What's your Essential PH-1 protection? - Essential Phone Accessories

This is what I went with initially
Skin: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075B4BSS8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Screen: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075VMCN1J/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
My take on things, The screen protector is working great and comes with black borders so it's hard to mess up ad no halo effect. The skin on the back will do for now, fits perfectly but I really need Ringke Fusion case for this baby.
So what is your choice?

I went with the Phantom Skin. Lifetime replacement. It is only scratch protection, but I rarely drop my phone. It is, for all intents and purposes, invisible.

Dbrand skin and Ozero tempered glass.

This is a combo, screen protector + skin. I think you can just get the screen protector

Can you post a photo of the screen protector? I'm concerned on the bottom chin part of the phone. The Orzero looks like the corners are rounded while the PH-1 is not. The Orzero in the photo makes it look like a Galaxy which I hate.

I also don't want that camera cutout. Ozero is looking nice. The black area of the chin is not rounded at all. There is notable rainbow effect. I guess that's the only one owners are complaining about.

@andril Is this one of those screen protectors with the black borders that does "full coverage"? Or is it smaller than the screen? Hard to see in the pics

[REVIEW] Halo Premium Anti-Glare/Matte Screen Protector

Promised to do a review on this screen protector, so paulo this one's for you. Haha. Well I've had this screen protector on for about 4 weeks now, and I absolutely love it. I would definitely recommend it, especially for those on a budget. A $5.95 well spent.
Pros:
Dry application
Precise cut outs
Great touch responsiveness (Swyping with this bad boy is a breeze.)
No fingerprints
No smudges
Better visibility in sunlight
Looks sexy lol
Cons:
Took me 2 out of the 3 protectors to get it on right, or without bubbles. Maybe I'm just not good at that.
Screen quality degradation (This is expected with a anti-glare/matte screen protector. There is some pixelation, which is really noticeable on white backgrounds.)
You can but it HERE.
Pictures that took me forever.

Thanks for the review. I already ordered mine and just wanted to check out some more images of it. Out of curiosity, what case are you using? Also is there a notice gap between the protector and the lip of the case? The first few images make it seem like it, but the rest make the gap appear small.

I'm guessing you are taking about the difference between this picture of the screen protector:
vs
Well there are two reasons.
1. I didn't apply the screen protector perfectly. You can also see the little bubbles created by dust left on the screen. So I took it off, and tried again.
2. Two different cases. I doubt this affects it, however, considering I switch the cases out per week and the gap between the screen protector and the case doesn't increase or shrink.
I have two cases. The white one the Mercury TPU Nexus 4 case(comes in many different colors), and the black one is the Acase Superleggera Pro Hybrid dual layer Nexus 4 case(also comes in different assortments).
I'm also using this screen protector and I love it too,great price ya can't go wrong with these. ????

I bought this screen protector 3 months ago but never used it, as it looks like a hassle to apply if it takes going through most of them to get one that is applied properly. I just kept the stock plastic protector on mine; maybe after that gets destroyed I will give it a try.

its pretty simple just be quick, and i would day do it in the restroom, less dust in the air. always works for me.
I've installed countless screen protectors for me and friends. For the wet ones, you definitely want to be in a steamy bathroom as that helps settle the dusts. The dry ones, need to be done quickly. You can slip a small piece of tape between the screen and the screen protector to grab some of the dust. The stickiness of the tape beats the static force created by the protector. Not sure of its technical name.
My silliest method was to put the phone in the middle, on top of a fan blowing air upwards. That way it created a space where dust will not be. It worked perfectly.

I mean, I guess there is. But to notice the bubbling you would have to nitpicking or looking in with a magnifying glass (not really). I'd say the bubbling on the side is about .25 cm from the edge. Really slight, and with my case on you can't notice it.

My minor bubble seems to be going away. You also get a back flim, havent installed it yet. Tryin to find the right case
s6 made me do it
Thanks for the photos. From your third photo, it looks like the screen protector covers 1mm over the left edge of the actual screen. Is this similar on the right side?
I actually have their HD Clear on mine right now and it's great.
That may be my fitment, i layed it twice... but it looks like if it would of been .30mm wider it would of been tits. Or maybe if i shifted over .15mm i would of been good. But this looks good enough for the girls i date

Tks for the pics...the tempered galss is realy good...
Nice looking screen protector.
Zag works perfect with no halo effect.
So here are some pics of the Zagg. Halo free.
Nice looks real good, post a link where people can buy.
Although im not a fan hows yours is cut but it looks good

Right now, there are three types of glass out there.
1) Flat glass cut to the size of the screen. Since the edges of the screen are rounded, the edges of the glass don't adhere. This produces what people call a "halo" effect, because the part of the glass not sticking will appear white, creating a white ring around the outside of your screen.
2) Flat glass cut to fit only on the flat part of the screen. It stops before it reaches the curvature of the screen, and therefore doesn't extend to the edges. In my opinion, it looks bad, I'd be constantly scraping my finger along the edge, and it's not even protecting my entire front of my phone, so what's the point?
3) Curved glass cut to fit the entire front of the phone, edge-to-edge. There aren't many of these out there and reviews are really just trickling in. I started a thread for discussion of them, but no content as of yet. I'm hoping that the glass makers will wise up and go this way.
So 2.5d means it should cover the whole screen edge to edge? Haven't managed to find any like this yet

2.5d means that the edge of the screen protector has a curve to it. This makes the glass screen protector less prone to nicks and cracking.

I think it's how its applied. I bought a pair, I forgot what brand but I bought one for my girl and 2 came in the package. I put hers on first and there's the halo around the edges, but I put mine on and there's none to be seen.

Tempered glass

Anyone know of a Tempered Glass protector that goes reasonably close to the edges? I have this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017D763IK/ and it is terrible. Bunch of space around the edges and halo effect.
You won't find any that goes to the edge per the curve
But I've been using this for a few weeks and it has minimal halo effect (possibly none had I aligned it perfectly)

I ordered these and they fit great. They fit just to the edge of the display panel which is how it should be or else there will be halo because the glass starts to curve after that.

Those were not 2.5D. IPhone 6 onwards is, and it uses smaller screen protectors too due to the curves at the edges of the screen. Even galaxy edge products. Nothing can't be done about that as the glue won't stick on curved glass. I wouldn't call it an "issue". It's very basic imo.
I'll try adding pictures, but you can also check them out on the nillkin website. Those are very accurate. The actual product is exactly like that portrayed on the website.

I'm returning an item just like this (different vendor) as the adhesive is just around the borders and top.
The adhesive is weak and in my case it was not aligned properly to the "glass" so you could see it covering some parts of the screen.
The middle have no adhesive whatsoever and it does not make contact with the phone screen. This causes the protector to flex and each tap/touch on the screen feels like using an old phone with plastic screen.
One last thing: it is a fingerprint magnet and very reflective.

Dang, that sucks. I'll definitely be needing tempered glass, and this is one reason I'm leaning toward the G5—Edge owners are having a devil of a time finding a good one for themselves.
Please post pics of the Yootech.
I'd be really surprised if there's a tempered glass protector that is already correctly designed for the curve at the top. As in, Will it stay stuck? In the past whenever I've had a curved glass phone it's usually months after its release when a company finally designs a true curved TGSP. I hope I'm wrong because I have a Yootech on the V10 and it's great! (Them not making one for the S7 yet might be a sign as to why this was pulled from Amazon).
I settled for a cheap square one for now [Omoton on Amazon].

It is too expensive in my opinion.Less than $10 is OK.
I'm cautious of anything that claims to cover curved glass. This is just based off of my past purchases.

Glass screen protector

Got a cheap glass screen protector online, once applied 4 edges don't stick properly like others, but it comes with a little brush and some kind of oil/adhesive once you brushed it the gap is gone. Final result looks pretty good, let's see how long it will last.

Hmmm sounds lime the olive oil trick. It would be great if it's adhesive sjomehow though. Update us after a few days because the oil trick usually stops working a little at that point.
New upgraded glass protector just hit Amazon. Ordered so we'll see. Has curved edges.

I saw that too. If it's like the Ozero ones I got for the HTC U11, there won't be any adhesive over the screen itself just along the black edges. However since there's is barely any bezel I wonder how they will do it. Keep us posted!

Will do. Same issue happened with the Nexus 6, and some Japanese company produced a curved glass that fit perfect. Might still have an extra as I can't remember the company name. Fingers crossed for this one though.

I ordered the Orzero and have glue only on the edges. Is working fine so far, and I didn't lose nothing in terms of display size.
EDIT. The screen protector started to coming loose today. The glue seems to start to become weak on the top part of the screen and is lifting badly. I will send an email to the vendor at Amazon for return.
Was working beautifully the first 2 days I don't know what happened.

Yup the cheap one doesn't work as it starts to come off near the edge. Don't buy, lol

Not sure if it'll work with this phone but on my PXL and the Supershieldz TGSP, I put 2 stacks of copy paper on it after I applied to apply pressure on the tgsp. It actually worked great and I didn't have a halo affect. However, the protector was nowhere near the edges. Shot in the dark but hey, wouldn't hurt to try. Nothing to use except the time u wont be able to use the phone when you have something heavy on it. Shouldn't have to worry about it breaking since it's ceramic. Lol I'm going to try that once I get my replacement w/ the Orzero 3pk. Will return it or just ask for a refund if it doesn't work.
Ok I got the updated Ozero installed and it's mostly nice. Fit wise it's perfect and their is zero halo. However, and it may be from as mentioned above with the adhesive only on the edges I have a chromatic aberration section right in the middle. Not sure if it will do down or maybe the glass or my phones glass is curved slightly. We'll see. But fit wise it's close to perfect. Plus you get 3 of them.

From my person experience any tgsp w/o adhesive on the actual display area will never look as nice as ones w/ the adhesive in that area. I have one such installed on my LG X Charge and while it works well, you know there's a space between the tgsp and the display. There is also the rainbow effect you get occasionally. I'm still definitely going to try the Ozero, as it's better than nothing! Lol

Yeah I'll try to get some posted tomorrow. So far it's great. Still have that chromatic middle section that is a little iritating but fit is perfect.

I'm seeing that issue too. It fits perfectly and feels really smooth too. Kinda sucks that I won't be able to keep it on because the chromatic aberration is annoying.

Yeah unfortunately it's inherent to these types of protectors where there's no adhesive over the screen. Hopefully someone will come out with a full cover like this but with adhesive on the screen. Lamshaw makes one for the HTC U11 and I love it.
I do have a question. Does the Orzero leave fingerprints like crazy? The Orzero I had for my U11 I swear had no oleophobic coating at all. It was awful.

So this one does have an oleophobic coating however it's not that great. It's definitely better and lesser of a fingerprint magnet than the ceramic back.

I really don't think it is bad with fingerprints. Pics. You can see the chromatic area in a couple of them. In certain lighting it's not noticable, others a lot though.

yup that's exactly how it looks like on my LG X Charge w/ the same type of tgsp. Again, it's better than being naked. Right now my replacement is naked w/ only a skin on the back. The Ozero isn't available until next week so unfortunately going to have to wait...

Oh did you try placing something heavy on it to flatten it as much as possible, that may help.
I remember a trick back in the old old Otterbox days where someone took a dab of baby powder on a cloth and wiped the inside of the screen protector with it and that prevented it from sticking to the screen causing the newton rings.
