Moto Z vs Moto Z Force screen comparison - Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion

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.

Did you have the tempered glass protector on your Force while doing this comparison?

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?

The top layer of the shatter shield is plastic...and removable?
I had my phone for 7 days and there are some noticeable (albeit light) scratches. Annoying since I've babied it. I installed a screen protector yesterday on it.

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.

Screen Protectors

I've installed the in the box screen protector, it will do its job but its cut the same size as the shatter protector so was a nightmare to align without it going off one side but not the other. The application was the hardest of any I've ever applied as the shatter protector attracts dust like a magnet! The edges are already picking up dust so I'm on the lookout for a replacement.
I've got some Terrapin ones from Amazon...anyone tried these yet?
I've a feeling a wet apply protector would be best for this screen, as I'd expect them to be big enough to overlap the edges of the shatter protector.

I got a pack of these..
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/180983297773?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
they are a like a foil and very hard to apply indeed. Ended up with a lot of bubbles but was able to get rid of most of them, only with few where the dust particles settled.
It is very clear and leaves the screen smooth to use. Also they only have the cut for the front cam and does cover the sensor areas whereas the terrapin ones seem not to cover the sensors as well. Ordered a terrapin pack too off Ebay as a comparison.
The Terrapin ones I ordered from Amazon just arrived today (I bought the 10-in-1 pack) and they seem very good so far - the screen no longer attracts dust like a moth to a flame. It was a bit difficult to apply at first (it took me 3 attempts) but I finally got it nice and smooth with only a few bubbles around the edges where I think it lost it's stickiness due to me trying to peel it off again to reapply.
At the price of 10 for £3.49 I'm quite happy with these,
I have too installed the in box screen protector (above the anti shattering film) on my T
Now i am looking for a fingerprint-proof film
Sony japan sell various films (glossy, matte, fingerprint, privacy) but unfortunately it's for their "GX" (same as TX) model
Any one heard about this brand ?
http://www.bodyguardz.com/screengua...-skins-films.html?dir=asc&order=sort_priority
I am more interrested by the figerprint-proof part and wouldnt like the screen to become fuzzy because of the Antiglare
Doesn't the phone come with a factory screen protector? Mine looks like it has one. I received a screen protector with my Incipio case, but didn't put it on since it looked like mine had one already. Didn't know if that would affect the screen sensitivity.
I think the phone come with a preinstalled anti-shattering film. (but it's a little confusing since there is no mention to that in the manual or box)
It can act as a screen protector too, but you can put another one above if you want to keep it in mint condition.
I have absolutely no sensitivity problem with the factory film + protection film

Yes, all xperia phones (Correct me if i am wrong) come with a factory fitted protector. And the first thing you should do is take it off and dont bother with them
IMO the protctors get sctatched very easilly and atract dust, whist the bare screen is very durable and looks cleaner.
I dont use a case and keep my phone in my pocket with car keys, house keys and loose change. The screen never gets scratched. And I have done that on my x10, my neo and now my T.
Disclaimer, if you take the protector off and then drop a working diamond tipped drill onto it and it scratches the screen, thats not my fault
So you think the factory installed "supposedly shatter-proof film" is meant to be removed before use (if you didnt like it) ?
like on my xperia s e my tablet s , i took it off on my XT and is so smooth ... the glass feel is 100times better then the plastic and the screen is sharper .. the screen protector preinstalled is so thick...

I'm glad you mentioned this. Has your Xperia T attracted particles underneath the camera or the gap between the display and corners while in your pocket? It may be too early to tell, but it seems all phones are prone with the issue.

so the issue I have is the feel of the screen with the think layer on it (not the free protector in the box or the other you can buy and apply).
So I too would be tempted to peel, but who else has done this.
Glass would indeed feel better.

Moshi Screen Protector Visor

Anybody ever try this?
http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/accessories/screen-protectors/sku6280704.html#fbid=rkaXUfy0tjG
I haven't tried it but it sounds very interesting. Be very careful when you choose a screen protector. I have had a Copter screen protector on my Note 2 now for 2 days and it looks like a dartboard. It's to soft for the. S-Pen stylus. Even before the damage caused by the S-Pen reading small text was impossible due to the structure of the plastic film. $20 down the drain.
Interesting find. I have moshi palm guard for my 17" mbp since day one and it's held up very well against my watch and tungsten bracelet.
interesting for sure.... I am waiting for Spigen to release there glass cover for the SN2. I am happy with there lines of things. I picked up the Valentinus however a bit leery since my cards and all touch the screen.

I tried it with my Note 1, and didn't like it at all. Although it did protect the screen and was definitely reusable, I always saw it and found it obscured the screen too much for me.
If you like the "anti-glare" versions of other screen protectors you will like it. There is only adhesive on the outer rim so it is impossible to get a bubble on the actual display. However like other anti-glare protectors it will reduce visibility.If you are used to the crystal clear protectors I would not recommend it.

I don't think it will give it any more strength. The protector itself is not that rigid.

Surprised by the antiglare screen...

When I first got my new LG G R I thought that the screen had a plastic coating on it since it was quite dull as you would see if using an antiglare screen protector on your phone. Tried to remove the film but there was nothing there. So I guess the permanent screen is antiglare?
Odd choice. While I guess this makes sense for broad daylight, it takes away some of the visual beauty of the screen. As far as I know, no other smartwatch has gone this root. Am I missing something here? There doesn't seem to be a plastic film on the screen as far as I can tell. So the plastic OLED screen itself is exposed with no protective glass at all? For this price I find that really surprising. Seems like this could get easily scratched and finger oils smudge it badly.
Thanks.
P.S., Obviously a tempered glass screen protector would solve this problem on a number of levels.
The dull sort of antiglare effect is noticable mostly in bright sunlight. Indoors the screen seems nice and bright although I still think I'll be getting a tempered glass screen protector.

There is no anti-glare "film" .. it is just low-glare material.
What you see and touch is not the OLED film .. that one is very very VERY thin and it's placed on a substrate made out of Plastic (SUB-strate means under). What you see and touch it's a material (hard plastic or glass, I have no idea) that is fused with the OLED (using some gel bond material, similar with the one used in cell phones displays).
More than that, the OLED itself has very very low reflectance (a great characteristic of OLED as a technology) => the great low-glare effect.
Good post. Thanks. Im getting screen protector which should make the screen appear a little more vibrant.

Glass Screen Protector list

Because of the sides of the screen being curved, many glass screen protectors on the market don't address this and are flawed. I'm going to keep a list of the ones that I have tried and will keep updating the thread with any progress. As the title reads this is for the tempered glass screen protector, not film, not 'flexible glass.' Tempered glass is the only I use.
Tried:
EzGuardz
Edges did not adhere.
Ghostek
A bit wider than the EzGuardz, covers more of the glass, and cutouts are better...but edges don't adhere once again.
I suspect the reason why none of these adhere is because they haven't addressed the fact that the edges of the screen are curved downward. They can easily fix this by have the edges of the screen protector end where the glass begins to curve.
All these are on my Moto Maxx which is equivalent to the Droid Turbo.
If anyone orders other ones please feel free to chime in and I'll update the first thread with the info.
So, EZGuard also does not adhere to the edges of the screen.
Other than that is pretty good.
Feels like it has some kind of oleophobic coating.
With a Gorilla Glass screen, and a 1 use free screen replacement from Verizon, are screen protectors really needed?

Gorilla glass does not equal scratch resistant, I work in the mobile industry and every one of our demo phones have scratches on it, also it definitely doesn't mean it's shatter resistant. The screen replacement applies to the droid turbo if you have Verizon, a good number of people are using it outside of Verizon's network. And I personally have the moto maxx so again, doesn't apply. I've had screen protectors on every one of my phone's that were touch screen.

Wow, I've been using Phones with Gorilla Glass since I moved to Verizon with the D1 and never scratched the screen, but I also never carry it in the same pocket as my keys. To each their own, my wife has used glass screen protectors sold to her by the rep and the one time the protector shattered, when they removed the protector at Verizon they scratched the screen removing the shattered glass. Of course a new protector and she never noticed.

The digitizer isn't built into the screen? Huh always kinda figured they were.
I've had people come in saying the same as you, but they never look closely until it's pointed out. I bet you there are hair line scratches on the screen. Anything from bits of sand to fibers that are just the right hardness will leave a mark on the glass
But if these people don't notice then who cares?
But they notice after its been pointed out, which in turn they always get a screen protector. A small scratch may not appear to be much but it still reduces the integrity of the screen. Besides a $10-$20 screen protector which protecting a $200 screen... You do the math.

Looking into a glass screen protector as well.

Just installed a Mimeusa tempered glass today, was a-bit disappointed. Maybe it's part of a bad batch but the edges and camera cutout are not adhering evenly. Its very noticable towards the bottom, lifting between the home a back button.
Ordered Mimeusa before for my Oneplus one and it installed great. Hopefully I can get an answer from customer service.

That's unfortunate news. I have the same glass screen protector for two months now and haven had any edge start to lift. Upon installation and until now. I work in construction which my phone is always surrounded my dust.
Cracked my iVoler, so today I installed a BodyGuardz tempered glass for the LG G3 Vigor (G3 Mini)... Perfect fit, and it's guaranteed for life, so if it cracks, they replace it. Just an FYI.

Yep! It follows the screen edges exactly, coming right out to the rounded edges of the screen. The cutout for camera and sensors is spot-on, as well. It's a match. I should note that I have the exact same areas (at the very top of the screen, and a small spot at the bottom, between the home & back buttons) that don't want to adhere as I did with the iVoler. It's apparently got more to do with my screen than the protector that's on it. Anyway, these BodyGuardz are available at your AT&T store, and probably elsewhere as well, and the warranty on them is a big plus compared to an Amazon-purchased iVoler that might take 3-4 weeks to arrive from Shengzhen.
So are there any glass protectors that adhere to the edges?

How scratch resistant is it? Do you use a case?

Hey people, I was wondering: how does it hold up against scratches? I have the blue, with the ridged back, but so far afraid to use it without a case... How do you use yours? Does is scratch easily? What about the screen?

It uses gorilla glass 5, which scratched very easily on my S9. I had small scratches after a day with no case on the S9. I imagine this phone will be no different.

I feel the same way. Unfortunately. I am curious about the back though...
Back seems to hold up (maybe non touch sensitive glass is easier to make scratch resistant) the front 2 scratches in the first week... And I used a soft pouch until proper accessories come out.
Got a skin on the back and a crappy plastic screen protector for now.

I do wonder though, if it scratches the olephobic coating or the actual glass is scratched. A colleague of mine has the s7 until last week without a protector and said screen was always perfect. But it got fingerprinty as hell.
Wonder if one of those nano liquid coatings would smooth it out. I have accidental damage insurance so if that works I would rid of the scratches with that.
You might have a point there with the coating. I have noticed that as well on my samsung phones.
I tried that nano liquid, but havent noticed much diferrence though.

I guess I got lucky. I got a case and a tempered glass screen protector for free with my purchase in Taiwan. Finger print scanner works perfect. I should have checked what the brand was. It was a flagship Huawei store, so obviously they knew what they were putting on there.

See...that it why they buy iphone or smsng, cause they dont mess up important stuff... You mean the glass ones? Or the foils?
I am challenging those that think Mate 20 Pro uses Gorilla Glass (I have read the 1 or 2 reviews that state this), and it's not listed in the Gorilla Glass website. Also worried about scratches I reached out to Huawei AU and received the following:
To answer your inquiry, this phone uses aluminosilicate glass for both front and back which is also Scratch resistant and is composed of aluminum, oxygen, silicon, and several other positively charged ions.

I am seeing the above noted comments and "scratch resistant" or not, it's obvious this phone needs a case and screen protector.
I wish it had Gorilla Glass 6!
No case... Back skin and plastic screen protector
