What's the best way to holiday proof my phone to protect it from sand etc? Some sort of special case?
Screen protector is probably a must.
Something to cover charging and headphones ports?

First a tempered glass screen protector
Can you elaborate what even is that? Tempered glass? How do you apply it if its glass?

tempered glass is a screen protector that can be as strong as glass, for example if you are using it and you drop your phone and the tempered glass gets cracked you phone screen would be left intact, watch pass 3min mark
That's good. Looks like a gel type case should be enough. With a tempered glass screen protector. Just ordered port covers too for charger and headphone ports. They are for an S3 but exactly the same ports so should be fine.
I just don't want sand to scratch the phone or clog up any ports.

yea screen protector is very important when going to beach I learned this when I got the lifeproof case for my s3(nuud which I liked because it was waterproof and you had direct access to touchscreen) sadly sand doesn't agree with gorilla glass it scratches it like a cat and it's scratching post so tempered glass will help you just have to be careful with cases because the tempered glass is somewhat thicker than a regular screen protector and if you have a case which meets a specific size and rest on screen it may not fit together with tempered glass
Thanks for the help and suggestions. If anyone else wants to input further please feel free.

Hi,
I bought a tempered glass screen protector for my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge which also covers the curved screen edges. I tried putting on a fitted case and BOOM, the tempered glass broke. I guess it caught on the glass.
Any tips on my next buy and attempt? [emoji23]

I've heard that they are all pretty much no good. I looked for awhile when I had my S7 and nothing really worked.

I've also watched some YouTube videos and when they tried to put on a case with their tempered glass on, it gets removed.

The minimal protection cases work fine with tempered glass screen protectors, but you will have problems with virtually all combinations of rugged protection cases and tempered glass screen protectors.
Huge discussion in the Accessories forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/accessories/curved-tempered-glass-screen-protector-t3320688
Basically it has been decided that all of the tempered glass screen protectors are the same Chinese crap, just purchased and branded by different companies. Even well respected companies like ZAGG are guilty of this. The one from GPEL is the least bad, but it is still not great and they keep delaying their revised version.

Thank you. So, for the mean time, I'll just have to choose between having a protective case or a screen protection? [emoji23]

You could always use a case friendly film protector. Of course this will not protect the glass from breaking, just scratches. I'm using this combo with the UAG case, rather have the drop protection that just the screen.
How far has the film protectors come? I've used one many years ago and the feeling was sluggish, like my finger sticked a bit to the film.

There's a very long, detailed thread on TGSPs in the S7 Edge accessories forum. Suggest you look there.
Hello everyone
I have a feeling that these are the best screen protectors on the market (am I wrong? I read hundreds of reviews..)
Of the three I mentioned in the title.. What do you think best screen protector?
Can you also information why? And specify a specific model?
Thanks!!!
TGSP - GPEL Version 2
- If you dont plan on using any case, then this is best option.
Screen protector : BestSkinsever
Case fit version (Glossy/Matte)
- This seems to better than skinomi and IQ Shield.

Then buy BestSkinsEver case fit version
If you apply tempered glass and then once u put case, it will lift off and well rest will be history.

I would be happy more Comments :highfive:
Interested in this as well. Atm I have a foil that has been manufactured in Germany. Fits the screen perfectly, but doesn't feel as good as glass.
Zagg HD Dry would be my vote. No longer rubbery like they used to be (the one I had on my old Galaxy S2 was terrible), and it feels very much like glass. Also doesn't curl at the edges with a proper fitting cover. Also comes with a lifetime replacement guarantee.
Avoid all the glass protectors on curved screens. It doesn't matter how much they cost, they never fit correctly and raise on the edges resulting in touch screen issues until they're removed. They're a complete waste of money and I'm amazed people still bother with them.

Hopefully, he'll fit 100%. :good::good:

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.
How is it that no one has ever heard of GPEL tempered glass
(GEN 2) for the s7 edge. its amazing!!!
mine broke once & they even sent me a free replacement too!

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:

and the case:

Somewhat difficult to install but then it's excellent.
