Hi, I've tried a few screen protectors now, but every time I put on my case it peels back the protector bc it's too close to the edges of the phone.
Does anyone know of any screen protectors that are meant for the G2 with a normal case on?

What kind of screen protectors have you used and what kind of case do you have?
Generally it shouldn't be much of a problem for the LG G2 since the screen protectors are usually cut "too small" due to the curved glass near the edges.
I GreatShield anti-glare screen protectors (PET) and they fit perfectly with my Spigen Slim Armor case.

I just bought ones off of eBay like this one
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/161144531999?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
The case I bought was a typical TPU case I bought at a mall. Placed an order for a flip case.
Do you have a link of one that is "cut too small"?

Don't have a link because I'm too lazy to find it but honestly, it should be the same no matter which protector you buy. At this point I don't know of any brand that makes a protector for the G2 that goes to the edges of the screen.
I bought my protector off Amazon, I just went with the cheapest one.

They make one that is cut smaller to accommodate cases. I like that it is wet application too. Easier to slide around and get the placement perfect than dry application types.

Interesting... I might try it after I use up my current screen protectors.
This is the screen protector I got.
I definitely don't recommend the anti-glare screen protectors though since they appear to pixelate your screen. Bought an anti-glare screen protector at the same time from Fosmon and it was the same as well.

i have used the puregear and tuda and feather light case with this matte screen protector which i love! no problems... just make sure you center it spot on..if not you will have problems
Evecase Screen Protector Variety Pack with 2x Clear and 2x Anti-Glare Matte Film for LG G2 amazon
Get the Skinomi TechSkin, edge-toedge, wet apply and its great, i have it with the full body carbon fiber skin also.
Obliq Pure Crystal + Diztronic TPU case, very tight tolerances. Took me three times to get it put down right, each time was just a hair off, but enough that squeezing the case on the side popped up the edge of the protector.
Even my third try wasn't perfect, it was still popping up a little in one place, but this morning it has gone away. I'll keep an eye on it, I figured I was going to be trying it once more today.
Otherwise, it was an easy placement, looked even on sides, just a hair off. But that's all it takes
On my Galaxy Nexus, was told by Ghost Amour to just trim the edges a bit and that solved the case problem for me. I think you could use any protector if you did this.

yes just make sure you make them close to center perfect as possible; I'm using the matte ones; they give you two matte and two clear; dont matter what brand; I even spent $13 on the SPG clear HD one; and it still feels sticky like a zagg ; IMO matte is the only way to go; but there is a Lil pixelation; cause of the matte; but its a fare trade off;
p.s. dont forget to place screen protector about about 1mm below the VZW logo ; like the top edge of the protector should be at the i of the Verizon logo

This is driving me mad. I ordered some 'military grade' screen protector off ebay. Which you apply using liquid fairy water. And to be honest it is a really good protector apart from leaving indentations when you use the s-pen but thats only noticeable in the right light. This covers the whole face. To the edges.
The problem now is ive ordered 2 cases already which are just a **** build. Some tpu silicone one and a leather flip off ebay. Both dont fit the phone properly. Cant even charge with it on and plus it starts to lift the screen cpver off!
Now i have to order a new screen protector cause its damaged the edges. My question is what case can i get that fits perfectly and is actually a case that cpvers the edges...
Please help its driving me insane searching for cases all day...

Is complete garbage with the note 2. The problem with most of these wet applications is they cut the protector to go out to the curved portion of the note 2 glass. Zagg HD didn't change their cut, it was an attempt to get a less orange peel'ish type of protector. Looks great, then the S-Pen indents the protector itself, and the edges end up peeling from cases and pockets.
Dry application protectors that are as hard as you can find (3-4H rating) have been proven to be the best overall protector for the Note 2.
I have personally wasted money on the following:
Zagg (peeled on the corners) exchanged this at best buy for ...
Zagg HD (peeled on the corners and S-Pen indented protector) took it off and threw it in the trash once it started looking like ass
Ghost Armor (peeled on the corners and S-Pen indented protector) peeling was blamed on the phone and not the product (sorry excuse)
SGP Ultra Crystal (about 4 attempts to get one perfectly centered AND with no particles underneath, because I suck at installing these harder protectors)
I am waiting to try out a Just Like Glass protector so I can personally review it. The only thing that scares me is they sent out a batch that had "a bad cut"... again, no one seems to do it right the first time, with the exception of SGP. I found it strange they created the protector and THEN got a copy of the phone to measure, but hopefully they have fixed this issue.

Garbage with most tpu cases...they push up the screen protector, had the zagg hd and the one in the blue and yellow box tpu cases pushes up on sps that cover the whole front.
Dont get that zagg hd garbage. Xtremeguard are much better and way cheaper. I bought this cheap tpu case from ebay and its horrible. I had to cut my screen protector beacuse this thing fits so tight that it lifts my screen protector. I also had to cut the bottom of the case because the opening for the charger was too small. I went ahead and ordered the official tpu case from samsung and it looks to be a better choice.

when i got my gs4 it was the first time i ever decided to use a tempered glass screen protector. i bought a mime glass screen protector. now i cant go back to the screen protectors that are flimsy like zaggs. the glass screen protector feels just like you are touching the screen itself and the sensitivity as far as the phone goes, it thinks you are just touching its own glass so you lose none. only way you can tell you got 1 on will be at the top where the cut out for the ear piece will be. they are more expensive but if you want the best i'd recommend getting a glass screen protector. i'm hoping mime picks up the g2. they have the best customer support.

You do know glass can bend without breaking right? Fiber cables are glass.
just watched a few reviews on iloome glass screen protectors and they were all positive.. nothing negative.. I just installed the crystal hd by spigen which is pretty darn close to perfect.. these are undetectable other than the edges and not 100 percent the feel of glass.. I'd say 85 percent. I'll definitely purchase the glass one next time mostly for teh glass feel.. they are only around 10-15 dollars more.

Just FYI, I looked around some more and I saw a video of the "flex" model and it does "crack" on impact like a full glass one during the impact test. Obviously none of these splinter into shards to cut you, but the flexible one is definitely made of a material that is brittle enough to crack in the familiar spider web pattern of traditional tempered glass.

The edges are where the damage is most likely and it appears from the photos that they are not well covered. Not sure I am going to keep it. I also have had lots of issues with screen protectors peeling off because I keep the phone in my pants pockets. Looks like that could very likely happen with all those seams.
Yesterday one of the pointy corner pieces started to come off so I heated it up with the hair dryer and re-applied it. So far so good. I also keep the phone in my pocket.
The skin does prevent fingerprints but I don't love the feel of it. I wish this phone had a soft touch back then it would be almost perfect.

The edges seem sharp to the touch. Not enough to cut but I am not sure I love it. I noticed the screen protector gets marked up with the knock knock function.
I had to cut a couple of the very pointy ends off because they kept popping up. No problems since. The carbon skin is a bit rough and not that pleasant to touch but it gives a good grip and no finger prints. I'm going to try the Incipio Feather black soft touch cover.

anyone have any tricks as to how to get it on nice and straight on the tablets? I'm bad at tablets for protectors but decent at phones. I saw one idea where you place it down on the screen then tape the sides like a hinge, then you flip it over, peel it off, and just flip it back and lay it on the tablet and it should line up perfectly. wonder if it works.

sweet! i'll give it a try when they come in
Putting on a screen protector reminds one of what a dirty filthy planet we live on. There is dust EVERYWHERE. One tried and true method is to run a hot shower in your bathroom for 10 minutes with the door closed until the room steams up. This pulls all of the airborne dust from the air. Turn the shower off, and use the tape hinge method to apply the protector.
Despite your best efforts you are likely to STILL get that ONE DAMNED PIECE OF DUST FROM HELL that manages to somehow get on the screen. If that happens, DO NOT TRY TO PEEL THE PROTECTOR UP FROM THE EDGE because if you bend it at all it will never seat again properly and you'll have a bubble that won't go away. Use tape to stick to the outside near the corner and gently lift that way, then use another piece of tape to grab the dust particle.
One negative of putting a screen protector on a tablet this size. Unless the protector is tempered glass, you are likely to feel a bit of drag as you swipe the screen - no plastic will ever feel as smooth as glass - and because the area is larger than your phone, you'll notice the resistance more. Also, unless the screen protector has an oleophobic coating, it will be harder to clean greasy fingerprints of it than from glass. Last point, most screen protectors are actually softer than glass so you are likely to get it pretty scratched up which, while saving your glass, leaves you with a scratched up viewing surface you have to look at. The alternative is to buy a screen protector with a hardness of 9 or above with an oleophobic coating but those tend to be a lot more expensive.
Get a pack of 3 or more if you can. You WILL screw it up a few times and you WILL want to replace them occasionally as they get scratched up pretty easily depending upon how anal you are about such things.
good advice, thanks! but do you guys think this thing needs one in the end? I know gorilla glass is pretty soft and scratches easily so idk..

I don't believe this tablet has Gorilla Glass, at least I don't believe the specs say so (could be wrong?). So yes, it could scratch easily. You can try and be careful but all takes is a tiny bit of grit on your finger, stylus or wiping cloth and you are done, Gorilla Glass or no.
Actually you know, skip the steamy bathroom. Just do it in a dry room but use a strip of masking tape and screen until every bit of dust is gone. Also remember, after you place the protector on the screen with the taped hinge, make sure you clean the screen again because it will get dust on it from the bottom of the protector.
Mr Shield makes very good inexpensive protectors.

Why put a cheap screen protector on a premium device like the tab s. The best deserves the best or better. my screen protector cost 2 for 13 and a tempered glass on is on its way for $18. You cant even tell there on when installed correct.

Be very careful with the tempered glass protector. NEVER left it up by the edges - use tape. They bend VERY easily and once bent will never lay down flat properly again. Every tempered glass protector I've ever used developed sealing problems along the edges, especially near the home button. YMMV but that is my experience.
There aren't good selection of screen protectors in the UK. Looked in Amazon, Ebay, Google, nothing with quality. So I only got the Elec shield.
I'd get tempered glass if I could, but as long as I screen is protected for now, then I'm happy enough.
Has anyone installed a full glass screen protector yet? If Yes did it work?

So far they don't work. I bought two. One of them was a super guardz brand and the other a vetroo. The adhesive is only used on the edges and the top and bottom so it's not like the usual tempered glass that sticks to the screen with an adhesive that's all over the protector. They're very flimsy and click a lot and won't work with a case. I preordered the OtterBox defender and I'm waiting the 1-2 months that it will take for it to come. I will be careful until then.

Xtremeguard wet apps are great for the price and stuck well to the corners. Some cases will still push it up tho.
Skinomi has the best full body protection I've seen so far, but will only work with certain cases too.
Tempered glass protectors have yet to work on any edge device to my knowledge.
Samsung official pet/dry film protectors look like they have a great fit as well, but will have issues with lifting from most cases too.
Hope some of that helps dude.
I'm using Skinomi TechSkin Full Coverage with Spigen Thin Fit case.

On your recommendation, that's what I'm getting until things shake out a little more. I was going to be patient until my Spigen case came in but it arrived 6 days early, lol! Now I just want to put the Note 4 away and slap a sim in the 7! I could go back to T-Mob and have them put something on, but they just pissed me off!
I have been reading that none of the curved screen protectors out now work. They are saying that they only have adhesive on the sides. Hope they will come out with one that works good.
Screen protector case combos are slim to none on phone. Spigen worked well with the skinomi, leaving edges in tact, however the bezel covers made it much harder (than the s7 edge) to get on. Overall fit and feel are good, providing better clarity and original feel compared to xtremeguard. Product fails for me because it was $30+ and the side protection was useless. I would rather spend my cash with xtremeguard and get quintuple the product. One corner refuses to go down, and is gonna bug the living hell out of me. Definitely paying for the name and advertising with this one.
Will add a few pics later on.
After searching Amazon and other sources, I decided to go with a temporary solution for now. None of the reviews can be trusted yet.

I called amazon and theu refunded me the $30 on the skinomi for the extended install time and the bunk quality of the side protection. My advice, go with Xtremeguard, they have kicked /-\$$ in every device I have had and they are beyond afforable.
I took my keys today and put them in the pocket my phone was guess the results? Perfectly fine everyone will believe anything and everything they see get a nice case and you will be fine... this is my 12th galaxy device and by far the freaking best...

The OtterBox tempered glass screen protector in this video looks interesting because it is cut smaller so it won't interfere with cases. Unfortunately, it is the most expensive of the bunch. (I am not affiliated with the video creator in any way.)

Thanks everyone is tripping about that YouTube video with the scratch test. I don't think I will be scratching my phone with something as hard as the guy in the video did.
I don't know why they are making them without adhesive in the middle.

I was thinking the same, just doesn't make sense.
Yeah i think we all need to find a screen protector cause excuse my language but this is complete bull****. My phone has so many niks & scratches on it that it sickens me. Not even a wk with this dam thing never touched anything hard, nevet dropped & unless in my hand it sits in my pocket. Sorry but there is no dam reason i should have scratches & niks all over from maybe being in my pocket with some dam change a few times!
