[Q] Focus Screen Protector Recommendations - Focus Accessories

Would like to go with the Lexerd but only the Anti-glare version is available on Amazon... any idea when the Crystal Clear version is available?
There is the one made by Amzer; yet reviews are not great. Any other options?

ATT is selling full body (front and back only) screen protectors from InvisibleShield.

But Zagg doesn't list them as available on their web site yet. I'm not as interested in a screen protector as I am having Zagg cover the back of my phone. Their product is great. I like the gripping feel of it. The screen of the focus is Gorilla Glass so that why I'm not going to cover it.

Do you have a reference link to the Focus being built with Gorilla Glass?

Att has a zagg shield thats a dry install and is pretty nice. Its not as grippy as the wet but feel similar.

I installed the InvisibleShield on my Focus. I really like the matte finish on the back. I took it to the booth in the mall and had the invisibleshield guy install it for me for free (usually like $7, i think.) Just FYI, it may be a dry protector, but you can still install it as if it were wet.

No one would be happier than I if that is true.
However, I am suspicious that the tweet is the only reference to it.

This came straight from the Corning webpage:
"Corning’s Gorilla glass has been designed into more than 240 models by 24 major brands. Due to customer agreements the following list is only a sampling."
They could just be slow at updating their site... at least lets hope so lol.

That would be a great surprise. I've hated screen protectors since the first Palm.

I like it, I'm just not sure that I *trust* it . I've got several buddies with iPhone 4, at least 3 of whom have scratches on their screens

Scratch
Well then I have a defective screen because I have a scratch

I'd feel better with a protector on it myself.
I was looking at the Skinomi. Has anyone used them before? Most of the reviews on other phones seem mostly positive. They have both a screen protector and a full body protector.

Mine should be here any day now. I got the full phone covering. I'll report back...

Zagg is now supporting the Focus...
http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield...es-screen-protectors-covers-skins-shields.php
I've used Zagg on my last 2 phones and highly recommend it. It is really great stuff. You can argue that you don't need this with the Focus screen, but if you still want one, I would go with Zagg. The most important thing is to follow the installation instructions exactly.
My recommendation is NOT buy the Full Body coverage... just get the Screen Coverage. Get a nice case instead. Zagg can (not always) start peeling very slightly on the edges from repeated rubbing with your hand. I've seen this happen on 2 of my friends phones who had full body coverage. The good thing is, Zagg will send you out a new one free, no questions asked (you do have to pay shipping though). They are pretty good about it. Also, if you don't like it, it is removable.

I went ahead and ordered the Zagg. 14.99 isn't bad even with the 2.99 shipping. I don't feel comfortable until I get something to protect this screen.

I got the Skinomi. I followed the instructions and still ended up with a lot of bubbles\wrinkles. Also I'm not sure that the "full body" skin is even needed. I certainly can't see how the side pieces are supposed to fit around the buttons and headphone jack anyway.
I give this product a huge thumbs down. A waste of $20.

Thank you for the heads up. I ordered the Invisibleshield instead. Hopefully, this will fit the bill.

this is priced modest 3.99$, best bang for the buck.
can also be bought from www.xtremeguard.com
And for those want premium protection
ZAGG invisibleSHIELD™
No images are there in the site but they costs 24.99$ for all round protection.
Skinomi TechSkin™
these costs 19.95$
and offers good protection.
BodyGuardz UltraTough® Clear Skins
they costs $24.95 though provides precision cutting and quality and also two full sets are given.
PhantomSkinz
They also costs the same 24.95$ reviews yet to be seen...
i am also waiting for other manufacturers such as bestskinsever to roll out. Note 2 lovers please post your suggestions and user reviews of full cover screen guardsalso from other manufacturers so that i can add it to OP:good::victory:
Halleluja! ZAGG has done it again Last week i was looking at there Site withour success but at least they finally brought out there Shield for my loved Note2! It's as good as ordered Thanks for the hint!
Just on the screen protection part. In my experience the Xtremeguard quality was less than stellar. I've tried a few wet application urethane manufacturers and found the Xoskins were excellent with good customer support, but they are more expensive.

I did acknowledge that, but my point stands, I've had full body from Xtremeguards (various products) and I wouldn't buy from them again. Too many faults, poor fit, indents/marks/creases on protector, black dot contamination, guards fused together, leaking bottles in shipping and trimming slivers on edges. To name what I can remember off hand.
Bodyguardz have also released a duo pack. €25 for 2 complete body shields. They are very mich like zagg. I used their skin for my ipad 3. No complains!!

I'm thinking, why cover the back? If I scratch it 'that' badly, I'll buy a new back. Maybe even a new color for fun!
I'll probably get a screen protector. I had a Steinheil Crystal Clear on my OG EVO for over a year. When I removed the protector, it was still clear. I can't say that about the previous screen protector, which was yellowed after 1+ years of use.

Maybe you could buy a new back cover, but original ones with nfc should be expensive....
And always the chances are that you aint gonna it that bad are slim and when you admire the beast that small scratch would really be hurting...
I'm not a big fan of these on the Note or Note 2. The pen isn't as precise...
I used to use these skins though on my non touchscreen phones in the past.

Garbage compared to a tempered glass protector. Trust me get the glass and u'll be happy
That's a poor reflection on XtremeGuard. Most plastic protectors are not as good as tempered glass ones.
I can vouch for XtremeGuard's full body protection. I had the rear protector which is a wet install product. It was top notch to be fair, easily as good as bigger more expensive brands like Zagg. I only removed it as I got a good deal on a SlickWraps matte feel rear protector.
For the money, XtremeGuard always offering high discount, you can't go wrong.

Agreed, but some people don't want a tempered glass protector.
I for one LOVED the feel of my xtremeguard. I actually dropped something right on the screen of my phone (a large lithium ion battery) and it make a giant nick on surface.
I was filling out the forms for getting my phone replaced via HTC Advantage, and at the last moment before submitting I decided to just peel off the protector and see how badly the glass was damaged, since I was returning it anyway.
Turns out the ding looked like it went through on the glass, but it was entirely on the screen protector!
Saved my phone! I had the full body, and I loved the feel of the gloss back. It made it just sticky enough to be easier to grip and didn't spoil the look of the phone at all. Fantastic, and for the price? it's a complete no brainer. Last time they had this sale I bought five, and I don't regret buying that many at all. It's amazing.
Wow thanks for the post. Been looking for a screen protector. I ordered their tempered glass and the full body wrap (Just in case I dont like one or the other) for a total of $7.65 shipped! Glad I didn't spend 2-3x that last week Cheers
I have used xtremeguard now for the second time (first time was on a phone I had to get replaced due to a defect)...I personally use it for the protection between the phone and any case I install...I work in a dusty environment and it really helps protect from stuff rubbing into the aluminum body and scratching it...awesome product.

Great idea, thanks. Going to use the back from the full body protector (under my case), and the tempered on the front!
Have the glass protector on my phone right now. Feels just like the GLAS.t on my Note 3. Tried taking a key and knife to it, and it left no scratches. Granted I did not press down super hard, but enough to simulate something more than normal. Would recommend especially with their massive discounts.
I have their wet install screen protector on now and have had it since I got the phone. Works good, just like any other wet install screen protector. I have tried alot of different ones, and they are all about the same to me.
Here's a video of it on the device
Got it on mine. Doesn't smear, applies easy and looks invisible. Top notch especially for the price. (I got them on the 90% offer)

Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Tempered Glass Screen Protectors

Im a fan of totally clear tempered glass screen protectors, but all too often they have colouring on them.
One seller I've seen on ebay who is doing a completely clear one:

One with coloured parts on Amazon UK:

I contacted Whitestone. They said the domed glass should be released early September so we could have them before the release date (If the release date is actually Sept 15th).
I really like it on my S8+. A little thick, but no lack of responsiveness. Only other complaint is that dusk collects along the edge of it.
I will be waiting a bit before ordering one
Going with this one for now: https://www.amazon.com/Protector-Co...83391&sr=8-3&keywords=note+8+screen+protector
I have had pretty good luck with this company for a while.
I'd try out the tempered glass protectors but not for retail price. Hopefully they do better than what is available for the S8+.

I havent been able to find a glass screen protector that would work with a case. The other problem is that these screen protectors only stick to the edges of the phone.... If there was a flat screen option I would have bought that..............
Yes, I'm worried about using a tempered glass screen and a case.

I saw that, they say due in stock in 3 to 5 days. I guess they ship from the UK though, because they said shipping to the US takes 10 to 14 days.
I'm hoping Amazon will get them in at the same time Mobile Fun does. Then I should have it in two days
Does anybody have a recommendation for a relatively inexpensive, but potentially "good" case-friendly glass screen protector?
Obviously, with nobody yet having the devices themselves, it's going to be difficult to assess whether fit, etc, is good, but if anybody has experience of a brand/manufacturer that has done good things on other devices with non-flat screens, then that could be useful to know - I don't plan to use my Note 8 without some protection, and I've always found plastic protectors to be poor with regard to feel and their oleophobic properties, and often attract dust.
I'm thinking I'll get something that will more than likely be cheap, but reasonably performing, until such time as there are reviews of different protector models with experience of being used on the Note 8 before committing myself to a bigger purchase, such as a Zagg or a Whitestone.
I think the only logical screen protector will be those ones that are similar to paint protection film applied on cars. I put one on my wifes S8, didnt look too bad, Used a bit of heat from the hairdryer.

Plastic protectors seem to fall into two categories; stretchy "military grade" stuff which can be a bit "orange peely" and grippy to the touch, and a film which seems to offer less protection, but suffer from finger prints.
Best plastic I've seen is the iCarez on the Note 4, which gave good protection and feel, but was a bit of a dust magnet.
I'll be getting a Skinomi Tech Glass tempered screen protector when they're available. Had them on the Note 2 and Note 5 and on the Tab S 8.4. Haven't disappointed me yet.
Tempered glasses don't fit right on curved edges and you have to touch screen harder for it to respond

Just received the WhiteStone Dome for my Samsung Galaxy Note 8!
I will be installing it and letting you all know what it's like here, so make sure you check back!
Comment if you have any questions or have any other suggestions for screen protectors for the Note 8!
I will be using the following video to guide me on application: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SKgpYrNoAQ
And shout out to GravX reviews! This video helped me to decide which protector to get: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diHQD_wophc&t=382s
Definitely interested in this one, so keep us posted on how your install goes. Also how's the fit with a case on it?

I ordered mine the end of last week. It was shipped USPS so might be here today or a week from Friday
I'd love to know if this will work with Ringke cases.
This screen protector looks promising

I've seen a review that indicates that it won't, and from looking at the Ringke Onyx I have, I can understand why that might be. I've got a cheap TGSP that won't fit through the front of the aperture of the Onyx which implies that it comes around the front of the phone too much (I don't have my phone yet, so I can't be 100% sure). However, I also have the Ringke Slim, and the protector drops through the front of that no problem, so I think it will be fine with that case, and am hoping that the Whitestone will be the same..

Yeah, I've seen one mention of the Bezel style not working. I have the fusion and Onyx, and I'm not really willing to use a different case brand because I make use of the lanyard loop.

The Ringke Slim has the lanyard loop, but probably doesn't quite offer the same level of drop protection that the TPU cases do.

There is a video on YouTube that tells you which cases work and don't with Dome Glass.

Yeah, unfortunately, they don't go over the other Ringke cases.

They did test one and it was not compatible. Ringke Bevel is the one they tested.
Here is the case I went with that is compatible.

Ive said this before and I will say it again, the only screen protectors that will give us curved screen users some satisfaction will be the old skool wet apply ones, even those need a little assistance with a hairdryer to get the edges to adhere.

Yes, they provide better edge to edge coverage on a curved screen but I'm never going back to PET screen protectors. I don't like the "orange peel" look and feel. They also tend to lift over time. Worst part is they provide very little protection in case of a drop on the screen At least the glass ones take the brunt of a face first fall. I've had a few glass protectors crack when dropped but I have yet to crack a screen with a glass protector on.

Id rather be looking at a pile of dog poo than one of those curved glass screen protectors on my screen. I will be more than happy to use the plastic rubbish wet applied rubbish than those.
