So Amazon shipped me a Glas.t for the wrong version of the Galaxy Note. I was frustrated at first, but now I'm kinda glad. I can't believe I was going to pay $35 for a screen protector that will scratch as easily as the Gorilla glass. (I'm sure it's a great sp, but can get 4 other Spigen brand sp's for the same price.) I had a Ghost Armor sp on my last phone and it definitely saved my screen.
So I'm trying to decide between the other Spigen screen protectors for the Galaxy Note. Unfortunately, the descriptions I have found are as clear as mud (oleophobic and anti-fingerprint should mean the same thing, right?). Does anyone know the real differences between the oleophobic, crystal, and optics versions? I just want the one looks and feels the most like glass (no anti-glare or matte/textured surface).
The crystal one is the most clear version of those 3. The optics is matte/textured. I haven't seen the oleophic in person yet.
I had the Glas.T before and then got the Oleophobic. No complaints. The Oleophobic is really clear and feels as smooth as glass. It still picks up finger prints, but not quite as much as the screen protectors you'd get from ebay.
I have tried the Oleo and Ultra Crystal. Much happier with UC and I have it on all my devices
I use both. Ultra Cryatal in my Galaxy Note and Oleophobic on Droid Bionic.
I prefer Ultra Crystal.
UC:
Pros: Crystal clear, thicker and more scatch resistant than Oleo
Cons: Lots of finger prints and glare.
Oleo:
Pros: Finger print resistant and less glare than UC
Cons: Film is little thinner, not as clear as UC and scratches much easier than UC.

I currently have an oleophobic one applied on my Note. There's like 2 small bubbles to the side of the screen, but it's barely noticeable.
Screen quality still looks great, and swiping on it feels fine too.
I had the UC and now have the Oleo and really I couldn't tell the difference between them. Both are very clear and, at least to me, had the same level of oil resistance.
I too had a hard time deciphering the descriptions on the Spigen website about their screen protectors. I decided to go with the oleophobic and it should be here in a few days. I will chirp back when I have an opinion about it.
My one concern though, is that they call it the i717 screen protector, but they show a picture of the international note on the website. I hope they send the right one. Was this your problem with the incorrect Glas.t they sent you for your note?
The problem I had was that Amazon did the fulfillment for Spigen. So Amazon actually screwed up and sent me the wrong one. Then they actually told me to order what I wanted from someone else because they couldn't guarantee that they even had the one I wanted.
So I ended up getting the Ultra Oleophobic. I got the best installation I've ever had on a screen protector...it's perfect. I cleaned the note first with eyeglass cleaner spray and wiped it clean. Then I covered the entire screen with scotch tape. Next, I steamed the bathroom with a hot shower and waited a few minutes for the steam to settle. I waited to pull off the scotch tape until I was absolutely ready with the sp, and I never held the sp upside down (or sticky side up). The rest of the application was easy and I did not have a single speck of dust or bubbles.
As for the screen protector itself, I have mixed feelings. The fit and finish are great. It's very clear and it does not distort or pixelate the display. However, it doesn't seem to be any more oleophobic that the screen underneath.
If anyone is interested in swapping your 2nd Ultra Crystal for my 2nd Ultra Oleophobic, send me a PM. I'm very happy with this SP, but I would like to try the other next time.

do your light and proximity sensors work even if they are voered by the screen protector?
So I've read that a few people on this forum have removed their Factory ASF, though I haven't read much feedback on how this affected the device:
- was the sensitivity of the screen altered?
- did the screen quality change?
- is there sticky residue left after removal?
- if so, does the residue come off after a few weeks of removal?
I've watched several videos where the ASF is removed off of the Xperia Z, but I have yet to come across videos for the Xperia TABLET Z.
(Just Search "Xperia Z anti shatter film removal" on Youtube)
So far, the feedback is good for removing the ASK off the Xperia Z, but is it really safe for the Xperia Tablet Z?
Should I :
a) Remove the ASF and leave it as so
b) Remove the ASF and purchase a screen protector.
c) Leave the ASF on and purchase a screen protector
I have no scratches on my device yet, but I am afraid of having some in the future due to the fragility of the ASF.
Thanks!
I recklessly went ahead and removed the ASF with a box cutter and peeled of the film and I am satisfied with the results!
Youtube link : youtube.com/watch?v=xuwHzRYnzQY (sorry, new user -> cant post links)
The SONY logo is still on, but after washing the surface with a cloth and water, most of the adhesive is gone and it has a much better feel to it than the default film!
With that said, I plan on purchasing a Screen Protector anyways and have just bought the Poetic Slimline Case.
So far, I like the change because there is:
>Less Friction (After washing the tablet)
>Bettter Responsiveness
>Scratch resistance that eclipses the ASF
>A more premium feel to the screen
This DOES void your warranty so be wary of that, but in my opinion this was a worthwhile change!
I have been thinking about doing this since the day I got my xtz and an hour later seeing a small scratch. Does the true screen really seem more scratch proof?

It actually is resistant to scratches, I have absolutely no idea why Sony decided to apply a scratchable film on top of their scratch resistant screen, it really seems like nonsense. Plus, the glass surface seems smother after washing it, so I definitely recommend doing it, I doubt it affects shatter resistance, if you drop your tablets from 1 meter/3ft, it's screen is likely to break either way.
I ordered the Poetic Slimline Case, so that'll add protection to the tablet too; it theoretically renders the ASF's "purpose" useless since it offers shock redistribution. The screen remains a fingerprint magnet, though, but it's not as bad as having the film on.
My Questions: Answered
Q - was the sensitivity of the screen altered?
A: Yes, The screen feels more responsive. An overall improvement. +1
Q - did the screen quality change?
A: The screen is definitely clearer and fingerprints are less prominent An overall improvement. +1
Q - is there sticky residue left after removal?
A: Yes, but a cloth and water or a screen washing solution removes it after a bit of rubbing, not much effort is needed.
Q - if so, does the residue come off after a few weeks of removal?
A: Refer to above answer.

I removed the shatterproof film on mine within a week of getting the tablet. I hate the feel of screen protectors and like to leave all my devices unprotected!
Anyway, I'd highly recommend anyone thinking of it to go ahead and remove it. YES, it does improve touch sensitivity and its so much better to touch real glass than a plastic film. I didn't notice much change in the display quality and would love to see a kernel which will let me change some of the gamma settings (way too warm for me now and blacks aren't dark enough).
Removing the film is not that easy and there will be some residue left behind but it comes off with a days use.
I also removed the film.
Now I find the color reproduction better, picture seems brighter, touch sensitivity unchanged.
And indeed the feeling of touching glass is better!
Only thing is, now the rim is a bit higher than the screen glass (just the amount that equals the thickness of the Sony screen protector which is surprisingly thick), which doesn't feel as smooth to the fingers when holding the device.
You can adjust the white balance by rooting the tablet and installing the white balance from the Xperia ZL. There is a thread somewhere (Xperia ZL white balance ported to Xperia Z or so) with instructions how to install. Works flawlessly here. For removing the yellowish/greenish tint, you have to increase the saturation of blue/violet tones (complementary color).
I can't seem to get the peeling started any pointers?

You have to cautiously lift one corner of the film with a very thin blade, for instance a carpet knife. Then you can grab the film and peel it off.
I am using Poetic Slim Case. It perfectly fits with luxury look and feel.
I bought Sony case and returned within an hour after walked out of the store. Ridiculous expensive but feel cheapo.

I am still rocking the shipping plastic screen which goes over the ASF. lol.
I'd just like to point out the "purpose" of the shatterproof screen protector is to prevent shattering (key word being shatter meaning shards of glass coming Off the screen the screen) which the protector does its job and keeps the shards on the device thus making it shatterproof. It does not make it crack proof. And replacing with another screen protector Will retain the original shatterproof ability. I am happy to have stumbled across this thread as I was unaware there was a protector and was mad that it scratched so easily. Now I have a way to remove those scratches.
I have to be entirely honest here, i got my XTZ 4 months ago and i just now realised it even has an antishatter film
i was directed here by another kind member, after noticing my EasyAcc case was causing scratches on the screen.
I am glad that the screen itself has not been scratched, but instead the ASF. Was effing annoyed when I saw the scratches!
Now that I know it is just the ASF I am going to keep it on and allow it to take more punishment before I take it off! Then i'll decide whether to buy another protector or leave the screen naked.
Was considering getting the Official Sony case, but feedback from people here is not good, so I guess the seach continues for an alternative case.
I'd recommend against buying the Sony case. It's too expensive for the design and quality. My first one was damaged within 2 months of normal use.... Luckily they replaced it.

removing ASF from my tablet Z is the best thing I have done..... sharper and more responsive with my stylus.... and more ....
the best is the fingers print ... without the film minimum print.....
don't tell Sony lol
I just removed mine almost two years after I bought the tablet. Brilliant. You can imagine the level of scratching on the tablet by now!!!! Now, let's get lollipop and it'll feel like that I got a brand new tablet for nothing!
Removed mine after many years with this tablet and sadly regret:
- Glass is uncoated so feels worse to touch, has higher friction, and picks up oily marks. Refraction from fingerprints is now visible when the display is on; oleophobic coating normally prevents this
- Screen appearance is identical, no change in colours/contrast/etc. I'm a nerd when it comes to monitor calibration so I don't say this lightly!
- Most importantly: touch input is degraded. I have verified with the developer tools that swipes misbehave - either registering as a tap, or as a swipe that jumps to the corner of the screen. Scrolling feels broken now - often fails to continue momentum scrolling after removing finger due to the corner jump
Overall would not recommend, the digitiser is calibrated for the ASF to be present. The only positive is fewer scratches.
My current phone is a Nexus 6P and I have been using a Spigen case + an intelliArmor tempered glass screen protector. Both products are excellent and I have been thrilled with them (and the phone), but the battery is starting to go on me so I figured it was time for a replacement. After some research I settled on the XZP (G8142).
I was able to order the Spigen case for the XZP, but intelliArmor does not make a screen shield (that I can find), so I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with Supershieldz before.
I looked at getting the Skinomi skin and just using the part for the screen along with the Spigen case, but I really prefer tempered glass.
Looking forward to my first Xperia phone!
** UPDATE **
The protector, phone, and case all came in. The Spigen case is top notch as expected, as is the phone itself.
The screen protector is also fantastic. I tried putting it on the recommended way (using the guide stickers), but I could never get the right alignment using this method. I ended up free-handing it and lining it up as best I could, and I think I got within a half millimeter or so of a perfect application (the bottom is perfect, the top speaker is slightly off but not enough to be annoying or obstruct the speaker). There were absolutely no air bubbles to smooth out, which surprised me.

Is the adhesive just on the edges of the Tempered Glass? Is there some oil-like residue between the screen and glass?
I purchased a very similar Tempered Glass protector to the Supershieldz version and found the adhesive is just on the edges, top/bottom/left and right but the entirety of the screen, where the border is not is free to flex and obviously, with the gap that exists without adhesion has an odd oil-like residue, which many users reported.
I have had my XZP for a week now and have not even used it because I want a proper Tempered Glass protector which has received good reviews, along with a folio/wallet/flip case which has a strong latch/magnet to protect the phone overall, along with waiting for a DRM/TA fix before I stop using the Z5P and move onto my XZP.

Mine has the glue on the edges but there's no oil or anything in the middle.
It looks very similar to the Supershieldz one, might even be a rebrand. It's under the brand name "Panzer Glass".
It works pretty much flawlessly.

The one I purchased is very similar also, but has the cut-out where you can see the Sony 'logo'. Reviews are poor for those, everyone has observed the same issues as myself. I have purchased several other Tempered Glass Protectors, still waiting for them to arrive, different styles and brands to see which is the best fit with the best coverage. I will report back.

I didn't actually notice if the adhesive was along the edges or the entire piece of glass, but it seemed like the whole piece had adhesive when I peeled off the protective plastic before applying.
I have been using the phone with the protector for about two weeks and here are my observations:
I have moved my thumbs with ample pressure across the face of the protector to see if the glass shifts or moves. It hasn't budged.
No oily residue or weird artifacts.
The fit is quite nice. Without a case, the edges would be noticeable, but with the Spigen case on you can hardly tell there is a screen protector.
In bright/direct sunlight or when you hold the phone in bright light just right you will see a grid of dots on the LCD screen - I don't know if this is because of the protector or the screen itself. It doesn't bother me as it is not noticeable the majority of the time.
My account is too new to link to external sites, so just search supershieldz xperia xz premium on Amazon and it should come up.

Appreciate the feedback. I have just taken possession of a Muvit Tempered glass, it is clear without any borders but just the same as the rest. Everyone I have tried thus far has adhesive only on the edges, the larger portion of the screen is free to flex and move and due to that, requires a firmer press and in doing so, you hear a crisp packet like noise, a sort of crunching sound. Really annoying me now, but it is due to the curvature of the screen that we are seeing a lack of good quality glass protectors. For the Z5P I found P-Think on Amazon to be the best, yet to find any suitable candidates for the XZP.
I will order a double pack of Supershieldz soon.
I was just curious that how many of you use your phone without any protection? I just started using like that and it feels really nice. The hyper-cut diamond finish gives a good grip to the hand.
I really like the feel of the phone in the hand, nicest I've had to hold, and is the only phone I ever use a case with...I just know if I leave it out the case there will be an expensive accident.
I use it without cover but with a glass screen protector
I don't use any glass or cover. I buy nice designed phones to feel the nice full metal unibody with a slim design.
If i would like to feel any cheap, fat plastic body i can buy a phone with a cheap plastic body.
I use xtremeskins UK sticker on top of back of my phone and plastic film screen protector as the one preinstalled has worn out. I have black carbon fibre version of the sticker with red accent on camera lens (which actually matches power button colour ) it looks cool and gives that extra grip.
Here is a link to website:
https://www.xtremeskins.co.uk/products/huawei-p10-skins?variant=36513341329
You can see for yourself how will your phone look like before you buy the actuall skin. The quality of a skin is amazing ,it's hardly add any bulk to the device and it does make it feel better in hand as well as add that extra wow factor when you pull out your phone from pocket.
I received my P10 on Thurs 07/12 and wanted to get a few opinions on whether i should remove the factory fitted screen protector prior to applying a glass screen protector or if i should just clean the factory fitted protector with the alcohol pads/swabs provided and stick the new glass screen protector on top?
Does the factory fitted protector reduce the clarity/sharpness of the screen in any way?
Would this be adequate:

Kind Regards
I'm using the original Huawei Flip cover and a full glass screen protector. As an electrician my hands aren't clean Everytime I grab my phone and sometimes I need to put some tools in the same pocket as the P10 is in.
But I hate the glass protector even it works very well. There's a black border around the whole protector and after a few month the protector doesn't fit perfectly anymore, it moved a bit to the left. The transparent part of the protector is a bit smaller than the screen and this is kind of annoying especially know it's moved.
I don't want to use a protector, but I think I need one. I don't want an ugly scratch on the screen.
Hi,
I removed the factory installed film in the screen and replaced it with a matte IQ Shield protector. It's great. It's not glass, but it has no reflections. Like most laptops.
Ok guys I got the Xperia 1 iii after much thought and since I got it after getting the official Sony case and a screen protector I have been through 3 glass screen protectors in like the first couple of weeks and hadn't even droped my phone outside . I put this down to the poor protection from the official Sony case offers. So I purchased the Spigen case that offers the full bumper cover and replaced another Spigen glass screen protector for little under £15 and after putting it on my bed side cabinet last night and getting in the car this morning I noticed the screen protector is broken again .and I haven't even dropped it inside . So I'm down over £100 in the last month or so and geting fed up with trying to find a decent case and screen protector for the Xperia 1 iii
I also look for a good screen protector. Which one can I get on Amazon Italy?
I have read that it is best to avoid the spigen align master.
As a cover I feel great with the Spigen
Spigen case is great. You will not find a suitable screen protector because the edges of the screen are still "curved" thereby not allowing the protector to cover the entire screen edge-to-edge. I gave up on a screen protector for most phones lately due to this fact.

I think it depends on what you mean by edge to edge protection. If you mean it covers the entire front, bezels included all the way to phone edges than no there isn't one, though those screen protectors with black borders all around get pretty close. The draw back is that depending on the manufacturer, some of them have black borders covering the edges of the screen more than others, which can be noticeable and annoying.
There are also screen protectors that go slightly beyond the edge of the screen. As in you can see the border between the screen and the bezels right beneath the glass, but that's about it. I consider that screen edge to edge and I have been using that. As you mentioned, since the screen curves ever so slightly at edges, the edge of that screen protector doesn't sit 100% flush on the screen.
Some manufacturers give a kind of transparent filler glue that you can brush in the gap along the edge to fill it up and make it looks seamless instead of a visible air gap. However because it isn't a solid surface, the glass along the edges can crack if you press your screen edge hard enough multiple times, maybe from an intense gaming session. But under normal use, so far it held up.
I don't have recommendations, as I bought them from my local e-commerce site, although they are direct from China, so I'm sure they are there somewhere on Taobao or Aliexpress. I am not sure of which ones are these if I were to search on those platforms, or on your platforms like Amazon.
I use spigen glass and except the first one that broken easily i have no issue.
I bought spigen case but trashed it after a single day..too bulky...i bought a 10 Eur in soft clear silicon off amazon.it (Elyco Cover) Not the best against yellow tint but i smoke then no case will ever be safe from yellow tint.
But this cover is really really thin and don't ruin phone appearance
The spigen cover for iphone 12 pro was good, pretty thin but protective. The one for Xperia 1 III from spigen is really really bad, it protect well but increase the size of the phone in a nasty way

Not sure which Spigen case you are talking about but the one I have does not add hardly anything to the feel of the phone. Oh well, to each his own!

The Spigen ultra hybrid (in 2021 It was the only cover for Xperia 1III fine by Spigen)
And compared to the One i use now is sensibly bigger and bulkier, also i found the hard plastic parts in the rear of the cover pretty nasty.
For example on my old Xperia 1 i have the Spigen Crystal liquid cover and if you compare that Spigen cover with the One for X1 III Is pretty clear how the new cover made the phone bulkier.
It's not much, around 1-1.5 mm thicker, but the feeling Is worst, at least for me.

I really recommend the original cover with stand:
Osłona z podstawką do smartfonu Sony Xperia 1 III | XQZ-CBBCB - Etui - sklep internetowy Sony Centre
XQZCBBCB.ROW : Stylowa osłona z podstawką do smartfonu Xperia 1 III

It is made of materials that helps heat dissipation and also anti-bacterial.
Maybe it's only a cover and expensive one but I can say it is really a good quality. So I can recommend it.
Spigen cases all the way. Had them since my Nexus 6P.
If you can get up to north Wales tech base they have what they call clear shield it's like that dbrand skin I have it on my Xperia 5 ii only prob is getting there and paying 20 pound of you want I can show pictures of the front and back o also have the like crabon type back cover and also have Duc ducis flip case I alternate between the 2 and go naked sometimes
Here's what I was on about
