Anyone suggest a 9H glass screen protector? I have done some research and heard of Halos or foggy screens, covering proximity sensor and others saying if they go to the edges where the screen curves it doesnt lay completely flat causing it to catch on clothing.
Post your suggestions i just got my nexus 6, its a great upgrade over my lg g2.....
Verizon's tempered glass is the best, cut short so no halos

There is an active thread full of information for screen protectors for the N6 here http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/accessories/tempered-glass-screen-protectors-t2922645. No need for another.

I've just bought a used (UK) S2 on eBay, and am wondering whether I should bother with a screen protector for it. From other posts it seems that there are mixed opinions on the effectiveness of Gorilla glass for preventing scratches (particularly from sand), so I wondered how many people bother with a screen protector?
As per previous replies to the question .
Always as Gorilla Glass can get scratched and proof is in the scratched protector but not the screen .

Gorilla Glass...has got that real nice feel to it...hence no protectors...after 2 months of usages no scratches...just got a coloured frontal screen protector on today though...solely for the visual aspects...rather than protections but nice never the less.
I use protectors as sand will scratch G glass. I will give G glass credit though... It is a hell of a lot more scratch resistant than standard screen coatings.

I don't. I also don't like how the glass feels. But that's because I love my iPod's screen, just how it feels.

a layer of film never hurts. at least something gets in the way before it scratches the actual glass screen.
Definately add a screen protector!
I use PhantomSkinz

Lots of people have complained that after using a screen protector the phone is no longer responding to touches very well (this can be fixed with a root app though).
There is no real need at all for the screen to have a protector, it is the toughest glass around and there are plenty of videos on youtube of people taking hunting knifes and other sharp objects to their screen with no visible marks being left. Sure it will shatter if it lands on a sharp point but it is not the sort of glass that scratches easily like other phones, removing the need for a screen protector.
Plus the glass is fairly smudge resistant and very smooth to touch.
I fail to see a need.
3 months w/o a screen protector and there isn't a single scratch on my device.
I had a Nexus One with no case for 17 months, which I predominantly kept in my trouser pocket. Not one single scratch on the glass but had various nicks and dents in the metal frame. Have had my gs2 for about 3 months and already have four big scratches on the screen. So my advice, but a protector.

2 months here, zero scratches.
Start using it without any protector. Trust and experience the good feel of the Gorilla Glass. And by any chance if you see any slightest roughness (rare though) appearing... apply a protector.

if that happens, u are too late already.
that's why u should at least use a protector, to at least prevent that
3 months no protection but im still paronoid i think i need on so whats the best one on the market
I have the SGP Glas just for those crazy moments when something goes wrong. Already busted a Ultra Crystal screen protector with a bad scratch.
Always use protection. Even if it turns out to be a waste, it's better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it.

You've had a white S2 for 3 months?
I use a screen protector and my screen is responsive and have no probs at all. good idea to use i think
I like the gorilla glass but it does seem to be a fingerprint magnet... At least with a screen protector it doesn't pick up those damn fingerprints...
My opinion is that anything that can put a scratch on gorilla glass will have no trouble cutting through a VERY thin layer of film you have applied on top of the gorilla glass making it's 'protection' void.
However, I'm still too paranoid not to use a protector.... :S
I suggest to use one.. I have no problem with touch sensitivity problem.. Better safe than sorry..

Currently there's no screen protector for ME572c; fortunately, however, the screen size and cutout are exactly same as Nexus 7 2013 edition.
Now I want to know which tempered glass plate is the best.
Thanks a lot for this useful information. But just to make, did use already test it with some screen protector?
Thanks for confirming this.
Btw, I have a note 3 and Nilkin 9H+ is awesome. (tempered glass)

I am satisfied with this tempered glass though the cam's hole is a bit off (barely noticeable), and the clarity seems to be good, and the oleophobic layer is there.
This is my first time using a Tempered Glass Screen Protector as I was thinking of getting extra protection for the gigantic screen. Installation was very easy and there is not bubble at all. It only takes me two times to install it properly. You'll just need to follow the instruction and use the tools provided with the packaging.all the cutouts are accurate and I like the fact that it does not covers the front facing camera and also the proximity sensor. The screen is HD clear and super smooth as if there is nothing on it!I'll never go back to those cheap plastic screen protectors again.
I share the link of the iVoler screen protector for Nexus 6 !I hope it can help you to protect your Nexus 6 !!

No halo?
Can you upload some pics please? Do you have any halo?
This poster must work for ivoler, every post of his has something to do with that company.

NO,"halo" issues with the screen protector due to the curved glass of the nexus 6. This glass is slightly smaller all around to eliminate these halos.

Tried it as the Ivoler protector I had on my M8 was good. I hated the one for the Nexus 6. It was almost the same size as the screen and therefore didn't adhere on the top and bottom edges as the glass on the phone slightly curves. Ordered a Fosmon and much happier with the results. Tapered edges, feels good, and notched for the sensor on top of the screen.
So far I've tried 5 different screen protectors and they've all been garbage. I want to try the Zagg one but don't really want to waste 40 bucks on something that's hard to return if it sucks.
Has anyone used it? Does it cover the screen properly?
No, it doesn't. I've got about 0.5 mm of uncovered AMOLED on each side.

Thanks for the replies. Wonder if anyone is going to just make a damn glass screen protector that curves so it fits this screen. I'd spend a decent amount of money on that.

I voiced the same thought in another thread. Seems like that would solve quite a lot of TGSP problems considering more and more phones are being made with 2.5D glass.

Could you possible elaborate on which particular brands of screen protectors you got? You know, for research purposes
No, but I was there when my brother and his SO both put zaggs on their piXeL and they did end up with the slightly exposed screen on either side. Very very poor work by zagg. PeehPs even more troubling was that they each had multiple protectors simply not adhering at the edges, which was frustrating. They went to Verizon to complain and were given free exchanges since the verizon folks said lots of people (of all phone types) had been having these exact issue with the zaggs recently. Definitely not touching them myself.
[2-Pack] Google Pixel Screen Protector, Dmax Armor [Tempered Glass] 0.3mm 9H Hardness, Anti-Scratch, Anti-Fingerprint, Bubble Free, Ultra-clear - Noticeable screen on both sides of a perfectly centered protector.
Pixel intelliGLASS HD The Smarter Galaxy Glass Screen Protector by intelliARMOR To Guard Against Scratches and Drops. HD Clear With Max Touchscreen Accuracy. - Noticeable screen on both sides of a perfectly centered protector.
[2-Pack] Klearlook Google Pixel 9H [Scratch Proof & Ultra Clear] Tempered Glass Screen Protector - This was the closest to covering the whole screen, but still not quite. Might have just stuck with this one if I'd realized the others were gonna be worse. Still would have bugged me though.
Google Pixel Screen Protector, Fosmon 3 Pack [Full Screen Coverage | HD Crystal Clear] TPU Sticky Coating Screen Shield for Google Pixel - This is not a tempered glass protector. Because it's so thin it was impossible to get off it's adhesive covers without touching the sticky side, also impossible to get it down centered and without bubbles because it was too thin. But it did cover the entire screen properly.
Google Pixel Screen Protector (5")[2-Pack], ILLUMI AquaShield Full Coverage Screen Protector for Google Pixel HD Clear Anti-Bubble Film - I bought this one the other day but it has not arrived yet. Figured i'd give the wet apply one a try because I can at least center it and it should cover the whole screen. I'll have to see how it feels though.
I put on a wet-apply protector the other day and am quite happy with it. I went with the Skinomi MatteSkin.
I've used matte protectors before and never stayed with them. I'm finding I really like this one, though. It has a satin kind of look that goes well with the black leather skin and colored "G" logo (Slickwraps).

I haven't tried the zag, but I'm using the SuperShieldz and it's pretty good.
Has anyone tried both the official OnePlus 5 3D curved screen protector and compare it to the auckly full screen full adhesive screen protector? Does anyone notice any difference between the two?
I tried both and the difference I noticed is that the aukley does not have enough Force to stick to the screen.
This leads to air between the protector and the screen.
The OnePlus does this much better
I am so happy with the official OnePlus 5 screen protector.
I have auckly. It sticks to the screen just fine. I was wondering if the OnePlus screen protector hands over the edge a little
Hello!
I recently bought a OnePlus 5 and decided to give Auckly a chance...
Installing the protector is pretty easy, it fits well but won't stick completely at the edges.
Plus: I'm using a very thin flexible case. It's pushing on the edges and lift the screen protector because he's just too thick.
I'll try another one now...
