[REVIEW] Tempered glass: Nillkin 3D CP+ MAX/XD CP+ MAX & IBY Wind - Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories

[ Nillkin 3D CP+ MAX ]
I've decided to get this screen protector as their cases are great. They have multiple styles, but i've decided to get the most expensive one because why not
So far:
- the finger print sensor still recognized my prints and is still fast, i have rescanned them anyways.
- the glass is curved and because it adds a thickness, it mades the gestures easier with my case that as lips on the front.
- the notification light is less visible as it's now 3mm below the black glass and the cutout is narrow
- the glass seems to retain prints and grease more but it's easy to wipe the screen.
UPDATE : Dust is getting inside the screen protector where the camera is, so your selfies are unusable, its a big drawback, i have cleaned it 2 times and placed it correctly but dust is still comming. I suggest getting a screen protector with a camera cutout.
[ IBY Wind Tempered glass ]
Their website were giving giving them free to review it, so here's my review ?
It comes with a plastic frame to ease the installation of the screen protector. There are 2 screens in the box.
The installation was the fastest I've done. No dust, no air bubble.
The screen does not cover all the front of the phone and the corners don't have the same radius as the display radius, so it's not very elegant.
Now the bad : the glass is foggy and grainy, not clear at all. It makes the display looks like from a budget phone from 2010
I don't recommend it.
Oh, and it comes with a skin for the back, which is great.
UPDATE : it's unreadable in sunlight because of the grain and rainbow effect...

[ Nillkin XD CP+ MAX ]
My last acquisition, and hope the last one..
It has all the goods of the 3D CP+ max but with the flaws fixed: the notification led and front camera are no more under the glass :good:
I really like the curved borders, they make the navigation gestures easier.

I actually prefer the H+pro Nillkin tempered glass . CP+ is nice i just prefer the H+...cant go wrong with either

Nice! I got myself the Nilkin H+ Pro which doesn't fully cover the front screen. Mine cracked already in just two drops
One question, does the stock casing still fits?

Mine is XD cp+ MAX. Btw my tempered glass a little bit more to right side. I saw from my front camera. Can i remake it again? Already 1 week

I've had a similar screen protector for my Mi A2, when using the front camera, lens flares appeared when the light was comming from an angle, black borders negate that, and it looks like i have no screen protector, as it match perfectly with the black bezels of the phone.

I don't know, but heating it a bit with a blow dryer before removing it can help i guess;

Do you know if it fits with the spigen case?

I adjusted the glass a couple of times but the exact same problem kept happening, even with perfect application.

I am using Nillkin XD CP+ Max, and has a hole so it doesnt cover front camera. And the led notif space is larger.
Up to 1 hour after applying tempered glass, you can still readjust it or remove the dust inside glass with its dust removal paper or duct tape. So check carefully if you get new ones..

You do not seem to understand what that product is.
But it does not work, I tried a few of those aftermarket oleophobic coatings and liquid protectors, they are kind of crap.

What do you say about this glass ...? It has a recommended cutout, including an installation adapter.

Best full coverage tempered glass screen protectors?

Hi all,
I'm looking for a good glass screen protector that covers the whole screen (usually they are ones with a black or white border), but I'm really struggling to find good makes. I tried a protector from LK, but the glass was pretty cloudy and had a 'rainbow' effect raising our from the centre of the protector, it also turned out to be a disaster to remove, with the strong adhesive leaving adhesive marks and shattered glass as I tried to remove it!
Anyone else had any experience with other protectors and could make a recommendation?
I tried the 2 from Nillkin, but only one had full coverage with black edges. The glass was fine, but the edges looked cheap and tacky.
There is a video of full screen glass on YT and the guy that posted the video has posted videos here (unofficial Huawei), but he's just a shill and has no interest in answering questions, just promoting products.

I use Mofis tempered glass (full coverage). It's working like a charm.

He called Jozinek in this forum.
---------- Post added at 11:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 AM ----------
A friend of mine got this brand, he got it from china, it's called called smartdevil, although it's only a OEM brand, anyway, it includes a frame for accurate placement of the protector, full coverage glass protector with about 1/2mm rim to accommodate a case, liquid filler to fill up the sids rim.
no link will be provided unless you intend to flight to china to buy it, just to let you know they are available so may be some searching you can find it online or similar item since it's only a oem product.
I also had a horrible experience with the LK screen protector. Rainbow effect in the middle and really annoying adhesive at the top and bottom. The transparent screen itself was also not very clear.
I then switched to an OMOTON brand one and it is amazing! Fingerprint and smudge resistant. Fits perfectly, full coverage across the screen. Looks sturdy. Cutouts perfect. Only downside is that it ends a bit short at the top and bottom, so still exposed there unless you use a case with a lip.
Avoid LK, and give the OMOTON one a try.

Glad I'm not the only one with a bad experience with LK. Looks like the transparent Omoton protectors that don't cover the full screen are easy enough to find, but I'm struggling to find the full coverage one where did you get yours from?

I got my OMOTON screen protector from Amazon (prime delivery - fulfilled by Amazon). You're right, it isn't full coverage (smaller than LK's one). But its close enough to full coverage if you have a tpu case that has a good lip.
Yesterday I got my Omoton tempered glass (Amazon.co.uk), and I am dissatisfied - the glass does not fit properly on the display (air space on both sides)...
This is Nillkin's. Similar size* but adheres perfectly (sorry for crap picture).
I also tried their 3D version (full screen) but it makes the phone look very cheap.
*Actually the Omoton looks wider.

What was it about the 3D version you felt looked cheap? Was it easy to remove the screen protector?
Right now I'm using the GhostShield by TechGear. They are relatively cheap and difficult to install, but after watching a video on installing them, it was a little easier. They are extremely thin - almost invisible and are self healing, but any dust caught under the protector will result in a bumpy surface. I'm also not entirely sure how great the protection is they offer. My Ringke Fusion case started lifting the to corners of the protector, but I think I stretched the protector (really easy to do with a membrane protector this thin!) slightly as I tried to get the bubbles off the surface.
Still looking for the best solution to protect my screen...

The plastic borders. It was very easy to remove as the plastic borders don't really have much in the way of adhesive.
I will try a Cafele next, when I can be bothered to order one.
Just got both of these two delivered from www.taobao.cn
first one is a anti blue ray with installation frame for exact right positioning and liquid filler for those air gaps along the edges of the protector, the second one is a normal tempered glass protector as a two piece package with the same accessories.

Could you share full link, please? Would like to buy one for mom Thank you
I got Omoton full coverage tempered glass but i am afraid its not compatible with silicone cases? It is good screen protector but sadly not ideal for cases.
It looks like cases lift screen protector on edges slightly so air gets underneath... Any good screen protectors that are not full coverage so i can still use case?
I bought the nilkin glas but the black borders around the screen protector takes a lot of screen space, I don't recommend it!

Benks have a really good one, it's a full coverage with white or black boarder (adhesive covers throughout the whole glass, not just the edges), just like those on the iphone, it curves and cover the edges.
Benks have two version, KR PRO this is also full coverage, glass & plastic sided and XPro+ full glass coverage.
I am using the Benks XPro+ full glass cover and I think it's great. It's a 3D glass screen protector, covers the screen perfectly, right to the edges, with no air bubles. Also it has an oleophobic coating.

CASEBASE tempered glass 0.24mm

I've recently purchased some black glass screen protectors from CASEBASE.
Fitment is perfect no issues for me.
I do believe they are thinner than others or at least 1 of the thinnest.
They are £6.99 for 2 on ebay.
Just giving you the heads up to protect your op5's
If you found this useful tap thanks
Managed to take some photos on a budget tablet (sorry if pictures are not very good quality)
Looks good.
Can't believe the screen protector supplied with my OP5 is shows signs of peeling. I haven't even taken it out of the box yet!

Wow that's terrible!
No peeling on this what so ever and it seems to fill the screen more than that 1.
I've never applied a tempered glass before. Easy enough?
I remember trying to apply a screen protector to my LG G2 once, such a nightmare, to avoid those little air bubbles.... lol.

Mine is exactly the same with a slight lift along the bottom edge of the screen. The 3T I had briefly was much worse as the lift was top and bottom.
It's the curse of the 2.5D screen and a slightly misaligned or badly sized protector.

Yep, I guessed that.
The protector on my OP3 thought it still firmly in place. No lifting anywhere.

No I've not noticed any loss of screen none that I'm aware off as I make sure the screen is lit up when I'm installing it.
There's certainly no lift it fits perfect.
Hopefully some other buyers will be able to give there opinion on it too soon.
Hello,
there is glue just on the black side of the glass or everywhere (even in the middle) ?
Beside when you look at your phone with a white background, is there some oil effect ?
I got a glass from Orzly and i got all those issues...

Do you find the screen hard to see in sunlight with this protector on? I seem to struggle to see and brightness is on full. Also I have started to see some bleed on the edges. Do you think the CASEBASE is exactly the same as orzly ? As if orzly is better I might purchase that.

No, there will be not. Okay well if they change adhesive/glue type.
Working thing would need to entire tgsp be adhesive. Or maybe Whitestone style, they have somekind of different glue system which you dry with UV lamp.
But really oil slick comes because glass is just touching screen part thanks to glue on the sides only. So it leaves really small gap between tgsp and glass and if you havent cleaned your screen like some sort un-humam/robot which is really impossible, there will be oil slick.. Maybe not right after you have installed it but soon. Some manufacters (like Orzly) makes "dots" to prevent oil slick. It basically lift really really littlebit tgsp from phone's glass surface so tgsp wouldnt touch screen surface. But then people are crying about visible annoying dots on tgsp.
Thats why Oneplus official tgsp is adhesive from entire glass. But because of OP3/3T/5 style (glass starts bending before screen ends) they needed to cut about 0.4mm from both side with protectors black borders to not produce halo.
So none of methods what different manufacter use, isnt good enough...
Oh i forgot ones without black borders. Either they will end before screen ends or they will cover entire screen but leaves on sides.

They had the matrix dots on the CASEBASE but they don't seem to help the rainbow affect. Whitestone is the way to go I was tempted to get that kit for my s8+ but I found a protector that worked for the s8 even with its big curve.
I'm very surprised there isn't any perfect 1s for oneplus 5. The CASEBASE is close but not quite there. Fitment in it is good.
I think I'll end up with some tpu on it ?

Yeah dots should theoretically help on oil slick and prevent them but it wont delete those entirely and my personal opinion is that it wont help at all.
Orzly's last year model for 3/3T had also dots and oil slick so im not confident that it would be better for this They still have dots, thats what i know for sure

What company the tempered glass is of?

Protector for camera bump?

Is anyone planning on putting extra glass over the cameras? This shouldn't effect the photo quality or AF, right? Any recommended brands out there? Or are you just relying on the raised bezel for whatever case your're using to protect the camera array?
I'll only protect mine with a ringke case, although I'm worried about possible scratches in the future.
The usual go to case for my phones, Spigen Tough Armor, this time comes with only a thin lip over the camera lens and screen. There is like a 0.1mm clearance once I installed dbrand camera skin. I am disappointed in the casing. The past 2 series (Samsung Note 10+ and iPhone 11 Pro Max) had thick camera lens clearance (almost like 0.5cm).
im worried that it may screw up the TOF sensor or somehow mess with the quality of the pics...
anyone have experience on previous phones?
I protect my camera lens with the gadgetshieldz skin or camera protector, The camera protector protects my camera lens from scratches.
I have a dbrand skin on it that covers everything but the actual surface needed for pictures. Don't think I need more than that. Also after watching all the drop test the camera is the last thing that will break or stop working.
They have "tempered glass" screen protectors on Amazon for preorder. There is a hole cut out for the flash and mic. I know it's not quite the same but I've had a tempered glass screen protector on my gropro without any issues.
The camera glass is so big on the s20 ultra, it feels like it needs a screen protector. For $10 on Amazon it might be worth trying out.

Yeah I rock my phones ceaseless but have the entire back with dbrand and a dome shield on the screen. I feel really good about the look and feel of my device.
Just applied the tempered glass screen protector for my phone. It looks good without flash. But when I use the flash, the shot looks hazy. This is going to be a no go for the tempered glass screen protector. See the picture I attached.

Be best if someone did a glass lens cover that had cutouts for every camera / sensor - rather than risking performance issues by covering them.
Does anyone know of an option like this? - All the ones I can see only have the cutout the for the flash or flash and TOF .. but not the cameras.
Other option is to use a transparent skin i suppose..

I've got a Mocolo 9H hardness lens protector, works perfectly
I found this and installed it to get a little extra protection for the Camera Glass - the fit is good - installs easy and I have not noticed any issues when using the Flash. It does require that youi carefully place the screen protector on the camera bump (glass) lining up the holes correctly - but they do give you four screen protectors if the first attempt doesn't work.

Question What screen protector and back cover shall I get for my S22?

As the Samsung screen protectors are just plastic ones, I need a real protector and back cover!
Check Amazon. There is a lot to choose from. If you stick to a known brand you should be OK. I had my case and glass screen protector before I received my phone. I got a clear plastic case so I can see the color of my green phone. I have been using similar cases for years without any issues. This is the first time in a long time I got to use a tempered glass screen protector. My last few phones had curved screens and the glass really didn't fit properly.

I'd recommend you a film screen guard from Gadgetshieldz which is not plastic, it is made from nano polymer as I saw on their website. This protector can self-heal so you can get this instead of the plastic ones.
I got the amfilm 2 pack OneTouch tempered glass screen protector. Turned on increased sensitivity, re-registered my fingerprints and it seems fine.
When applying it, press from the bottom where the fp sensor is, it might help.
I went with amFilm HD Clear Hybrid Screen Protector. Its a 2 pack and also comes with 2 camera protectors as well. I didnt use them, but the screen protector looks flawless.
I read too many issues with glass protectors, so while I ordered one, it will stay put away for now.

Thanks for the info, I've ordered one for my S22 Plus and I think it'll get delivered after I get the phone!
I'm going to try the Samsung screen protector (it's cheap and on offer!).
My S20 came with a screen protector already installed, and I discovered, by an accidental drop onto a brick corner, that it does a decent self-healing job. The brick gouged right in the middle of the screen, making a rough raised welt. I thought I'd have to replace it, but after a day it had flattened out, closed up, and become much less noticeable. It's still visible, but it's smooth and looks more like a small chip than a deep gouge.

But the Samsung screen protectors are plastic and it scratches a lot and blurs the display in less than 6 months!!!

The one on my S20 has lasted pretty well for 2 years, so that's not a problem for my usage. I don't want a glass one that can shatter or crack when damaged.

Yes, the glass protector shatters and it is frustrating! and my usage is high so I'll get so many scratches. As clairlara said in the discussion I ordered this Gadgetshieldz film screen protector and it can really self-heal the scratches that occur on it as she said and I like this instead of a plastic protector! check it out,

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.

Hello, You are not too satisfied because of the borders or the sensitivity of the fingerprint?

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.

I installed the Samsung one. It's plastic not glass. It's fine. Hardly notice it.
I had previously installed a glass one, but I prefer the Samsung one.

Problem with film protector is that it is not very smooth hence hindering playing game which require quick and precise swiping (rhythm game)

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.
