Best screen protector for Note 3? - Galaxy Note 3 Accessories

Most of the screen protecors I have used have been garbage. I hate the peel ones becauase some small piece of dust always seems to get trapped under them. The ones where you use water to stick them are pretty cool, but I haven't found any that are amazing. What I'm looking for is a screen protector that isn't a fingerprint magnent, but also one that is easy to install. Any suggestions?

Have you tried note 3 tempered glass screen protector? They are amazing and easy to apply.

I have a tempered glass screen that I haven't put on yet. They sound good, but I'm worried about two things: the screen being a fingerprint and smudge magnet and if a case would be able to go over the phone with a tempered glass screen.

I have one that I haven't used yet because I am worried about a few things:
Will it attract fingerprints and smudges and will a case be able to fit the phone with that particular screen protector?

I can highly recommend the Nillkin 9H tempered screen protector. It costs around ₹800 here in my country (so should be around 12-13 USD/10 EURO) and it is an extreme value for money product. I really love mine.
Finger print magnet? I don't know! All the hard type screen protectors catch finger prints and smudges, I think, but I won't call it to the extent of being a magnet. With any tempered screen protector one thing a person should do, clean it whenever you get a chance.

If you're truly worried about fingerprints you may want to consider buying an oleophobic coating kit. It's a liquid/gel based coating that is fingerprint resistant. It's already applied to phones in the factory by default, but it wears off.
Most cases have no problem with tempered glass screen protectors.
Spigen is really good. I think they also have a fingerprint resistant one.

Tempered Glass Screen Protector

What is the best (quality and cost) tempered glass screen protector for the G3? I previously had an M8 and bought my first ever tempered glass screen protector, Zagg Glass. It was fantastic, looked and felt like there was nothing there and the application process took 20 seconds. However, I'm sure there are other ones out there that are just as good quality wise but far less expensive. Thanks.
I use this one myself and like it a lot. Nice fit, ultra thin, rounded edges, crystal clear and a 9 hardness. Very satisfied with this one.
Orzly
Just perfect
I use one by Pthink. 9H hardness, very clear, and very very smooth coating which does not leave fingerprints or oil! very satisfied with this purchase and was around $12 on amazon. I prefer this one due to the cutouts up top.
Can you please use the long thread already dedicated to this tooic instead of making a New one please...
Please search before making new threads

I recommend Bepak H+ have used it on my G3 and HTC M8
My nano.tr was great for about 3 days. Now its coming up in 2 places
I refuse to buy another Spigen Nano t.r after 5 of them with countless issues. Ive had them stop sticking for no reason, crack without ever dropping my phone and the list goes on.
I bought a Mime ghost glass and its a huge improvement. It also only cost 28 with free shipping from their website. Great screen protector especially compared to Spigen.

Any chance you could post a pic, I ordered one and am anxious to see what it looks like exactly.
I use zagg, and it's amazing. I also have the circle wireless case, and the front flap was not affected in any way.
I just got my pThink screen protector in today. It is a perfect fit. Couldn't be happier with the quality and price. I definitely recommend compared to the ones with the big cutout up top...this just has one for the speaker grill and ambient light sensors.
are there any tempered glass screen protector that does not leave any fingerprint behind?

If there were I would assume the same layer/technique would be applied on the original Gorilla Glass screen as well.
Some do claim they repel finger prints, that's usually just marketing BS though

I've been using a Tech Armor glass screen saver for the last few days and it shows fewer fingerprints than the stock screen. It feels smoother than the regular screen which may have something to do with it. It still gets prints, just not as many and they seem to wipe off easier. Very please with it for $10.

The cutout is for the speaker grill and the proximity sensor etc. It does not have an opening for the front facing camera. I've had it for a few days now and LOVE it. The beveled edge is super smooth on the outside edge and the cutout.

I bought the one carried in the VZW stores and it really cut down on the fingerprint / smudges - I could really tell the difference. But that protector was .4mm thickness and touch sensitivity became an issue for me. So I bought the .2mm iCarez protector. The thickness was just right, but the oleophobic properties are not as good as the VZW protector.
As always, YMMV.
Based on the reviews in this thread I ordered the pThink protector (Free Prime 2-Day shipping FTMFW).
I can't say enough good stuff about this screen protector. It is available on Amazon for around $11(with free prime shipping if you have it). There are a variety of good tempered glass screen protectors. Most of them simply notch out the top near where the speaker, light sensor and proximity sensor are located. This one has a perfectly aligned oval shaped cutout giving it a much more OEM looking appearance. Like most, the edges are pleasantly rounded.
The package is straight forward, complete with requisite chinglish on the outside. The package is generic, saying it includes a 'homer(sic) button' cover. Which doesn't make sense, and sure enough it doesn't include. Opening it up, you see all of the included materials. Nothing outstanding here other than the actual instructions seem to be in normal English! I didn't look closely but I didn't see any chinglish.
Installation is a breeze but good prep ensures success. I cleaned the screen extensively to remove all traces of oil and dust. Since I am a chemist I used chloroform to degrease the screen. I also used it to degrease my fingers (not something I recommend but it works). Once the screen was clean, I applied the tempered glass screen protector by VERY VERY VERY gently lowering it by its sides. I can't stress the very gently enough. If you do it gentle enough it will rest just above the surface and you can use your fingernail to maneuver the screen protector into perfect position. Then just touch down on the screen and watch the "bubble" of bonding spread across the screen, it just drives the air out. The rigidity of the screen protector results in a perfect bubble-free finish. I couldn't believe how easy it was. Once the screen protector was on, I wiped it down with the included microfiber cloth.
Initial impressions? Damn! It's truly crystal clear, I can't seem to find any visual distortion. Touch feels slightly changed due to the oleophobic surface but its clearly glass and feels like a touchscreen. There is ZERO effect on the touchscreen performance. Also, the oleophobic surface DRAMATICALLY reduces the amount of smudges, it doesn't prevent them but its a huge reduction. I have a few pics of the package before installation. Once I cleaned the screen, I lost my camera (my phone is the camera so I couldn't use it). The edges of the screen protector are within fractions of a mm of the display edges. This is necessary to make installation a little easier and to prevent bubbles. I truly could NOT be happier!
I'm really happy with a Bepak one. Rounded edges, smooth, and feels really great to touch. No scratches at all till now with some rough usage.
Although reading the reviews about the pThink one, I'm going to give that a try when something happens to the current Bepak one.

Best Glass Screen Protector on Ebay?

Any particular tempered glass screen protector on ebay better than another? Thanks
I had skinomi tempered glass, it was awesome, very good against fingerprints
Thanks. Was it easy to apply without bubbles?
Every glass screen protector is easy to apply without bubbles. I've tried 5 different ones.
Carefully place it down, align it with something, i used a small screwdriver, then just push it down in the middle with your finger.
The only tricky part is to clean your screen good before applying. Any so small dust particle will be seen if not removed.

I have the spigen 9H tempered glass protector and it's awesome, no finger-steps, no scratches, zero bubbles, ultra resistant and it's work great ( no lag ) with the note's pen! You have lots of review at youtube.
Only have a negative point, the price, but it's ok, it's only one time you buy them
I've used 2 tech armor glass protectors on different phones, both worked perfectly.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/111225255839?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2648&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
Been using one of these for about ten months. The anti finger print was still good. There were some tiny scratches, but only seen at the right angle and the right lightning (but only when the screen was turned off !)
But i work in a forging factory, so that was expected, because of the steel dust. And i use my phone 24/7.
I even dropped it two times face down from my hand while standing. There was just a dent on the plastic rim of the phone.
So in my experience a very very good protector for a small price. And you get all you need for the installation, even a nice home button sticker.
I bought two more, just for the sake of it.
Nillkin H tempered glass, or if you want 2.5D rounded edges glass like the note 4 then Nillkin H+
I'm using the normal H (not 2.5D) and it's amazing. It actually feels better than original glass, very soft touch + no scratches so far.
I'm recommending.

Which is the best glass screen protector. Any experience with Anoke's?

Over a year has passed since the Note PRO came out. Which is the best screen protector as of today? Has any of you used the Anoke Tempered Glass Screen Protectors 9h hardness, 2.5d Rounded Edges, 0.3mm Thickness? It seems to have received very good overall reviews.
I am still using a plastic-like screen protector from Samsung. I got it as a gift from an electronics store. The problem with it is that it is a finger print magnet. Also, as I use the device as a phone, it is easy to see lots of saliva droplets as I talk to the screen sometimes.

I used a tempered glass that i bought from aliexpress for 4.4 USD
It is good but finger prints are there too
I applied it for protection only
There are no problems with the spen as far as i know
I was going to post the link but the item is already removed
Still perfectly satisfied with my Mime tempered glass screen protector. I have no significant issue with pen use. The only issue is the gap around the bezel but I don't care one iota about that.

should i remove the screen protector?

I find that the (plastic) screen guard that's provided with this phone is a major smudge magnet. I'm thinking of removing it. I'd like any feedback from anyone who has already taken it off.
Cheers.
UPDATE: I went ahead and got 9H Glass cover. 2-pack for $8 on Amazon. Immensely better than the plastic this phone ships with. I highly recommend doing this, even if you don't personally see a problem with the plastic cover. I promise once you see the difference you'll agree it was worth it.
So happy I posted this question.
Thank you all for your responses!
There doesn't seem to be an oleophobic coating on the display because they expect you to keep the screen protector on. So taking it off might result in even more smudges. Personally, I didn't find the screen protector that came pre-installed to be a smudge magnet. I actually found that it reduced them. I'm not saying the protector necessarily has an oleophobic coating, but that I didn't have a problem with smudges on it. The only reason why I took mine off was because there was some black dust underneath the screen protector and I couldn't get it back on without more dust appearing under it. So I just removed it completely. You might have to buy another screen protector of your choice that will better repel smudges to your satisfaction.
I've taken mine off because I scratched mine with a paper towel (like wtf?) but now I wish I haven't, because things stick to the screen easier. So unless you have an alternate screen protector ready, I'd recommend not.

Thanks. This is information I didn't have. I have a couple of other devices with no plastic cover; I don't have the smudge issue with them. But if there's no coating on the h5, then it's probably best to keep it on.
Buy a tempered glass protection, that's cheap and protect very well the screen (ebay, amazon, aliexpress bangood, etc....) keywords : phone name + "tempered glass" or "9h"

Plastic is not the same feel as glass on the fingers (don't know how to explain it better in english), and it scratch must faster.

Bought a generic 9H on eBay for 1€
I also have a transparent silicone case for the same price
I also bought the Nillkin 9H, but the other is still good so....
I took my plastic screen protector off the moment I got my tempered glass screen protector. Couldn't really remember how the original one felt since I only had for a very short period of time. That said, I recommend taking screen protector off for something better.
The stock screen protector is trash, all it does is act as a fingerprint magnet.
I did go to a Nillkin 9H. Wow - 90% reduction in smudges, and it is more sensitive than the stock plastic. Dropped the phone a few times, no issues. I do have an iPacky thin case, and it shows the abuse of daily use, but survives fine. It is also very thin. The thick cases defeat the whole purpose of our slim beauty.
I found that replacing the factory plastic screen protector with a high quality glass screen protector makes it a little better in terms of less fingerprint smudges and protection.

i took it off and you get some scratches but not allot. if you look at the jerryrigs video he tested it and its as strong as gorilla glas. So you can take it off. i took mine off because there was a huge scratch in my screen protector and i could not live with that.

I would wait to get a tempered glass, just to prevent any scratches on the LCD

I have literally never used any screen protector and have never had issues. However, YMMV. I immediately took off the screen protector that came with it. I did buy a nice cheap protective case from Amazon prime. It has enough lip to protect the screen and I always make sure not to put my phone in the same pocket as my keys or sharp items.
using honor 5x without screen protector since months, no scratch at all.
bt the back side got a couple of scratches from my bike keys

Question UV glass screen protectors and am I best taking Samsung's screen protector off?

Hi, I am getting the S23 ultra soon and was wondering, am I best leaving Samsung's film screen protector on, or will this not really offer much protection?
Am I best taking this off and putting my own?
I was looking at these UV glass ones, which I don't really have experience with, they are all a little on the dear side in comparison to the glass ones that are ready to stick.
I tend to prefer glass as it feels like more protection and touch / fingerprint still works fine and also tends not to suffer air bubbles as much.
Regards
James
You dont get a screen protector on it when it arrives
After years of using the UV product you mentioned (whitestone dome) I settled on the practical plastic films. These are very cheap, you can get 2 or 3 at just $10, they avoid scratching mainly and the feel is not as good BUT cleaning up the screen after removing the protective UV glass is a nightmare, replacements cost $40 to $60 in case it breaks or dents. The plastic film doesn't really dent and it's much thinner and as far as my experience goes most cases are compatible with the plastic one, in contrast with the UV glass. Furthermore, the installation of the glass is not "for everyone", I am used to do precision work with my hands and the installation process is not something I would recommend to an inexperienced person: some glue is going to get outside while curing the screen with the UV lamp and it can infiltrate in your mic holes or in the small gap between the display and the frame. Last but not least, if you want to use the phone without a case with the glass you get a noticeable step on all 4 sides which is very uncomfortable especially if you use gestures. If you want to give it a try, is something you can live with and it has for sure benefits as far as feeling and protection. On the other hand, all the above issues remain. Sorry for the bad grammar and punctuation, I'm in a hurry. I hope my comment helps you decide for the best!

I swear by these whitestone dome protectors. The newest versions (I have one on my S23U) come with stickers to seal the buttons and edges when you install so you don't get any glue in the buttons.
If one watches the video, the installation process is relatively fool proof. I've not yet had a bad installation and the glass has saved my phone more than once.
Fingerprint sensor sensitivity is reduced somewhat but still functions perfectly.
IMHO, these are far and away the best protectors and I'd not use any other.
Getting on my high horse here to ***** about the hypocrisy around "saving the planet" by not providing a screen protector....it's all virtues signaling and real cheap ass practice.
Look what resulted from buying a screen protector from Scamazon (add gas burned, electricity, etc ) to see the "savings"

I completely agree that as far as protection Whitestone Dome is the best you can get - but that was not in question.
I also agree that the procedure is pretty straightforward but you would be amazed knowing how MOST people can screw up easy things. Not everyone has decent manuality: people actually pay to get cheap screen protectors installed by some "specialized tecnician". I am someone who fixes its stuff to the point of soldering components, just for curiosity and because I enjoy it, but most people don't want to deal even with screen protectors

I'm also thinking if I want to have the TMax UV Dome installed on my S23 Plus but I'm reading mixed reactions with using UV Dome. I won't install it myself so that's out of the question. But that screen protector also covers the front camera which sucks and I don't know how good/bad it is. I know it's from China but so is Whitedome.
Some experienced users told me to use a TPU film instead, like the ArmorSuit wet install film. The display of the S23 is very good and it just needs a simple TPU screen protector to protect it from unavoidable scratches. Is the difference in feeling between a TPU and tempered glass protector that significant? What else made you suggest using TPU instead of glass?

If using the plus, it has a flat screen and UV glass isn't necessarily needed. The UV glass really excels in the curved screen market where most of the glass screens only have glue in the corners or have other issue towards the edges. The liquid glue allowed for better flash adherence to the screen. For the plus I would just get highly rated 9h tempered glass.

I see. But how about the problem with the fingerprint sensor? I see a lot of people having issues when using a tempered glass protector with their Samsung fingerprint sensors. And that's why most of them say that a TPU film is enough.
Thanks for everyone's replies, after a lot of fear, hassle, and a bit of a loss of money I decided on a film protector which is working 100% fine.
Not sure if I just picked rubbish glass screen protectors, but they caused me big issues. Neither would work with fingerprint reader and because they were hard, my original case was lifting the sides of the protector a bit, meaning touch was less sensitive.
The first glass protector I tried was UV and when it came to taking this off, that was a little scary with this brand-new phone!
Trying to peel it back off was a hard job, was very stuck and was actually cracking as I was slowly lifting it off.
So now I have a different case that doesn't affect the protector and a film protector and all seems good now

Very little issues. Honestly it's works as well as the tpu film did I had on my s21 ultra. I wanted glass over the film on the ultra because of the pen. I wasn't sure how the pen tip would work with indenting the tpu film. I like the feel of the glass a lot better.
Before my S23U arrived I already had the case and glass ready. Didn't even power it on first, but went right away and applied this UV glass.
No issues with case causing glass come off. Glass needs to be perfectly aligned.
I did the same with my N9 that I traded in - not a scratch anywhere, although I dropped it few times and the UV glass saved it And I had N9 for full 4 years..
No issues when I took the glass off before shipping N9 back to Samsung.

After using these on my S21 Ultra, I purchased the same for my S23 Ultra and installed it today. Took about 15 minutes and extremely happy with the results. Feels like the original glass and most times don't even notice it's on. Additionally, customer support is top notch. Any issues and they send out replacements without issue. They're also available for installation support if needed.
The key is to watch the installation video and read the instructions multiple times and clean clean clean the phone.

I live in Asia and use Zeelot glass screen uv protector. Fingerprints work well and didn't have issue with my case
I used DomeGlass from Note9 (was little thick)>N20U and S22U and overall was good and happy but usually after few months under glass I saw "spider web" from glue on the edges.
Now in my S23U use Polish product like 3mk film and I am positive surprised good quality- thin, good sticks on the edges and low dirt from fingers similar, smooth spen use.
In this year don't miss to domeglass.
Nevertheless dome glass is good product but very expensive, installation with YT step by step is even easy

I'm thinking of original samsung screen protector, however there are very bad reviews from one that it is not easy to put it on, but ppl who manage to do it are very happy, no peel of on screen edge and good feeling with finger. What exactly 3mk model of film You use? Hammer maybe?

Yes, I think too about original samsung screen protector but I will buy it after receive points (about few days) thanks to buy phone in official site. Change my 3mk if I see issues but after 1 week (I know it's small period time) all is fine with case spigen tough armor.
However I don't sure that later, will not unstick because is full dimension from corner to corner with my case.
Easy wet application like similar film protectors.
Mine is 3mk Silver protection:

Antyuderzeniowa folia ochronna, wzmacnia ekran do 400%, powłoka samoregenerująca, łatwy montaż. Zabezpiecz Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. Oficjalny sklep producenta

This is local product of my country - Poland
i use domeglass and spigen ultra hyprid clear case, because of Red Color from phone.
Its fit perfect together.
