What is a screen protector (preferably matte) that is good for this case and it does not peel at the edges because of the case pushing it?
I have no issues with the Steinhal SGP with this case. The screen protector is a bit smaller than the screen so there is no issue with the case pulling it off.
hi guys,

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.

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 .
Anyone here use the phone naked ( without the case ) or at lease with full body film protector? I am thinking to go case less because it adds weight and takes away the natural design/feel of the phone.
I use the phone with a slim case but to date I have not been able to find a screen protector that works. I am finding the tempered glass is far from perfect and leaves a very small pocket of space between it and the glass making me have to press harder in some areas to get the screen to respond. I hate to do it but I think I will have to use my S8 with no screen protector until someone can come up with a tempered glass protector that has glue all over instead of just around the edges.
I'm running an IQ Shield full skin. Fitment is spot on. It's got Front, back and all the sides covered.
Whitestone Dome Glass is a glass protector with adhesive all around. It's a complex process to apply, but if you get it right, it works. I have one here, but I haven't applied it. The glass is case friendly and covers slightly less that a full screen. I may use it at some point, though.
I generally always use phones naked out of appreciation for the design.
Too bad there's still no tempered glass protectors for curved screens so it's kinda risky..
Currently using naked and I find my finger gets sore from holding at bottom of phone by using one handed from the usb port so will be putting my case on soon for comfort.
Hey all, hope your day is going well.
(sorry for no links, XDA doesnt allow it)
I have bought my S8, I also have bought 2 cases and a screen protector....
The case i am CURRENTLY using Ottobox's Commuter series.
The second case i have is Spigen's slim fit case.
Now... Here is my question and problem, i know nothing much about protection and it seems i can only use a tempered glass protector on the Spigen one... As the Ottobox case doesnt allow it to fit.
Should I use the Spigen Case + Glass together? Or would it be better just to go without the tempered glass and use the Ottobox one.
OR should I get the RhinoShield? Just purchase the back and front tempered glass they provide.
Hey mate, here is my honest opinion.
I bought a Poetic slim case for my S8 and I couldn't be happier. It actually protects the edges cuz of the frame being a bit high. However, I bought a glass screen protector and unfortunately didn't sit flat on the screen. I had to press on hard to get it to work. I ended up taking the screen protector off and let be without it. Now, I'm telling you this because you might face the same issue with screen protector. Somehow these screen protectors aren't quite 100% designed to fit perfectly for these new devices. If I were you I would stick with something that will provide the best protection for you device. I will eventually buy a more rugged case for it, but for now this case it's more than enough. You said you bought a screen protector for the front and back? Let me know how the front glass works for you. If it works fine and it fits properly I might buy one too.
Protect your device mate and take care of it. ? cheers.
