Need some protection help - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers

Im trying to see if any1 had any luck with a glass screen protector and a case

I've looked on eBay and have seen some, it would be nice if invisible shield would just make one already. I have the regular invisible shield on right now and the corners bubble.

Check out Seidio cases. I have one and it's great.

I bought a spigen case on ebay for $10 and I love it. The screen does not touch the surface. As for the (tempured) screen protector, no luck with out dishing out around 30-50 and who knows of they are any good. I bought a $15 one on ebay and returned it. I'm going to wait till a reputable protector comes out.

Cheapo screen protector on the front, stock protector that comes with it on the back and s-line tpu case. Eventually will be installing my ArmorSuit full body protection hopefully with some kind of bumper.
Still have the factory screen protectors on mine, even though I've had it for 2 weeks Lol. Haven't found time to put my BestSkinEver on it yet.

Advice for screen protectors (both anti-glare and clear) for the Nexus 4

I'm looking for both types at a decent quality to price ratio. I'm not looking at spending 15+ bucks for 1-2 protectors. I've used DCMUGEN screen protectors from eBay on previous phones and loved them. However, I'm not able to find these for the Nexus 4. Any suggestions? I'm using a cheap one right now but it scratches really easily.
Check the accessories section. A lot of options there.
I ordered on eBay spigen ultra crystal screen protectors. You get 2 for 13.99 free shipping and no tax on eBay .
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Yeah I use the spiegen ones and they are pretty good. Main thing is that they do not cover the sensors and the screen responds to touch as normal - at the same time protecting your screen

Do you use a case?

Just wondering if people use their G2 without a case lol I feel like it's going to snap in half if I dint have one on
I use the quick window case and it rocks.

ever since the first drop which also broke my screen I always use a case right I'm using spigen slim armor also I'm first to vote
I feel like the case is mandatory on this phone. One of my only complaints about it. I wish I could get away from using a case because the size feels so much better that way but it just doesn't feel sturdy enough.
I've got the LG smart window case but I'm scared to use it because people saying it scratches the LG g2 screen

I also am using the "slim armor" it is a great case so far. I also have the screenmate "flex" screen protecter on the glass... amazing so far!

I don't use a case, but I do use a vinyl back and a screen protector. That's the best balance for me of protection and comfort.
I use the Seido kickstand case. It seems thin compared to the Trident Aegis case I had on my Sg2.
Body glove, not worth breaking the phone.

I went with no case for a few weeks had a minor drop ding up the corners and was pissed. So I used the quick window case and then got scratches on my screen around the quick window from little things getting caught around and under the window I guess. Since I got a warranty replacement recently its a case and screen protector just to be safe.

Incipio Brig. No better case out for this phone.
Casemate tough case. Its dope because the rubber wraps over the face just enough to cover the screen protector as well. Looks good and is still slim.
LG G2 ftw
Spigen case and bullet proof tempered glass screen protector. it works. I hit it with a hammer and it did not crack. i used more force and the protector shattered but not my screen
the phone is a bit slippery without a case.
I'll be getting a wood skin thing from these guys as soon as they're for sale. Supposedly by the end of the month. http://toastmade.com/Android.html
D30 case hands down the best there is.

tempered glass screen protectors???

Hey forum, I just got a s7 edge and am in the market for a tempered glass screen protector.
I've hit Amazon and ebay, scammed through pics and reviews from customers and it looks like there's little to none that cover the whole screen (edges included) that are durable, adhere well and stick to the screen and if there case friendly that would be nice.... If anyone has any they'd recommend Id appreciate it.

Its to hard make them out of glass because the screen is curved. Ive haven't seen any that have gotten good ratings. A few companies like zagg have them on the way. Zagg invisible shield is my go to protector. I'm sure there are a lot of great protectors I have not tried.

Don't waste your money on "tempered glass" protector. I've had two different brands and both of them lifted off the phone and cracked. None of them seem to be case friendly.

Hey papa mag, by Amy chance have you received the taken temp glass yet? I'm eager to hear what you half to say about it, this normal screen protector stuff isn't too bad but I'm eager to get my hands on a temp glass that is half decent, the zagg one should drop next month from what I hear.

Yes I did and it was a piece of cake to apply. Unfortunately I was stupid and in too big of a rush to put my case back on. I noticed that one corner of my case was hung up and while trying to fix that issue I cracked the screen protector.
I will say that it lined and matched up perfectly no issues with touch sensitivity the edge feature is less responsive. Do to my own stupidity I have another glass on the way.

F that bro. You'll be just spending money on screen protectors. I still have my Zagg shield that I had to literally cut every single corner in, in order for any of my cases to fit properly. Sucks to not have tempered glass I love it but I rather have my edges. Im looking forward to the note 6. Rumored 4000 MAh battery, and two variants. Everyone including myself will take a note with spen and the beauty of the edge screen along with s7 edge features(water resistant/SDcard). Next year there bringing out the BIG GUNS. With foldable phones. Seeing people really liked the edge I believed Samsung is ready now, back when they revealed the concept(S3) it wouldn't be a good idea, now tho im sure they perfected the technology and were ready for what will bring out next.

I got the Taken Screen protector today. Let's just say I feel "Taken". Protector went on ok and that wasn't the issue. It was a fingerprint/palm print/smudge magnet. It was so bad that I thought there was a protective cover plastic on the glass. Sadly there wasn't. There is a thin piece of sticky adhesive around the inside of the glass that is used to adhere the protector to the phone. This made a crinkly sound anytime you pressed where the adhesive was. After 15 minutes, my screen was naked again.

From what I've read most curved glass screens require additional duct tape to hold it in place...and because they don't have any glue in the middle, it doesn't really contact the screen itself, ruining touch sensitivity.
I had a tempered glass on my s6+ it glued just fine but is it worth using

Are you using a case with it?
I've got a clear Ringke case that was 99 cents as a preorder. It just barely touches the corners of the screen protector. Doesn't seem to be pushing it up after a few days.
Had the Skinomi on for one day. Applied perfectly with no bubbles or lint or anything in a steam filled bathroom and then let sit for a day. Shortly after putting the case on, started bunching up on 2 corners and this was the case friendly film I might add. Next day I broke down and went to ATT store and put the curved plastic protector they had there. Better than nothing and plays well with my case.
Problem with that is not every case is the same. Sounds like your case goes farther up on the screen than mine. Which case had issues with the Skinomi?
