Q: Best screen protector for Tab S7 Plus? - Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Accessories

I tried some PET screen protectors that were horrible to put on. They also felt really cheap. I would try some TPU screen protectors, but don't see dry applicable ones with an alignment tray or something. Anyways which is a good clear tempered glass to try?

I hate reflections but will a matte screen protector destroy the beauty of the Amoled screen?

I tried a tempered glass screen protector but it didn't adhere to the edges of the screen

Spigen Released their tempered glass screen protector last month and ive installed it on my tab S7 Plus. Works great and super easy installation since it comes with the no hassle install kit. Spigen has always worked great on all my tablets and ive notices the screen protectors do not scrathch as easily as other brands. I've applied them to my Tab S2 and Tab S4 and both have not been scratched since i've applied them. They also dont fall off or have any raised edges.

If you are looking for an amazing screen protector, that is not tempered glass, take a look at Skinomi's screen protector. Every time I buy a new device, I buy a skinomi screen protector, cuz it feels amazing to the fingers, it is super resistant, super easy to clean, very hard to scratch. I have been buying Skinomi since the HTC HD2 era, if you need pics, let me know

Do these work with the finger print reader? I bought a generic brand off Amazon and it won't work with the fingerprint scanner.

Yes, it does, it's the one i'm using right now... I always use the same brand (skinomi), and works with fingerprint

I just installed the Spigen GlastR EZ FIT on my S7+.
Recommend you get into a 100% dust proof labratory to install it. I got about 3 tiny particles on the screen after installing. It was a real pain to use the dust remover sticker all the way into the central part of the screen to get the big ones out.
Anyways, perfect fit, and perfect alignment from start. A bit fiddely to get off the back of the adhevsive side of the glas, without touching it and without exposing it to more dust in the air.
Got min from Amazon for about 18 euro.

I have the Benazcap glas protector on my S7+ and it fits perfect and I got no bubbles when installing it.
Was quite easy to install, but I'm a quite experienced user when it comes to screen protectors.
The prize was good and it seems that there are no problems with the edges, so I can recommend it.

Scratches on my scratch resistant screen

I've owned my Samsung Focus since 12/26/10. I use it daily. I am careful not to put my keys and phone in the same pocket. I will admit to using my shirt to wipe smudges off my screen. It does not have a screen protector.
Is it normal to have so many small scratches all over the front of my screen?

I'm starting to wonder if there aren't some differences in Focii out there. I've only had mine a month, but it gets wiped, most often on the leg of my jeans, and has yet to have a single scratch, small or otherwise. I'll count myself lucky, but you should check out the gorilla glass thread going on here.
What may appear to be scratches could be the opposite of a scratch. Deposition of materials on the surface. I have a Motion Computing J3500 Tablet with Gorilla Glass. It looks like it has scratches sometimes, but it it actually fine marks from the digitizer pen. Some good hard rubbing with my microfiber cleaning cloths gets the job done.
Picture proof.
I'll use the suggestion of wiping hard with a microfiber though
edit: says I can't link you guys to the photo:-/
Quote from Samsung:
"Dear Paul,
Thank you for your inquiry.
We do apologize for the inconvenience. Apparently, the Samsung Focus is not using Gorilla Glass and we did not know how you utilize the use of your phone. If there would be scratches we advise you to use a protective screen on the phone.
Thank you for your continued interest in Samsung products.
Sincerely,
Technical Support
Kaye"

bummmer.....I have had mine since November 8th and no scratches. No screen protector.
I believe you still have to be carefull. Nothing in your pocket with your phone.
You have to use common sense here as NOTHING in this world that says scratch resistant is really scratch resistant.
Some sand particles in your pocket can scratch any material besides diamonds.
Huh, this phone has to be using Gorilla glass. I've taken my car keys to the screen just to demonstrate it to other people, haha.
That said, my phone screen has no scratches. It wipes clean and looks as good as the day it came out of the box. There are a few on the back cover, but that's it.
Had my first spill
First drop yesterday onto pavement. A few almost imperceptible nicks on the chassis, but the screen is as smooth and unblemished as day 1.

Hah, mines the same way. I dropped it twice now. Hit the back cover, flipped over, then proceeded to slide face first on the pavement.. the front black bezel looks like dogmeat but the glass is perfect I finally got a case just to protect that super soft front plastic surround..
I'm on my third Focus. My second one I had for over a month with a ZAGG screen protector on it. When I took it off to send the phone back to AT&T, the screen and back cover were MINT. They aren't cheap at $30, but I honestly think it was a very good investment. It isn't reusable, but has a lifetime warranty.
Had mine since Christmas eve.
Just wiped off all the smudges to take a look at it.
Looks like black ice to me.
I'm really not sure how I did it.. but my screen got a scratch on it. As a result I bought a screen protector from clearvue.
But anyway, here's a a picture I took to prove it:
[edit... okay looks like I need 8 posts to link a picture.. I'll update this in a bit]
I dropped mine on the gravel at the gun range on Sunday. Now, I've got a tiny chip and a crack across the screen. I guess I'll find out how much Samsung charges for repair soon...
Michael.
unfortunately, scratch resistant is not the same as scratch proof.
I heard Samsung put a layer on top of the Gorrila Glass to prevent fingerprint and improve smoothness of surface. Also I saw someone with Galaxy S tear that layer off(Just like screen protector). It might be the same thing for Focus.

Maybe it was Nexus S that have oleophobic coating on the screen?

gorilla glass scratches ??? YES!

Well i stratched mine ... actually my wife did. She picked a few shells from the beatch thru them in the bag where my phone was. Next thing that damn screen had scratches on it
Next day went and bought creen protector. I hate that because even if the screen is unbreakable, you can scratch it.
I do think that in normal use, that won;t happen but you you have a wife that loves sand ... and shells ... take care and good luck. I believe that sand will scratch that screen.
I would kill my wife
Gorilla glass is not unscratchable or unbreakable. Its advertised as stronger and less likely to scratch, but how much more stronger and scratch durable? My dell streak's gorilla glass shattered from a 3 foot faceplant. Granted it has a bigger surface area, it still shouldn't have shattered.
I never remove the factory screen cover until I have a skinomi or other type of protector ready to install.

There's also been three reported screen fractures. Two from falls, one from sitting on it. So it's definitely not unbreakable. I've got a Zagg Invisible Shield full body suit on mine. As far as encasing your phone in vinyl goes, it looks pretty good. It's dead if I drop it but at least it will die pretty.
http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield...es-screen-protectors-covers-skins-shields.php
I stopped using screen protectors when I got a DHD and never had any scratches on it, nor have I on my SGS2. That said, I treat the phone like it's my baby! I suppose accidents can happen to anyone though.
Regards.
Having a screen protector will actually reduce chances of a glass shatter tremendously cause of the fact that the adhesive quality of any screen protector keeps the glass together making it less prone of shattering.
As far as scratches go, gorilla glass is definitely more resistant to scratches, but it never hurts to put a scratchguard on it, does it!

I'm interested to know how that full body suit works. Surely with the back not being a flat surface you can't put a protector on it like a screen? Also, does it protect the edges?
Check the accessories thread on screen protectors, the invisible shield sucks on the sgs2.

Most light scratches are usually the coating on top of screen not the actual glass.

Well, reading the posts in the accessories thread was 15 minutes of my life I'll never get back. Bottom line is people are looking for different things. I love those with a $700 phone buying $5 crap off of eBay. Anyway. I was looking for something to protect the phone, not just the screen. Here are some pics of my phone wearing the Zagg's. No protector is totally invisible. You can make up your own mind.

it is not the glass itself that scratches but the coating on top of the glass... I have the same scratch. If i clean the screen with a microfiber cloth i cannot see any thing but when i run my fingernail on top of it i feel uneven surface.
And if my finger is oily THEN i can see the scratch.
Guys.. this is absolutely annoying. I dont see it but i know that it is there and it is driving me mad
I already ordered my zagg screen protector. hopefully i will have it in a few days and ill forget about the whole thing

Scratches on your Xperia Arc/Arc S

Besides the Crack Issue on Xperia Arc, Lets Discuss Scratches on our Xperia Arc
My Arc is Misty Silver, I've been using it for 8 months, I don't use Casing(Leather Case/TPU Gel Case etc), just straight to my pocket, No Keys, Coins etc
My Arc don't have cracks or chrome peeling, some minor scratches on the screen though(shatter proof sheet still intact)
I have tried using ZAGG Ishield Maximum Coverage for Xperia Arc, but it didn't last long, It collects dirt easily on the sides, transparency becoming less, and some parts are peeling, also it can't protect it from the scratches I got, so I have decided to remove it after 2 months of use.
I have a friend whose using a soft pouch included in the box, but his arc also suffers the same scratches on my Arc

Here are some screen shots​
And there is a hole on my Shatter proof sheet, I don't know where I got it.
my 4 months old misty silver arc had many scratches on the chrome(bezel and button) but no peeling.
And my 8 months backcover had many scratches too but i cant see it if
you not look really close/u need brightness to see it.
I bought my arc in april and they replacing it in october .
i always use capdase softjacket and sometimes SE pouch
My midnight blue one has the same on the battery door opening cutout and the back cover is scratched all over with fine scratches - only visible in direkt sunlight and the same is on the painted front parts. Screen and chrome parts are fine.
Using it naked and putting it in my pocket jeans without keys or anything else.
Really cheap stuff if it scratches from that.
It's 8 months and 4 days old

My midnight blue arc has some scratches on the screen and back cover, I kinda gave up using a screen protector, I might remove the shatterproof sheet if it gets really bad. A crack has unfortunately recently appeared above the light sensor, but other then that everything else is fine no peeling of the chrome, though the battery cover at the end when you pick it off has paint chipped off, no biggie though cos its just the back cover, if it gets worse I'll just buy a new one.
Since I got the phone in June I've used a neoprene case, which does the job well. I'd recommend this over getting gimmicky (and horrible) plastic covers which make the phone feel big and look ugly
You can get new battery covers on eBay for £5. I'm going to buy a couple as spares as my cover is getting a bit scratched.

The screen feels a lot better. Really easy to use. Smooth. But definitely is not easy to clean. It's a fingerprints magnet. About scratches, I've been using it naked for just a week on my pants pocket. I seriously doubt it will get a scratch. It is not a gorilla display, but the glass seems sturdy enough.

tempered glass screen protector s

The 3t does not have any good options for glass screen protectors because of its curved screen. Does anyone know if the 5 will suffer the same problem?
I'm sure it will. The screen looks more curved than the 3/3T.
The tempered glass is available on the official store, with the following note:
Please note that due to the curved nature of screen of OnePlus 5, this screen protector is designed to ensure a gap variance of up to 0.9mm around the borders from the edge of the screen.
Never had the 3 or 3T, had the 2, but I will receive the 5 with the bundle that has the protector, exciting to see..

Is this with the tempered 3d glass? I still have my glass laying around, haven't put it on yet, should I be worried about the result, no matter how precise or careful I put it on?

I ended up taking mine off in the end. Mostly just because I had too many dust bubbles (my cat was literally climbing the walls while I was applying it so cat fur everywhere).
There's not much room for error on the cutouts, but also it's not too hard to line them up really.
The only thing I don't like (aside from the edge visibility) is the dip between the glass and the home button seems enormous to me. It is already depressed on the phone, so the raised glass makes it that much deeper. I guess that could be a pro for some people.
I went with a wet application film screen protector on my OP3. Will do the same for my 5. But that won't be until the factory installed screen protector starts looking ragged.
The Orzly one fits perfect as seen in this video:

He mentions that its due to the bezel being limited by the protector.
Also, there is this gap in the side, possibly from the bending of the screen?

Yes, that's exactly the effect I was seeing. I thought it was due to the thickness of the protector, not the curved edge. My N6 had a curved screen and the glass protector I had didn't do that.
If you hold it at an angle, you can see the part that's cut off.

I am a huge fan of cases and I like buying and changing them frequently. I recently got the S9+ and a Spigen Ultra Hbyrid S transparent case.

I checked Amazon UK but I didn't find any cases I particularly liked, so what are some of your recommendations?
I have the ringke rearth fusion case, rhinoshield bumper case and a tumi case. I'm currently using the ringke case because it's clear and gives an illusion of less bezels than the other two but gives enough protection for my use
@corwin_amber Wow.. that's one of the best looking cases I've ever seen. I believe I had a case made from the same material back in the day for my iPhone 4 or 5. I might have to order one from Amazon UK because it's the same price after discount and of course delivers a lot faster by Prime. Thank you for the suggestion, I really love the case!
You are welcome. And of course I would do the same in that... case (haha).
Zizo bolt doing great job.
OtterBox Pursuit Series.
Rhinoshield Solid Suit in black
Nillkin Synthetic Fiber case.

I'd definitely go with that one.
I am rocking my favorite case of all time, Diztronic.
Anyone have Obliq Slim meta case?

Have been using Nillkin Nature series on my every phone since Sony Z3. Love that it adds literally no bulk, shows the phone as it's transparent and the quality is top notch. Protection is not the best but I am very careful with my phones and never broke one in last 10 years.
OtterBox Defender.
Love the case, fits really well and feels good in the hand, port covers should limit the dirt and dust that gets into the ports and as a tradie the belt holster is essential.
Only issue I have with the case is that because the phone and case is so big you actually have to look at the phone when you're putting it back in the holster otherwise you probably won't get it in first go or your shirt/jumper/jacket will get stuck in between and the phone won't lock in and it'll hit the deck. My phone has survived several drops because of this issue, however it has so far not taken any damage... What had happened a few times though is that I've scraped the screen against the locking tab on the holster whilst shoving it in, this has resulted in a couple of micro scratches on the screen, these are only really visible when I clean the screen really well, a few fingerprints are all it takes to cover them up.
I probably should install a decent screen protector but all of the ones I've looked at are either a pain to install (Whitestone Dome and others), only have adhesive on the edges, have "grid/dot Matrix technology" (how is this a positive feature, many manufacturers advertise this way) or are only tpu or other non glass film.
Also I'm too lazy/OCD to actually get around to fitting screen protectors even when I do buy them.
Im using the Unicorn Beetle Pro by SUPCASE.

I've had several low height drops and even 1 drop from ear level onto pure asphalt!!! (I'm 6' tall) and the case protected the phone beautifully... Not even so much as a scratch. The case adds a bit of bulk to the phone but you get great protection.
Just a side note, I ordered this case while my Galaxy s9+ was still on preorder waiting to ship, and this is the only case I've used on it... Still holding up great. I'm considering taking the plastic screen protector out and getting a Whitestone Dome screen protector.

HI
Very nice case.
In your opinion, would the case interfere with a tempered glass screen protector?
Thank you

No, not at all. I use the case with whitedome glass screen protector without any problem.

Official Alcantara one, alternating with the clear and silicone one, from Samsung's official lineup.
Still, the best is the alcantara case, hand feel is so smooth.
