Just installed a Skinomi matte skin on the back. Will post pictures when the bubbles dry a bit (wet install).

I went with the zagg. The back one is actually rather ugly. Bubble central. Front zagg is fine.

Yeah, I didn't do a very good job installing mine. There's a lot of bubbles I hope dry up a bit and I left marks with the squeegee trying to get other bubbles out. Oh well, feels much better than the glass.

I ordered the back protector from xtremeguard to go between my phone and case

Any plans on uploading those pictures?
I just want to know if it covers the entire back, or if it just covers the flat part. (i.e. does it go from glass edge to glass edge?).
Thanks.

Yeah. No side protection and if you saw the back picture, there will be little open spots on the corners. It's a good protector to use with a case, not by itself unless you don't mind the sides being open to scratches.
I haven't used the screen part though. I got impatient with waiting for the bubbles to disappear.

LG G2 Skins - Protectors

So I previously ordered and installed the ZAGG full body protector (front and back) for my LG G2 (T-Mobile). The back protector was horrible. The cut outs were bad and collected a crazy amount of dust near the camera/button area. The screen protector was great as it covered 99% of the screen, but I took it off b/c of that orange peel effect.
I'm thinking between these three skins
1) Skinomi Tech Skin
2) ArmorSuit
3) Ghost Armor (Expensive though! - $60)
Anyone try either? and which one do you like better in regards to cut outs and protection?
The ArmorSuit looks like it's only for the back, no sides, top, or bottom.
If I remember correctly Skinomi is similar.
There are better options out there, particularly ones that use genuine 3M materials.

That's what I thought. But it does look like the Skinomi product offers the buttons and camera in the back which is pretty cool. I also forgot to add Ghost Armor to the list, but I don't know if anyone here tried that.

I've heard good things about Exoskins. Anyone else care to comment?
I current have the Obliq pure crystal and they're great. They feel smooth and don't have too much of a plastic feel.
They're only $7 too.

These look good. I was hoping it would include the camera lens cover like the Skinomi does. I've ready about how easily this "sapphire" lens gets scratched up. Not to mention the buttons too.

I love them. At least the textured ones. Had the pink one on my wife's and it nicked pretty easy. She's on the white carbon now.

Ah. I don't use the rear protector since i have a TPU case. I actually left the verizon sticker on the back.
Front fits perfect though and I got it on without any dust / bubbles too on the first try
When you use the skin on the back button if you put the phone face up, would the back of the phone hit the skin or the "railing" on the side of the power button?

there is a big thread about glass SP in the accessories section, http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/accessories/tempered-glass-screen-protectors-t2878038/page31. bottom line is, no SP (glass or regular) will fit the note 4 entirely. all of them out there right now only covers the flat surface of the screen, not the edges. currently only the supershieldz and spigen ones work properly, without covering the edges of course.

I'm hoping download was a typo.
don't get the skinomi one. they will leave imprints from the s-pen. i use ismooth hd screen protectors. They don't reach the edge so they won't peel, but that won't matter if you use a case.

Supcase beetle frost black is awesome on my white note 4. I use similar case on my m8. These two devices are a perfect match .

Rear glass protector

Hey guys, has anyone found a plastic or glass protector for the back of the Note 5? I've had no luck at all! I've got a clear case coming in the mail to cover the phone and I already have a plastic protector that covers the front, but I'd rather not use a case at all.
I plan on using a clear plastic/glass protector on the front and back of the phone and then get the Rhino Shield Crash Guard bumper for the edges. As far as I know the Rhino Shield isn't out yet. Would be awesome to find a clear thin plastic bumper case too!

I am with you on this one, I found just one protector for the back: "Xtremeguard" but the review for it are terrible,
other than that I found nothing, not even a cheap one from ebay, that's the only reason I am second guessing buying
the Rhino Shield.

I have this. Ringke fusion case comes with front and back. Back is not edge to edge but it does cover across the flat part in back and is cut out for the camera and flash. Suppose to cut out the "rainbow" effect u get from some of the clear back cases. Its definately a case to check out if u are one of us guys who like to have a couple different cases. Its prob my favorite one out of the 3 i have. It was definately my favorite s6 case

Tempered Glass

I just pre-ordered this phone and bought this case. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B085LR78D9/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?smid=A1VXTSRX565TLZ&psc=1.
Is there any good tempered glass out there?
Is it also worth getting a screen protector for the camera as well. I saw this on ebay? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Screen-P...brand=upscreen&_trksid=p2047675.c101195.m1851

And this case:
https://www.mobilefun.co.uk/olixar-exoshield-sony-xperia-1-ii-case-black-80635
The case has arrived and it has a nice solid feel to it, with the cushioned corners. The clear back looks nice too. It has a nice slim feel and I can already see with the nice width, one handed use will be great.
Can't wait for the phone to arrive!

Thanks for checking. Gonna start looking for another. I'm use to having a lanyard on my phone. I don't think mark 2 has lanyard holes.

I installed AOKUMA Super Glass from Amazon and it's pretty bad. Makes the screen more grayish and reflective than it should be. Receiving another brand today. (Also some unknown brand - I have yet to find a reputable brand that offers Xperia 1 ii protectors.)

Now using one from MSOVA. The picture quality is miles better. But it does have the problem that it comes up at the edges a bit. Depending on the cover you use this may or may not be an issue to you.
In any case it's better than the one I had previously.

I have the case and it's really good. A nice tight solid feel to it, grippy and feels very nice. Just ordered that screen protector too!
Spigen tempered glass update:
Fits great but just does not fully adhere. There is not a single speck of dust under the screen protector and so that part of the installation went fine, but despite endless squeegee'ing those bubbles just keep coming back. It's not air that's trapped underneath but instead the screen protector just lifts back up. As you can see, all the bubbles are exactly on the edge of the screen and haven't formed on the bezel etc.
It fits great and feels nice, but the being unable to remove the bubbles is a deal breaker.
