Does anyone have a recommendation for a screen protector for this phone
cheers
After some testing: only one possibility: Brando Ultra Clear Protector Plus!
Good luck!
Hi,
I tried the Brando Ultra Clear but I didn't like it (too slippery, too many reflections); I then bought a Brando AntiGlare and I find it much better (nice texture, more precise screen taps, reduced glare, ...)

IMHO a lot! I removed it!
Obviously, it is a matter of personal preference. The UltraClear (if it is well applied) is almost invisible, it's hard to tell that you have a screen protector on.
The Anti Glare reduces reflections quite a lot, but of course it doens't suppress them completeley... But for me the main benefit is the texture, it gives more feedback on screen taps and it stops the stylus from slipping on the screen.
Has anyone heard anything, or seen a case with a clear flip top screen cover? Something on the order of a Crystal case with a screen cover that can be moved out of the way would be ideal, to me at least.
EXiM SPUC , I using them very long since from my XDA IIi, they are onr from the best...You get get it on ebay..
I've taken it off, everything's much nicer now, colors pop out much more than they did. The question is - I've heard that with the D1, even the stylus would inflict scratches... is HD any different?
from what has been commented here on this forum a couple of months ago is that the blackstone would scratch also, with as little as stylus usage.. dont know if anyone put it to the test, but thats what has been said atleast.
yes iv scratched mine with the stylus
i would recomend using a screen protector
I am going to go out on a limb here and say that the screen protector you took off was well used? Every time I replace my screen protector I notice a huge difference but there isn't a big difference between the raw screen and the "new" screen protector
Yeah indeed. Going to put another one tommorow, after just 3 days without a screen protector I've started noticing very tiny and thin scratches on the surface, from just using the stylus.
Cytokine,
Get a good quality screen protector. The ones on eBay being sold for $1.00-$7-8.00 are not that good at all.
The best screen protectors are of the following brands:
1. Boxwave - www.boxwave.com
2. Javoedge - www.javoedge.com
3. a few more that i cant recollect.
I use the first 2 companies, and they have been the best so far, no problems at all! very thin and very clear.
I have had numerous shields on and one decided to bare back it. I never use anything other then my finger on my screen so no scratches on screen at all. On my other HD stylus did scratch screen. No nail just finger and I still have perfect screen.
Threads already exist regarding this issue and overwhelmiong response was that screen portection was required unless you want scratches

Today I put my nexus in my pocket with the car keys in a moment of stupidity and scratched the protector pretty good. I removed the protector and the screen was fine thank God. I immediately noticed how responsive the screen and hardkeys are. I used to have occasional touchscreen problems but since then everything is perfect, especially the hardkeys.
I wonder if anyone else has had this experience?

What brand protector were you using?
Skinomi TechSkin
My friend works at a place in the mall and I get them for free
Yup, I removed my clarivue a few days ago cause I got a scratch on it. I immediately noticed how much responsive the screen is sans a screen protector.

Were you using the Anti Glare or Ultra Clear?
I switched from the AG to the Ultra and I noticed much better responsiveness.

Yup,but I only got the protector for the anti glare, I probably won't be putting on any other screen protector, I've dropped my phone screen down on gravel without a screen protector and nothing happened to the screen, but the case did dent , so I'm not worried about it scratching
hows ScreenGuardz , ZAGG and lexerd ?
Don't think there is a need for a screen protector on newer capacitive touchscreens (like on the N1). Did you guys see the video of the guy who try to scratch his screen, but couldn't manage to do it? If I did it up, I'll post the link.

I have a protector on mine, not because I'm afraid of the screen getting scratched but because I can't stand the fingerprints and the mirror-like reflection on the bare screen. (I'm using an anti-glare protector, of course.)
Tryed a few but got rid of them. Don't need them for my N1, since the touch screen seems to work better without.
I'm in the same boat as some of you guys. I used screen protectors for a while, normal ones, anti-glare ones etc. I also used a case for a couple of months (2 different ones) and I just stopped using them as well.
Just no need for cases or screen protectors in day to day use. I have one small scratch on the screen and I got that in the first week I had the N1, nothing has happened since (and that's over a year now).
I do keep my Otterbox Defender around for hiking, going out in a boat and stuff like that, but for day to day use it's just not neccesary.
And yes, it's a lot more responsive without screen protectors, even though you do get used to the lower responsiveness pretty fast.
Like many have said, I don't use the screen protector for screen protection, I use it to get rid of the built-in mirror and fingerprint smudges.

Same here. The fingerprints kill me without it. Plus I feel safer giving the screen a good wipe with papertowel and water with the protector on.
This phone is great! Can't believe it was only $200. I bought it for the girlfriend, put Google now launcher on it, and disabled some bloat. When I first got it though, I was concerned with the screen quality. It didn't look very good and had weird coloring to it. I discovered there was a screen protector already on it when I was cleaning the screen to put a tempered glass screen protector on it and removed it. Wow. The plastic protector that's on there does the device a huge disservice. I understand that some protection is better than none, but it hurts the first impression that people have of the device and feels terrible. After removing it the screen and feel improved a lot. Just thought I'd share in case anyone else doesn't know it's on there.
Hmmm, I did not notice if mine had one or not. I already put another screen protector on it too.

I have used and tried all screen protectors in the past from Zagg, Skinomi, Dbrand etc but I find myself always going back to Phantomskinz. In my opinion, Phantomskinz has the best overall feel of any one of them. This full body ultra clear gives the phone an amazing grip and it also gives it this glass like smooth feeling. I paid to upgrade my shipping speed since they just released it on Friday and I am glad I did! This is a wet install process so you need to take your time and wait over night for the bubbles to go away. I love this screen protector because I can keep the natural beauty of the phone with the amazing protection this skin offers. I showed my wife and she could not even tell the full body screen protector was on the phone, lol.
I tested my phantomskinz with the fingerprint lock screen and the SPen and everything worked flawlessly. To all those who bought this Phantomskinz, I hope you enjoy yours as much as I enjoy mine. I attached are some pics… Came out Awesome! Highly recommend!
Where did you buy?

I got mine at phantomskinz.com
One question, I have used skinomi protectors in past devices, and my only complait is that the spen leaves marks that last for some days, does this skin you are talking about is better at this?
I believe what you just said is one of the main reasons why phantomskinz is much better than skinomi and I have used skinomi as well. There are no s pen marks with phantomskinz.
Hi stu5797,
Thanks for the nice review of our Ultra Clear skin. Looks like you did a GREAT job with the installation :good::good:

As stu5797 suggested, our product is pretty unique in the self-healing skinz marking in that it don't get impressions from styluses with normal use. Of course if you push really hard or intentionally try to damage the skin, you can. We will actually be posting a video on our YouTube channel later today showing S-Pen use on the Note 10+ and the lack of impressions. Let us know if you have any further questions
Just saw your video and gave it a thumbs up! I am really enjoying your product! So cool to have the full body protection and so smooth! Thanks so much.
If you would like I can post my review on the Note 10 Forum...
Just wanted to follow up and let everyone know a week has gone by and the skin is still perfect. Really love how the s pen works with the skin and the overall protection it gives my new Note 10.
Just ordered the case friendly ultra clear screen protectors. Hoping they live up to expectations
Awesome. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I enjoy mine!
Pretty cool huh mys3?
did you have to remove samsung screen protector that comes with it...??
Yes, you have to remove the samsung screen protector in order to put this phantomskimz on there. If you think you like the Samsung screen protector you are going to love the new one. It's night and day

Thanks for your recommendation. I originally bought slickrwraps and boy was that a mistake. It was very hard to work with and both films I got went into the trash. I've done wet application before and prefer it over dry so I thought it was going to be easy. But Nope.
I really like this phantomskinz. It was so much easier to apply cause of the plastic film on top of the actual skin. I was able to squeeze most of the water out cause of it and made it easier to align and reposition. It's about 98% as smooth as the glass but I do like it better that way as it makes the fingerprint reader work better since my thumb isn't slipping on the scanner. Scanner works so much better with this on. I got the case friendly version and the screen protector does not get in the way of my spigen hybrid S case. The back skin is still ege to edge which is good. The bottom skin doesn't fully cover though cause of the spen. But I'm fine with that. I've already recommended it to a friend. Thanks again.
Just placed a order for my Note 10 Plus.
Hope it's much better then the slickwrap skin.
I definitely think you will find your phantomskinz is superior to slick wraps.
Are the top and bottom panels of the phone covered like the speaker grills, etc?
If I have whitestone dome, can I get the back protection only?
I'm using Slickwraps matte back with the Phantomskinz only on the screen ... Install came out perfect [emoji108].. I'm just not happy with the smudges on the protector .. I feel it's more than the original from Samsung and my screen naked ...
Note10+
Bought the clear full body case friendly one. I hope when the bubble settles, the surface is going to feel smooth. It says supposely no orange peel effect at all.
