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.

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've not found a "perfect" screen cover yet for the phone. I like the 2.5d screen but it makes finding a "perfect" tempered glass solution a problem. I have a full screen protector one on now and it's okay. I haven't found one of those that have adhesive on the entire back panel of the glass. The adhesive is only around the edges on the painted surfaces.
I have another one I haven't tried yet. It looks like it has adhesive on the entire back surface and the outer edges are made of carbon fiber (supposed to be anyway) The outer edges are at least a soft material that supposed to stick to the entire edge and curve around so that it fits a 2.5d screen better. The problem with the ones I bought is that you can't see the backlight from the buttons on the bottom of the phone. Not a deal breaker but a flaw in the design.
Do some searches on aliexpress or someplace and you'll see. Search for redmi note 4x carbon fiber to see the second one I mentioned and redmi note 4x tempered glass for the full screen ones I also mentioned. There are clear non full screen ones that don't go to the edges of the glass. I haven't purchased one of those and probably won't.
It's really hard to find something decent. I personally prefer the traditional tempered glass screen protectors, but I've tried three now and they all look terrible, huge white marks on the sides even though the tempered glass doesn't cover the full screen. The full coverage one lost its adhesive due to my case pushing up against it, and it looks awful with weird adhesive marks in the middle. Honestly I'm contemplating going back to a film screen protector because I just can't find a tempered glass screen protector that will work for me. Also worth noting that I have a friend with a White Redmi Note 4x and I was able to transplant my screen protector onto this device with zero issues, so it's as if the black variant has glass that is more curved than normal

I applied my tempered glass with my case on the phone. It's one of the full screen protectors with the painted frame around the outside. I think they do that to hide the fact that the glass doesn't fit to the curve. It looks good but I know it's not a perfect fit.
Upon research there appears to be fluid you can apply to the edges to get a perfect seal to remove the halo effect... I will investigate further
With my new case I posted about the full screen tempered glass looks perfect except for the fact they don't put adhesive on the entire back panel. Just under the painted area.

Yes... in my experience this doesn't last. I had two lift up and get dust underneath and then it was horrible after that. Also I got the weird rainbow effect in the middle of the glass and the keys at the bottom didn't line up exactly.

Buy from glazedinc.com
It's a perfect fit and it costs ₹400, they also provide cash on delivery in India.

I stay in Hyderabad India and on the name of tempered glasses they are just selling cheap flimsy transparent fiber or thin glass kind of material which is easily broken they are not actually tempered though the cover has a picture of hammer but they are not tempered glass.

As no hard material can cover a curved glass manufacturers need to make a hybrid glass. What I have done is bought a edge to edge glass from glazedinc.com and a tpu case from local market, edge to edge glass protects my display from scratches without compromising the looks and tpu case protects my device from falls. It's the nearest to perfect solution one can do for the note 4

Good to hear I too bought the edge to edge tempered glass which is still flimsy but still can protect the screen without compromising the looks however I'm looking forward to purchase hard kickstand case which can protect the device when it falls. Kindly give me the link of that TPU case you bought and please tell me if it is hard enough to protect the phone. Thanks in advance.

tpu case was bought from local market (for about ₹150), if you are asking for tempered glass then just goto glazedinc.com
Used the bundled case for a couple of days, realised its just a scratch proof cover, no impact protection.
Ordered a Spigen bumper case and wet application Spigen film, somehow was not satisfied with the protection it offered.
Nothing happened to the phone after a 3' drop, the Spigen case worked well and the film felt a bit flimsy.
Looking out for a full case; then found this on Amazon
"SUPCASE Full-body Rugged Holster Case with Built-in Screen Protector for Galaxy Note 8 (2017 Release), Unicorn Beetle Shield Series"
Covers the phone completely, and has a plastic film screen protector. Impact protection is awesome, but the screen response with the film deteriorates.
Popped out the plastic film,& installed a tempered glass screen protector. The cover matches up well with the glass screen protector.
"SUPCASE Galaxy Note 8 Screen Protector, Premium Edge-to-Edge Full Coverage Tempered Glass Screen Protector"
Installation of both is a breeze, both over in 30 mins. Ofcourse, the sensitivity of the screen reduces slightly, esp on the curved edge and when u have dry fingers. Better than cracked screen/back, i have magic fingers, make me drop almost everything I hold!!!
Used it for about a month, adds bulk n weight to the device, then, I have big hands & this feels good to hold.
And the wireless charging works perfectly, and the stylus helps when fingers give up!
Product link pls.

Am not allowed to post links However, have posted the full description of product from Amazon, so easy to search.
Update:
The tempered glass broke when i was replacing the SIM, ordered a new 1. The installation was a breeze, seems to adhere better to the screen, very less loss in sensitivity... Quality variation in production or Spigen really improved their glass shape, or both?
I've ordered at about 5-6 Tempered Glass for our Mi Note 3, and it wasn't easy to find one which fitted our phone perfectly. If you'll order one, than search for 'full cover'
This one fitted our display perfectly and is rounded and cheap, too:
https://de.aliexpress.com/item/LITB...-Xiaomi-anmerkung3-Glas-Film/32846070628.html
Yep, finally gave up searching for a fully transparent one as none fits edge to edge, ended up buying the one you posted and somewhat satisfied because it covers edge to edge, albeit the precision is a bit questionable and the matte finish gives different impression of blue (it's more like purple). NVM, my back cover is protected with a transparent TPU case and I can still myself in the "mirror" which is very helpful for back camera selfie (I love to do that because pixel2mod front camera won't work in advanced features like bokeh).
I have a few ones`s: At the moment i use one 9H tempered, and with colour blue. Not the qualith of a Ultimate Shield or Nilkellin, but it works so far...
And covers all screen.
Im using this for my Blue model:
https://www.gearbest.com/screen-protectors/pp_1412259.html
Of course is not a Nilkellin or Ultimate Shield, but covers it all.

I brought it in Taobao and I don't think it can spam oversea outside of China. It need special oil to fix 2.5d glass problem which is liquid but become solid when dry.

Since mi note3 has curved edges, I bought soft protectors form taobao. Glass protectors dont fit very well.
Ace case do a tempered glass one that fits the corners perfectly. The main issue with it is that only the top and bottom coloured sections have glue on. Hard to explain but the part coving the screen doesn't so the slight air gap does effect viewing quality after a month or two.
I just got a ace case invisible screen protector to replace the tempered glass one and it is excellent. Obviously it won't protect as well from a large fall but I think it should still do a good job.
It's a soft plastic screen protector that you apply wet to the phone and it drys out after a few hours. Perfect fit and the quality is excellent. Feels good under the fingers and is very resistant to smudges. I'm really impressed so far.

forget waiting 1 month and half for my feedback, shipping from china is not usually fast, you all should order it now
because I already checked how is ceramic protector on youtubes and a lot of reviews on aliexpress from differents phones, it is really better than both hydrogel and tempered glass.
Hi
So finally spotted accessories for our new device on nillkin main site frosted covers and a bunch of screen protectors for x3, x2 and k30
While the euro site (much faster dely if in EU) only offers one type of screen protection for the mom and no case.

How are ceramic any different? Cuz I doubt they use actual ceramic. It's either plastic or glass, and plastic doesn't protect your phone from falls
Yeah, there's no much info on ceramic, apart from sellers. Someone complained that tempered glass is rubbish because it cracks [emoji2357] That's the whole point. If you drop your phone tempered glass will save your screen. Plastic is only good against minor scratches.
If there are any decent tests/review of ceramic screens please post links. I would love to see how it compares against tempered glass

Just plastic with ceramic coating*(or Nano-Ceramic Coating)
lt is hydrophobic, which is a fancy way of saying it repels water.*This means dirt will have a more difficult time bonding to your screen, and can be removed with less effort.

Today I received my ceramic screen covers, they feel great and are way better than tempered glass, but are cut like crap so a lot of screen is covered. Thank God I didn't remove the original screen cover so I can still use it!

Bought this one. Still waiting for delivery.
It's been barely a week since I bought the phone and the plastic screen protector already has some scratches (with very light use!) should I took it off when applying a new screen protector or leave it as is?
Also what's the possibility of one of those scratches on the plastic protector scratching the actual screen? it could be possible?
using matte finish protector. no fingerprint etc on screen. bought at 2$ from local store
Tempered Glass
Every glass for the 9, 9s 9pro fits.
tempered Glass for the Samsung galaxy a 21s fits as well tho - In my opinion even better, because there is no cutout for the punchhole camera and therefore no possibility to catch some dust.
Bought a matte ceramic protector and it's frosted and very noticeably dulls the sharpness of the screen. I do like the matte feeling though, feels nice and my skin oils glides across it quite easily. It glued on much better than tempered glass screen protectors I bought in the past. Don't see any bubbles. Emphasis on the frost that causes very noticeable screen dullness though. Just for that, I do not recommend it. Good thing I ordered normal tempered glass together with it.
I have bought a Matte ceramic Screen Protector from Aliexpress and the Nillkin XD CP+ Max tempered Glass.
both have black edges which protrude slightly into the display and are really edge to edge display protectors.
The Ceramic one covers a little more of the Display then the nillkin glas.

The Ceramic one feels a little bit different, but nice. For myself i prefer the feel of glass what goes for the nillkin.
The touch input is also a little better on the nillkin
A big minus point is, that at Sunlight the Matte Ceramic is much darker then the nillkin glass.
Overall i think both are good screenprotectors, the look of the matte is really nice but but at the expense of a slightly worse touch and display brightness.
