of three impacts to screen.... so far this glassfusion has taken two hard impacts from said clipboard. Without even a scratch....love the protector they just need it to be completely clear.

Whitestone has been near prefect so far using Supcase Unicorn Beetle pro I had to slightly file down the top corners of the case to prevent glass pulling up
Been using mine for 5 months now without a screen protector and not a scratch on it.
I haven't dropped it much though
