Another thing is I want a screen protector that is pretty slippery and my finger's don't stick and possibly with no figure prints that show.

May I recommend:

For my sweaty thumbs should I get a wet or dry application on my screen protector?

Bump before I go to bed.
I will probably get the flex HD from I think spigen it is a wet screen protector which will be good for me please feel free to comment with any other suggestions on what screen protector I should get!

Bump. I really want to know what the best screen protector is for me! Thanks

Sorry for triple post but just another bump seeing as this is a pretty simple question :good::good::good:

As mentioned above, the matte screen protectors are the lowest friction ones. But the trade off is that they reduce screen clarity, because they diffuse the light.
I'm also looking for a new screen protector because I bought some Terrapin ones that fit well, but they have more friction than the screen protector on my old phone (can't remember what that one is). If you find a good non-matte protector then let us know here

Would the SGP Flex HD be good for me and my sweaty thumbs ^_^?
I want a screen protector that I can easily glide across the screen, but still be precise
EDIT: I think this screen protector has the orange peel effect isi t a big deal or?... will that actually be better for less friction for my fingers to glide easier?

I've heard that the SGP Flex HD gets the orange peel effect can anyone help with getting a good quality screen protector that can easily glide across the screen any recommendations please!

Bump is the sigpen screen protector flex hd good? Because that is what I bought.

Recommend me a front and back protector...

When gaming, the front screen becomes unresponsive and my fingers stick to the screen.
What protector would you recommend for smooth gaming/scrolling?
Thanks fellow xda members.

These are my favorite. They are not truly anti glare. There is some reflection. But there is no pixelization or distortion. The surface is pretty smooth.
Try tempered glass.
I have glassm for now, but I gonna try the mocolo one.
Finger slips very good, and you can use basically anything to control your ultra, like a knife or a screwdriver
And yeah, if you drop your ultra the protector will brake in worst case. Your screen won't.
The film will not be able to save your phone.
Glass protector is cheaper than a new screen for sure.

I was less than impressed by mine. After trying glass, there is no way for me to go back!
BTW, on Amazon I am one of the reviewers that gave it 2 stars. Not my cup of tea but to each its own.
I bought the GearMaxx Ultra Clear. Came with two front and back protectors. Was easy to install and is hard to even tell one is on.

I've been using Skinomi TechSkin since 2004, and have never regretted installing their protectors. Great value and lifetime replacements.

Success story with Nillkin Tempered Glass screen protector *pics*

Hey guys
I dropped my phone the other day, and a wild crack appeared I figured I had shattered my screen. It did have a tempered glass screen protector on it though, so I had my hopes that the damage was minimal. I took off the screen protector today, here are the results:

The phone is 100% fine. Screen is flawless. The drop shattered the glass from the protector and not the screen itself. It was somewhat of a nasty drop too. Dropped right onto the metal legs of my desk chair :laugh::laugh:
Highly recommend Nillkin 9H hardness glass protector. I have one on the back too
nice. I have the Nillkin too since August. That shatter protection is the main reason why I use the protector. Great to see it actually works.
I almost lost hope of getting this device due to the self cracking issues, but thanks to this my hopes got high again.
Hehe yeah tempered glass is awesome, you should see the state of the tempered glass on my old Z after many concrete face plants , yet the glass underneath is mint not so much the bezels
The Z3 will be the first smartphone i use with a tempered glass screen protection.. I only heard about those from the xda forums, they're not popular at all in germany. However i really hope for a more glass-like feeling, less persistant fingerprints and so on.
Keep in mind that the tempered glass is like 0.3mm high and therefor more like to break by hits like the one you had. You can see that the crack started at the left side of the screen. Without tempered glass, the screen is flush with the bezel, so i think that your glass would have survived that, too.
Nice, but remember if its a corner impact you will be less lucky.

Best brand/quality screen protector : atFoliX - Made in Germany.
Been using their products for years on many of my devices (phones, tablets, watches), but have had hard time to find those for my 360 2nd Gen, guess it's too soon... Ended up finding it on Amazon.de http://goo.gl/wGGkuv
Don't waste your money on cheap unpopular brands, you'd just like me, throw things in the garbage
Nillkin tempered glass screen protector
Thanks for the quick replies. Beaubin are you from the US? Just curious about time frame for delivery. I might end up getting both of these, I have a tendency to scratch things so backups are nice.
I too have been looking for a bumper protector. I can't believe third party makers aren't jumping on it.
http://www.shapeways.com/product/AQ...l-gen-1?li=search-results-1&optionId=42914419
Anyone try these? Will it fit the 2nd gen?
Does anyone have a photo with a screen protector on? I feel it make look a little cheesy.

Tempered Glass Screen Protector. Not really noticeable but I've been having issues with Auto brightness since I've added the Protector. It just always stay extremely dim so now I leave it on "2" instead of Auto.

I purchased this bumper case last night for $8 and will report back, with photos, when it arrives.
http://www.shapeways.com/product/KMXRCKRGF/moto-360-gen-2-bumper-case-46mm-mens-short
The seller had various colors to choose from in both 42mm and 46mm sizes.
The bumper case arrived today. Fits nicely:
The material is slightly on the rough side, but that is mentioned in the description of the item.
My Moto also has a Slim 9H Tempered Glass LCD Screen Protector on it.

How does the material feel? I Have read a comment in the shop, that the material feels disgusting.

at first, it felt like it was going to snag on everything.
I don't even notice it anymore.
It doesn't feel great but it isn't chalky or anything.

HTC U Ultra Glass Screen Protector Thread

Alright, looks like the U Ultra is going to have curved edges, so let’s make a mega thread here for screen protectors. Since the edges are curved, we’re either going to have to make do with the non-full screen, or the protectors with the black borders and dot matrix.
Please leave links in the comments to the protectors that you are buying, and then please leave reviews after you get a chance to apply it. I’ll edit this main post every now and then with good protectors that are proven to work.
Thanks in advance everyone!!
Hi there,
Good idea for a thread.
I received this from a friend in Taiwan.
http://imgur.com/a/dnvgj
It IS full coverage, and has adhesive on the black areas as well as the clear areas. When stuck on well, there is no rainbowing, or other visible artefacts. However, my personal application was not great, I got a speck of dust and a strand of lint so i have 2 air bubbles in those spots.
Fit is pretty good. Cut out for LED and ear piece, and clear windows for the back and multitaks keys. Camera is also covered. Extends to about 1mm from actual edge.
Unfortunately, I havent been able to find this online.
Just bought this.
Will return to you when received

I'm ordering this and will report back if the results are good. This glass screen protector claims to fully cover the device. Too many screen protectors for this device don't cover the screen or completely around the home button

Strange as they shipped me a different brand altogether than the one specified on Amazon listing. It covers everything but only has adhesive on the black areas?? Either way it's not bad for what it is
Here's the bottom piece and it has no bubbles. I'll update later as wear and tear naturally happens. If your looking for full protection and still be case friendly. This is currently the best we have
Hi HTC community. I've just got this phone for Christmas. So far so good.
I'm seeing your opinions about the screen protectors, and I get the impression that the overall quality is alright in several models. But it's been a while since you last posted here and wanted to know if you have changed your mind or you still consider those protectors a good buy.
Thanks in advance!
I also bought the phone recently and this protector is working well for me without affecting colors.

Does anybody know of screen protectors which are not just transparent but have some artwork or fake speaker grills to cover the ugly top and bottom bezels?
i found really good smartphone accessories reviews on this website - https://aaaccessory.com/

Best front screen protector?

Was there ever any concensus with what the best screen protection is for the xzp? There are a couple of threads but they are far too long and out of date. Thanks in advance.
P.s the case I'm using and love is the Rugged Armor case by Spigen.
I prefer the TPU screen protectors to tempered glass protectors. Easily available on AliExpress
Pros:
Cover the whole screen, including edges
Barely visible on the screen when applied (unlike other protectors)
Cheaper
Do not break
Cons:
Difficult to apply (not that difficult though)
Do not have olebophobic coating
Takes 12 hours for smaller bubbles to disappear
Thanks, I'll have a look at that.
There are several TPU cases... Does you've a link to this item?
Can someone post edge to edge screen protector recommendation please
Has anyone tried this one?
https://panzerglass.com/screen-prot...ors/panzerglass-premium-sony-xperia-xz-black/
Can confirm the one above is quite good, slight curve on edges. Only issue is it lifts from edges in tight case like spigen

I use a TPU screen protector. It's the best for covering the whole screen.
The biggest con for me is that it is a piece of plastic and using the screen isn't as smooth due to the texture of TPU.
But still highly recommended for the protection it provides!
May I know what screen protector do you use?
I use hydrogel screen protector.
It's nearly invisible, after I applied it I literally thought I did something wrong.
It is not a good option if you have a habit of dropping your phone, I doubt it will help in this case, but it's amazing, it feels very pleasant, it hides existing small scratches, you have less fingers prints and material is self-recovering, small scratches arw gone after 24hours.
I’m using Skinomi screen protector, it protects the screen perfectly, no bubble and invisible.
