Screen protector messed up, remove it? - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
My Xperia Z1 is 2 weeks old and I carried it in a flip case but still the included screenprotector has tons of scratches on it do you guys reccomend that I remove it?
EDIT: does the back glass have a screen protector too? And if i remove that will I remove the logos?
Thanks,
Noahvt

Yes , the back side has screen protector but if you remowe it you will not lose the sony xperia and nfc logo . If you remove the protectors sugest to replace them with tempered glass protectors because the back/front of the phone are more fragile without protectors .

Just removed the front protector (the back is not scratched yet so I will not remove it yet) And I got a bunch of ghost touches at first, after wiping the screen the ghost touches were reduced to a few but it's quite annoying, I assume this is just some glue residue left from the screenprotector? If so what would be the best approach to get rid of that residue?
Thanks,

Clean the screen with something . The ghost touches are from residue and buy a tempered glass for the screen because if you let it like this and scratches are going to appear on it then you wont be able to remove them.

[Q] Screen Guard

Hello,
I have a new Nexus6 phone with me. There is a thin film on the top of the amoled screen, with a white mark on the left bottom side of the screen. I didn't remove it during unboxing. Is that a screen guard provided by the manufacturer, which I can use for the entire lifetime of the phone ? Or is it just for safety until the device reaches the user ?
Thanks.

okay, It was not very thin. Looks like a screen guard. So I thought it was a screen guard.
I will remove it and thinking of putting a 3M Screen Guard for my phone.
Thanks.
That's screen peel stick, just for ordinary protection only, it's different from the screen protector, you can buy one here: http://www.etradesupply.com/motorola-nexus-6-tempered-glass-screen-protector.html

Tempered glass is far superior. Most cases of dropping, the protector will break before the device glass. They also last much longer.

If you can't find it, then probably not. Also, try to chose one that doesn't cover the proximity sensor. It has been known to cause issues if proximity sensor is covered.

Yes, the tempered glass screen protector is thicker (generally 0.30mm), sturdier and more expensive than an ordinary one.
If you're considering a tempered glass protector, read the last several pages of this thread. The Nexus 6's glass is slightly curved at the edges and this causes problems with many of the protectors that are available. I'm using a Skinomi TechSkin, wet application film protector and it's been excellent, but as others have said, tempered glass will give you more protection from drops.

You might be talking about the halo-ing effect at the edges. Yes, as the edges of Nexus6 are curved, protectors that are thicker tend to have the halo effect. I am going to use a pouch for my nexus like the following one. I think that will give a protection from the drops. So I think the film protector is enough, instead of making the phone look ugly.

Glass protectors on S6E is not fit very well and reduce responsiveness. I recommend to find a plastic protector with oleophobic coating.
Yeah thanks but what do you think about this on the link?? Can i put 2 plastic screen protectors will the digitizer work, touch responsivness? And if you know some screen protetor brands i dont want the flat only part i want to cover the edges

Plastic films protect the screen from minor scratches. You should aware genuine Samsung clear view covers scratching the phone which they are supposed to protect. I don't think tempered glass can protect dropped phone. To me, the advantage of tempered glass is its feeling being the same with phone screen because they are all glass, so easy to swipe. I bought this link and happy with it (located in Australia). I purchased several temper glasses and plastic films but each has its limit. The one I recommend to you is perfectly fit, responsive and fluid. However, its oleophobic layer doesn't work very well.

Most temper glass do not covered the whole screen

Anyone out there have recommendation to a temper glass that will cover the WHOLE SCREEN? I know Zagg invisible shield works perfectly, but little expensive.
I believe all the tempered glass ones are built "case friendly" and do leave a hair line of the screen unprotected so that the case doesn't push up on it.
This is what im using

How does that work with a case?
I actually prefer them not cover the entire screen but stop just short. The ones I've had that do cover it all end up lifting on the edges or don't sit well with a case installed. Personally preference I suppose.
Same problem for me, so i have leave the tempered glass.
i hate glass screen protector
i love my phone as it is
no case or glass at all

Moto Z vs Moto Z Force screen comparison

The Force appears to have a better screen in it than the Z. I have both devices in my possession and have noticed a difference when you tilt the screens. On the standard Z, the further you get away from center the more washed out the colors get and at extreme angles the colors almost invert. You can take the Z Force screen all the way to the very edge to where you can't even see the screen anymore and the colors never fade away or change at all. I don't know if it's a totally different LCD of if they have bonded the plastic screen to the LCD in some new way, but the viewing angles are awesome on the Force. Just an observation.
I totally would have expected the opposite, other shatterproof displays in the past have been crap. Need to go check them out now.

This is exactly what I thought too. I was so confused I had to keep checking the phones to make sure I didn't have them in the wrong hands. I couldn't believe it. The damn plastic shatterproof screen is beating out the glass piece. This might be the future for all phones.
I put a glass screen protector over my Force screen so I have the best of both worlds. For those who don't know the shattershield screens dent very easily so be careful.

No both phones were fresh out of the box. The shattershield phones come with a preinstalled plastic screen protector (which sucks) and it was on as well and nothing on top of it. Just came out of the box.
I was going to take that plastic protector off before I put the glass down but opted not to. Doesn't seem to have affected visual clarity.
Don't they say the force's screen is better?

If the phone is anything like the droid turbo 2, there is a factory plastic screen protector installed that can be removed. Since I didn't touch my phone until my glass screen protector arrived, I put my glass protector right over the top of everything and it looks great.

in essence, yeah you did. The top layer of the shattershield screen is plastic and acts like what most people would consider a screen protector....
for past phones you could buy replacement top layers from Motorola...im not sure if they are on sale for our phones yet...
I'm in the market for a tempered glass screen protector as well. Glass just feels better to me. So I can remove the plastic cover and put the tempered glass instead?

I would not recommend removing the plastic layer as this is part of the shattershield and would imagine using the phone without it would void the warranty of the screen even with sing an aftermarket protector. I have not read documentation to back this up but it would be worth looking inot since the screen is guaranteed not to shatter for four years, it would be a shame to void the warranty so early into the warranty period.

It's a removable plastic screen protector. Moto sells replacements.
The only issue I have with the Z Force screen (and it really is a non issue) is that it has an odd discoloration when looking at it with polarized sunglasses. The colors are.... I dunno.. Odd....

I'm glad I did it. The stock screen protector is incredibly soft. Yes it is replaceable but they are pricey.
The screen protector I chose has a matte look to it and gives the screen a little bit more tactile feel. I like it. It's not as distorted as as you'd think.

I hate putting on screen protectors. It usually comes out crooked or there is dirt under it. This one is very forgiving. Got it on my first try and the dirt was gone by the second day.

Best tempered glass / screen protector film for huawei P10 lite

I'm going crazy to find a screen protector / tempered glass for this phone.
All I get left / lifted by the edge. I assume you have to be shorter than the screen, but the unglued border is horrible.
Any suggestion for tempered glass? I have tried several, the included original nillkin and all the same happens to him.
The images are from the nillkin tempered glass, but I've tried others with the same result.
Same here looking for a tempered glass that covers whole screen without side bubbles
I've bought this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/35204215721...49&var=621535350962&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT but although it is easy to apply and you get no bubbles, the oleo-phobic coating is a joke. It's a real fingerprint magnet. After one day's usage it's always dirty.

First, it's not exactly glue, it's some kind of liquid, but it's not a glue.
This liquid doesn't damage the screen, it is easily wiped and the protector can be replaced with new without problems in the future.

So, I still haven't received my screen protectors that I ordered, and the seller is refusing to refund me. I guess I'll just be sticking to eBay from now on, at least the sellers there are more accommodating.

The glue comes in the package. It really removes the white edges, but the glue (or whatever it is) on the back of the screen protector is terrible. It simply won't stick to the display nice. There are so many "holes" that are not glued. I tried both protectors that came in the package, and had the problem with both.
I ordered PanzerGlass Full Frame tempered glass screen protector. I'll give my opinion on that one too. :laugh:
I've tried several tempered glass protectors for the Huawei P10 Lite, and all of them have a rim around the edges where the glass won't stick ("halo") because the screen curves and the glass is too rigid to curve with the screen. It's been a real annoyance. I tried a Brotect AirGlass protector that is the same size as the tempered glass protectors, but has enough flexibility to curve with the screen. It's not perfect with a very slight unstuck rim of about 0.5mm, but it's much better than the tempered glass protectors. The AirGlass has to be precisely positioned to minimise the rim, and I found that I had to lift and reposition it a couple of times. I did this using stickers from a spare Omoton protector that I had because the AirGlass doesn't come with stickers to aid repositioning (although I think you can use sellotape - not tried it).
Anyone has a successfull protector to advise. So far they all seem to be terrible.
Like I said, I ordered PanzerGlass screen protector and it's on my device for over 2 weeks now. I can say that this is by far the best tempered glass screen protector I got. There are no white edges, and it is full coverage.
