Hi all,
I've ordered a Nexus 5x. It's on the way. For that, I am willing to buy a Tempered Glass Screen Protector and also a Back case. If you are using both, can you recommend some cases, which will go with the Tempered glass?
I liked the Spigen [Thin Fit] Hard Case: http://www.amazon.com/Nexus-Spigen-Exact-Fit-Premium-Finish/dp/B0147JXUVU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1454448674&sr=8-1&keywords=spigen+nexus+5x
But, I highly doubt, it'll protect the phone body after dropping, as the top and bottom both part is uncovered. Please, share me some name of which cases you are using currently and have a good feedback. Thank you.
I have the Ringke Fusion case with a techmatte tempered glass screen, they fit perfectly
I have the Ringke fusion as well, a very good case, I'm just using the screen protector coming with it, it's not tempered glass though
Thanks for the reply, guys. How is the Grip though? The pictures in Amazon really looks nice. But, I have a fear with Crystal clear cases, as they tends to become yellowish with time. Does this also suffer this problem??

I just got my G2 on Friday and love it. I put a GadgetGuard (gadgetguard.com) screen protector on and ordered the Otterbox Commuter case. I hate the Defender case, too big and bulky. The screen protector is guaranteed for life!

Hey thanks for the reply. Do you think a tempered glass screen protector would fit with the otterbox commuter case or no?
I haven't ordered a phone yet but I've already placed orders for the iloome flex screen protector and the Diztronic case. I'm expecting it to still be very slim and minimalistic but still have protection from drops.
I can't post links yet but you can find them on Amazon.

Thanks for the reply I was thinking about the iloome flex screen let me know how that works out and how it works out with the case because I know some SP's dont fair well with cases
Xtreme guard front and back protector and a body glove dropsuit working fine for me.
I've got the Diztronic TPU matte case and absolutely love it. Being TPU it will also allow neat and clean trimming if you have an oversized USB cable plug you use with an alternate charger (provided cable fits easily). I haven't ordered one yet but the iloome screen protectors (both flex glass and tempered glass look tempting). The tempered glass is thicker however.
whas going to install my iloom today.. but it feels to small. so back with my copter. always work never disappoint me. so now I got a unused iloom flex that is to expensive to send back (sweden-usa)
I ended up getting the Incipio feather Shine and the Glass+Zone tempered glass screen protector with a black border to cover the LG logo. The fit with the case and screen protector seems almost perfect, about 1mm of clearance on the edges. I have not installed the screen protector yet as it came today and I need to get home first!
Will post pics if you're interested.

Why would you cover the logo?
As for OP's question, I bought a Nillkin Frosted Shield case, which is more like a back cover. It looks and feels awesome, doesn't protect too much though. I use Obliq Zeiss screenprotector, which isn't tempered glass, but does feel like glass, so I'm quite happy with it.

Does anyone use a tempered glass? Because of the curved edges I suppose that a tempered glass will not cover the hole screen and might look ugly. I currently have a simple screen protector that looks fine, but I am thinking of buying a Nillkin tempered glass like e.g the one in the link http://m.ebay.com/itm/HOT-NILLKIN-9...en-For-HUAWEI-MATE-S-/262097328806?nav=SEARCH
In general I am satisfied with the quality of this brand. Any other suggestions?

have you tried this one yourself? how does it fit? so far all the ones i have tried are too small i would like it to fit nearer the edges so it is not so obvious.
has anyone been able to find one that fits very close to the edges.
There's now some companies making Tempered Glass specifically for curved edges like iPhone 6/s, Galaxy etc etc.
The trick is apply silicone on the edges of the tempered Glass.
But i haven´t found for Mate S yet...
has anyone found a tempered glass that fits correctly and does not leave too much of a gap at the edges and most of all reduces fingerprints on this thing?
My best fitment guess would be nillkin tempered h+pro. I just ordered it to my phone its ultra thin and it really protects screen from shattering if you drop (hand to floor). I have owned that protector on my Nexus5, G3 and G4 and i really love it.

I really like the Spigen Rugged Armor Case for OP3 - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...A2SFKRF5TPZMT5
But I'm worried the tempered glass i want to get won't go well with it. The Yootech one - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...A3KGQHS00G2MDY
Should i just go for a regular screen protector since the case already has some leap in front? Like the ArmorSuit one - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...A3LQSX85N730QN
Need to order them soon. Replies will be appreciated.
I had the non TG from yootech and it was trash. Didn't stick well left tons of adhesive on the top of screen protector after peeling the top layer off.
Still waiting for something with decent reviews, but now I don't even have the OEM protector on.

I am worried about those tempered glass protectors to be honest. Anything that causes air bubbles or rainbow effect, i will rip off quickly i'm sure
I'm probably just going to get another plastic screen protector and use that til a good TG one comes out. I really like the rugged armor case too and don't plan to use anything else except maybe the neo hybrid spigen case.

I guess i just have to make a decision between Neo Hybrid and Rugged Armor. Already decided to get this plastic screen protector - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B..._title_dp_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3ERO5WWGZCNON
I am in the same situation here in India. Bought the spigen rugged armor case. Liked it so much that I'm still Sticking to the stock plastic scratch guard. But I believe no tempered glass would work fine with this case. Any ideas?
Yep i'm in the same boat. Currently using spigen with stock screen protector as well. I usually dont care about the front glass as I am with the back but I recently found some people had their display broke so i'm a bit nervous about that.

I went with The Spigen Neo Hybrid as i got a plastic screen protector. So i hope the sturdier case will compensate.
any standard TG will do. I used to use it with Oneplus 1st gen TG and it fit well with the case

I would get that, but don't want to lose even 5mm of screen space. It's not a big deal, but it would annoy me.
The phone feels and looks great with the Rugged Armor case so I don't wanna buy another just so I can use Tempered Glass. I'd just keep the OEM protector on until TG compatible with this case comes out.

This is why i opted for the Neo Hybrid instead of the TPU Rugged Armor. Because i need more protection if i got only a plastic protector on.
I know this thread is pretty old but any luck in finding a Tempered Glass screen protector that plays nice with the rugged admor case? I still can't find one that seems to be compatible.
The icheckey is fine, and there are two in the pack. I got mine from Amazon.

I used orzly (as i used them on opo and op2 and they were simply the best) and they are good.
Bought them on amazon, 2 pieces pack.
Be sure to buy orzly v2 'casue v1 wasn't compatible with most armors

Orlzly v 2 is the only one that works with a Spigen rugged armor, two pack normally, I've tried them all.

I've had my Ringke Fusion case for a while now and I wanted to try out new case like the Supcase with the buit-in Screen Protector. However, I have already installed a tempered glass screen protector on my phone. My question is, could I still use the case without using the built-in screen protector? I know there is another type of supcase case that doesn't have a built in screen protector but I just don't feel the clear back anymore. Hope someone would give me some info about my concern. Would highly appreciate if you give your thoughts about the case as well. Thanks!

I have this case. The built in screen protector looks easy enough to remove cleanly. I'd imagine the phone would fit, possibly snug, inside the case.
Do you have tempered glass installed on your N5X?
Hey, I don't have a 5x, but I have a 6p with this same brand of case, and I have it installed over my intelliglass tempered screen protector. I just took a razor blaze and removed the plastic screen protector from the case. As long as you don't rush it, it removes just fine without leaving any of the plastic screen behind. Fits great over the tempered glass too. I'm going to be buying a 5x for my mom soon cause she needs a new phone to replace her cheap $50 crappy straight talk phone, and I'm gonna be buying a tempered glass screen protector and i-Blason case for it (very similar to the unicorn beetle pro) and I'll be doing the same thing with that one.
I am thinking of getting this tempered glass but need a case that won't get in the way which is good

I have a Spigen Case and tempered glass. Works wonderfully.
amFilm is good aswell. And i can pretty much guarantee a Spigen case will work for you. I have the Rugged Armor case and there is about 1mm of gap between the edge of my glass protector and the case all the way around.
You should be good with any case that's not an OtterBox or something with built in screen protector. Spigen, Caseology, UAG, etc.

Sure.
Here's a photo with case & tempered glass. And one without case and some close-ups with how much space there is around the screen protector.
This is Spigen Rugged Armor and Spigen GLAS.t R screen protector.
Hope it helps!
PS. Excuse the dust on the edges, it's my backup phone.
