Hey all, the screen protector on my N4 is starting to peel off the sides and it's been bothering me quite a bit lately. I tried applying some of the solution (water/soap) on the parts that are peeling but it doesn't seem to work, does anyone have a solution or a good trick?
Screen protector is a BestSkinsEver.
That's the trouble of screen protectors on curved glass.
You may have to contact BSE to see if they recommend anything or if they will send you a replacement.

no matter what you do it'll eventually always end up that way. some screen protectors specially wet installs stick better than others but for this particular phone you'll eventually run into that problem because of how the glass is curved at the edges so it doesn't get a proper stick.
Hi Guys,
I bought one of these Orzly glass screen protectors for my clumsy brothers Lumia 950XL mainly because I've heard of the brand before as i had used Orzly Flexy case for my Nexus 6P.
What is quite good about the screen protector is the fitting, the screen protector goes right the way to the edge. As the screen protector is curved on the edges, it feels pretty much seamless when you run your finger from the side of the phone to the screen. Small details but it makes a difference to how it feels when you're using it.
There's cut outs for the speakers and proximity sensor so none of that is obstructed.
So far so good, my brother forgets that he even has a screen protector on his device. When i last saw it, it looked exactly the same as it did when I installed it on his 950XL.
Overall I can't fault it and think it's a brilliant piece of kit for keeping the screen safe, so thought I would share my thoughts on here for anyone else looking for glass screens for their 950XL.
Here's some pictures I took of it.....
Thanks for this. I was thinking of getting some kind of screen protector but think I will get this one.

As far as I'm aware, the consensus is that tempered glass protectors with the S7 Edge and the majority of cases simply don't work.
FYI, I've tried quite a few different protectors and cases here in the UK with next to no luck.
Just thought I'd inform you of my experience
So here's what I'm using.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MZ02Y2I/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It was easy to install and hardly noticeable.
The screen looses sensitivity and makes texting slightly difficult at times but still tolerable after you get used to it.
I also have an Otterbox Defender. I peeled the annoying screen protector off of that and installed this tempered glass protector then installed the case.
Flawless fit! Don't know anything about Zerolemon cases though.
Nevertheless, I'm very satisified with my tempered glass protector.
Also... perhaps your inquiry would have been better posted here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/accessories/curved-tempered-glass-screen-protector-t3320688
I used the original zagg glass and trimmed a bit off of the zerolemon case at the bottom chin.
It fits fine without modification with the new zagg glass.
I went to the extreme on this case because I been through more screen protectors than I should have. What I did was trim down the inner lip of the case that touches the screen. I used a slightly sharp exacto knife and slightly trimmed away all the hard edges surrounding the phone a little at a time. Doesn't take much trimming to get it to work. Mine looks not all that perfect but now my screen protector is good no problems
I'm on the same boat and unless there's a screen protector that only covers the screen and doesn't go up to the four corners, I don't think there are any screen protectors out there right now that won't get pushed in by a case.

Here's a review of the GPEL one. It's not a positive one.
"Review of the GPEL Tempered Glass Screen Protector for the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge"
https://youtu.be/FZxTsYOQdak
i've had this tempered glass for about 2.5 months now. I use it with the samsung leather case & the ringke slim case.
as long as you dont use a case that extends/overlaps over the edges this works beautifully!!
i wouldnt mind buying this again! Highly recommended!

the glass reviewed in the above video is gen 1 which i admit did have issues.
they had fixed most gripes with gen 2 since!

I ran into the same thing, but I found the Zagg Invisible Shield glass curve for S7 Edge. It is expensive, but it is a bit smaller than the others so most cases don't affect it and work fine. I'm currently using it with the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Hybrid case.
So far this is the only curved glass screen protector that works with anything more than a minimal case.
Here's the link to the screen protector:

The stock screen protector is rubbing off so I replaced it with a new one.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N3ZTMLG/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Unlike the stock one, this one is the hard glass. (the stock one is a film).
The problem with this screen protector is that it is a grease/finger print magnet. Ususally I can remove the grease/finger print from the screen by rubbing it on my shirt. With this one, it just moves the finger print grease around. No my shirt is not greasy because I tried it on another phone and it didn't smear the grease around. The only way to get a clean screen is if I use a micro fiber clothe with some water. Also I noticed that my screen is not as bright as before with the new screen protector, especially when using it outdoors.
I was thinking about remove the screen protector all together. Since our phone has Corning® Gorilla® Glass 3, it "should" be fine. But before I remove the new screen protector, just wondering if anyone is going bare on the screen and if they have any issues with scratched screen.
Thanks
I haven't had any screen protector on my phone since october. Screen is fine, although I haven't dropped my phone.
I have been using the same screen protector which i bought from aliexpress and i can feel the brightness problem but i am fine with it since this tmp glass removes entirely the ugly black borders from the phone.
I dont know if there is a good color tempered glass which does both.
Just removed the aftermarket screen protector today and going bare. So far it seems fine and resistant to scratches as well. It feels a lot better than the stock screen protector or the aftermarket one. It is a lot brighter and really smooth. Another thing that I noticed is that it is a lot more sensitive to the touch.
Never used any sort of screen protector on my phones. Never a single scratch.
As long as you do not put any other items in a pocket with a phone, it should be fine.
I have tried 3-4 different screen protectors and none of them seem to stick properly. They never want to stick on either (or both) the left and right sides of the screen. idk what the issue is but I've never had that problem on other phones
I'm too afraid to not use any screen protector. The camera lens scratches so easily that I don't trust the glass at all.

I Have the same problem. While the screen protector is ok and protects the phone, it catches fingerprints and the most anoying thing, outside it reflects everything and I can't see very well. I didn't find any matte or anti-glare tempered glass screen for le pro 3. Only iphone and something else. If anyone finds something good post a link please.

It has been a week now since I removed all screen protector and I am happy that I did it. It feels so much better and I can say that the gorilla glass on this is legit. I work in a warehouse and I have my keys and a box cutter in my pockets. I try to keep them away from my phone but when you are moving fast, sometimes the box cutter ends up in the same packet as my phone. So far still no scratch on the screen.
I'm still keeping mine, even if reflects everything because on my old phone covered with full cover, front and back, dropped on a corner of the screen, the screen protector took the fall and broke instead of the actual screen. So better to be cautios.
Mine came with a screen protector (X727), but I ripped it off very quickly. I haven't broken a single smartphone yet.
No screen protector since day one. No case either. Dropped it few times and cosmetic glass around camera cracked. Front screen is pristine, which is surprising since I am not careful with it.

Found these cases on Amazon that provide screen protection. I have used similar cases on other devices and have had good luck in preserving the screen without the use of a screen protector:
kw mobile canvas case
kw mobile cover shell case
Never used any screen protector on my smartphones, since my first Sony Ericson P800 years before the first iPhone were released...
Never broke the screen, had a few small scratches on some of them (not all though), and I usually keep my devices for 3 to 4 years. My previous phone was a Samsung Note 2, the screen is still perfect.
I will not put any screen protector on my Le Pro 3 either...
I was using the stock screen protector which was preinstalled until today. Sand scratched it so I removed it.

Is anyone having issues with corners of your tempered glass protectors not adhering properly? I'm getting white ghosting all around the protector. Replacement ones had the same effect...

Same problem for me.I think its because of the curve of the screen
I got the full coverage one from aliex, no problems with adhesion, but it's an awfull magnet for smudges and fingerprints, and dulls the colors of the screen, gonna run it a few days just for kicks, but I'll remove it for sure.
And oh, havent had a screen protector, not since day one, and no problems, not a scratch on my phone (I do take care of my gadgets though)

mine doesn't even cover the screen fully...baffled by this, honestly.
I removed screen protector today. Got sick of dust and other sht all around due to corners of glass not adhering properly. The phone looks much better, so far so good.
Just in case try to avoid keeping it with keys etc. Also check this .
Just bought a galaxy s8, was having some problems with it, so verizon sent me a free glass tempered screen protector I just got it in the mail. I have a cheaper plastic one on it now. But I read the reviews that the verizon glass protector isn't really that good. What's your guys opinion? I got it free so value for the money isn't an issue, I just want to make sure it's gonna stay on and not have to put my finger though the screen to get it to work. Thanks guys.

I personally don't like glass screen protectors, but there are many people that do. The reason that I don't is that on screens that are curved, a lot of times the edges start to peel and you see a bubble, which isn't good. Manufactures have tried to make the screen protector a little smaller/narrower, so it stops when the edge starts to curve, but then again, it doesn't look good and I could feel the edge of the glass protector when swiping from the edge and it is annoying (IMO). If I buy a screen protector, I usually get something like Armorsuit military grade screen protector that you apply by spraying a solution and installing it. Gives you room to move the protector around until you find a perfect fit and then squeeze the water out. I don't drop my phones, so never had to test it, but I do see that this screen protector is much better and thicker than a regular thin plastic one.
