Factory screen protector

[EmanC19]

Hey guys, just wondering if your Note 10 or Note 10+ came with a screen protector or more like a clear film protector? I have T-Mobile and mines came with it. I noticed the film doesn't really do any good. I have scratches all over my screen... Did you guys leave it on or remove it? I know it's hard to find a decent screen protector since our phones have a curve screen.

I have an unlocked Note 10+. I removed the one that came on it. It's very optional. I don't use screen protectors, myself, so I don't have any suggestions. I haven't had any issues with scratches.

I have the built in screen protector on. Its been almost 2 months. No scratches. Just a few little bubbles because the application wasn't perfect.

And if plan on getting another protector. I would recommend Rhinoshield or Ringke. Costs less than WSD and works well enough as long as its precise.

Bought unlocked direct from Samsung and the factory protection is still on and doing well won’t replace until it starts to peel.

My factory installed screen protector has a lot of micro scratches from the S-Pen. When it annoys me enough, I'll take it off and install my Whitestone Dome tempered glass protector I purchased the same day that I pre-ordered my phone. I used it on my Note 8 and loved it. When I removed it prior to trading in my Note 8, the screen underneath was pristine.

I've never used screen protectors (and my screens don't get scratched), but since my (unlocked) Note10+ came with a pre-installed (film-like) screen protector, I decided to try it until it wears out. It's been seven weeks now and I still don't see any scratches or other defects on it.

That's the same for me as well. I don't use screen protectors and only minimal cases or skins. I've kept the preinstalled one on mine. I'll take it off whenever it gets worn. I've been fairly impressed with how well it's done for me.

I still have in the one that came with the phone. It's still working for me. Yeah there are some scratches on it , but I'd rather it be on the protector than on my bare phone screen.

Same. Looks like new. I didnt even realize I had one until I noticed I didn't love the feel of the screen (plastic-y). I'm dealing with it for now but will probably tear it off even before it gets dinged up. Screens on my Note 5 and Note 8 were perfect at trade-in, never had anything on them.

I got one with mine and it's still on. Got the phone August 23rd.

 

[EmanC19]

I'm debating taking it off or not. Yes I love the minor protection but the film is so thin that it has some deep scratches. It's annoying when my screen is on or dim, can really see it

Mine had to be removed to apply a tempered-glass screen protector, which then also had to be removed (cuz it stank), but the resulting bare screen responds so much better (try 99% success rate) to the FPS that I have no regrets whatsoever.

I just got my Note 10 from Swappa, and the screen protector was still attached and in perfect condition.

I ordered a tempered glass screen protector from Olixar, because I heard they were good.

If not, I have a UV glue type (Rock Film 2 pack) on my Amazon list to try after the Olixar.

I really do like that the Note finally comes with a screen protector out of the box, but I wish they wouldn't cheap out and use film.

Yes, it's super thin, but it's also super easy to scratch and stuff, especially if you use your S-pen much.

I pretty much have to have a tempered glass screen protector to use with the S-pen. I don't like the feel of the pen on the plastic screen protectors.

I had mine on for a while till I got a scratch on it. Same thing happened on my s10 plus. I ended up replacing with Phantomskinz which is self healing. It actually works when I found a thin scratch on it. Heat made it go away.

 

[Mr Segundus]

Yes, I did. I installed the Whitestone Dome Glass screen protector instead. It's much better than the preinstalled protector, which doesn't protect much from anything.

I'm sorry that I wasted $50 on Whitestone Dome Glass for my Note 10+. Honestly I swore by it for the Note 8 and Note 9 but after trying 3 different times with it on the Note 10+, IT DOES NOT WORK WITH THE FINGERPRINT SENSOR!!! No matter what their claims are, it's complete bulls***. You can't even get your fingerprint to read 0.05% of the time.

My recommendation is to go with IQSHIELD off of Amazon. It's a soft rubber screen protector that essentially heals any scratches on it if you scratch it with keys in your pocket or something. I don't know about protection against cracks or actual damage but that's why I use the GHOSTEK AtomicSlim3 case. Also super cheap and EXTREMELY protective. The two work perfectly together.

I did not. I sorely wish that I did. I usually get tempered glass screen protectors as well as Otterbox Defenders for all of my family's phones. This time, I was unable to acquire any tempered glass at the local stores. I still used the Otterbox, yet my screen has cracked on the edge due to a unforeseen accident while in my pocket as I sat in a metal framed lawn chair. The Samsung screen protector seems to be undamaged, yet the screen is ruined.

 

[Samsmome]

Both mine and my sons came with the protector also. Kept ours on. Looks flawless. To me it feels like glass. I'm sure it's not.

 

[gwells]

I still have mine on. But on the right side, there are a lot of scrapes from the case cover. I think I'm more annoyed at the cover than the screen protector. Gonna look at the forum and see recommendations

 

[DARK Vader777]

What I did was take a IQ Shields S9 plus wet application screen protector and put that on my note 10 plus.

I thought It would be short, but fact of business and to not surprise it for just right, whereas the case doesn't push up on the screen at all.
They are only 7.95.
I installed right under the camera and it reaches the bottom just enough to cover screen enough to keep from peeling back from the case being on and off.

I have been using there screen protectors for the past 3 years and once you learn the installing process, you'll be so glad to have done this.
Trust me don't knock it until you've tried it.
