I just got this superb case in Amazon. I love it....it's well made with good plastic material and grip. It adds a little bulk but....i still like it...it looks like a tank. Lol. The only thing that i hate with this case is ut comes with screen protector which is built in and when u place your phone in...it shows rainbowing distortions...it's more noticeable when the screen is off and intense direct light to the screen. Any how when...you turn on the screen everything looks fine and the touch responsiveness too aren't minimize.
Im planning to rip the builtin screen protector and get a hd film or glass i hope it will still fit when installed back in the case.
I'm confused. That's totally different from this unicorn beetle case

what glass screen protector did you used? I was concerned with the thickness
@hatyrei - on the back of your phone, there is a sticker (in the second picture) attached on your power and volume keys, not to be rude but that is supposed to be removed, unless you want it, those are just intended to be temporary indicators.
@Ronde90 - What glass screen protector are you using? I popped out the one there and bought a thin one (that sadly is a fingerprint magnet) for now but wanted to see if a glass one fit. How are the smudges? What brand/model/price?

Hi guys. I ordered this one:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00KLDJAO8?pc_redir=1404818582&robot_redir=1
It was pretty inexpensive and I didn't want to spend 40usd on one so I figured what the hell, I'll try it. It looked nice and was one of the only glass screen protectors that covered the entire screen, meaning that there were no jagged cut outs for camera or anything. Plus it is only 2mm thin and has rounded and bezeled edges. After using for a day or so I have to say it is fantastic. If feels great and you barely know its there since it is so thin and clear. It really is smudge resistant unlike many other glass screen protectors. It is also very easy to apply. It uses some kind of silicone based adhesive so it adheres better to the screen and is less prone to having bubbles be caught under it when applying it. The screen protector is also very easy to remove and reapply. I actually used it for a day, then took it off when I got the unicorn Beetle pro case. After two days of the scrappy Beetle screen protector, I ripped it off and reapplied the glass screen protector with no issues at all; I wrapped up the glass screen protector in wax paper for the mean time.
If you're on the fence, pull the trigger and I promise that you won't be disappointed, especially at the price on amazon now.

Exactly what I did and am absolutely loving it. This case works wonders (assuming you rip out the ****ty built-in protector and replace it with glass) and isn't too bulky.
man you guys are tempting me really badly. i love the look of this case!
im liking it a lot, it reminds me of the urban armor cases. im going to order one
Tada..... , after ripping out the builtin plastic screen protector... I installed the new glass screen protector by iCarez. And I'm happy to tell u guys it fits very well. Just becareful when you put the screen protector be sured the front cam isn't hindered or covered.

I use the S-Pen a lot, mostly for sketches or quick notes. I have gone through a bunch of screen protectors that either leave scratch marks or create a lot of friction, like rubber on rubber. I really don't want to use one of those thick glass screen protectors since the one I bought literally shattered within a month lol. Instead of wasting 100+ bucks trying to find the right screen protector it would be awesome if someone could recommend one that they have personally used and works great with the S-Pen.
Instead of replacing your screen protector again, have you changed your spen tip? Try the plastic ones that came with it instead of the rubber ones.

I had a transparent TPU case on it, but like you said because they are so thick there isn't much of a lip. They are more apt to getting hit. I was thinking of maybe getting those cheap tempered glass protectors from eBay since there isnt that big of a difference in quality, they are only like 8 bucks so i can probably buy 5-6 in bulk.

Zagg. I don't use anything else. Feels nice with the pen. Good warranty too - Samsung had to replace one of my Note 3s, so they took the Zagg off and stuck it on a piece of paper. It's costing me a little over $3 (shipping & handling, I guess) for a new screen protector. Zagg didn't do anything wrong, the protector's still fine. But they're replacing it.

Considering that witht the seperate s pen digitizer you can use your pen juat aboce without touching screen protector should have zero effect on it.

I use amzer shatterproof screen protector on my N3 and am also using the stylus from a quite long time and I have not faced any problem in using it...its working smooth and fine...yes tempered glass screen protector works well but I would say my screen protector is also working really well...
Don't worry about what screen protector you get (except the real rubbery ones/wet apps) whether it be tempered glass or pet when it comes to the s-pen. Get the one you want, try the s-pen out and if it's too sticky replace the tip with the plastic tips included with your phone. The one that's installed out of the box is the rubber tip so it'll stick to pet more and function better with tg. The plastic tip slid easily on both. Personally I liked the rubber on tg because the resistance reminds me of actually writing with a pencil.
You have to look very carefully at the tip of the replacements and you should see a difference between some of them. I believe 3 rubber ones and 2 plastic ones are included in the replacement tips.
My personal recommendation (I've tried the spigen tr, spigen ultraclear pet, 8 dollar ebay TG, and Nillkin H+) is the Nillkin H+ which is about $16 if I remember correctly. Perfect tempered glass screen protector and the price is significantly lower than spigen and iloome(except flex).
Edit: and you shouldn't worry about using increased sensitivity or anything, I personally haven't heard of a case where the screen protector has caused issues.

I'm using the mime feather light and it's amazing .smoother then stock imo.
The S-Pen does not use the capacitive digitizer and "Increase Touch Sensitivity" will do nothing. If you read up on the way the Wacom digitizer for the S-Pen works, you will see that the digitizer tracks the S-Pen's location above it and S-Pen itself is what signals when contact was made and how much pressure was applied, so the thickness of the glass doesn't matter as long as it is in range of the Wacom digitizer (where the pointer is visible).
I use the crystal clear from spigen and changed the tip of s-pen to plastic one and it works flawlessly.

I did not realize that. Thanks! What is the advantage of the rubberized tips? Just for feel?
Got my note 3 a few days ago and I'm loving it. I love the feel, the leather back, the slimness. It's great. But I feel I should be protecting it somehow.
I went for an official S View case but it turns out it's not official and i'm not sure I want to spend £50 on a case that doesn't offer full protection.
I've had a browse but can't seem to find one that would not effect the profile of the phone. Does anyone have any suggestions
Thanks.

Dunno about slim cases (I have a UAG), but I'd definitely recommend a tempered glass screen protector. Especially if you were interested in getting the authentic S-view case.
I bought an $8 eBay protector recommended in the tempered glass screen protector thread and have been very happy with it. Cheap way to keep your screen scratch free.
The problem I've found with screen protectors is that I can't apply them for them life of me. They always bubble or get fluff stuck under them.

Try the tempered glass protectors. I used the MIME Ghost Glass for my S4 and i just got one for my Note 3. It just got here like 30 min ago. IF you get one, you don't have to worry about bubbles, they come out on their own in like an hour or 2. Just apply it in a bathroom after running the shower with hot water to get a touch (NOT a lot) of steam in the air. That pulls all the dust particles out of the air as you apply it.
As for the cases, I agree. I like the feel of the Note 3 naked. I also got a case that makes it actually feel more slippery. I love the case as i had the same for my S4 but it is more slippery. I picked up the Spigen Slim Armor case in the metal color.
I have a bumper case, just the frame around the phone. My phone already fell out from the pocket of my pants, when I was changing (frankly I thought I had the phone in my jacket, otherwise would be more careful) onto the wooden floor from about 4 feet and I think I would have already some type of damage, if it wasn't for the bumper case. I like my phone very much, therefore having it in pristine condition is more important than anything else.
Something like this:

This is going to sound odd, but in order to get a flawless application of your screen protector . . . do it in the bathroom. I always run the shower as hot as it gets for a few minutes prior to trying to apply the screen protector to let the steam pull most of the dust particles out of the air. I also line up the screen protector prior to removing the backing and tape one side so that it functions like a hinge. This way once the backing is removed you do not have to worry about lining up the protector and it basically applies itself from the taped side.

Question might be lame but just to make sure - Can tempered glass be removed if needed or once is applied/glued thats it ?
It will just lift up. No residue left really. Think of it as more sticky and does not bond like a glue. Until you crank one and have to remove it... It's kinda hard to describe. But it comes up as easy as it is to put down
Ordered it. Should be here soon. Do I still need a screen protector with it do you think?

just want to ask something about tempered screen protector. i just bought the spigen glass tr screen protector and had applied it successfully on my note 3 just having one little lint underneath but i dont care too much about it as it cant be seen when the screen is on. but i want to ask is tempered glass has any side effect to my screen ? such as reduce the screen sensitivity as i heard from someone that using tempered glass has negative effect. is it true ?
I haven't noticed any sensitivity issues. To be fair, I put the protector on only a few days after I purchased the phone, but I honestly never noticed any ill effects after installation.
On my S4 or this phone I've never had sensitivity issue with either phone. The Spen works flawlessly with THE MIME Ghost Glass (is only 32mm thick as to Spigens tr glass which is .40mm thick)
Well my case turned up and I love it. Such a well made product.

It really is. It's like I'm running the phone naked. The only time I'm reminded of it is when I go caseless.
Really? I have this and am not impressed at all. Yes it feels nice. Yes it installed very easily with no bubbles. What bothers me is the fit and without radii edges. It's very visible white edges. It's not even close to the edge of the glass and it doesn't cover the camera, LED, and light sensors. Replacements are on the way...
Yes maybe you got a bad batch. But I don't have any problems with rough edges. Mine doesn't fit all the way to edge but very very close but I like that it's like this because of my tpu case I didn't want it to rub up against it to lift it allowing dust in between the protector.
Which could be how they made it in the first place who knows!
Also yes the camera led and speaker aren't covered but it's so close to it that I don't see this area being scratched unless you are running without a case.

Yep, probably the very reason it doesn't fit the screen well.
I'm running a Spigen Slim Armor case, The cases bezel around the screen just covers the plastic edge of the phone, not the glass, which I like very much. I'm not a fan when a case covers glass because it can interfere with trying to select certain things on the screen. So it is more apparent when a screen protector doesn't quite go to the edge of the glass. The white edges and die cut around the camera, LED, and sensors make it that much worse too, unfortunately.
See mine was cut longer on the sides and the bottom so the only gap I have is the top part where they intentionally left uncovered.
Looks to me that there different batches with some weird cuts. You said you getting a replacement from them? Or did you mean you are ordering from a different company?

Been using one for several days now and so far, couldn't be happier. I did a wet install and let it dry for about 10 hours before I used the phone. I don't think 10 hours in necessary, but I was just making sure. After drying, I put my Seidio Active case on the phone and everything is working great. Very clear, full fit, no lifting, no odd effects (rainbow, dis colorization, etc...). The cut outs are perfect and the feel is good. It's not glass, but it's very smooth. If it continues to work as well as it is now, I will not use glass. Just take your time and get it right. That's why I did a wet install, because it always seems to work so much better.
I've tried a couple of different tempered glass screen protectors and so far, they have all come up short one way or another. the best one so far was the Coral brand, it it only sticks to the side of the screen and doesn't work well with the cases I have tried.
Do you get any "orange peel" effect with this one? I have had it on my Wish List for a couple of weeks, because I got the Skinomi TechSkin HD Clear and while it fits perfectly and has full coverage, there is a relatively significant orange peel effect if viewed at the right angle. What I mean is there is a like a texture to the reflection. Turn the screen off, hold the phone at such an angle that you can see a light source in the reflection (such as a chandelier), and the reflection of the chandelier isn't "clear" - it's distorted because the screen protecter has this orange peel effect/texture look to it.

None that I have noticed.
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 applied the Zagg InvisibleShield on my brand new S7 yesterday. I couldn't be happier with it, did a dry install, some bubbles formed but disappeared within the next couple of hours. Now it's absolutely perfect! Highly recommended.

Is it rubbery or is it a hard plastic?

It's rubbery more than hard. It's not unpleasant and it doesn't attract fingerprints easily.

Spigen Curved Crystal HD is not rubbery.
Guys,
I recommend the I croo ones on Amazon. They are the self healing ones and go edge to edge.

Darn. I had one on the back of my iPhone 4S and it didn't feel all that great and got lots of little indentations and scratches on it. But it was very grippy but I don't think that's a good property to have on a screen protector.

It's like those self healing ones. You can see some indentations in certain lighting but for the most part it's crystal clear

I think the ones made for the back of a phone are meant to be more grippy, to make holding the phone more comfortable. I wouldn't say that the Zagg front protector for the S7 is grippy, but that's down to personal preference really.

Got any pics of your install? And the shilled reviews aren't really helping instill any confidence

I would say more rubbery than hard, but very smooth.

No I don't. However, there is another reviewer on this forum that did have an install. I think the post title was "ocd approved."

+1 on the i-croo screen protector. Application was easy, it's edge to edge without halo effect/peeling/bubbles. It's smooth and not rubbery, fingerprint resistant, clear, no orange peel effect.
I seriously have a difficult time seeing the screen protector when I look for it--it's that well fitting.
Does the i-croo work well with cases?
