[Q] Screen protector that works with the curved glass? - LG Optimus 2x

Hi,
Does anyone know of a decent screen protector that will stick to and cover the curved edges of the screen. I guess it must use adhesive of some sort.
Not interested in the zagg products since I don't like the orange peel effect and the added resistance to finger gestures.
I put in a request to Wrapsol but they have no plans for producing for this model at the moment. Maybe if more people where to ask them they would? (hint hint)

Martin Fields maybe?
I doubt many screen protectors will go around the curved sides, as they'll just end up peeling.

I'm very interested in this too.
It should be a very thin and flexible screen protector to fit the curced edges.
But all Protectors I have seen so far are relatively thick and not very flexible.
If you put on a normal one, that does not sit pervectly on the edges, I bet it will collect sand and dirt at its adhesive backside, even more scatching the class...

Gorilla Glass, was confirmed by LG

Are you sure? Because i heard it was "normal" glas.

via LG Italia:
Code:
@LG_Italia
@mansell86 Confermiamo che Optimus Dual avrà Gorilla Glass e che avrà due speaker nella parte bassa del terminale.
which translates to
Code:
@LG_Italia
@ mansell86 confirm that Optimus Dual Gorilla Glass has and will have two speakers at the bottom of the terminal.

Wait 2 speakers? I thought one was the speaker and the other one was a microphone?

Yeah, on the other way that's why I'm not sure if it's really Gorilla Glass
Until I will see it on official Corning products list I won't be 100% sure

You could always test it yourself when you got it.

Hi,
It's not Gorillaglass but basically the same sort of protective glass. Just not the same brand.

Hmm that is strange I explicitly asked this of LG custcare and they assured me that it was not Gorilla glass
Code:
Geachte heer Arawac,
Graag wil ik u bedanken dat u contact heeft opgenomen met LG Electronics klantenservice.
Helaas is de LG Optimus 2x niet voorzien van Gorilla Glas, maar van een LCD scherm. De officiele lg website geeft nog geen screenprotectors aan. Na een zoekopdracht bij google worden er genoeg opties weergegeven.
Hopende u hiermee voldoende van dienst te zijn geweest, verblijf ik.
Met vriendelijke groet,
LG Customer Service
0900-543 54 54 (lokaal tarief, ma-vrij: 08.30 - 17.00)
Translates into : "Unfortunately LG Optimus 2x does not have Gorilla Glas, but an LCD screen"... LOL hahahaha
Asking for a recommended screenprotector, he answered me this:
"The official LG site does not indicate screenprotectors. After a search with Google there are enough options"
lol can you believe that ?

Then they have to do their homework better and give that link to the representive it‘s gorilla glass ;-)

So... do you guys recommend getting screen protectors anyways? Got mine today!!

I guys,

Our optimus 2x have a Gorilla Glass http://www.corninggorillaglass.com/featured-products

Hi alls, I posted this in a similar thread: Martin Fields has it in stock. I think their product may be better than Zagg.

High Quality Screen Protectors by Folix Made in Germany announced

Hi guys,
as the LG P990 display has a glas cover some of you will like the following screen protectors. I like that feeling of glas but when i scroll over it its pretty sticky and i cant scroll smooth. Thats maybe because of my fingers but ive heard that a lot.
So back to topic: Folix announced its screen protectors for the LG P990 on Amazon. My favorite for the last smartphones is the Folix Antireflex:
Amazon UK: http://www.amazon.co.uk/FoliX-FX-AN...3?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1300020661&sr=8-3
You will find Folix screen protectors on many other Amazon sites such as .fr and .de and .com by search for "folix p990".
Amazon says it will be shipped by 31. of march.
###UPDATE###
I got the Phone today and put the screen potector on it.
I CAN NOT RECOMMEND FOLIX FOR LG P990!!!
It totally doesnt fit. If you dont want to cover the front cam the screen protector is too long. See pictures.
you can place order for screen protectors here :

thats nice but how do they handle the curved glas of the optimus2x?

cant tell you yet because i just ordered it and i wont get it before 1. april (thats what amazon says). But i dont think it will be a problem.
The screen protectors on the amazon page look promising! I'll order one or 2 when they have them in stock. Lucky the optimus has a proper screen protector on it when shipped!
Okay that is kind of weird amazon just send me a mail that the screen protector is already shipped. i guess thats a mistake but well maybe they will be here by tomorrow but if so i could not test it because my pre order of the lg p990 is not out yet ... releae for germany is about this week.
please make a "review" when you have tried the protectors from amazon
mby im gonna buy one of them

+1 on the review. I'm worried that the protectors won't handle the curve too.
Today i got the Folix Antireflex screen protector. I cant test it yet because for Germany the P990 is still not released and so i dont have it yet. It should arrive this week.
I just took some pictures of the screen protector and i will show more when i have the phone.
where do you have it from? it should just release at 21.3.

IDK, could it have been your keys, loose coins, debris on a table (where you had placed the screen over it)...? Personally, I trust that glass technology has improved to the point that cracks or fractures are less likely- but scratch proof? No way. Use a screen protector from Martin Fields, Zagg, or some other reputable brand.
First thing I did was removing the screen protector.
I realy don't need it, no scrash at all.

The width of the screenprotector shows that it will stop before the curved edge of the glass, so it should fit nice, but it will not cover the entire width of the glass. It will look just like the one the phone ships with.

LG Optimus 2X is really equipped with Gorilla Glass!

Today Corning updated their site with featured devices - the O2X is there too!

I have had a O2X for a month. Actually, O2X's screen looks like a Gorilla Glass but I haven't really believed. Is it true?
And this applies to all O2X phones?
Well I guess I can rip of the "screen protector" that came preinstalled on the phone now!
Actually I would like to have confimed that the P990 has it and not just the Korean version!!! We'll probably never get that though...
for all of you that need proff, head over to this youtube video to see a daring owner put it to the test
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mt4hi_lIfmI
That was obviously the P990 model in the video.
Now I'm happy, I can let my O2X go totally commando in confidence.
ok that's indeed painfull to watch haha. i personally wouldnt remove the preapplied screenprotector. But it's nice to know the phone can handle some abuse.
screen protector just ripped of and gained a lot of confidence!
You do realise metal cannot scratch minerals(Glass)
Use some minerals and enjoy the scratches
Screen protectors are useless
Gorilla glass is a marketing trick
Using an old N82 now
Impervious to a razorblade
A tiny bit of sand
GG scratches
Always will be the same

It's mid-day & I am not drunk... I don't mean any insult but your post is very confusing.
http://anythingbutipod.com/2009/04/glass-screen-durability-test-a-lesson-on-the-mohs-hardness-scale/
Harder materials will scratch softer materials.
Basically:
Sand > Gorilla Glass > Metal > 'Standard' Glass
So if you take the 2X with you to a beach it may become scratched.
A cursory Google search brought up this: http://androidforums.com/motorola-droid/45812-has-anyone-scratched-their-gorilla-glass.html
I dont know if this ever got settled but this is what i found.

Is the camera back gorilla glass, glass, or plastic? =) Waiting for my o2x to ship. Not a biggie to me but I was just wondering.

But after 1 weekend involving alcohol, it's full of tiny and some deep scratches. No idea how they got there, but it certainly isn't scratch proof

ZAGG invisible shield screen protector video review

Hi guys, just wanted to share this video I made reviewing ZAGG's invisible sheild for the samsung galaxy ace.
Overall it is a great product, and I will highly recommend it. The only problem being that it is not a perfect fit, nevertheless it feels great and it is one of the few that offers a complete protection to the front, the back and the sides.
It only retails for $15 if you only want the screen cover, and $25 if you want the full body.
You can purchase the product in their website: http://www.zagg.com/
I searched google and many users complain about the resistive touch effect of the shield..What can you say about that?..

I used XPEL "Ultimate" film which isn't too glossy, but they do make a "Stealth" film which is matte. Find a local dealer to you and see if they will give you a small chunk or maybe even put it on your phone for you.
You could try illumshield screen protectors comes in pack of 3. Has individual cutouts for camera, sensors and speaker for $4......amazon
Question, are there any perfect cut out screen protector for the G2's curved glass? I find most that are made too big and the edges doesn't stick to the glass due to the curved areas of the G2...

The G2 doesn't have curved glass? Or well at least mine doesn't.
I'm using an Xtreme Guard protector and it's working fine for me.
You can try the Tempered glasses
I use the Zaggs, just enough texture to be easy on the finger, crystal clear, and they're applied wet, so it's fairly easy to get them on right and squeegie out any bubbles or dust particles, which is very hard with the dry-apply ones.
Of course, if you're nervous about wetting down your screen, you might not want to try it.
THe Zagg originals are not really "glossy"...those are the ones that are hard to use, they're TOO smooth, causing too much resistance to your finger sliding. Zaggs are "clear" rather than glossy: there's a slight texture to them, enough to ditch the gloss, but not enough to affect the sharpness or color saturation.
They also look ugly as hell until they dry, but give it 24 hours before panicking. It's worth it.
This one is awesome: http://www.amazon.com/iloome-Screen...0F4AT5Q6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1389534473&sr

Anyway I will decide which is better for me after I will try also Panzer Glass.

Hello,thanks for your message.
Mi 3 have no gorilla glass.
Thanks
Yours Sincerely,

XiaomiShop Team
so yeah no gorilla glass.... atleast they say. and they confirmed that it has the msm8274ab cpu. but then again no gorilla glass okay but the screen is hard? i had a lg l9 and the screen was just flexible plastic. it fell once on a little stone and the lcd broke, and touchscreen not i mean i could press on the lcd without any pressure. realy bad. the xiaomi mi3 atleast has a HARD screen i hope no flex/cheap plastic
I'm pretty sure that it has gorilla glass 3. I've got it since february without any case and the screen is perfect. If it fell in a stone, you can say goodbye to the glass, but is the same with every smartphone, you must be careful.
i think there is a different between scratch resistant and shatter proof, and gorilla glass 3 is a scratch resistant.
Maybe not gorilla glass but something els.
But the screen is good? I mean its hard just Like gorilla glass?
And my lg L9 slipt out of my hands and fell on a rock. Little one but for that cheap plastic screen was enough to bend and touch the lcd and break it. I was choqued cause the the tou hscreen didnt break more (it already broke how dont know it was standing up on the ground and sliped and fell on the screen and broke the touchscreen. I was like wtf how. It was already on the ground didnt fall. Just sliped on the screen and broke the rouchscreen.
Bref bad experiancs with that cheap lg phone.

The glass broke from 1 cm fall.....
And the lcd broke 2 weeks later from a drop out of my hand to a stone. Normaly u would say the glass break nooo the LG isnt glass its plastic so it didnt break but flexed and broke the lcd... fricking dumb cheap phone
I think xiaomi doesnt use Gorilla Glass 3 anymore, they use Dragontrail glass.
