I'm looking around and can only find ones for the Z2 tablet.
Has anyone found one online that they are happy with, or do they even exist? After owning the tablet for a year and a half I was finding the film that's already on there too scratched up and difficult to keep clean so I pulled it off finally. Felt good. Now if I can find a tempered glass protector like the one I'm using on my phone I'd be happy.
I have one from Amazon and i'm happy with it. It's a little bit smaler, but it's OK
@chaot88 : can you provide the link ? i also interested in buying Tempered glass for Tablet Z , but i couldn't find the T.H for XTZ :/
You've obviously misunderstood me. I bought a tablet Z2 Tempered Glass, as both devices are almost as large. The Tempered Glass is only slightly smaller, but with a slim case you see it no more

If you don't mind, would you be able to measure the size of the glass? I'm wondering how much difference there is in size between the z2 and original Z tablets.
You can look at the sonymobile Website under products/tablets The glass has the size for z2 tablet

can you post a photo? I want to see how big the gap is.. :highfive:
I've ordered one for the Z2 off of ebay. I'll post some pictures on here once it arrives in case anyone is still wondering if this will fit with the Z tablet.
@tinodevoe I just put on the XTZ2 tempered glass on my XTZ and it looks good enough for me. Totally unnoticeable unless you are trying to look for the gaps. Only thing I'd say is bad is the cut out for the camera is off but not big deal. I prefer my camera covered by glass protector when possible anyways so it won't scratch in front of the lens making the image come out funny. Check out pictures I've attached.
http://www.amazon.com/Tempered-Prot...et+glass&pebp=1421820700710&peasin=B00PHD0D4I
I would notice the cut-out for the camera, and I think it would bother me. The gap on the edge of the screen looks quite 'large'
Just got the tempered glass just now . Installed it and it looks really nice ! .. in my opininon , the camera hole and the gap really doesn't interrupt my view . Sure it is not 100% great .. but it is the perfect alternative way to get Tempered glass for Xperia tablet Z
here i attach some images with and without casing >;

:good: I ordered this one and have it on my Tablet Z as pictured above and below, fits great even though its for the Z2 Tablet..Installation was a breeze...
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00QY9LOKG?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
The camera hole does not line up but I barely notice, and if you have a case its not noticeable at all ..
Trust me get a tempered glass screen, you won't regret it...
I also recommend this case as well, it looks great and all the ports are open for easy access...
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B4D0COG?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
Its so much easier keeping the screen clean as well, no more greasy film or streaks , response time is excellent as well, no noticeable lag of any kind....
That hole is not for camera, it`s for the light sensor. The Z4 tablet has its light sensor about the same place as Z. Only the Z4 is smaller.
I stand corrected..
I was not paying attention to what I was typing....
After several months with this screen protector I am still quite pleased....no scratches of any kind thus far....

thats a screen protector for the regular xperia z. its misleading in the title as the name of the glass is ultra glass. lol i know armorz is supposed to be coming out with one but they havent replenished stock yet. the armorz one is a bit pricey though. you could also find plenty of them on ebay for pretty cheap. i had planned on getting a tempered glass screen protector, but purchased a warranty instead.
I have the glass-m.
It's really good, easily the best protector I"ve used for the Ultra (the gearmaxx being the worst, then another plastic one which was much better).
Very few fingerprints, hardly ever need to clean it...
Looks very nice. Feels great.
At first it felt like I lost some screen sensitivity, but now I'm not so sure...
I too own a Glass-M on my S4, great screen protector! Feels a thousand times better then the shatterproof sheet. (Even a generic plastic screen protector i have on the ZU is better anyway)
My choice, for Ultra:-
(1) Armorz Stealth Extreme R Tempered Glass:
Pros - round edges
Cons - 0.4mm thickness
(2) SGP GLAS.t Slim Tempered Glass:
Pros - 0.26mm thickness
Cons - sharp edges / not available yet
I am tempted to go for the Glass-M one for $31.50.
http://theglass-m.com/collections/f...-glass-screen-protector-for-sony-xperia-ultra
I still have the easy peel-off screen film on my Z Ultra....do I simply peel them off then apply the Glass-M ?
What is the shatterproof cover I hear people talking about ?
Thanks guys

That shatter proof cover is the original screen protector and it's a pain in the ass to remove.

I bought my on ebay from china it have not got it yet. Maybe I will get it today. It has been at least 15 days.
I bought a tempered glass protector off eBay (from China) as well. It arrived cracked. I contacted the seller, and they sent me a replacement. It took 17 days to arrive, and when I opened the package, it too was cracked! I'm now going to try my luck with the the Glass-M. I'm dying to use a pen/pencil on this thing but wont until I put a tempered glass screen protector on...
I'm a little irritated by how quickly Note 3 accessories became available - including tempered glass protectors. Seems like most of the big names (spigen?) wont be making tempered glass for the ZU....
do you need to remove the standard shatterproof film on the ultra to apply this glass-m protector? In some cases, Sony voids warranty upon removal of this layer.
Has anyone added the glass-m on top of the layer, and does it affect touch sensitivity? certain screen protectors make the screen go crazy, registering random touches.
very interested in the glass-m, but would like to clear up some quesitons first

Unless you remove it, it's applying a tempered glass protector on top of a plastic glass reinforced protector. So you can imagine how the touch would like that combo...
As stated. Removing the shatterproof protection is a pain. But it is totally worth it. I've never had this level of protection and comfort at the same time on any mobile device before.
Tapatalked from my Sony Xperia Z Ultra
Touch is not affected by the tempered glass. Using it with a pencil or any metal object registers as if nothing is on top of the screen. I'll post the photo of the brand of my tempered glass.as I forgot already.

Hopefully that will not happen to me.
Just ordered the Glass-M from here http://theglass-m.com/collections/f...-glass-screen-protector-for-sony-xperia-ultra
Hopefully all goes well and I will receive my order in pristine condition. I need this cause I just realize that there is a deep scratch on the generic screen protector that I bought from the telco.
Finally got my Glass-M. the size is smaller than the screen so its not difficult to align with your device. There is a problem with it though, the edges of the glass-m doesnt seem to stick to the device properly. I have it under a hardbound book right now in hopes of make it stick properly.
did you put it on top of your stock screen protector? or took it out?

Removed it. Can't stand it not sticking properly and also making the device less sensitive especially on fps games. I originally placed it on top of the ASF. Now I'm just waiting for my screen to be scratched then I'll remove the ASF to finally touch the glass o this phone.

Sounds like glass4m does not have together...
I ordered the front protector for my Z Ultra, they sent me the back. Almost 3 months have passed and they have replied once to my mails but have not corrected the issue.
Watch out, having an issue after the purchase may just leave you in the cold.
S17 bucks down the drain...
I have applied a tempered glass screen protector on my Xperia Z Ultra.... perhaps the one I'm using is not of a good quality, it still attracts fingerprints and I find the responsiveness of the touchscreen has become worse, and the screen seems to become more reflective to sunlight than before... A bit regretful for putting this on as I don't feel much improvements over the previous plastic screen protector I was using...
sorry for you dude...please tell us the brand..so that we wont buy it..thanks for the heads up
Wow that sucks I just ordered mine yesterday. Both front and back I hope I don't regret it.

I just ordered one off eBay for the back. I spent money on the front and got the Armorz one. pricey but fits perfectly. attracts smudges to a degree but wipes clean with ease. hopefully the eBay back one I ordered doesn't suck. lol

Same as when I placed one on my ZXU. The brand I bought was Glas.m. It was a total waste of money to tell you the truth. The idea is nice but it just made the XZU screen loose sensitivity. Very noticeable in drawing apps and fps games. I have since removed the front Glas.m and used a regular matte screen protector. I still used the back Glas.m though protector though.

Mine is a Glass.M too ... not impressed at all ...
I got the Glass.M too, and I think it's a verry good protector.
Love the touch sensitivy, no loss on touchscreen at all, there are so much less fingerprints.
However, I think about removing the back one. It make my phone slide on every surfaces. If it's not perfectly horizontal it'll will slide slowy and fall ^^
My phone never fall at all, but since I applied this on the back it falls 4 times
Plus : Having glass.m on the both sides prevents me to use DK30
so I got the glass back piece in and it actually went on with no problems and fits rather well. now what surprised me was as I was applying it, the name brand Armorz front glass got all scuffed up. I was under the impression that it was 9H, yet simple sliding around on regular plastic topped computer desk would scratch it like crazy. I guess it can take a drill bit and razor blades but is not match for dust particles. lol *whomp whomp*

ARMORZ Stealth Extreme R Tempered Glass
Hi guys,
I applied ARMORZ tempered glass over the peeled LCD (yes, I did remove the protection layers). The Xperia Z Ultra, differs from the Z1 by a thin layer of tempered glass between the LCD and the plastic shatter-proof layer. The best way to remove both layers is to apply a lot of heat to the screen and use a very sharp tool like a snap-off cutter (I used the blade alone).
The difference with this astonish hi quality screen protector is huge! Whole new experience!
Hope it help to decide others to encourage and remove the original screen protector.
Regards
Hadn't seen a thread yet for glass screen protectors, but I wanted to share the one I bought on Amazon and received today. I think it looks great. It has a nice feel and lays down on all of the edges. There is an ever so slight gap to the edge of the phone, but I would assume that that would help if you wanted to rock a case. I'm going naked for now, but I have ordered a black matte slickwrap that I'm excited to apply. I will definitely start a thread as soon as that comes in. Here's the link to the screen protector. I almost got the DMax Armor one, but I went with the KUGI one because the picture only had a cutout for the front facing camera. Turns out the cutout is larger than the picture, but the cutout is uniform and I like it just fine.
http://www.amazon.com/ONETOUCH-prot...sr=1-3&keywords=idol+3+glass+screen+protector
Looks good. I have one coming from ebay. We shall see how that looks.
I got mine amazon and it looks fine.
Any issues installing the glass protector? Is it better to take off the case or can it be applied with it on? Some posts about glass protectors ended up in the thread about what case people are using. FYI.
I purchased the Nillkin tempered glass screen protector from here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/161735243879?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
If you look at the pictures for the screen protector you will see that the slot cut out at top does NOT line up with the camera......is that normal? Look at the last pic here: http://www.aliexpress.com/item-img/...tive-film-for-Alcatel-Idol-3/32371525568.html
I applied it and it seems to work fine...just thought it was strange the cutout didn't line up. *shrug*
The cutout is for the proximity sensor only. I like the idea of added protection to the camera. How are your pictures after the install?

Could anyone with one of the tempered glass protectors let us know how they are? Does it change the quality of the display in any way? Are the whites still as white? Is there more friction when swiping your finger on the screen?
Some reviews have suggested that there's a loss of response with these protectors in place. Anyone seeing that?

I haven't noticed any of those issues with the one I have. I was worried that it would hinder the image quality of the phone but I haven't observed that to be the case. I also don't notice any latency issues with it on. Also, I feel like it does a better job of resisting finger prints than the original screen. Over-all, I'm very happy I purchased one.
I felt like the screen was brighter and also like how resistant it is to fingerprints. It seemed to be to be more responsive to taps, swipes and drags. It was my first tempered glass screen protector and I promptly went out and ordered some for my other devices.

Thanks!! I bought this one too and installed it using these instructions. It looks just like lordlittlebrooks's first post photos, it fits nicely although I wish it was flush with the whole screen. But hey, it shipped fast and the price was right.
David C.
Given that the screen is already raised up a bit by design, I'd be concerned that the thickness of the glass protector would make it stick up even more, and give an abrupt edge to it.
Never had a problem w/ the hard plastic/film ones; just expect to have to throw away and replace them every few months.

I Told you man, Donot buy from anywhere else other than the official website. In Amazon, more than half of these trink glasses are fake. I Know because a friend of mine tried for his Redmi Note 4X from Amazon. The Product was so fake that you can tell from the packaging itself. Then he came to know about the Official site and bought again and he was pretty much satisfied with the quality. See youtube for reviews of the trink glass bought from the official store. I Myself will try it out once the matte screen guard that came with the phone is worn out by scratches.
So did anybody find a good one for it?

I have purchased front and back glass from trinkshop official website. The quality is ok. But the main downside is that the front glass does not cover the entire landscape and just like any other tempered glass available anywhere it leaves the edges and top sensors uncovered. It's definitely risky to not apply a back case, but both side glass films provide a fantastic look

I come from using an oneplus x for 2 years with the exact same problem regarding tempered glasses. The reason there is no tempered glass with the perfect fit for these round edged phones is because manufacturers don't intend for people to use one on their phones nowadays. The last six months with my oneplus x I was using the phone with a rigid case and no tempered glass or screen protectors and it still is good with no scratches even after a few screen facing falls. I think the best setup for Z2 plus is the same approach but incase you want some scratch resistance use scratch guard films instead of tempered glasses. The only case i found online that covers the Z2 Plus' screen by giving a little rubber covering on the screen corners (like the spigen ones) is the generic kick stand two-part case. Those cases also give a good look without the kickstand part (picture attached below).
Finally got perfect tempered glass for lenovo z2 plus

Beware. These full coverage tempered glasses look and for good but provide no screen protection except for direct scratch resistance. These are not full glue ones. Only the coloured parts have glue and on minor impact these glasses come of. Telling from RN4 experience with multiple friends ..
True protection from tempered glass comes from the ones which are glued thoroughly to the screen.
Glazedinc.com makes such full screen edge to edge full glue screen guards and their Redmi note 4 screen guard is quite popular - probably the best in India but I didn't find any product for Z2 Plus on their website. Maybe people can request them. I already did

Has anyone found a good tempered glass screen protector for the XA2 Ultra? I'll have my phone by Wednesday next week and want to make sure I get a good quality protector for the screen. Thanks in advance!

Did you find one yet? Im looking too.
I'll probably be looking for one, too. I'd prefer to go IntelliArmor or SuperShieldz, but nothing yet. Hi, @AngryManMLS! Good to see a familiar user. I think I liked your old avatar, but I like Yes' logo, too!

Actually the old avatar (New England Revolution) is within the current one.
I do see SuperShieldz has one on eBay and Amazon for the XA2 Ultra.

https://www.amazon.com/Supershieldz...923528&sr=8-1&keywords=xa2+ultra+supershieldz
Sadly it has black on the top and bottom which hides the nice blue color of my XA2 Ultra. Hopefully they will do a clear one soon.

Oh, cool! Huh, I looked on SuperShieldz's website directly and at first I thought I found them but then I noticed it was for the XA1. I wonder if there's a chance it's fake - maybe someone repackaged a different brand into their packaging? Seems strange that it can be found there but not Amazon or from the manufacturer directly.
Hopefully within a short period of time they'll have a clear one for you.

Supershieldz has it listed on their site now. Amazon now says they are being shipped by Supershieldz themselves as well so that assures to me it's the real deal on Amazon.

Looking at other Sony devices it doesn't appear that Supershieldz has a clear one for those. I suspect the XA2 Ultra will be the same in those regards sadly. Hopefully Intelliarmor does a clear one.

Well, that's good, thanks for the heads up! Yeah, hopefully, Intelliarmor will. I'll probably go ahead and order one or two of these. I have the black phone.
Edit: Ordered the Supershieldz, should receive it next week.
You don't need tempered glass on your phone, gorilla glass is much more stronger than any tempered glass. If you drop your phone with a tempered glass on and the tempered glass shatters, that doesn't mean gorrila glass would break without the screen protector. s8 breaks easily on the corners and sure it has gorrila glass 5 wich is 2x stronger than the 4 but the corners are curved a lot wich results in a less surface for the force to spread so all the force is stuck at that corner resulting in a crack.
xa2 and xa2 ultra don't have those really curved edges so you should be fine.
Btw if you really want one, get a curved tempered glass otherwise it won't spread all the way over the glass or it will not stick at the sides resulting in less visibility at those sides (experiences)
I am seeing a few more glass protectors on amazon but most have terrible ratings. Can anyone give a review of their experience with temp. Glass on this device?
Sidenote: Dave thanks for the info!

I haven't put my Supershieldz yet on because I was waiting to get a case, and I had accidentally ordered a case for the non-Ultra XA2. Was able to return it but I'm waiting until I have $25 more I want to buy from Amazon before ordering the right cheap case.
I read in a couple of places that some of the glass protectors have only rim of adhesive securing the temp. glass to the phone. This has stopped my quest so far.
Yesterday I picked up a "Kristall Nano protector" this is one of those liquid protectors claiming a "Hardness 9 H". One of the employees at conrad showed me that hes using this currently. The screen felt like glass and looked perfect. 100% clarity w. No rainbow effect etc. It doesnt replace the strength of a glass protector but for now will help prevent scratches.
I had another idea for those feeling adventurous... why not use this nano stuff as the adhesive for the other protectors.
I assume that this will increase the protection level and fill the airgaps.

My experience with ultra screen protectors
First of all, let me say that the assumption that the gorilla glass itself is scratch resistant is just not true in reality, no matter what Sony claims. From my first tablet z all the way to this new xa2 ultra, all of my Sony phones collected visible scratches without a screen protector. Just search YouTube to see for yourself how easily the screen of xa2 ultra gets scratched by simple contact with keys and coins.
When I got my ultra XA two years ago I searched for a good screen protector and the best I could find was a tempered glass which left about 2 mm unprotected on each side of the screen. That's where the curvature of the LCD glass on XA ultra starts. Also I found a "curved" screen protector for XA which was really a piece of hardened plastic (not tempered glass) bent on the sides and it only had adhesive around the edges. So despite the fact that it covered the whole LCD, because there was no adhesive under The Protector, there was an air gap everywhere between the protector and the glass which made the clarity quite low.
The situation for xa2 ultra is even worse because the actual curvature of the LCD starts about one centimeter from the edges. So no flat protector including the ones with the 2 millimeter gap on the sides will properly adhere to the glass. I tried one that I ordered on eBay and as you can see in the picture there are major strips of air gaps on both sides. I haven't tried any curved protectors yet so it would be nice if someone who has used them comments here. I have ordered film screen protectors which I should receive soon. And because they're not rigid I'm hoping they will naturally stick to the sides of the screen. I will post pictures here once I receive them.
Update: I received the film screen protectors. The situation is similar to the tempered glass, albeit no as bad: it still leaves about 2 mm unprotected on each side, and the air gaps are still there but they are only about 2mm in width.
Summary: I am yet to find a proper full LCD protector for this phone.

No gap
No bubbles
Seems ok against dirty...

Actually a small update. I've found out that I've actually lost it! I don't know when I don't know how and why.
Now I've got a ****ty tiny plastic protector. Couldn't find anything reliable.

Hello All!
Did anyone find good solution for screen protection:
- cover the whole LCD
- good contact with screen (no air)
- reliable enough
?
