Most likely isn't tempered at all.

The only thing you could do is, perhaps, use a knife to try and scratch part of the back of the phone. If it scratches, it's not tempered glass. If it doesn't scratch, it is (technically). Remember that Gorilla Glass is just a brand - there are plenty of good Chinese tempered glass companies.
Huawei uses tempered glass in all they devices, but not Gorilla Glass. It's just a proprietary screen glass - that doesn't mean that Mate 20 Lite screen glass is better or worst that Gorilla Glass.
Neverless, use a screen protector to be safe, as not even the most recent versions or Gorilla glass are indestructible.

People still believe screen "protector" have any use! Use a (smart) cover/case instead.
I use the phone without any cover anywhere and it has one or two hard to see in the screen, also a few hits in the corner but well

Hi!
I just wanted to know which is, in your opinion, the best tempered glass screen protector for this device. So far I've no luck, I bought a 2.5d one that has airbags on the borders.
Opinions?

same problem here with Luanke glass (209626001) from g3arb3st, all around on 1-2cm it was like there was no glue at all, only the center part was sticking correctly.

This is in fact not the problem with the tempered glass. It is due to the curved glass on redmi 4x which is called as 2.5D glass which will be slightly bent at the edges. When a traditional tempered glass is applied to the screen, as the glass is flat at the center, the tempered glass adheres perfectly, while the ends are bent but the tempered glass is not. This is the reason the tempered glass always leaves air gaps at the edges. I would prefer the old school model plastic screen protector that is available on mi.com for our beloved redmi 4x. Just give it a try and you won't even feel like you have a screen protector on the screen. The only intention in this screen protector is to protect the screen from scratches that are likely to appear due to object playing around in the pockets along with the phone. This screenguard will not protect the screen from drops. You will definitely need to rely on your luck about breaking the glass from waist height of an average height guy.
thanks for your reply
i know about the 2.5D (or rounded edges) of the Redmi4x, but in my case the glass manufacturer circumvented to this problem by making protective glasses slightly smaller than the phone glass like 3mm on each border, so beside the increased difficulty to position it, it should have skipped the edges radius. But even with the 3mm skip i still had non sticky parts. (sku 209626001 from gearbest)
Indeed plastic models should minimise this issue but they are so soft ! After one week in the pocket with scratching things like keys they look so bad that they are already good to be replaced. So except if some technological revolution happened for plastic screen protector since the Mi2/S time, i think i'll live without screen protection at all

Ok thanks
Im using one of that "hybrid" screen protectors, the center is made of tempered glass and the edges made of some durable material, one claims for carbon fibers, the other for Kevlar. sorry i do not have a link for what i bought, but it looks exactly like the one in that link : https://www.aliexpress.com/item/10pcs-lot-For-Xiaomi-Redmi-4X-3D-Carbon-Fiber-Screen-Film-Anti-Scratch-Tempered-Glass-Screen/32821140687.html?spm=2114.search0104.3.29.uQibKQ&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_4_10152_10151_10065_10344_10068_10345_10342_51102_10343_10340_10341_10609_10541_10084_10083_10307_10312_10313_10059_10314_10534_100031_10604_10103_10605_10594_10107_10142,searchweb201603_12,ppcSwitch_5&algo_expid=72b8e48c-88c1-4470-9f38-f193a555b5e0-4&algo_pvid=72b8e48c-88c1-4470-9f38-f193a555b5e0&rmStoreLevelAB=5
it comes with colored edges, gold, black and white so you can use black or gold on white phone and vice versa. because the edges made of flex material, it sits perfect on the screen and have a nice curve edges all round. my have 98% coverage of the original screen, there is a 0.2 mm of gap between the two. in use on my device for about two month's now, having two falls on asphalt from about 70 cm, right on the corner, nothing happens yet. no scratches yet, as i say, i don't have a link for what i bought, i remember it was an unknown Chinese brand. hope it helps.

Isn't it the cheapest that way? Just thinking.
Also, about topic - what do You think about 3mk 3D flexible glass for RN4X? Is it worth it? I would love to get as much protection as possible since I basically drowned my previous phone (UMI C Note) in worktime when I was washing 1 cubic meter containers with the pressure cleaner. Phone was in my pocket all the time, but just small stream of water on fingerprint scanner (inb4 you are a dumbass) ruined everyting.

Hi buczek,
have you tried the mentioned above FlexibleGlass? What are your thoughts on it?
there are much different quality of tempered glass in the market. some of tempered glass screen protector is with poor adhesive glue, it's easy to come off. some tempered glass screen protector is easy to be broken. our company supply high quality tempered glass screen protector, it's with high adhesive A/B glue, up to 9H hardness tempered glass material, anti scratch and anti shatter, protect your screen effectively.

Shenzhen Western Electronic Co., ltd
Here in New Delhi I am able to get a variety of glass based screen protectors costing between ₹15-₹50 per piece. Yes they aren't as effective as those super costly ₹800 one 's but still are very good. It's just that they don't come in any fancy packaging and cleansing wipes
use nano glass,its good fit
Can anyone recommend a tempered glass that has not an insane amount of reflection effect? I bought one from a seller on Ali and it is just like a mirror, making it more annoying to use and harder to see in the sun. ali or ebay

Seconded.
The same happened to me. Also it gets dirty very easily and make the screen significantly darker.
I use these. They fit perfectly.

There's no quality screen protectors made from glass available for this model. I already spent like 50$ on them and none of them lasted long and all of them was defective in one or other way. The first one I bought (from Mocolo) with colored edges did come off on it's own after about a week of very light use. Do yourself a favor and listen to my advice... Buy some plastic screen film instead of this cheap crap and save yourself a lot of nerves and money.
I had to remove the factory applied plastic screen.
Now I can't find a single plastic screen protector bring sold for the V10! Has anyone managed to snag one? I'm only finding tempered glass protectors which I don't want (mainly because they look terrible). I'm in India BTW.
Had the same thing the other day.
Finally bought a glass full screen cover. Still looks awesome that way, the only downside is that the fingerprint sensor is now recessed. There also was no hole for the camera, but that doesn't matter at all.

Why did you need to remove the factory cover if you don't mind me asking?
Is the tempered glass listed going to provide shock absorption to prevent cracks to the display in case of falls? (see this horror video)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2fNq9YrjXU
I removed it because of several scratches and smudges. Those bugged me a lot.
Haven't dropped the phone, so I haven't tested it, but the tempered glass should indeed crack instead of the phone screen.

Your link does not talk about the P20 Pro
There is a screen protector on from the factory I noticed. Has anyone taken theirs off? I feel like it's interfering with the interface making it less responsive but know as soon as I take it off it'll never go back on the same!
Just took my screen protector off, feels way better the figer print button is flush everything feels more premium, no scratches yet
Gorilla glass or no, I wouldn't drop it. Can't rely on any phone glass to survive unless the frame of the phone gives it some protection. Most modern phones are like Icicles and shatter when you look at them.
I dropped mine from above my head while taking a picture at a gig and there's no damage at all.

I have had written confirmation from Huawei support that they use Gorilla glass 5 in the P20 pro.

I took mine off by accident since I thought it was an extra layer of packaging protection. First time I've ever bought a phone that came with a screen protector pre-applied. Moving my fingers across the screen definitely feels a lot smoother without it, which is also the main reason I've never used screen protectors in the past (that and not being able to put them on without getting bubbles below them the couple of times I've tried).
I think I'll leave it without any additional protection, I've only dropped phone two or three times in my life. Though they did actually crack on those occasions.
I think I mentioned this somewhere else, but I cracked my P20's screen. It's not fatal, just a hairline crack cutting off the top left corner. I still don't really know how it happened. I haven't dropped the phone. I think it is possible that I scratched it and then the scratch turned into a crack. Anyway, I don't think a screen protector would have saved it, as screen protectors are pretty much redundant on gorliia glass phones. Whatever scratched it (a stone I guess) was strong enough to damage the glass so would have probably cut straight through the plastic protector.
It doesn't have gorilla glass, but it does have some protection.
See the below link
https://twitter.com/HuaweiIndia/status/993763228814663680?s=19
Its the same material used in gorilla glass though.
Lol the tweet basically confirms that there is no scratch protection whatsoever. Its a shame Huawei tried to save costs on such high end and expensive phone. (view 10 is the same. Why they do this is beyond me.)

Well, that's just part of the equation. View 10 also has a "just as good" glass, according to Huawei, but scratches on every occasion. Bottom line is, Huawei tried to cheap out on the protector (again), which is shameful. Bought a Mate 10 Pro, was thinking about selling the P10 Plus we have and buying a P20 Plus, but ...thanks no.
Tbh trademarked names won't save you from breaking the screen.
I'd say glass in flagships is almost identical nowadays and if you drop it be prepared for the crack.
Feel free to remove the plastic screen protector and apply some a good quality glass one. That's what I am aiming for.
Screen with no protector can easily scratch from sand grains that might be in your pocket for example.

Corning's website shows that Huawei P20 Pro has Gorilla Glass 5.
Gorilla or not all screens are prone to smashing. I wouldn't carry a several hundred pound device in my pocket 24/7 without ample protection. I always use a decent case and glass screen protector. I highly recommend Spigen in both cases, very good quality and not expensive in comparison to others on the market.
People seem confused by Huawei's decision to cut costs in areas like this but I couldn't justify spending £800 on a such a device and wouldn't have a flagship device if they hadn't.
If you're clumsy, you're clumsy. Gorilla glass can't save you.
Have anyone try this one yet? I can't really find a really good screen protector for my Note 8. I found this...

No. You can't compare the two. The PET is nice for being more flexible so it doesn't "shatter" like tempered glass.
I prefer getting tempered glass to absorb actual impact from sharp objects then dissipate it otherwise.
no, last time i used this screen protector, my s8+ glass crack , 1 meter falling on floor
Anyone tried the pure gear hd tempered curved full adhesive glass?
Hi everyone
so far I can't find proper screen protector for my mi 11. I tried 3 different brands for tempered glass and all of them are the same:
not bent enough on the edges
fingerprint issues
back gesture don't work most of the time
adhesive is sooooooo weak
touch sensitivity issues
I'm looking for tempered glass options since I drop my phone a lot
if you have experience with good screen protectors please share
I would advise you not to use one. The tempered glass will in no case protect you display when it falls. The fact that the tempered glass breaks when a device falls, doesn't mean that without it the damage to be on the display itself. Tempered glass is pretty fragile and breaks very easily. So a slight fall will already break it where you display will not.
The Mi11 as Victus glass and is a perfect balance between scratch resistance and protection against ballistic impact (like a fall). During a live stream when the Mi11 was introduced in my country we dropped the device like 4 times on the ground while standing on a table.
My Mi11 came with factory foil protector which I removed after a week or two. The colors are always a bit less with the foil or glass on it. And the display is one of the main reasons to get this device, so it's a waste to put something on it.
Just use a skin or a case if you want to prevent some damage to the device directly but I would really not put a tempered glass or anything else on the display.
Edit: otherwise, if you really really want it; go with the aqua gel layers. They will always perfectly fit, add some extra scratch protection to your device (but less then the actual screen itself). You will still have less speed with the fingerprint and the colors will be a bit less too but that is with every layer you put on it. Again, wouldn't recommend.

I had s7 edge before and I had to give up the screen protector because of the curved edges and gorilla glass got destroyed. I know it is not harder or tougher but it can take some beats away from the gorilla glass and it is cheaply replaceable unlike the gorilla glass.

I bet that some people will not even know that Mi 11 comes with screen protector pre applied

Well, like I said: I wouldn't really recommend that either but it's smooth enough. Had one on myt Mi9T Pro for a while but I removed it and the fingerprint scanner went from mediocre to pretty okay.
And again, the ballistic impact of a fall cannot really be absorbed by a screen protector, glass, gel or whatever. So damage prevention for that situation is not really happening. But if you still want it, I would go for something like this:

Glass is glass , and glass can break. No matter if it's victus or not , if it hits the right angle it will break. Unless you are a super careful person , i would not recommend using without a screen protector. For me it's a must , i tried using my RM5G without protection and broke it in less than 3 months.
