Screen protectors - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi guys, what screen protectors do you use? i just bought the sgp ultra crystal is it any good?

I've always used Brando - but recently i got SafeScreen which is half the price - and i haven't noticed any differences between them. Never tried SGP though. For Xperia Z i'll probably use the one that Sony bundled with the phone - or whichever brand releases one for both front and back of the phone.

I was thinking this too - the Xperia Z, like other Xperias, ships with a pre-fitted screen protector. I'd like one for the back too though, to keep it looking pristine.

It has this pre-fitted protector on both front and back. There's additional screen protector bundled in the box so you can apply it on the screen to keep it double-protected, from shattering and scratches.

So does xz need another display shield? Isn't enough the one it has from sony?

The one applied by Sony is supposed to protect your device from shattering if you happen to break the display. It holds pieces of broken glass togethes. But it is a plastic screen protector - so it will get scratched after a while, so you can either apply a second more scratch-resistant one ( recommended by Sony as it gives you both type of protection ) on top of it - or use the phone as is, and just remove the pre-fitted one should it get scratched badly and replace it with a new one.

I didn't know the phone came bundled with a screen protector, i've just ordered myself a cheapo hybrid hardcase from the Bay, comes with a screen protector as well, so i should be well covered in any eventuality.
I still have a pack of Crystalusion Liquid Glass protector that i haven't had the bottle to try out on my One X yet.

It would be very nice if Sony could sell only its original screen shields to replace the scratched one

Are there waterproof screen protectors? Quite apprehensive of getting one and ending up removing it due to washing the Z, etc

That might be impossible since they're most likely applied using high temperature - like car's windshield.

Does the XZ come with anything on the back? If not, then does anyone know where I could get a rear protector, not a case or anything as I'll be using the dock, and can't find anything on Amazon.

I read on one of the reviews that the anti-shatter screen protector which is already fitted is near enough impossible to remove, plus if you do manage to get it off then so does the Sony badge :-\
So I won't be removing mine but will probably buy a Zagg HD screen protector, had one on my S3 and it was soo much better than the standard one they do!

That was true for CES demo units - they printed Sony logo on the film and not on the glass. In retail units, Sony / Xperia logos are below the glass so removing the film will not take them away.

Oh ok, though the Spanish review I read last week had a retail version and in there it stated that, can you provide information on where you got your info from pls?

I heard that sony applies screen protectors to their phones. Does anyone know if the xperia Z will ship with a pre-applied front and back protector?
If so, what would be the need to put on a third party screen protector?
I pre-ordered from handtech.uk to New York ... well lets hoping it will have the protectors already on by Sony.

Safesearch is a great screen protector. It's not very sensitive nor lessens the sensitivity

Nexus S Screen Protector?

Hello Gents first post on this awesome forum I use once a day, I have exactly 5.67 in ebay dollars and I am wanting to invest in a screen protector from ebay. I have very little experience with various type of screen protectors and I am trying to find the ideal candidate. I do not want either a mirror or full body skin, I do however like the look of this "matte" and I feel it was a screen protector I had once before but am not sure. I am looking for something very smooth and under 5.67 on ebay! Will look at any reply exceptions made on price but cheap is key.
Most generic screen protectors are the same; they're just clear. The problem with them is that the cut outs are usually a little off if you get a cheap one. SGP probably makes the best ones that I've used but they're expensive.
Always heard good thing about sgp.I think they are about 10dollars on ebay.
In the past I've used momax (shop.momax.net) and liked it (but it was on non touch devices), but I don't know if they are available on ebay.
sgp make great screen protectors but theirs do not cover all of the phone and leave a gap from the bezel to the screen you can try other companys such as clearivue or skinomi

Guess there are many on ebay, and I guess momax have one too.
i`m just curious, what for do you need screen protector? i didnt use none since ive bought NS and there is not even one scratch.
This won't really help your budget, But here's my 2 cents
I just bought a zagg invisible shield screen protector the other day. I got the full body, back and screen protector. I have yet to apply the back cover, but im actually very impressed with the product so far. I got it at best buy, and paid 5$ for the girl there to apply it.
I treat my phone well but damn I have to buy a screen protector now because my screen somehow feels grainy as hell almost like my fingerprints actually scratched the screen really annoying this phone is quite new as well I ordered the clarvious one or however its spelled hopefully fixes this problem
Do you know ZAGG invisible shield? I think it is one of the best screen protector for our nexus s
U can tried idefence screen protector. Since it cover all your phone body to ensure maximum protection. It also much cheaper than zagg..

I got a matte screen protector free with a case I bought. I have never liked screen protectors before because of the air bubbles being such and issue and the extra glare on the screen. When I got my Nexus S I really wanted to protect it so I put the matte screen protector on it and it fit really well. I think it makes the screen oddly blurry at some angles but for me I really like the matte effect and prefer it to glossy screen protectors I tried on other phones and the matte is easier to read in the sunlight over the glossy ones..

I had ZAGG invisible shield on mine since I bought it (about a year ago) and it worked like a charm. However, I took it off about a week ago because of a post I saw about how it makes the screen less vibrant. Having the invisible shield on it really reduced how clear and vibrant the screen was. Now that i took it off, it looks like a totally new phone
Look at what the mailman brought to me today. I may have waited for some time to get this but it's still worth it for only USD7. It's now installed and ready for use again. I can finally let go of my capdase case and screen protector. A good alternative to Zagg. I got one before for my I9003 but it totally sucked! This one's way better.

I use Realook on my vibrant and love it..
However, the review on Amazon about Realook on NS is not that good..
So I am wondering which one I should use..
PS. I want clear one, but not the ZAGG orange peel feelings...
I've been using Best Skins Ever for awhile for most of my stuff and it does the job, but if you have the money, Skinomi is a very nice product.

[Q] CRYSTAL ARMOR™ for Xperia Z

Hello xdadevelopers,
I'm new to the forums but I have been scrolling through numerous threads about tempered glass for your smartphone, especially for the Xperia Z. I'm looking for a good protection, front and back, whilst keeping a 'nude' phone.
I've seen a couple examples:
Let's start with the 'Glass t. from Spigen'. 'Only offering a glass protector for the front of the device. You do get a back protector but that is not a glass but a ultra crystal film I believe. Also, I read that the Glass t. has a problem with chipping, the Glass tR. is not yet released but is in the works a should fix this problem.
Second I saw 'Bodyguardz' but they do not over a protection for the XZ. After that I saw 'Brando Workshops', who do offer rounded edges for some devices including the XZ but again no back protection.
But then my I caught this 'CRYSTAL ARMOR™ for Xperia Z' , they do offer a 9H hardness glass protector for both the front and the back, I believe 0,25mm thick (each sheet). The price is quite high at 6,300 Yen and yet again I believe this product has no rounded edges so chipping might again be a problem. I saw a video on YouYube that it does fit in the docking station from Sony, however I have never read a review of the 'CRYSTAL ARMOR™ for Xperia Z'.
The problem here is, I do not understand Japanese, I do understand some words but I can't read it. All the reviews are spoken or written in Japanese so I was wondering of any of you have seen, experienced or own this 'CRYSTAL ARMOR™ for Xperia Z' ?
As I mentioned before I do worry about chipping based on the pictures I've seen who seem to show me a glass without rounded edges. But it does seem to have cutouts.
I think I saw this protector earlier on xdadevelpers but I have not read any review.
(I can't post a link because I'm too new, Google should bring you to a website though)
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide!
P.S. Please forgive me if I've made errors in my text, English is not my native language.

Thanks for the reply, I might give this one a shot.
For ten dollar I get a front and back protector for the Xperia Z.
If you do have this screen protector, do you mind telling me how it is?
-How is the feel? Rubbery or Glass
-Is it really scratch resistant for normal use
Did some quick research and apparently there are a lot of coupon codes on the web for discounts.
Now I only need to find one for free shipping

This looks like a nice alternative to the Brando glass and the sgp glass t. A bit pricey at 6300yen, but you are getting front and back glass.
Also it states at .4mm thickness, so it may get thick with both applied. Has rounded edges tho.

I am in the US and already have my Z3TC since last week but I'm using it with the plastic that it had because I have'nt bought a screen protector. Sony store doesn't have any acessories for it yet I'm waiting for a case and a screen protector and also the game control mount to be available. There is a tempered glass screen protector I found on Amazon but I don't know if it's any good because there are no reviews yet.
Here is the link: www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00NA8D7S6/ref=pd_aw_sbs_2?pi=SY115&simLd=1
There's another one too: www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00NGXH8WQ?pc_redir=1412930863&robot_redir=1
Thanks guys!
Here's another one from Roxfit I'll update the first thread!
I've been using a VSTN glass protector for a week, and think it's quite decent.
BTW, does z3tc have anti-shatter film? I installed the protector without taking look at it.
Cool

You bought the VSTN screen protector on Amazon right? Was it easy to install?
I think since the Z2 sony doesn't put the anti-shatter film anymore because people hated it.
Yes, I guess there's no more ASF on Z3x because of the Z1. I'll look to it when I receive mine.

I bought it on amazon.co.jp (Japanese version), but amazon.com also has the same product (ASIN: B00NA8D7S6)
It was easy to install, and there's no air bubble. The camera and sensor holes are perfectly aligned.
No anti-shatter, nice! I wasted a whole day peeling z ultra....
Has anyone managed to find a tempered glass screen protector in UK for the tab z3 com
Has anyone managed to find a tempered glass screen protector in UK? I've searching for them for about a week and no has tempered glass screen protector for the Tab z3 Compact. Everyone has the standard plastic one's. I've even contacted a few suppliers on Amazon and eBay but no luck
I'm using the Sony oficial one, I've ordered when order the tablet plus the free white case.
So far I don't have complains. Really thin, clear, no bubbles, and good for typing/use/click.
12€ is not bad for a oficial one, but remember is only one SC if you screw up well 12€ for trash. Most officials ones on my country are like 19€ pack of 2sc, hope Sony does in future some of those packs.
I got this one here off ebay, Free shipping also, still waiting for it to arrive.

You're link is broken
I bought the official screen protector, well it does the work nothing more, nothing less. It is still painful to put flawlessly as usual (w/o any dust, or hair between the screen and the film). It's seems to be resistant to fingerprints, a simple wipe with a microfiber towel will clean the film.

Just got it in the mail today (finally) and put it on. It was packaged great, wouldn't worry about it breaking during shipment (they included a capacitive stylus too which was nice). Install was easy, just take your time lining it up and use the guide stickers once you have it lined up to keep it there for an easier install.
The fit is okay. The hole for the proximity sensor could have been a little higher but it works. Its fills the tablet from top to bottom snug but the sides are slightly small but not bad at all.
The edges don't seem to be rounded like some other tempered glass protectors I have gotten but they aren't sharp. Sticks up just a little when on as expected.
Overall I'm happy with it. Price was good but shipping took almost a month.

Original Sony Protector
I went for the original Sony one & found it better than I expected tbh. It's got a slight anti-glare finish to it that I wouldn't normally choose but it works really well.
Might just have been lucky, but I found it really easy to install, compared to others I've fitted to my other devices.
On the whole I think I'd recommend it. I was going to use this until I found a good tempered glass one, but I'm starting to think there's little point changing it.

Limited quality screen protectors...

Ok, I'm done with these dumb glass screen protectors. I've tried like 3 different brands and they all have problems. I currently have the pleson one, but it doesn't stick to the screen properly and degrades responsiveness. And does anybody notice how incredibly cheap branded accessories there are for this phone??? Lol. Anyway, I'm going back to my regular style of protectors....the glass ones are too thick and I don't like them. So my real question, has anybody tried the IQ shields?
OnePlus 3 Screen Protector, IQ Shield® Matte Full Coverage Anti-Glare Screen Protector for One Plus 3 Bubble-Free Film - with Lifetime Warranty https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01GQWLLIU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_QFwKxb94W483A
yeah... avoid both pleson and yootech products i have used them both the 9h tempered glass which only adheres the top and bottom and their 3x pack of pet film... and they are badly designed... its so hard to apply the pet film... long story short avoid pleson and yootech i left reviews on the amazon site..
iq shield uses a solution to apply the screen protector just like armorsuits.. and i know armorsuits are good.. so its up to you, personally i dont like that kind of application since sometimes... they are not permanent .. if not applied well enough ..
I've got reviews of both the skinomi and iq shield ones on amazon, but ugh. You can't see crap on them and I went to the pleson/yootech full tempered.
The matte distorts all colors and you cannot read anything if apps have white backgrounds.
Good luck reading on this

I didn't buy the matte IQ shield. Instead, I opted for the clear one. And I am soooooo happy now! It's just like the old ZAGG protectors. Fits perfectly on the screen, and almost could adhere to the rounded curves. Overall, best protector. The glass ones can kiss my you know what. Lol.
I too am done with the glass I wish they worked but they simply dont. I have installed the pleson from Amazon:
OnePlus 3 Screen Protector [3D Full Coverage], PLESON® [3-PACK].
Which offers full coverage and doesn't feel sticky like a skin its more of a plastic finish and doesn't affect responsiveness.
Make sure you are in a dust free environment and take your time to align and them smooth out the bubbles. It went on perfectly with patience.

Has anyone find a place to get these Plesons to EU? Finland especially but the Pleson shop from State doesn't ship atleast to FI...
I think I'd pay FedEx or UPS shipment to get proper screen protector.

Oops, I think I was thinking of the yootech ones that are very similar. They might be worth a try.

Probably go with yootech before Pleson (or something better comes along) comes available. I did contact Pleson via Amazon for shipping options I'll wait for an answer first then make the decision.
I'm actually using a Brotect Airglass screen protector. It's hard to describe but it's thin as a plastic screen protector but it's also make of glass.
It have the exact same cut out than the original screen protector so it will not cover the curved border.

So far not a single scratch

Can you post pictures of the borders, how big is the gap of the visible screen that isn't covered? Also exactly like the pre-installed one? Because the Orzly plastic protectors are slightly wider and only leave a smaller gap then the pre-installed one.
Also funny, the company is based in my hometown. Might as well stop by when I visit home next time lol.
For the brotect airglass it's exactly like the pre-installed one but with a thin glass feeling

No pictures?
That sucks then if it's exactly like the pre-installed one and not even slightly wider, that's way too narrow then.

With the screen off, it focus on my ceiling with the glass reflection.
Thanks! Yeah you can only see how much of the visible screen is covered when the screen is on.
Looks like it covers less than the Orzly film protector, so I'm still hesitant.

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:

Another on Amazon UK with coloured parts, different design:

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+.

been looking at this one too. I typically do not use screen protectors but will on the Note 8. Can you tell me how well these work with cases?
Thanks

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.

Doesn't look case-friendly
I used one from Armoursuit on my note 7 and liked it enough to put it on my s7e. Unfortunately they won't have any until the 15th. I order one similar and a tempered glass. Figure I'll try them both. Supposedly case friendly

How are Armoursuit's screen protectors? Are they stylus-friendly?

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
