I walked into a Bestbuy yesterday to buy a screen protector for the note 4, there were none. When I asked girl in mobile said they were all recalled? Anyone hear this?
Would not surprise me. ZAGG ones didn't fit properly.
I have not heard of this. I was in a Best Buy yesterday, but I did not take the time to view their screen protectors there. I prefer to buy my protectors from Amazon.com as they are much cheaper and you receive a good amount depending on which you buy from Amazon.

When I purchased my Note 4 at Best Buy I also purchased the Zagg glass shield screen protector and paid to have them apply it (good thing). The fist one he thought some lint got into the edges as they would not stick no matter how he rubbed and rubbed. He then opened another package (of no cost to me as the first was "defective") and that too did the same thing. So, I just had them refund me my money for the screen protector and the service charge to apply it. But, here's the clincher, I went to a sprint store to see if maybe Best Buy just had a bad batch or something? Well, the sales rep there said they are not recommending them right now because they are not sticking around the edges. So, bottom line you're better off going amazon for now till they get a fix.
Ive used the zaggs from bestbuy since my s3 and had them on my s3,s4,n3,s5 and now my n4. Always used the clear hd plastic ones and decided to go with the same for the n4. Works and looks great. Maybe its just the glass ones.
its not amazon, its not best buy, its not the sprint store. its our Note 4's screen. its slightly curved so the edges on the tempered glass cant stick, they arnt bendable enough. theyre making a "bendable" tempered glass screen protector but thats going to come out a little bit later on, probably after more R&D. i have a ebay screen tempered glass protector and it also has the same issues. i used to work at best buy and its all the same stuff. i personally use the ebay one while not completely sticking to the edges, it does still provide some protection and with the screen on, you cant tell that its not sticking.
Received Official Samsung Screen Protectors (Made in Korea by Samsung); I personally don't see why I should be spending this much on PET film, when there are better ones costing cheap! These Samsung PET's costed me $20 dollars including shipping. I haven't opened the item because its going back to where it came from, lol. :good:
What are your thoughts?
Sorry, I dont get it. Why is it not worth it?
It's unnecessarily expensive. These screen protectors serve temporary protection. Then after all the grime accumulates, you take it off and toss in the trash. You might as well buy something more permanent such as a tempered glass screen protector.
Also, eBay sells dozens of PET film screen protectors, some which are of very decent quality. Xtreme_Guard is selling a 6-pack for only $2.49. Definitely worth it.

I see, got it. Here in our country it cost ~$13.
Why buy it in the first place if its too expensive?
Lol, the order was placed by accident and wasn't able to cancel prior to shipping. I don't know what Samsung is trying to get out of this; but not all your accessories have to be made by Samsung. Here's what I purchased along with the Note 4:
- Mini Wireless Charging Pad (Samsung)
- Otterbox Defender (Black) with Holster
- Zagg HDX and Glass (Note 4)
- A Dozen or So Screen Protector Pack from eBay (for Backup)
- Skinomi Techskin (Clear) for the Note 4
- Pouch
There were additional things I purchased, but later realized how unnecessary it was, and returned them.

How on earth you ordered them by mistake, haven't used them and you can say they does not worth it?
I've bought mine for $9 and I'm going to apply one of them tomorrow and will have real opinion.
And 2 other things - it is Samsungs accessory and it is normal to cost more. And TGP are having halos, so this is an option for protecting your screen.
Please change the threat topic - it is misleading.
I have one applied (the package comes with two) and I'm quite satisfied. Fit is good, smooth to touch, s-pen glides over it... I like it. Can't say about durability because I only have it for a week.
the real question is, does samsung official screen protector actually cover the whole screen with no halos? I'm curious to see if they actually made a screen protector that covered the whole screen knowingly making a curved screen.

Since these are plastic film screen protectors, of course it doesn't cover the entire glass. It's impossible with this type of protector. The only kind that can currently do that are the wet apply rubber style protectors.
Impressive design on Galaxy S6 Edge+,yet it would be another challenge for manufacturers, for now on amazon and spigen and otterbox, none of them released tempered glass screen protector for the S6 Edge+, just share your finding with experience if possible...

I think if they do, even the glass protector would need to have curve. 2.5D display of Note4/5 or edge display of the Edge variant wouldn't be covered completely otherwise. And even if they come up with something like that, I would assume the price would be too high..
I hope skinomi makes this for the edge +
Give them some time and I'm sure temper glass edge to edge protectors will be available

Looks nice but no brand name to research reviews to see how it well it covers so 25 from a unnamed company that ships directly from China is definitely too much!
Plus paying $25 and you may get the screen protector between now and Halloween.
I got the skinomi screen protector. I guess this is the best selling on amazon for this phone, but i dont recommend it. There are plastic indentations of on the screen, its wet install so no bubble, but its a nightmare to install, cos even if u wet install it, and squeeze out the water with a squeezee, the skin wont stay on the screen.
http://www.amazon.com/Skinomi®-TechSkin-Replacement-Definition-Anti-Bubble/dp/B011M7ZTUA
Waiting for spigen or some other known brand to come up with a curved tampered glass screen protector.
I figured $25 to protect my $850 phone until a better cheaper version is available was worth the chance to me. Trust me I wish there were more options but that is not the case right now

I have that same one on my screen right now and the install was simple. No bubbles and it has stayed on with no issue. It's clear and looks good.
Either you got a defective one or you are not experienced installing a wet apply protector.

Its not defective, and i never said there are bubbles, i've been installing screenprotectors since the inception of the first generation of iphones, but lets not judge each other, to each their own. I dont like it.

I'm not judging you, I just offered a couple guesses of what could have been the issue. I also never said that you said there were bubbles. I was sharing my experience.
I understand that you don't like it and you are entitled to your opinion of course. For the $1 that I paid, I'm cool with it.

Take pics and tell us if it fully covers when you get it?
Finally, it will come out with perfect match to the edge+ or something.
The one I ordered shipped today. I also noticed a bunch of new people selling similar tempered glass edge to edge protectors on ebay.
I've also ordered Skinomi and yes,it's wet install and kind of tricky but luckily I was able to have a successful install. It's kind of soft and rubbery feel, but not much that cause worry or distraction. I'm actually loving it.
I've got the same one (skinomi) on my phone. Installation was a breeze. No bubbles or peelings, but I do hate the fact that there are some dust on the edges of the screen protector, none on the screen tho. I also hate the rubbery feeling, but for now it will have to do until I can get my hands on the tempered sp. I almost always go with the Zagg tempered glass, since it features a lifetime warranty.

I would have to Agree i used the Skinomi on my Note 4 edge ,most people couldn't believe I had a screen protector on it it was that hard to see, and the curve on the note4 edge is a lot more of and angle .........just my 2 cent's , just a tip for those that are using any type of wet application I would suggest you get a bowl , like a large salad bowl fill it half way with water and then add a few drop's of dish detergent not too much , it allow's you to get your finger's and the screen protector evenly wet and if you see a hair or a piece of dirt or whatever just pull it off submerge the screen protector to get what ever that was either on the screen or on the protector or the screen and start over again , ever since I saw this tip from somewhere here on XDA it's never failed three different phones and perfection ..........:good:
I just put on the techfilm dry install and it wouldn't show in a picture that's how thin it is. No bubbles full coverage, had to use a flashlight to make sure it was on. Best protector I've ever used on any phone. Oh and no rubber feeling like I've heard about others
I have ordered OnePlus 6 today.. And waiting that would come tomorrow.. This time it's almost 95 percent glass so protector would be must need to keep the device mint, especially for the BACK!!
So Let me start of the thread for the OnePlus 6 Screen Protector.
I have ordered OnePlus 6 Full body screen protector from the Gadgetshieldz.
And I hope this time it's merely impossible to get the best TGP soon. Please let know your suggestions.
Finally got my Gadgetshieldz protectors and applied it. The protector is fitting well and all the holes are perfect. Important part is, its providing lot of grip to the OP6 which is very slippery without the protector. Might go for a Tempered Glass for the screen if I find a decent one but the back protector is a keeper. Take a look at the images of the protectors applied on my OP6. Can't go wrong with these for a low price.

Thanks. Ordered one as well. Mostly for the back protector since the phone is glass. Hopefully OnePlus releases an official TGP that includes a back protector.
Ordered same too !
Great worldwide free shipping. Wonder how long it takes...
I bought the original bumper carbon case but forgot to buy the combo (case + screen protector).
Now I don't know if I should buy the original oneplus screen protector (tempered glass) or buy something from a 3rd party.
Any ideas?
Hi,
I thought we cannot use bumper with tempered glass ?

Hmm, you may be right.
This is the one I bought:
https://www.oneplus.com/uk/oneplus-6-protective-case
And this was the bundle:
https://www.oneplus.com/uk/oneplus-6-total-protection-bundle
What is the difference between the protective case and the bumper?
I think bumper protects the screen better. But if you use a tempered glass you cannot use bumper as the covered lips of the bumper will damage the tempered glass.

Anyone had any experience with those nano liquid protections (ie: https://www.spigen.com/collections/oneplus/products/screen-protector-glas-tr-nano-liquid )?
I ordered the phone with the Nylon bumper case. I almost pulled the trigger on the tempered glass protector as well but I was worried it wouldn't fit with the bumper case and it appears I was right.
The great news is that this phone comes with a pre-applied plastic screen protector. So the screen will be protected right from the beginning. This will buy us time for the release of more tempered glass protectors that may fit with bulkier cases like the nylon bumper case.

According to OnePlus support chat, the tempered glass protector will work with the bumper case. I'm not saying they are right, but I'm saying there is a chance

With the ultimate bundle, you get the choice of bumper case and tempered glass. It wouldn't make sense to bundle them if they didn't work together, but who knows. The strange this is that the bundle that includes only a case and glass, doesn't offer a bumper case.
I have the bundled case and the sandstone. Both fit with the OnePlus tempered glass. I would guess the bumper does too having looked at it in the shop but not 100% as I didn't put it on.
Since they sell the bumper and the tempered glass together and there are no notes in the tempered glass that it does not work with the bumper case, i am really hoping that you can use the 2 together since that is what i bought. if they don't work together, i will have to send the bumper back.

I did not have experience with this particular brand but ordered from AliExpress for $3.50 each about six months ago for my Samsung Galaxy S8+. It's been six months w/o a screen protector and not a single scratch insight. I don't have the rough use of my phone but don't baby it either. Long and short of it is: This type of product MAY work and just to try it out, I would not spend $24. $4 and wait of 2 weeks should get you the same product at a much cheaper price to try. Here is the link to the product I used:

One question. Are you sure the official TGP includes a back protector?. In Spanish online store don`t say anything about this.
Greetings from Spain.
When you uncheck the body-protector, you pay 9.95$ instead of 11.95$ so pretty sure it does.

Are you talking about this? :
OnePlus 6 3D Tempered Glass Screen Protector Black
$19.95
x 1
This is the official TGP from OnePlus.com online shop. In the description says :
In the Box:
OnePlus 6 3D Tempered Glass Screen Protector
Don't say it has a back protector.
Greetings from Spain.
I am sorry mate, I got you wrong.
I was talking about gadgetshieldz, there a back protector is included.
Oneplus official tgp doesn't include a back protector (and @brangalm says "hopefully" so he isn't sure either), but I ordered it as well.
This might already be posted but in case not, I was really bummed that I couldn't find a decent screen protector. I had an extra tube of loca glue from my S8 Whitestone kit so I got the idea to try it with a Supershields glass that only has adhesive around the sides. We in short it came out fantastic. So happy I tried it..will be keeping my V30 for some time now.

The video below is a guy who did the same thing on a Galaxy S9. He used loca glue on a glass screen protector that had adhesive along the edges only. That caused 2 bubbles along the edge. A thinner viscosity loca glue might prevent this?

I bought the two-pack of "case-friendly" screen protectors from this aliexpress listing. I have 3 different cases, and none of them would fit with the glass in place.
So, I contacted the seller and opened a case, thinking I got the "full coverage" one instead. What I understand from their response is that they're all the same size. I got a refund.
I'm not really sure what happened... but I never installed the glass because I could tell my case wouldn't fit on, and I didn't want to take my existing film protector off to try. Why would they have "full coverage" and "case-friendly" versions listed? I sort of think the seller couldn't understand my issue. I tried to use google translate to tell what it said on the package, but that was also inconclusive, as it had both the words "full" and "case" on the sticker. And for a bonus... the word "leather"
Has anyone successfully installed this product with a case?

I thought so too before installing but after installation it's fine. I have the supcase. The glue was too annoying, I even broke little bit of my display glass trying to get it out my earpiece :crying: The tempered glass is perfect provided you have patience and follow the video the seller sends you.
