[Q] Any good plastic screen protectors out there?

I haven't seen a "perfect" glass protector yet nor do I want to pay like $30-40. What do you guys recommend for an affordable plastic screen protector? It doesn't have to be completely edge to edge coverage, but I would like it to cover more than just the viewable display portion.

The iloome light has no halo, it's 9h in hardness and can be picked up for under 30 dollars. I've had mine since late February and have had no issues.

I was under the impression that all glass protectors leave halos or if you're lucky enough, few might be halo free. I didn't want to risk that. Does your screen protector stop right at the black display border or extend out a little bit? Also, does it reduce sensitivity if using moderately thick gloves? I already have increased sensitivity on so I can use gloves with the phone in the winter and don't want to lose that feature. Thanks for your suggestion.

The protector stops at the edge of the display. So it's not one of the edge to edge protection protectors.
I don't wear gloves, but if it works with plastic it would work with glass.

Might put this on the maybe list. I'm still not 100% convinced due to the amazon reviews.

Here's a video from Flossy Carter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S28PgCFU_lY
If I had another camera I'd take some pictures of mine, but I have no other phone with me.

Invisibleshield HDX, going on 6 months strong. I had the iloome first and it started to lift on the edges or one of the corners.

Techmatte screen protectors are awesome, and priced really low!
Here is a 3 pack for less than $5, and it's Prime eligible

Are you guys running these screen protectors with a case? I am using an Otterbox Defender like case and wonder if halo issues would increase with that.

Right now I'm using Extreme Guard. So far no problems.Not the best and not the worst. I got mine off of Ebay last week for $1.99 and free shipping.

Do you have the dry or wet version? Is it plasticy or rubbery? The pic of the knife stabbing the screen protector makes me think that it's more rubbery meaning it'll be grippy instead of smooth.

I got the wet. 5 days on it and so far its really nice. Took a few days to settle but that's normal. Go here.....http://www.xtremeguard.com/
They got some good deals going on now.

I've had good luck with the Zagg Hdx. Bought it at Best Buy and had them install it. I believe it was around $18. After about 2 months, it still looks good. Covers to the edge of the screen.
It's not as smooth as glass, but not bad.

Using the Zagg hdx w/ Otterbox Defender for a couple of months, no halo, no lifting. You need to change the S Pen tip to the gray one. Not as smooth as glass has very good fingerprint resistance. I had the iCarez glass & it was a fingerprint/dust magnet to the point I had to remove it.

How is the clarity with the hdx? I noticed a few users saying clarity is reduced like you rainbow/pixely effect. Also that the spen leaves marks?

I guess if you pressed the S Pen hard enough you could mark the hdx but I've not had that problem. Reason you change the tip to the grey one is it glides much better on the hdx. Screen clarity to me is every bit as good as it was with the iCarez glass. I also used the iCarez film before their glass one and that was terrible screen clarity, the hdx is a night & day difference between a film plastic protector. Keep in mind anything less than 9h tempered glass is going to be a compromise. For me the no halo/no lifted edges and the fact that I'm tired of trying to find a glass protector makes the hdx a good compromise.

I also think the clarity is fine on the hdx. I grew tired of going through glass protectors that all had the halo effect too.

I went with the hdx. Not too impressed with it. Some of the edges do not stick fully and I hear some squeaks as I glide my finger across the screen. I also notice a mild rainbowy/pixely effect on white backgrounds.

Excuse my ignorance, just out of curiousity is there a reason you (anyone here) would choose a plastic protector over glass?
In my experience plastic is such a pain always had to have my lady partner apply my plastic ones I would always get those bubbles.. never got them since I moved to glass, and it's so much easier to apply.. just put it on and watch the air run out the sides
Extremely cheap on eBay even though I get the best buy discount. Even got the explosion proof glass so it will be safe if my phone explodes!

I would've loved to chosen a glass protector, but from what I've seen most get halos. Some are lucky and do not get them. Also they are priced a lot higher. Which glass are you using?

Right now all the screen protectors are bad.
Until they come up with a new and improved version, assume all are bad.
I've tried two on Amazon and got the exact same results.
I asked for and received a refund both times.

That's the only decent screen protector that fits right now. There's also a matte finish one. It's not tempered glass, but you get 8. The fit is much better than all of the tempered glass ones on Amazon. It's not 100% perfect as tiny bit of the edge don't stick but you won't notice from the distance unlike the current tempered glass.

If any part of a screen protector doesn't stick then all manner of stuff will get stuck in between. For those w/ colored borders, that's not much of an issue but completely clear ones will eventually show all the dust and stuff on it.

The essential screen isn't flat. I don't see a viable glass protector coming. It'd have to be super thin with a really strong adhesive to make it stick to the sides.

Actually much like the iPhone, it's flat until you get to the edge.
If the current round of protectors was 2mm smaller they would fit.
But for me, it doesn't matter.
I'm returning the phone.

There's still a thin bezel on the side that can handle adhesive on it so if they release one with black borders, I'd get it as the black borders won't show the halo effect even if it's not completely stuck on the outer edges. That's what I have on my iPhones. The display area is glass while the borders are plastic so they flex more.

Jus wait for the accessories to start coming out. Sounds like essential is open to 3rd parties making cases and screen protectors... So just got to hold on...this is what it sounded like from the reddit AMA

I have a Sopi 3M matte skin on the back and it helps with the grip a little but not by much... definitely helps w/ the fingerprints though... lol since it's matte, there can be visible smudges from time to time depending on how dirty/sweaty your paws are... I did read the AMA and they should've worked w/ case manufacturers long before release. I understand they want to keep it close to their vest until release (as to not tip off the competition) but they didn't ship the phone until much later than they said they would so in that time they could've sent out the outside schematics/dimensions to case manufacturers. No excuse!

The situation is the same for any devices that have curved edges. I'm not sure why companies just don't apply adhesive to the whole screen protector. A solution is using UV glue on a glass screen protector that isn't fully covered with adhesive. I've used the Whitedome on my Galaxy S8+ and it works really well. You should be able to buy the UV glue and UV lamp from Amazon and apply it to any glass screen protector. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KZmF8uQESI

Screen protector - NOT tempered glass but "old school" film

Hello all, I have tried a couple of tempered glass screen protectors; I have also read many many reviews.
It seems that there is no tempered glass protector that would be full screen; fit (most) cases and does not release on the edges for all.
I actually did not mind the screen protector which was installed by 1+ when I got the phone (and I did not like the tempered glass ones I tried).
So I contacted them today asking if I could buy a couple of those. To my biggest disappointment I was advised that although I am not the first one to ask, they do not consider the included screen protector to be a "product" and so they do not sell it even if I wanted a large quantity.
I spent some time researching ebay - but most (nearly all) sellers sell only tempered glass (which I don't want). The few seller that sell films are very expensive ($10+ vs. $1 for the tempered glass). That is also surprising as the cost of the film is much less...
So, my question to you all: who has tried film screen protectors? Where did you get it from and what experience did you have?
Thank you for sharing

I personally use 3MK Flexible glass - its hibrid glass. I use it from years, now on OP6. I think its the best option for any phone

Hmm, thats not good. Is it equally too big each way or is it just difficult to install totally centered, so its big on one side only?
A pic would help for sure.

I finally found regular PET protectors similar to the OEM ones that fit the phone well and are of good quality. I got them from here:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/5X-Ultra-Thin-Tempered-Glass-PET-Soft-HD-Screen-Protector-Film-For-OnePlus-6/163161457336?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=462326426650&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649
The adhesive is pretty sticky on them so they don't lift off but it's hard to get them perfectly bubble free. The way I get these on perfect every time is put rubbing alcohol all over the screen then apply the protector and set it in place exactly centered (it's easy to move because of the alcohol) Then lightly push down on it and very lightly push out some of the alcohol so you don't see any bubbles. Then wait five minutes and peel off the front layer then lightly with a small cloth push out the rest of the bubbles. When the alcohol dries (takes about 10-15 mins) it will adhere perfectly and there will be no residue, bubbles or dust under the protector.

I've got an IQshield on my OP6 http://www.iqshield.com/iq32368-oneplus-6-phone-screen-protector.html
I tried a few TG ones and wasn't happy with any. They either didn't stick properly or had the annoying black border. The IQshield is the best protector I've tried.

The best screen protector is the soft nano TPU protectors they sell at ebay or aliexpress for a buck a piece and these cover the whole screen and can be applied wet with some soap and water.

Accidentally dropped it on a concrete slab that had small gravel and dirt all over it about a week ago. Right out of my pocket. I do have one of those Tudia cases on it with a lip, HOWEVER some of that gravel did hit the glass. Tore up the screen protector in a couple spots. They kind of look like pin pricks but no discernible cracks or knicks in the glass what so ever, and the other scratches to the screen protector went away after rubbing with my fingers.
Talk about a freak out moment.

Amazing Glass Screen Protector

So after seeing bad reviews of countless glass screen protectors, I have finally stumbled upon one that is actually fantastic and covers the entire display.
https://www.amazon.ca/ESR-Protector...2+tempered&dpPl=1&dpID=51kmkyd-p6L&ref=plSrch
I purchased this thing about a week ago and have so far been extremely satisfied. For starters it comes with a alignment tool that makes putting it on a breeze.
One benefit of this screen protector is that it is truly edge to edge, leaving about 0.75mm of space on each edge of the glass while simultaneously not cutting out any part of the display. The other benefit is that it has adhesive throughout the entire glass including the edges so no issues with the rainbow halo effect. The oleophobic coating on it is also superb. It feels EXACTLY like the original display, most glass screen protectors skimp out on this which leads them to feel a bit sticky but this one glides like the original display under it.
I installed it in under 3 minutes perfectly and there are absolutely no bubbles and the singular camera cutout is perfectly made in the correct spot. Hands down the best glass screen protector I've had for any smarthphone.

Thanks for the tip. I've ordered one on AliExpress from the same brand, costs only 5 usd

Using one for one month, just perfect and easy to apply. Very good quality and i have tried many screen protectors for mix 2 but none was as good as this one.

Hey.
I use my phone since early 2018 now.
After a few different screen protectors i gave up and use it without protector.
The phone is like a new one. I think the glass is very good and no protector is needed.
The display is very smooth to tap without one scratch on it.
Use it with full cover/case with magnetic closer.

I managed to get some hair-like fine scratches. I think your full cover helps a lot

I just shattered my ESR protector, you will never guess how. While pulling the phone out of my pocket, I somehow hooked the corner of my glass, right where the front camera is located ( here: https://imgur.com/F5Crawg ) with some loose thread in my pocket They should just make a round cutout :\

Just put mine on this morning, fits really well but 3 areas have a speck of dust under them, I put it on after getting out of the shower as the mist in the air normally keeps the dust away but not this time.
Got the esr case as well which is ok for the price.
Got them from the ESR store on AliExpress.

Best screen protector I've ever had, and I think I've tried them all. Full glue so no weird effects, no dot matrix, perfect cut and perfect fit with the supplied tool. I'm highly impressed.
Tbh I can't understand why we need a camera cut out, just make a circular clear area.

There is a white frame and black frame available. Which one did you choose? . . . and is there a case that would be most compatible with this rounded edge protector?

ESR
Well, ESR glasss has the best oleofobic coating and clearness. No rainbow efect too, it has gule on the whole surface. Just that nowel plastic frame needs some practice to get use to it. There are no gaps between it and the glass on all sides , when install. The glue is really strong. I am siprised that somebody managed to stisck something between glass and screen.

My ESR protector died after a couple months of use. First some scratches appeared (the protector is softer than the screen) and on one of those scratches (a deeper one on the edge) the protector cracked. Removal was not that easy as the force required to pull it of will result in a shattered protector everywhere so expect lots of glass dust. I've ordered a new one together with a ESR case (that fits lovely too). These things are so cheap anyway that I don't mind going through a couple of them each year.

Just got the ESR case and screen protector. Thanks for the recommendation, this screen protector feels and looks like there is no protector at all, no more smudges over the original screen. The perfect application from the bracket and adhesive across the entire protector makes it the best one I've used, after giving up on covering my mix 2 after 3-4 different protectors giving neuton rings and immediately thrown out. I have probably dropped my mix 2 on the pavement 7 or 8 times in the last year getting out of my car, and only got a tiny crack on the bottom bezel corner of the screen. Since the bottom bezel on the ESR protector is black my phone looks undamaged now.
The ESR case is nearly as good as the one in the box. I do notice it's slightly thicker than the case in the box, and the added bottom protection makes the phone slightly longer, but it's overall an exceptional fit.

I got mine from taobao directly.

3-protector for 39 CNY, with a free silicon case (very ****ty).
This protector have soft edges to fit the curved screen edge, perfect for my case.

S10e screen protectors

Which one do you recommend for the S10e? Right now I'm still using the default protector which was applied by Samsung, but I don't really like it.

i ordered one on ebay but i have a feeling it's flat not edge to edge full cover for 10e. They use generic photoshopped stock photo for all 3 models and claim it's curved. I think 10e has 2.5D edge. Not completely flat. I'm also using the garbage thin film they included. For $800 scumsung could include high quality glass and case. I also ordered glass for rear cameras. Never seen or used one before. Not sure what to expect.

tried ESR tempered glass and MP mall tempered glass from amazon
both do not stick on side, ESR is off by like 0.75 mm because of 2.5D curve of glass, it does not stick on side. so dont waste your money on these two, i am still looking for one may be just a bit smaller than ESR.
temporarily ordering a film protector till i find a tempered glass which fits right.

I'm using the PureGear HD Clear Tempered Glass Screen Protector https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07P7S174H/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_byaHCbZY5Q1N0
It only has adhesive on the edges so there is no bubbles. It is case friendly and is a decent alternative to the whitedome which remains the superior choice for the 2.5D screens.

how is touch sensitivity and does is create rainbow effect like some tempered glass with adhesive on side do?

Keep in mind aftermarket screen protecters (especially glass ones) will have problems with the fingerprint reader.
Im using the samsung one for now until some testing and revising is done

No rainbow effect and if you increase touch sensitivity in the settings it works great. I have no real complaints.

which non-glass protector do you guys recommend?

That's only for bigger models. S10E finger scanner is on the side.

Yes, that's exactly what you are seeing. The S10e does indeed have a factory installed plastic screen protector. You can really feel it around the camera as there's a cutout for the camera. I would expect it to scratch rather quickly, plus I don't think it provides nearly as much drop protection as a tempered glass one might.
I'm following along here hoping that there does wind up being an economical tempered glass screen protector that works well and doesn't life at the edges. Seems like this will be similar to my S7, where I was never really able to find something that works and just went naked.

Thank you for the response I've just been so confused with everyone saying the S10 and S10+ have one but not the S10e. I think you're right it is just a polyurethane plastic protector. And just a heads up I tried to apply a tempered glass protector over top of it and it definitely made it hard for the edges to stick.

I had the same confusion. All of the media I've seen say the pre-installed one is only on the S10 and S10+, but if you look around the camera on the S10e, there's clearly a cutout that confirms there is a pre-installed screen protector on there. I'm still not exactly sure how to get it off. I picked around the edges a bit and nothing is coming up easily.
I'm not sure how well the edges of a tempered glass one will stick even if you took off the pre-installed one. I haven't seen any reports of an economical one that works yet. I think I'm going to be in the same boat as I am with my S7 and be forced to go without one.

If anyone looking for decent glass. This brand is good to go, but expensive. Might wait out a little.

my factory installed screen protector is starting to show some scratches and wear. Getting near desperate trying to find a good affordable screen protector for the s10e

I ordered an Alinsea glass protector from amazon, sounds like a knock off of a Whitestone from their description. It doesn't have a cut out for the front facing camera, which is great, as a cut out just seems to collect pocket lint. I have not received it yet.

I got one. First time doing an install of this type and given the barebones installation tools provided, it was above average difficultly. First one ended up with bubbles.
