True Bumper Case

i didn't see this posted anywhere else......
i found this on amazon.com
http://www.amazon.com/Galaxy-Bumper...&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
gotta say i was impressed, but when u apply it, u need to put it on straight, not at an angle, or the buttons wont align properly.
included some pics

I always contemplated that case but I had 2 concerns 1) does it affect your reception while on and 2) would it lift a rear screen protector

my reception seems the same, and i don't have a rear screen protector, just a front... and my front one is a case friendly armorsuit currently. i was just glad it wasnt one of those fake bumpers that actually just have a clear back on em.

I purchased that one from Amazon and another from AliExpress with a slightly different design. Verizon is my carrier and both cases negatively affected my reception, by 20 or so dBm. In my office this is the difference between being able to get 4G over 3G...and at home it knocks a bar off. Additionally the GPS/Compass seems to be occasionally affected. Since installation Waze (I use daily) occasionally loses compass direction when the car stops. The map will spin, recalculate, and then correct once I get moving again.
Outside of that they look and feel great. They add just enough width that I'm not accidentally touching the edge screen when I'm putting down and picking up my phone.
I would like to keep using mine, because of that Im going to start cutting slots into the frame where I believe the antenna's are to see if receptions improves. If I ruin the bumper or reception does not improve, no big loss...the one from Aliexpress cost me 10 bucks shipped.

Here is a link to a video reviewing the one that I purchased. This isn't my channel, buts its how I found the bumper. The link to buy on Aliexpress in in the description of the video.

I've never seen those before, they look pretty nice. I went ahead and emailed them, they have one for the S7, maybe one for the Edge is in the works?

@mixxxk can you comment on the "case friendliness" of that protector? I'm considering switching to it from the Zagg HD Dry since it interferes with some of my favorite cases.

I know you asked Mixxk, but it turns out I'm using the same protector. I'ved used it with this bumper and with Vena's vArmor case and had no issues with it lifting.

The above link is correct, after what seems like I've tried a million protectors, company's started releasing "case friendly" variants... the best IMO is the armorsuit or iq shield. No lifting or peeling. I used a hair dryer to help the healing process and left it case free overnight.

Seems it does indeed take a slight hit in signal, but bars remain the same

Got some pics of mine. Got some close ups to show the edge of the "case friendly" screen protector too.

A bumper only makes sense for some phones, but with the glass back on the S7 I think protecting the back is important.

Left Side = Without Case, Right Side = With Case

I agree. I purchased the bumper hoping it would make the phone easier to handle and protect the metal frame of the phone from scratches. Impact protection is not something I expect from it.

I heard back from Rhinoshield, it doesn't look like we will get a bumper from them. See their response below.
"Hi Ariel,
Thank you for your interest in our product.
Unfortunately, due to the s7 Edge's contoured sides, it is looking quite unlikely that we will be able to do products for it.
We hope you will one day have a phone for which we can provide the best protection there is
Have a great day.

what brand of bumper are you using, didn't see and logo or brand marking.

Which color bumper frame will match best for the silver Galaxy S7 Edge?
1) silver
2) Black
3) Gunmetal
4) red
Which would you choose for the silver phone?

Require Simple Screen Protector - No Glass Screen Protector

Hi there!
I need simple plastic film, clear screen protector, similar to what is installed on new OnePlus 3 out of the box, but this one don't cover edges of the LED, leaving about 2mm exposed from both sides.
Kindly someone give me names or links of full screen protector which is not hard glass, but soft regular screen protector which cover complete screen
Or any other Phones screen protect which can cover OnePlus 3, may be of galaxy S7 Edge
Why i need simple screen protector:
- Its thinner
- Its not noticeable, you don't feel if its there
- Prevents scratches
- Don't make device thicker, by putting extra thick layer
- Can access home button/finger print reader easily, without digging your thumb in
Why i hate Glass Screen protectors
- Thicker, makes phone fatter
- Untidy, makes phone bulky
- buries home button further inside
- At times, i have seen they can damage the screen as well

I am using the IQ Shield and I love it. Fits great and was pretty easy to apply.

I have the iq shield and one thing I didn't like about it is that there is visible orange peeling at certain angles.

protector that comes preinstalled on OnePlus 3 seem to be of a very nice quality to me, issue is that, its short, i feel they could extend it little more to sides, just before it curves down, they made it short intentionally to make people buy there full screen or other temper glass screen protectors.
May be i should try to take screen protector of some other phone, like that of Samsung and try to cut it as per OP3.
May be i can extend it to black bars where the screen ends.

I decided to try the Orzly tempered glass. Normally I'm a huge fan of the Spigen Crystal and Ultra Crystal plastic ones - still almost no noticeable marking on the Crystal I have on my LG G4, and the Ultra Crystal on my wife's Nexus 5 literally saved us a screen replacement last winter. I thought the screen HAD broken, down to ordering a replacement to put in it ... but when I peeled the Spigen off, the screen was fine. They don't have one for the OP3 yet though. So this time I thought I'd try something different with the tempered glass. If I don't like it, I'll have to keep looking.
Interested in seeing if there are any good plastic screen protector recommendations though, in case I find that I'm not a fan of the glass ones.

Best non-glass screen protector.
BestSkinsEver Thank me later (or don't b*tch at me when you F up the wet install, ZAGG style)

I actually really like the original film protector. I still have mine on and I got the phone as soon as t was available and it still looks great.
Anyone know where I can get another? They don't seem to have them at the oneplus store.

Its of good quality, they could cover sides bit more, as curve starts from where black line starts, i guess the made it short for people to buy their accessories and remove it, probably.

They look tempting, but i am not sure how they will even cover the curves, i heard they come off from edges, it would have been better if they had left the curves exposed, just cover the complete LED, just up to the point where LED starts.
Hopefully it will give surprising results.

Rinkes Fusion is a good case (I have it but didn't use it for long) , though it almost duobles the thickness of the phone and I do love the sleek look and feel of this beauty
Now I'm using a polycarbonate/plastic slim case, not the same amount of protection but sure looks good imo.

The dust caps are soft so it's easy on and off. Won't be hard when you need to charge. The back since it's just transparent hard plastic, it'll probably be scratched over time but that's it's purpose anyway. Haha. You could always put a clear sticker on it.

Currently I have a case with a dust cap for my Honor 8. The caps are very hard that it pushes the charger a bit and now it doesn't lock anymore with the holes. Thanks. I'm planning to get an Honor 8 Pro and looking for cases. Ringke seems no for me.

Pitaka case and Skinomi screen protector drop test!

I dropped my Note 8 today (it sort of flew out of my hand) from a height of about 4.5' today onto an unpadded carpet over cement floor at work today. So, not much cushioning, but better than bare cement. It hit square on the s pen corner and made a terrible thud. I think we all know that feeling in your stomach before you look....
The impact bubbled up the Skinomi protector but that was all! I'm so relieved! The very thin Pitaka case and the Skinomi did their jobs very nicely...I'll need to replace the Skinomi, but that's it!
:laugh: :good:

also protects from shocks?
it would be perfect but I do not like carbon look

This case looks premium. If it had more protection I would go for it. Does anyone know any premium cases that offer great protection ? I hate the most used cases like Spigen, UAG, ottorbox etc .. they are all ugly and give the phone cheap look

yeah, I feel like I did get lucky, however if my Note 8 had been nakey, I'm sure the screen would have cracked. It hit that hard.
I love the look of the Pitaka. So, when i decided to switch from the Spigen Tough Armor (which is a great compromise of protection and looks, in my opinion) , I also bought a warranty from Square Trade (I've had dealings with them before and always had good service). Anyway, the case and screen protector performed better than expected, given how close the case fits. In fact, the Skinomi tried to heal itself overnight...hehehe...there's only one tiny bubble left!

I don't use a screen protector...but I'm pretty satisfied with the Mophie case.

Mate 20 Pro screen protectors.

Hi guys. Do you have any screen protectors installed onto your M20Ps? Please put here brands of protectors that you have installed and an info about fingerprint sensor working/not working after installation. I have this installed
https://flavour-design.pl/szklo-har...MIwYnk8P2y3wIVUImyCh2DjgUDEAQYASABEgL9JfD_BwE
It sits perfectly, no air bubles, it covers an entire screen and an in display fingerprint sensor works perfectly too. There are tons of instructions on youtube on how to install it properly and it is not hard at all. One thing you must remebmer is to cure it for about 10 seconds first, then wipe off any glue from the edges and then cure properly for about a minute or so. I can honestly say this is by far the best tempered glass screen protector for M20P

Does it work with spigen cover or other covers? I really like the spigen rugged armor but it makes me glass protector pop off..

Yes it should. I have tried a cover from Huawei and two other cases, one of them being Alogy Carbon and no issues. I've seen a rugged armor case is shaped pretty much the same as Alogy so it shoud be ok.

I have wasted my money on some sxxx full glass protectors. The best one that I am having now is from a Taiwanese brand Hoda. It's a UV glued screen protector. You need to have some tools or need someone to do it. Smooth to touch, stain-proof, and no bubbles. There's some little space left for protective cases, but no gaps after they are installed. Five diffetent cases have been tried with, including the original one, all fit. I am very satisfied.
