Which Screen protector i should choose? Not the official one.
By the "official one" I assume you mean the OP screen protector. If that's the case I would recommend either the RhinoSheild tempered glass, which I've had good experience with on other phones one, or the Orzly tempered glass one which everyone seems to love.
I don't use a screen protector ATM but used the official OP one cause it came with the bundle I bought and it worked just fine.

Hi,
I put my phone in my gf's purse in a pocket just next to her earings (which I had not seen obviously) so my z2 screen got now a very obvious scratch that I would like to remove.
I can't feel it with my finger but it's still visually very annoying.
I tried the toothpaste but didn't do anything.
Would you have any product to recommend?
Thanks for your help!
Damn, thought the screen would be more resistant than that : ( Guess it's not as solid as Gorilla Glass.
Apply a screen protector, it normally helps hiding scratches
I highly recommend grabbing a glass screen protector (Nillkin on eBay is pretty good). It'll hide the scratch *and* feel great.

Yeap...
I'm using Nillkin tempered glass on all my devices and it's awesome.
First thing when I'm buying new device is ordering Nillkin TG.
I still have one I applied on Z1 and it's just like it was the first day.
I'm cleaning my devices by showering them and washing them in water so that's pretty awesome protector which could take all that and still stay proudly on screen

Metal should not scratch the screen.
Sand, glass or any other kind of silicon will though.
I had Nillkin Tempered glass, it couldn't apply/align properly. One edge was not good. Got angry and broke the glass lol. I'm totally OCD about screen protectors.
I generally do not use screen protectors, because even if they are immaculate when you put them on, they quickly become less so. The cure is worse than the disease. The only way I'd use one is if I was very very concerned about resale value and did not care if my display quality was impacted.
Use tempered glass on all my devices and it's awesome. Don't even notice it's there, it just protect my screen. The first thing I order when I get a new phone.

Screen protectors vs tempered glass is a world of a difference. Tempered glass does not show signs of scratches or air bubbles unlike normal screen protectors. They also dont hamper touch sensitivity and save the screen from the various damages we might inflict otherwise..

You can try Glass4M or iTop Tempered Glass.
iTop is quite hard to find but it's verry popular in my country. The screen protector fit perfectly and cost me about $10.
And put their own, or is the one the Op2 comes with good protection enough?
I took it off to replace with a spigen hd one. But it is a good one. Should have left it. Haha
Yeah I replaced mine with a glass one. The one on it is not to bad though. I just like glass protection and the feel.
Took it off today to replace with tempered glass, but it's OK protection for free.

Same as everyone else - I replaced it today after maybe 6-7 days and threw tempered glass on there. Smudge-free now.
Same. Replaced with tempered glass after a few days..prefer the feel and protection of tempered glass.

Well my uncle bough the opt for me, and I bought a tampered glass protector from OP for it, but my uncle says to use this one until it gets dirty then use the protector ;~; I can't argue since he bought me teh phone..

I have the tempered glass one for it from one plus but will wait a few days. Hard to believe it will be smudge free after I put it on. I was just concerned taking the free one off that it would leave some kind of residue.
It's a piece of cheap plastic which does no favors for either protection or screen clarity. Replace it with tempered glass, the difference is HUGE.

I have a pthink tempered protector coming, what's the best way to remove the original and replace with the tempered without dust and stuff getting underneath? Last time I tried I failed miserably and frisbeed the glass on into the wall
I just dislike screen protectors. Never had a problem with scratches on any phone in the past.
I ended up taking it off and put on tempered glass, I recommend it.

Which one did you install? Really smudge free?
Anyone installed the Non Glass screen protector from OnePlus ?
I have it and I'm wondering if it's better than the factory installed one.
I replaced mine with one of the Orzly tempered glass protectors, and it's WAY better than the stock. The stock one is fine, but it's a fingerprint/smudge magnet, and it's not as smooth as a glass protector. I've used Orzly protectors on all my devices and they're fantastic. The one I had on my 1+1 saved the screen after a drop in a parking lot. The protector took the impact and shattered instead of the screen.
Took off the free one in 24 hours. It was good except it was a fingerprint magnet. So many smudges. Happy with tempered glass.
I removed the stock, then applied the orzly tempered glass right after. Definite improvement!

The easy way of getting this explained is this. The phone comes with a thin layer that is OK at best. If you have a flip case then you might be happy with that but if your screen is going to be exposed then purchase a tempered glass 1. If your going to invest money in a device and it quite obvious that you will be looking at the screen a lot then protect it. Its not like it's gonna break the bank and you will never worry. ☺

I just got my G5 Plus. I want to know that is ok to have nothing on screen for protection or I get a screen protector or tempered glass?
Btw which ram variant you got? 4 GB one? How's initial impression? All good?
Yeah, 4GN one... All seems perfect... All good... Took pics as well.., Pic was very good crisp and very good
Screen protectors only protect from micro scratches, which will in any case be minimal on a gorilla glass protected display. Tempered glass (in india) are the cheapest possible slabs of glass with adhesive which makes any mobile look goofy and cheap. I really dont think either of this protects your phone in case of a fall. get a nice case and be done with.
Cool. I am waiting for mine to be delivered
Oh and ya I'll be using glass protector for bestest safety.
@ batmobile_bang Yeah I will be getting a good case for sure but was asking about the screen. As it attracts fingerprints so I was thinking to have screen protector on it. What you think? will it be good to have screen protector?
BTW i hate tempered glass
I am waiting for neelkin cases and screen glass to get released.
Are you using a screen protector you can recommend? I'm in the UK, so it would be helpful if I can buy it from a UK source. I've seen someone suggest the Skinomi in this thread but not sure I need the a whole-phone cover. I know tempered glass ones are problematic due the the curvature of the screen. If you're using one that's good and you can recommend it, please post a link...
Thank you!
The nilikin screen protectors are pretty good! The tempered glass screen protectors are rubbish man.. They have a ton of room left over unprotected on the screen and they have extreme halo.. I would recommend getting one of the plastic ones. Nilikin or IQ shield, both can be found on amazon.
2.5D curved glass and non-removable batteries are the most obvious planned-obsolescence type of features.
If you break the fragile screen you are very likely to have to get a new device.

Yes, there's a bunch of reports online stating that the phone comes with a pre-applied screen protector.
only the early oneplus one didnt have one but the later oneplus one did come with one preapplied and then the later models up to the 3t do have them.
The specs on the official page states there is one pre-fitted
Does the screen protector hold up or does it start coming off like most do?

I still have the OEM screen protector that came on my OnePlus 2 and I don't use any kind of case... there are a FEW tiny scratches on it but it's still pretty much as good as the day I got the phone. I don't see any reason why the one on the 5 will be any less awesome

So there's no need to get the official screen protector? https://oneplus.net/oneplus-5-3d-tempered-glass-screen-protector
Or is this one better than the pre-installed protector?

The included one is just a standard plastic protector. The one you linked to is a tempered glass screen protector. While it is thicker, and susceptible to cracking, the one I used on my OPO was delightful to the touch.
Is it recommended to remove the factory screen protector before applying the official tempered glass protector? Or can you simply apply it on top of the factory protector.
