Anyone try Lens Screen Protector? - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories

Seen some on ebay for $1-5. They cover just the lens. Past phones notice scratches on lens at the end of life. Guess wouldn't hurt to have one. Just curious if anybody ever used them before? Ordered one myself just now.

Yes, I've got a cheap one from AliExpress. In fact it was a pack of 5.
The problem I found with them is that the flash interferes with the camera when the protector is applied, and you get a washed out picture. I fixed this by trimming the protector so it doesn't cover the flash. That means that the flash isn't protected, but it isn't the end of the world if that area gets scratched.

I got a two pack off ebay, haven't noticed any issues with my picture quality and stuff. Though I don't think I've used flash yet so not sure if that's an issue.

Supposedly the one I am getting doesn't have that problem. Probably a lie and will probably have to do what you did. I am lil worried with it and cases. Did it fit fine with whatever you have? I have tech 21 hopefully fits fine.

Same question to you as above. Cases fit fine with them these lens protectors on?

I can't imagine them interfering with cases - mine is very thin, and only sits on the inner glass itself, and not the surrounding frame. No case will come close to touching it, in my opinion.

It fit fine for all my cases (Spigen Ultra Hybrid, Supacase Unicorn Beetle and Poetic Nubuck). Even a cheap chinese one from ebay that had a split cut out for the camera/flash and fingerprint holes.

Yeah, easy. Just used scissors. The only reason you can tell is that the corners aren't rounded where I cut.

Picture Quality
I've posted a couple pictures I took last month if you guys want to check it out for any degradation just because I don't have the best eyes to really tell if there is a difference. At the same time I'm pretty rubbish at taking photos.

Please, oh please, make a soft touch battery door.

The NS looks slick as hell naked, no question there. But I'm terrified to set the thing down because the back is so glossy and plasticity. Hope somebody makes a nice rubberized door for it like the EVO has. Because I HATE cases.
Ditto.... I already have a few small scratches
Get some rubberized stain spray paint from lowes/home depot.

If you can't handle a spray can properly, that's kinda depressing.
This is actually not a bad idea. You could use Plasti-dip for this. Just spray the 1st coat. Let it dry than spray another. I say spray about 4 coats and once its dry it will be matte black in color and provide you a nice grip and the best thing is that it will peel right off cause it dries as plastic!. I might actually do this. I have a few can's left from using on my car. (Available at Home Depot and probably lowes)

Even if you spray it evenly, the resulting back cover will not be flush with the rest of the phone. Do you have any pictures of a DIY job that looks good? I know people have tried with the other Galaxy S phones (Captivate excluded) but I haven't seen any that look that good IMO.
The back will cost 5-10$ to replace... Don't worry so much

Obviously, but have you seen pictures where it didn't look like a DIY POS like the person said? You end up having a nice phone with an ugly back cover that is not flush with the sides of the phone. If you have seen a good DIY job, show some pics like I said so we can see what it looks like. What is acceptable looking to you may not be to others.
The PlastiDip looks quite nice, and I am very picky. I also like the grip. The stock case is ugly...too glossy, a fingerprint magnet, and slippery to the point where I nearly drop the phone.
My Nexus S is currently my only camera so I can't post any decent photos of the completed cover on the phone, but I'll post some later when my girlfriend gets home. I'm sure the majority of you will be pleasantly surprised at the results.
Here's a shot I took after applying the second coat.

It's gonna cost a little more than $5. The Nexus S has a NFC antenna molded into the rear cover, along with some connection points that allow it to interface with the phone.
I doubt that you could find a back for a SGS for $5, much less a NS.

It's not molded in, it's an printed circuit on an vinyl base with adhesive, that is stuck to the inside of the cover.
Also NFC/RFID are dirt cheap to produce.

Looking forward to seeing the final pictures. I will probably end up trying the PlastiDip route if it looks okay. Did you have to do anything to prep the cover before you sprayed it like sanding?

D802 intl + incipio dual pro

I bought this case for my LG D802 Asian, and fits perfect, the size is like my Galaxy S2 + Otterbox, less bulky than an Otter.
I like the black mate and the phone doesn´t slip so easy like when it doesn´t have the case

The second picture is with the phone near the cover, to have an idea, the G2 with this cover is near the same width of my Galaxy S2 with Otter Box and the depth is exactly the same as my S2 with Otter, the lenght is larger because the phone is larger

I bought it at ebay at this dealer:
http://www.ebay.com/usr/cellcase4u
My experience was great, my cover arrived to Mexico in 6 days, very fast.
Personally I think that any cover that fits G2 T-Mobile, AT&T or Sprint will fit D802.
The customer support of INCIPIO is horrible, I dont understand why because the case is nice, not bulky like Otterbox, I think is enough to protect the phone.
Try to check at ebay or ask directly to INCIPIO where to buy the DUALPRO T- MOBILE variant, the models I saw are colored, personally I prefer black, but is matter of taste!
Okay... thanks.. will contact the seller then

Yikes, seems like the rubber portion attracts lots of dust/lint (top/bottom) of your pics. Maybe I should get the Spigen instead to avoid that.

It attacts not lot of dust, in the picture seems worse than really it is, if you pass your hand you will clean it easy.
Personally I dont like the Spigen because its bigger and the hole in the flash is so small that could affect the beam and personally I like more the black mate back of Incipio.

Good point about the flash. I read about it earlier somewhere on this forum, but I didn't think much of it. If the flash isn't properly dispersed, it may very well affect picture quality.
I'm planning on getting the white dual pro to match my white G2 that I'll be ordering soon. Hopefully the grey rubber bottom doesn't show dust/lint as much. I'm mainly concerned not with it being there, but that it might constantly be getting on my hands and may make the case slightly difficult to hold (I had a TPU silicon case for an iPod Touch one time and it was terrible with lint).
Do you think there's enough room on the sides of the case to have a tempered glass screen protector there without experiencing any lifting?

Most of the case is plastic and from my point of view this case is optimal because it does not slip from my hands.
About tempered glass, totally useless in phones with Gorilla Glass and total waste of money, for one side, this type of screen (Gorilla glass) never get an scratch with normal use, for the other this kind of screen degrades the clarity of the G2's wonderfull screen.
I have a Galaxy S2 for two year and still I see one scratch, of course maybe you will found something if you look at the microscope hehehe.... but from the normal eye sight, there is nothing and this is what matter most.

Yea, most likely one doesn't need a screen protector, but even with gorilla glass, I would feel more comfortable with one on there. Never know when I may drop the phone by accident and any additional protection helps. I don't particularly like to see any scratches on my screens, so I know it would bother me if there was on there.
Also, I'd probably get a higher resale value for keeping it in better condition!

[Q] Any tempered glass back protector?

As the title says, are there any tempered glass screen protectors that cover the back?
I want to know too... I've found several on eBay and Amazon. Anyone have?
i bought this just for the back tempered glass
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111671873223?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
it covers right to the edges, but you can see the edges dont stick down, so slowly im getting dust underneath, im wondering if could get tempered glass slightly less to edges and still sticking down well, as i know others can leave quite a space , is it possible ?
Thanks
Recently. I only see that normal one not the tempered one. But I do want tempered one.
Hi guys,
Sorry to revive an old thread but I've been looking for a decent tempered glass protection for the BACK of my galaxy s6 edge for a while.
Has anyone found one which does protects to the edge but not lift? A lot of the ones I have seen online have huge gaps from the edges which I don't think looks great...
I am keeping my eye on the 3rd gen for the front glass..... :good:
thanks!

Judging by the lack of replies I'm guessing there are not many good solutions out there.
If this is the case can anyone recommend a wet install / film which does not produce the orange peel affect on the back?

problem with no gap the edges wont stick on good and will just generate dust etc all around edges, if you could get one that just leaves just enough gap so it sticks on well and no worry about dirt, dust

Yes that's what i'm after, not too much gap and not too little gap if you know what I mean :cyclops:
I bought it on amazon, and the protector arrived on yesterday, i think i paid a low price and get a good stuff.

Just to update with my purchase... its the one with gaps on the sides. It's pretty big gaps for my liking too so it's a no go.

Looking for the thinnest (ultra-thin) transparent case

I am currently using the orzly FlexiCase, but I am looking for something even thinner, and especially with a lower profile on the front bezel that protects the screen.
Think Spigen’s AirSkin for the iPhone. Does anyone know of such a case for the OnePlus 3?
I guess my ideal case would be thick enough on the back to perhaps cover the camera bump, but really thin on the sides and front.
I would be interested in the same thing.
I have bought some no-name cheap case with those attributes, but I'm willing to invest in a more expensive one as long as it is tiny.

From what I am seeing up till now, I think the nillkin might be exactly what I am looking for. Can I ask where did you order it from?
Another question I have is for that "watermark" on the back. Is that a print or is it carved/embossed?
I really would have prefered no logos at all as I find they ruin the looks of the phone.

Ah that's great!
i got the spigen one for approx $13 in India.
It might not be the thinnest but it unique. This is why:
It has hard plastic on the back with softer TPU on the sides and is completely transparent. It also air cushions in the corners for bump protection.
The lips on the front are adequate for the screen and on the back are enough to protect the camera bump.
I was using an Orzly FlexiCase.
I have just received another transparent flexi case bought on ebay and it is great!!
Slimmer than Orzly, it protects both camera and screen.

Why would you do this? any "glass" or plastic protective coating will affect the optics of the camera.
I have one on the way but who knows when it will arrive. I purchased from a China seller for 1$ about a month ago. Ill update if it actually gets here.
Putting an additional thick piece of cheap glass on top is a bad decision if you value photo quality. It's like putting a $3 clear lens filter on a $2,000 L lens.
i also looked on ebay i want a screen protector not for the camera or front of phone but for the back of the phone, do they make a tempered glass screen protector for the back of the note 8 i can't find one

This does look like a good way to protect the camera lens. For $2.49 on Amazon/ebay I think I'll give it a try.

took me 5 minutes or so to apply, I would recommend using a really thin tweezer to take off the protector from its film as well as lay it on the rear camera on the phone. I dont think I would have been able to do it well with only my fingers since its such a thin and small piece of glass.
Also, it doesnt really seem like glass to me as its bendable. To me its just a harder thicker piece of plastic but maybe tempered glass is bendable? I dont know lol someone can correct me on this please.
To my eyes, and I have pretty good eyes I do not see any difference to photos. I mainly purchased this protector as I always touch the camera area when playing games in landscape mode, it really annoyed me thinking if I would eventually scratch the rear camera since my hands sometimes have dirt / dust on them
I bought these...

The fingerprint sensor cover is useless in that it stops the sensor from working, but the camera protector is very thin, and fits well. I'm not entirely sure why I need 5 - I'd only need to replace one if it gets scratched to such an extent that it affects the ability to take clear pictures. I don't see any difference to the picture quality of the camera with the protector in place.
I got one of these and after 1 day I removed it.
When using flash, the light "travels" in the glass and washes out all the pictures. Also the camera seems to "notice" something there and takes a bit longer to focus every single time..
