I scratched my screen with key(with very little pressure applied) although it's a very thin scratch but I am disappointed with the Gorilla glass 3 they say it is stronger than previous versions gorillas I do not concur. .so my advice to ppl who are using their galaxies without a screen protector should get one ASAP!

Why did you scratch your screen with a key? Your wording made it sound deliberate.
Gorilla glass or not, I had a screen protector on this thing within 5 minutes of taking it out the box and I did exactly the same with my S2. All glass will scratch if you try hard enough or if you're unfortunate enough to have a few grains of sand in your pocket.

I took those Gorilla Glass 3 test reviews for their word for it (-;

Metal does not scratch glass (especially a typical key). It was probably something you had on your key, like a bit of sand or dust. That will scratch any kind of glass no matter what you do to it.

Anyone know of any tempered glass screen protectors out there? I really like the spigen glas.t review and and description but there's not one out for this phone. Anybody know of one? If not, what's your favorite screen protector? Thanks!

So... Has anyone had problems with the coating peeling off. Like around the power button and such? I never noticed it until I took my case off. It was bubbled up and peeling off. I contacted Google already and they are sending a replacement device. Just wondering if anyone else had a similar issue.
And I posted this in the wrong section, sorry if a mod would be so kind to move it.

Never heard of the sides peeling. That sucks. At least Google is replacing it. Any way you can get a shot of it?

I don't think its the heat. When it gets hot its the glass and not the rubber. I think its the case. What case are you using?

Hi guys! Just want to share how my stock anti shatter film became anti fingerprint which is cool.
After few days with my xz, ive notice some scratch on my lcd without doing anything rough.
I made a decision of using PLASTx to remove those scratches. Applied little drops, lightly wiped with a microfibre cloth in a circular motion. And after few times. The minimal scratches were gone and i noticed that, unlike before, my fingerprints are almost invisible now.

The anti shatter film is not made of tempered glass......
Sent from my C6603 using Tapatalk 2
That is true but there is still a glass behind it, so I wonder if it could affect the glass.
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
The OP mentions "minimal scratches", so I doubt that they had penetrated through the anti shatter film. Therefore the plastx will not have come into contact with the glass screen.

You should buy a new one on eBay. It is the only way I think.

LOL my thought exactly, nowdays people want unibody + SD + removable battery + unbreakable + scratch proof screen, water resistant, bomb resistant soon
Basically a phone that is indestructible not matter what and it must be below 130gram of course and have a big screen and battery.
Still looking for suggestions...

I've got the TEP, but I was curious over whether or not I have another way to fix this screen before I drop 100$ on it, maybe something to do with the 14 Sprint Return? Anything there that could help me out? Samsung Repair?
Spend the $100
For once it is a good thing to live in South Africa, Samsung is giving us here the following:

Yes I recently cracked my phone and I'm having it repaired locally. When it happens I need to know the strongest, toughest, had to be gorilla glass. 9h minimum. 4mm thick at least and have 4.5 or of 5 reviews with a few 4 minimum. Like the best premium tempered glass for note 2 and in stock. I want it in Amazon
Thanks

What I've seen "Just Like Glass: NANO" NANO glass is better than tempered glass. A guy reviewed seidio temp. Glass then ask him is this the best. Then he referred me to nano. When tempered glass cracks well most cases NANO won't ( high chance it won't )
