Does the in screen finger print scanner work with a screen protector? - Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers

Plastic or tempered?

It should since it's an optical scanner. I see some of the screen protectors being advertised as fingerprint scanner friendly.

Yes it works great!

Works with plastic but not with any glass ones at moment.
Hopefully they will make some that are compatible

Can you write some links, where to get fingerprint compactible tempered glass please? (or brand name if it's jot possible) thanks

I had a tempered glass that had only adhesive around the edges, it was temperamental but worked half of the time. I took it off as it looks horrid

I could get it to work occasionally but not all the time with tempered glass so took the protector off, I wouldn't wast my money on another protector at the moment

I use the fingerprint scanner daily. No issues.

has anyone tried turning on glove mode? I know it's not the touch screen per se but maybe the setting carries over? Hope so as I am looking to a glass protector. Hopefully Dome Glass will work if they release one.

Is it just me or is there no purchase option.
I honestly tried with plastic protectors. I forgot how much I hate them lol
Is yours full glue or just glue round the edges?
And does the black bars overlap the screen or are no pixels covered at all?

You are correct, there is no purchase option. Its the manufactureres website. Its because im from Denmark, and the online store i bought it from is Danish.
Its only glue around the edges, but its surprisingly good, only a slight hint of a halo.
I mounted mine a little bit wrong, but if you take your time, and try to be very precise, there will be no overlap. The overlap on mine is tiny.
The link for the store i bought it from is here: https://www.komplett.dk/product/111...e-mobiltelefon/panzerglass-screen-protection#

Acting to mobilefun.co.uk the fingerprint scanner works and this is a full coverage tempered glass, so not case friendly. Is it if stock on mobile fun but the original manufacturer has it

The panzerglass is compatible with fingerprint sensor. Bit expensive for the quality, but works fine.

Best Screen Protector for Mate 7

I was wondering what everyone else's experience has been like with screen protectors on this handset.
I usually buy a Media Devil screen protector or a tempered glass one like on all my previous handset.
I have found that the nilken tempered glass and another non branded one had the same issue. The top of the screen protector and bottom left just don't seem to take for whatever reason and won't stick down correctly. I have tried 2 nilken and 2 of the non branded one bit had the same result everytime.
With the bad luck with tempered glass I tried these from amazon
3x Vikuiti MySafeDisplay Screen Protector DQCT130 from 3M for Huawei.. For some reason they sent me only 2? Both had alignment issues.
So after all that I am using no screen protection which is not ideal but hoping someone here can recommend a good one.

I did indeed. Usually moderators relocate the thread to accessories so it's easy to find. I looked in accessories for a thread for screen protectors couldn't find one so created it. If I had known one existed I wouldn't have wasted my time. Lol. Can you please delete this one in that case. Many Thanks.

Panzerglass is releasing their Mate 7 tempered glass protector in about a month. I contacted them.
I bought a Nillkin tempered glass and guess what, it is not sticking on the bottom left corner I have read the other tread and it seems that almost all Mate 7 has a faulty screen in the sense that they are not totally flat, which causes issues with using tempered glass.
Has anyone actually managed to apply a tempered glass wihout any problems on a Mate 7?
I ordered Stilgut tempered glass screen protector, i hope that it will be good.
Stilgut glass fit perfectly
Hi All,
Nillkin amazing h is a no-brainer. Cheap, easy to buy, hard as nails (check Youtube videos), no glue and great quality

Mocolo Glass Protector is amazing quality.
Proper cut outs for sensors as well. Rounded edges. Very clear and smooth.
Cheap in UK here
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mocolo-Pr...-Protector-Huawei-Ascend-Mate-7-/321644518879
Yeah. Ive got this one http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=321644518879&alt=web and it's all good.
I picked up the TruShield tempered glass version off amazon for my wife and my mate 7 works great.
I have tried a few tempered glass screen protector but I have the same problem with all of them. The lower left screen does not stick. I wonder whether all mate 7 has this problem or it is batch related.
I hope to bring some light regarding the glass screen protectors issues and why some they seem they don't seem to stick properly.
I purchased 5 Mate 7 in total (1 MT7-J1 / 2x MT7-TL10 / 2x MT7-L09).
All of them where having some issues with the glass screen protectors, some of them worse than the others. Usually one of the corners was not adhering properly. It is worth to notice that I tried with different brands.
The Mate 7 is not perfectly flat. If the headset is place screen down on a flat surface it will show when tapping on the corners that the phone wobbles.
In my case I gave up and I will stick with a normal one. Shame for that coz the phone otherwise is great.

Try this kind of tool.. and put it over the infected area for atleast a few hours..preferably over the night and if you are lucky.. the glue will fit..
I bougt the Nillkin without any research, it was pretty much the only glass avaiable in sweden for mate 7 (huawei have a small market share here). However, I was too fast when tried to apply it..so some dust and dirt did manage to go under the glass...so I will have to buy a new glass.. however... my phone is atleast protected now...I bought the glass protector to not make the crack in the original glass worse...
However.. I am now in the look for replacement, I am ok with 2-3 weeks delivry time... as long as it is cheap...Preferably from amazon.com
There seem to be a lot of glass protectors there, but I do not seem to find good tests where different brands are compared...
Have any people done serious research into this matter ?

This one seem to be very popular on amazon
Why do you want to buy a new glass protector? Just remove the protector from the screen, clean the dust and then put the screen protector back.
I have a nilkin tempered glass screen protector and it sticks perfectly. Didnt had any issue with it.

Factory screen protector

Have you kept it or removed? I read that the P10 lacked the oleophobic coating on the screen, is that the case with Mate 10 too or is it safe to be removed?
Also read somewhere that this is only intended as protection for transport by Huawei rather than a longer term use screen protector. Is that true?
I don't know these answers, but mine has began to lift at the camera. I treat it pretty gentle, so I'm going to replace it soon.
It does have a coating and the protector feels great. Obviously won't last forever and you will have to replace it
I remove it in order to put the glass protector,
from what i feel, it got scratch too easily, but well, its plastic after all...
i bought from china and it has SCREEN PROTECTOR with glass *NOT* sett well as a mm of thescreen is not totally set and the sreen is not totallyu covered.
I took mine off. Much better without it.
I have a glass one. Bought the phone from Beijing. But it's not totally well adjusted. The left side is all moved away. The screen glass protector falls short.
rjust FYI, someone do the test in youtube(probably xda user cmiiw??)
seems like mate 10 do have oleophobic coting if screen protector removed. anyone care to test?
link to youtube is below.

Wish I had kept mine on, tried three different tempered glass screen protectors and they suck, non fit right with the screen curving at the edges

want to check if the oleophobic coating is there or not on your unit, coz it is a deal breaker for me if it isn't there since I prefer touching the glass directly. Thanks

"oleophobic" is a word used to describe a type of material, which lacks an affinity to oils, ergo – it keeps fingerprint spots off of a glass panel.
basically after touch the screen, not too much fingerprint smudge retained. in a screen with no coating, the fingerprint will drive you crazy

Huawei Mate 10 pro oleophobic coating
Huawei Mate 10 pro has oleophobic coating on its back. You can see the later part of this video.
But the coating can be gradually removed by daily use. So i think we need a phone case.

Yes, you can apply Temper glass. The touch responsive is good after applying that.

Yes, the screen is very prone to scratches, also i would suggest to get the back laminated as well.
But doesn't this come with a screen protector pre-applied?? If anyone has taken it off... Can you tell me how it compares to a regular tempered glass screen protector?

Phone lamination is that invisible liquid coating?
That even applies to glass right? If yes then can I apply tempered on top of that?

No, not a liquid coating bro, you are confused it's nothing like that. It's an adhesived transparent plastic film which can be used to protect the outside of your phone from scratches.

Screen protector

Does the 10x Zoom come with one of those pre-attached screen protectors like the Reno does? The Oppo website only mentions it for the Reno, not the 10x Zoom. If not, I will want to order something before the phone arrives next week.
Yes, it has a screen protector.
It comes with one already installed, But the edges dont stick very well. I had to replace mine with a better one.

Question Screen Protector Recommendation ( impact Protection+Fingerprint Unlock)

Dear Community,
Received a S23Ultra and now I am on the lookout for a glass(but not limited to) screen protector which allows for working Fingerprint Unlock. I wrote Glass because i guess something like the whitestone dome would dissipate the impact forces in the glass protector, instead of transmitting it to the screen. Previously i know zagg had a impact protective Film, but now they changed their products too much, it confusing.
What is your experience ? what do you recommend ?
Thanks
My phone is due to arrive tomorrow and I'll be trying these screen protectors. I've looked through all the usual brands I'd use but the S21 was a nightmare with the fingerprint reader so I had to keep it bare in the end. So, I'm going to try these and will report back ASAP.

Thanks, i just ordered the whitestone dome tempered glass, although in the past with my s10 I had it crack in my hose pocket . Most probably will order some other, based on other ppls experience as I expect it not to hold up too long

Thanks for the tip, if that one has no issues with the touch, fingerprint. And no ugly cutout for the fingerprint area then its a good candidate
I bought this.

Can't say I am overly happy with it though. I hate screen protectors with borders around the tempered glass, which wasn't mentioned in the description.
inwas looking at that one.also but you could see the black border in the pics and I'm am.guessingnit only has glue on the outer edge. I ordered the same.brand but the one that has the UV light.

A bit of both. It also doesn't want to stay fully down for me. The edges have lifted but there is a second one in the box. The rear camera covers though are great.
I brought this one, https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004031147265.html
I previously had one from Mocolo and their glass is silky smooth, you can definately feel the difference between other brands.
It also works fine with fingerprint sensor!
So, just to update this thread with my choice at the moment. I installed this whitestone dome glass, fingerprint works after readding my fingerprints(actually worked with the saved ones from the naked glass but slower/had to press firmly) and now it works better, but still noticebly slower than without the protector. Having face unlock with this also on, i find it a good tradeoff.
Tbh , on my s10+ had the same glass and on some vacation found it crack in my jeans , so lets see how long this will last. Probably i will buy some other cheaper brands mentioned here after this first glass cracks. They have a really cool and easy installation procedure, got a nice fit. The glass has some dots to ensure an even separation from the screen glass, so i guess the impact protection is better that way given the depth which allows the forces to dissipate inside the hardened glue.
BR and thank you for sharing your choices of glass protectors with fingerprint working!
I use Zeelot. Fp working good and it's tempered glass

23ultra is more flat... i wonder if the adapter will also fit to align the screen protector. For s22u is half price cheaper than for 23ultra and i already destroy one because of dust and second in almost perfect but still some dust on the edges. I like Samsung protector as feeling with finger is almost like original gorilla glass. And it is not easy peel off on the screen edges... But i can't find anyone who already try it.
Ok I have used AmFilm for years. No issues with it sticking and fingerprint sensor worked. This year with the s23 ultra they are using different glue that doesn't stick well. Screen starts coming off for me after less than 24rs. Good product in the past terrible product now. Unless they update the glue there product this year is garbage.
On a good note I just installed the IMBZBK. Sensor working great and glue seems to be stronger. Still too early to tell but will give you guys an update after a week or so.

Actually so far the Samsung one feels great.
My Ringke lasted exactly one week before delaminating. I will install the spare but then probably move to something else.
