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:

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.

I am mainly concerned about fingerprints and smoothness of the operation. Clarity is an important factor also so appears matte finish isn't what I'm looking for since you have that moire over text and such. What would be the optimal screen protector?
Skinomi. Awesome and very easy to apply. They also have the best customer service support!
I actually messed up while applying my screen protector and they sent me a new kit within 2 business days.
Where to get it: Amazon, nuff said.
Thanks for the tip. I think I'm going to try something cheapo like this just so my mother can see if she can live with a matte finish for about a week.
http://www.amazon.com/Anti-Glare-Sc...sformer/dp/tech-data/B005OUE8R2/ref=de_a_smtd
If she finds she can I will find a good high product one.. if not I will go straight with Skinomi most likely than. But I think buying a cheap matte one so she can experience and anti-glare, anti-fingerprint (most critical is fingerprint reduction) than she can make an intelligent decision without blowing $15 just to find she does not like it.
I tried the Zagg and it was a disaster. Application was messy and I personally didn't like the grippy feel. I just got my BodyGuardz put on a couple days ago though and I love it. I bought the combo carbon fiber skin/HD anti-glare screen protector and it's fantastic. Nice feel and definitely cuts down on glare and fingerprints.
Also, if you find them on facebook and post "BodyGuardz Me!" on their wall, they'll send you a 30% off coupon code.
Skinomi
Skinomi wet-apply screen protectors are pretty easy to apply, however they are grippy (like the Zagg's) and 'soft' as in an your fingernail can easily and accidentally leave an indent on the screen protector. It feels almost too soft, where things that leave an indent on the screen protector would never even damage the Gorilla Glass underneath.
Good thing is because it is soft like rubber, most indents un-indent themselves after a while.
Screen Protector
got my screen protector for my Asus Eee Pad made by http://secondshells.com/screen-prot...n-protector-anti-glare-anti-finger-print.html I ordered the anti-glare screen protectors through SecondShells. I have used simply because the touch screen did not lose any sensitivity after I applied it.
The protector had a nice rectangular notch cutout for the camera and for the light sensor(I think that's what it is), I had purchased other protectors and they had these small circular holes, you had to be perfect to install it right, this larger opening made my life a lot easier. Overall very easy to apply, a peel and stick type of protector, with protective covers.. I am very happy. I also recommend getting a stylus like the nano fiber stylus I also ordered from SecondShells responds great with my tablet. http://secondshells.com/touch-stylu...n-with-nano-fabric-retractable-tip-black.html
The Skinomi is nice. Just installed it today. It doesn't reduce glare but the touch is nice. I only wish it were oleophobic...
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using XDA Premium HD app
I installed the Ghost Armor clear front an back on mine and love it. It is a little bit grippy, but no where near as bad as Zagg, which I can't stand!! Ordered mine direct from them for less than $35 shipped. Install is your standard wet install which is super easy in my opinion. Clarity is great and does NOT have the orange peel look like Zagg does. The full body kit comes with front, back, and even pieces to cover the sides. True full body protection!!! They offer many different colors for the back including carbon fiber. http://www.ghost-armor.com/Asus/743.html
I've never been able to get the wet app to work successfully. That's why I chose the dry application secondshells offers.
Saw another post with link to it, but here's a review of the case. It's not super bulky. But add enough protection for most
Leave questions and comments
Just got one of these. My question is to pop the included screen protector off and just go with the one that came with the Nexus or peel that one off and go with the Supcase protector. I've read reviews of people suggesting both.
This is a durable feeling and looking case. I've always had UAG cases in the past but this one seemed to offer a little more protection.

I find a tempered glass screen protector under the plastic built-in one to be the best. It sits really flush this way and you can't see the halo in the glass screen protector because of the case.

If you do this, make sure you after you pop the built in screen protector off you scrape off the black adhesive that held it on or it will fuse to your screen protector and rip it off if you take off your case. Any small metal tool can be used but be careful not to scratch the case. After its removed you can use some qtips and a little bit of rubbing alcohol to clean any residual adhesive.
I didn't do this originally and my case was stuck to my screen protector for 2 months till I finally decided to try and force it off and it ruined my screen protector.
I'm going to keep my supplied screen protector on along with the case screen protector.

Good luck, sensitivity sucks!
No problems with sensitivity so far. I like the case. Little bulky but the phone feels safe.

The edges of the screen sometimes take a few tries to respond!
I have this case. Its fantastic for work. Its awfully bulky though! But, with that bulk you get great protection.
Its great if you need the protection. I typically remove the phone from the case when I'm home.

This is what I described doing in a different topic - used an X-Acto knife and it took about 10 minutes to get all the plastic protector's adhesive off, which I felt might stick or lift up the lip of their case on the actual screen protector I'm using.
However, I also found that the Supcase didn't sit perfectly flush on the Nexus 6 with my own screen protector after removing their plastic one - one longer side has a gap between the frame and my protected phone surface.
So, I am keeping this case as a backup, only.
- ooofest
Just got this case from EBay .I must say Dam good quality cases an holster love it..actually kind of like its design an fit better then Otterbox...feels more solid..
Had the case for a while its pretty good. Not a daily case for me as I switch when doing different jobs. It's actually kind of hard to get off that's a good thing for some people.
I've just had to return mine after using it for a few days. When taking pictures with the rear camera flash on, the flash and case don't work well together and the pictures are spoilt (first pic is with case, second without. You can see the tint that having the white case on causes). Disappointing as I have already had the screen break on me (first time ever!) and was happy of the extra protection that this case affords
For the most part I go naked with my N6. I am ordering one of these cases for when I go golfing and maybe some other activities where I want to have the best protection. I am keeping the supplied protector cause it will keep dust and water from getting on my phone. Which is, by the way, the reason I am going with this brand because most of the other "tough" cases don't have that.
How does this case fit around the speakers? Is it open letting dust in under the screen protector or are the speakers sealed?
They are open, dust can accumulate
I've been using mine for months now with no problems. only complaint is the camera port is long. Dust an small debris gets under screen protector, its slightly bulky but worth the protection. Both factory screen protector an case built-in on an notice a little touch sensitivity loss, but worth the protection! Add the fact that the N6 is water resistant an its damn near perfect!
I would urge you to ditch the plastic screen protector that is provided with the phone and get a premium tampered glass protector. Not only does it make the screen view much better, as well it makes handling the phone much easier, and something this phone deserves.
have you any photos of this tempered glass on P10?
Just google "Olixar Huawei P10 Tempered Glass Screen Protector".
Although it left 2-3 mm bubbles around the edges of the whole phone, which isn't nice, the bubbles looks like grey dirt, and I can't remove these bubbles. Might be looking for another brand like Zagg or something equivalent.

These bubbles are the cause why I don't replace the screen foil ^^
I use an screen protector like i posted in the oleophobic thread. No bubbles or anything here. But i don't know if it is sold somewhere outside the Netherlands.
I think these manufacture has improved over these years in producing protectors for curved glass, probably the latest trend is a normal glass protector and they include a tube of liquid adhesive to squeeze along the edge to cover the gaps, I check a few out to try, although they are not available for purchase out of hong kong or china, so I cannot provide a link, but I think places like ebay or amazon will have them available but at a much increased priced.
@ the ops, I too removed the protector, the supplied one is a good quality one, but I had a speck of dust underneath, and wasn't sure if it was dust or bright pixel. I just used one of my Sony XP protector and cut to shape for now untill I get a proper one.
Any suggestions which company do good on the p10?
I've tried two brands.
LK branded glass screen protector from Amazon UK. The fit was good, the black border blended in perfectly on my P10 black. But there was a big rainbow patch in the middle. I complained, the service was excellent, got a replacement no questions asked. But the new one also had a rainbow patch, even bigger!
Then I gave up and ordered a different one. An OMOTON branded one, also from Amazon. This one was all transparent glass, no gaps around the sides, and covers the whole screen width. It's a little short, ending with a gap at the top and bottom of the phone. However, the screen is so smooth to tap, and the brightness and colours so much better than the LK protector.
So I would recommend the OMOTON. It doesn't offer full protection, but I pair it with a simple tpu case with a lip, and it works quite well together.
Thanks for the help. Tomorrow a PULESEN, (via Amazon) will arive. If it is not that good, I go for your recommendation.
I ordered a GlasRitter protector by tradelis via eBay Germany.
It doesn't fit perfectly - the hole for the home button is around 1mm too low.
Also the glass looks like a mirror. When I'm outside at sunny weather it's really annoying and when I'm in the dark with a small light source, like a bed light, I can see myself.
So, don't buy this - it's oleophobic, but the rest isn't that good.
But it's the only one I found which covers the whole screen including the small area under the home button. Without this I don't want a protector. I need a full protector. Any recommendations?
After killing the first one of PULESEN with dust, I was able to figure out how to place the second one. It was not that easy but currently I am satisified.
When I first got my S8+, I was worried the back glass would scratch easy (turns out I was right ), so I wanted to protect it, even though I knew I would have a case on it. I've seen dirt get between phones and cases before and cause horrible scratches.
I first tried a clear wet application skin from BSE, but I could never make it look right. The midnight black shoes every imperfection and bubble, whereas my wife's Orchid Grey looks perfect with the skin on. You can't tell it's there, even on the sides.
So I began thinking it would be nice if someone made a tempered glass protector for the back. The sides are curved, but so is the screen, and there's plenty of TGSPs on the market. But I couldn't find any.
Then last week I saw one on Amazon. It comes with a full screen TGSP, a TGP for the back, and a TGP for the camera. Link is below.
It appears the back protector is like other TGSPs. It has no glue on the middle, just along the edges. That's not a big deal, as I would apply it like I did my TGSP. I would remove the adhesive strip on the edge and use LOCA to adhere it fully to the phone. Most camera lens TGPs get horrible reviews on Amazon, so it would likely go in the trash.
I'm trying to decide what to do. Here are my pros and cons, but I wanted everyone else's opinion, and also want to know if anyone else has any experience with this set. Again, I'm currently using a TGSP for the screen, so this is a question about the TGP for the BACK.
Pros:
*Protection for the back cover as well as the front.
*Protects from scratches and adds some drop protection
*Protectors are both glass, so it would still feel like a naked device.
*Back protector is Crystal clear, and with LOCA, would show off the beautiful black back glass without any bubbles, glare, etc.
*Glass doesn't get marks and dents like wet application protectors.
Cons:
*It would (probably) be too thick to use a case, so increased chance of damage if dropped.
*These TGSPs typically use cheap oleophobic coatings, so it would still be a fingerprint magnet on the back.
*This would leave a ridge around the screen and the back protector, so it MAY make it uncomfortable to hold.
*No protection for the side frame
*It will scratch (but can always be replaced
*I wish the cutouts were more precise. I'd like three separate cutouts for camera and sensors, not one big one. Would make it more seemless.
Again, looking for other thoughts and opinions and any experience.
No offense, but if all you have to say is that you go naked and have no scratches, or that you don't like screen protectors, then please don't reply. I'm not interested in a screen protector debate. I'm only interested in your opinions about this particular set and using a protector on the back. Also, I know about the liquid nano stuff and have no interest in it. I've seen all the reviews.
Thanks!

I was thinking about the same thing, this post is very helpful.
Mr Orange, I am thinking on the same lines as you were. Did you end up buying the JimBird TGSP? If so, what are your opinions of it and how well did it work for you? It seems like something simple to offer, but so hard to find. Thanks!
Hello im Veronica and this is my first post owing this phone and im loving it! i bought a glass protection that come is curve design but it didnt fit well bubbles of air started to appear and i took it off
Have you tried the liquid protection ? i dont know the name of the product but is a liquid you put in the screen and it makes it hard
Please help me what do you use to protect it?
I use the uv Loca glue and glue on the curved tempered glass protectors on mine
Hi veronica. I own now an s8, but my previous phone was a galaxy s7 (the flat one), in which I had a tempered glass protector. But now, with the curved display of miss s8, the tempered glass I've found are not so great. I really don't recommend the liquid protection , that supposed nano tech solution. I've seen it, and its effects are practically none. U can't tell when u you've applied or not.
As the previous post says, the better solution is to take a tempered glass and UV glue between that and the gorilla glass, and dry it in the UV lamp. That way, u get a better protection, but need to try take out the air bubbles that may get in the process before dry.
I'm sorry if my English can't be excellent, because it's not my original language.
Greetings to u.
I also would be interested in mounting a tempered glass screen protector with a liquid adhesive and then drying it with a UV lamp. The end result looks very good, but I wonder if it does affect the screen of the phone. In case that I would like to remove the foil or replace it ... I do not know if the adhesive is "peaceful", if it leaves residual traces or I risk of having to change the touchscreen at the same time with the glass: D
I'd like to buy this: https://bit.ly/2SSQMZT (Aliexpress).
To be honest, the Spigen NeoFlex is the absolute best option in my opinion. I normally do not like these "Self-Healing" type but, it has been amazing, stays on all corners and I can continue to use my very light but very protective Spigen case as well. I normally do not like cases but the one I use is okay, especially since I have already shattered the front and rear of the phone once. Don't want to do it again.
I second this...

I've tried about 6 different tempered glass protectors, and all have either made it very difficult to pull down the top menu, or have gotten dust/lint behind the screen. Went to the Spigen NeoFlex 'film' and never looked back. In fact, I just ordered another set of them because I got polyurethane fingerprints on the screen while doing a wood railing. I had zero problems, it doesn't affect touch sensitivity. I will say that getting the sides to stay took a few minutes of work, but once stuck, it has stayed that way for 8 months so far. I paired it with a Spigen LiquidArmor case. I've dropped the phone onto my ceramic floors several times already and had no damage to the phone. I use wireless charging with no problems.
