UK Screen Protectors - Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories

Evening all, i know theres so many already but i thought id start a thread on just screen protectors available in the UK. Almost all the thread ive seen when people post a link its never available here to buy so to make it quicker and easier lets see what the others in the uk have got
cheers, all

No one in the UK?

I'm interested in what others are using here in the UK. Don't really want to pay for a whitestone dome as I think it's way over priced.
Current using a cheap film protector off amazon
Galaxy S8(5.8 Inch) Screen Protector, Klearlook® [Updated Case-Friendly Version] https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0727TVMYT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_HwVHzbD8JC23Y
They stick to the phone really well and work with a case but they make the phone screen look a little fuzzy, you can hardly tell there's one installed if it wasn't from the image quality. I can live with this for now as I want my phone to have some protection but would love to see what others are using that might be better.
I've used 2 cases with these and have had no issues with lifting. Currently using a speck presidio grip that I'm really happy with.
Here is a pic of them installed when using a Choetech clear case.

Screen Protectors?

Hi
Does anybody recommend a screen protector for my HTC Touch Pro HD. Ive looked on ebay but just want a pointer towards the good ones as i dont know which ones are usless or which ones are the best?
Tried using the search option? Tons of threads like this.
Try ZAGG's InvisibleShield.
Thanks a lot matey
Actually give Expert Shield a go, have heard less complaints about them and using one myself.
Its much cheaper than Zagg if you get it from Ebay.
whats wrong with the one that came with your phone? i personally have no issue with it and bought a silicon protector for the phone and thats enough for me to keep the phone in good nick
anti glare screen prots are very handy though

The Bodyguardz (case protective film) NOT GOOD ???

Hi there
I'm new here and my English is not that good, so sorry for any mistakes I made.
I'm using a T-mobile TP2 (may be not using I just waiting for it to be delivered)
>>>>> I wondered that why there no body talking about " The Bodyguardz "
at all? Is it not good? ( cuz I just purchased 1)
All I heard is the story about the Invisibleshield but according to the pictures
shown in both websites I though that Bodyguardz is more protective because
it also protect the rear sides around the phone. In contrast, the
Invisibleshield is just on the back and front side of the phone.
Moreover, one box of the Bodyguardz has 2 set of the films in it, although
the price per box is higher.
So I just wonder that is it not good? (the Bodyguardz)
I would highly reccomend the bodyguardz skin over any other skin. i had it for my android and the texture and feel is really good. i compared it to my friends invishield and the invishield is not good at all. it makes the screeen not as responsive and it feels sqishy as opposed to bodyguardz that feels hard but not to hard.
customer service at bodyguardz is great. it also comes with to body guards. invishield only comes with one. they both have "free" lifetime replacements.
(i mean invisibleshield)
i use to promote and love zagg but after two mysterious scuff that cant be remove i decide to go with bodyguardz...they are much better plus you get 2 instead of one and shipping is much faster and much better customer service

Thanks, mate it's good to hear that!
Yes, I agree that their services is quite good.
Do you have any special techniques or tips&tricks concerning the installation process to share?
I think it's harder to install the Bodyguardz compared to Invisible shield becaus the Bodyguardz had many small rear pieces.
just few things...
be patient and the blow dryer is your friend. fyi... if you order more bodyguardz dont order the liquid. they will give you one with every order. with that said dont be scared to be generous with the liquid while applying.
You guys helped me to make my decision. I'm going to order a Bodyguardz kit. Thanx.
I also bit the bullet and ordered a Bodyguardz kit--will let you guys know how it goes.
Hi there shawndh and nuron!
Nice to have you guys on board. Hope you could share some experiences or tips & tricks
after you applied it. I'm waiting for it to arrive too and start to worried about the
installation processes.
Don't forget to let us know how it goes. : )
Cheers!
bodyguardz
Hello everyone
Dude, my english is not very strong either lol, since we r both Thai rite, I mean Mr.what150 and I, lol. However, I hav a question.
I just hav my Invisible Shield installed on my standard HTC TP2 and I agreed that I don't really feel comfortable with it, u know, kind of rubber feel
Also, it doesn't cover the whole thing like bodyguardz, just half of the chrome part T_T. Is there any bodyguard on sell on Internet fer mai EUROPEAN standard HTC TP2? If there's any, please.
p.s. somebody says the bodyguards protection quality is not as good as Invisible Shield's ? Is that true ?
what150, mines is schedule to arrive in like September 9th because I picked the free shipping haha. From the instructional videos, it looks like keeping your hands and phone clean and using the solution is the key. For the corners and edges, they recommend using a blow dryer in 5-second intervals in order to get them sticky again if it is too wet.
Zagg for Touch Pro 2
I bought a Zagg invisibleSHIELD for the stock HTC TP2 which is what they had for my T-Mobile TP2 and after one hour got it on as best as I could. Looked like [email protected] Then I read that Zagg was making a T-Mobile model. So I got an RMA number for a HTC model and was told to buy a T-Mobile TP2 one. Well I used the one on my phone and noticed that as time went one the top front cover was peeling back more and more (I keep my phone in my jean pocket). Well I got to look at the Zagg website and I see that the T-Mobile one covers the front and back with no wrap over the top. If this is the case then the peeling will happen again with the new T-Mobile TP2 model. Can anyone confirm this design?
TIA,

Where can I purchase an OEM-quality screen protector??

Hiya,
So I made the mistake of purchasing a Zagg Invisible Shield. I hate the rubbery feel of the screen AND the phone. Anyone know where I can purchase a screen protector with the exact same quality as the one that came with the TP2 as I really like its quality.
Thanks for any help
not knowing what country your from (assuming UK like me) how about this link
if you want HTC original fee to the protector then buy from HTC
http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=179111
if your not UK then go to HTC.com and choose your country
Bear in mind that you can find better screen protectors than the stock one out there - Brando, Martin Fields etc. The HTC one was OK in my experience but it was prone to scratches - three months ant it was a goner. Brando crystal clear - better looking, better feel and not a single mark after half a year.
I agree...Invisible Shield sucks.
I bought two. I sent them both back before I got a decent one. They looked like they had been cut out with 1st graders' scissors and were ratty and frayed. Not to mention, they make everything look murky, and you can never get all the air bubbles out.
For me I bought it from here, h t t p : / / w w w. boxwave . com /accessorie s/h t c-tilt-2-screen-p rotectors_3729. htm The anti glare one as well as the case. Love both of them, this film u can see that it's there but it works like a charm. Oh and no bubbles or anything, it was worth every pennies.

ArmorSuit Military Shield

I bought an ArmorSuit Military Shield from Amazon.
I feel like it works great. It takes getting used to writing on it if you wrote just straight on the glass, but once you get used to it I feel like it is a better experience. It creates just enough friction/drag when using the digitized pen that it almost feels like pen/paper. I have not found any negative effects when using the touch screen or when using the pen after installing this screen protector.
It is also awesome at reducing fingerprints on the screen. More info about it can be found in this thread on the Lenovo forums.
Cheers.

It was supposed to be 6-10 buisness days, so this kinda sucks.

i used borderlinx, to ship it first into the usa and then to me to austria...
but i combined my order with a TPT Dock, so the shipment costs are not that high in comparison if i would buy it here...

cases and screen protectors?

Does anyone know where to get a cases and screen protectors? all I can find is for the international and sprint version. My phone arrives on monday
Got mine from ATT yesterday and they had a case on display, it's a dual protection case for $35, adds a little thickness to the phone. I did find this one online http:// http://www.amzer.com/Amzer-Simple-Cl...ack-P95089.htm
im currently rocking the belkin bumper from the att store. looks good and feels good
I got a "Body Glove" which is a gel inside a hard case. So far, I like it. It doesn't add as much girth as an otterbox. I also added a screen protector (yeah, I know that it's gorilla glass, but I've seen scratches on GG too).
have any pics?

Screen Protector and Case
I too was looking around for cases and screen protectors as I just got the phone today! Love it so far. Really well made and fast phone. I found an Spigen (SGP) screen protector but it's for the Sprint and International one, but since the screens are the same (to my knowledge) I sent an email asking Spigen if they are compatible and also asked then when the AT&T Optimus G cases will be released. Will update when I receive an email back.
P.S.
I tried the Belkin Bumper for this phone at the AT&T store, and truly hated it because it made the phone look super weird.
I found a good screen protector for the front and back of the phone.
Search Amazon and eBay for the screen protector: REALOOK AT&T LG Optimus G(LG-E970) Screen Protector
(I'm not allowed to post a link until 10 posts)
I ordered this today and will post here on the quality when I get them.

I can vouch for the quality of this BodyGlove case that AT&T sells.... this morning I found my phone laying underneath our kitchen table. The phone had fallen 6 feet from a shelf and our floor is made of smooth concrete. I noticed it somehow made contact with three corners of the case leaving gashes... but inside my phone was found in pristine condition when removing the case. If it works from 6 feet it will most certainly be fine dropped from your hand or out of pants pocket

Got the body glove dual protection case from AT&T for my wife's LGOG, it seems to be the best case out at the moment although I hope Seido puts out something soon since I think the case is a little too smooth/slick and it's bound to slip out of her hands at some point in time. Would like something slightly more grippy.
I got one of the cheapo snap together hard cases locally, and the tabs on it snapped when I put it on.
I would avoid these, and for now, go with either the Belkin bumper, body glove, or wait for the speck and otterbox cases to be released.
Anyone have pictures of the case they are using?
I've had good luck with GreatShield screen protectors on my previous phone (SG2). Just ordered some from Amazon, they come 3 to a pack, easy, dry install. I prefer their anti-glare (matte) version though, low drag. The glossy version showed fingerprints and had an annoying drag effect. GreatShield also makes a nice, cheap TPU case but I couldn't find one for the OG.
I have a favor to ask can some one with the AT&T Optimus G and a good scanner the higher the DPI the beater make a scan of the front and back of the phone I have a company that can produce glass screen protectors all they need is a good scan of the phone the higher the DPI the beater. just PM me if you can help. Thanks.
I ordered this case for my e970 as it clearly states that it is for the at&t model. It came in today and of course is for the LS970 instead. It won't fit but it is a cool case. I would actually recommend this of you have the LS970 model.
I also ordered 3 screen protectors from EZ Gaurdz and I can 100% honestly say they are the worst I have ever seen. I've had a couple bad ones before, but these are awful. The cut is horrid and the material is decent at best. They do not come with top and bottom peel off layers like most do.
I've requested a refund on both of the items.
******UPDATE*******
I've received a refund from both sellers for the items. If anyone wants the case they can have it. Just pay shipping. PM me if you're interested. I will weigh it in the morning and update this post with shipping info. It shouldn't be more than a couple bucks for US. I like the case and I'm sad it didn't work out, but at least someone here can use it.

Not getting good mojo right now.
I sent Joel Michael from Cruzerlite a message via Gplus earlier about making a case. I will let you know why he says. Even if he says yes it will still take a month or so before we could have one in hand.

I tried that same case, same results. The seller was prompt with the refund and told me to keep the case. Guess it's going back up on Ebay. Finally rec'd the GreatShield screen protectors, but they were too long and the cutouts were wrong. The package was labeled LG Optimus G but the fit wasn't even close. Still waiting for that refund (3rd party on Amazon).
