Be careful cleaning the back camera lens. It scratches very easily. I had some sticky spots on my lens and used my finger nail to remove it and I scratched my lens. Really? They couldn't choose a softer/cheaper material? Please no lectures that I used a finger nail. If it would have been glass it shouldn't have been a problem.
Going for a raised case now, mines scratched up as well. It's pretty minimal, doesn't seem to affect quality at all so that's good

I saw an article where a person scratched a DSLR lens and it took shots just as clear as the new lens, They are close enough to the sensor and stuff that the scratch had no impact on the image. You have to REALLY scratch it or scratch REALLY deep for it to show up.
I feel your pain, I paid £62 for a n new unibody because the repair centre scratched my lense and couldn't prove it was done by them, so I get my phone back and the lense is kind of misty but no scratches, I think is an anti glare coating that actually gets scratched, if you look at the lense cover in daylight you will see it doesn't look very glossy, im sure its glass(could be wrong) its just that damn coating, it should be on the inside unless it on both because they were dipped to apply it.The onex is glass but theres no coating on it, its just plain glass.

It probably doesn't matter. It scratches very easily and the protruding camera doesn't make it better So far I don't see a difference in photo quality.
It's definitely glass. I've been scratching it with my nail all day, no marks.
I smell something though.
Odp: Camera cover is plastic ;-(

You really have to be bored All day only scratching?
Apart of this... Who cares whats the material tht lens cover is made of ... It scratches anyway.

Quartz will scratch glass no matter how many gorillas it's made of. Sand is basically quartz. So if you have a speck of sand/dirt under your fingernail or in the ridges of your finger, you can potentially scratch pretty much anything up.
possible fix?
hey guys,
do you think applying Polywatch on the camera lens will fix those annoying scratches?

no, Polywatch works on plastic lenses..
I assume that the camera lens of our phone is not glass because it does scratch very easily..
To me, it looks like the camera lens is made out of some sort of plastic..
can anyone confirm this?

i believe it is glass, many people here also seem to think so
the cover is very obviously not glass. I don't know how anyone could think that it is

Whats being scratched is an anti glare coating, there isn't one on the onex, its just clear glass, if you put both phones together the onex+ as a purply coating, this is very easy to rub of and scratch.
I think it is replaceable. I have a back cover you can have if you want to try pulling it off and replacing it.

Why would HTC give the onex glass and the newer updated version(onex+) plastic, doesn't make sense, I myself am not going to attempt to prove whether its glass or plastic, I still think its glass though.
Hello,
I found this chinees screen protector at local store in my country , i googled it and found some good reviews and just one video
https://youtu.be/3fearnGMwfE
From the video and what the company said , it's GREAT
No lifting edges and all cases friendly.
But when it comes to real world?
Anyone tried it?
Looks great but no links where to get it. Anyone have a link?
anyone?

Running it right now. It is in the US by ringke as invisible defender. Does a good job. A little orange peel effect but smooth and clear. You can find it on Amazon

Yes, it is the same. Not as clear as glass IMO.
Looks like healing screen protector. If so i am using. It protects scratches but not falls.

thanks a lot.
lets say it's 75% less clear than the glass for example?
and what about the sensitivity experience? the protector manufacturer said that it's the same as the stock screen feeling, do you think it's true?

it protects the phone from Everything .. from what i saw at the videos i can run over it by a tank!
Using now for my s8, had beem using x-one since s6e → note 7 → mate 9 → s8. For the shock resistance and protection is good. But for this time, it cannot cover 4 corner of the screen, as u saw in the video, feel a bit danger.

Do you have a specific nanotech product in mind?
I am assuming you mean one of the liquid screen protector ones?

I wuold like to try the liquid screen protector
it has some advantages of tpu (perfect fit)
and glass(5 hardness) and shock protection
I don't know if this qualifies:
http://www.iqshield.com/iq31288-htc-u11-phone-screen-protector.html
but it works like a charm (although I am extra extra careful & protective with my U11 Solar-Red beauty) - no smudge or fingerprint marks either compared to plastic screen protecters.
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

follow up question will be is it easy to removed?
good coating should allow your phone looks clean after quick wipe with clothes or tissue., does your phone do the same?

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.
Does this phone requires lens cover. I have just bought this phone don't want to see any scratches on camera..any suggestions?

Well the camera module protrudes out a bit, so consider a cover which is thick enough to cover this projection..
I don't use any lens cover, just have some case which provide extra camera protection
Pretty much every single lens cover out there is made out of poor quality glass, so I would advise against using one because it will tamper with your camera performance. It can cause unnecessary distortions and reflections.
