Just wondering if anyone has brought an unbranded Arc S from Sonystyle.com in the US. Did yours come with a second screen protector in the box as the unlocked ones do in Europe? Or any other unlocked Xperia phone from Sonystyle.com such as the Neo V, anyone get a second screen protector? Thanks,
Mine came with a second screen protector. Girlfriend wasted it though. She put it on without knowing there is one on already

Nope she did the right thing. Go thank her now This is what Sony support has to say about the screen protector confusion:
The scratch resistant screen is covered in a non-scratch resistant anti-shatter laminate sheet that will reduce the likelihood of the screen cracking or shattering. This is NOT the top layer intended as the laminate sheet is very easily scratched and attracts lots of dust and fingerprints. You are then supposed to put a screen protector over this laminate sheet which will do a much better job of resisting dirt, fingerprints and scratches than the laminate sheet. One is included in the Xperia packaging in unbranded models. The preinstalled laminate sheet is glued down. It can come off but it will leave a glue residue on the screen that is not easy to get off. The second layer screen protector included with unbranded models just bonds through natural static adhesion onto the laminate sheet rather than a glue.
The laminate sheet can not be replaced on its own after removal from the screen. The laminate sheet is bonded to the screen with heat as part of the production process in order to properly fuse to the glass and give it its anti-shatter properties. The laminate sheet is not sold on its own as a part and the only way to replace a damaged or removed laminate sheet is to replace the entire front screen glass panel assembly. As such Sony highly recommends you immediatly install the screen protector included with direct from Sony unbranded Xperia models or purchase a commercially available screen protector for carrier branded units.
Hi to all. I buy the case of the title. The case came with a film protector for the back of the phone. Spigen suggest to put the film in the back to avoid scratches from this case. The point is that this film is blur and I loose the shiny effect of the color. So is it safe to remove the film protector? Can anyone confirm that the use of the case without the film is safe?
Thank you!!

I am sorry for my noob question but there is a film on the rear camera? I have a UK version with Samsung sensor.

The plastic.
I thought the protective film for the camera lense.

I recently wasted about 20$ on screen protectors. First was coming off the edge because the adhesive was poor thus I had problems with my screen responsivity in some areas. Second had better adhesive, although it wasn't case friendly, and was coliding with my thing case that was just pushing it a little bit from left and right. Similiar touch problems occured. Now I am not sure if I should hunt for some curved glass again or give up for now. All of them are crappy becausw adhesive doesn't cover all the glass panel, only the edges top and bottom. I have to admit that I take care of my phone, never put it with my keys in pocket, will Gorilla Glass 5 be enough?

Waste of money IMO. Get a good balanced case and use that beautiful screen in all its glory.
First phone I'm not using a screen protector and I have to say, it's so liberating LOL!

This screen is easily scratched and easily broken. I my self use the cheap screen protectors and the loca glue. The gorrilla glass 5 is softer than 4 supposedly for better impact resistance which I find to be crap. So with the softer glass it's easier to scratch as well which in the end can compromise the integrity of the glass. Imo I wouldn't skip a temp glass
Have anybody tried these back camera film protectors? I dont know how, but My note 10+ got a tiny scratch near the center camera, even though that I put an aluminum protective ring to exactly avoid this, after this scratch happened, I am afraid it will happen again, but also I think that the quality of the pictures may be impacted, any one has tried them?
Leave it. Protective film can make photos worse. For me it's better to fix little scratches in PS than have problems with light, colors etc.

How do you fix little scratches like this?
I also would like to know how to to fix it, the scratch is very light, almost imperceptible

Have you ever received the message to clean your camera lens when taking a photo?

Yes, when smudged by fingerprints or such, but, due to the tiny light scratch I mentioned, no
I don't have anything other than a wrap on my camera. There's nothing on the lense directly above the camera sensor, but it keeps things from touching it as easily/often . Most wraps include a piece for the camera as well as the phone, I've put wraps on my last few phones, and haven't had an issue with any of the cameras. Slickwraps and Dbrand both have quality wraps. I have Slickwraps on my Note 8 and 10+. After 2+ years of being on my Note 8, the camera wrap came off a month ago only because it was peeled off in one of my bags while traveling.
That honeycomb pattern looks nice!
I know this is an old thread, but I thought people might wanna learn a few things about these camera protectors. I got one made of glass. I applied it pretty easily, though I needed to make some postapplying adjustments. I don't see any impact upon pictures, during the day or taken at night with the LED on.
There is no way you can remove scratches from the camera glass as any attempt to polish it will have negative impact upon camera performance.

Oh my...
Not needed and it will degrade the image (refraction is one way). Adding uncoated optics is a big no-no especially.
It's not glass*, it a polycarbonate I believe and not the camera lense; it's a protective cover for the camera assembly below it.
The rear cover factory protector is cheap and easy to replace after you remove the rear cover.
A Zizo Bolt case gives good raised guards to protect it.
Keep your fingers off it and clean with a microfiber cloth as needed. Use a blower bulb first to clear loose sand if present.
I live in the desert, very windy with lots of sand and grit. After over a year and a half my 10+'s rear cam factory protector has no mars or scratches.
*you can polish mars and very slight scratches out of glass optics with a dry finger or palm.
Takes about 30 minutes or more. Any type of glass polishing more aggressive than this would likely deform it to the point of noticeably altering its optical qualities.
