So I noticed there hasnt been many people talking about ghost armor and that its a favorite for a lot of people with other phones. Ive had mine installed for roughly 2 weeks now and just wanted to give my experience with it.
http://www.ghost-armor.com/Samsung/766.html
Coupon Codel: Ga4life (20% off) comes out to $25ish shipped
Whats included? You get a cardboard cylinder, 2 full body ghost armor sets (can give one to a friend and split the cost), cleaning cloth, instructions.
Installation: Real easy, Warm water in a bowl, few drops of dish soap, let skin soak for 10 secs, apply, line up, then use cloth wrapped around a credit card to remove bubbles.
My Opinion? So far i've used a lot of screen protectors on a lot of different phones. I used bestskinsever, invisible shield(several), cheap protectors, and this is the first time i've tried ghost armor. So far I got to say this one is my favorite of all that I have tried. With the invisible shield I never could get a perfect install. with the bestskinsever I got it on and without bubbles, but it seemed to lift up on the edges. My ghost armor right now is practically flawless, no bubbles, but i could of aligned it "slightly" better, but still did a good job. At first it felt a bit grippy getting it out of my pocket grabbed my wallet as well, but after several days it smoothed out and i dont have this issue any more. I havent had much issue with glare or clarity which is always a worry when trying out a new companies screen protector. I've dropped the phone once so far with it but only about 2ft and onto rug, no scratches. If your like me and dont like cases because they make the phone bulky, give this a shot, worth the money for sure.
Thanks dude! I was wondering can you put cases on with the full body ghost armor installed?

I haven't tried any cases with it, but did that 2nd to last pic to show how thin it is, so I don't see it being a issue at all

I have the gunmetal carbon fiber on my Note. It really has a good feeling. I have. Noticed that the s-pen will leave tracks in the screen protector, but it doesn't seem to change the sensitivity at all.
I have a Speck case at home and I can see if it fits.
We have a Ghost Armor kiosk right outside the Apple Store in the mall near me, and with the lifetime warranty, I consider it a well spent $35. 00

I was wondering about this. I loved ghost armor on my EVO but it did get some indentations after time as it is softer than some protectors. I was afraid the S Pen would do a number on it right away.
I am interested in hearing what you think of the protector after playing draw something with the SPen for a couple weeks.

I've had the Ghost armor on my Note for about a month now and I have to say i'm very impressed, Yes it does have a slight orange peel look to it however it has held up to everyday use and a good amount of S-Pen drawing. The S Pen does leave track lines while your using it but after a short period of time those lines tend to disappear.
I have the full body and it fits perfectly with the CaseMate Barely There case.
For the back, does it cover the camera glass?
I was actually thinking about this the other day since I had ghost armor on my SGSII and my only fear with this device is would it throw off the S-Pen pressure sensitivity on the screen when drawing. Whats your experience so far?

I do like the Armor however I have the same occurrence with the pen leaving marks. My biggest issue is I have pressed the S-Pen down fairly hard a few times for a period and the indention remains in the membrane.

S-pen does not work via pressure, it's through magnetic resonance.
It doesn't look like it in the pictures but I want to make sure, does this cover the silver trim around the edges too or just the front and back? I want a skin that covers around the edges. I just bought on of those slim cases that have the top and bottom open and I would feel better if I had a skin that covered the top and bottom.
I've been looking around online for really low profile cases and noticed that the case mate barely there and the Incipio Feather light are almost the same case (both 6oz, minimal protection, etc.) I want to order one but I'm wondering which one (if either) protects the corners of the device. From the pictures it seems that the top and bottom are not covered. I was just wondering from people who have had experience with these cases, which protects the corners better? And do either of them have a lip over the screen? If you have both then comparison pictures would be very appreciated. Thanks in advance

I'm in the same boat as you - I'd like to see a comparison between these two (or a review of either, really).
Best I can tell from their websites/descriptions, neither really covers the top/bottom or corners. From the images, it looks like the Feather kind of tapers flush with the phone at the edges a little better (a little more sleek). The Barely There has holes for a wrist strap/tether/charm thing, if you're looking for that.
The Feather has a few more colors available (black, pink, blue, and grey), but I was able to find the Barely There in three colors (black, white, and pink).
I don't see a whole lot of difference, although you can get the Feather for a bit cheaper from Incipio's website for the remainder of the month with a coupon code (SUM2012 - gives you 20% off, I believe).
I had been fond of the Incipio Feather cases since my Blackberry days... I had bad luck with case mate barely there cases breaking on me. Then I found the Amzer Shellster case and holster combo and I will never go back. more durable and a better feel.
I just got the Incipio feather case in the mail today...I had the diztronic before that. Probably post a review/some pics tomorrow. I really like the feather, brings out the beautiful design of the evo and looks much better than the diztronic. Can't say about the case mate

i've had the spigen snap case, and loved it. design and looks just fit perfectly with the phone. only problem was it not sturdy. i think i had it for a week before taking it off to install a new sd card and the case broke. hopefully the feather or the barely there are stronger in quality. these snap cases are awesome though.
nope, never could put this little protection on my evo, I take my LTEVO through too much **** lol
i was looking for a white case like this and bought this, type "White Rubberized Hard Snap-On Case Cover FOR HTC EVO 4G LTE Sprint Accessory" in ebay (sorry cant post links). The case sticks out more than the phone on the bottom but doesnt protect the front corners. The case does not cover the top nor does it stick out more and does not protect the corners. The case sticks out very slightly along the sides of the phone giving it a reallllly slight lip. Does not provide lip for the camera, so the camera stick outs verry little. Its matte white so its a bit slippery.
Black barely there case arrived today. Its great. Slim profile, premium feel. Definitely gets my recommendation.

Can anyone give me some insight on feather/snap on cases. Do they scratch or smudge the chrome/paint on the side or outer edges of the phone from simple every day use. I ordered an incipio feather case for my Samsung galaxy note 3 and I am kinda worried that it will mess up the edges of the phone by having it on.
So I received my TechMatte screen protector today. I installed it a few hours ago. I honestly didn't have high expectations for it. I had forgotten that I had a TechMatte screen protector coming, so installed my Ghost Armor screen protector when it came in on Saturday. When the TechMatte screen protector came today, I placed it over the screen just to get an idea of the coverage that it offered. I was impressed that it was truly edge to edge on top, bottom, and both sides! There literally is no room for error on install, which is a good thing in my opinion! Just use the hinge method to get it on there perfectly. Also, the Home button has a cutout for it specifically. Most screen protectors just have a U shaped cutout at the bottom, and they don't offer any coverage below the Home button. Even Ghost Armor for the Note 3 uses the U shaped cutout, where Ghost Armor for the Note 2 has a specific hole for the Home button. I expected the Home button cutout for the Note 3 to be the same as the Note 2, so I was disappointed to see that they slacked on the Note 3 Home button cutout. So earlier I peeled off my Ghost Armor screen protector and lined up the TechMatte screen protector to do the hinge method. TechMatte even includes 5 tape strips in the package that are labeled for using with the hinge method, very nice touch on there part! I used the included cloth to wipe my screen clean of any dust and/or fingerprints. The cloth they include is larger than any cloth I've received with any other brand screen protector too! So I layed the screen protector on the screen and pushed out any bubbles. There was surprisingly very few bubbles on the screen, and the ones that were there were very easy to push out. I get it on and it's lined up perfectly. After peeling off the last film from the top of the screen protector I get my first feel of the actual screen protector itself. I am truly amazed by how it feels! It feels just like the bare screen! Looks wise, unless you're really REALLY looking for it then you would never know there's a screen protector on it! An hour or so later I handed my phone to a couple friends an told them to check out my new screen protector. They didn't believe me at first! Lol. I had to point it out to them for them to believe me! They both said it feels just like glass and is perfectly clear and not even noticeable! Now I've been using touch screen phones for many MANY years, since the early Windows Mobile days. I've always had screen protectors on every phone I've owned. This screen protector is by FAR the very best I've ever used or seen! I've been a fan of Ghost Armor for quite some time, and always recommend them to everyone. Hard for me to believe, but that time has come to an end! TechMatte is hands down my new favorite! I'll be recommending them to all of my friends, and using them on all of my devices from now on! I took some pics with my Evo LTE, because it takes better photos than my Note 2. I'll post pics in the second post with it, so please no one comment until I get on my Evo LTE and put up some pics. It's hard to even see the TechMatte screen protector, but I'll try to get some closeups of the Home button and the top of the phone.

I apologize for not having the link in the OP to begin with. Anyone considering a screen protector is crazy not to buy these!! This price is insanely cheap!! This isn't just for 1 screen protector either, you get 3 with this!! Better jump on this deal while they are on sale!! I'm not sure how long the sale will last, so you shouldn't wait long, if at all!

Cool thanks. Just picked up 2 packs. I have been using the SPIGEN protectors but twice now ordering from them the packages have been damaged and they refuse to replace them. Took it up with AMAZON customer service.
Hopefully these work well. Can't go wrong for the price.
Thanks OP for the review.
TechMatte screen protectors
I received my TechMatte screen protectors in the mail yesterday for my Note 3 and Nexus 7 2013. I had never heard of TechMatte or their products before so I wasn't really sure what to expect. Upon inspecting the packaging I became worried as the image of the SP showed that it did not have a cutout for the home button but rather an upside down U-shape that starts above the home button and leaves it open below. However upon opening the packaging and inspecting the screen protectors they do indeed have a cutout for the home button that fully surrounds it and thus provides coverage for the entire bottom region of the device.
Included in the package were 3 SPs, an anti-lint/dust microfiber cloth, a sheet of tape strips to perform the hinge method for install, a squegee card to remove bubbles, and installation instructions. Installation was very straightforward being that it is a dry install. The fitment is fantastic. Other than the speaker grill and sensors it FULLY covers the front of the device edge to edge with almost no gap. Clarity is excellent and so is the "feel". I have no sensitivity loss with my fingers nor with the S-Pen. I attempted to press on the protector fairly hard with the S-Pen and also tried to make indentions into the film with my finger nails and was unable to do so.
At the current asking price of $4.50 for the kit with 3 SPs on Amazon I would not hesitate to recommend these SPs to anyone and would probably say that these may be the best bang for your buck screen protectors you can get right now. :good:

Yea, I'd never heard of them before either, so I also wasn't expecting much. I must say though, I was pleasantly surprised! They also sent me a screen protector for my N7 FHD as well, as they saw in my sig that I had one. Have you installed yours yet? If you haven't yet, definitely use the hinge method! There is no room for error on install, as this screen protector really covers from every edge to edge!!
For those looking, definitely jump on that Amazon deal!! This morning I forgot that I even had a screen protector installed!! It truly is an incredible looking screen protector, because there is nothing to look at or see!!! Lol. I'm still in amazement over it! Like I said in the OP, I've been using screen protectors for a long time and this one is definitely the best!! There really isn't any competition to these!
The only negative, which is really a positive in my opinion, is that you must install it perfectly. I've said it before, but there really is no room for error as this screen protector covers everything!! You do get 3 in the package, so if you mess up on the first install you have 2 more tries. I got mine right on the first try, so as long as you're really careful then you can as well. I highly recommend using the hinge method though!! If you aren't sure what that is then watch some YouTube videos on how to do it and you'll be set!

Yeah I installed them both last night. The Nexus 7s protector was more forgiving in it's fitment than the Note 3s IMO. The N3s SP was almost exact to the size of the screen inside the chrome bezel while the N7s left a little more room for play but since you gotta line up the camera and sensors into the small opening it made lining it up a little easier.
Link added to OP. I'll post it here also. 3 for less than $5!!!!

My Review
I have to agree with the OP. A great product with great screen coverage and feel. I received mine from techMatte a couple weeks ago:
Full Disclosure: TechMatte provided me a free sample to test
I am not normally a big fan of screen protectors for my phones. Mainly because it's just a hassle to put on and the screen just doesn't feel right as compared to the naked screen (and I can never get them lined up right).
CONTENTS: The pack I received had 3 screens along with a microfiber cloth, plastic card to squeeze out any bubbles, an installation manual, and hinge stickers (for installation).
INSTALLATION: Installation was very easy and it's a dry install. I'm a perfectionist (which is why I don't normally like putting on screen protectors) and the supplied stickers for the hinge method of installation (which was outlined in the installation manual) helped me actually get it lined up perfectly on my first try!
LOOK: Once installed it was perfectly clear. No discoloration that I could discern. There were three bubbles that I wasn't able to squeeze out immediately specifically because I missed really small pieces of lint. I was a little frustrated at first because I had thought I'd done well keeping it clean (note, I would have been better served installing in a more well lit room...I'm sure I missed them because I didn't have good lighting while installing)...but, they were really small so I figured I'd give it a little time.
I'm pleased, and surprised, to say that after a couple days those last few bubbles actually went away leaving a nice, clean, clear surface.
FEEL: As far as feel, a big question I had going into it was how would the screen feel under finger and, more importantly, under the stylus. I have a friend who has screen protector where it's very rubbery and every time he uses the stylus on his Note 2 there are grooves left behind. I can confidently say that this screen protector does not have that problem at all.
I also want to call out that the screen protector does not have an affect on the sensitivity of the screen either with your finger or with the stylus.
Under finger if I dig my nail in a bit, I can feel that it's a bit rubbery but just normal use it's smooth without any noticeable drag. It does feel slightly different from a naked screen, but it's still pleasant and not distracting at all (and I feel that I'm picky on feel).
As for the stylus, I was surprised again here. Right after it was installed there was a little bit of drag when I used the stylus but that quickly went away as I continued to use it. If your extremely picky (or if you have a heavy hand) you might notice a bit of a difference but I don't.
OVERALL: I'm absolutely sold on this screen protector and would recommend it to protect your screen. Installation was easy with the included supplies, the protector is very clear and, unless you know what you're looking for, unnoticeable once on (provided there aren't any bubbles), it doesn't alter the feel of the screen much, and doesn't affect the sensitivity at all either with your finger or stylus.
The only caution I would throw out is to be careful when installing to avoid any lint under the film. If you've done these kind of protectors before then you probably already know this.

It think it attracts a bit more than the naked screen (which is surprisingly resistant to fingerprints) , but it doesn't seem too bad to me. But...I don't have a lot of experience with different screen protectors. I can say it's better about fingerprints than the naked Nexus 4 and naked Note 1.

I have this screen protector, and I havent taken it off to try any of the others I have. It's THAT good. Once you line it up against the fat bottom, just lay it down.
Had some dust, lifted it up and used tape on the screen protector, and put it back down. Now I have ZERO bubbles and it's fantastic. 100000% clarity too. 5 stars.
I was one of the people that inquired about the new screen protectors released by the owners at TechMatte. I applied the screen protector for a few days before I received by iLoome flex tempered glass, but I must say that had I not ordered the iLoome previous to receiving this screen protector, I don't think I would have ever made the purchase for the tempered glass.
Applying was a breeze (I've done plenty in the past) and the surface is silky smooth. I don't have the orange peel effect and it makes it seem as if you were using the phone without a screen protector at all. It's that good. S-Pen glides with ease! Thickness is top notch and fits in my slim case just fine. The alignment and cutouts are to the T! All in all a great screen protector at a great price. Packaging is exceptional.
I received 3 in the package and gave the other two out to my uncle and friend. Before I gave them each one, I applied to my phone first to ensure that they wouldn't be disappointed if I was initially as they've had negative experiences in the past with other protectors. Fortunately, I haven't heard anything negative and they are still running it to this day.
If you don't want to do the tempered glass route, go with amFilm screen protectors! They're a steal at this price:
http://www.amazon.com/amFilm-Protec...d=1384831915&sr=8-1&keywords=techmatte+note+3
Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of the screen protector on the my GN3, as I have switched to the iLoome. But imagine a naked GN3 and that's essentially what it feels like.
S pen glides like a loaded down dually going uphill in deep snow. Other than that it was good. Seriously. But I did take off for another brand that is good with the s pen also.

Amazing description, lol - but did you try with the harder plastic S-Pen tip? My Note 3 came with the rubbery one pre-installed, and I switched it to the firmer plastic one right away for better gliding. It's hard to tell, but if you look closely and test them on the screen before inserting them into the S-Pen, you can tell the difference between the tips...

Hmm.. Will double check later. I could've sworn my pen came with the harder tip already on. Will be awhile before I test the am film again though. The screen protector I am using now is very good, rearth invisible defender . Very resistant to scratching and good swipe action without having to add rain x or oleophobic coating. Still haven't opened my ismooth's yet either which I liked on note2.

Hey guys,
I've tried two different glass protectors and theyve both been too narrow for the screen leaving like 1mm of unprotected screen on both sides of the phone.
Just came across this youtube video showing the Spigen Curved Crystal. I cant post links yet so just YouTube search "Spigen Galaxy S7 Crystal Curve Screen Protector Review"
The Amazon listing has alot of positive reviews but theyre mostly biased according to FakeSpot. The weird part is that the youtube review itself shows a pretty good looking screen protector that fills both sides.
Another weird thing is that on Spigen's site it costs 25$ and on Amazon its only 9$ even though its the official Spigen Amazon page.
Anyone tried it or has any info?
I desperately need screen protection thats not completely horrible.
Edit: Sorry, wrong thread.
Screen protectors are collected here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...arching-screen-coverage-glass-screen-t3328181
That thread's for people who reviewed previous glasses, and since it hasnt been reported on yet, I dont think the post belongs there.
This screen protector is awesome, but not glass

I just installed mine on Monday after I was dissatisfied with the Zagg HD Dry.
The Zagg had a rubbery feel and showed little gouges/divots that supposedly would self-heal but I just didn't like it. My case is a Spigen Neo Hybrid and I was getting some bubbling near the edges.
So far, I'm liking the Curved Crystal. No issues at all with lift near the case and a nice smooth feel.
There's a very slight green tint that I notice at certain angles. My phone is black which makes it stand out more. I also installed it on my coworkers silver S7 Edge and the green tint isn't as noticeable.
It was a bit tricky to install compared to other protectors I've used since it doesn't go all the way to the top and bottom edge and has the curve on the sides. They recommend using their stickers to hold it in place on the home button while installing. If I would do it again, I'd use two stickers on either side of the home button instead.
Also, they give you two in a package which is nice.
I bought mine through Amazon.
+1 for Spigen curved crystal from Amazon.
Was totally dissatisfied with all the 2.5d glass screen protectors I tried.
While this isn't 100% coverage it offers protection from the scratches that were starting to develop from being in my back pocket (never carried with anything else. Lint/pocket debris will scratch an unprotected s7 screen).
Spigen Curved Crystal HD is the best so far. It is a film and not glass. But it covers the full screen area just not the full front of the phone. The corners, above the top sensors, and below the home button are uncovered. It does adhere to the curved edge nicely and works with my Tech 21 case fine. Glad you get two, as I did get a few fine scratches on it when putting it on (my stupidity).
i have try some ,but they are either creat narrow , or just narrower size
I also ha e installed a spigen curved crystal HD. Nice to the touch but not as nice as glass. I wasn't a fan of the top and bottom cutouts so I cut the protector so it just covers the screen portion of the phone, looks really good besides the one piece of dust and a piece of hair that got trapped under while installing. I used the wet install method, seems to be alot easier than dry install. Other than that I'm liking it so far.

Here's pics of the cut crystal HD I modified to cover just the screen portion of the phone. If I would have made the cuts a little smother it would look even better.

This is about the best screen protector you can buy for the s7. Not easy to apply but no halo effect

just got this, and it's a really nice protector. i'm just dumb and suck at putting them on lately, so of course i got some dust under it, and after like my 5th time of peeling up a corner to remove dust, one portion towards the middle of the phone won't stick to the phone anymore, so i must have slightly bent the protector or something, bc it's a small line that just looks like a bubble, as it won't go flat. but other than that, this protector is great. fits the curved edges, no bubbling around the edges like every other one, and it seems really thin. works with my tscase leather case, but i wanna try it with my spigen neo hybrid to make sure it doesn't lift up the edges. if it does with their own brand case, then thats BS lol

Works perfect with the Neo Hybrid. No lifting or creasing. Just be careful if you gear vr if you put it into fast it can push the protector. I use that and the spigen plastic case case.

I haven't tried vr yet but I tried it in the hybrid.. it works but if you like slightly squeeze the side of the case, you can see some bubbling occur, so even their own cases will slightly lift it.

Could be placement of the protector (not completely centered). I am not getting any lift on mine. I will try and post some pictures later.
could be. it's a pain to get perfect.
